An invisible small soundproof barrier quietly unfolded, blocking out all the noisy sounds around, leaving only Lanqi and the woman behind him.
Lan Qi did nothing. The soundproof barrier was triggered by the magic device carried by the other party.
"You finally came."
Lan Qi didn't move his mouth. He was already wearing the thought ring made by Professor Borao for the poet of great love.
He picked up the glass and took a sip, seemingly not surprised by the arrival of the woman in black dress.
"I thought you would be more cautious, Professor Landry Wassington."
The woman in black skirt said coldly.
"This location is quite safe. Doesn't it mean that you are willing to show up?"
Lan Qi didn't look back at him, but the voice was all too familiar to him.
It was Unity, the female Allied spy she met on the Brilda train that day.
She was wearing a white porcelain mask that day, and even if she wasn't wearing a mask today, her appearance must have been disguised.
"..."
Unity, who was wearing a black dress, remained silent for the time being.
She picked up the coffee cup.
The other party obviously guessed that she was looking for him, so he deliberately waited for her here. This feeling that everything was expected made her particularly uncomfortable.
She really wanted to find this guy as soon as possible, because according to the intelligence of her colleagues, this guy pretending to be a professor had already done something terrible in the empire.
It was confirmed that the other person had been to the Empire's Special Operations Office today, and Unity confirmed that this guy was the Empire's eagle dog, the number one eagle dog among the eagle dogs.
Even if he interacts with the Allies for unknown purposes, there is no doubt about his evil nature.
When she was thinking.
"When you go to check out later, pay attention to the coffee cups sold in the store. I will hide an invisible video crystal inside. You can find it by sensing the magic at close range. Buy it with the coffee cup. ”
Lan Qi suddenly spoke, letting Unity behind him hear his words.
"……what is inside?"
Unity remained calm, but her voice was filled with suspicion.
She doesn't need to use magic props. As a well-trained agent, she is good at ventriloquism.
"What you want, the results of my research."
Lan Qi told her bluntly.
"Why did you give these to me?"
Unity couldn't figure it out for a while.
While she was still thinking about how to reach a deal with this man, the other party had already proposed to give her what she wanted?
Completing the task too easily made her feel uneasy.
"Because this power cannot be possessed by the empire alone."
Lan Qi replied briefly.
It was difficult for him to explain the concept of "balance of terror" in a few sentences.
Often people don’t understand until the world actually changes.
"Then I'll accept it."
Unity didn't hesitate. She walked around the cafe first, found the coffee cup Landry was talking about, and bought it to prevent other customers from taking it away during this conversation. Bought.
indeed.
Without the Allies as competitors, the Empire would not have realized the urgency and paid more attention to Landry.
This guy's ambition is truly terrifying. For the sake of his own status and power, he is actually willing to sell out the empire.
Unity settled the bill very naturally, and when she was about to leave, she heard Landry's voice again.
"Do me a favor."
Lan Qi's speech made Unity return to the seat behind Lan Qi and sit down again.
"what?"
Unity asked with a stern expression, her back to him.
Professor Landry's research is still in its infancy. If she wants to successfully obtain research-related information, she needs to cooperate with him for a long time. If the other party needs it, she will have to provide bargaining chips accordingly.
"I need a fiancée. She must be from the northwest border of Nickassonde. It is best to have a smart allied spy who can play this identity well. If you are not worried, I will just use the identity."
Lanci said.
"..."
This immediately caused Unity to remain silent for ten seconds.
She was analyzing whether this man really had a mission or was just lustful.
This imperial bureaucracy disgusted her even more.
After all, according to the opponent's strong strength, if they really live in the same house, it will be difficult to ensure the safety of their fellow allies.
The woman in black dress tapped her fingers on the table, as if she was still thinking about it.
Lan Qi did not look back at her. At this time, no matter who they were, they were strangers with no communication.
The sun has set half a minute further in the west.
at last.
"I don't guarantee success, and even if you have an identity, I still need the consent of the other party, but I will try my best to help you find a suitable identity, and you must maintain your identity as Landry and continue to cooperate with me."
Unity said in a deep voice, and then she stood up and left.
As a matter of principle, she would never cooperate with anyone from the Imperial Special Operations Division.
But compared to the cruel front line, espionage is also a battlefield where countless lives are shouldered, and she has to make trade-offs on some things.
A piece of information, in one hour, may determine the fate of a division.
Nowadays, the war situation on the front line makes it difficult for her to sleep and eat well every day. Even her nightmares are about her hometown being engulfed by the flames of war, which wakes her up soaked in cold sweat.
Even a careless sleep talk could reveal her identity and kill an entire line of colleagues.
She didn't know when she would die, or whether she would die without any bones left. She was only afraid that she would die worthless.
The intelligence in the mind of the careerist behind him is irreplaceable. Collecting his information from other channels is equally risky, or even higher. It is not certain how complete the information can be obtained through multiple channels. It is undoubtedly risky to seek information directly from him. It’s already a dream option.
After a long time.
Outdoor seating at the outdoor cafe.
"...I seem to have been misunderstood a bit."
Lan Qi felt relieved that the Allied spies were gone, and thought bitterly.
With Unity's reply, he had achieved his goal.
Now he is gradually no longer entangled in Unity's suspicion.
If everyone thinks of him as the Imperial Eagle Dog, it will actually be a recognition of his acting skills.
If you can even deceive your own people, it will be no problem to deceive your enemies.
He will bear all the misunderstandings and bear them.
"Is it possible that you have been misunderstood? A large part of it is your own responsibility."
Thalia felt that Unity was really not to blame.
If she were Unity, it would be hard for her to believe that Lan Qi was on the Allied side. He was so dedicated in his performance.
"It's impossible. There must be a loneliness carved behind the glory. This is how Dean Loren survived."
Lanci immediately denied it.
"Do you want to ask Loren? Why was he questioned in the first place?"
Thalia almost laughed angrily.
She now had to admit that Loren was really an honest and loyal person. What kind of saint could he be so gentle to Lan Qi all the time?
"I came out of the Darkest Solar Eclipse Demon Realm of the Seventh Level Shadow World and actually asked him. He just smiled and didn't say anything. This shows that he thought the same as me."
Lan Qi replied confidently.
"..."
Thalia choked.
It seems that Loren really has no objection.
"Call it off and go home."
Lan Qi put away his work diary and pushed the chair back under the iron table.
The comrades on Poson's side obviously did not have as large a spy agency as the Allied spies represented by the Kingdom of Canberra. It would take time to contact Poson's spies. The only way to find a fiancée was to give priority to Unity.
As long as the Allies can figure out the identity, whether they come directly or let Talia disguise themselves, everything will be smooth sailing.
Although this old man may not be able to play a fiancée of his age, but all the flaws mean there are no flaws. The performance of Talia's own foodie characteristics will not easily be questioned.
"...?"
Thalia felt that Lan Qi was becoming more and more presumptuous.
"Traitor, I may not be willing to be your fiancée yet."
She muttered in her mind.
