This brave man is a scumbag

Chapter 22 Why did His Highness rebel?

"Give a letter of challenge to the deviant brave?"

In the simple wooden conference room, Zhou Li, wearing a mask, sat on the front seat knocking his legs, while Hei Shu stood beside him in an extremely standard standing posture, looking like a housekeeper.Elma and Ah Zi gathered together in front of them, and read out the title of the scroll inlaid with silver borders on the table in unison with surprised faces.

"Someone challenged you?!"

Elma pointed to the scroll engraved with the scale coat of arms, and said in disbelief, "Why did he know you were a brave man? Someone leaked the secret?"

"if not?"

Zhou Li sneered, put his legs down, crossed his hands on his chin and said in a dark voice: "For the past half a month, no one has seen my real identity. And I only attended the meeting wearing a mask, so my identity can only be leaked."

Hearing this, Ah Zi has already started to frown slightly, now only four people on the field know Zhou Li's identity as a brave man.Hei Shu is more loyal to Zhou Li than dogs, and he rarely contacts the outside world.As for Elma, it depends on the communication and contact between the two of them on weekdays. The bond between the two is very terrifying, even surpassing the relationship between himself and Linghai, so the possibility of Elma revealing the identity of the brave is low. Outrageous.

Oh hoo, I'm the prime suspect.

But the problem is that I didn't disclose it.

Broken, something went wrong.

Immediately, countless possibilities emerged in Ah Zi's mind.No matter if someone secretly investigated Zhou Li's identity and used a trick to drive a wedge between him and Ah Zi.Or the brave enemy has long been aware of Zhou Li's identity and has already started a plan against Zhou Li.Among these possibilities, it was not Zhou Li and his partners who were hurt the most, but the Zisha Merchant Guild who had just joined the group and was full of flaws.

Ah Zi raised her head, and the conference room was already covered in dark clouds.Zhou Li was wearing a mask, so he couldn't see his expression clearly, but seeing his slightly twitching muscles at this time, he must be extremely annoyed.Elma on the side lowered her head, her face was pensive, and she raised her head to glance at herself and Zhou Li from time to time, presumably she had begun to doubt herself and was ready to wait for Zhou Li to give orders.

The seeds of distrust have been planted in everyone's hearts, and now they must act on their own.Once this kind of atmosphere spreads, even if her suspicions are cleared in the end, there will be a big gap between her and Zhou Li's group!
It must be clarified immediately, even if it will lose a certain amount of benefits, it must be cleared of its suspicion quickly!

"No ..."

Before AhZi opened her mouth to clarify, Elma who was at the side suddenly jumped up, pointed at Zhou Li and said:

"It's your fault again!"

"Hey?"

Ah Zi was stunned.Then, a burst of hearty and easy-going laughter sounded from the side, and Ah Zi took a closer look, and saw that it was Zhou Li who was laughing for no reason.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha."

Looking at Zhou Li who was laughing wantonly, Ah Zi has changed from the determination of a strong man cutting off his wrists to one full of question marks.

What are these two doing?

"As expected, it's you again!"

With her hands on her hips, Elma said to Zhou Li with a face full of indignation: "Could you please stop being tricky next time! It's scary, do you understand?!"

"Ah?" Ah Zi let out a dull voice, "Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah??? What's going on??"

Zhou Li betrayed Zhou Li?
Your Highness, why did you rebel?
"Why didn't someone else betray us?" Zhou Li looked at Elma, the corner of his mouth under the mask curled up, "I doubted me the first time, it made me very sad."

"Humph."

Elma snorted coldly, and there was a rare look of disdain on her face, which always had a gentle smile, "If someone really betrayed you, there is no way you would call us together and expose this kind of thing in person."

"This kind of aboveboard behavior is not at all your style."

Elma slapped the table, pointed at Zhou Li with one hand, and said righteously: "You will only pretend to be hypocritical on the surface, so that others can relax their vigilance. You poison behind your back, shoot cold arrows, set traps, and deliberately put laxatives in food while eating. Make a toast to the other party, shoot a magic video and play it 24 hours a day after throwing a bomb when someone is going to the toilet, and use the identity of a brave person to report to the church that this person has colluded with the Void Monster, and directly solve the problem!"

"This is you!!!"

After listening, Ah Zi shuddered.At this moment, she deeply understood one thing.

Fighting against Zhou Li and trying to rely on connections to get the death penalty should be the best ending.

"You finally learned to be smart."

Hearing Elma's words, Zhou Li looked at her, and said kindly, "I'm worthy of being a teacher to bring you by my side, to support you day and night, so that you can learn my wisdom."

Elma was taken aback when she heard the words, and then sighed helplessly.She stood up, walked to AZi's side, hugged her petite body, stretched out her hand to gently rub AZI's hair, and said softly to her:
"I'm really sorry, Ah Zi, for scaring you. Zhou Li always has such indirect convulsions. I'm really sorry. I apologize to you on behalf of Zhou Li."

"Ah?" Ah Zi groaned, but when she saw Erma's eyes as clear as lakes and that gentle and pitiful face, most of the panic and doubt she had just dissipated immediately.She nodded and said softly:

"It's okay, Elder Sister Elma." Ah Zi shook her head, returning to her usual calm appearance, "Mr. Zhou Li didn't say that I leaked the secret, it was just an ordinary fraud, I shouldn't take it too seriously .”

"but."

Ah Zi puffed up her cheeks, and said to Zhou Li angrily, "I would be scared if I was suddenly shocked! Mr. Zhou Li!"

"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's indeed my problem."

Zhou Li waved his hand and said with a smile, "This time is indeed my plan. I just thought of a very interesting novel plot just now, and it's just a sudden convulsion. It's really too much to scare Miss Ah Zi, so..."

Zhou Li stopped talking suddenly, and then under Ah Zi's surprised gaze, he took off the mask that had never been removed in front of others, revealing his true face.

"I hope to reach a long-term friendship with the Purple Shade Merchant Association, so I shouldn't pretend to be my face to Miss Ah Zi anymore."

Black hair, black eyes, handsome with a calm face.What surprised Ah Zi the most was not Zhou Li's face, but his youth.

Among the brave men of all dynasties, even the youngest Chonghuang was chosen by the gods when he advanced to gold at the age of 40.And if there is nothing wrong with AhZi's eyes——

This brave man is just a boy at all!
