The appearance of the Speaker of the Principality may be a very good and powerful thing for ordinary free world players, but for Duan Qing, it is not that big a deal. This was not only because he was used to big scenes, but also because he had foreseen it - ever since he learned that the woman Christine had been looking for the guy in front of him for some reason, he knew that sooner or later it would happen. One day.
But...he is also looking forward to meeting the other party. He also has a lot of questions that he wants to find out for the other party.
"Looks pretty good."
Not knowing what the other party's judgment standards were, Pamir nodded and said something like this, then turned around and asked: "The so-called misunderstanding...are these adventurers in front of you?"
"Yes, yes." Although he was a little reluctant, Tusker nodded and replied: "They broke into my home today, ruined my banquet, and..."
"Just because of this theft, you are going to the Tafa Room?" Pamir frowned: "It's not like you don't know the temper of that old man Swain..."
"These people insist that they did not do it, Your Excellency." Ferriston intervened at the right time: "And Your Excellency Tusker once accused them of wanting to launch a rebellion in the name of losing important intelligence."
Then Pamir's eyes turned back. The next moment, Mengzhu jumped up in his sight: "We don't know anything! We just..."
"Dream Bamboo."
An outstretched hand blocked her front - Duan Qing, who was smiling, interrupted the little girl's words, and then looked around at everyone present: "Now that I think about it... this matter has been vague from the beginning. There’s something wrong with the ground.”
He looked at Tusker's face, and then at the crowd who were still watching: "As the current party involved, we'd better try not to make the matter bigger..."
He looked at Mengzhu, who was also looking at him with confused eyes: "Have we... fallen into a trap?"
"God knows... I don't know anyway." Duan Qing's words became casual: "After all, you can't doubt others at will... Mr. Speaker."
He turned around and looked at the Speaker of the Principality, whose black hair was combed meticulously, as if it had been gelled, and bowed slightly again: "I made you laugh, but... if there is a suitable place where we can tell the truth clearly. , which is a good thing for everyone here.”
"We will not let the misunderstanding expand."
In the silent atmosphere, the black-haired speaker stood there quietly. He did not speak for a long time, and just stared at Duan Qing with the others, as if he was using all his energy to look at the man in front of him. A transparent one. The tall and thin man in a jacket adjusted his clothes and wanted to say something more, but the speaker raised his hand to stop him.
"He... just arrived here, right?" Pamir pointed at Duan Qing and asked. Tusker, who was sitting on pins and needles, was about to answer when a man in black uniforms standing behind the speaker quickly walked out: "Yes, sir."
"Where's the time?"
"This morning, 7:29, just south of Tania, at the gate of Saos."
"Well, and then it ended up like this in the afternoon?"
Although the casual finger in the air was pointed at Duan Qing, no one present answered his question immediately - Tusker opened his mouth, but did not say a word, while Ferriston He looked at the other party with a smile. The attendant who had previously answered the speaker's question lowered his head quietly, as if he had no intention of answering such a subjective question. He only laughed at Hongchen who had not spoken for a long time, and was a little unclear. murmured something softly.
"What more can you say to these people in the court? We are waiting for the men of the world... Ouch!"
"Shut up." Mengzhu whispered, and then showed a flower-like smile to Pamir who looked over: "Hehehehe..."
"hehe."
While Duan Qing was covering his face, the Speaker also smiled, and then asked Tasker again: "You said that your family lost important documents, and it also involved confidentiality... Is this true?"
"Yes, yes." Tusker nodded hurriedly.
"Did they take it?"
"Of course it's them..." Looking at Pamir's eyes, Tusker swallowed back what he had blurted out: "I mean, they did invade my mansion..."
"What exactly?"
"ah?"
"The contents of the file."
"Well..." Beard hesitated for a while: "These things involve... uh, I mean, can we change places..."
"No need." Pamir looked at Duan Qing, then raised his hand: "If it is to deliberately endanger the security of the principality... he has no such motive."
"Ah? What the Speaker means..."
"He is innocent." Ignoring the increasingly surprised looks around him, Pamir pointed to the other two people: "...Okay, there are two more of them."
"I can guarantee that."
Tasker's expression froze: "What...what? But..."
"If you have any conclusive evidence in the future, you can come to me and I will personally seek justice for you." Pamir waved his hand nonchalantly: "Although I think it is unlikely."
"what why?"
"Confidential." The Speaker blocked all the intersections with two words, and then glanced at Duan Qing: "Sir, Mr. Freestone, I have something I want to discuss with you. Do you have time? Of course, you can choose the location. .”
"If this matter ends here...then of course I have time." Felicity replied with a smile: "A new store opened on the Avenue des Arre recently, and it seems to be very good..."
"Okay, that's where it is." Pamir nodded, and then took the lead in walking towards the east: "The store recommended by Ferriston is still worth a visit..."
"Sir Speaker!"
Just when everyone was in a state of confusion, behind the bearded man, a player suddenly shouted: "You can't trust that person easily! They just had an affair with Connelly this morning..."
"Chen Yu Zang Yue!"
A majestic shout interrupted his next words - Tusker wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at the people who turned around in front of him with an ugly expression: "It's okay, it's okay, he just still has some... doubts ,a ha ha ha……"
"oh?"
"Ah! That, that..." Tasker waved his hands: "We will investigate this matter carefully."
Pamir looked at the other party steadily. When the other party's newly polished forehead started to shed sweat again, he pointed at Duan Qing and said, "You three."
"Come with me."
Wow——
The crowd of players watching secretly burst out in uncontrollable cheers: "Wow..."
"The Speaker...the Speaker wants to meet the player!"
"No one from Jianghu was received in the end, right? What are the backgrounds of these people..."
"Mao's background! Didn't you hear? I was originally going to see that Felicity Stone, and happened to come across this incident..."
"How come I'm not so lucky!"
"If you dare to commit such a thing, you might also..."
Chenyu Canyue could no longer hear the messy whispers - he just looked at Duan Qing, who was leading the other two people, gradually following behind the speaker's team, and shook his hands little by little. The next moment, the man in his field of vision looked back at him, then pointed in front of him, showing him a helpless expression.
"asshole!"
The muscles on his face twisted, he growled, and then walked to Tasker's side: "Sir, why don't you explain the situation to the Speaker? Don't you still believe us..."
"Do you think Pamir doesn't know?"
The bearded uncle stood with his hands on his hips, still looking at the direction they were leaving: "I'm afraid the information and whereabouts of these guys have long been on the list of the 'Fourth Affairs Office'."
"What? That one specializes in..."
"Shh...!"
Tasker hurriedly hissed and warned the other party with his eyes: "This time, we made a mistake."
"Sorry, our intelligence was insufficient and we underestimated Ferriston's energy and determination..."
"No." Tasker said suddenly, "That's not the case."
He raised his cane in front of him, but the focus of his eyes was on an unknown place. It was a unique sign of a person recalling and thinking: "That Pamir... I have thought about it a long time ago."
"Even if we didn't do anything, he... would probably keep that person."
"Wha...what?"
Tasker's eyes revealed a light that was completely different from his image: "You adventurers don't know... our Lord Speaker has not been exposed for a long time..."
"Such a smile."
***********************
"Then, I'll leave this matter to you... No problem, right?"
"It is an honor for me to contribute my own strength to the principality."
The Blue Island Coffee Shop on Yare Street is the place recommended by Freestone, the president of the Adventurers Association. However, unlike the situation in the real world, in the free world, except for drinks that are universally used around the world, such as wine, there are no such things as tea and coffee. In addition to ordinary water, what the indigenous people in the free world usually drink are special drinks produced in each region. However, they must have never heard of the names of food and drink in the real world.
Therefore, the store in front of Duan Qing is naturally run by players.
"It's really surprising." This was Duan Qing's comment after tasting the so-called coffee here: "In every sense of the word."
"I just went inside to inquire. The player store manager said... they found a wild bean in the wild, which has ingredients very similar to coffee." Mengzhu on the side whispered: "Then I came up with this idea. .”
"Interesting." Looking at the two people surrounded by followers not far away who were still talking about something, Duan Qing said with some emotion: "It seems that there are still many things in this world waiting to be discovered."
"Yes, yes, maybe if we search carefully, we can find a substitute for tea or something..."
"Then open a store? Then make money? Is this the trick?"
"Hey hey hey..."
"How long do we have to wait here?" Xiao Hongchen looked at the ceiling boredly: "They have been chatting for almost half an hour... Oops."
"Half an hour is not a long time, right? Just wait patiently!" His answer was a shudder.
"Okay, okay, he has been beaten enough today." Duan Qing said with a smile: "Instead of complaining about waiting, it is better to take a good look at the decorations here. Look at this store, it is still well done. It's very nice, these warm-colored walls, this gorgeous chandelier, this neat wooden floor, and uniquely shaped tables and chairs. If we invite a violin band over, wow..."
"Creating a quiet corner in a troubled world is the advertising slogan of this store." The little girl patted the table and pointed to the door: "At first glance, the store manager is an experienced guy..."
"Many players have already penetrated into NPCs. This is a good thing. For example, that Cabin Castle... Huh?"
A dark figure suddenly appeared in front of them - Duan Qing, who was speaking, looked up in shock, only to see one of the speaker's entourage. He glanced at the faces of several people, as if confirming something, and then stepped aside and motioned to the other side.
On the table over there, a man with meticulously combed hair sat quietly in one corner, and the president of the Adventurers Association had disappeared.
"Why, let us go..."
Duan Qing made sure of the person in front of him, who nodded, but then added: "Only one person can pass."
"Hey, we have all passed the inspection..."
"Shh...ah hahaha, let's discuss it."
There was a slight commotion among the people at the table, accompanied by the sounds of slaps and twisting due to secret fighting. After a while, Duan Qing's figure appeared at the table: "Hello, It's an honour……"
"It's really you."
Pamir looked up at him: "That girl is the nominal leader, but you... are the actual leader of your adventure group, right?"
"Well……"
Hiding his scratched arm behind his back, Duan Qing nodded with twitching corners of his mouth: "Ah ha ha ha, if you think so..."
"Then stop talking."
After putting away the few pages in front of him, Pamir looked at Duan Qing and said, "I have been paying attention to you."
"You should have heard that from Connelly."
It was close to ten o'clock in the evening, and there were already few customers in the small shop, but Pamir's appearance made the place filled with tranquility. In the swaying lights, Duan Qing looked at the man who meticulously combed his black hair, and his eyes gradually became serious: "You...oh no, you..."
"Don't be so restrictive. Judging from the things you have done in the past, these simple rules should not be in your eyes."
Pamir looked at Duan Qing's face, and then said harmoniously: "Me too."
So Duan Qing looked at the other person for a while, and then nodded: "Is that so? Then I will...believe you once."
"good."
Finally changing the name of himself, the middle-aged man nodded with some satisfaction: "So... you should have a lot of questions to ask. Where should we start talking? Well... let's start talking about today's events. "
"I only have one thing to say about today's matter - don't take it to heart."
Pamir handed the page in his hand to a follower behind him, and then stretched out his hand: "If I am not mistaken, Tasker and his noble faction want to take advantage of this incident. , causing some trouble for the civilian faction."
"You... just happened to meet the opportunity."
"You know...everything?"
"No, how can I know everything." Taking another page handed over by his entourage, Pamir flipped through it casually: "I just judged it based on the existing intelligence."
He closed the new pages and held out his hand.
"Um?"
Duan Qing took those things with some surprise. Duan Qing understood the meaning in the other person's eyes, and then started to look through them on the spot. But the first line of those pages had already shocked him.
"Information all around: About Laska Mashat."
