Chapter 277: It's very cool without turning on the lights
Two moons hang quietly in the night sky, gazing at each other from afar, casting false light on the earth.
Qi Yan, wearing a soft bathrobe, walked out of the Murphys' luxurious bathroom and threw himself onto the soft big bed with a satisfied look on his face.
His body sank directly into the bed.
"Ah, Sbarasi!"
Qi Yan sighed: "Rhode Island, even dogs won't come back!"
Not caring at all that his hair had not been dried yet, Qi Yan fell into a deep sleep in the embrace of the soft big bed.
But while he slept easily, there were others who were carrying heavy loads and walking forward in the middle of the night.
Wearing a cloak to cover his face, Begler left his beloved cafe, walked along the alleys and finally came to the door of an inconspicuous little house.
After knocking on the door a few times with a specific melody, the door was opened and Bigler walked in without saying a word.
There is only this one table in the dim little room.
There was an oil lamp on the table. The dim flame flickered, casting the shadows of several cloaked men in front of the table on the wall.
"I say, why are we, the spies of the Queen's Voice, always so stingy? Can't we turn on the lights during meetings?"
Bigler sat down in his own seat and began to complain.
"This kind of thing doesn't matter."
The cloaked man sitting opposite Bigler spoke up: "Tell me what happened to you today."
Bigler chuckled and said nonchalantly, "What's there to say? With your methods, you must have investigated it clearly.
That woman named Arturo somehow provoked Qi Yan, and then Qi Yan caused her to shut herself in. She has been shrinking in her room and talking to herself, and she is completely unable to communicate. "
Several cloaked men were silent for a while, and finally their eyes were fixed on another cloaked man in front of the table:
"Qi Yan, why did you attack that woman named Arturo?"
The cloaked man shrugged and said:
"You ask me, who should I ask? He suddenly got excited and said he wanted to be a fortune teller. Then he said that the woman was the destined one and took the initiative to approach her and talk to her."
The topic seemed to have been killed.
The room fell silent again.
After a while, the cloaked man who asked the question first spoke again:
“Since that woman has been chosen by Qi Yan, we don’t need to think too much about it. We can send her to Murphy Manor later and let Qi Yan harm her as he pleases.
As for the people involved behind that woman, we cannot consider them. Let Qi Yan handle it himself.
But Qi Yan intends to interfere with the world's sound, and I think we must stop it."
Bigler was the first to express his support: "Yes, that thing is a taboo item left by the Witch King. Once Qi Yan gets it, no one knows what he will do with it."
"Pfft!"
A chuckle interrupted their conversation.
Everyone turned around and saw that it was the cloaked man who was showing off.
The cloaked man waved his hand at them and said:
"You are asking for trouble, who is Qi Yan?
Even if the Witch King were still alive, Qi Yan would be qualified to challenge the Witch King himself. Do you think such a strong man would care about a mere fragment of a melody left by the Witch King?"
"But the sound of the world is a taboo left by the Witch King." The cloaked man who spoke first said angrily, "Qi Yan is challenging the majesty of Her Majesty the Queen!"
"Has Her Majesty made any statement so far?"
The cloaked man, who was in a bad mood, did not give in and directly retorted.
The cloaked man who spoke first was choked and couldn't speak for a long time.
The shabby cloaked man leaned back in his chair and spread his hands.
"If you ask me, you guys are just meddling in other people's business. Qi Yan is not here to provoke Her Majesty the Queen. He just wants to find something.
We should try our best to make friends with a strong man like him, instead of creating an unexpected enemy for Letania just for the sake of face.
Besides, the Voice of the World, Count Utica, and that kid called Chalk, have been a nuisance that has troubled us for a long time. The remnants of the Witch King are still unwilling to give up and have been thinking about these things.
Even though we all know that these things are not qualified to threaten Her Majesty the Queen, we still have to work hard to stop them.
Now that they have all been chosen by Qi Yan and taken away, it’s a good thing!”
His remarks immediately made the other cloaked men excited.
Bigler was the first to express his support again: "Yes, those things are a nuisance. It's a good thing that someone is willing to help us deal with them. It would be best to lure away the remnants of the Witch King so that they don't continue to cause trouble in Leithania."
The other cloaked men collectively stared at Bigler, their eyes clearly telling him to shut up.
Bigler touched his nose and stopped jumping around.
The cloaked man who spoke first hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement:
"This is indeed the case at the moment. Before Qi Yan shows hostility, we should try to make friends with such a strong man. Giving him some gifts is also acceptable.
but……"
He changed the subject, his tone suddenly filled with solemnity: "Our Count Strolo, Lady Gertrude's behavior has a very bad influence. I think the lord of Visheheim should be replaced."
"That's right... ahem, you guys chat."
Just as Beegler was about to support him, he was scared back by the looks of the others.
The cloaked man thought for a moment and suggested:
"There's no rush for Gertrude. Qi Yan's attitude towards her is a little vague. I'll make a decision after I figure out Qi Yan's intentions.
In addition, everyone should pay attention to their own safety during this period. Although the Voice of the World is nothing to a strong man like Qi Yan, it still poses a certain threat to us.
When Qi Yan is tinkering with the Sound of the World, who knows what kind of harm will happen. We will try our best to control the impact within the Sunset Zone. Of course, if necessary, we can also give up Visheheim and give it to Qi Yan's laboratory."
boom!
Bigler suddenly slapped the table, his face gloomier than ever before:
"Murphy, what nonsense are you talking about!
There are so many people in Xizhao District, and they just give up because of your words?!"
There was silence in the room for a moment.
Murphy took off his cloak, and his face looked uncertain in the candlelight:
"Beegler, please be aware of your identity. You are a spy of the Queen's Voice. You only serve Her Majesty the Queen, not those infected people or the dignitaries of this city."
"It is also our duty to maintain the stability of Her Majesty the Queen's territory!" Begler refused to give in.
Murphy said word by word:
"To stabilize Qi Yan is to maintain stability!"
"you!"
"Okay, stop arguing."
The cloaked man who spoke first spoke up to stop the two men.
He took a deep breath and said to Bigler:
“You’ve lived in Xizhao District for too long and have feelings for it. I can understand that, but it’s just a group of infected people and an insignificant small town.
Don't let this cloud your judgment, Beegler."
These words already carry a certain warning meaning.
Bigler's face under his cloak was as gloomy as water, his fists were clenched tightly, but he had no way to refute.
"Does anyone else have anything else to say?"
The cloaked man who spoke first glanced at everyone in the room. Seeing that no one spoke, he nodded, stood up and walked towards the door.
The others also left their seats, except for Bigler and Murphy, who remained in their seats without taking any action.
When everyone was gone, Murphy stared at Bigler and said softly:
“Control your emotions. I’m the person in charge of Dosores. After Qi Yan’s matter is over, I have to hurry back.
Don’t let you affect my trip.”
"Haha, what you want to say is, don't let a group of infected people cause you to lose this year's bonus."
Begler's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
"No, I am not loyal to money, I am only loyal to Her Majesty the Queen."
Murphy stood up, opened the door and left, leaving only one last piece of advice:
"You too, you must."
