The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 392: The situation is getting tense

"Her Highness Kafni seems to be on the move, is that okay?"

The speaker is Eugene Geraint.

He rushed over early in the morning and asked Annan worriedly: "Did you ask her to come?"

"No."

Annan gave a very clear answer.

——But it doesn’t matter, she can come anytime she wants.

This is Annan's reply.

It is better to say that when he realized that the situation was gradually becoming tense, Annan no longer regarded "Rosberg" as a safe place.

Especially now that the old bread has left.

If someone really wants to harm Kaifni, he is beyond his reach.

In this case, it is safer to let Kaifni stay with him and get the protection of Paper Princess.

"That's how you see it..."

Eugene nodded thoughtfully.

After Zhi Ji conducted numerous reviews in private, she was finally able to judge that this person was generally harmless to Annan, and that he was a friend who could be made and would be beneficial to Annan's future.

She finally let in Eugene, who came to visit every day——

Although Annan was very grateful to Zhiji for her unusually cautious care, he could not help but feel a little amused by her nervousness.

This also made Annan feel the nostalgia and warmth of his parents and relatives paying attention to the environment in which he made friends at school...

After Annan and Eugene chatted for a long time about the political situation in the royal capital, he made up his mind to move back to Geraint's house from the high-end hotel.

On the one hand, this is to establish a good relationship with the Geraint family, on the other hand, it is to obtain important information as quickly as possible, and on the other hand, it is also for own safety considerations...

In addition, part of the reason is that Annan doesn't want Zhi Ji to spend any more money.

...The cost of the King Noah Hotel is really too expensive.

With Zhi Ji and Annan living in the same room, their daily accommodation fee alone - not even counting food and the money she spent buying things for Annan, would cost one hundred and thirty pounds.

This is roughly equivalent to one thousand five hundred silver coins per night.

Annan felt so luxurious and heartbroken just looking at it.

Although it is not your own money, you cannot spend your elders’ money carelessly...

It's better to live at Geraint's house.

At least if nothing else, the food, housing and security are much better than the King Noah Hotel.

——You know, the backyard of Geraint's house and the back garden of the palace are directly connected.

The security forces of Geraint's family are serious King's Guards.

It is still a mixture of royal guards and secret troops. It is not a protective circle that can be bypassed by blending into one party. Coupled with the several surveillance circles arranged by the One-Eyed Crow, it is difficult for even a gold-level transcendent to sneak in.

From Annan's point of view, moving to Geraint's house is a good choice in all aspects.

But seeing Annan being tricked into the house by Eugene in just one day, Zhi Ji suddenly looked worried and followed him directly.

Although this made Annan feel safe, it still felt a bit subtle.

It’s like when you go to a classmate’s house to stay overnight, your aunt or sister doesn’t worry and just follows you over...

Fortunately, Your Excellency Eugene's diplomatic power is still very stable.

The heartfelt kindness to others, as well as the attitude of listening carefully and taking others' words seriously, are enough to gain Zhiji's recognition of him as a person.

Zhi Ji only requested that she must be present when Eugene and Annan were talking - she said that there were no special circumstances and she would not disturb the conversation between the two.

Eugene also knew very well that Zhiji was worried that Annan would be deceived by him...

...but how is that possible.

If Master Zhi Ji really cares about you, you will be confused.

Eugene sighed secretly.

He knew very well that His Highness Annan was not that innocent child. When he was chatting with Annan, he was even more stressed than when he was chatting with the earls and marquises - he always felt that he might have been tricked by Annan into getting some information unconsciously.

Of course, this is also because of the difference in status between them.

Annan, as the Duke of Winter who is about to succeed to the throne, is a future **** - most likely even a false **** of a certain true god. The status gap between them is really too big.

This requires Eugene Geraint, as the future successor of the Crow family, to always control the social distance between himself and Annan. He only dares to stay in the position of "friend" and does not dare to be rude or disrespectful for a moment. Not daring to move forward an inch.

After all, what he wants to take care of and please is not just "Annan".

The power in the hands of the Geraint family must be the power of the future His Majesty.

If his relationship with Annan is too close, the king will be more afraid of the Geraint family.

As the head of the highest intelligence agency, you have such a good relationship with the supreme ruler of a neighboring country... Can I suspect that there is something wrong with you?

If they were normal nobles, it would be a good thing that they were so feared by the king.

Because this means that the king will not easily trust their words, but will not easily ignore their words - this gives them a natural lofty status in the social circle of the nobles, and can even become the center of social interaction. For example, "around the Geraint family social circle" or something like that.

But the position of the Geraint family does not allow them to get close to the nobles.

An intelligence agency that does not obey the king, is not trusted by the king, and is unclear with the nobles has no value in existence.

At that time, the "loyalty to the royal family" that the Geraint family had previously stabbed many nobles in the back would become a lever for them to spit out their benefits.

Similarly, whether it is to Kaifni or the other princes.

Eugene just remained polite and distant.

——This is the way of survival for the Crow Clan.

The crow can only stand on the crown.

As for his eldest brother Ferdinand Geraint’s aide behavior of decisively choosing one of them to serve before the heir was chosen and trying to increase the possibility of him being selected, this was actually Very taboo by the king.

Therefore, Ferdinand was completely unaware that the more he helped His Highness Philip, the less His Majesty would choose His Highness Philip...

However, what surprised Eugene was that Philip did not realize this.

Different from his eldest brother who just looks very stable.

Although Philip chewed toffee every day and looked cheerful, he often went out to play with his friends and subordinates. He seemed to be just a very stylish and interesting player. For these I don't care much about interpersonal and political matters.

But Eugene has a lot of secret information at hand.

It was easy for him to see ~IndoMTL.com~ that Philip was a pretty smart guy.

He is actually much smarter than the eldest princess. You can tell just by looking at the fact that he leaves no traces when doing things - this does not mean that others cannot detect that he did it, but that even if others are aware of Philip's presence behind him, they cannot. Clearly aware of what he wants and what purpose he wants to achieve through this matter.

Eugene even suspected that his eldest brother might himself be Philip's pawn.

And, mentioning Philip...

He had to mention to Annan the new capable man Philip had recently acquired.

Eugene asked Annan who was in deep thought: "Is that man named Delicious Wind Goose the person you sent?"

Because the other party's acting skills are so good, even Eugene can't be sure. Did Delicious Wind Goose really betray Annan, or was he a spy sent in by Annan...

When Annan heard this, he just smiled slightly.

No answer.
