Hearing the words of the person outside the door, Anduin almost bit his tongue.
Because when perception is turned on, a high level of concentration is required, and Anduin, who is not yet a paladin, does not have a high level of concentration.
At this moment, it only took one more step to find Li Yi hiding in the corner, but he was interrupted by this moment.
Although the two of them revealed their identities, he didn't remember how many people knew where he lived.
The man outside the door revealed his identity with just one sentence, and the title he used was His Royal Highness...
This is very interesting.
Who is the one?
The two made eye contact.
In the end, he decided not to worry about the hidden person who might appear in the house for the time being, and deal with the visiting guest first.
They also saw this person hiding in the dark. It was obvious that the two of them spoke openly to each other, just to test each other's attitude and induce the other party to take action.
They have their own considerations for doing this. If the other party dares to take action, then they will try to make as much noise as possible. Anyway, Uncle Fotagon hasn't gone far yet, so he should have time and won't encounter any danger.
It would be easier if the other party did not dare to take action. This only shows one problem: the other party is not strong enough.
Maybe they were just intelligence officers who came to investigate. If that's the case, then there wouldn't be much of a threat.
Let’s deal with the visitors outside the door first.
"Here you go, wait a minute." The two of them cooperated very well. They quickly cleaned up some of the previous preparations, tidied them up a little, and then opened the door.
"What's the matter?" Anduin said politely to the visitors outside the door with a polite smile.
He was an ordinary person who looked unremarkable, the kind of person who would be hard to spot if thrown into a crowd.
you do not know? What do the two young knights think of the people outside the door? However, he could tell the other party's identity at a glance.
With his calloused hands and his eyes inadvertently looking at the interior of the room, including the quick look at the two people, the identity of this visitor was already apparent.
This guy is not a lurker here to gather information. They are undercover agents of hostile forces.
However, Li Yi was slightly surprised by what the other party said.
"I am the butler of Lord Chanos. This time I came under the orders of Lord Chanos. I have been ordered to invite His Highness to have dinner. What do you think of His Highness?"
"Oh, the Chanos you're talking about is..."
To be honest, Anduyin didn't have any impression of this name, as can be imagined. This was not any of the old ministers left by his father, otherwise he would not have even the slightest impression.
The man didn't feel any embarrassment at His Highness the Prince's words. He seemed to have expected this, and just bowed Wanzhou's waist deeper and said.
"Lord Chanos is the current financial officer of Stormwind City. He is responsible for all financial expenditures and income in the territory of Stormwind City. He will also be your most loyal subordinate. Oh, the last sentence was specially ordered by Lord Chanos. of."
"Oh?" Anduin was a little surprised. He couldn't help but think of a chubby official who always had a smile among the officials he met before. He seemed to remember the name of the official who had introduced himself. .
Could it be him?
But why did he invite me to the banquet at this time?
Anduin would not be so stupid as to think that the other party was really here to show his loyalty.
There might be other frustrated officials who would take the opportunity to please him, but it would definitely not be the financial officer.
Although he is young, Anduin is no ordinary child. His experiences as a child and his years of experience have already made him very mature, although he is still kind-hearted.
But kindness is not stupidity.
"Okay, I understand. Go back and tell your adults that I will be there later."
When the housekeeper outside the door heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly restored his original smile, and bowed politely as before.
"Okay, if you don't mind, Your Highness, I've arranged a carriage, and that'll do..."
"No, I'll go by myself later."
Anduin interrupted him directly, and after finishing speaking, he closed the door directly.
The man outside the door who claimed to be Chanos's butler faced the closed door and felt like he had been rejected. Although the other party's agreement was beyond his expectation, the other party's attitude was not friendly, and he never even said it was friendly. Looking over in his eyes, the other party clearly had a hint of hostility.
snort! Since you are willing to go, that's the best thing. Anyway, the "big meal" arranged will be delivered sooner or later.
As for the fat man... forget it, they were the ones who proposed it anyway, I just need to complete the task and get the money.
Not only was there no anger on the man's face, but a strange smile appeared on his face. After standing for a while, he turned around and left slowly.
At this time, Alsace in the room, who had witnessed the whole process, couldn't help but ask.
"Why did you agree to him? This is obviously a conspiracy. I don't know where Uncle Fordagon has gone now!"
He really couldn't figure it out. During the previous brief interview, he still remembered that the fat man named Chanos used various excuses and reasons to make things difficult for Anduin. It was obvious that he was hostile, although he didn't know this. Where did this hostility come from? It was probably because they were afraid that Anduin would liquidate them after he was officially crowned. Now that this was the case, Arthas couldn't figure out why Anduin would agree to go to the banquet.
Who knew that Anduin not only failed to answer the doubts in his heart, but instead asked a meaningless question.
"Did you hear a carriage nearby just now?"
"Huh? What did you say?"
"I asked you if you heard the carriage just now." Anduin repeated it tirelessly.
"Well, I didn't hear it. There shouldn't be any." Although he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, Alsace still chose to answer.
"You didn't hear it either, which means there is no prepared carriage at all. In other words, that person most likely has nothing to do with Chanos at all. The reason why the other party reported this name is only two reasons. One possibility is to use a real name to make me believe in this invitation, and then do something to me during the banquet, or during the banquet. If something happens to me, then all the final evidence will point to the financial officer. Chanos.”
"What are you talking about? What's another possibility?" Alsace was confused, but he still asked.
"This is what I find strange. Another possibility is to assume that this person has nothing to do with Chanos. The reason why he said this is because he was not sure that he could deceive me by making up a name, so he simply used one A real person, this person happened to be someone I didn't deal with before, so I borrowed such a person. I guess, according to his own assumptions, I will definitely not attend the banquet."
