Chapter 168: Rainy Kaiyue City
It was drizzling all over Patton County, and now it was winter, the weather was cold.
It was even colder on rainy days.
Thunderstorms were better, and they passed in a flash, but I was afraid that this kind of drizzle might last for a very long time.
But people's activities would not stop because of the rain. In Kaiyue City, people were still coming and going. They were just in a hurry.
Everyone avoided walking outside for a long time.
"This shitty weather."
People with bad tempers couldn't help but look up and curse.
In this ghost weather, the contemporary Gandor Knight, Babana, Gandor led the knights of the family and hurried to Kaiyue City and arrived at the Baron's mansion.
This Gandor Knight was very handsome, with a face that made women crazy, and a very tall and strong body. His eyes were very sharp, like a sword.
Although there was a look of sadness on his face at this moment, he did not change his sharp eyes and upright posture.
As rumored, Knight Gandal was a reliable and powerful knight, the backbone of the Barton family.
Ordinary things were not enough to defeat him, even if his heir was killed.
At the door of the official residence, the baron went out to greet him, with a servant holding an umbrella, and the baron's face was very heavy. Knight Barbana turned over and dismounted, saluted to the baron and said: "Baron."
The voice was as powerful as his person.
Baron Baron patted Barbana on the shoulder, then turned and entered the castle.
The two came to the hall together, and the baron invited Knight Barbana to sit down and asked the maid to prepare hot soup. But Knight Barbana didn't want to drink it, he opened his mouth and asked: "What's going on?"
The baron smiled bitterly and told Knight Barbana what happened in detail.
After listening, Barbana closed his eyes, and opened them after a while, with a gleam of light in his eyes.
"No ordinary monsters will approach Eagle Mountain. Someone drove the monsters to kill Mousse."
After saying that, Babana stood up and said, "I want to meet Mousse, and then go meet the next generation of Pompeii Knights."
The baron was a little nervous after hearing this, and hurriedly said, "Babana, you have to calm down. Luther doesn't have to kill him."
Babana nodded and said, "I know that my relationship with Thor is okay, and the Pompeii family doesn't have to kill the next generation of knights of Gandal. I just want to ask him about the situation in detail."
The baron was relieved, but sighed and said, "Mousse is a bit miserable. Do you really want to see him?"
"No matter what he has become, he is my son." Babana said firmly.
So the baron sighed and took Babana to a room in the official residence. There were three brand new coffins in the room.
There were three incomplete corpses in the coffins. Of course, it was impossible to tell who was who by the corpses. Only the accessories, swords, etc. that the knights carried could tell who was who.
"Moose, my son."
"Ed, Xington, loyal knights of my Gandal family."
Babana's face showed sadness, not only for his son, but also for the two loyal family knights.
After staying for a long time, Babana personally closed the coffins for the three people, and then asked the baron to lead the way to meet Luther, Alice and others.
In a living room on the third floor of the official residence, Babana met Luther, Alice, Howard and other knights.
Luther, Alice, Howard and others bowed to the contemporary Gandal knights, and Babana returned the bow, and both parties sat down immediately.
Although Babana was strong, in order not to cause misunderstandings, his tone was very gentle, and he only asked about the itinerary, and some of the last words of Mousse and Gandal.
After asking, the sadness on Babana's face became more intense.
Obviously Babana did not doubt Luther and others, but just wanted to hear what his son said in the end.
"I put your son down, which caused all this. I feel very guilty. If there is anything I can do, I hope to do something for you."
Alice showed a rare solemn look, and stood up and saluted to Babana.
"It is safe on Eagle Mountain. You put my son down and there is no threat to him from the monsters. He was just deliberately murdered. You don't have to feel guilty."
Babana said with great understanding.
Luther admired Babana in his heart. He was indeed an upright knight without so many twists and turns.
After saying that, Knight Babana stood up, revealing a strong murderous intent. He bowed to the baron and said, "Baron, no matter who killed my son, he will pay the price. Please help me investigate this matter with all your strength."
"Don't worry, the guards and knights in the entire territory can be dispatched for the Gandal family."
The baron quickly assured.
Then Babana bowed to Luther and his party and strode out. The Baron also walked out, but he turned back and glared at Alice again, as if to tell her to stay still.
There was no intention to lift Luther's house arrest.
Luther felt that he should continue to stay in the Baron's mansion until the storm was over.
Alas.
With the dispatch of Baron Baron, Knight Barbana, and the cooperation of other knight lord families, a vigorous investigation was launched.
But the progress was minimal.
………..
Ten days later, in the official residence of Kaiyue City.
The drizzle that had been falling for eight or nine days had stopped, and the sun was back to work, which made the wet and cold weather warm.
This was like a microcosm of this incident.
Ten days ago, Knight Barbana led almost all the forces in the entire territory to investigate the murder case, detained, and questioned many people, but the progress was minimal.
Because of his strong character and integrity, Barbana had offended countless people in the past few decades.
And the murderer was very deliberate and did things very cleanly.
Of course, there would be no results if we checked them one by one. So this matter, like this drizzle, gradually stopped.
On the second floor of the castle, in the guest room where Luther was.
This is a very nice guest room, with a bedroom, living room, bathroom, and toilet, which is much more luxurious than Luther's room in Pompeii.
In the small living room, Luther was playing chess with Knight Stone.
The baron also notified the Pompeii family of this matter as soon as possible, and Mrs. Sophie immediately sent the family knight leader, Stone, to Kaiyue City.
During this period of time, Luther spent most of his time with Knight Stone, and a small part of his time was harassed by a woman.
Luther was very bad at playing chess, so it was no surprise that he lost this game again. He stood up, looked at the bright sunshine outside the window, and then said: "I think there is a conspiracy in this matter."
"If it is a murder for revenge, there is no need to do it so perfectly. Ordinary people can't do this, even Pompeii can hardly do it." Knight Stone also nodded and agreed with Luther's point of view.
It was not revenge, and the heir of the Knight Gandal's family died.
Is this a fight for succession?
Or is there a dark hand in Patton Territory that wants to do something?
Is it even the New Party that is interfering?
The investigation is gradually coming to an end, but Luther and Knight Stone both feel that Patton Territory may gradually become less peaceful in the future.
"I hope it won't affect the development of our Pompeii."
Luther is a little worried.
