The winter night comes very early, and the sky is completely dark at five o'clock. A thin moon hangs on the treetops, and the air is cold.

Thanatos appeared earlier, indicating that Fia must have been driven back to the palace.After the crisis was over, Xi Luo finished eating the cake, and became a little idle instead—because of the ban of his immediate boss, he couldn't go home, and even the scope of activities was restricted, even if he didn't sleep, there was really nothing to do.

So after a few rounds of boredom in the room, Xi Luo silently opened an official document...

So is he really a hard worker?

After working for half an hour, Xi Luo pressed his temples and wanted to rest while cursing, but just as he leaned back in the chair, a voice suddenly sounded: "Ya Jiang, you did a good job this time!" , the organization will definitely reward you!"

Shiloh: ...

So he really is a hard-working bastard! ! !

"Tell me something quickly. Someone is staring at me. It's not convenient for me to speak now." Xi Luo lowered his voice and spoke in a bad tone.

The branch leader laughed a few times: "Then I'll make a long story short. I think you know that Melo has already left for the capital of the empire. No matter how you look at it, he is here for you."

"I didn't expect you to still care about me, bald." Xi Luo felt a little surprised, raised his eyebrows, and asked with a rare touch: "So you came to remind me on purpose?"

"No...cough cough." The branch president coughed dryly: "I want to tell you that when Melo comes, you must not run away."

Shiloh: ...

The branch president obviously felt a little embarrassed to make such an excessive request.He organized his language a little bit, and then said in an awkward manner: "You are an old salesman, and the organization has high hopes for you. The situation in the imperial capital will be very complicated in the future, and we have no choice. We really can't find other people. This plane depends on you alone to support the sky. And I don’t think Melo will do anything to you. You have to believe in his deep love for you. Don’t worry, the most you can do is close a small black room. .”

Xi Luo's eyelids twitched, and he replied quietly: "...I believe in his love, but I don't quite believe in your integrity."

The branch president smiled: "It doesn't matter, as long as I believe you have no integrity."

Xi Luo: ...Hehehe, old man, your lower limit cliff has gone with the wind like your hair!

"You can't resist the organization's arrangements."

The branch president paused, and taught Xi Luo seriously: "There is nothing to worry about. If you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of being unscrupulous. You have to believe that all small black houses are paper tigers, as long as you face them with a shameless spirit. For him, there is nothing to be afraid of. Come, here is a rough plan for your reference, and I will transfer the file to your mind now."

"..."

Xi Luo was so worried that he didn't even know how to complain, and he browsed through the things without saying a word.

The branch president waited patiently for a while, and then asked expectantly: "How is it, do you understand?"

Xi Luo wrote with capital letters on his face that he was loveless: "...I see it."

Branch President: ...

"Oh, someone is coming from your side. Be careful, I will withdraw first." The scene was too embarrassing, the branch leader cut off the contact decisively, and evacuated safely before Xi Luo went crazy.

Xi Luo was mourning for his comminuted fracture. He didn't react for a while when he heard this, and realized that the person who came was likely to be Thanatos who had gone and returned after three seconds, and immediately jumped up from his seat. , in a hurry trying to hide the leftover snacks again.

Unfortunately, just as he picked up the last cake, Thanatos pushed open the door.Under the oppressive gaze, Xi Luo managed to squeeze out a smile, and then handed the thing in his hand to Thanatos: "Then what, I specially left it for you, do you want to eat it?"

Thanatos glanced at the piece of cream cake and said expressionlessly: "You should remember that I never eat sweets."

Xi Luo's movements froze suddenly: "Eh... I forgot when I was nervous. I'm sorry, that..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Thanatos glanced at him, suddenly reached out to take the silver plate, and said lightly, "Except for the cake."

"Wait...what?"

Xi Luo stared in a daze as the other party sat down neatly, and began to deal with the small piece of cream cake in the style of eating a French meal. For a moment, he almost forgot what he wanted to say.

Seeing Xi Luomu standing there blankly, Thanatos raised his head to look at him, his face was expressionless, but the corners of his mouth were pursed, so there was a very shallow arc, like a smile.

"Distressed about the cake?"

Xi Luo came back to his senses, coughed to cover up, and then showed a smile: "How is it possible, it is an honor for this cake to be eaten by you——Actually, I have something to tell you."

Thanatos half-closed his eyes.Although the other party was still sitting, Xi Luo had a feeling that he was looking down on him.

Swallowing involuntarily, Xi Luo suddenly became nervous for no reason.He took a breath, trying to maintain his superficial calm.

——For some reason, the two of them haven't pierced the thin window paper until now.But no matter what, even if he knew his identity, it was absolutely impossible for Thanatos to guess his real purpose of action.He didn't want to reveal his purpose, but in order to achieve this purpose, he had to be assisted by Thanatos to some extent.

"I heard that the eldest prince will be exiled to Barit. There is no doubt that he has lost the chance to compete for the throne. His Highness the third prince has become the most popular candidate for the throne. At such a time, the queen will never allow Any accident...and I was just one of those 'accidents'."

Shilo carefully observed Thanatos' expression, but couldn't see anything.He had no choice but to continue: "His Royal Highness, the third prince, has no idea what he is doing. He is too young to regard the momentary favor and rebellious impulse as so-called love. He can make mistakes, he is born with such a right, but I can't." I think the queen must be thinking about it now, and chop me up, the person who seduced his son, into a few pieces..."

Thanatos interrupted him and asked noncommittally, "So, what do you want to do?"

Xi Luo's long speech suddenly choked in his throat, and after a moment of silence, he touched his nose and said embarrassingly: "I want to make an illusion that I have left the capital on my own initiative."

"You don't need such a trick, I can really send you out of the capital." Thanatos curled his lips, his eyes pointed straight at Xi Luo's heart like a sharp arrow blade: "Why do you have to stay here?"

Xi Luo took a step back in fright, turned his head to hide his flustered eyes, and reflexively wanted to sycophant: "As a subordinate, of course, I will be where you are. If you stay here, I will How can a subordinate leave his post without authorization..."

But Thanatos didn't intend to let Shilo go just like that.After Xi Luo's words fell, he suddenly got up and took a step forward, and a dangerous breath followed his movements.The yellow candlelight shone on half of his handsome face, and the swaying shadows flickered with the dancing flames.The next moment, Thanatos raised the corners of his lips deeply, raised his hand and clasped Xi Luo's wrist with his slender fingers, and dragged him to his side.

The distance was shortened in an instant, Xi Luo widened his eyes, and heard the other party mutter thoughtfully: "Where I am, where are you?"

After a pause in thinking, Xi Luo realized that Thanatos was repeating the sentence he just said, and his heart thumped inexplicably: "I didn't mean that, I was talking nonsense!"

Thanatos lowered his eyelids, put his other hand on Shilo's neck, and then clamped his jaw tightly, forcing him to raise his head.Their eyes met, Xi Luo held his breath and looked into each other's eyes.Those light-colored pupils seemed to be burning with a prairie fire, so bright that it was breathtakingly bright, as if it could sweep everything in an instant and burn everything up.

Holding Shilo's wrist and kissing it on his lips, Thanatos showed an obscure smile, his eyes darkened even more.He looked down at Xi Luo and said, "What if I intend to take it seriously?"
