Just when Bulwer was about to fall asleep, someone suddenly knocked on the office door.
"Dong dong..." These two gentle taps seemed to have penetrated into my heart, shaking all my limbs and bones.
On the sofa, he suddenly opened his eyes. .九九^九)xs(.^m There was silence all around. In a daze, one almost thought that the noise they just heard was just an illusion.
But he clearly understood that it was not. This period of silence was just the visitor waiting for his response out of politeness.
He didn't keep his uninvited guests waiting long. Although the door was locked from the inside, he still replied naturally: "Please come in." As his voice fell, a shadow deeper than the night poured in from the gap in the door.
Then, a figure stepped out of the shadows. Even though it was not the first time they met, Bulwer was still frightened by such unpredictable magic spells.
——I couldn’t even detect the other party’s magical properties. At this second, a somewhat absurd idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
It seems to be somewhat similar to the magic of darkness...
"Miss Echos, nice to meet you." Out of respect for the strong, he stood up. Wayne looked around at the scene in the office calmly.
There are not many things stored in the desk and cabinet, and the furnishings are all a few grades lower than those of the City Guard Headquarters Building. It has an old feeling that it has just been unearthed from the warehouse.
He coughed twice,
"Don't call me 'Miss', just call me 'Your Excellency'." Bulwer was puzzled by his request.
However, it is normal for strong men to have some unique quirks. So he changed his tune.
"Your Excellency Ecos, why are you here this time?" Since the last hasty farewell, he has not received any reports about Ecos.
Such a big person seems to have disappeared from the world. He very much doubted whether Miss Echos had concealed her true appearance and had been hiding in the royal capital for a long time.
Otherwise, there would be no trace of a person with such beauty and strength in the outside world.
Wayne didn't answer his question. He walked carelessly to the side and sat down, put one leg on the other, and casually greeted: "What are you still standing for? Sit down." It was as if he was entertaining guests.
Bulwer's whole body was tense, his expression was alert, and he looked very wary. But under the friendly behavior of Ecos, he gradually let down his guard.
He didn't want to push such people to the opposite side unless necessary.
"I heard that Lord Bulwer is preparing for a big move recently?" Echos asked. Bulwer's mind froze.
——She clearly didn’t leak it before, why did she know it so quickly? ! At this time, it was only a short while before he dismissed the meeting.
Could it be because of her and His Majesty the King... No, it's impossible. If it was what I suspected, I was afraid that when I discovered myself and Norman, I could have executed these traitors on the spot.
Seeing the way his pupils focused and his eyes flickered, Wayne knew that he was probably thinking about something outrageous.
But he had no intention of explaining, and just a little clarification led the topic to another direction.
"How far is the investigation into Norman Laird?" Bulwer was a little surprised when he suddenly mentioned another unrelated matter.
But he still confessed: "Norman and the others have left the royal capital. Now all the clues are interrupted. I believe that the joint investigation team will close the case soon." Manpower drawn from different departments cannot be used up all the time. On the matter of results.
There are actually quite a few cases like this that go unsolved, and in the end they just make the files in the archives a little thicker.
Wayne pondered for a while and asked: "According to what he said, everything he did was just for revenge. Didn't he have the idea of reviving the country?" Now the hometown of the Principality of Millistan has turned into a rebellion. The army's base camp.
However, the factions in the rebel army are not just the remnants of the Principality of Millistan. After careful analysis, it can be easily discovered that their personnel composition is very chaotic.
Among them are Enroth people who are dissatisfied with the aristocratic system, exiles recruited from abroad, and even some powerful road bandits.
The only thing that can bring them together is their common resistance to the brutal rule of the Kingdom of Saint Enros.
At present, the Kingdom of Saint Enroth is still strong, so it largely covers up their own shortcomings.
Under the pressure of a powerful external enemy, all internal dissent must give way to the survival prerequisite of "security".
But what about after that? Different people have different opinions. For Norman Laird, if he wants to restore the glory of the Laird family, is there any more attractive bait than rebuilding the country?
Yes - it's a bait. The decoy that separated him from the rest of the rebels. In order to provide development opportunities for civilians, Wayne can help push the situation behind the scenes.
However, he would never let the Laird family, who had a blood feud with the Wench family, continue to stir up trouble.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Frankly speaking, if he were Norman Laird, he would definitely kill every one of the Winche family members he met.
But he is Wayne. If someone wanted to kill Chris, he would have no choice but to strike first.
Understanding is understanding, pity is pity, but he will never hurt his family because of these feelings of compassion.
Hearing this, Bulwer was slightly startled.
"He didn't say he hoped to re-establish the country. On this point, I believe him." Wayne smiled lightly.
It seems that Bulwer and Norman's personal relationship is closer than imagined. only,
General words like "believe" can convince yourself, but not others, Lord Bulwer.
He said no more. If this grudge can be resolved in the future, everything will be fine. But if they refuse to let go of their grudges... then they have no choice but to ask them to accept the sanctions from the protagonist group.
Speaking of the Principality of Millistan, Bulwer's eyes darkened slightly.
"Actually, Grand Duke Laird is a very good person." He sighed,
"If he were still in power, life in the Southwest Province would be many times better now." Wayne sneered: "Didn't he die in the Battle of Fog Moon? You have never met him. From the rumors It's not a good habit to get to know someone." Bulwer, however, shook his head and revealed a secret that shocked even him.
"——Thirty-five years ago, Grand Duke Laird once concealed his identity and studied at Qingxi Academy, and he and King George I were considered classmates and friends."
"At that time, his name was Monroe." (Search on Baidu on mobile for [My Sister is a Villainous Daughter + New Book] Click to read on mobile phone to turn pages, eye protection, power saving, data saving function)
