Lord of the Silver Crow

Chapter 400 The Weird Butler

According to the information obtained before, the Extraordinary of the Twilight Path, or the Middle Sequence, if not from a place other than Red Rose City, would be the Twilight Church or the Stein family.

Or... dressage ball?

Glancing at his cane sword, Yago thought to himself.

But Shugyin's opinion is that the Extraordinary may be an accomplice or enemy of the button owner.

While it's uncertain how likely it was that the dressage ball was involved, it's not impossible.

Before night came and he went to the next church stronghold to find the mask, he could find the owner of the button and see the situation.

Of course, he didn't forget to change his posture.

Following the line of probability, starting from the vicinity of the University City, Yago came all the way to the vicinity of Shinan District.

The central area of ​​the city is a bustling commercial, financial and economic zone. The university town in the outer circle of the east of the city and the southwestern part of the city are the industrial zone. The south of the city is home to large residential areas and various small companies.

Whether it is going to the industrial area or the commercial company in the west of the city, or the central financial district, or the university town, it is very convenient.

Even if the downtown area is not comparable, there are a lot of people here.

Immediately, he whispered to the cane:

"Sir, it's time to spin the roulette wheel."

In the south of the city, in front of a small independent manor, several well-dressed young people were gathering at the door.

Although the price of land in Shinan is much cheaper than the price of every inch of land in the city center, there is no doubt that compared with the situation where most people can only rent townhouses or even spread straw mats on the floor, a big house The house and a large yard are enough to show that its owner has good economic strength.

Although, for the "upper class" people, this yard is too small, but it is obvious that the people who will come here are not upper class.

And being able to afford a housekeeper makes these young people who try their best to dress themselves up to be more envious.

The well-dressed butler, after opening the door, said to the young people in front of him:

"I think you should all know the rules, right?"

The young people nodded in unison:

"Then everyone, please come in."

The young people entered the hall of the house, led by the butler, turned to the left, and came to the dinner room.

In the dinner room, an old man with gray beard and hair who looked to be in his sixties or seventies was sitting in the dinner room, looking at the young people with a kind smile on his face:

"Welcome back, my children, you are a little late today."

"Father." The young people said this title unevenly, with smiles on their faces.

Then, one after another, young people sat down in their seats. Even if some of them were not skilled, the old man smiled and looked at everyone kindly.

While talking and eating, this "dinner" was over soon.

After talking with the elders, the young people left one by one.

And when they walked out of the house, the housekeeper standing by the door would hand them a few silver coins.

These young people left the house after receiving it with a smile on their faces.

After everyone had left, the butler closed the door and went into the dinner room.

"master."

At this moment, although the old man was still smiling, there was no trace of kindness left on his face.

He glanced at the leftover food scraps on the various dishes on the table, and said in a cold voice:

"Number 2 will change today, record his condition."

"yes."

The butler bowed his head respectfully, and then, he raised his hand and gently tugged——

Several maids appeared in his vision and began to clear the food on the table.

After finishing all this, the housekeeper bowed his head respectfully and left the house.

The old man just stared at the butler's back coldly.

The door opened, and the butler, who was wearing a black tailored suit, came out of the room and walked left along the street.

Yago, who had changed his appearance, stood at the intersection, watching this scene.

His eyes fell on the button in his hand.

The silk threads extending from the buttons are connecting the man in the neat tailor-made clothes.

That man, the steward of the little estate, was the button's owner.

and

Yago's eyes focused on the line of probability on the opponent's body.

The lines of probability densely extending from the opponent's body connected to the mansion.

That mansion is not a normal place either.

He didn't follow immediately, but after the opponent left his sight, Yago followed along the line of probability.

However, at this time, he discovered several lines of probability.

In an instant, he changed his mind, and instead of continuing to follow, he walked to the bus stop sign.

At the corner of the block, a man pressed the black felt hat on his head and cursed in a low voice:

"Cut, passing by"

And beside him, a small young man said:

"Are we still investigating?"

"Sure, there are strange young people going to the house every now and then. I don't think it's easy."

The man said in a low voice:

"It was found out before that the old man suffered from dementia a few years ago. After that, the old man's property was sold off by the housekeeper, and he even hired a few young people to pretend to be the old man's son."

"I think there is something wrong with the butler."

Regarding the man's words, the little young man just echoed, and then said:

"If you have any questions, let's talk about it. In short, be careful. We are only buying and selling information. Don't risk your life. I still want to live."

"Don't worry, I can't do anything else. It's okay for me to escape. If it doesn't work, I will lead people to the factory area."

The man smiled, showing his yellow teeth, which made the young man retreat half a body in disgust.

The man's smile fell.

Before the little young man could say anything, the man left the street corner.

The man moved all the way, trying to keep up with the butler who was going out, but when he followed the other's moving route and came to a narrow house alley, the moment he just turned the corner, he saw a pair of indifferent eyes , and three sharp blades that flew out, shining with silver light.

Blood splattered.

When he tried to resist, he did feel a pain in his back——

A half-length dagger pierced his throat.

In his whooping sound, the dagger was pressed hard, and it was pressed down to the ground together with his body.

Soon, the corpse stopped moving.

The butler also pulled out his dagger, wiped it clean, dragged him into the alley, and left immediately.

In the sky, a few fog crows landed on the top of the alley, with pairs of crow eyes staring at the corpse on the ground.
