The Emerald Tower

Chapter 129: Auctions.

As Dean expected, after the last auction item was sold, the waiter began to rearrange the hall. The square tables and chairs were moved in, while the original guests in the hall walked to the side hall to take a rest-Dean Of course, he was not interested in listening to these nobles talking about the previous auction. After he signaled to the lady of the Baron Tyre that he was going out to get some air, he left the side hall like this. (Starting)

It is naturally not easy to find someone in an old castle.

However, if this person is the owner of the castle, it is much easier.

After all, even in the castle, the owner of the castle had his own guard next to him. Although the Marquis of Vauban was not a luxury person, his protection was still very important.

At least, at the previous auction, Dean could still feel the vigilance of the Baron James.

Undoubtedly, at that time, Baron Chandu was the guard of the Marquis of Vauban.

After leaving the hall, Baron Chandu would naturally not be able to follow up, but there would be no shortage of guards beside the Marquis of Vauban.

What's more, Dean also knows the path of the first half when the opponent leaves--

"There are three doors in the hall, one leads to the side hall and the other to the front hall square, and the one that the Marquis of Vauban walked leads to the back yard...here!"

Dean, who had locked the general direction, quickly discovered something.

At the door of a room beside the promenade, two heavily armed guards were standing there, and the knight-level status indicated the noble status of the protected person in the room.

In the castle of Vauban, there is no one except the Marquis of Vauban.

Dean stood in the shadow on the side of the promenade, and the sunset glow provided him with a good shelter. but. It's not night after all. If you want to get close, it is really difficult for Dean; if it is two ordinary people, he can still try it, but if it is two knights, especially in Fort Vauban, Dean will definitely not dare to take it lightly. adventurous.

"Did Mader act and shirk his responsibility? Or did the'Brotherhood' release some smoke in advance?"

Dean stood in a shadow of intersecting light and darkness, without looking away from the room. The bottom of my heart is to continue the previous guess.

Of course, before seeing anyone in the room except the Marquis of Vauban, Dean could not make the final inference.

Fortunately, Dean knew that this conversation would not last long.

After all, the Marquis of Vauban, as the host, will definitely appear in the hall before the dinner begins.

The setting sun gradually receded, and black began to appear in the sky.

And the door of the room that Dean had been watching was opened at this moment--

The Marquis of Vauban came out, and then the door closed slowly.

"what?!"

Dean was startled slightly. The surprise on his face was hard to hide, in his expectation. The people in the room should have left with the Marquis of Vauban.

However, now the Marquis of Vauban left alone.

Looking at the approaching Marquis of Vauban, Dean held his breath. When the other party left here with two guards, Dean let out a sigh of relief; however, his body was still standing in the shadow, his gaze looked towards To the room.

Now, far away from the two knight-level guards, if Dean wants to get closer, there is naturally no difficulty.

However, the banquet that was about to begin, if Dean were not there, would obviously attract the attention of some interested people; including the Marquis of Vauban.

For this old fox in the same camp, Dean never dared to underestimate it.

And once the other party's suspicion is aroused, it is quite unfavorable for Dean; after all, some of his details can't stand scrutiny at all before he is thoroughly arranged.

If it is exposed, it will naturally fall short.

Dean will never let his whole plan go wrong because of what is in front of him.

Therefore, after another glance at the room, Dean quickly retreated back to the side hall——

"Hurry up, the banquet is about to begin!"

The young lady from Baron Tyre's house looked at Dean who walked in and immediately walked over.

Obviously, because of Dean's ‘rejection’ of the Marquis of Vauban before, the baron’s lady was in a good mood, and her senses for Dean changed again.

Of course, this does not mean that the resentment in my heart for Dean has disappeared. It is only because of Dean's performance that the young lady temporarily buried this resentment in her heart.

As for how much will disappear?

The girl's heart is like a needle in the sea, and people who want to guess are all fools.

"Ok!"

Dean nodded slightly, and walked into the hall side by side with the lady from Baron Tyre's house beside him.

For the jealous look in the eyes of Baron Jenr beside him?

Dean simply ignored it.

The banquet was as boring as ever, as if it was a reprint of yesterday-in fact, most banquets will attract people's attention the first time.

However, for the second and third time, only boredom is left.

After all, no one wants to experience the same things.

Therefore, everyone who attended the banquet formed their own circle and talked with each other to pass the time.

Of course, in the eyes of some people with special purposes, this is the best time; whether it is joining a certain circle or inquiring about something through a certain circle, it is extremely convenient.

Dean watched the Marquis lord’s assistant Madel wandering in various small circles with a glass of wine, and subconsciously thought of the term ‘social flower’.

The other party obviously has quite good knowledge and cultivation, no matter which circle they are in, they can be smoothly integrated into it, and it drives the overall atmosphere and emits bursts of laughter.

Of course, Dean is not paying attention to this!

The other party seemed to enter the hall earlier than him!

After all, before he entered the hall, the opponent was already standing here-even though he didn't know the name of the opponent just now, but because the position where the opponent was standing was not far from the Marquis of Vauban, the opponent's Dean had already remembered his appearance, but afterwards, the other party's walks and greetings let Dean know the other party's name.

"He can't be faster than me, unless..."

Dean speculated intently.

Dean knew the route from the backyard promenade room back to the hall; after all, it was a clear thing, and on this route, apart from the Marquis of Vauban, he did not see anything else. People; therefore, if Madel was in that room, it would never be faster than him.

Unless the other party will be invisible!

However, this is obviously impossible.

Although wizards are very good at this, they will never use spells for no reason; especially in the situation at that time, obviously the opposite party and the Marquis of Vauban are the most correct choice.

As for the secret path?

There must be a secret road in the castle of Vauban. In fact, every castle has a secret road.

However, it will never connect to a crowded place like the lobby.

The meaning of the secret path itself is for the sake of concealment, and hidden places are inaccessible to ordinary people; for example: the master’s bedroom, study, etc.

"The man in that room is not him!"

In the end, Dean came to this conclusion.

"Who is talking to the Marquis of Vauban in that room?"

Naturally, the last conclusion was reached, and this conclusion appeared in Dean's heart.

However, that wide range made Dean impossible to get an answer.

What's more, Mader, who is not far away, has walked over with a wine glass—

"Baron Jandu, good evening... Baron Jenel, I am so happy to see you again... Miss Lily Tyre, you are so beautiful and moving... This, this must be Dean Is Captain Ken? Your recent fame is really impressive to me!"

Madel smiled and greeted Dean's group of people.

It's hard to imagine that in such a short sentence, this Lord Madr has done everything; moreover, they all set out according to the differences of each person.

Undoubtedly, such greetings are extremely easy to get the favor of others.

At least, that Baron Jenel was already smiling again and again.

And the young lady of Baron Tyre also smiled.

As for the serious-faced Baron James?

He didn't frown, and already explained that the other party didn't disgust him.

And Dean?

With a hint of reserved humility on his face, he responded with a smile, just like those noble children.

"It's also nice to meet you, Lord Madr!"

"Head of Dean Ken, your strength is really admirable, Vauban rarely has a young man like you! Where is your hometown?"

"Kaqiu County!"

"It turns out to be the three southern counties! It is under the jurisdiction of the Grand Duke, no wonder..."

"The Grand Duke is a person worthy of respect!"

...

Simple communication begins with such a greeting.

And Dean obviously noticed that this Lord Madr was very interested in him, and he was inquiring about something from time to time—of course, they were all very hidden ones.

Just look at the appearance of the other three people who didn't notice it, and you can know it.

As for the other party's suspicion, Dean gradually turned from guessing to affirming.

The other person has a very familiar smell on his body——

The kind of hypocrisy of walking in the shadows ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ with a mask!

The staff of the Marquis of Vauban had the taste of walking in the shadows... the identity of the other party seemed to be self-evident.

Of course, Dean did not omit the small steps in the original plan because of this.

In fact, it is because it is confirmed.

Dean would consider such a small step necessary.

After all, he must control the entire spy network of Gaosai in Vauban.

And if you want to control the entire network, you naturally have to kill the entrenched second-in-command. Only in this way can his ‘head’ appear!
