Chapter 1041 The Little Princess Is Attacked

Ren took a stack of papers from a drawer under the table, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of me.

I picked up one of them and read the neat words on it carefully with the help of fluorescence: On May 2, 4114 of the Japanese Chronicle, I spent 500 gold coins to make a pure gold rapier and gave it to the captain of the Elf Palace Guard.

At the back of the account, Wren noted the reasons for the gifts and the information gained as a result.

After looking at each one carefully, I had an estimate in my mind. The total number of these gold coins was more than 20,000, but almost every gold coin had its own value.

I pushed the stack of paper back to Ren and said, "I will reimburse you for all the money tomorrow morning. Apart from that, what else do you need?"

Ren raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Get me a few more boxes of good wine, the same grade as before."

"There's no problem with that, but" I leaned on the back of the sofa and crossed my arms and said, "Aren't you afraid that drinking too much wine will slow down your reaction speed?"

Ren chuckled, "I know my own rules, so I won't bother you."

The days that followed were uneventful. I reimbursed Ren with gold coins, bought wine, brushed monsters with Phoenix and the others, competed with Emily, occasionally went to Elder Mai Sonoda's house to cause trouble, and allowed Princess Analetta to come to my house for dinner.

This period of time was simply the perfect life I dreamed of, quiet, ordinary, and without any disturbances.

However, didn't a certain celebrity once say this: Life is always full of all kinds of surprises.

But at this moment, I want to change this sentence slightly: life is always full of all kinds of surprises, and they may also be frightening.

The person who was frightened was not me, nor my family, but my family friend, the little princess of Moonlight City - Analetta.

Here's the thing.

The little princess who was playing in the Elf Forest was suddenly attacked and almost died. Fortunately, her original strength was not weak, and she had a strong desire to survive. She just broke through the siege and ran to my house with her only strength. .

Fortunately, Mr. Taylor was not drunk that day and saved Princess Analetta, finally saving her life.

When we got home, we saw Princess Analita, who was so angry that she was shaking all over, holding her sleeping sister in tears.

I asked her what was going on. Princess Analita only knew that her sister must have been attacked. As for the murderer who attacked the little princess and the origin of the murderer, Princess Analita knew nothing about it.

She tried to rush out to find the murderer several times, but we stopped her every time. After being stopped, she struggled like a madman and bit me. Well, the bite was on the back of her hand, with a row of small teeth marks. Son, there were a lot of blood seeping out from the tooth marks. It hurt so much that I hissed and sucked in the cold air.

But I don’t mean to blame her at all. I can understand her mood. After all, although Princess Analetta usually seems careless and unreliable, likes to grab meat, and likes to show off her temper, she is Analita after all. One of Princess Ta's only relatives.

When faced with the injury of a close relative, it is understandable to be impulsive and irrational.

But, can we not bite people? You know, the pain of being bitten is several times greater than the pain of being injured by a sharp object!

Cagalli jammed Princess Analita's arms with her arms, making her unable to move. I comforted and preached to Princess Analita: "I say, Princess, can you stop causing trouble?" I know that you love your sister deeply and are eager to avenge her, but have you ever thought about it, even if we let you out, where will you find the murderer? When there are no clues at all, aren't you trying to catch someone blind? "

"Then what do you think I should do?" Princess Analita's beautiful eyes widened and she looked a little scary.

I took a long breath: "The top priority is not to seek revenge. We should wait for Princess Analetta to wake up and ask her what happened. Do you remember how many people attacked her and what their figures were like? , what kind of weapons are used, etc., etc. Only after clarifying these issues can we formulate policies and carry out the next plan step by step."

Princess Analita gasped after listening to my words. After a few seconds of silence, her expression became depressed and her body became weak. Cagalli put her on the sofa, and Princess Analita sat slumped like this. On the sofa, motionless, like a deflated doll.

I sighed, pushed aside the guests in Princess Analita's room, and saw the little princess lying on the bed with a pale face. Although the wounds all over her body had been healed by Taylor, she had never been alive due to blood loss and mental trauma. wake up.

Taylor sat on the chair next to the bed, leaning on the back of the chair, with a calm expression, but there was a lingering anger in his old eyes.

The old man seemed a little angry this time, but fortunately, he was extremely calm, and there was no abnormality in his behavior or words or emotions.

I walked to the little princess's bed, looked at her little face as pale as paper, her bloodless thin lips, her slightly trembling but never opened eyes, and felt her steady but very weak breathing, and I breathed heavily. He breathed: "Old man, how is she?"

Taylor's eyes moved, his old body slowly sat up, and he sighed deeply: "There are eleven sharp blade wounds all over the body, and there are two penetrating wounds under the ribs. If it is delayed for another ten minutes, it will be difficult to tell."

I sat next to the little princess's bed and gently touched her forehead with the back of my hand. The cold touch came instantly. I couldn't help but frown again: "Old man, can you tell what kind of weapon was used for those scars?" Injured?"

Taylor shook his head: "I can only tell that the injury was caused by a sharp weapon. As for whether it was a knife or a sword, I can't tell."

"That's it" I sighed.

After being silent in the room with Taylor for a long time, he suddenly raised his head and said with a serious expression: "Bastard, she is Beatrice's little granddaughter."

Beatrice is the former city lord of Moonlight City and the grandmother of the Elf Queen. Like the Elf Clan Leader, she is the woman that Taylor can never forget, and she is also the most important woman to Taylor.

Knowing the relationship between this, I naturally understood the meaning of Taylor's words. I nodded solemnly at him and said seriously: "I understand, old man, I will investigate this matter thoroughly. Those I will make all the murderers who hurt Princess Analetta receive the punishment they deserve."

After hearing this, Taylor nodded slightly, put his hands on his legs, and slowly stood up from the chair. I wanted to help him, but he refused.

Then, with heavy steps, he slowly walked out of the room.

I stared at his back, suddenly feeling desolate.
