During the days when Fang Tinglan was under house arrest in the embassy, Hailian was not idle. He first sent money to the Viscount and his wife, and listened to the couple's chatter; O'Brien's new play "Two Thieves" " will be staged on the day of the Sea God Festival. He watched several rehearsals with him, and even pointed out with great interest the professional mistakes of the actors when they played the role of the thief.
Half a month later, Hailian went to Xiaoye Dock, brought Ake and his sister to the capital of Tisu, and asked the old Viscount and his wife to help his sister find a job as a servant; as for how to settle Ake, it was Hailian's rare crime In a difficult situation, the little guy insisted that Hailian owed him a hand in fighting, and stuck behind Hailian's back, muttering, like a tail, unable to shake off, Hailian was entangled by him for two days and couldn't help it, so he had to carry the boy Throwing the collar to Falluco.
The first time Ake saw Faluko, he was honest immediately.
After all, the sheriff's black robe is already majestic enough, coupled with Faluko's expressionless face and metal-like sharp voice, it really made the boy's neck tighten for a while, for fear that the other party would see his body. His habit of pirates directly sent him to the gallows.
Faluco looked Ake up and down, "What will he do?"
Hai Lian replied: "I can shoot, but my marksmanship is not very good."
"..."
He frowned deeper, "If you want to work in the Public Security Department, you don't just need to be able to shoot. You might as well send him to school for two years to settle accounts."
"I really want to make this plan, but unfortunately I won't be able to stay in Jiumeng for two years." Hailian said with a smile.
Faluko looked at the corners of Hailian's pursed mouth, and realized that the other party was already waiting for him here. The man had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll be his signatory."
"That's great," Hailian felt relieved, "Don't worry, this kid is a smart boy, more than enough to be your helper."
Faluco was noncommittal, took out a coin from his pocket and threw it to Ake: "As my first step, go to the tobacco shop in Jiufang Street to buy me a box of tobacco leaves, and ask for the ink gold silk from Dongzhou; If it's out of stock, Binanye is fine too, and the extra money is my meeting gift, and I can use it to buy candy."
Ake muttered, "I'm not a child anymore, and I'm still thinking about buying candy." With the silver coin firmly grasped in his palm, he bowed to the two and ran out in a hurry.
Faluco watched the boy disappear outside the door, and then he talked to Hai Lian about the business: "The time has been set."
"when?"
The sheriff raised his chin towards the assassin: "You close the door first."
The plan of the "Earl of the Green Hat" is very simple. Every year during the Poseidon Festival, the Amber King will hold a sacrifice in the bedroom alone. At that time, Simona will make some troubles in the assembly to attract the attention of the poisonous scorpion Amber, and Hailian will follow the map. Sneak into the palace according to the route given, and while the assassination is successful, the people of Simona on the other side will quickly control the Imperial Guards to complete the coup.
"Actually, it's a reenactment of how Abal ascended to the throne eight years ago." Faluco handed the map to Hailian, "It's just that the roles are reversed now."
"Your tone doesn't seem very willing?" Hai Lian asked.
"You have worked for the Public Security Department for three years, but the Earl never knew about you. Who do you think is the credit?" Faluco said coldly, "I didn't want you to go through this muddy water from the very beginning. .”
"Neither the earl nor your friend are easy characters to deal with," the sheriff warned him.
"I know Fang Tinglan is difficult to deal with, but I trust him." Hai Lian folded the map and put it in his pocket, then glanced at him again: "What about you? Where are you standing?"
"I am from Tisu, and I only stand on Tisu's side." The other party replied.
What Faluco said was ambiguous, and Hailian didn't go into it. Before he left, he could still joke to the sheriff: "The last business you gave me is too big. I guess you can't pay the reward if you sell you."
Falluco raised his eyebrows, flicked a gold coin from the drawer, and said, "Freedom is your reward."
In the last seven days before the Sea God Festival, Simona personally talked with Fang Tinglan twice. The two sides "friendly" informed Fang Tinglan of his coup plan, handed over the alliance contract and documents, and claimed to have made a contribution to this Several distinguished guests from Dongzhou provided a boat in Yulan Port for them to leave after the event was completed.
If it wasn't for Fang Tinglan who was still restrained in the embassy and not allowed to go out, the two sides could be considered to be communicating on an equal footing.
Even when he was in Fecona's territory, Fang Tinglan was rarely so passive, and he would always think of the prison scene, so it is reasonable for him to feel irritable. Today, Qin Weiyu was invited by Tisu nobles to go to the theater. Zhou Buyi had no girls to flirt with, so he went to bed early, and Fang Tinglan was the only one left in the study—even though it was difficult to deliver the news, he still got used to it. Quickly sort out the chess pieces available in your hand.
When he finished writing the last word, the moon was full, the man rubbed his stiff and sore neck, and when he turned left and right, he suddenly heard two sounds from the window sill beside him more clearly than the cervical spine.
In a daze, he thought that he had heard it wrong, so he got up to look, but just as he opened the window, a grimace suddenly appeared in front of him. Fang Tinglan was caught off guard and took two steps back.
The grimace suddenly laughed.
After Fang Tinglan realized it, he was angry and helpless: "Your Excellency broke into your private house at night, do you want to kill me?"
Grimace didn't speak, but just hooked his hand. When Fang Tinglan approached again, the other party grabbed his front collar suddenly, and with the other hand, he lifted his cover and kissed him. Fang Tinglan's hands were not idle either. The moment his lips and teeth met, he had already hugged the visitor's back, and pulled him into the room. The floor was covered with a soft velvet blanket, and there was no sound when he fell down .
The ugly Poseidon mask rolled to the ground, revealing the beautiful face of the unexpected guest.
Fang Tinglan let the other party kiss enough, and then held the fingers that were stained with powder dust on the window sill: "Why are you here?"
"The small building of the embassy is much easier to climb than the cliff, and there are still footholds under the window sill. I advise you to have someone knock it down, or the next time some kind of monster will come and kill you in minutes."
"Apart from you, who else cares about my life so much?"
Hailian curled her lips: "No one cares about your life, why are there so many guards outside?"
"Well, I can't tell you," Fang Tinglan kissed him again, "You still haven't said why you came here?"
"There is no reason, I can see whoever I want to see."
His little pirate always comes and goes as the wind does as he pleases, Fang Tinglan raised the corner of his mouth: "Ah, so you miss me?"
Hailian raised her eyebrows, but didn't deny it. He looked at the desk beside him: "What were you writing just now?"
"Speaking of this, I have something to ask you for help." Fang Tinglan signaled Hailian to get up from him, "Your friend the sheriff should have told you when to do it, right?"
"Well, I've been memorizing maps for the past two days." Hailian stood up and followed to the desk. Fang Tinglan took out a letter from the page and handed it to him, and said an address, "Simona gave I have a route back to Chi Jin, but I don't believe him. I still have a hidden stake that they haven't discovered, so you help me deliver this letter to them."
"and then?"
"They will re-arrange a boat. After leaving Yulan Port, we will change at Qianlu Beach, and then head east around Harp Island and take the Sand Ghost Bay Line."
"Sand Ghost Bay Line... Aren't you afraid of being skinned by those pirates?"
"Isn't there an invincible pirate beside me?" Fang Tinglan blinked at the sea.
Hai Lian was greatly appreciated by this compliment. He nodded and put the letter into his arms: "Is there nothing else? Then we will see you at Yulan Port in seven days." He was about to leave through the window, and the buckle on his belt Suddenly hooked by the other party's index finger, "What's wrong?"
"Your Excellency just scared me." Fang Qianwei was very aggrieved.
Hailian glanced at the mask on the ground, and the scar at the corner of his eye twitched slightly: "So?"
"Whenever I am frightened, I will have many nightmares at night and cannot sleep well," the index finger moved from the ring to the side of the waist a little bit, and the burning breath was close to the ear, "So... you, the culprit, should you help suppress me? Shocked?"
at the same time.
Today's play in the Grand Theater has reached its final scene. The butler informed Count Simona that the carriage back home was ready, and at the same time informed him that there was a young guest outside the door.
The door of the box opened, and Simona nodded slightly to the guest: "I remember that I should have finalized the deal yesterday, and also finished negotiating all the contracts and plans you need, Your Highness Chen Wang."
Qin Weiyu stood stiffly at the door, his face uncertain. He hesitated for a long time before finally making up his mind and speaking.
"It's me. I want to make another deal with the Earl."
Hearing these words, the man didn't even move his crooked sitting posture, his eyes were narrowed, like a pitch-black vulture catching its prey in the dimly lit theater.
"No problem." Black Eagle replied with a smile.
