Chapter 276 Task assigned
Chapter 276 Task assigned
"What kind of magic power does this little dwarf have? He can actually charm you like this."
"If you ask me, his appearance is not up to standard. Do you want me to introduce some young talents to you..."
Before he finished speaking, Talkoko picked up the handkerchief in front of him and threw it at Princess Anne.
"You're really annoying, Annie! If you keep doing this, I'll ignore you!"
Princess Anne looked at Talkoko's red cheeks and laughed:
"Look at how shy you are. I really hit the nail on the head. I'm telling you..."
Without waiting for Anne to finish her words, Talkoko quickly stood up, put his hands on Princess Anne's waist and began to tickle her.
Soon, the two girls were laughing and playing together.
After laughing for a while, the two sat down on the bench side by side, looking at the bleak scenery in the distance.
Princess Anne gently nudged Talcoco with her shoulder and asked:
"Keke, do you really like Qin Xinghe? I mean, the serious kind of like."
Talkoko did not respond, but just sighed softly, with a sad look on his face, as if he had endless thoughts and entanglements in his heart.

Princess Anne looked at him with a somewhat apologetic expression and explained in an embarrassed tone:
"My father said that he has not been tried yet. If he is proven innocent after the trial, he can be released without a pardon."
"But if he is found guilty after trial, then Father will not pardon him. You should know that in our Riyuan country, the crime of espionage is punishable by immediate death."
Hearing this, Talkoko's eyes turned red and he looked panicked.
Princess Anne saw this and quickly hugged his arms, gently comforting him:
"Don't worry, there will always be a way. I will go and ask Father once more before the trial in a while."
"If it doesn't work, I'll go and help you make a scene at my brother's place."
"But I really don't understand what's so good about that little dwarf. You've only known each other for a few days. Why are you so worried about him?"
At this point, Princess Anne suddenly sighed and continued to speak to herself:
"But I really envy you. When you meet someone you like, you can be with him without any constraints. But I... can't do that..."
Hearing this, Talkoko asked curiously in a gentle voice:
"How could you possibly envy me? In order to survive, I have to travel around to shoot materials and stay up late to write articles. It's hard for me to have a stable life. In fact, I envy you for being carefree all day long."
Princess Anne leaned her head on Talcoco's shoulder and said softly:
"Alas, what do you envy about me? Although I seem to have no worries at all, I was born in a royal family. On the surface, it looks glorious, but who knows what kind of mess it is behind the scenes?"
Talkoko looked at Princess Anne with astonishment, seemingly surprised why she said that.
Princess Anne continued in a steady and calm tone:
"I guess you should also know that my three brothers are fighting openly and secretly for the right to inherit the throne."
"They always think they can fool me by pretending to be nice in front of me, but in fact I know everything."
"Many times, I just wanted to cooperate with them in acting out the love between brother and sister."
"As for my father, Emperor Macbeth, he always looks high and mighty. In his mind, the only thing he cares about is how to hold on to the power in his hands."
"My biological mother passed away very early, and for me, a lot of the time, I was just alone. You would never imagine how lonely I was."
After saying this, Princess Anne suddenly smiled widely and shook Talcoco's arm:
"However, fortunately, I still have a good friend like you who can come and accompany me from time to time, and I can also tell you some of my inner thoughts."
"So, my dear Coco, please don't put love before friendship, and pay more attention to me, okay?"
Tarkoko tapped Princess Anne's forehead gently and said unwillingly:
"You're so annoying. When did I ever put love before friendship? How could you say that to me?"
Princess Anne stood up and said with a smile:
"You still say you don't have any? Look at you. Whenever you think of that dwarf, Qin Xinghe, you look as worried as if you're about to faint. No matter what you do, your mind is always wandering. Even a fool can tell that you really like him."

Hearing this, Talkoko covered his mouth and chuckled:
"You figured it out? That proves you're really a fool."
Annie snorted, "Hey, you dare to laugh at me! I originally thought of a way to take you to see your beloved, but you actually called me a fool, so I won't help you then..."
Before Annie could finish her words, Talkoko grabbed the soft flesh around her waist and started tickling her without mercy.
The lovely princess was so upset that she trembled. "You annoying Anne, you actually learned to speak half of the words and keep the other half. In my hometown, you will be beheaded if you do this."
Princess Anne was very ticklish, and now she was laughing so hard that she couldn't breathe. After just a few ticks, she started begging for mercy:
"My dear Coco, stop scratching me. I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
After Talcoco withdrew his "evil" hands and took a few breaths, Annie finally started to explain:
"In a few days, a competition called 'A Glimmer of Hope' will be held in the Bastille. The upper-class people of the Sun Kite Kingdom will go to watch it, but the competition is very bloody, and generally speaking, no ladies will be there."
"But I am the princess, and I have the final say. As my lady-in-waiting, you can come in with me, and we can find a chance to see your little dwarf."
So that's how it is... After finding the way to enter the Bastille, Tarcoco nodded and made a secret decision in his heart.

Today is a rare sunny day. The prisoners in the Bastille Prison gathered in the playground during their exercise time and basked in the sun comfortably.
One of the top forces in this prison, Pesticide, was whispering with his top fighter, Boxing Champion Tyson:
"We'll be on a mission soon." Pesticide whispered this as if jokingly.
Boxing champion Tyson twisted his strong neck and asked expressionlessly: "Oh? What mission?"
This muscular humanoid murder weapon has been serving nearly four years in prison.
For him, the whole meaning of persisting for so long is to complete the tasks assigned by his master.
More than a thousand days passed, and the task was finally delivered to him.
"Two tasks have been determined: the first task is to create a riot during the upcoming ring competition."
"And the second mission is to find an opportunity to kill a prisoner named Qin Xinghe."
"Qin Xinghe? That little dwarf?" Boxing champion Tyson asked in confusion, then nodded and said, "If I remember correctly, he seems to have been registered as a contestant by Gray Tiger, right?"
"Yes, what's your problem?" the exterminator asked.
"No problem. Is there a time limit to kill that short guy?" Boxing champion Tyson began to do push-ups nonchalantly.
"No, whatever your mood." Insecticide also lay down next to Tyson and started doing push-ups together.
"Then I won't need to do anything. I'm sure he won't survive this fight." Tyson switched to one hand.
"It doesn't matter. As long as he doesn't breathe before my next report, it'll be fine. As for the riot, you better pay attention. The higher-ups will give you a specific time later. Ouch...!" Insecticide also tried with one hand, but ended up biting it to the ground in an embarrassing way.
At this time, Insecticide raised his head and saw in the distance that the leader of another gang, his mortal enemy, Gray Tiger, was waving and calling "Qin Xinghe" who had just entered the playground to come to him.
The insecticide watched them talking face to face, thought for a moment, and then casually instructed boxing champion Tyson:
"Don't underestimate that little dwarf. It is said that he is possessed by a ghost."
Boxing champion Tyson stood up and responded, "Haha, possessed by a ghost? Even if it's a ghost from hell, I will beat him back to his original form." After that, he turned and left.
