Sir Scott probably didn't want rumors of a soldier stabbing an apprentice blacksmith to death in the Imperial Tavern one day.

So, he hid in the shadows and didn't want people to call him by his name.

After all, when a nobleman is the object of ridicule after a commoner's meal, his honor is as worthless as shit.

"Sir, you are facing routine questioning by the sheriff. Pedi said in a formulaic tone, "If you don't want to add another crime, you'd better pay attention to your attitude." As he spoke, he walked into the corner, and the other man's face gradually became clear.

It was a very familiar face of a middle-aged man, and Pedi bet he must have seen him on some occasion.

"I'm sorry, sheriff... Mr. Scott apparently recognized Pedi as well, and he glanced at the family crest on Pedy's chest, "If the apprentice you're talking about, yes, I killed him, because he insulted a guard, I just wanted to teach him a lesson, who knew he wanted to draw a sword, you should know what the consequences of drawing a sword in front of the guards, right?"

"You're lying!" the woman holding the child's corpse suddenly roared, her voice as ugly and harsh as the crying of ghosts in an abandoned manor, "He wanted to buy a dagger that Kang Kang Bei picked up, but Kang Kang Bei didn't want to, so he grabbed it, and finally... He killed him, and it all happened so suddenly, and I was... At that time..."

"What did you see with your own eyes?" asked the woman, with a hint of interest in her eyes.

"Of course, I happened to deliver lunch to Xiaokangbei, and I was at the door. ”

Hearing this, Pedi's eyes flashed, and he turned to look at Sergeant Owa, who immediately nodded.

"What about the dagger?" asked Pedi.

A guard next to him immediately trotted closer, took out a square purple wood box from the leather bag he was carrying, and handed it to Pei Di, a unique fragrance of purple wood made Pei Di's spirit refreshed.

When I opened the lid of the wooden box, I was greeted by a pretty good dagger.

Gray frowned and looked at the woman, "This is not the dagger that a blacksmith apprentice should have, ma'am. ”

"This is what my son picked up. ”

"Picked up?"

"The one I picked up was in the garbage heap not far from our house. The woman replied in the affirmative.

"This is what I lost, and when I found it in the apprentice's hands, I wanted to come back, but who knew he wouldn't give it, and he asked me to pay for it, and I agreed, but the damned guy asked for fifty gold coins. Scott hurriedly explained, "Fifty gold coins, Mr. Sheriff, is a robbery." ”

"So you killed him?" asked Pedy, "why didn't you just say that?"

"I didn't want to kill him, sir, it was he who drew the sword first. Scott shook his head, "I think it's the same thing, that apprentice is hard to listen to, and if it were you, I wouldn't help but want to teach him a lesson." ”

"You're robbing me of Kangbei's things, of course he has to resist. The woman yelled.

"To draw a sword against a nobleman is to seek death. ”

"You..."

"Alright!" said Pedi interrupted the woman, he didn't want to have another case of insulting the nobles, he would be annoyed to death. He looked at Scott, "You said this dagger was yours?"

"Of course!" Scott said with a flash in his eyes and then affirmation.

Pei Di stared at the dagger, the clear lines of the blade showed that it was extraordinary, and the magic circle outlined in the middle proved its due value.

Pei Di stretched out his right hand glowing with holy power and said as if talking to himself, "If I touch this circle like this, I don't know what will happen?"

Owa was stunned: "Sir, this will activate it." ”

"Mr. Sheriff?" Scott wanted to say something, "you..."

However, Peidi ignored him, and when his right hand full of holy power grasped the handle of the dagger, the magic circle on the dagger was suddenly activated, and the originally shiny blade became black in the blink of an eye, and a disgusting stench spread through the air.

"Elemental poison?" Owa exclaimed.

Pedi stared at Scott, "A good dagger, maybe it's worth fifty gold coins." ”

"Uh... Maybe. Scott was also a little surprised.

"You just said you had the dagger yours?" Gray asked repeatedly.

"Yes," Scott nodded again, "from a friend." ”

Pedi gave the other a serious look, and then said, "A generous and generous friend. ”

"Yes. Jazz chimed in.

Pedi smiled and nodded, then suddenly asked, "How much are you going to compensate that poor mother?"

"What? oh, twenty gold coins, that's enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life. Scott replied.

Pei Di smiled faintly, "Seventy gold coins, plus the money for this dagger." ”

"This—" Sir was stunned, subconsciously wanting to refuse, but he looked at the guards around him and Pedy's unquestioning eyes, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "Okay! ”

"I don't want money, I'll let him get the punishment he deserves. The woman yelled again.

"Owa . Pei Di looked at his lieutenant next to him, he was a little helpless, how could this woman not understand that two years of imprisonment was nothing to the knight in front of her, and seventy gold coins were enough for her to live a richer life than the average small nobleman in the countryside.

Owa got permission from the chief and walked towards the woman.

"What do you want to do? If you dare to show favoritism, I will go to the guard and accuse you. The woman saw Owa enter, and the ghostly scream of the moment ago rang out again.

"Shut up!" Sergeant Owa spat out two words from between his teeth, a flash of anger in his eyes.

The woman instantly felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, goosebumps broke out all over her body, a burst of urine came from her lower body, and her mouth, which was as thin as a piece of paper, was subconsciously closed.

Pedi was pleased with Owa's efficiency, albeit in a harsh manner.

"The dagger can be returned to you. In the surprised expression of the guard next to him, Pedi agreed to Scott's terms, "However, you must prepare seventy gold coins first, and before that, this dagger will be handed over to our security office." ”

"No, the dagger must be given to me first. Scott said subconsciously.

"Oh, really?"

"Bang!"

The fist with the Holy Power suddenly hit Scott's lower abdomen, and Pedy shot quickly, and no one would have thought that he would suddenly strike, so basically no one reacted, including Sir Scott himself.

"Wow," Sir Scott received a heavy blow to his abdomen, and the vibration of his stomach and stomach made him feel nauseous, and he reflexively bent over and vomited a pool of sour water.

"I'm sorry, sir, I'll have the final say here for now, but I'll take your opinion into account. Pedi stared at Scott coldly, "Do you still insist on taking the dagger?"

The officers reacted and began to disperse the onlookers at the blacksmith shop.

The woman followed Ova to the back of the blacksmith's shop, and the blacksmith owner led the way in front of him tremblingly.

Sir Scott forced himself to vomit, he stood straight, his face was full of anger, his eyes were cold, and his right hand was already on the hilt of his sword.

"You want to draw your sword?" Pedi scoffed.

Scott's pain in his abdomen and discomfort in his stomach made him angry and angry, and Pedy's playful smile made him feel like he was scratching inside.

But in the end, Sir forced himself to calm down, and he let go of his right hand on the hilt of his sword, and barely squeezed out an ugly smile: "You're right, you have the final say here, Mr. Sheriff." ”
