Chapter 128
"That's right, we should be wary of that minister."
General Bud nodded slightly.
Due to a series of changes, General Bud's thoughts are very different from those in the original book.
For example, in the original book, General Bud did not know that the "Night Attack" that assassinated Jolly and others was faked by the three beastmen, so he hated the "Night Attack" even more.
So much so that when General Bud finally couldn't stand Minister Ernest anymore, he still thought about annihilating the rebels first, and then personally eradicating the ministers and other internal troubles.
As a result... before that time, he fell into the hands of "Night Attack".
"Also, I seem to have heard your name somewhere?"
At this time, General Bud suddenly asked.
He had some impression of the name Bai Ye, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while.
"Maybe it's because I have held some inconspicuous but somewhat famous positions before."
Bai Ye explained casually.
He did not mention "Xiao" or "Night Attack".
With General Budd's stubborn character, mentioning those things would only have a counterproductive effect.
In General Budd's eyes, it is absolutely impossible to cooperate with the rebels, that is, the revolutionary army.
As a general, he cannot tolerate those who intend to overthrow the empire under his nose.
Chelsi can also roughly realize this, so she did not introduce herself in front of General Budd.
Out of trust in Jolly, General Budd no longer doubted the identities of Bai Ye and the other two.
After a brief exchange, Bai Ye and General Budd reached some cooperation.
"But about the matter of Esdeath, I hope I can solve it myself."
At this time, Bai Ye put forward a condition.
"No problem, you can deal with her."
General Budd nodded.
Hearing this, Hei Tong's mouth bulged slightly.
The commander is so concerned about the matter of Esdeath......
............
Next, Jolly and Sibiya will stay in the general's mansion for a while, and they can be protected by General Budd.
Their safety is not a big problem for the time being. Minister Ernest dared not let anyone directly attack General Budd's general mansion.
On the other hand, due to the suspension of the Three Beast Warriors' actions, Akahime and his group were very idle.
Of course, being idle is not a bad thing, at least they will not face danger.
"The Three Beast Warriors seem to have no movement after that, and Akahime and his group have not been attacked."
Chelsey said.
"It may be a brief calm before the storm."
Bai Ye said in a deep voice.
It is normal that the Three Beast Warriors have not made any movement recently. After all, Jolly survived, and in the perspective of Minister Ernest, General Budd is also an unstable factor, so naturally he dare not act rashly.
"Aren't the Three Beast Warriors Esdeath's subordinates? Some members of your organization are secretly monitoring Esdeath's mansion, and found that Esdeath has not been out much these days."
At this time, Chelsea mentioned the matter of Esdeath.
"This is indeed suspicious. I plan to go find her. You guys stay at the general's mansion first." Bai Ye said. "You want to go find her by yourself? By the way, why do I feel that you seem to care about General Esdeath?" The perceptive Chelsea noticed something strange. "Really? Maybe it's because I still owe her a favor." Bai Ye explained. I haven't paid off the favor I owed her before. I agreed to be Esdeath's short-term lover, but he ran away in less than a day. When he left, he also said that he would come back, so he would not break his promise. By the way, let's make a complete break with Esdeath... "Oh~" Chelsea just stared at Bai Ye's eyes without saying anything, as if she wanted to see Bai Ye's details. "Okay, then I'll wait for you here, but you have to be careful." Although Chelsea had guessed it, she didn't get too entangled. At this time, Hei Tong wanted to say something but didn't say it. "Yeah."
Bai Ye responded and then left.
This trip was to Esdeath's big villa.
After Bai Ye left, Chelsea suddenly felt a little bored and immediately thought of Hei Tong beside her.
"Little Hei Tong, do you have someone you like?"
Chelsey's tone was as if she asked this casually, but in fact it was intentional.
"Yes."
Hei Tong admitted it calmly and readily.
"Eh? Who is it? Could it be Bai Ye?"
Chelsey asked.
"Yes, I like the commander, what's wrong?"
Hei TongStill very direct, without the slightest bit of shyness on her face.
This surprised Chelsea. She thought that Hei Tong would at least be a little embarrassed, but she didn't expect him to be so frank.
"So... you like him too, right?"
At this time, it was Hei Tong's turn to ask Chelsea.
Chelsea was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief, "... you have taken the initiative. Yes, I am also very interested in him, so we are now rivals in love~"
Because of the incident with Esdeath, Hei Tong didn't care much about it.
She just shook her head slightly, "There is a bigger problem right now. You probably don't know that the news that Esdeath and the commander are lovers has spread all over the imperial capital."
As Hei Tong said, Chelsea really didn't know about it.
After all, "Night Raid" didn't plant spies in the imperial capital. Except for Leone who liked to play in the imperial capital from time to time, the rest of the people generally didn't stay in the imperial capital.
And it just so happened that Leone didn't go to the imperial capital that day, so no one knew about the "night raid".
"He and Esdeath became lovers? No wonder he is obviously more concerned about Esdeath's affairs..."
Chelsey was a little stunned for a moment.
She felt that she had won, but Bai Ye suddenly became a lover with Esdeath.
This happened too suddenly, and it was completely beyond Chelsea's expectations.
"So, you didn't know until just now."
Hei Tong said.
"In this case, I can't sit here honestly."
Chelsey couldn't sit still, "Let's go, let's go shopping together, and then we might accidentally wander to the vicinity of Esdeath's house, yes, accidentally~"
............
The imperial capital, Esdeath's mansion.
"This ability has finally been developed and perfected. I just need a test subject. Who should I find? It would be great if I could find Bai Ye directly..."
Esdeath could already feel that she had successfully mastered the new ability, muttering to herself.
She had been at home these days and had not gone out much, because she was concentrating on developing new abilities.
She named it "Mokopotmo".
She had thought of some other names, but she ruled them out and finally chose this one.
And just at this moment, Bai Ye arrived at the door of Esdeath's villa as soon as "Cao Cao" was said.
