Chen Huijie, I am not a good person anymore!

"The intelligence network in Rata Town has been exposed?"

"Yes, but there shouldn't be any problems. The other party just intercepted the letter and knew we were here. Maybe they are observing somewhere outside the base right now."

Luo Ya breathed a sigh of relief. The school officer had realized the seriousness of the matter. Fortunately, Luo Ya had reorganized the original intelligence group and the secret detective team on the first day of his appointment, and required all intelligence personnel to change the address of Abrana to Ms. A. Otherwise, if the other party directly saw Abrana's name or the title of Her Highness, it would be really bad.

"Then I'll take someone to look for it now?"

"They can't find you. They are in the dark while you are in the light. They will run away when they see you coming out. Spy's fighting ability doesn't have to be high, but the escape technique must be first-rate."

Patting the officer on the shoulder, Luo Ya's expression of "You're still not smart enough" made him want to punch this guy.

"What should I do?"

"It's simple. I think he's the only one acting alone, and he's a rookie. Go find the messenger bird."

Luo Ya picked up his black bow and couldn't help but sigh that he was destined to be a busy man. He had just finished his work and had to work overtime before he had even had a full meal, and he didn't even get overtime pay.

But it would be better to get these things done as soon as possible. Xiao Ke didn't come to see me at this time probably because Rosemary was keeping an eye on me. Going back early would also make them feel more at ease.

Just as Luo Ya thought, Xiao Ke was getting anxious because he hadn't come back today. If Lafshini hadn't said in the afternoon when she came to treat Rosemary that Luo Ya was just assigned a lot of work and couldn't get away, Xiao Ke would have probably started making a fuss a long time ago.

"Luo Ya still hasn't come back... um... Xiao Ke should go find him!"

"You will only cause trouble for him if you go." Rosemary flipped the pages of the book. "Wait here. Luo Ya will come back. Learn from me."

"You've been reading a book for three hours and you're still looking at the table of contents. Xiao Ke doesn't want to learn from you."

Maybe learning has really paid off, Xiao Ke has become smarter now, at least he has become more smart when it comes to the matter of his conflict with Rosemary.

But waiting for Luo Ya was really boring, even more boring than doing those questions. Xiao Ke felt a little resentful. Since coming to this place, the time Luo Ya spent with them had been reduced a lot, and it seemed that he had no intention of leaving for a while.

"It's all the fault of that bad woman named Ai Banana. She took all of Roya away. Damn it!"

"I already said I love Brana, not banana. If Roya hears you say that, he'll have a headache again."

Although she behaved very well and was sensible, Rosemary was actually dissatisfied with Abrana. She also knew that Roya had to stay here because of her, which made her feel even more guilty.

————————————————————————————————————————

Shenchi's base was a small village on the plains. It didn't look like anything special. Even at this hour, many doors had their candles extinguished. From the outside, there was nothing wrong.

But his eyes lurking in the dark were staring at the small village, thinking about how to enter it to gather intelligence. Although according to the regulations he should contact his companions and pass the news to his superiors as soon as possible, but if there really was the person he was thinking of in this village, then this merit would be enough for this newcomer to directly leap over the dragon gate, and it would not be impossible for him to obtain a title and a fiefdom.

It might be difficult to sneak in alone, so it would be better to disguise as a merchant. Even if he just got close, he could get a lot of information. Unfortunately, when he arrived, it was already afternoon and almost dark, so he couldn't observe anything. It seemed that he could only withdraw temporarily...

"Ok?"

Under the gloomy moonlight, he saw a carrier bird flying out of the village. This was an opportunity.

Under the cover of night, after the carrier bird flew quite a distance, he decisively threw out a flying net to capture it, sealed the bird's mouth and planned to open the letter to see if it contained any confidential content. It would be best if he could find out who was the Grand Duke behind everything and whether the owner of the purple flame was a descendant of the Victorian royal family.

But after unfolding the letter, he saw only three words on it: Don't look back.

He heard the sound of something flying through the air from behind him. Without thinking, he took out his weapon and blocked his chest. However, the black arrow seemed to have a mind of its own and suddenly fell from mid-air and pierced his thigh.

"hiss!"

Although he did not cry out in pain at first because of the professional training he had received, he knew that he was exposed. Needless to say, the first priority at this time was to escape.

However, when he stretched out his hand to pull out the arrow, he found that his legs were paralyzed and he had lost all ability to move. The black color on the arrow penetrated into his body like a living fluid, and an indescribable chill flowed through his blood vessels.

"As expected, a rookie who is eager for success and is a bit afraid of death. This is a good thing."

Luo Ya's voice sounded behind him, and then the flashlight shone on the gray-black figure.

"Drop the weapon."

Roya's order took the initiative and made the man in gray clothes drop his weapon in disbelief.

"With uniforms and weapons like these...it looks like you are a subordinate of the Grand Duke."

That being said, Luo Ya actually had no idea which Grand Duke this guy belonged to. He just wanted to trick him. Not everyone could use such equipment. If the colonel was here, he would probably know which unit this guy belonged to, but he would probably also recognize who was behind this, and it would be difficult to let him go.

"You know us?"

"Of course, it's rare to find people like you who are afraid that others won't recognize you when you're on a mission. Don't worry, I don't intend to kill you, otherwise I would have let you commit suicide just now."

First he crippled his opponent's legs to ensure he couldn't run away, then he threw away his weapon to prevent him from resisting. Then he sat on the rock where he was hiding, not worrying at all that he would choose to commit suicide.

"A newcomer like you should be easy to talk to. Let's talk."

"How do you know I'm new?"

"Nonsense, if you really were one of those old foxes, you would have run away when you intercepted the letter during the day, or you would have committed suicide when I crippled your legs just now. Since you didn't do that, you must be afraid of death."

With his legs crossed so that the communicator inside the windbreaker could receive the sound better, Luo Ya's posture made the other party feel humiliated, but Luo Ya was right, he was just greedy for merit and was afraid of death. During the training, the instructor said that if the mission failed, it would be best to choose suicide. There was a poison between his teeth, but he didn't dare to eat it.

"Don't be so nervous. I like people who are afraid of death because most of them are easy to talk to and willing to communicate. Let me introduce myself... Well, I am Noah, the chief secretary of Shenchi."

"Narys, a member of the fifth squad of the Grey Hat Force."

Although mixed with the sound of the wind, the sound was still conveyed to the school officer and Abrana who were in the base. After hearing that it was the gray hat, their expressions changed slightly.

They all knew who Grey Hat was loyal to, and that was another formidable rival: the Duke of Caister.

Chapter 33: Abbrana and Roya

The wind was blowing in the wilderness. Luo Ya thought it was too cold while pretending to be at ease to overwhelm the gray hat in front of him.

Just like he said, the man in the gray hat in front of him was just a rookie, greedy for merit and afraid of death, otherwise he would not have been caught.

"Yeah, so the movement at that time was noticed."

After listening to the other party's story, Luo Ya also understood what was going on. He was also responsible for this matter. No, it was all Abrana's fault!

Before, in order to catch him in Rata Town, the purple flame cast by Abrana caused a lot of commotion, because that kind of flame is completely different from ordinary Originium spells. In addition, this is the ancient land of Tara and there are many legends related to the red dragon bloodline, that is, the Drake clan, it is hard not to make associations.

So after learning the news, the Gray Hat Team Five chose to come here to investigate to see if there really is a so-called red dragon, or if a certain grand duke is secretly making trouble and wants to create some fame for himself.

"As expected, it really exists, the descendant of Draco..."

"Of course. And she's a mean boss who is inconsiderate and not gentle at all. She has nothing but good looks and a good figure. She looks like she wants to eat people when she laughs. She is simply black-bellied and venomous."

When Abulara Roa was mentioned, he thought of his tiredness today and complained without any mercy. He wanted to describe Abulara as a devil crawling out of hell. He even almost forgot that he still had the communicator on and the other end could hear everything going on here.

The officer on the other end of the phone looked at Abrana, whose expression and smile became more and more amiable. He, who never believed in gods or religions, had already begun to pray in his heart that Roya would not die in too much pain.

The man in the gray hat was obviously confused by what Roya said. Just now he suspected that Roya might have communicated with the base, but now it seemed unlikely.

"So, now that you know that there are indeed descendants of Draco here, what are you going to do?"

"The Duke of Castor would be happy to meet her. Now that Victoria has no monarch, the Victorians need someone who can lead them forward."

(It turns out that the man behind the grey hat is the Duke of Castor. So Abramana is indeed in partnership with the Iron Duke. Neither of them is easy to mess with.)

Thinking about it in his mind, Luo Ya has learned a lot about the situation in Victoria these days. He knows that the Duke of Caster and the Iron Duke are arguably the most difficult to deal with in the whole of Victoria.

"In that case... I can agree to tell that guy about this, or I can let you go. You should have a fixed time to report the situation, right?"

"Yes, we have three minutes left to report our position and we will assemble in twenty minutes."

"Then let's leave a phone number and go."

Watching Roya reach out and knock on the black bow, Naris felt the biting cold in his blood disappear, and black liquid came out of his wound and disappeared in the wind.

There was a sharp pain in his lower limbs, but the man in the gray hat managed to hold it in and didn't scream out. He just picked up his weapon, saluted and apologized to Luo Ya, and then threw his communicator over.

He was not worried that Roya was going to kill him, otherwise he would have done it just now. However, from Roya's attitude towards Abrana, he could guess that Roya's position as the chief secretary was not low. Even... the descendant of Draco thought highly of him? No, it should be said that Roya did not take the descendant of Draco seriously?

No matter what, the ease and pressure shown by Roja throughout the game made the man in the gray hat feel quite scared.

"OK, let's contact each other later. Can we still go?"

Luo Ya threw the communicator to Naris and stood up. He was worried that Naris would not be able to reach the gathering point with such an injury.

"Don't worry, speed is the first requirement in our business."

"Then I can only wish you good luck."

Without saying anything, Roja stretched his back and walked towards the base, while Naris quickly ran into the night, not caring about the injuries on his legs. His vehicle was hidden not far ahead.

He needed to pass the information back as soon as possible. Although he almost lost his life, it was all worth it. If Draco was still very young and not very powerful, he would most likely not refuse the kindness from a Grand Duke. Then he would be able to get the credit for building cooperation between the two sides.

Even if the other party didn't want to cooperate, he did get the news that "Draque bloodline does exist", which is also a great achievement.

As a secret force of Castor, the Grey Hats are responsible for handling all kinds of dirty things. Not everyone in them is truly loyal to the Duke of Castor. At least Naris joined the Grey Hats only for the honor and status, and he joined the army because of the salary.

Luo Ya rubbed his arms coldly, thinking that this horrible weather was really not suitable for human beings. At this time before, he should have been telling Xiao Ke and Rosemary a bedtime story.

"Alas... there's no benefit in working overtime, why should I do this job?"

Scratching his head, Luo Ya suddenly realized that his actions did not conform to rational logic. He was not a member of Shen Chi, he was just working here temporarily. Now it seemed as if he had a deep relationship with Shen Chi.

As for what consequences would be caused by revealing Ablana's existence? Roya was not worried at all. If Ablana did not want to be exposed, she would not have done it openly at that time. Roya guessed that she probably did it on purpose. Even a large part of the rumors about Drake in Rata Town might have been spread by Ablana herself.

"What's going on?" Luo Ya patted his head. He felt that when he was under a lot of pressure, he would always do something that was not in line with his style.

"Forget it, let's go back early and report the situation. We still need to contact them, and then..."

Taking out the communicator, Luo Ya suddenly discovered a problem, that is, he had been communicating with Abrana the whole time, which meant that Abrana had heard almost everything he said, including his complaints.

After hanging up the phone silently, Luo Ya now had two choices. One was to call Xiao Ke and ask him to take Rosemary and escape directly to their side, and the other was to call the two girls to explain his final arrangements.

"I shouldn't... die, right?"

The wind blew, and no one answered Luo Ya's question, but the countdown in his mind made him scratch his head helplessly. He decided to use the old method he used this morning to climb over the wall and go back, have a good sleep first, and talk to Abrana about this matter tomorrow!

With this in mind, Luo Ya came to a point where the defense of the stronghold was relatively weak, and skillfully jumped onto the wall and flipped over.

Then he saw the smiling Abrana and her familiar eyes of caring for the dead. Without giving Roya a chance to escape, Abrana's tail directly wrapped around his waist, and the purple flames almost burned his face.

"Well, boss, listen to my excuse."

"A mean boss who is not considerate, not gentle at all, has nothing but good looks and a good figure, and a woman with a venomous heart who can eat people."

Abbrana's smile frightened Luo Ya, and he wondered if he was so brave just now?

"That's a very accurate description. It seems like you already fully understand who I am. Do I need to pretend anymore?"

"Well... Boss, you see I've been working overtime diligently for Shen Chi until now, so please don't be too harsh, okay?"

"If it weren't for the fact that you've been so busy until now, would I give you a chance to speak?"

She reached out and gently pinched Roya's face, then pinched his ears. Abrana always felt that his panicked look was particularly interesting. An indescribable sense of pleasure made her want to take good care of Roya.

It’s a pity that now is not the right time, so she can only let Luo Ya go temporarily.

"Well, boss, why don't you give me a couple of punches, otherwise I'm scared."

Luo Ya was not afraid of being beaten, but was afraid of having to do more work tomorrow. Abrana really had no sympathy for the difficulties of her employees, and if she didn't take revenge now, who knows where this elder sister would get it back.

"Do you have such hobbies?"

"I'm just worried that you'll find a reason to kill me someday."

Faced with Roya's frankness, Abrana couldn't help but chuckle and shook her head to indicate that she would not do that.

"You are very useful to Shen Chi. Besides... you are not wrong. I am just such a woman. If I were to vent my anger on others just because they told me the truth, then I would be too narrow-minded as a leader."

"Then why did you chase me and burn me last night?"

"You dare to mention it again?" Abrana gave Roya a cold look and blocked his words again, "Forget everything you saw last night!"

"I didn't see anything last night."

Luo Ya quickly expressed his sincerity, but to be honest, neither of them could forget that embarrassing scene. Abrana still couldn't figure out what kind of mood she was in when she took off Luo Ya's clothes and put them on, and then went back to the base like that. This directly led to more and more rumors about her and Luo Ya in the base.

In this slightly awkward atmosphere, the two of them prepared to go to the school officer to discuss the matter of the gray hat.

Luo Ya, who had regained some of his sanity, scratched his head and felt that what he had said before was indeed a bit excessive.

"Actually, you're not that bad. At least... you're a good sister. Ravshini is well taken care of."

This seemed to touch something in Abrana's heart. She glanced at Roya, but Roya could not see any emotion in those green eyes under the night sky.

"You are also a good brother. There are very few people in this world who would go to such lengths for an adopted sister."

At this moment, the two people who gave each other objective evaluations more or less understood each other.

One became the leader of Shen Chi for his only sister, and took great pains to maintain a balance between various forces, embarking on the path of rebellion; the other went to jail for his adopted sister, even at the cost of his own moral bottom line.

Abrana and Roya suddenly discovered a common point between them, that is, they can do anything for the people they care about.
