Chapter 537: the difference

Views:

"I understand." An Fei nodded slowly: "Beitu Lion Gate matters...just follow Chris Ding's wishes."

"Yes, sir." Ye was secretly happy. An Fei's attitude proved that his insinuation had an effect, and he was also glad that he was following the right person. Although An Fei was a bit arbitrary, he was by no means the kind of person who would do his own thing, because An Fei was Fei can accept the opinions put forward by others.

At this moment, the footsteps of many people were heard outside the door, and then a person outside whispered: "Captain?"

"What's the matter?" Ye heard that it was his subordinate.

"Caught! Captain, we caught those guys!" a mercenary shouted excitedly.

"Captain, we can finally give Lady Alice an explanation." Another mercenary shouted.

"Alice asked you to arrest someone?" An Fei asked softly.

"Ms. Alice doesn't know about our actions. I don't dare to tell Lady Alice about it until we catch someone. However...Ms. Alice seems to have heard about it, but she didn't ask me." Ye said with a bitter smile. .

"What happened?"

"My lord, you haven't gone out these days, have you?"

"I only went to the garrison twice, and I didn't realize anything happened."

"That's it, sir." Ye thought for a while: "After those nobles were executed, their families pointed the finger at Lady Alice. In addition to spreading rumors everywhere, they also wrote slogans in every corner of the city. He used extremely vicious and obscene language to insult Lady Alice. The most intolerable thing is that a painter painted several portraits near the east city gate. The pictures...forget it. Sir, you don't want to know."

"Say!" An Fei said coldly.

"It's a picture of a woman and a big devil. The painter must have met Lady Alice. His painting skills are also very mature. The women in the pictures are exactly the same as Lady Alice. Anyone who has seen Lady Alice... I can recognize who the woman in the picture is." Ye smiled bitterly and said, "Even if you haven't seen it, you still understand what those paintings mean. The woman in the picture is wearing a dog collar, and there is a sign under the collar with the word "Governor" written on it. .”

An Fei slapped the table with his palm, and the entire table turned into flying dust in an instant. The loud noise in the room startled the mercenaries outside. No one dared to speak anymore.

"Where's the painting?"

"We will destroy that section of the wall right away." Ye said softly.

"Alice knows these things?"

"You should know that Lady Alice has promoted many civilians. They have no reason to be disloyal to Lady Alice. They will report anything they hear or see to Lady Alice, not to mention that Beitu Shimen is still because of this incident. I apologize to Alice-sama.”

"What does Beitu Shimen have to do with this matter?"

Only then did Ye realize that he had made a mistake. He paused and said with a wry smile: "The painting was painted at night, and it was discovered by Beitu Shimen's subordinates in the early morning. Not only did they do nothing, but they also made fun of it. We even deliberately blocked the passing patrols, but it was almost noon before we discovered the paintings."

"Bastard!" An Fei couldn't bear it anymore and roared angrily.

"Sir, I haven't finished speaking yet." Ye's bitter smile became thicker and thicker: "This matter should have nothing to do with Beitu Shimen. Even if he is very dissatisfied with you, he will not use such nasty and low-level words. A way to vent his anger. I guess... it's because he often complained about you behind your back, and his emotions affected the mercenaries under his command. That's why those mercenaries deliberately caused trouble. After the incident, Beitu Shimen seemed very panicked. Lady Alice apologized and even killed several of her henchmen when she went back."

An Fei walked slowly to the window and gently pushed it open. He tried his best to calm down. Unexpectedly, the entire window shattered and the fragments fell down. The mercenaries patrolling the courtyard couldn't help but stop. He stepped forward and looked in the direction of An Fei.

An Fei's eyes fell on the main building. The lights were still on in Alice's office. An Fei suddenly asked: "Alice hasn't rested yet?"

"Probably not. Alice-sama has been getting busier and busier these days."

In Alice's office room, Alice and Huiwei sat opposite each other, with a pile of papers stacked high in front of each of them. Only Susanna had nothing to do, sitting quietly on the side chair.

"I heard someone shouting just now. It seemed to be An Fei?" Alice closed the scroll in her hand and said softly.

"I seem to have heard it too." Hui Wei continued.

"It's An Fei." Susanna nodded: "Maybe... someone made him angry."

"Suzanne, please go back and take a look." Alice said.

"I'll leave when Ximpella comes."

"Then An Fei..."

"Don't worry, An Fei is not a child, he can take care of himself." Susanna smiled.

"Then I am a child who cannot take care of myself?" Alice couldn't laugh or cry.

"I didn't say that!"

"My lord, Madam also has good intentions." Hui Wei smiled and said: "You have been in danger more than once or twice. If there is an accident, we cannot afford it."

"It's up to you. I'm just curious. Who could make An Fei so angry?" Alice shrugged: "Suzanne, is An Fei in a bad mood these days?" "

Susanna thought seriously for a moment, shook her head and said, "No."

"I asked the wrong person. You probably can't tell." Alice smiled and said, "An Fei likes you so much that he doesn't even have time to pamper you or love you. Even if there is something unhappy, he will hide it from you." .”

"Alice, are you free?" Susanna's face turned red: "Just do your own thing!" Alice smiled, took another scroll, and read it carefully.

After a moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and An Fei walked into the room slowly. Alice didn't even raise her head: "Suzanne, come on, smile!"

Susanna not only smiled, but also immediately greeted An Fei. When she heard Alice's words, she didn't even smile, nor did she not smile. She leaned next to An Fei and gouged Alice hard with her eyes. Unfortunately, Alice Still didn't look up, and couldn't see her expression at all.

"An Fei, I was just going to find you." Huiwei put down the scroll and turned around.

"I didn't say anything, how did you know it was mine?" An Fei smiled, his mood has stabilized now.

"Because you are the most rude and never knock on the door." Alice raised her head and pursed her lips with a smile: "Besides, you are the only one who can make Mrs. Susanna jump like crazy."

"You're crazy!" Susanna laughed angrily. Her swordsmanship was sharp, but her verbal skills were poor. She could only imitate the opponent's words and counterattack.

"An Fei, what's wrong?" Alice's eyes fell on An Fei.

An Fei thought that Alice would be in a bad mood now, but the facts were obviously very different from his imagination. He paused and said, "Alice, we executed so many nobles, and Mr. Bailey didn't ask any questions." Have you passed?"

"Of course..." Hui Wei said.

Alice coughed lightly and interrupted Huiwei: "Huiwei, go and find Ozgucci. I have to leave some things to him."

Although Huiwei is also a smart man, he doesn't know where he went wrong. He was stunned and said with a smile: "Okay, sir."

"If Huiwei wasn't here, you would tell me that nothing happened, right?" An Fei said as he sat down in the seat vacated by Huiwei.

"An Fei, your expression and tone are too solemn. I feel... weird." Alice smiled.

"Suzanne, go to the door and watch, don't let others in." An Fei patted Susanna on the waist.

"Yeah." Susanna responded.

"An Fei, what happened?"

"What happened...you should know, right? Didn't Beitu Shimen apologize to you?"

"You mean...the ones on the street?"

"Um."

"An Fei, there's no need to make a fuss, right?" Alice laughed.

"What's all the fuss about?"

"I know that you care about me very much, but this kind of thing... is inevitable." Alice said softly: "Even gods are cursed sometimes, let alone humans? I can't stand being scolded for a few times. I It’s better that this governor doesn’t do it now.”

An Fei looked at Alice quietly. There was a big difference between the two of them. It didn't mean that one was better than the other. It just meant that there was a huge difference in the survival categories suitable for individuals. If he is struggling to survive in a dangerous environment, An Fei is the strongest among the strong. He has strength and scheming. He will not only survive, but also live well. If it were Alice, she would only be bullied by others. Target, her political acumen is completely useless. But in Moonlight City, Alice's performance was much better than An Fei's. She was relaxed, calm, and unfazed by honor and disgrace. What An Fei thought would make Alice sad did not actually cause any ripples in Alice's heart. , this kind of pure politician's demeanor is what An Fei has a hard time learning.

Not to mention Alice, Chris Ding and An Fei are as close as brothers, but the biggest difference between them is this. Sol also said behind his back that An Fei will never leave room for the enemy, which means that he will also not leave room for himself. Leave room. An Fei was born as an assassin, and what he believed in was a bit extreme in comparison. If he was an enemy, he must die, and if he was a friend, he must protect him. Therefore, An Fei had already carefully laid a trap before Dragon Man Kremlin appeared.
