Chapter 2469 Responding to Circumstances

The night was getting thick, and the sky, earth, and ocean were all shrouded in hazy darkness. It was difficult to distinguish left and right, and things could not be distinguished.

It was late at night, and a heavy sleepiness surrounded everyone, like a clinging little goblin, unable to escape or escape. Even the guards on guard at the door would make peace from time to time, rub their tired eyes, and move their hands and feet. Dispel the lingering sleepiness.

The middle of the night is when human beings are most relaxed and at their lowest vigilance. Of course, except for some special trainers, such as assassins, oh, by the way, you must also remember to eliminate some people with ulterior motives, such as me. .

As an elder, I can enter and leave the palace freely without any restrictions, and I can also travel freely in the palace without worrying about being questioned.

But the above situation is limited to myself. If there are a few more unidentified guys around me, even I will inevitably be questioned.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I chose to sneak into the palace at night.

But don't get me wrong, I don't have any evil intentions. It was the two assassins who were proficient in disguise during the day that attracted my curiosity. If I can't get to the bottom of it, I will have trouble sleeping and eating.

Although the Fairy Queen already knows that I have many capable people under my command who are proficient in intelligence gathering, corpse identification, assassination and other tasks, she knows it, and neither of us has revealed it, which means that stealing corpses cannot be done in the open. On the surface, it must be done quietly.

As a last resort, he had to put on his night clothes, climb over the wall and cross the courtyard, squat in the corner to avoid the guards, and finally arrived at the morgue successfully after a bumpy journey, hiding and hiding.

However, here comes the problem. There are still two guards guarding the door of the morgue. They look very energetic, their eyes are wide open, their weapons are held tightly, and they show no signs of drowsiness.

This is difficult to handle. You can't kill them just for the sake of stealing. These are loyal people who fulfill their duties. Look at the angry guards guarding the outer gate. They are in two different states. Such dedicated people It's okay if you don't reward the dedicated guard. Let me kill him because of personal matters. Sorry, I can't do it.

The assassins are clinging to the wall, waiting for my orders. They have no sense of good or evil. They can kill them calmly, whether they are good people or extremely evil people.

In their eyes, obedience comes first, tasks come second, and the rest doesn't matter.

I'm sure that one second I ordered to get rid of the two guards, and the next second they would take action and kill them silently in the shortest possible time.

Faced with this situation, I must be as cautious as possible. No body language can be used, and no jokes can be made. Human lives are at stake, so I have to do this.

After meditating for a moment, I looked at the night sky again. The moon was already high in the sky and it was past twelve o'clock. If I didn't take action, my actions tomorrow might be affected.

Thinking of this, I suddenly became depressed and sighed heavily.

"who!"

A low drink came from the mouth of one of the guards. At the same time, the sharp sword was unsheathed, shining with cold light, like a silver snake spitting out a message under the night sky.

The assassins all took out their daggers and looked at me at the same time, waiting for my order.

I raised my palms and pushed flat, making a stop gesture. At the same time, I cleared my throat and imitated the voice of a cat star: "Meow~~~"

"Cat?" one of the guards said subconsciously.

Another guard immediately shouted: "Have you ever heard such an unpleasant meow? This is clearly a sound made by humans!"

After saying that, he gathered the power of transformation, prepared for attack, and raised his voice at the same time: "I have discovered you, don't hide your head and tail anymore, if you don't come out within three numbers, I will take action! "

"one!"

I frowned and quickly whispered orders to the assassins.

"two!"

After making a bunch of hand gestures, the assassins nodded in unison, a few jumped up, and disappeared into the darkness.

"three!"

"Stop!" I strode out, raised my hands, and said with a smile, "Don't be impatient, it's me."

"Lord Elder!"

The two guards shouted in unison, but then they stared at me warily. One of them said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Elder, a lot of things happened today. Your Majesty has ordered that anyone waiting will need to be searched. Please You cooperate."

Seeing their nervous expressions, I raised my arms and said, "Come on, search whatever you want."

"Please excuse me."

One of the guards walked up to me quickly and stretched out his hand to clasp my neck. Even though his nails were trimmed, it still hurt.

After a while, the guard put down his hand, took two steps back, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Sir, please forgive me for my presumption."

"I forgive you." I leaned down, helped him up, patted the dust on his knees, and said, "You are able to fulfill your duties and be selfless. It is your majesty's sharp eyesight and a blessing to my Moonlight City. I can't praise you enough. Why should I punish you?"

"Thank you, sir."

"Okay, I have something serious to do. Open the door. I want to go in and identify the body."

"Identification of the body? I'm sorry to say more, sir, do you have His Majesty's handwriting?"

"No" I shook my head: "If there had been a handwriting, I wouldn't have come in person."

"But sir, we can't give way to you without a handwriting. This is against the rules."

"Be accommodating," I said with a smile, "Why don't you say that I am also an elder, so I won't even give you this little face?"

"Forgive me for not obeying the order." The guard said seriously: "Your Majesty has an order. Unless there is a handwriting, you are not allowed to come within three meters of the gate. You are an elder. It is already very accommodating for you to come here. Please don't embarrass us anymore." These are subordinates."

"Oh, how can this be considered an embarrassment?" I said earnestly, "Think about it, I came here secretly, and no one else knew about it. No matter whether you let me go or not, no one would know what happened here today. , instead of abiding by the rigid rules, how about you let me go and consider it a favor that I owe you?"

Without thinking, the two guards said in unison: "Please forgive me, Elder."

"I'm sorry again, hey, why don't you two understand each other at all?" After sighing, I shook my head and then looked up at the sky. The night was getting dark, so I said, "The night is long and I don't want to sleep. Since we two If you don’t let me go, then you can chat with me, right?”

"Chat?" The guards looked at each other with a confused look on their faces.

"No way, not even chatting?" I frowned, showing displeasure.

"No, chatting is okay, just"

"Any questions?"

"My subordinate hopes that we can chat here. After all, we are still on duty."

"Okay," I said with a smile, "Then let me talk about a topic first. Have you ever eaten grilled white fish?"
