Throne Steps

Chapter 8 Concealment and Exposure

Snapped!

Su Can slammed a stack of documents on the coffee table, his expression was almost extremely angry: "Zhang Zhen, what do you mean!"

A man named Zhang Zhen was sitting on the sofa across from the coffee table, and he looked older than Su Can.Compared with Su Can's endless anger, his state is much calmer, even with a little smile.It's just that his face was naturally fierce, and this smile carried a bit of hostility.

"Literally, Mr. Su." Zhang Zhen replied, "It can't be done!"

His tone seemed casual, but it always sounded a bit harsh.

"Can't do it?" Su Can laughed back angrily, "Is there anything else you Zhang Zhen can't do?"

"With all due respect, your bidding plan is at best a scratch for Xinrik." Zhang Zhen glanced at the documents on the coffee table and snorted, "What's more, your plan of 'resurrecting from the dead' It’s also unbelievably rotten.”

"Unsightly?" Su Can crossed his hands and sneered, "Do you have any ability to 'sight', show it?"

"I'm just the one who executes." Zhang Zhen didn't refute, just said, "Your ability, you'd better continue to 'die'!"

"Zhang Zhen!" Su Can shouted, "Are you going to betray me!"

"Betrayal? It's too serious to say that." Zhang Zhen stood up and approached Su Can step by step, "Don't forget, you 'personally' recruited me, and you 'personally' told me before——

"'If you think I'm not qualified to command you, then leave with you'!"

Su Can's face turned pale, and he faltered in shock for a moment: "'Kiss'...you said 'Kiss'?"

"That's right...you said it 'personally', Mr. Su." Zhang Zhen laughed, stopped approaching him, took a few steps back, and then turned around directly.

"I've already resigned, please ask Gao Ming!"

How is this going!

Why is Su Can and Zhang Zhen together?What do they want?When did this happen?Is it directly related to your own death?

...why am I seeing this? !

Li Chen's brain seemed to explode.He hadn't seen these figures for too long, and even if the hatred couldn't be erased every day and every moment, these appearances were blurred by time.The picture on the magic circle is so vivid that even without sound, it still makes him restless—his face is not much better than Su Can in the video.

"What is that!" Wiggins suddenly yelled, and grabbed Li Chen's sleeve, "Ruisen, did you see it!"

Wiggins saw it too? !Then the others... Li Chen swept around calmly, quickly imitating the blank expressions of the people around him: "See what? A treasure?"

"Fight!" Wiggins was quite excited, "There are two magicians dueling! My God...you didn't see such a wonderful scene?"

Isn't it Su Can and Zhang Zhen... Li Chen was relieved immediately, but on the surface he still didn't know what the other party said: "No, I didn't see it. Where did you see it?"

"That's where the treasure is!" Wiggins replied, "Although it's only for a while, it's so obvious, why didn't you see it!"

Don't say that what I see is different, even if it is the same, I have to keep silent for the time being.Li Chen resolutely maintained a unified puzzled look with those around him.

"Cough..." Anda seemed to finally know what to do, he stood up and patted Wiggins on the shoulder, "Master, no matter what, please keep quiet in the hall."

"Mr. Anda!" Wiggins opened his eyes wide, as if he heard something incredible, "I did see it! Mr. Anda, didn't you see it too?"

Anda shook his head: "Let's go outside and talk."

"But!" Wiggins was unwilling to leave, but couldn't say anything else, "But...but..."

When you can't find approval, your words are lies... Li Chen stood up following Winnie's movement.

If Wiggins continues to be entangled here, he will immediately be regarded as a child called "Wolf is coming", and he will taste the feeling of being unreasonable and unspeakable.

"Lying" in this kind of place is molesting public opinion.

Wiggins seems to have sensed the disapproval of those around him.He got up, and his excited expression became aggrieved, puzzled and angry: "But I clearly...why don't you believe me?"

Li Chen looked at the expressions of Anda and Winnie, they probably thought that the young master wanted to show off and was crazy.

Estor probably thinks so too!

Li Chen glanced at Wiggins faintly with pity.The young master was led out by Anda, his expression was so aggrieved that he was about to cry.

Still a child after all!

Li Chen lowered his head and followed behind, carefully avoiding the people who were still prostrate on the ground.Seeing that a group of people were about to leave the main hall, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"Son, what did you just say you saw?"

What is the logo of Pure White Sarnlich?

According to the book, it is the blond hair as bright as the sun, the different-colored eyes that change like clouds, the smile as soft as a treasure, and the beauty that is unforgettable after one glance,

There are also extremely high magical talents, and gorgeous and complicated white robes.

"What are you thinking about?"

Li Chen was brought back to his senses by the voice.A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy stood in front of him, with a slender figure and a handsome appearance. His white gold-rimmed robe was blown by the breeze—it actually matched Saenlich's logo everywhere.His eyes are deep and narrow, and his thin lips are slightly indifferent. Fortunately, the arc drawn from the corner of his mouth softens his expression.He is much taller than Li Chen, but at this moment he bent down to look at Li Chen at the same level, the two of them are as close as close playmates.

"Thinking of your outstanding looks."

If it was normal, it would be impossible for Li Chen to say these words, but who would let him face the whole country at this moment... No, what about the most famous family in the whole continent - the pure white Saenlich?

Although he is only fourteen or fifteen years old, considering the prestige of pure white, he should be honest and be a child who "fades in the face of beauty".

It was His Royal Highness Sarnlich and his tutor who stopped them just now.At that time, they just came out from the side door, and the priests from the main hall followed to introduce Anda and his party.

("This is His Royal Highness from the capital of the temple - Saenz Wagcheno Saenlich.")

At that time, Li Chen looked at this honorable young man and felt "this is Saenlich" in his heart.Unlike the others, Li Chen just woke up from the light of the treasure due to shock and suspicion, coupled with his actual age experience and keen observation, Saenz's smile did not make him lose his mind.He narrowed his eyes slightly to stare at Saenz's expression, and the other party seemed to notice it, and turned around and deliberately widened the arc of his smile.Li Chen forced a smile back to him, bowed his head and put the first label on this Saenlich in his heart.

(This is a fake smile... how many times does it take to practice in the mirror to laugh at this level!)

The tutor was a man in his fifties who was introduced as Yuri Meloyer by the clergy at the side.Unlike Saenz, Yuri is wearing a blue formal suit, coupled with the conspicuous blue coat of arms on the collar flower, it is the color of sea blue.

(Melloye, the color of sea blue...)

In fact, Yuri was the one who really stopped Wiggins.Wiggins' words seemed to arouse his interest, and the tutor invited Wiggins and his temporary "guardian" Andy to the reception room for a detailed discussion.Li Chen and Winnie were about to go out of the church to prepare for the return journey, but Saenz followed, saying that Regsella was still young, as if the travel had made him tired, and then directly took Li Chen to the next door lounge.

In fact, what does this highness want to do?Li Chen didn't know.He had nothing to do in the lounge, but he didn't dare to relax. After thinking about it, he decided to stare at Saenz in a daze.

Anyway, real kids must be blown away by how he looks, right? ——Although I didn’t have time to do it on the first side just now.

Now that the conversation has finally been sparked, things are either getting better or worse.

Li Chen's decision-making remains the same, he is like a child with no distractions, looking into those eyes that are close at hand.The so-called heterochromia is actually the same pupil dyed with different colors, like the monopupil heterochromia known to Li Chen.As for His Highness Saenz in front of him, the pupils showed a circular gradient effect, with light blue as the background, and a thin and conspicuous red ring gathered in the middle.

Probably because Li Chen was watching too intently, this Saenlich's smile became more obvious, and he didn't care about Li Chen's offensive words, just smiled and said: "Thank you for your compliment."

Li Chen blinked.This His Highness never smiled before, but he was really happy because of his offense?Well, the hobbies of the upper class are really hard to understand.

This 12-year-old child looked towards the door of the lounge from time to time.That expression of wanting to ask but not daring to ask, is like a little stuffed animal trapped, only to turn around anxiously.Saenz admired it for a while before he smiled and said, "They have to talk for a while. Don't worry, Teacher Yuri will bring them over after the talk is over."

Of course I knew I would come over, isn't this just to pretend to be a child for you?Li Chen rolled his eyes silently in his heart, but asked, "Are they... going to talk for a long time?"

"Who knows?" Saenz walked to the window, which was sunny outside. "It depends on what Wiggins sees."

"Your Highness, you mean him..." Li Chen opened his eyes wide, his expression full of doubts, "Wiggins, did he really see two magicians?"

"Maybe." Saenz turned around, and the direction of the backlight made him seem to be edged with light, "Then what about you?"

"Eh?"

"Don't deny it, Regsella."

The young man walked over, his words were like thunder, and there seemed to be the confidence of knowing everything in his strange eyes.Li Chen suddenly had the thought of "this is why you left me alone", and then flashed the thought of "are you lying to me"; when he came back to his senses, he had already missed the opportunity to react quickly.

"Yuri was also called by me."

This statement seems to be corroborated, but it is difficult to verify whether it is true or false. The 12-year-old hasn't decided how to react, the teenager is closing in.

"So, what did you see then?"
