On a dark and windy night, even the Ice Peak City, full of celebration, has become much more.

Yag quietly walked to an alley, looked around carefully, and then he quickly got into it.

The thick dark clouds blocked the only moonlight, and Yag could only grop and move forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Then, he came to a wooden barrel deep in the alley and gently opened the round cover on the wooden barrel...

"Don't make a sound, boy."

A cold, chilling voice sounded from behind Yag. At the same time, a cold and sharp dagger also pressed against his waist.

“……………………”

Yag's body shook slightly, but he still gritted his teeth and forced his body not to tremble.

"Who sent you?"

"I, I don't know..."

Faced with this question, Yag was secretly complaining. He had asked this question as early as the first time he met this man. Fortunately, he wrote a letter to him as a shield, and the man did not do anything to him in the end. But this time, why did he ask the same question again? Although Yag was confused, he could not answer at all. Because even he didn't know who those two people were.

"You're lying."

The voice was old and low. But Yag felt a stinging pain behind her. The cold foreign object inserted into her body made him almost scream.

"If you don't say it, I'll kill you."

"You...even if you kill me, I don't know."

Yag did not wail or beg for mercy. I don't know why. He always felt that the man who became his master was more terrifying than this man. Especially when he was watching him, even if he didn't have any weapons on his hands, Yag would have the illusion that it seemed like a lion opened his mouth and bit his throat. And he also said that if he dared to do something extra, then his sister's life would be unsafe.

Thinking of this, Ge seemed to have a lot of courage from the bottom of his heart. He gritted his teeth, shook his head and forced himself to raise one hand.

"This is, my lord, the second letter."

“……………………”

There was no sound behind her back, but Yage felt that the letter had been pulled away by the other party. This made Yage feel a little suspicious. In such a dark night, even if he couldn't see things clearly, could this person still see them?

"no."

Soon the man's voice came from behind again.

"Go back and tell your master, this is really dangerous."

“…………………But, my master said that you must do what you say in the letter, and it doesn’t matter whether you succeed or not.”

Yag gritted his teeth and continued.

“………Who is your master?”

The dagger behind him stabbed deeper.

"I have no idea."

Yag still insisted.

"Hmph, don't know? It doesn't matter if you don't know... Anyway, a guy like you who doesn't even have the right to know the owner's name is probably just a few low-key people."

The voice behind him was a little angry.

"But I am not a humble person! Tell your master that if he doesn't come to see me in person, then refuse his request!"

“That’s impossible.”

After thinking about it, Yag's courage also became stronger. After all, when people find that they are too old, they will become more free and easy.

"My master told me that with your status, you are not qualified to meet him. You are only worthy of his mission and orders like me. As for his identity, I think the letter should be clearly stated, right?"

“……………………”

The voice behind him was silent again.

Indeed, the stamp on the envelope clearly came from the Council. However, because of this, the man felt more and more worried. You should know that only members of the Council are qualified to use this stamp. This is the capital of the Ice Peak City, Fieldney. How could a member of the Council enter here with a swagger? However, the magic mark on the stamp cannot be forged. It is precisely because of this that the man is extremely worried and even a little uneasy. What's more, the other party clearly does not intend to reveal his identity. Although he has sent someone to follow this guy, Yag always walks into a hotel where only the superior nobles can live, which makes the man even more incomprehensible.

A member of the Council came to Fieldney and actually lived in a place where superior nobles could live. What's wrong? Aren't they afraid of revealing their identities? Or... they have betrayed the empire?

You know, Field Niko and Yuria have always had a disagreement.

The content in this letter made men feel even more incomprehensible.

It said that he hoped that he could send some people to cause some crimes on a large scale in civilian areas, including murder, forced robbery, and theft... It would be better if it could be extended to the noble areas.

What exactly does this mean?

No matter who the person who gave the order was, didn't he know that in this way

, Rarely causing such an unusual crime will only make the royal city raise the police. And, you know, this is on the eve of the king's birthday celebration. No matter what he wants to do, it will only attract other people's attention, right?

As a spy and a spy leader, how could he do such an act that is equivalent to digging his own grave?!

In fact, this man had already vaguely guessed who would give such an order.

After all, as the head of a secret spy who is responsible for missions at the center of the enemy country, he also noticed some changes in Yuliya.

But even though the other party was a member of the judging board, he still believed that this approach was really inappropriate.

"The letter is indeed very clear."

Thinking of this, the man spoke toughly.

"But, I will never do this unless he has a reason to convince me."

"So, what kind of reason do you want?"

Just as the man's voice fell, a sound suddenly sounded, which surprised the man. He even felt that the person seemed to be nearby as if he was behind him.

What a joke! Someone can get close to him without being discovered?!

"Yag can go back."

Yi Ming gave Yag an order with a hint of coldness. The boy nodded, then forced the wound on his back and walked out of the alley step by step.

“You are………………”

"I think, you know who I am."

Yi Ming did not answer the man's question. He stood behind the man in black and stared at his back.

"Otherwise you won't call me you."

“…………………”

Although the man remained silent, his heart was thunderous. This was the first time since he became the leader of a spy.

"I don't say much about anything else, just do as I say."

"But…………"

"No, but."

Yi Ming interrupted the other party's defense.

"I don't like to explain to others, especially those I'm not familiar with, so now I only ask you to take care of your own affairs, do what you should do, and don't care about the issues you shouldn't care about. Don't try to participate in actions that you cannot participate in, and don't want to give me any suggestions. I'll give orders to execute."

"I'm sorry, please forgive me for not being able to do it."

The man shook his head firmly.

"It is the duty of soldiers to obey orders. Even if the country lets them die, they will never complain. However, we are different people. We are spies and spies. Our priority is not to expose our identity and maintain and deliver messages. You do not understand the situation here, and you do not know what will happen once you do this. We... cannot take risks."

"I didn't want you to take risks."

Yi Ming didn't say much.

"And, I didn't let you really do it yourself."

“Sir, you mean……………”

Hearing this sentence, the man asked in confusion, but he did not get any answer. After waiting quietly for a while, the man hesitated and turned around, but at this moment, there was no one behind him.

(You are back.)

When Yiming walked into the guest room, he was greeted by Meiyali's smile as gentle as before, as well as a cup of sweet and delicious black tea. Yiming didn't say anything, so he walked over and sat next to Meiyali, then picked up the black tea and drank it all. The warm black tea quickly restored his body, which was originally a bit cold in the middle of the cold winter night.

(How is the situation?)

Holding his soft body leaning against his arms, Yi Ming just answered with a smile that was the same as usual.

"no problem."

(Are you sure?)

"I'm sure."

Even though he was lying in Yi Ming's arms, he didn't see his expression. Mei Yali could guess that Yi Ming must have a look of a treacherous plan at this moment.

"If he can't do this, then I can consider going back and suggesting to the Lord of Heaven to replace him."

(Well...you are still as cunning.)

"Thank you for the compliment."

Yi Ming reached out to caress Mei Yali's long hair. Perhaps even Mei Yali herself didn't feel that in this winter, she relied on Yi Ming more than usual. Although the two of them had such close contact in their spare time, this situation is still very rare.

Sure enough, she still couldn't get out of the shadow of that time.

While stroking Meyali's long hair, Yi Ming sighed a little. However, under the current circumstances, he had no choice. Although they no longer lived a life full of dangers every day in this world as before. However, the pain left to them by that world is not so easy to eliminate. Yi Ming had no other way, he could only wait and wait for Meyali to come out by himself.
