When Feng Ao Kuai arrived when it was late at night, he found out that neither Nan Luo and Nan Hua were asleep. He arched his eyebrows. "Don't you still need to rest and prepare for the next phase of the war?"
"It can be postponed. I would like to know who has been making these dirty moves against us first." Nan Luo looked at Feng Ao Kuai.
"Heh, you can ask her to be the one to do the interrogation, you know." Feng Ao Kuai snorted.
"You're getting noisier, Ao Kuai."
"Only because you're also noisy, Luo."
The two cousins glared at each other, lighting sparks between the two of them. But in the next moment, the two of them laughed.
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "Interrogate him first. You can talk again later."
"Okay." Feng Ao Kuai nodded and walked inside. Seeing Nan Luo's state, he felt that he was worrying for nothing. Even though Nan Luo must have felt devastated, he would not allow his emotion to get the better of him.
They were all soldiers.
No matter how sad, angry, devastated, and any other feelings they have, they had to move on and kept walked forward.
Because the path they treaded is the path built by countless corpses under their feet.
Thunk!
"Do you already have guess even before the interrogation finished, Nan?" Nan Luo asked as he waited outside. He didn't really like interrogating soldiers and would rather handed it all to Feng Ao Kuai as much as possible.
"Someone under Prime Minister Lei with the surname Mang," Nan Hua answered calmly.
Nan Luo was stunned. "How do you know that much?"
"Prime Minister Lei had a trusted attendant with the surname Mang. He himself have a lot of people under him whose surname had been changed to Mang. Since they're from Zhang Xu Kingdom, I guessed that it should be his handiwork," Nan Hua explained calmly.
The truth was that Strategist Mang hadn't made his move officially in the open. He only made some move in the dark, so the number of people who knew this name was very limited.
Nan Hua knew thanks to the novel she read.
And with the people she had sent to Zhang Xu Kingdom in the past, the information she could gain was quite a lot. It had already helped her greatly so far and allowed her to know bits and pieces about this person.
Prime Minister Lei always gathered strange people around him.
From Fang Sheng Lin who wanted nothing but fight, Strategist Mang who had ingenious ideas but too lazy to implement it, general who fought at the frontline and under his command, and the poison master from Lin Family.
Poison master from Lin Family?
Nan Hua recalled that there should be another person in the Lin Family who would play a big role in the next war.
Creating poison that will kill thousands of people.
Her eyes narrowed.
It seemed that her next destination target has been determined. At this point of time, Prime Minister Lei should have already given the order to create that poison and the man might have already started to make it.
When the poison was finished, it would be taken to the frontline and caused devastating damages to the people from Fei Yang Kingdom.
"Your intelligence gathering is very powerful." Nan Luo was speechless. He felt that Hou Lin and the others under his grandfather couldn't even work half as good as Nan Hua. But then again, he was not completely focused on this kind of work.
It didn't seem to be suitable for him.
Nan Hua also knew that. The only reason Old Master Nan handed it over to Nan Luo was because he hoped Nan Luo could use it to protect his life when it was necessary.
Nothing more and nothing else.
Expecting this brat to make the organization flourish more than this was impossible.
"I'm focusing more on this."
"Right." Nan Luo nodded.
Nan Hua looked at the door, listening to the occasional screams from inside. While she didn't know what Feng Ao Kuai do, she could guess based on the various sounds that was made from the tools and also the screams that followed.
Nan Luo also stopped saying more words.
They didn't wait long for Feng Ao Kuai to come out. He looked at the twins and then replied, "He gave out the name Mang Bi, a commander from Zhang Xu Kingdom. His own position is fairly low but he had several sworn brothers who are also commanders in Zhang Xu Kingdom."
"So, there are a lot of people who're behind this?" Nan Luo asked.
"Yep."
"What's your plan?"
"Conquer Zhang Xu Kingdom." Feng Ao Kuai felt that it was unnecessary to care too much. Since they were all part of Zhang Xu Kingdom, then he would just step forward and just pack them all.
Anyway, the war with Zhang Xu Kingdom was still ongoing.
Nan Luo grinned. "Now, that's a very good idea."
"He's at the other border with Fei Yang Kingdom." Nan Hua poured the bucket of cold water to Nan Luo. "You wouldn't be able to meet him unless you go and cooperate with General Wei."
"General Wei, huh?" Nan Luo thought of that peculiar general and nodded. "I will apply for it, then."
Feng Ao Kuai arched his eyebrows and thought about it. There was nothing wrong with being here, but he also wanted to see that annoying Strategist Mang. Not to mention, when they cooperate with General Wei, they would be able to fight with Prime Minister Lei head on.
He had long wanted to see more of this famous genius prime minister.
"I'll apply too."
"How about Brother Si?"
"Leave him be. He only knows how to use his fist."
Feng Ao Si, who had just finished a hearty dinner with his wife, sneezed. He looked at the sky speechlessly.
Can't his younger brother and cousin let him off and stopped talking bad about him?
He still wanted to enjoy the long night, ok?
