Tang Feng and his two subordinates were busy next to the corpse of the big boss, and they were very careful and meticulous in their inspection. Whether it is clothes, pants, shoes and socks, or hair, mouth, toenails, every inch and every suspicious place, he will never let go.

Due to his negligence, the Assassin approached Her Royal Highness and carried out the assassination. Thanks to the presence of the Caton Juggernaut and the Leader, the Assassins did not succeed. When he was ready to take down the assassin and torture the main messenger behind the scenes, the other party committed suicide without hesitation, depriving him of the opportunity to make amends.

Now, if there is a mistake again in the matter of examining the corpse and looking for clues, not to mention what others think of him, he himself will feel that he will no longer have the face to meet people.

When Tang Feng finally stood up and walked towards Princess Yalina and them, a long time had passed.

The round-faced aristocrat of the Charlton family had really spent his days like years in the long wait just now. Now that I see that there is finally a result, I can't wait to ask questions first.

"General Tang Feng, how is it?"

Tang Feng's position in the Aberdeen counterinsurgency army is Qianzong, and he can barely be regarded as a general. However, the counterinsurgency army had returned to Aberdeen Province, and Tang Feng had left with the princess's mission. Now he leads a mere 300 soldiers, which is a bit far from the title of general.

However, the round-faced aristocrat didn't care about this, as long as he could pop out the result he wanted from Tang Feng's mouth and help the Charlton family open this inexplicable black cauldron, even if he called the other party Lao Tzu, he was willing.

It's a pity that his plan to recognize his relatives did not succeed, and obviously the other party did not want to recognize him as a cheap son who is older than himself.

Tang Feng was angry in his heart, how could he be in the mood to pay attention to the round-faced nobleman. He took a step forward and reported.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Qiqi, the results of the inspection have been completed......"

After Tang Feng's meticulous examination, there were finally three discoveries.

The first is the cause of death. The boss committed suicide by poisoning, and the poison was hidden in one of his dentures.

The second is the weapon of assassination. Tang Feng is not a reckless person, before bringing the big boss over, he had already checked the other party inside and out, and he didn't find anything suspicious at all. Unexpectedly, the big boss actually hid the assassination tool in the muscles of his arm.

He was tall and burly, with extremely thick arms. As long as you can endure the pain, it's okay to cut the muscles and hide in a short sword. The big boss was covered with blood, and there were many old and new scars, but the traces of his hands and feet on his skin were covered up.

The hidden weapon was a round tube-shaped thing, and it was cleverly designed. You don't need to take it out, you can directly launch it from the human body. It's really hard to guard against.

Finally, it is also the origin of the round-faced aristocracy that concerns him the most. The great master had committed suicide, and of course it was impossible to derive anything useful from his mouth. But on his back, right in the heart of the place, a few words are impressively engraved:

Charlton!

"Impossible, this can't be! This is obviously a blame-setting! ”

The round-faced nobleman shouted loudly, his voice a little out of tune.

"These words were engraved by himself, of course, he carved whatever he wanted, and it didn't explain anything."

Tang Feng said coldly: "Those tattoos are not newly engraved, they look like they have been some years, and they are probably tattooed when he was still young." ”

When the round-faced nobleman heard this, he was immediately speechless.

Tang Feng's meaning was obvious, if the main envoy really wanted to frame the Charlton family, he might have anticipated today's bandit suppression operation more than ten or even decades ago, and began to lay it out. But, is this possible?

The round-faced nobleman was still arguing, and the captured bandits over there suddenly made a little commotion.

Tang Feng walked over with a gloomy face, and it didn't take long for him to turn back again.

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, 13 captured thieves committed suicide by poisoning. They are used in the same way as the leader of the tattoos, and they all have the same tattoo on their backs. ”

All of a sudden, even the round-faced nobleman was dumbfounded and speechless.

It is clear that this is a trap, a large trap that has been premeditated. With the help of a special anti-bandit operation, the entire Charlton family was trapped.

The third young master stepped forward and said with a serious face: "Mr. Anthony, if this thief is really from my Charlton family, it is impossible for him to publicly declare his identity so publicly, because this is tantamount to putting my family in danger. Her Royal Highness the Princess and Mr. Anthony are also invited to take a clear look. ”

These three young masters are the sons of the patriarch of the Charlton family, and because of their personalities, they did not take over the management of the specific affairs of the family. is idle all day long, messing around with ordinary aristocratic children, but he is a little famous in his circle.

In this anti-bandit operation, all families knew the significance behind it, and sent important people from the family to the scene. It was the round-faced aristocrat who led the team in charge of the Charlton family.

The reason why he brought the third young master was only because most of the high-level members of the mission were young people, and his contact with Anthony was quite harmonious and pleasant before. In addition, it can be regarded as an experience for him. After all, the third young master has the blood of the family in his body, and he is also smart and clever, if he can concentrate on business, it will also be beneficial to the Charlton family.

Now it seems that this unintentional move has paid off. When the round-faced aristocrat was so angry that he couldn't speak, he decisively pointed out a major suspicion in this conspiracy.

Anthony pondered for a moment, agreeing with his point.

What Sanshao said also makes sense. The assassination is not a good thing for the glorious lintel, and there is no need to publicize it so loudly, for fear that others will not know. ”

The round-faced nobleman was overjoyed when he heard this, and for the first time he felt that this nephew who was not doing his job was so cute.

He was well aware of Anthony's weight in the princess's mission, and Princess Arina was even more obedient to him. As long as he decided that this matter had nothing to do with the Charlton family, then they would surely be able to survive this unjustified disaster.

Before he could thank him gratefully, Anthony's voice changed again.

"But how do you explain the tattoos on these people?"

The round-faced aristocrat was like being drenched in a bucket of cold water, and he was speechless again.

How do you explain this?

How do I know how to explain! I can control the heavens and the earth and can still care about others scribbling on me?!

The third young master also smiled helplessly, we didn't do this, how can we explain it?

But no matter how difficult it is to explain, we have to find a way to explain it, who let the finger point now at the Charlton family, who do people look for if they don't look for them?

"Perhaps, some special technique was used to get it......"

This should be the most reliable guess, but it is easy to offend people when you say it.

Didn't you see that Tang Feng, who was in charge of inspecting the corpse, had an ugly face?

"Let's collect our troops and go back to the city first! This matter is full of suspicions, and there are many difficult places to explain, and it is difficult to sort out for a while, and I will discuss it in detail when I go back. ”

Anthony pondered for a moment, but it seemed that he did not understand the point, and immediately put the matter aside for the time being, and ordered the troops to be withdrawn.

"Take all these bandits back and imprison them in our camp first. There may also be other Assassin companions among them, and they must be questioned one by one. When everything is settled, these people will be handed over to the Grand Duke's Palace. Do you have any objections to this disposition? ”

Anthony asked the nobles for advice with a gentle face, but all the nobles hurriedly shook their heads and waved their hands as if they were being burned by coals, and said in unison, "No opinion."

Just kidding, who dares to have an opinion at this time?

If there was no assassination of the case, they would have recommended that the bandits be handed over to the Grand Duke of Smowa.

This proposal makes sense.

In any case, this is the province of Hanover, and no matter how strong the legation army is, it is still a guest after all. It's like helping the owner clean up the house, whether the cleaned things are useful or not, can only be decided by the owner what to do with them. There is no reason for guests to put their own things in their bags.

As for now? If anyone dares to come forward at this time, as long as there is any slight situation in the assassination incident in the future, it will be difficult for him to get out of the relationship.

Look at the current situation of the Charlton family, it is a dumb person who eats coptis, and there is nowhere to redress if there is suffering. How shrewd the aristocratic lords are, how could they stupidly rush in and be the hard brothers and sisters with the Charlton family.

Since everyone had no objections, Tang Feng immediately assigned people to prepare relevant matters.

The troops of the mission did not have much to prepare, and they could just leave. But the number of captured bandits was more than a thousand, several times more than the soldiers of the mission. If you don't handle it properly, there will be big problems.

The Charlton family was also temporarily relieved. Although he failed to clear the suspicion of assassinating Princess Arlina, he finally did not characterize the matter on the spot. When we get back to the city, we can talk slowly. Don't say that the Charlton family didn't do it in the first place, even if it was really them, in the current situation, there may not be no room for loopback.

Didn't you hear Anthony's boy say that he wanted to go back and "discuss it in detail"?

Of course, some blood and flesh are indispensable.

That's politics.

After being busy for a while, the warriors slowly walked back with the captives tied in a long line.

The nobles followed the legation with their men, as they had come.

The only difference is that everyone's face is not very good-looking at this time.

When they came, the nobles were full of confidence and felt that the result was already doomed, so they came to watch the show.

Who would have thought that the "bandits" who seemed to have a great advantage were so vulnerable in front of their opponents. Not to mention the big defeats and losses, not to mention the heavy losses, and even the one who pulls a cushion can't do it.

At the same time, they couldn't help but curse in their hearts the guy who ordered the assassination.

It doesn't matter if you want to assassinate the princess, it doesn't matter if you blame the Charlton family, but can you not choose this point in time. Now not only has the operation failed, but it has also affected us. If you want to get back to the captured family private soldiers, it seems impossible in a short time.

You must know that for this "joint army", each family has made a bloody investment. At that time, I was afraid that the troops were not strong enough and the odds of victory were not safe enough, so I tried to stuff people into the "bandits' den" as much as possible.

Now the part of the aristocracy that the Cypriots are most active in stuffing is so regretful that their bowels are green.

Losing so many samurai and even professionals at once, not to mention protecting the safety of the family's business, caravans, and mines, even the strength to guard the home in the base camp is not enough.

Moreover, there is a huge gap in the armed forces of each family, and everyone is short of people, and if you want to recruit people, I am afraid that you may not be able to recruit them all at once.

The nobles and lords all had a bitter face, cursing in their hearts, and at the same time they were already thinking about the battle for talent after they returned.
