After the Legend Chapter 12: The secret battle between men (part 2)

Emon waved his hand with a smile: "You're welcome, I just happened to come to see you too. How are you doing recently? I saw the report you sent, do you have any new news now? Ah, May I go in for a cup of tea?"

"Of course." Anlong invited him to the living room to sit down, and motioned for Marshall, who was a little rude just now, to take the child down to make tea, but Minna was very attached to him at this time, and quickly hugged his arm. Willing to let go. Anlong couldn't help but feel anxious. Amon's position was still unclear. If he showed his tricks later, it would be too dangerous for his daughter to be present.

Amon still smiled: "Forget it, let the child stay here, she obviously needs her father's comfort. Is it? Little baby?" He smiled kindly to Minna. Minna shrank into her father's arms.

Anlong didn't want to be too deliberate, so he didn't insist any longer, and Marshall withdrew. Anlong looked at his boss and said cautiously: "I have never... there is news over there, maybe you can order others to participate in the search?" He deliberately hid Veronica's name, lest his daughter reveal anything news to come.

"Alas, dear Anlong, you can't imagine how busy we are, we have so few people and are scattered all over the place, it is difficult to conduct a large-scale search, and it is not easy to make this kind of thing public, after all we The security agency has a bad image in the eyes of the public. Besides, Veronica and Gamma, who had been there before, are both sent by the General Administration, and we have no idea of ​​the tasks they are going to perform, and we don't know where to start. Let's check. Maybe, you know a little inside story?" Fatty Amon said while paying attention to Ming Na's reaction. He noticed that when Minna heard the words "Veronica", she moved slightly, but was suppressed by Anlong.

Anlong felt a little helpless in his heart, but his face was still calm: "Actually... I only heard Veronica say that she was here to replace Jiama. That gentleman seemed to be negligent in his duties." The unfortunate colleague said sorry, "Her mission is just to go to the intelligence station in Maicheng to bring Jiama back, if necessary, maybe with the latest information. This is just a very ordinary mission, at most three or four It will be resolved in the days, but she still has no news, I am really disturbed."

"Oh?" Amon raised his eyebrows, "I heard... your wife quarreled with you because of Veronica? Obviously, you have an extraordinary friendship with that beautiful lady. ..." He gave An Long a smile that all men could understand, and suddenly said: "I heard that you are planning to travel together?"

Anlong's heart tightened, and he quickly smiled: "Actually, my wife misunderstood. Before Veronica set off for Maiton, she once asked me to accompany her on a trip, purely out of work needs. But my wife was adamant against it and I had to give in. But she has been bringing it up ever since. To be honest, if it wasn't for the secrecy code in the department, I would have liked to tell my wife the truth, but unfortunately it was not Possibly. So when we . >

Emon nodded understandingly: "Actually, this is also the sadness of those of us. In the past, my wife couldn't accept that I always came back in the middle of the night with injuries on my body, but it's much better now, take it slow. Well."

Anlong was taught carefully, and an idea suddenly came to his mind: "Veronica is missing, since you can't send too many people to search, maybe, I can take advantage of the May Day to go to Maiton and Maiden. City to inquire about her news? Can you grant me a few days off?"

When Ming Na heard this, her eyes widened immediately: "Dad! You can't go! Mom said..."

"Ming Na! You're back? It's great, Grandpa really misses you." Xiao Tianjian had been listening in the corridor for a while, and when he saw that his granddaughter had a tendency to leak secrets, he immediately came out to save the scene.

Seeing him, Ming Na hesitated for a while, but rushed over: "Grandpa!" Xiao Tianjian hugged her lovingly and kissed her little cheek: "Did you miss Grandpa?" "Yes, I really miss her. Think." Ming Na quickly sued her father, "Grandpa, Dad just now..." She opened her mouth, and suddenly found that she couldn't make a sound, and then her body gradually softened, and she could only lie on Grandpa's shoulder. What's going on here? Is she sick?

Xiao Tianjian smiled and patted the child on the back: "Don't worry, I will tell him. Poor child, you must have slept last night, okay? Now that you are home, you can rest assured."

Ming Na was a little flustered, what the **** is grandpa talking about? But she can't move now, only a pair of eyeballs are rolling.

Xiao Tianjian didn't look at his granddaughter's eyes, but just smiled at Amon: "I made you laugh, the child is ignorant."

"No...how could it be?" The big fat man was obviously very surprised, "You...you are Your Excellency Earl Xiao? God of Light is above! When I joined the Security Agency twenty-eight years ago, I met you once. Thinking that your appearance has not changed at all! Could it be that..." He lowered his voice, "Is that rumor true? Did you really have a deal with the owner of Long Island?"

Xiao Tianjian laughed: "That's just a rumor. If there is such a medicine, I wouldn't mind dealing with the dragon. In fact, I'm just good at taking care of myself. I'm healthy and happy, so I naturally look young. "

"Oh...is that so?" The big fat man smiled politely, but the expression on his face showed that he didn't believe this statement.

Anlong coughed lightly, and when Amon turned to look at him, he asked, "I just asked, what do you think?"

Amon hesitated: "Uh... I don't think it's very good. If others are aware of it, it will lead to all kinds of false rumors. Moreover, forget Maiton, Maicheng may be in danger, you know, our Every hand is precious."

"I won't let anyone find out about my whereabouts, even if it's just to go to Maiton and ask the merchants who attended the fair at the time. It's precisely because everyone's hands are precious that I hope to find out. After all, something happened to the people sent by the General Administration, and if we don't do anything, we will also be considered dereliction of duty in the future."

"This... that's also true..." Eamon pondered, "Okay, but I hope you can only search within the area of ​​Maiton, and let me know as soon as there is news." He revealed A sincere smile: "I hope I can help you as much as possible, and you can tell me anything you need."

Anlong showed a grateful smile on his face: "It's very kind of you, if it's not too much trouble, can you tell me the list of people stationed in Maiton? Maybe I can ask them for help, but my colleagues elsewhere I don't know anything." He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and finally had an upright reason to leave Edon without causing Amon's suspicion.

Amon quickly gave two names, which Anlong memorized. At this time, Marshall, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, served black tea and cakes. The big fat man was very happy to taste a little, and he began to praise the products of the Xiao family tea shop and the secret food made by the Xiao family, and then began to compliment Xiao Tianjian's various achievements.

Marshall behaved like a noble housekeeper, bowed politely, and stepped back quietly, but when passing by Xiao Tianjian, he asked in a low voice, "Please let me send the young lady back to the room. ."

Xiao Tianjian smiled, handed Ming Na to him gently, and patted her head again. With her big eyes still open, Minna was carried out of the hall weakly by Marshall.

Marshall took her back to her room and asked softly, "Little Mingna, what's the matter with you?" Mingna couldn't speak or move, so anxious that she burst into tears. Seeing this, Marshall hurriedly checked it, and after thinking about it, he probably guessed what was going on: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this is Lord Earl's unique martial art, it will only make people unable to move or make a sound, but after half an hour It will return to normal, even if it can't, Lord Earl has a solution. I have seen Lord Earl use this method to make fun of others before."

Ming Na had red eyes and felt very aggrieved. Why did Grandpa tease her like this?

In the living room at this time, the three men have started a new topic. Amon warmly invited Xiao Tianjian to the northern fortress to celebrate the May Day, and called him an idol in the hearts of all security personnel.

Xiao Tianjian flatly refused: "I remember you said that the security personnel under your administration are scattered all over the place, and even if I go, they will not see me."

"Uh... that's true..." Amon coughed lightly and said a little embarrassedly, "Well... Although everyone has to stick to their posts according to the regulations, to be honest, people like us are usually I am very lonely, so I always look forward to getting together with my companions occasionally. In fact, we have such a gathering just before the May Festival. Most of the people in the northern jurisdiction will come to my place, and they must also hope to see you. I am more eager to hear your adventure stories.”

He turned to Anlong again and said, "If you go too, maybe you can ask everyone to help find Miss Veronica, don't you know her situation better? Although it is difficult to send people to search, but If people from all over the world volunteered to help you, it might be useful."

Anlong tried hard to make himself look hesitant and hopeful. To be honest, if he hadn't contacted Veronica long ago, he might have been moved by this. After all, it was not much different from what he "proposed" earlier, and the effect might be better. He really had no reason to refuse this arrangement.

Amon continued to persuade: "Go, even if you want to find someone, Anlong, at least His Excellency the Earl can participate. Most of you have never seen the appearance of that young lady, and I really don't know how to find it. Your Excellency the Earl, see you Haven't you been to that lady? You don't want to go, is it because you have something urgent to do?"

"It's hard to be kind. I think it's possible to have a couple of drinks with everyone. But Anlong will be leaving soon to find someone, so I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until then. After all, Veronica is my best friend. My friend's daughter, we are all worried about her safety." Xiao Tianjian responded quickly.

Amon's face glowed: "Oh, that's great, I'll go back and tell everyone, everyone will be too excited to sleep! Oops, what are you going to tell us? It's from the Elven Forest. Have you heard of it? Or an adventure in Mt Toure?"

Xiao Tianjian smiled and said to his son, "Send to Mr. Amon."

"You are very kind." Emon said, "But I really don't want to waste my colleagues' time. I know the way here, so I can just walk by myself."

Xiao Tianjian was unmoved: "Let him send you, you brought our little Mingna back, which is what we are most grateful for. Anlong, please Mr. Amon to eat at the good restaurant in the northern fortress. Take it as a report on his kindness. I know there's a nice shop there and the steaks are well done."

Eamon was so happy that his beard was about to blow: "I'm just doing my best, you really don't need to be so polite."

Although Anlong didn't quite understand his father's intentions, he did so. He escorted Amon out of the house, then rode him all the way back to the North Fortress, and treated him to delicious steaks and fine wines in the best restaurants. He was very fortunate that he had just received this month's salary in the morning, but I am afraid that he will have to live frugally in the next days.

After eating and drinking, Amon hiccupped with satisfaction, put his arms on Anlong's shoulders kindly and said, "Brother Anlong, I know you must be mad at me, but it's not that I don't want to help. You look for that lady, in fact, I don't want her to have an accident more than you. However, you have to understand my situation, I also have my difficulties."

Anlong raised his eyebrows: "Please talk about it, maybe I can share your worries for you."

"Good brother, you are really good!" Amon patted him on the shoulder vigorously, looked around, then leaned in front of him and whispered, "I think you probably heard about it? Director at the end of the year She is about to retire. The deputy director, Ms. Lia, is of course her successor, but the position of the deputy director is said to be selected from the district directors. I, because of the oldest seniority, is naturally one of the popular candidates. To be honest, I I have no interest in that position, but others don't necessarily think so, so they always regard me as a thorn in their side. In the past six months, I have been charged with a lot of crimes. Although it's all petty, but if they want to frame it, I'm afraid I can't even keep my current seat."

Anlong made a slow "oh" sound.

Eamon continued to slap him vigorously on the back: "You probably think this is all a dirty political fight, right? Young man, it's not that I want to fight people, it's that people won't let me go~IndoMTL.com~ I'm a little unsure about what happened this time. Maybe Mr. Garma and Miss Veronica have found some important information, so they will delay their return. If we act rashly and sabotage their plan, maybe On the contrary, they will be misunderstood. Logically speaking, Nuojia is not an enemy country, so there should be no danger. They have not heard back for a long time, which is really strange. I don’t want to speculate on what the two special envoys are doing, but they are both It's someone sent by the General Administration. It's hard to say if you have any other plans. You've been working under me for a few years. You know how I am, although I don't expect your family to support me. , but at least I hope you won't take the side of those who oppose me just because you listened to a few gossip."

Anlong frowned, looking at his boss who seemed to be a little drunk. And Amon inadvertently swept across the restaurant, snapped his fingers to summon the waiter, and ordered another glass of wine. Finally, they left the restaurant only after Anlong reluctantly paid out two-thirds of his salary. Amon was always smiling and in a very happy mood.

When An Long returned home, it was almost evening. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his father waiting for him in the house. Xiao Tianjian raised his head and said, "I took Veronica over quietly, lest the fat man find out her whereabouts. She is sleeping in the nanny's room now. Seeing that her injuries are recovering well, it is estimated that you will be able to do it in a few days. Let's go."

An Long nodded: "So you asked me to send Amon back and invite him to dinner, so as to spare him for this matter? It should be no problem, he has never been in contact with other people." After thinking about it, he still told his father what Amon had said to him earlier.

Xiao Tianjian frowned after hearing this: "What is this mess? What does he mean?"
