1283 The Recluse

The rising sun rose again, the outline of the moon became dimmer, and a new day began.

In the young master's room, Lin Chi rubbed his eyes and sat up, opened the status bar and looked at it. There was no new death prompt, and there was no prompt for plot events.

Since it ruled a territory, the development time left for players in this game is much longer than any previous game. Taking this opportunity to quickly garrison troops and grain to prepare for the war that will come in unknown time is undoubtedly very important.

Lin Chi's plan today is to visit the intelligence agency leader who was called "old stubborn" by the engineering master to seek ways to rebuild the intelligence agency.

The assassination troops of the Yanfeng Army can indeed replace part of the functions of the intelligence agencies. However, the specialty of those soldiers is to kill people. If you want to inquire about intelligence, it is more reliable to hand it over to professional spies and spies.

After washing up, Lin Chi changed into a relatively low-key gray outfit. Under Shen Wenchong's escort, Lin Chi walked towards the gate of Yanfeng Palace.

Before leaving, he asked the guards of Yanfeng Palace. After learning that there were no visitors, he looked back at the quaint palace.

——It has been several days, Moliya, who has entered the secret room of the Assassin Temple, has not come back.

However, while worried about the safety of the vampire, Lin Chi continued to do what he should do.

The two of them rolled over their horses and walked along the street, running towards the location of the house provided by the engineer.

After receiving the news that the new lord took office, the chaos in Yanfeng City finally eased slightly. There were more passers-by on the street than in the previous few days, and the roadside stalls that had disappeared began to appear again.

Seeing the city prospering again, Lin Chi was also a little relieved at this moment. However, his irritability still prevailed:

“Get out of here!”

Shen Wenchong shouted loudly, trying to disperse the pedestrians on the road ahead, but the narrow street was crowded with people and could no longer allow a horse to pass.

Realizing that this place is unavailable, Shen Wenchong sighed long, looked at the young master wearing a hood beside him, and asked, "Do you want to take a detour?"

"Let's walk." Lin Chi pointed to the horse shed on the street.

"There are too many people here, and there may be danger..." Shen Wenchong looked at the pedestrians worriedly.

"It's okay." Lin Chi smiled: "They won't know."

As he said, the residents of Yanfeng City could not have imagined that the new lord would conduct a "private visit" here. The two of them struggled to squeeze through the crowd and were not noticed by anyone at all.

“It’s right in front.”

After passing through the bustling crowd, Lin Chi finally got a chance to breathe, pointed to a black exterior second-story house on the street diagonally in front of him: "The old man lives here."

"Is it really here? I always feel... it's not right." Shen Wenchong frowned at the inconspicuous building.

Although Shen Wenchong, who has always served as an escort, had never had much contact with the head of the intelligence agency, in his imagination, such a person should be a mysterious character living in seclusion in the mountains and forests and should not live in such a downtown area at all.

"It's really a way to live in seclusion," Lin Chi said as he speeded up.

The two passed by the vendor selling candied haws on the roadside and soon arrived at the wooden door of the building. Shen Wen rushed back and took a look, then raised his hand and knocked on the door panel twice.

Dong, Dong.

After waiting for a while, no one in the room answered. Shen Wenchong knocked a few more times, but still did not respond.

"No one?" Shen Wenchong looked at the wooden door in confusion, tried to reach out and pull it, and the door opened directly outward.

"Is his house not locked?"

Seeing this scene, Lin Chi's expression suddenly became solemn.

——Can the leader of the intelligence agency be killed?

The two looked at each other and entered the building one after another.

Shen Wen rushed back and closed the door, walked forward a few steps, and a scent of fragrance hit him, making him sneeze.

The first floor should be the living room, filled with all kinds of potted plants, and the colorful things that caught my eye made Lin Chi start to wonder if he had entered the flower shop by chance.

There was no furniture for guests in the living room, only wooden shelves with flower pots displayed. Seeing that there was no one on the first floor, Lin Chi and Shen Wenchong slowly walked up the second floor along the wooden steps beside the wall, and were about to push open the blue wooden door leading to the second floor, when an old male voice suddenly sounded in the house:

"Don't move."

"Hello, I'm visiting you at home." Lin Chi said seriously.

"I know...ahem..."

Speaking of this, the old man suddenly started to cough violently. Just when Lin Chi began to wonder if he was about to be choked to death, he finally regained his ability to speak:

"I know who you are...'Young Master'."

The contempt in the other party's sarcastic tone can be said to be very obvious. Shen Wenchong was about to attack, but Lin Chi immediately stopped the guard and continued:

"I am very sorry for the previous incident. Can you please reorganize the intelligence agency? This time I will allocate enough funds, and the same thing as before will not happen."

"Haha, it's time now, what are you talking about?"

The old man in the room laughed contemptuously: "The older a person is, the more thorough he sees it. Nonsense like "repairing the sheep in the dead" are just excuses."

"Old man, please give me a respectful point." Shen Wenchong knocked on the door panel hard: "I'm not as good as the young master."

"Hahaha……"

Hearing Shen Wenchong's threat, the old man in the room laughed, and after another cough, he slowly spoke:

"You said I am an 'old man'? You are so old, you are much older than me..."

"Old man, are you confused?" Shen Wenchong cursed loudly.

However, while the old man was talking, Lin Chi suddenly realized something and immediately asked: "Why did you say he is 'old'?"

——Shen Wenchong in this game should be completely "rejuvenated". If it were other NPCs, this handsome man would not associate with the old man who had lived in the city for more than a hundred years.

However, the old man living in seclusion in this building did not even see Shen Wenchong's appearance, but seemed to see Shen Wenchong's "essence" through the door panel.

Could it be that this old man has special abilities to see the appearance of the minion "before"? If that's true...

Lin Chi was thinking, and the old man in the room spoke again:

"I'm not just talking about him, but you. I've said that you can see who you are now, don't think you can hide it from me, 'Young Master'."
