"A challenge to the renegade brave?"
In the simple wooden conference room, Zhou Li, who was wearing a mask, was sitting upright with his legs crossed. Heishu stood next to him in a very standard posture, looking like a butler. Eluma and Azi gathered in front of them, reading the title of the silver-edged scroll on the table in unison with faces full of surprise.
"Someone challenges you?!!"
Eluma pointed to the scroll engraved with the scale crest and said incredulously: "Why does he know you are a hero? Someone leaked the secret?"
"if not?"
Zhou Li sneered, put down his legs, crossed his hands on his chin and said sadly: "In the past half month, no one has seen my true identity. Even if I need to show up in public, I will take off the clothes that are exclusive to the brave." And I attended the meeting wearing a mask, so there is only a possibility that my identity was leaked."
Hearing this, Ah Zi had already begun to frown slightly. Only four people on the field knew Zhou Li's identity as a hero. Heishu is more loyal to Zhou Li than a dog, and he has little contact with the outside world. As for Eluma, judging from the daily communication and contact between the two, the bond between the two is very terrifying, and can even surpass the relationship between herself and Linghai, so the possibility of Eluma revealing the identity of the hero is low. Outrageous.
Oh ho, I am the biggest suspect.
But the problem is that I didn’t leak it either.
It's broken, something is terribly wrong.
Suddenly, countless possibilities emerged in Ah Zi's mind. Someone secretly investigated Zhou Li's identity and used a conspiracy to drive a wedge between him and A'Zi. Or maybe the heroes' enemies have already noticed Zhou Li's identity and have already started a plan against Zhou Li. The ones who would be most harmed by these possibilities were not Zhou Li and his partners, but the Zisha Chamber of Commerce who had just joined the group and had flaws all over their body.
Azi raised her head, and the conference room was already covered with dark clouds. Zhou Li was wearing a mask and couldn't see his expression clearly, but looking at his slightly twitching muscles, he must be extremely angry. Eluma on the side lowered her head with a thoughtful look on her face. From time to time she raised her head to glance at herself and Zhou Li. She must have begun to doubt herself and was ready to wait for Zhou Li to give orders.
The seeds of distrust have been planted in everyone's hearts, and now they must take action themselves. Once this kind of atmosphere spreads, even if she is finally cleared of suspicion, a big gap will appear between her and Zhou Li's group!
You must clarify it immediately, even if you lose a certain amount of profits, you must quickly clear yourself of suspicion!
"no…"
Before Ah Zi could open her mouth to clarify, Eluma suddenly stood up and pointed at Zhou Li and said:
"It's your fault again!"
"Why?"
Azi was stunned. Then, a burst of hearty and easy-going laughter sounded from the side. Azi took a closer look and saw that it was Zhou Li laughing for no reason.
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha."
Looking at Zhou Li who was laughing wildly, Ah Zi had changed from the decisive mentality of a strong man to cut off his wrist, to one with question marks on his face.
What are these two doing?
"Sure enough, it's you again!"
Eluma put her hands on her hips and said to Zhou Li angrily: "Can you please stop showing off next time! It's very scary, do you understand?!"
"Huh?" Ah Zi made a voice with a dull expression on her face, "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Zhou Li betrayed Zhou Li?
Why are you rebelling, Your Highness?
"Why didn't someone else betray us?" Zhou Li looked at Eluma, the corner of his mouth under the mask curved, "I was very sad to doubt me for the first time."
"snort."
Eluma snorted coldly, and a rare look of disdain appeared on her face that always had a gentle smile. "If someone really betrayed you, there is no way you would summon us to expose such a thing in person."
"Such aboveboard behavior is simply not your style."
Eluma slapped the table, pointed at Zhou Li with one finger, and said righteously: "You only show hypocrisy on the surface to make others relax their vigilance. Secretly, you poison, set cold arrows, set traps, and deliberately put food filled with laxatives when you eat. Toast the other person with wine, throw a bomb when someone else is in the toilet, shoot a magic video and play it non-stop for 24 hours, and use your identity as a brave man to report to the church that this person has colluded with the void monster, and solve all the troubles directly!"
"This is you!!!"
After listening, Azi shuddered directly. At this moment, she understood something deeply.
Going against Zhou Li and using your connections to fight for the death penalty should be the best outcome.
"You finally learned to be smart."
After hearing Eluma's words, Zhou Li looked at her and said kindly, "It's not in vain that I take you with me as my teacher. I will guide you day and night so that you can learn my wisdom."
Eluma was startled when she heard this, and then sighed helplessly. She stood up, walked to Ah Zi on the side, hugged her petite body, reached out her hand and gently rubbed Ah Zi's hair, and said to her softly:
"I'm really sorry, Ah Zi, for scaring you. Zhou Li always has such indirect convulsions. I'm really sorry. I apologize to you on behalf of Zhou Li."
"Ah?" Ah Zi exclaimed, but when she saw Eluma's eyes as clear as lakes and her gentle and pitiful face, most of her panic and doubts disappeared immediately. She nodded and said softly:
"It's okay, Sister Eluma." Azi shook her head and returned to her usual calm demeanor, "Mr. Zhou Li didn't say it was me who leaked the secret, it was just an ordinary scammer. I shouldn't take it too seriously. .”
"but."
AhZi puffed up her cheeks and said angrily to Zhou Li: "I will be scared if I am suddenly startled! Mr. Zhou Li!"
"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's indeed my problem."
Zhou Li waved his hand and said with a smile: "This time it is indeed my plan. I just thought of an interesting novel plot and suddenly had a convulsion. It is indeed too much to scare Miss Azi, so..."
Zhou Li suddenly stopped talking, and then under Ah Zi's surprised gaze, he took off the mask that had never been removed in front of others, revealing his true face.
"I hope to establish a long-term friendship with the Zisha Chamber of Commerce, so I should no longer disguise myself to Miss Azi."
Black hair, dark eyes, and a handsome face with a calm face. What surprised Ah Zi the most was not Zhou Li Dongguo's face, but his youth.
Among the brave men of all ages, even the youngest Emperor Chong was selected by the gods when he advanced to gold at around forty years old. And if there is nothing wrong with Ah Zi’s eyes——
This brave man is just a boy!
