Struggle in Russia

Lavre replied frankly: "...My hostess thinks that these people should have a lot of background and have been working in Kiev for a long time, otherwise it would be impossible to discover Shuvalov's attempt. And these people are very likely to be related to Shuva Love or the forces behind him don't deal with it, otherwise it won't destroy his good deeds..."

These things don't mean much to Viscount Prozolov, because he can probably guess that what he wants to know is something that can be more to the point, preferably something that can clear the fog.

So did Petrovna have such a thing?

Don't underestimate this woman. The reason why Petrovna can become Kiev's leading courtesan, and why she can be favored by Shuvalov, must have real skills.

Afterwards, she carefully thought about all aspects of the problem, and she also had some guesses about the third force that suddenly appeared.

"...My hostess thought back and forth, replayed the film over and over again, and went through all possible problems. She thinks that the problem is likely to be Bruning!"

"Bruning?"

Viscount Prozolov repeated it silently. Just now he was also thinking about what would be wrong with Shuvalov's operation, but he really didn't pay much attention to this liar. He thought he was just a small person.

But Petrovna cared about this person very much, so Viscount Prozolov couldn't take it lightly.

He asked, "Is that liar? What's wrong with him?"

Raffle replied: "There is no problem, but my hostess thinks that if there is any problem in this operation, then he is the key point!"

After a short pause, Raffle seemed to have something to say but didn't know whether to say it, Viscount Prozolov immediately caught this expression, and immediately said: "Is there anything wrong? You can say anything wrong Listen!"

Raffle said: "When my mistress recalled it afterwards, she felt that it was suspicious that Bruning suddenly took Zhenia out on a trip beforehand. Even if he explained that it was Zhenia's intention, he couldn't resist, but My hostess thinks that with his grip on Zhenia, it shouldn't be a big deal if he refuses to travel...and it was shortly before the incident, and the trip always feels weird .”

Viscount Prozolov immediately groaned, and immediately agreed with Petrovna's judgment that there was indeed something wrong with this trip. It is very likely that Bruning was using this trip to cover up something. Those mysterious third forces meet.

So he immediately asked, "Isn't this Zhenia who fled with her family in the end?"

Ralph smiled bitterly: "Yes,

After the incident, she and her brother and other relatives disappeared with their family property, probably fled abroad. "

Viscount Prozolov nodded slowly, he had already sketched out such a picture in his mind, Bruining and Zhenia were bought by the mysterious third force, intentionally disturbing Shuvalov's good deeds , and then enjoy the rest of his life with a lot of money.

Such an arrangement is reasonable, and the price is not high. With the cooperation of Zhenia and Brunin, the third force naturally knows Shuvalov's actions well, and it is too easy to destroy his good facts.

Thinking of this, he asked, "What is the background of this Bruning? How did your mistress find him?"

Although Raffle was a little confused about talking about these irrelevant things, he wanted to talk more about the conditions for joining the group, but Viscount Prozolov made it clear that he was very interested in these things and paid special attention to them, and this was not an unspoken secret, He can only continue to accompany.

Hearing Raffle's explanation of Bruning's background, Viscount Prozolov frowned again, because from Raffle's description alone, this Bruning should not be so suspicious, because he is indeed a genuine Liars, not spies sent by other forces.

It stands to reason that such a liar is unlikely to be related to other forces. There must be missing links that have not been discovered. Viscount Prozolov believes that if these missing links can be found, the veil of the mysterious third force will be Was pulled away.

It's a pity that he doesn't have any more evidence for the time being, and even if he needs to investigate, it won't be done in a while. That still has to be considered in the long run, and the most important thing now is to get Petrovna done, that's the most important thing.

"Well, about these mysterious third forces, if you or your hostess remembers or discovers anything, please let me know as soon as possible, I am also very interested in them!"

Viscount Prozolov paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Now let's continue our business. You just said that Count Shuvalov once promised to help your mistress enter the upper class of St. Petersburg, because your mistress desires a bigger Show off your charm and talent on stage, right?"

Raffle held his breath for a moment, he knew that the meat scene was finally coming, he restrained his excitement, nodded slowly and said: "Yes!"

Viscount Prozolov smiled slightly and said: "Well then, I can ask Grand Duke Constantine to give your mistress the same conditions, His Royal Highness and I can help him enter the upper class of St. Petersburg, and will give her a bigger one." The stage can even help her set up everything she needs to be able to call the wind and rain on this platform!"

Raffle's breathing became more and more heavy, because this was exactly what Petrovna wanted, but he knew that things were not that simple, and the other party must have conditions.

Sure enough, Viscount Prozolov immediately said again: "The premise is that your mistress serves me wholeheartedly for His Royal Highness!"

Raffle frowned slightly, and he clearly understood the meaning of Viscount Prozolov. The viscount emphasized himself, which obviously meant something.

"what do you mean?"

Viscount Prozolov is getting more and more satisfied with Raffle. He likes smart people, and he can understand the key points with just a little bit, and those so-called aristocratic wooden lumps can't be knocked out with a stick. , really made him anxious.

"What I mean is obvious. For His Royal Highness, in St. Petersburg, he has countless noble ladies or ladies who are better than your mistress rushing to serve him. Your mistress is not that important to him!"

Speaking of this, Prozolov paused slightly, and said with a smile: "But it's different for me. Your mistress is very suitable for my needs. I need a woman like her who is smart enough and capable enough to act as my eyes and ears. and eyeliner..."
