Chapter 176: The Deflected Search Team

South, Longjiao Province.

A team of more than 100 investigators walked through the mountain road. They wore black cloaks and armors, long swords around their waists, and bows and arrows. They were extremely elite.

In this team, the lowest-strength members also have Sequence 2, while there are about 60 Sequence 3 and above, more than 20 Sequence 4 elites, and a Sequence 6 investigator leading the way.

He is about 30 years old, with a solemn face and a tall hat in the shape of a bamboo shoot, which is quite majestic.

"Is that the Viscounty of Winlani in front?" The black warhorse raised its front legs, stepped in the air, and then stood on the spot. This is a mixed-race horse-type beast. Although it is only Sequence 2, its endurance and speed are far better than ordinary ones. horses.

"Yes, my lord. Now the ruler of the Viscounty of Winlani is the daughter of the former Viscount, Gavier. . . "

"A girl who hasn't married yet?" The investigator frowned upon hearing this.

"Yes."

"Abnormally there must be demons. How can she be such a girl who doesn't know the world, how can she manage a good territory? I'm afraid she is a puppet of a dark force, hum."

"Let's go have a look." After speaking, the officer waved the whip again, and then led the person forward.

The horse's hoofs splashed dust, and such a group of black-clothed cavalry gradually marched towards Shanyingcheng.

In the lord's mansion in the city, Lu Bin was busy and orderly commanding everyone.

"Have the fields outside the city been arranged?"

"It's arranged. It has been trampled several times by people leading the cow. It looks messy, and it is no longer as neat as it used to be."

"The street has also been specially asked. It has not been cleaned for a week, and a lot of garbage was deliberately thrown away, making it look dirty."

"Having a few flexible old fritters ready, there will be troubles and protests, which shows that our governance level is poor."

"The soldiers who were usually trained were disbanded and went home to work in agriculture, and temporarily recruited a group of people to be soldiers, which seemed to be 'normal'."

"Several other surrounding towns have also made similar arrangements, and they have all sent people to act."

"Don't worry, boss, what the other party can't see, it's all performances, haha." Several dark-skinned old farmers said to Lu Bin with a smile.

"Of course I rest assured, but who knows what outrageous actions will be made by those people." Lubin shook his head, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

"That's it, everyone go home first, as we said before."

"No problem!" After saying that, the crowd dispersed.

"Miss Jialan, what do you think?" After Lubin explained, he was still a little worried and asked Roland Hill beside him to see if there was anything missing.

"No, you've done a good job." Roland Hill raised one hand, loosened the hair on his shoulders, and walked to the middle of the courtyard, closing his eyes and praying.

Then a gust of wind gradually blew up and slowly rolled over the entire city, covering up some imperfect details to make it more natural.

In the afternoon, a rush of hooves stepped into the city. These elite cavalrymen stopped in the square in the city and looked around.

"Hello, sir, who are you?" a soldier nodded and asked.

"Where is your lord, I have been ordered to inspect the counties in the province." The inspector held the reins in one hand and glanced around the square, asking about the local situation. The streets here are similar to other places, and they are a little messy. It really is a small city.

"The Lord's Mansion is on the other side of the street, and Miss Gavier currently lives there." The soldier pointed to a wide street.

"Very well, let's go." After speaking, the group continued to move forward, and did not dismount until they reached the lord's mansion.

Seeing that these people were coming, the guards at the gate hurried in to report, and a young housekeeper brought people out to greet them soon after.

"Hello, my lord, what's the matter with the sudden visit? Miss Gerwell asked me to entertain you."

"It's something." He said as he walked, and kept looking at the situation in the lord's mansion. Seeing that the environment here was beautiful and the streets outside were completely different, he knew it.

Sure enough, she is a noble lady who doesn't care about the outside world, but only cares about the environment where she lives.

Climbing up the steps of the mansion, before entering the hall, the inspector asked all his subordinates to wait outside, and he only brought 10 people inside.

"Welcome, I am Gavier, and the owner of the territory today." A girl in a crow blue dress saluted, and then asked the maids to come over and serve tea.

"Hello, Miss Gavier." Although he didn't care about this weak noble girl, the etiquette on the surface had to be maintained. After a few simple greetings, the inspector asked about the recent situation.

"I heard that at the end of last year, there was a fierce rebellion in the territory, so that the previous Viscount passed away. I don't know how you survived such a crisis after that?"

"This has to start with a hero passing through the territory..."

Gavier began to tell how the nameless knight, on the night of burning flames, saved the city, while at the same time subduing the evil rebels.

His words were full of praise and praise for the knight, like a girl who was addicted to love, although she did have a good impression of the hero.

With this appearance of Gavier, the investigator judged her as a nympho girl who lacked outside knowledge in her boudoir. It is estimated that she had read too many novels of Knight Princess and was addicted to such similar characters.

Such aristocratic girls are not uncommon, he can meet several every year, and he has long been surprised.

"Cough cough." Interrupting Gavier's expectations and praise for the knight for the time being, the investigator asked her about the whereabouts of the knight.

"Master Wuming left Longjiao Province some time ago and went to other places."

"Other places? Does he have a description?" The man frowned slightly, such a powerful person is an unstable person wherever he goes.

"I don't know, but before he left, he said that he was going to defeat some evil organization in the dark."

"Is there still such an existence? Why haven't I heard of it." In fact, as a search officer, he had heard a lot of similar things, but most of them were not true. Either they say that they can exaggerate the enemy for their own sake, or because their observations are one-sided, the inferences are full of mistakes.

"There should be, because my father may have died because of them." Gavier sobbed slightly, telling how the evil butler confuses his father, corrupts the power in the territory step by step, and finally leads to People change.

"Oh, is there still this medicine? I want to see if there are any samples left."

"I don't know about this either. I usually tell the servants to deal with it." Gerwell said according to the previous explanation.

"What about the housekeeper, where are the others?"

"It's in the dungeon. If you want to see him, I can let someone guide you." Gavier said he didn't care.

"Hmph, go and meet, maybe you can find some clues about your father's death."

Shortly after finishing speaking, several guards led the men in black to the low cell under the leadership of Lu Bin.

"The former butler is being held here, Boworth." Lubin stopped at the intersection, and then asked the investigator to lead the three of them to face the arrested butler alone.

The housekeeper locked in the cell shouted in surprise when he saw someone coming.

"I was wronged. I was wronged. It's all my fault. It was they who deceived the eldest young lady and arrested me. I am the one who is loyal to the Wenlani family."

"Shut up!" A black-clothed sergeant whipped the railing with a whip, which made the housekeeper startled, and his voice suddenly disappeared.

"I ask, you answer." The inspector stood in front of the iron fence wearing a heavy and black cloak, staring at the butler coldly, and behind him stood a group of black-clothed sergeants with a particularly solemn aura.

"Yes, yes, you asked." The butler's voice softened and became weaker.

"Did you confuse the former Viscount with the potion?"

"No, I didn't, that was a frame-up, a frame-up!"

"Shut up!" A sergeant shouted again, interrupting his sophistry.

The gloomy magic power spilled out from these investigators and slowly invaded the cell, making the housekeeper feel cold all over his body, like a sharp knife scraping through his body.

The short seconds were like ten years, which was extraordinarily long, and finally he couldn't bear it any longer.

"I said, I said, I did buy some special perfume, uh, perfume, yes." His voice trembled.

"But those are just to please the Viscount. You should also understand that servants like me can only survive if they please their masters."

"I did not murder the master, I am faithful."

"You're lying." Staring at the housekeeper with gloomy eyes, the investigator clearly noticed that the other party was not telling the truth.

As a professional investigator, he has a lot of skills and abilities in lie detection, and such a clumsy deception cannot be concealed from his eyes and ears.

"I'll give you one more minute. If you still think about it, don't think about going out alive." The voice was slow and cold, making the butler's voice froze like a jam, and his body didn't move.

Seeing that he didn't answer, a sergeant began to count him slowly.

"48, 47, 46...21, 20, 19..."

As the dead end of time approached, the butler's forehead began to sweat, and he felt his hands tremble. He began to suspect that these people really dared to kill him, regardless of the lord's face, Miss Gavier.

"No no, no, I said, I said, I..." He raised his hand in pain, and then began to explain some things from the past.

For example, how to get on that line, how to buy a special medicine, how to make the Viscount trust him, and start hoarding money, etc.

After everything was explained, it was already a few hours later.

These people took the records they had made, walked out of the cell, and then let people simply say hello to the lord's mansion, and then got on their horses.

"Aren't the adults staying for a day's rest, if it's getting dark today." Seeing that these people were leaving, the housekeeper played by Lu Bin came out to keep them.

"No, next time." The inspector made a simple gesture, then waved his whip, and led the group of people out of the city again, all the way to another road.

The rumors before the Viscounty of Winlani were nothing more than bragging and exaggeration among the nobles, but everything that the former butler explained was very interesting. If the secret organization could be captured, it would be a great achievement. And the nobles do small things in private, save money and greed for money, those are all trivial matters.

"Go forward, speed up, and reach the next city before dark!" the leading investigator shouted on horseback, and then the black-clothed cavalry passed

There was a continuous response.

"Yes, my lord. For the Empire!"

Under the twilight sky, the purple sunset glowed across the horizon. Roland Hill sat on the city wall, her legs and skirts swayed in the air, she looked at the distant team, and her heart was light.

It can be considered that these people are sent away smoothly, which saves a lot of trouble.

If they really found out that the territory is now organized and managed by the rebel army, I am afraid that they would have to take action at that time.

It won't kill them all, but returning is a big problem. Loren Hill stuck out his tongue cutely, indicating that it was too difficult to kill, and then jumped off the tall tower lightly, like a light kite falling.

Taking advantage of the present, let's step up construction and 'farm'.
