Chapter 276: Task Arrangement

Chapter 277 Task Arrangement

Since all the current clues point to the City Lord's Mansion, we can only go find Darles.

"Me? To hold Darles back?"

Youhui was very nervous and counted her fingers. "Well, actually, I have never formally visited Darles. And I heard that he seems to be very lustful and likes petite and plump young girls the most."

"······Romantina, you come with us, just in case." Zhou Qing was silent for a while and decided to let Romantina accompany Youhui to visit Daries.

"What?! You actually want me to accompany Youhui to serve that fat and big-eared pighead?" Romantina didn't know what was wrong with her and said something shocking.

But Zhou Qing was already used to it, so he waved his hand casually and said, "If you think so, it's okay, just don't bring Youhui with you. I'm really afraid that she will be led astray by you."

"Damn you!" Romantina, with her face bare, grabbed Zhou Qing's shoulders and shook them vigorously, even drooling on Zhou Qing's face. "You must be imagining me being humiliated, and then in excitement, you mocked me harshly, right? How shameless!"

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't force your own fantasy on me!"

Zhou Qing was dizzy and couldn't bear it anymore, so he grabbed Romantina's shoulders and shook her head. "Get rid of those weird thoughts in your head! Asshole! Your brain spirit is not meant for this kind of thing!"

Watching the two of them playing around, You Hui showed a hint of envy in her eyes——

[Romantina has found a new friend, but when can I find a new friend? ]

"Okay, stop flirting, both of you."

Xiao Wu interrupted.

"Flirting?" Zhou Qing's face changed, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he looked at Xiao Wu seriously, "I hope you can use the words more accurately. I'm teaching Romantina a lesson!"

"Flirting!"

Romantina's reaction was very different from Zhou Qing's. Her face was so red that steam was coming out of it, but she still tried her best to deny it, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Xiao Wu's expression was mocking.

Youhui smiled like an auntie.

Ning Rongrong said "Shame on you".

Only Tang San, who was in silence, suddenly realized that he was always out of tune with these guys because he was too serious and not abnormal enough!

"Ahem, let's get down to business!"

Except for Tang San, who remained an outsider and did not get involved, the others chatted for a long time before being interrupted by Zhou Qing's two coughs.

However, the whole process was not without any gain.

At least, the relationship between Youhui and Ning Rongrong in the small team is much closer than before.

"Youhui, since you also have a reason to find out the truth, then it is imperative to visit Darles. We have the same goal."

"You should be more familiar with Romantina's character than we are. She is only bold in words, but when it comes to actions, she is just a quail..." Hearing this, Youhui just nodded, and Romantina was not happy: "What do you mean I am only bold in words? I am also very bold, okay? And Youhui, why are you nodding?"

"If nothing else, you must not dare to show your perversion in front of someone of your fellow noble status!"

Zhou Qing shot an arrow and hit Romantina's heart, turning her into stone.

Seeing that she finally calmed down, Zhou Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He once again secretly sighed that "the team is full of talented people", and then continued what he had not finished saying before, "So, Youhui, you don't need to worry. If Darles really dares to make a move, you can just let Romantina fight him."

"Uh... isn't this bad?" Youhui poked her finger. After all, the truth of everything has not been fully clarified yet. Moreover, in the process of visiting someone's home, directly hitting the person being visited seems, probably, possibly, or perhaps it is an excessive thing to do.

"There's nothing wrong with that. If the other party is really a pervert and wants to take actual action, you will really suffer if you don't take action."

As he spoke, Zhou Qing took the gray bag from his waist and threw it to Romantina. "I'll give you this storage soul guide first. It's mainly for you to temporarily store the Huangwu staff. I guess the guards at the door won't let you in with such a big black stick on your back."

Romantina giggled: "Sure enough, you still trust me the most and actually let me manage the money."

“By the way, even if there’s one bronze soul coin missing, you’ll have to replace it yourself,” Zhou Qing added, and continued to arrange tasks for the rest of the people without paying any attention to Romantina’s stiff expression.

Zhou Qing’s neglect, on the contrary, made Romantina happy again—the feeling of being ignored seemed not bad at all.

"Youhui, if Darles asks why you're visiting, don't talk about your parents, but blame it all on Romantina."

There is nothing that can be done about this. After all, Youhui is too introverted. When she is nervous, she may not even be able to speak clearly. It is better to let Romantina answer.

Romantina is the daughter of Romanyak, the deputy lord of Notting City. Darles knows her and will definitely give her face.

"Then how should I answer?" Romantina calmed down at this time and asked curiously.

"be honest."

Zhou Qing said, "The current clues can all be connected based on the assumptions I made, but if we want to find further solid evidence, we have to 'alert the enemy'...

I think all so-called conspiracies have the following two things in common:

First, the fewer people who know about it, the better;

Second, the sooner it is completed, the better.

The logic is also very simple, because the more people know, the longer it will take to complete, and various other factors will be mixed in, especially people's thoughts, emotions, personalities, etc., which will change to a certain extent with life experiences... In simple terms, the more people know, the more different people will have different ideas about the conspiracy, and they cannot be completely unified with each other. As time goes by, this difference will be infinitely magnified, resulting in great differences in personal subjective initiative, which in turn leads to extremely tortuous processes for the conspirators to achieve their goals. "

Tang San agreed with this very much. After all, he had also read Romance of the Three Kingdoms in his previous life. The various strategies in the novel were very popular, but they did have the two characteristics mentioned by Zhou Qing.

If many people know about the plan and it takes more than half a month to complete it, then the probability of the plan achieving its corresponding goal will drop sharply.

But the people and families behind Luoxing City have been planning for more than two hundred years!

This violates the two points raised by Zhou Qing.

"Not really."

Seeing Tang San raised this point, Zhou Qing explained, "First of all, judging from the fact that all the city lords of previous generations have died of illness, the only person who knows about this conspiracy is probably that person himself, or in other words, those individuals with a single martial spirit..."
