Chapter 69 Possible Assassination

"It doesn't matter." Gavin waved his hand and interrupted him: "I also want to meet those brothers and sisters."

Then Gavin changed the subject and asked who would be at tomorrow's party. Tyron Rayyan, who wanted to continue inquiring, had no choice but to introduce Gavin.

Through the introduction, Gavin just learned that the slightly fat messenger in front of him came from Leyan, one of the keykeeper families of the Iron Treasury.

The Iron Bank is the most important bank in Braavos, and its business spans almost all over the world. The Braavos people have a proverb: "The iron bank cannot be defaulted", which is derived from this.

Gavin thought that there were as many as twenty-three keykeeper families, so it was understandable that he could not remember so many surnames.

About half an hour later, Lun Gong arrived at the seaside villa arranged by Neptune for Gavin. Dozens of maids and servants serving here came to the door early to wait.

The architectural style of the villa is unique, subtly blending the sophistication and elegance of Braavos. The white walls gleam softly under the sunlight, and the red roof contrasts with the surrounding blue sea and sky, making it look particularly bright and moving.

Stepping into the courtyard, you can see flowers and green trees. The breeze blew gently, and the flowers swayed, exuding wisps of fragrance. Walking along the path paved with bluestones, Gavin came to a viewing platform in the courtyard.

Standing here and looking out, you can have an unobstructed view of the vast sea and busy docks. The entire Braavos shows a prosperous scene, with ships passing back and forth, just like fish swimming in the sea. In the blue sky, seagulls soar freely, sometimes swooping towards the sea, sometimes fluttering their wings, and their cheerful chirps add a bit of vitality and vitality to this wonderful scenery.

Gavin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Neptune's arrangements for his guests were really thoughtful and meticulous, and he was worthy of being a host who often invited people to be his guests.

Suddenly, magic power surged in his body, and Chi Ying's emotions came to him. Gavin suppressed the surging magic power and murmured to himself: "Be patient for a while, and then let you out later."

Night quietly enveloped Braavos, and the seaside house where Gavin lived was immersed in tranquility. The moonlight fell on the stone pavement in the courtyard, giving off a faint silvery glow.

Suddenly, a black shadow quietly appeared at the courtyard door and knocked gently on the door. The soldier on duty carefully opened a gap, and after seeing the appearance of the person clearly, he let him in.

The man walked through the courtyard surrounded by flowers, and his footsteps were particularly clear in the quiet night. Not long after, he saw Gavin who had been waiting here. The man quickly bowed and saluted: "Sir Gavin, you are here."

Gavin narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Are you the one who was arranged here by Boris?"

"Yes, sir." The man responded.

"Tell me about the situation before I got here?" Gavin stared at him sharply.

The man hurriedly said: "As the news of your possession of the dragon, Lord Gavin, spread here, the Purple Fleet personnel in Braavos have stopped taking vacations and have been recalled to the ship. The fleet sailors who were previously hanging out in taverns and brothels are now missing. The purple fleet is currently heavily guarded, and people are strictly prohibited from approaching the dock where the fleet is docked. In addition, the villain also saw many long crossbow arrows made of iron being transported to various fortresses in the port. The villain speculated that they may be on guard against your dragon. "

Gavin nodded and said calmly: "These actions are normal. It would be strange if they were not prepared. What is the situation of the brother and sister?"

The man continued: "Just after the news of your dragon reached Braavos, Neptune immediately sent people to find the brother and sister, placed them in a house, and entertained them. In addition, Eli from Pentos Governor Leo arrived in Braavos yesterday. Today, he went to visit the brother and sister, but was turned away by the guards arranged by Neptune. I heard that he had conveyed news to Neptune's palace, and he might attend the ceremony to welcome you tomorrow. banquet.”

After hearing this, Gavin frowned slightly and fell into thinking: "This may be the butterfly effect caused by my appearance. After the news of my dragon spreads, it may force Varys and Illyrio to advance their plans, otherwise according to the It is estimated that Viserys will wander here for another year, but I wonder if Illyrio has contacted the Horse King. If he has not, what reason will he use to persuade Viserys to leave with him? "

Seeing Gavin pacing back and forth thinking, the man waited quietly. Suddenly Gavin stopped and asked, "Did anything else happen?"

The man pondered for a moment, and then replied: "My lord, there are many people coming and going in Braavos, and I don't know whether the information is useful to you. However, I heard that a Lysian warship came, and the people who got off the ship were carrying many The box went to the House of Black and White. I wonder if this message is useful to you.”

Gavin was also confused after hearing this. Officials from Lis came to the House of Black and White. Are they going to hire faceless men? Who is Rhys going to kill? Gavin racked his brains but couldn't figure out Reese's goal. Currently, the disputed area is relatively stable and conflicts have not broken out in the surrounding area. The alliance of the Three Daughters Kingdom is still stable.

Could it be me? As soon as this bizarre thought emerged, Gavin shook his head. With his current status and power, the cost of letting the Faceless Men assassinate him would probably be extremely high.

Suddenly Gavin thought that the high price did not mean that Lis could not afford it. After all, Lis was one of the nine major trading city-states. No one knew how much wealth he had. Moreover, the relationship between Lis and him was not good in the first place, and even more so because of his existence. Reese has completely withdrawn from the Stepstone Islands. Now that he has Blazing Shadow, Reese may be more afraid of him, and his desire to get rid of him may be even stronger.

Thinking of this, Gavin decided to be vigilant during his visit to Braavos, in case Lys was willing to pay a price to hire the Faceless Man, even if the possibility was very small.

Then Gavin took out a bag of gold dragons and threw it to the man: "Ask if those Lys people have left. If not, check their residence."

The man took the bag full of gold dragons, quickly put it in his arms, and bowed: "Don't worry, sir, I will find out."

After the man left, Gavin called the accompanying guard and ordered: "Strengthen the protection here. From today, set a password, and change the password every day. Except for the Blood Dragon Guard, anyone who can't answer the password will be killed, including our own people. The servants and maids left in the other courtyard by the Sea King are not allowed to go out without reason. If you have to go out, send someone to follow them and they are not allowed to leave your sight. And check all the food sent in to prevent poisoning."

Guardian: "Yes, sir, I will arrange it immediately."
