The Dark King

Chapter 168: Establishing a Consortium

Du Dian glanced at Bai Nenxiao and said to the two: "If I were the murderer, I believe I wouldn't be so stupid as to use steel nails to assassinate the deacon of the trial just after being released on bail. With such a clear sign, I think it is someone Those who know the inside story have ulterior motives to frame me and frame me, after all, killing people with steel nails is too rare."

Hearing Du Dian's "inside story", the old man and the middle-aged man looked at each other, and they naturally knew that this inside story was referring to Du Dian's escape. It can be known that Du Dian has indeed escaped from prison, and the evidence is conclusive, but since this matter has been covered up, they are unwilling to investigate further. The main purpose of this time is to find the murderer who assassinated Deacon Hollet.

Judging from the current blood test, it does not seem that Du Dian did it.

"Stop talking nonsense!" The middle-aged man scolded and said, "Tell me honestly, did you kill other people with this steel nail before assassinating Deacon Hollet?"

Du Di'an smiled bitterly: "This is really wrong. Although I have had a holiday with Deacon Hollet, I will not do such a crazy thing because of it. I have just been released on bail, but I don't want to cause any trouble."

The middle-aged man stared at him carefully, and after a while, he exchanged glances with the old man. The old man thoughtfully waved his hand and said, "Check other people's."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly, and immediately collected the blood of other people according to the previous method.

"After this "homogenous worm" has eaten, it will take 12 hours before it is willing to eat other blood of different types. "The middle-aged man said indifferently.

The four people next to them looked at each other, and the young man couldn't help but said: "How can this be done, I'm just the object of suspicion, and you want to limit my freedom?"

"Stop chattering!" the middle-aged man shouted.

The young man's expression changed, he gritted his teeth, and said nothing.

Du Di'an said to the old man, "I've verified mine, can I go?"

The old man glanced at him and said meaningfully: "Remember your current bail status. If there is a new result, please cooperate and be on call, otherwise you will be arrested on the charge of fugitive crime."

Du Dian nodded and said: "Of course, I also hope that you can catch the murderer sooner, and I want to see if it's just a coincidence, or who wants to frame me."

The old man nodded slightly and said to the middle-aged man next to him: "This case doesn't seem like an ordinary person's work. Later, you can apply to the headquarters and send a 'Punisher' to investigate."

The middle-aged man looked stunned, nodded and said, "I see."

A trial guard was instructed to take Du Dian away, and the other four were also brought into a special detention room. The old man instructed the middle-aged man: "Go and investigate the recent death cases immediately and see the blood on the deceased's bodies. , is it the same as the one on this steel nail?"

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up and immediately agreed.

...

...

When he came back, without the escort of the trial knight, Du Dian could only hire a carriage and return to the town of Yade.

When Barton and others saw Du Di'an returning safely, they were very surprised and went up to ask questions.

Du Dian briefly talked to the three of them, reassuring them, and then rode in a carriage and came to Lane Castle.

This time, it was an open and honest visit. Entering from the main entrance, after passing the notification from the guards at the entrance, he entered the ancient castle of Lane.

The old patriarch Fulin sat in the hall and waited. When he saw Du Dian being introduced by the guards, a look of shock flashed in his eyes, but his face was full of smiles. He stepped forward and said: "Welcome, it's a rare visitor, we have not had hunters in Lane Castle for many years. I've come to visit, please take a seat."

There was also a young man and a young girl in the hall. Judging from their brightly colored clothes, they should be the grandchildren of Mr. Fulin. When the two heard this, their faces couldn't help showing a bit of joy. They knew that hunters meant a lot of wealth and money!

"Hello, my name is Houghton!" The young man stepped forward and shook hands with Du Dian.

Du Dian shook hands with him briefly,

With a smile, he said, "You're welcome, I'm here this time to talk to Old Patriarch Fulin about cooperation."

"Cooperation?" Hughton was a little surprised when he heard these two words.

Although the Lane family is a part of the Mellon consortium, there are many nobles under the Mellon consortium, and the share of the commission is allocated according to the proportion of the shares. The resources brought back from the wall each time pass the inherent commission of the Holy See of Light, and the rest The two main founders of the consortium, the Mel family and the Bloom family, will take the bulk, and the remaining small part will be distributed to these declining families.

In the entire Mellon consortium, the Lane family belonged to the bottom and the bottom, so the money allocated to them was almost very little, unless the hunters of the consortium had a great harvest outside the wall, they could earn Last one.

However, if a hunter serves their family alone, the resources hunted from outside the wall only need to remove the income of the Holy See of Light and the income of the hunter themselves, and the rest belongs to their family. Although a single hunter can't support a noble, but for the Lane family, it can improve the family's living conditions a lot, and over the years, they can slowly accumulate the next wealth.

"Lord Hunter, you are so young." The girl next to him looked at Du Di'an with surprise.

Houghton hurriedly shouted: "Don't talk nonsense."

The girl stuck out her tongue and pulled back behind him.

The old patriarch Fulin smiled lightly and said to Du Di'an: "Mr. Du, please come with me." He greeted the middle-aged maid next to him to help, with a cane, and led the way in front.

Du Dian followed him and went upstairs to his study.

After entering the house, the old patriarch Fulin instructed the middle-aged maid to step back and closed the door.

There were only two people left in the room, and the smiles on the faces of Du Di'an and Fulin's old patriarchs subsided slightly. The old patriarch Fulin sat on his chair, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said to Du Di'an: "Today, you were brought to the trial by the court for investigation, and I am quite surprised that you can come back safely."

Du Dian smiled lightly, pulled a chair and sat down at will, and said, "I can't find any evidence, so naturally I have to leave."

Old Patriarch Fulin narrowed his eyes and said, "Isn't the steel nail that killed Hollett evidence? Could it be that the Tribunal didn't investigate anything from above?"

Du Dian looked at him with interest and said, "Do you mean the blood on the nails, or the smell?"

The old patriarch Fulin moved his eyes and said, "What do you mean?"

Du Dian smiled and said: "Do you also think that I used steel nails to assassinate Hollet for revenge?"

Old Patriarch Fulin was stunned, "Isn't it?"

Du Dian smiled and said, "I won't talk about this today. When I need your help, I will find you. I came here this time to really discuss cooperation with you."

"Oh?" Old Patriarch Fulin opened his eyes slightly and said, "What kind of cooperation?"

Du Dian smiled and said, "In the name of your Ryan family, create a new consortium." (To be continued). If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at the starting point (), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read. )
