Chapter 566 What are you talking about?
Fontaine, Narbonne, Buffatti House.
In this place where every inch of land is valuable, such a huge mansion is particularly eye-catching.
At this time, a tall woman was standing at the door of the mansion.
She had a blank expression and a serious look, and looked unsmiling.
Judging from her attire, she is most likely an elite spy like the Fatui and the Servants.
At this moment, her duty was to serve as the gatekeeper of the mansion and stand guard at the door.
At this moment, Shao Yun slowly walked towards the mansion.
The woman immediately became alert upon seeing this, and quickly stepped forward, asking sharply, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Shao Yun took out the greeting card calmly and explained, "A man with orange hair gave me this."
The Fool guarding the gate took the card and examined it carefully.
When she saw the unique mark left by Tartaglia on the greeting card, the expression on her face suddenly became relieved.
She nodded slightly, and said as if she had suddenly realized something: "Oh, there is a mark left by the young master..."
Before he finished speaking, the Fool stepped aside to make way, made an inviting gesture, and said softly: "Then please follow me in."
Shao Yun nodded and followed her into the mansion.
After entering the mansion, the first thing that catches your eye is the spacious and luxurious hall.
In a corner, several children from the Fireplace House were playing happily.
One of the kids shouted excitedly: "Yeah, I won!"
The other child was a little unconvinced and said with a pout, "Well, let's play another round. I don't believe I can't beat you this time!"
A well-trained and polite receptionist led Shao Yun through a corridor covered with exquisite carpets and finally arrived at the door of an elegantly decorated reception room.
The receptionist gently pushed open the carved wooden door and gestured sideways for Shao Yun to enter the house.
The first impression of this living room is warmth and comfort.
There are several exquisite oil paintings hanging on the walls and soft carpets on the floor.
In the middle of the room were two long sofas facing each other, and in the middle was a coffee table made of fine wood.
In addition, there are several vibrant green potted plants by the window, adding a touch of natural atmosphere to the entire space.
When Shao Yun entered the reception room, the receptionist bowed slightly to him, and then said in a gentle and respectful tone: "Please wait here for a moment. I will go and inform the young master of the Northland Bank."
After saying that, he bowed politely to Shao Yun again.
When Shao Yun heard that Tartaglia was at the North Country Bank, he was surprised and said, "No, he has already lost 50 billion. How dare he go to the North Country Bank? Won't he be beaten to death by someone?"
In response to Shao Yun's question, the receptionist did not answer but just stood there quietly.
"..."
For a moment, the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
Seeing this, Shao Yun also realized that he might have asked too many questions, so he waved his hand and said, "I'm sorry for asking too much. Go and call Tartaglia quickly."
Hearing this, the receptionist nodded, then tiptoed out of the reception room, leaving Shao Yun waiting alone.
Shao Yun walked to one of the long sofas with its back to the door and sat down slowly.
He had just taken out a cigar from his backpack and was about to light it up and enjoy it when he suddenly remembered that this was the Hearth House, an "orphanage", and it might not be appropriate to smoke.
So he hesitated for a moment, and finally put the cigar back.
At this moment, Shao Yun leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes slightly, and began to think about how to get in touch with Femini.
Just as he was racking his brains, there was a slight creaking sound from the door behind him...
Shao Yun originally thought that it was Tartaglia who came, so he turned around and kept complaining.
"Finally I'm here. If it were any later, I would have just laid down on the sofa and taken a nap!"
However, the moment Shao Yun turned around, the smile on his face froze instantly.
A strange figure appeared at the door.
The man was a tall middle-aged man with a blue mask on his face that completely covered the right side of his cheek.
He was wearing an exclusive coat for executives from the Kingdom of Winter. The unique style and exquisite details showed his extraordinary status.
"You... who are you?" Shao Yun asked suspiciously.
In response to Shao Yun's question, the mysterious middle-aged man did not respond immediately. He just walked forward as if nothing had happened and went straight to the sofa opposite Shao Yun.
When he reached the sofa, he slowly sat down.
Then he raised his head and looked at Shao Yun expressionlessly, an invisible pressure emanating from him.
"I am Piero, the Commander of the Fatui, the Harlequin."
When Shao Yun saw that the person sitting opposite him was "Pierro", the leader of the Fatui, he suddenly felt it was unreal. This couldn't be right. Was it your turn?
"What...what?" Shao Yun asked after coming to his senses.
Seeing this, Piero thought that Shao Yun was so shocked that he didn't hear clearly what he had just said.
So he patiently repeated, "Piero."
Shao Yun put on a serious look and asked seriously, "What is it?"
Piero vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he still tried to control his inner irritation and responded patiently: "Piero..."
However, Shao Yun seemed to be looking for trouble this time, and he continued to ask, "What?"
Hearing this, Piero couldn't hold back.
If the person sitting opposite him was anyone else other than Shao Yun, he would have overturned the table and started beating the person.
Is this kid deliberately making fun of himself?
Seeing that it was almost time, Shao Yun leaned back leisurely on the sofa behind him, looked up and down at the middle-aged man in front of him, and then asked slowly.
"If you fools want to kill me, you alone won't be enough."
The banquet when Xiang Yu invited Liu Bang was called the "Hongmen Banquet", and the banquet when Liu Bang invited Xiang Yu was a bit abstract, right?
Piero suppressed his displeasure at being teased by Shao Yun just now, and said in a low voice: "I just want to see you and talk to you. I have no ill intentions."
When Shao Yun heard that it was Piero who invited him here, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you sure?"
Facing Shao Yun's questioning, Piero took a deep breath, remained calm and rational, and said: "Yes, I did come here to meet you in my own name."
"And it seems to me that there is no one better to talk to you right now than me."
Hearing that he was so valued, Shao Yun couldn't help but sneer.
"It's a strange world we live in, don't we? When we're as docile as ponies, everyone wants to ride on us."
"But when we treated the world fiercely, the world suddenly became gentle."
When Piero heard this, he nodded in agreement and agreed with what Shao Yun said.
"Isn't this normal? No matter how the world is run by the rules set by heaven, it still comes down to the survival of the fittest."
At this point, Piero couldn't help but cast his gaze towards Shao Yun, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and continued: "You have killed two Fatui executives in succession, and destroyed the Doctor's most defensive slice."
"Given your strength, you are fully qualified to be regarded as a truly strong person and receive the respect and treatment you deserve."
As soon as he finished speaking, Piero frowned as if he suddenly remembered something and fell into a brief contemplation. After a moment, he spoke again: "Do you know? Just a few years ago, I met another difficult guy."
"He had fiery red hair, and he caused us a lot of trouble back then. Seeing you now makes me think of that guy."
When Shao Yun heard the red-haired boy's description and mentioned that it happened several years ago, Mond's fire greatsword Diluk instantly appeared in his mind.
He should be talking about Diluk... Then you Fatui deserve to be beaten...
Thinking of this, Shao Yun couldn't help but start teasing.
"You fools, you are hated by everyone and dogs hate you by everyone. It is only natural that you get beaten up!"
Faced with Shao Yun's sarcasm, Piero did not refute.
After all, the Fatui have always had a bad reputation outside, and he knew it very well.
Piero took a deep breath, steered the topic back on track, and said solemnly: "I have a few questions here, and I hope to get answers from you."
Shao Yun refused without hesitation and without hesitation.
"Why should I answer you?"
Seeing this, Piero mistakenly thought that his identity as a member of the Fatui that he had just revealed did not attract enough attention and interest from Shao Yun.
So he decided to reveal his other mysterious identity in the hope of breaking the deadlock.
"In fact, my other identity is the last court mage of Kanreya."
Shao Yun knew what Piero meant. After all, his eldest brother-in-law had lived in Kanreya, and the employees of the Abyss Cult were all the survivors of Kanreya, so he wanted to use this to get close to them.
However, it was obvious that he overestimated Shao Yun's current mind.
"You are the last court mage of Kanreya, not my father-in-law! I am chatting with you because I am bored."
"I came to see Tok. You came in suddenly and made small talk. I didn't chase you away, so you should just be happy."
When Piero heard what Shao Yun said, especially when he mentioned that he was looking for Tartaglia's younger brother Tok, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and he felt that something was not right.
"Hmm? Didn't you come here because you received an invitation? The invitation should have clearly stated it!"
At this point, Piero suddenly realized a problem - he had just arrived at Fontaine this morning and was about to look for Shao Yun, but he suddenly showed up as if he had calculated the time precisely.
Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?
On the other hand, Shao Yun was convinced that it must be Dadalia who dared to use his brother Tok as a cover to deceive him.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clench his fists tightly and said, "How dare you, Tartaglia, to use your own brother to lure me in! It seems that I really overestimated you before!"
