It is rare for relatives to get together. Unfortunately, the special circumstances do not allow for a long period of reminiscing, and only time for lunch can be spared.
After cleaning the pots and pans, Andy took Xiaoyue and Floya to explore the situation in the village under the cover of "taking my niece to see the changes in my hometown."
Having lived here for many years and being the most skilled carpenter here, Andy is very popular and greets everyone he meets.
Ondy has a grumpy but good-natured image to the outside world. Seeing that he was smiling for the first time today and his words became kinder. The villagers quickly noticed the "variable" standing next to him.
Andy was also very generous, happily introducing his niece to everyone who asked.
Before it gets dark, almost everyone in the village knows that Ondy's niece is back. Several young men who had learned carpentry under Andy came over because of their reputation. They fell in love with Xiaoyue and Floya at the first sight, which made old Andy change back to his usual appearance and cursed several apprentices. Drive away.
On the surface, it seems that there is a family reunion in the village, which adds to the popularity of the village and makes it lively invisibly.
However, in Froya's senses, this kind of "liveliness" is not a good thing.
Ever since I left Andy's house, my sight of the source has never been interrupted.
This means they are under constant surveillance, and the village's enemies still remain suspicious of them.
There was curiosity about the surrounding environment on Flora's face. When no one was around, she leaned into Xiaoyue's ear and said words that had nothing to do with her expression: "How about another time? We have been stared at by them and we can't do anything. No, we can’t just alert the snake, right?”
Just listening to the second half of Floya's sentence, she seemed to be looking forward to it?
Do you want to kill through the village...
Xiaoyue turned her head sideways, with a nostalgic smile on her face, and her words were equally inappropriate: "No, it's a big deal to give up halfway. If we don't have a suitable reason to stop our current behavior, returning rashly will only make them more suspicious. "
"Then, just find the target and then run out?" Froya's words were a little more joyful.
Andy felt a cold sweat on his forehead when he heard this, and the disguised expression on his face almost failed.
Is this girl okay...?
Ang Di looked at Xiao Yue and said, "Oh, I didn't notice that we have been wandering around for so long. It's almost getting dark. Are you two girls tired?"
If it doesn't work, let's withdraw today and make plans later.
After an afternoon of exploration, Xiaoyue and the others had memorized the village's terrain and the general distribution of enemies, and the results were quite good. If you want to go further, you have to go to the area that was deliberately avoided today to avoid arousing suspicion.
Whether the risks and rewards are equal depends on how the enemy currently views the three of them.
If they are just under routine surveillance, then even if they go to an area that is heavily monitored by the enemy, or even if they are lucky enough to meet the target, it will not have any impact on the follow-up actions. In other words, if it comes true, it will only be counted as an extra gain for them, and it will be of great help to subsequent plans.
But if one of their previous actions aroused the enemy's suspicion, then doing so may cause the enemy to overreact, causing incalculable consequences!
Xiao Yue stopped when she heard Ang Di's words.
She looked back at Floya's disguised face, smiled, shook her head, and said to Andy, "It's okay. Uncle Andy, she and I are both businessmen, and we have to travel to various places, so we are not so delicate. . I want to go around again, but this place in my memory has become very blurry..."
Go ahead with no additional risk.
Andy nodded and laughed a few times: "She is indeed my niece! Hey! It's normal to not remember clearly. I have lived here for so long that I almost forgot what it was like a few years ago, let alone you. Changes It’s too big after all! Haha! Come on, I’ll take you to the village chief’s place and say hello to the old boy!”
"Do you still know the village chief?" Floya was curious.
"We, the first villagers who came back, all know the village chief. He was chosen by us. We usually have a good relationship." Andy paused and continued, "Let me tell you, this old boy is not very lucky. Very good!"
"The son he gave birth to is smart. He is already a teacher in the town at a young age! Not only that, he also has a nephew who is also very capable. He performed well when he was studying. After graduation, he joined He joined a famous performing arts troupe as an actor, and when he had a play, the whole village went to watch it!"
Specifically mentioning the village chief's nephew?
Is it the target?
Froya and Xiaoyue looked at each other, and Xiaoyue nodded.
Froya's voice increased a bit, highlighting her curiosity: "What kind of show is it?"
"It's "Unification of the Empire". It tells the story of the negotiations before unification. The village chief's nephew plays the role of the king of our empire!"
"Oh, it seems like his acting skills are really good!" Floya was really surprised.
After the unification of the empire, literary and artistic activities flourished. As long as the conditions were not particularly poor, anyone would be familiar with literary and artistic works. There are naturally no shortage of works related to Prince Regent Lecco.
Out of respect for Lecco, when it comes to his works, as long as they are performed in public, both the audience and the author have very strict requirements for the work itself, and the requirements for the actors' acting skills are also extremely strict.
It can be said that any actor who has played Lecco in a certain work either already has considerable strength, or has huge potential that has been initially revealed. In short, his subsequent career will definitely be bright. .
"It's not bad. I've seen it too, but unfortunately the level of restoration is still too low." Andy sighed sincerely.
His sigh was basically the sentiment of all the audience: No matter how outstanding the actor is, they cannot fully interpret the king's style.
"But it's not his fault... I'm telling you, since then, the old village chief has regarded this nephew as more important than his own son, and has even refused to let others see him, haha!" Andy laughed, " We brothers sometimes drink and chat, and we even joke, this is the yellow girl of that family!"
Xiaoyue and Floya laughed at the right moment.
Andy said regretfully: "I would like you to see it too, but it depends on fate. This old boy is stubborn!"
"It's okay, don't force it."
"Actually, we have watched many similar dramas..."
Shinozuki and Froya pretended to be uninterested.
The three of them walked towards the center of the village while chatting.
The closer you get, the more eyes you can feel from the dark.
Some are villagers who appear openly and openly within the field of vision, and some are plants or lifeless buildings at first sight... It seems that in order to monitor the target, the enemy uses really many people!
In this case, barging in to save people has become an absolutely non-option.
Even if Shinozuki and Froya worked together and managed to escape to a safe place with their target, it would be impossible if they took Andy with them.
Acting rashly may also harm the migratory birds in the town, so you can only act with caution.
"Huh..." Feeling the pressure growing, Froya breathed out.
To outsiders, she was just tired from walking.
In order to perfectly cover up the small leak of exhalation, Froya approached Xiaoyue, pretended to complain, and asked her doubts in a low voice: "Why do you think there is no additional risk?"
Xiaoyue glanced at her, stretched out her index finger and poked her forehead: "Because of your vanity."
Froya covered her forehead and took a while to figure it out.
She pouted, touching her face, which was completely different from before but still beautiful, and said angrily: "Is it wrong for girls to love beauty?!"
