Chapter 272 The basic operation of the beater player
Before Annan came out of the secret passage, he had already activated his spell.
——"The Last Work: David".
The person who walked into the secret passage was a nine-year-old child, but what finally came out of the secret passage was a kind-hearted middle-aged man who was half a head shorter than him, with black hair, black eyes, and deep facial features.
"...The height difference is too severe."
Suddenly switching from the body of young Annan to "Ghirlandaio David Buonaro", Annan felt a little dizzy for a moment. After taking two more steps in the secret passage, he finally got used to it.
Basically every time he uses this spell, Annan has to adapt to his height for a period of time in order to re-establish the correct sense of space and distance.
Annan walked out of the corner of the garden and walked along the road to the kitchen.
It wasn't because he was hungry... but because when Annan and Kafni passed by here before, someone showed a flaw.
It was a young man with red curly hair and freckles.
When he saw Annan and Kaifni passing by, he showed a trace of murderous intent towards them for no reason.
Annan and Kafni walked over as if nothing had happened at that time, as if they were not aware of it at all. Therefore, they should not have alerted the enemy.
But let alone Kaifuni... Even with Annan's own perception attributes, the murderous intent at this distance is as clear as a high beam turned on at night.
An important piece of information is that Kaifuni does not recognize him. This means that he is not a high-ranking member of Noah...but he can move around the kitchen freely.
The possibility of that person being from the Principality of Winter is much smaller than this. It can be said to be almost non-existent.
So from this detail, Annan can be sure of one thing.
——This shows that there is a very serious problem with the security system of the palace.
It was obviously at such a critical moment - it was the old king's birthday, and it was also the day when the heir to the principality came to visit. But someone who Kaifuni had never seen sneaked in...
Annan used the image of "David" to walk on the road openly, which was actually a kind of temptation.
He wanted to try to see if he would be stopped.
Not to mention being mistaken for a senior executive of Noah.
At this point in time, except for Michelangelo...it is impossible for almost everyone to know who "David" is.
But he walked over smoothly.
The patrolling guards did notice Annan. But they only watched Annan with some vigilance, but did not question Annan's whereabouts. They just stopped talking and stood there, watching Annan leave without saying a word.
It's simply ridiculously loose.
Annan breathed a sigh of relief instead.
——This just proves another thing.
In other words, these royal guards are not the direct force of the Rofu Church. They were obviously ordered by someone to tell them not to intercept and question strangers during a certain period of time.
So, who is it?
An object of suspicion immediately appeared in Annan's mind.
——Third Prince, Philip Noah.
The man who attempted to murder Don Juan Geraint was also the master of Captain Claus.
Does he have the authority to command the guards?
Many speculations emerged in Annan's mind, and most of them were overturned at the first opportunity.
At this time, Annan had already arrived near the kitchen.
According to Kafni's instructions, Annan speculated that the core of the ritual here should be in the basement of the kitchen.
He saw the sneaky red-haired man again.
He was already standing at the door of the kitchen, arms folded, anxiously waiting for something.
But something that was beyond Annan's expectation was that he, who had shown murderous intent when he saw Annan and Kafni before, actually looked relieved when he saw David.
And there is no hostility whatsoever.
Annan realized this and walked up to him calmly.
At this distance, Annan can use "Eye of Sloth" to paralyze his actions at any time.
After Annan stood still, the man whispered: "Why are you so late?
"Two children just passed by. I won't say any more, I'll leave first...I'll leave the rest to you."
"Two children passed by... Is there really no problem with you?"
Annan's heart moved, and following his words, he asked with some dissatisfaction.
What he asked about the other party was what he had just mentioned. This could reduce the other party's wariness to the greatest extent - if Annan met for the first time, he would suddenly change the subject with "By the way..."
The other party may suddenly become suspicious of Annan.
With Annan's outstanding acting skills and formulaic skills, the man just said impatiently: "It's okay if neither of them goes in anyway... You go quickly. My task here has been completed, I have to leave."
If you don’t leave, you won’t be able to leave.”
Annan glanced at him and walked into the kitchen without saying anything.
But he suddenly realized in his heart——
Many clues and fragments were connected in Annan's mind at that moment:
That's right, Konoe's anomaly that someone had obviously warned about, Kafni's missing mother, how dare this suspicious man stand openly in front of the kitchen...
This can only mean one thing.
These Fu Fu Cultists - assuming they are Fu Fu Cultists, at this time, their corruption of Noah's top brass is not yet deep.
In order to prevent the plan from failing, being captured alive, or someone betraying them, everyone only knows their own part of the mission. In addition, they do not know each other and do not know each other's mission. They only know each other through
Handover tasks using pre-agreed passwords and other means.
There are many people in the kitchen, but they are all busy inside - there are many wooden barrels containing fish at the door.
Annan glanced around.
He found that no one was looking here - no one even saw that he had entered the kitchen.
In front of him was the kitchen basement.
——But you can’t go in at this time.
The "NPC" who completed the handover task cannot suddenly disappear. If Annan took on the identity of a certain person and completed the task handover with him...then even if Annan arrived a few minutes earlier than that person, he could do it after entering the basement.
I'm afraid there aren't many things to do.
After all, time is limited.
These two people will most likely meet on the road...
Annan turned around slightly and looked at the red-haired man who hadn't gone far yet.
"David"'s pupils instantly revealed a fierce light.
Before the red-haired man could leave, Annan followed him quietly.
The moment he approached the man, Annan suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the man's mouth - while pressing the other hand on the man's back, his palm instantly turned blue-black.
——Cold exposure!
The man fainted before he had time to struggle or even make a sound. I'm afraid he didn't know who attacked him until he was unconscious.
Annan easily put him on his shoulders, walked back in three steps, opened the wooden barrel containing the fish, and stuffed the man in randomly. In order to prevent him from waking up in the middle, Annan also used his marble-like
She punched him hard on the back of the head with her fist.
