076 Secret Detective

"Haha..." Leon's first reaction was that this guy was joking again. Wein said that Groka was the spy planted by Eastmonton in Caspars, so how did he get there half an hour ago?

"Selling information to the Grand Duke" to threaten Groka to compromise and explain everything to the letter?

If Groka herself is a member of the Grand Duke, then there is no need for her to be afraid that Wein will sell the information to the Grand Duke...

"Here, the train is here." Wein ignored Leon, who was in a tangle, and raised his chin towards one side of the track.

The rail car roared in and slowly stopped at the platform. Wein got on the train first, found a seat in the back row by the window, and looked at the scenery outside the window with interest.

The railway car is not a good place to discuss issues. Even if the volume is controlled in such a large space, there is no chance that anyone can eavesdrop on the conversation. Leon had no choice but to temporarily put aside his doubts and sit down next to Wein.

Looking at the man next to him, Liang sighed silently. He really admired this guy. Sometimes he looked world-weary and seemed to be ready to die, and sometimes he showed interest in everything.

The only thing that remains unchanged in this huge contrast is probably the characteristic of saying something bad about others from time to time.

After sitting for a few stops, they arrived near the office. The two got out of the car. Liang glanced at the clock tower in the distance: "It's almost noon."

"Yeah, get ready to eat."

Leon twitched his lips, Wei Yin, a guy who didn't really need to eat, was more enthusiastic about eating than normal people.

"You said Groka was the Grand Duke's secret agent. What on earth is going on?" Seeing that there were few people around, Leon lowered his voice and asked the questions he had been holding back along the way.

"It seems from your words that you find it difficult to accept her identity as the Duke of Eastmonton's spy. I don't quite understand this." Wein said, "Why are you so convinced of Ge's identity?"

Isn’t Lorca an agent of the Grand Duke?”

Leon frowned: "Didn't Groka compromise with you just because you threatened to 'sell the information to the Grand Duke'? Moreover, she has been working for Baroque for several years. With her position, she must be strictly scrutinized.

That’s right?”

"Well, you made two mistakes here." Wein shook his head, "First of all, the grand dukes are not a whole. There are eight grand dukes in the United Empire, and each has different interests, factions, and relationships. Even now

The alliance between Hohenlohe and Eastmonton, as well as Kethwaite and Thorenfen, secretly had many conflicts. Half a year ago, Hohenlohe and Eastmonton were still arguing over the ownership of newly discovered mineral veins in several wilderness areas.

And when disputes arose, the diplomats almost got into a fight at the negotiating table."

"Glocka belongs to the Eastmonton side, which does not affect her desire to prevent me from selling the information to Hohenlohe, Anrenzo and other grand dukes. Generally speaking, the fewer people know about intelligence, the better."

"As for the second point... tsk tsk." Wei Yin glanced at Liang, "You just believe whatever others say. When will you remember to change it?"

"Huh?"

"On the surface, I was threatening her, but in fact, is that really the case?" Wein shrugged, "Maybe I was exchanging secret codes with her? Because the secret codes were exchanged, she immediately told me the whole situation.

.”

"So you were correcting the code?!" Leon was shocked.

Wei Yin chuckled: "Of course not, it's just a joke, why do you believe it again?"

Leon: "..."

That's enough!

"It's not a code, but it is indeed a code word with one meaning on the surface and another meaning behind it. This kind of words must not only be understood, but also have enough hints and foreshadowing. You didn't listen to our previous conversation, and you don't know the cause and effect.

"You can only understand the superficial meaning just by listening to this sentence." Wein said, "In general, what I meant at the time was 'I know you are from the Grand Duke, you'd better explain the situation clearly'."

"Groka's attitude is also very clear, 'I'll tell you what happened, but don't make things worse for me.'"

Liang was speechless for a while: "I am the only outsider here, are you two just talking in code to deceive me?"

"You're the only one? Not necessarily." Wein slowed down, "That's Groka's territory, but even Groka himself couldn't be sure how many people were secretly listening at that time. You are so sure that you are the only one."

one?"

"Okay..." There are so many colorful people in this world, and Liang feels that he is still too naive.

At the same time, he also sadly discovered that although he was said to be an assistant, he could not keep up with Wein's thinking. Wein's brain circuit was like a crazy toad, croaking and jumping on the lotus leaf.

, it looked disorganized and illogical, but without paying attention, the toad jumped to the other side and looked at those people who were still blocked by the river with a mocking look on its face.

"What's wrong?" Leon noticed that Wei Yin's speed was getting slower and slower, and finally stopped. However, he hadn't reached the office yet.

"The newsboy over there isn't selling this morning's newspaper, is it?" Wein pointed to one side.

Liang looked over: "Well, it's not true. Why does this newspaper look...a little small?"

Compared with normal newspapers, the ones the newsboys were selling looked about the size of a magazine.

"Well, it seems to be a 'tabloid'."
