Steampunk Era: Mad Abield

"Wow, Thainan set meal, my favorite kind of rice bowl." Mentor Amei Teiselk plopped down next to Logan, "Hey, your cousin seems alright."

"About that, it’s a long story..." After Malin brought all the food over, he explained again, and Mentor Amei Teiselk blinked, "So, you’re saying that among those five little bastards, four were double-crossers?"

"What’s a double-crosser?" Since it was a Thainan term, Logan and Cohen couldn’t understand at all, but Malin did. He couldn’t help but lament that although the world and eras were different, some phrases were still universally understood.

"It means traitor, but considering your actual identity... let’s just say that among the five of you, only that unlucky guy was doing the right thing. The rest of you were either there for the spectacle or holding him back." Mentor Amei Teiselk shook his head as he said this, "That kid’s entire family died, do you think he’s really the kind of person who wants you dead?"

"Not sure, but I’ve heard His Majesty say that none of the departments have any records about his identity, so it’s very likely that he genuinely wanted me dead." Malin sighed. Actually, among the five brats, he had a soft spot for Zhao Konghe, who shared a Chinese surname like his. It was just a pity, if it weren’t for the outcome.

But regardless, the incident ultimately went the way Malin wanted. At least he knew that although some people in this city disliked him, there were also those who liked him.

Lady Manli being stopped by His Majesty this time proved it.
