Chapter 2023 Secret 08-10-12 00:03:

Hearing White Wolf's words, the King Slayer started coughing violently, the tea choking his throat, and his face looked like he had seen a ghost.

"What's wrong with you?" White Wolf asked, handing over a tissue.

“Ahem.” The King Slayer wiped the corner of his mouth, trying to control his emotions as much as possible, and glanced at White Wolf with a strange look, “I say, in our entire organization, only you dare to speak like this.”

"What did you say?"

"Say it in that gratifying tone, saying that the leader has grown."

Miss White Wolf then realized the problem, scratched her head, and said "Oh" embarrassedly.

"Hey." The King Slayer gently poked the White Wolf's arm and asked with curiosity and expectation, "I've always wanted to know if you and Tallulah have some... that kind of, that kind of, relationship?"

"What kind of relationship are you talking about?"

The King Slayer described it timidly: "It's... the kind where one person is in love with another person."

"She told you?"

"No, I guessed it. I'm not a gossiper. It's mainly because of work. You know, I'm often busy around her, and I accidentally found her whispering about you. It was always in private. I also saw that she kept your photo."

"Then, what did she say about me?" Miss White Wolf couldn't help but become curious. She was very curious about this kind of relationship itself.

However, the Kingslayer shook his head: "I can't say that."

"Why can't I speak anymore?" Miss White Wolf was a little anxious.

"I can't say it. I absolutely can't say it. The leader's words are confidential. To say it out would be a dereliction of duty."

Miss White Wolf persuaded her earnestly, "Don't be so rigid. Some are confidential, and some are definitely okay."

"I really can't tell you that." The King Slayer gritted his teeth, "You have to ask her yourself."

"Okay." Miss White Wolf rolled her eyes. "You're doing a great job keeping your mouth shut."

"No, I've learned it well. Most of the time, we have to follow the rules."

"Who taught you this?"

"My Lord Patriot General."

"Okay, okay, you're right."

Miss White Wolf didn't intend to continue to dwell on the matter, but the King Slayer took the initiative to come closer and asked cautiously: "So, you are real?"

"Anyway, it's just what you observed." White Wolf's face flushed slightly.

The Regicide's expression suddenly became extremely wonderful, with astonishment, surprise, shock, and confusion. All kinds of emotions intertwined together, making Miss White Wolf feel uneasy.

"Hey, is it necessary to react so strongly?" she asked unhappily.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The King Slayer apologized quickly, "My fault, my fault."

However, although the red-tailed wolf apologized, it still glanced at the white wolf with strange eyes from time to time, giving people a feeling that it wanted to say something but stopped.

"Do you want to say anything else?" asked White Wolf.

"No, no," the Kingslayer replied hastily.

"It's okay. Tell me, why are you being so polite to me?"

"Well, I, I do have something to say."

"Go ahead."

"Ah, do you know about Alina's situation?" The King Slayer spoke carefully while quietly observing the White Wolf's expression.

The latter asked in confusion: "Alina? What happened to her?"

The Kingslayer widened his eyes in disbelief: "What happened between her and Tallulah, don't you know?!"

"They have a good relationship. What's wrong? What should I know?"

The Kingslayer's expression changed and he looked at the White Wolf with pity, as if he was looking at a little girl whose feelings had been deceived.

"Nothing." She covered it up, but her expression betrayed her mood completely.

Miss White Wolf narrowed her eyes: "What's going on?"

"It's okay, nothing happened actually."

"Then just say it."

The King Slayer avoided his gaze and hurriedly evaded the question: "Let's talk about the organization. Things are going pretty well lately."

"Tell me!" Miss White Wolf changed her tone to a threatening one, staring at the red-tailed wolf in front of her.

"me……"

"Say!"

The Kingslayer swallowed hard and said, "Then I will tell you the truth."

Miss White Wolf said nothing, just stared at the other person with a scary look.

"Tallulah, and, and Alina." The King Slayer's face turned paler as he spoke. "Also, that kind of relationship, before you."

Contrary to the Kingslayer's expectations, Miss White Wolf was just surprised and shook her ears in confusion, without showing much excitement.

"Are you telling the truth?" White Wolf asked doubtfully.

The Kingslayer was originally worried about damaging the relationship between Miss White Wolf and the Leader, but when he saw that the other party was so calm, he lost his composure.

Frankly speaking, the Regicide is a person who believes that career is career and life is life. She likes Miss White Wolf very much and cannot bear to see her being deceived, even if the deceiver is her immediate boss:

"It must be true. Before you went to the tundra, they...well, anyway, the elders in the organization knew about it, but no one ever said it out loud."

White Wolf said thoughtfully: "I suspect you are mistaken. I have been with them for a while, but I didn't see what you said."

The Kingslayer asked back, "You should at least admit that they have a good relationship."

"Well, it's nothing."

"What you don't know is that they have a very good relationship. Let's put it this way, if Tallulah took a nap with her head resting on Alina's lap, what do you think would happen?"

"This one……"

“I have seen you, and I am absolutely not lying. At that time, the Integration Movement had just started, and the siege by Marquis Uskan had not yet begun, so no one knew you yet.

"Once, after planning for several days and nights, we finally rescued a group of infected miners. Big Bob and I went back to congratulate the leader and happened to see her lying... Anyway, we didn't say anything and quietly left. Later, the leader had dinner at Alina's place. At that time, there was a shortage of supplies on the tundra and few rooms for people to live in, so the two of them..."

The Kingslayer couldn't continue and looked at the White Wolf worriedly. She somewhat regretted telling such a secret.

Miss White Wolf thought silently. If this was true, it would explain why Tallulah didn't seem angry after knowing about Platinum.

However, she believed from the bottom of her heart that what the Kingslayer said was 99% not true, and that the other party was probably confused by certain appearances. Alina actually treated Tallulah as her sister.

"You must have misunderstood." White Wolf shook his head and smiled, "I am very familiar with Alina. If there is anything wrong, I will definitely be able to detect it."

"Yeah, I think I misunderstood."

The Regicide immediately agreed, saying that this matter was too dangerous and as an outsider, it would be better for her not to get involved.

Chapter 2023 New Cadres - 08 11-12-00 01::

After the episode about Alina, the Kingslayer once again mentioned the issue that concerned him most, which was Tallulah's commission.

In response, Miss White Wolf, who had already made arrangements, said: "You can rest assured that I will use the help of some Ursus nobles to settle this matter."

"Ursus nobles..." The Kingslayer chewed on White Wolf's words, "White Wolf, I really don't understand you now."

"Didn't Tallulah tell you about my situation?"

"She has only told us old cadres and the only new cadre that you are using your noble identity to carry out special missions. If we see it, we must not expose you."

"That's true. Hey, who is that new cadre you're talking about? It seems like Tallulah trusts him quite a bit."

"Nine," Kingslayer answered. "She is also the fastest promoted person in the organization. She is now almost Tallulah's deputy. If it weren't for her ability, I would have suspected that the leader promoted her for some other reason."

Bai Lang suddenly remembered that Tallulah seemed to have mentioned Jiu, but did not tell her more details. In any case, she felt that it would definitely be a risky action to quickly promote cadres in a short period of time.

"How did Jiu get into the organization?" she asked.

The King Slayer looked at the White Wolf and said, "It has something to do with you, too."

"I?"

"Well, we had a large amount of Originium ore to sell before, and you provided a channel to transport it to Longmen. Jiu contacted us during the trade. I later investigated her specifically, but unfortunately I only learned that she was related to the Longmen slums and was an infected person. I don't know the rest of the situation."

"Does Tallulah know this?"

"It was Tallulah who asked me to investigate."

Miss White Wolf observed the King Slayer's expression and said, "Do you have something to say about Nine?"

The King Slayer nodded and asked hesitantly, "White Wolf, you have been to Longmen before, right? I remember that when we first met, you were with the people from Longmen."

"Yes, that's right. I am quite familiar with Longmen."

"So what do you think of the Longmen Guard Bureau?"

"One of the best law enforcement agencies, why mention the Guards?"

"I privately suspect that Jiu has a connection with the Longmen Guard Bureau. I wonder if the Guard Bureau will place spies in other places."

"I do not quite understand."

"It's like this. I have done a special investigation. The contact persons for our previous Originium Mine business were basically all mafia members. They were not ordinary mafia members, but people from the Rat King Lin family. In addition, I have learned about Jiu's various situations. Based on comprehensive speculation, I think she might have been sent by the Guard Bureau to investigate the Originium Mine business. But the strange thing is that our Originium Mine business has been closed for a long time, and Jiu has not reacted in any special way. This makes me feel that I am overthinking."

"Not necessarily." White Wolf pondered, "I'll remember this. If I go to Longmen, I'll find a way to investigate it. You just need to keep an eye on it."

"Ok."

Miss White Wolf nodded, sat up, and looked at the cool red-tailed wolf again with new eyes: "King Slayer, how do you know so many things?"

"After we went south, the assassination team was reorganized. We are responsible for intelligence missions." The King Slayer said, "But now we have picked up our old job again and work part-time in the cleaning department."

Miss White Wolf then remembered that the other party had mentioned this matter a long time ago. She simply didn't know how to adapt to the new identity of the King Slayer's 'intelligence chief' because they hadn't seen each other for too long.

"Thank you for your hard work," she said sincerely.

"It's okay. Besides, the new job isn't very busy. The law enforcement team has done everything that needs to be done. We just deal with some that slipped through the net."

"When I left, there seemed to be no law enforcement team."

"Well, the law enforcement team was formed by General Patriot himself after we went south. I didn't understand it at first. I thought, aren't we going to fight against the nobles who oppress the infected? Why do we have to set up a law enforcement team first and point swords at our own people?"

"What do you think now?"

"General Patriot is indeed an old veteran, with a far-sighted vision that people like me cannot compare to. If we don't care about anything, like a pile of loose sand, and just talk about revenge every day, then there is really no need for a law enforcement team. But if we want to go further, to make people recognize us, to let people know that we are not avengers or terrorists who are blinded by anger, then we must have military discipline."

Hearing this, Miss White Wolf could not help but smile. She really wanted to go back to the Reunion Movement to have a look, but unfortunately that kind of thing would probably not work. She was an aristocrat in name only, and her sudden trip to Uno City was already out of the ordinary. She could not take any more risks.

The Kingslayer had to rush back to the Integration Movement to report, so she couldn't stay with White Wolf for too long. The two chatted for a while, and then she said goodbye in a hurry and left.

The next morning, Miss White Wolf went to Ebony Town with the gendarmerie to inspect the progress of the case.

In fact, because the intelligence she provided was so complete, the murder case had already been confirmed to be closed. The reason she went there was purely because she was worried that the law enforcement process would implicate Ebony Town and cause other uncontrollable things.

Under the watchful eyes of the nobles, the gendarmerie displayed top-notch professionalism, collecting and filing evidence cleanly and efficiently, and handing over the final results to White Wolf for review one by one.

When she returned to the city, it was already afternoon. Miss White Wolf took the authoritative information from the Military Investigation Department and rushed to the newspaper office without stopping. She also "guided" the writing of the new article.

I have to say, running around all day, worrying about everything, and having to play the role of a noble is very tiring in every way.

Miss White Wolf is a person who likes to lie down. When she is busy, she doesn't have time to think too much, but once she is free, she can't help but feel that she is so hard-working, and then starts to think about a lot of messy things.

What is Xiaota doing?

Now that I have done all the things she needed to deal with, does she feel a little more relaxed?

Probably, there is no way to relax, Xiaota has too many things to do, she is the real busy person.

What about platinum?

Calculating the time, she has been back to Casimir for several days. Has she been promoted?

No matter what position she is in, Miss Platinum always seems to find a way to take it easy and live a leisurely life. It's really enviable.

Well... there's no need to be envious. Bai Jin suffered too much in the past, and it's only right that he lives a comfortable life now. Otherwise, it would be unbearable to watch.

But is she too idle?
