I imagined the shape of the murderer's weapon, and suddenly I had a thrill in my mind: didn't this match the thin, sharp sword that Ellis used?

I knew that Ellis was a good player, one of the best in the city. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info She should have assassinated a lot of people when she was doing things for Archimedes before, could it be that she did it this time? Could it be that Archimedes broke the original agreement and continued to ask her to do things for herself?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong: if the main messenger of this wave of murders was really Archimedes, then did Rand know about it? If he did not know, then what was Archimedes' purpose? If he knows, then what is the purpose of the two of them? Does the person who died at the hands of the devil have anything to do with them......

My head was going to explode.

I don't have to worry about that, because I'm going to get out of here in less than a week. Everything that happened in Dordrory will no longer have anything to do with me, even the coronation of the rand ten days later.

But what if all this is a conspiracy of Archimedes? What about Rand?

I grabbed a handful of my hair and calmed myself down quickly.

Now the plan is to catch the mastermind as soon as possible. Even if I can't catch it all, I'll have to keep Rand on guard.

I asked Gray to find out that Ellis was off duty today and should be staying in his own mansion. But I have never had any contact with the General's Mansion, and now I am "notorious", so I must not visit it rashly. How can I meet her?

I thought about it, and in the current situation, it seemed reasonable that only Aonira would come to visit. Her father was a civil minister, and he had little real power, so he would not be suspected of collusion. Onila herself has a wide range of contacts in the academy, is a student leader, and has more contact with Ellis than others. It's not abrupt for a girl to visit another girl.

Aonila was still recuperating at home at this time.

It wasn't until we met that I remembered that it seemed like I had seen her for the first time since I had returned from Evenerg.

Onila looked very good, and it didn't seem that she had suffered any major injuries in Evenerg. I looked at her and felt a little guilty that I was so useless that I had left her alone in the demon's colony.

Aurilla was generous, and didn't say anything, but there seemed to be a little more friendship in my eyes.

I asked her when she was back in Doddero, and she told me it was around four o'clock in the afternoon. It seems that it was me and Rand who were one step ahead of each other.

I said my request, and Onella's face seemed a little embarrassed.

She said hesitantly: "Of course it's okay for Senior Sister Joellis to come out, I'm just worried about whether she is willing?" You know, she's a very cold person......"

"Even if it we're going to have to try." I took a deep breath and felt the air get a little cold again, and my hands began to go numb again.

Aonilla noticed that my body was trembling slightly, and was slightly stunned, and then asked in a low voice, "Rosa, ...... Why do you have to meet Ellis? ”

I looked at Onilla and knew she was a trusted companion, so I told her about it.

Aurilla listened to my words and fell into deep thought, and then said, "You mean, Ellis-senpai probably knows something about the murders in the city, right?" ”

I nodded.

"Alright, leave this matter to me, and I will definitely bring her to you before noon."

In a hidden café around the corner, Ellis sat across from me, nonchalantly stirring the coffee in his cup with a spoon. Today, instead of wearing the armor she usually wears, she wears a long skirt. A piece of black hair was scattered behind his back, but his face was no different from usual, and there was no expression on it.

"Tell me, find me something."

I looked at her face and saw that she looked quite at ease, so I asked, "What are the murders in the city...... Did you kill people? ”

Hearing my words, Ellis was obviously stunned, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and then said, "You asked directly. ”

"So, is it you?" My tone became a little urgent.

Ellis took a deep breath and said slowly, "Rosa, I know you're suspicious of Archimedes, but I really don't know about it. You see, there are many more under him besides me...... A person who is in charge of various matters. ”

I looked at her and said, "That'...... Do you think it has anything to do with him? ”

"How about a relationship? What if it doesn't matter? It's none of my business...... I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore. Ellis's eyes dodged when she said this, and I knew that she didn't want to reminisce about those unbearable years.

"Rosa, remember the first time we met?"

“…… Remember. ”

"Over the years, I can't remember how much I've done for him. That morning, I received a new assignment from Archimedes, who asked me to assassinate His Highness Rand. Oh, but the assassination of the prince is a major event of rebellion, and for the first time in my life, I am timid. So I ran away from home that day, only to run into you. Maybe it was because I was so nervous at the time, so I behaved like that, and then ......."

"What happened?"

Ellis took a deep breath and replied, "Later...... They found me anyway. But before I could make a move against His Highness, Archimedes changed his mind again. Maybe it was your performance in those days that caught his attention. He told me to kill you, and it turned out to be ...... You know that too. I looked at her face and noticed that the expression on her face was starting to calm down again. She continued: "However, after such a show, Archimedes began to distrust me, in fact, who did he trust? He doesn't need a passive assassin like me anymore. It would be in his best interest for him to gain more power in the court, and he could easily use my dealings with my father and my shady past as an assassin to threaten me and sway my position. So you see, as soon as the demonic invasion was over, I had already been promoted two levels in a row. ”

I covered my hot cup with my hand to warm myself up, and I chuckled and said, "Then why are you telling me ......this now?"

"I'm telling you to warn you not to pursue it any further!" Ellis's voice suddenly became a little agitated. However, she soon realized her gaffe, lowered her head and whispered, "Archimedes' ability and power are far more powerful than you see. ”

I knew she was worried about me, but as soon as I thought about Rand having to face all this pressure alone in the future, I felt like I wanted to do something for him at the end.

"Thank you, but there are things in this world that I must accomplish......" I whispered, and then asked, "Do you know what the weapons used by the other assassins were like?" ”

Ellis gave me a meaningful look and said, "It doesn't matter what weapon you use, but you can kill in one hit during an assassination." Mostly a thin short sword. Just like the one I stabbed you. ”

That's exactly what I thought. I know that there is still something special about that kind of sword shape, and most people can't get this style.

I suddenly thought of another question: "By the way, if you all use that kind of sword in assassination, why did Archimedes ask me to assassinate...... When I went to deal with Aubrey, the sword I was given was not the same shape? ”

Ellis shook his head: "This ...... I don't know. ”
