The world in front of me is pitch black, only the data flow is flowing downwards quickly. Annan stared at every word carefully, lest he missed any details.
Just after the characters that had been loaded gradually faded away, a faint and illusory whisper suddenly sounded in his ear:
"Betrayers must die..."
It was a young man's voice, but it was wet and full of resentment like the cry of a drowned man.
The next moment, Annan suddenly felt that he was being pushed hard.
"John? John, wake up!"
A rude male voice sounded in front of him: "Why did you fall asleep! Where did the young master go?"
"Huh? Hmm..."
Only then did Annan realize that he was sitting on the ground and fell asleep leaning against the two wooden barrels behind him.
He opened his eyes and saw a bearded man in his forties squatting in front of him with a straight face.
The man had a straight face and looked angry. But from the point that he didn't kick himself up directly, this person should have a pretty good temper.
"Ah, I'm sleepy... I'm so sorry..."
Annan replied somewhat vaguely.
After all, he had no idea what this person's name was or how it was related to him. I can only respond like this.
But as soon as Annan's words came out of his mouth, he himself paused.
Although the sound of my ears when I speak is quite different from the recording heard from the outside. But Annan was still keenly aware that the resentful words he just heard were probably said by "John".
Who is the traitor
What is the status of "Annan" on this ship
Seeing Annan's reply, he was a little distracted, and the middle-aged man's voice became louder: "If you are sleepy, go practice swordsmanship, don't be lazy here!
"I shouldn't have let you stay in the cabin! You're really blind to how much the young master thinks of you! How can you take care of young master Don Juan like this? You won't even know if he's taken away!"
"terribly sorry… "
"Don't apologize, just say 'yes, instructor'!"
"Yes, instructor!"
Annan is as good as a stream.
He roughly understood the identity relationship between the two.
"Wait, Klaus..."
A childish, somewhat nervous voice sounded behind them.
The two looked away.
It was a young man who had just come down from the door, about fourteen or fifteen years old.
The young nobleman named Don Juan had short black hair, blue pupils, and fair skin similar to Annan's. But his appearance is far less refined than Annan, with freckles on his face, slightly raised cheeks and small eyes.
But from the white and tender skin on his hands and face, it can be seen that this is indeed a young man of noble origin, and he usually takes care of himself very clean.
The boy clutched a bag of sugar cookies tightly in his hand. Noticing the gaze of Instructor Klaus, he nervously put the sugar cake behind him, and ordered calmly, "Don't do this to John, Klaus! John, too...he didn't mean to..."
His voice was quite loud at first, but under the gaze of the middle-aged man, he soon lost his confidence.
Klaus just put on a straight face, and explained to the noble boy very politely: "I am your chief guard, the Earl asked me to take care of you, and I will be responsible for your safety. In the North Sea Territory, Geraint The name of the family is far less useful than when it was in the capital, and anything can happen here."
"Anyway, it's not you."
The young earl's son didn't care much about this: "There is also Lord Benjamin. Father said he is a silver-rank wizard. Is there any danger in such a remote place as the North Sea Territory..."
"Please don't make it difficult for me to be with the Earl, Master Don Juan."
Klaus's tone was slightly aggravated: "At least on the bright side, you were dispatched by the Earl. Although Lord Benjamin and I are secretly protecting you, we can't help you much... Also, it's time to It's dinner time, no more sweets."
"Okay, okay, I see..."
Don Juan Geraint pursed his mouth, and responded a little annoyed.
Seeing that Don Juan didn't seem very convinced, Klaus turned his gun completely, ignored John and reprimanded Don Juan Jr. severely. It was not until Don Juan lowered his head and stopped talking back that he turned and opened the door to leave with a soft snort.
"Remember to keep an eye on the young master, John. Don't fall asleep again."
He finally warned Annan again.
Annan immediately responded, "Yes, instructor!"
Seeing this, Klaus nodded in satisfaction and left.
Seeing him leave, Don Juan finally heaved a sigh of relief, leaned over to John and complained in a low voice, "That guy Klaus talks too much. Do I have to report to him for anything I eat? Really... Anyway, thanks, John .I already got that thing."
Don Juan pointed to his left armpit and said proudly, "I sewed it into the interlayer of my clothes."
"I still feel that way..."
Annan muttered ambiguously and didn't say much, just trying to get some new information out.
Tang Juan's face immediately sank: "You don't understand... I can only rest assured if I put this thing close to my body."
After all, he sighed.
"I don't have a single guard on this ship that is mine except you. They were either sent by my father or my two brothers. I have no one to trust but you, John."
"I will protect you."
When Annan heard the words, he immediately put on a very moved look, and said righteously, "You can completely trust John."
Although he felt that the tone of "John" was a bit weird, Don Juan nodded reassuringly: "Then please... By the way, John, you continue to stay here and pretend to be asleep. Remember to watch my package, don't Get someone close to it. I'll come back after dinner and you'll go.
"I've always suspected that someone was trying to steal it. If anyone approaches, chase him away and tell me who it is in private."
"I see."
Annan's heart moved, and he responded softly.
If anyone wants to get close... Isn't Klaus one
But obviously Don Juan has not suspected him yet. So Annan was smart enough not to say much.
He just thought about it for a while and said nonsense: "By the way, master. Klaus just asked me where the other black-haired and blue-eyed child is on this boat. How should I answer?"
"... black hair and blue eyes?"
Tang Juan was taken aback when he heard the words: "Impossible, this is a characteristic of people from the Northland. Only people from the Duke of Winter would have black hair and blue eyes. If it wasn't for my mother... In short, there is no such person on this ship."
Having said that, he frowned slightly and confirmed, "Are you sure that's what Klaus asked?"
"yes."
Annan replied solemnly: "Should I reply him like this?"
"No... don't worry about it. If he brings it up again, you can say that there is no such person-although there is no such thing."
The black-haired boy asked again with some unease: "I told you just now, don't tell him."
"yes."
After Annan got the information he wanted, he also followed the principle of saying more and making mistakes.
... Is there no such person on this ship
That is to say, "I" was not killed on this ship? Well, that's right, the ship wasn't shipwrecked at all, but was ransacked and killed by traitors.
In this case…
Annan glanced at Don Juan, his heart skipped a beat.
Maybe I can replace his existence.
Now we need to get more information about this world, especially Don Juan's personal secrets...
Watching Don Juan close the door and leave, Annan felt the fainting feeling of being hit by a brick again in the back of his head. But this time Annan has almost gotten used to it.
He shook his head, and a large stream of data appeared in front of his eyes.
[Even Earl Geraint couldn't keep his youngest son, Don Juan Geraint. Perhaps Don Juan was dispatched to the most remote North Sea Territory, which was the last escape route he planted for his son.]
[The most important city in the Beihai Territory is the Frozen Water Port bordering the Duchy of Winter. If the Geraint family can survive the next catastrophe, then he can naturally return to the capital; if the Geraint family suffers a catastrophe, he can at least flee to the sphere of influence of the neighboring country immediately and apply for asylum.]
[But obviously, poor Don Juan Geraint failed to reach Frozen Water Harbor alive]
[His most loyal bodyguard, John, is also the same—]
After these traces faded away, new words appeared in front of Annan's eyes again:
[Main task: Complete John's unfinished last wish]
Immediately, a large piece of small characters quickly appeared below this line of words:
[Find out the true identity of the traitor]
[Live until dinner starts]
[Don't let Don Juan Geraint drink the poisoned wine]
"... Betrayer."
Annan was thoughtful.
He suddenly remembered the resentful whisper that sounded like it sounded underwater when he just entered the dungeon.
"Betrayers must die..."
At present, Annan believes that the most suspicious person seems to be the chief guard Klaus.
John was ordered to pretend to be asleep in the room, in order to allow him to stay in this room more naturally. In this way, if he is bumped into by someone, he won't startle the snake—from this point of view, Young Master Don Juan still has some brains.
However, he didn't seem to believe that the chief guard invited by his father was the one who planned to steal his treasure. Instead, it was the nonsense he said just now that made the young master suspicious of Klaus.
Obviously... At least in Don Juan's view, Klaus has no motive to take away his treasure, but he may have bad intentions about his origin.
"... This kind of decryption difficulty is indeed only a simple level."
Annan sighed after glancing at the details of the three missions derived from the main mission.
Forget it, after all, this game involves your own life safety. Let's be a little more serious.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and used his brain: "If I were John, what would I do
"John is a very loyal guard. He may be the only one who is loyal to Don Juan... If you think about it from this point of view, he may have never left here.
"Then, he should die without knowing who betrayed Don Juan, and he was killed before the dinner started. But he also knew that Don Juan would be drunk with poisoned wine..."
Annan did not overlook a single detail.
John was the only one who died on deck. There was only one bloodstain on the deck, and that was under John.
So, John finally left the room. And when he left the room, it was when John was betrayed and died.
Conversely, if you want to fulfill John's last wish, you must not stay here. Otherwise, it is repeating the story that happened to John.
I have up to three chances, so at least I have to get some useful and favorable information this time.
If we can know which people on board are traitors, when and where they plan to do it... Such information can be used next time.
You won't know anything if you squat here.
Gotta get out of here.
— but not for Don Juan to discover.
Annan's thoughts became clearer.
