Chapter 195 "Four"

"Don't be nervous, it's really just telling you a story."

Faced with my deliberate reaction, Kalinin smiled noncommittally, and then took a bite of the half-melted dessert.

"It is too sweet."

"You should have finished it earlier so the ice cream wouldn't get absorbed into the wrap and wouldn't be as sweet."

It is obvious that the two people present are equally capable of nonsense. Apart from other things, I am really not afraid of anyone from the point of view of him.

The breeze is blowing, it has its freedom, it has no connection with everything in the world, no one can imprison the magical power of nature.

It's better to sit down first, although the breeze is just right, but my current physical condition is quite bad, and this guy is just quietly eating the dessert in his hand.

"Don't mind, how much is bought with money."

As if sensing my staring at him after sitting down, Kalinin explained to me after swallowing the food he was chewing.

"Ah."

Of course, I had no choice but to nod in agreement.

After all, it was bought with money.

I can't see through the man in front of me. I think that many times I can smoothly understand other people's intentions and try to figure out the intentions of various behaviors.

This is no accident, it is quite dependent on my survival until now, but this man in front of me can only make me feel confused.

I think I want to trust him from the bottom of my heart, and he does respond positively to my various requests.

Although I was rescued by him many times when I encountered danger, the reason why I was in danger was because of the "task" assigned by him.

I couldn't read the truth from their expressions, and couldn't find any flaws in his words, so I could only choose to deal with him.

The most frightening thing is that he can feel my thoughts, and I can't guarantee whether he has changed his attitude because of this.

Alas, look at this guy eating ice cream here quietly, even smacking his lips...

Well, well, let's try to figure out what he said before now.

The hunting was mentioned before, and the scout was mentioned immediately at the same time, so there must be a relationship between the two.

The problem is that I don't actually know the specific content of the hunting activity. Most of the time, I still learn about this activity through the push news of the Imperial Communications.

At the same time, unlike the Zvetan Cup hosted by the Navy, the hunting competition held by the Army is not directly broadcast to the outside world, so although the fame belongs to the three major events, we actually know very little about it.

"Gudong~! Gudong~!"

Heartbeat...why is my heart beating so fast?

am i nervous
What am I nervous about?
"Guess, the scout's name?"

finally come.

After the people around me finished eating the desserts in their hands, they continued to look straight ahead, or maybe slightly lowered their heads to look at the ground not far away, but fortunately, they were not staring at me deliberately.

It also allowed me to take a breath of relief for not knowing why I started to get nervous. Although I tried my best to restrain my state and try to calm myself down, I can't guarantee that my appearance will be as peaceful as I imagined.

"It has something to do with hunting."

I got quite a bit of time to calm down, and I seemed to suddenly figure out why I was so nervous.

It occurred to me that I had just inquired about something entrusted by Wang Zhihan on the boat, and now that he brought up this topic, it must be related.

But how did he know that I obtained such information on the ship?

Is he also investigating this matter, does he have other information channels, or how much does he know about this information?

Sylune's performance has clearly shown that she doesn't fully trust him, so she told me the news and token of the connection...

No, even if you think about it now, you can't reach out to grab that thing in your pocket. If you want to continue to maintain the current state, at least you can't leave an abnormal impression on him.

"To be honest, I don't know much about this so-called hunting."

Kalinin crumpled up the paper towel for wiping his mouth, and threw it into a trash can not far away.

"Unfortunately, it was almost a three-pointer."

This action may be a bit ostentatious to him, but I seem to understand the slight meaning and threat contained in it.

Of course, it's also possible that I'm just worrying too much. As you can see, I'm indeed a very sensitive person, even if it's just an illusion...

In any case, I should have responded fairly.

At this time, I should get up, and then help him pick up the stray ball of paper and throw it back into the trash can.

I also happened to take this opportunity to stand up and move around without showing any signs of expression. Sitting next to him brought me too much pressure!
In fact, as I expected, after I stood up, the eyes that hadn't paid attention to me started to move, following me until I picked up the paper ball on the ground.

"I don't know what the laws of the alliance are. At least if you are caught littering in the empire, you will be fined."

"Actually, I really like your cleverness, but sometimes... You must know that being too clever is really not a good thing."

The meaning of this sentence... This makes me even more nervous. What exactly does he want to tell me?
Can you just say something directly, what's the point of being a riddle like this, not to mention you bastard is still my "elder", okay?
"What do you want to know?"

I admit I'm a bit devastated, and I'm almost certain now that he's up to something, maybe even more than I expected.

Crash... yes!
I need to know how much he understands, so instead of going around in circles like this, I might as well pretend to use his words to communicate calmly under the pressure, and take the initiative to say some superficial news to observe his expression.

But wouldn't that be a little pretentious?

"Oh?"

Watching my expression, I should show my nervousness at the right time.

In fact, I am quite nervous. I just need to gradually stop restraining myself so much, and that anxious look can be expressed in a quite real state.

"Don't be so nervous, sit down."

Looking at me, Kalinin finally laughed, and then patted the chair beside him to signal me to sit down.

But compared to just now, although the movement is exactly the same, it didn't bring me any pressure or suffocation.

Yes... suffocation.

If you think about it so carefully, this move will take additional risks. If what I say can’t be just right, no matter how much it is, it will be more disadvantageous than not saying it at all...

Wait, Lin Man, if according to the previous speculation that Sylune did not report the information to Kalinin, then from Kalinin's point of view, even if he has learned more from other sources, he still has no way of knowing what I got. What intelligence.

So I just need to report the information I got in layers and truthfully, even if I only need to tell the superficial information on the first layer, he can only choose to believe it, provided that it can be confirmed with his information...

Damn, how can I get me to this degree?

Lin Man, you still have a lot to learn!

The person in front of me has returned to the head-up look just now. From my angle, I can see the Union military uniform inside his collar.

The white star on the right is shining brightly under the sunlight.

It has changed, the direction of the wind has changed, the breeze blowing from behind originally carried the fragrance of flowers, but now the breeze blowing towards the face is mixed with an earthy smell.

He still said nothing, as if he was waiting for me to take the initiative to speak.

Ok.

"I came into contact with Sylune on the boat."

The situation has developed to this point, I think it should be acquiesced that he has already understood the content of the story between me and Wang Zhihan.

"He asked me to say hello to you on his behalf."

"If you have a chance, you can tell him hello. It's better to come here in person to be more sincere."

I'm sorry, this is just a random sentence from my mouth, he didn't ask me to do this, and I didn't expect you to have resentment against him...

This made me wonder what kind of grievance happened between these two old guys... Ahem, it seems that now is not the time to think about this!
"He told me that his brother didn't disappear before returning to school like the previous information, but disappeared after returning to school."

"Oh?"

Although Kalinin showed great interest, the feeling of raising his eyebrows made me feel quite dazzling.

The facial expressions are also quite smooth, too fast to understand and make appropriate expressions, I have to be alert.

He already knew these contents.

"What about the accuracy of the intelligence, have you ever questioned it?"

Alas, I think it is still impossible to tell him that there is such a person, even if it is clearly stated that he does not know the details, he will pay more attention to me, so as to prevent me from finding this informant in private, which will cause trouble for my future actions...

However, I can't promise that if I don't tell him the news, he won't monitor me. Recalling that he appeared just right a lot of times before, this has to make me consider the possibility that I have been monitored.

Oh, damn it, I can't make up a story myself... Yes, I can't say there are people, but I can say that there are things!

The things in the hands of the informant, those video records and access control records...

"of course."

These things are real, so I don't have to worry... Even if he did know about the existence of the informant, I still have an excuse to avoid being questioned.

"Sylune told me that there are verifiable sightings and access records."

"Then have you ever seen these materials with your own eyes?"

"Sorry, no."

Kalinin turned his head and sighed, this time the state is indeed more natural, it seems that his understanding of this matter has come to an end.

This is a good thing for me, anyway, he has advanced the progress from me...

"Then how did he know?"

Kalinin leaned against the back of the bench and took a deep breath of the earthy air.
