After 7 p.m., not only will the four gates of Huerbo be closed, but the Imperial College will also be closed to all outsiders. If you want to find someone, you can only report it to the night guard.

Tony handed out the legation's card, but the House guards didn't find him in the Bone Sidehouse.

This was a big deal for Tony, and he really didn't know where else he could go except for the other courtyard of the skull.

Tony told his companions to go back and report to Adjutant Vic, while he stood guard at the gate of the Academy.

Time passed little by little, and the area of the academy was very large, no weaker than an ordinary county town, and it would take an hour for the guards to go back and forth. During this period, the night guard went two more times, but still did not see the bones come back, so they said that they would not go again.

......

Pine sat in the middle of the yard, his hands tugging at his messy hair, the torment of waiting, the feeling of powerlessness that drove him mad with pain.

Just then, Kylar rushed into Pine's yard.

"Pine, let's hurry back to the legation, I have a clue. ”

Pine jerked his head up, and he heard the voice he wanted to hear most at the moment.

......

In the Legation of Xavier.

"Didn't you find the bones?"

Kaylar asked hurriedly as soon as he entered.

"That kid isn't in his courtyard, and Tony is still guarding the gate of the academy. I can only wait for dawn to go in and look for it. Is there any progress on your side?" said Vic, shaking his head.

When Pyne heard this, his heart was even more cold, and the bone was his last hope.

"It's almost certain that the Brotherhood did it. Kaylar said with a frown.

"So sure?"

Vic knows that Kylar has a feud with the Brotherhood. If someone else said that, Vic would naturally think that person had ulterior motives.

But the elves are different, and Vic naturally believes that as an elf, Kiral will not be untargeted. It's just that the Brotherhood's actions are a little too bold and too unbelievable.

"I found a place where there had been a fight, a place at the center of all the disappearances of this good thing. The shoe prints and fabrics I found there, as well as daggers, were all common styles used in the Brotherhood. And where did I find sand. ”

Khalal's face was solemn, and his tone was full of confidence.

"Sand?" Vic didn't understand what Kaylar meant.

"At the time, I didn't really have the trust of the Abrass brothers, but I heard a few things.

For the past six months, the Brotherhood has been supplying a desert merchant group. This supply is as unusually secretive, which is unreasonable, and as for what kind of goods, it is always a secret.

I started to think it was just some kind of munitions that weren't allowed to be sold. Now that I think about it, even the ordnance is not without a rumor, perhaps more serious than I thought.

I also found some blood-stained sand there, combined with what happened today. My guess is that the Brotherhood has been trading in human trafficking with that desert merchant group.

It's just that for some reason, they suddenly dared to blatantly do it in Verbo City.

As for why there was a battle there, and who exactly were on both sides of the battle, it is unknown. ”

Kaylar told Vic about his guess.

"These bastards! They robbed my Wendy, where are they going to take my Wendy?"

When Pine heard that his wife was going to be sold, he was even more anxious and frightened.

"I see. A few days ago, there were rumors that there were desert people who were bandits, and they specialized in kidnapping people in villages and towns. Today, His Majesty personally ordered the city defense army to investigate the matter thoroughly, and it seems that these rumors may be true.

I didn't expect these people to be so arrogant. I'm going to go to my friends in the city defense army to arrest people now. Vic said coldly. I got up and went to find someone.

"I'm afraid it's too late. Kaylar shook his head.

"What?"

Vic and Pyne spoke in unison.

"I don't know why they are in such a hurry to commit crimes against the wind.

But as long as they weren't stupid, they would definitely choose to send the captive women out of the city before the gates were closed.

Otherwise, as long as the relatives of those who were captured go to report the crime, the city defense army will definitely block the city gates, and in that case, none of them will be able to escape.

They chose to do it at this time, I am afraid that even if it is even if it is the family of these women, they will not find out for a while. Now these women are probably in some desert caravan stationed outside the city. It is even possible that this caravan has already departed. ”

Kaylal analyzed.

"I didn't go to work today, otherwise I wouldn't have been home before 6 o'clock. ”

It dawned on Pyne that he was even more convinced of Kylar's guess.

"What then? what should I do?" Pyne screamed in pain, clutching his hair.

Vic has no choice now, he has some friends in the city defense army, but those people's rights are not enough for them to violate the law of the country and open the city gates without permission. txt

If the people are still in the city, then everything is fine. But when you go out of the city, if you want to chase it, you can only wait until the city gate opens the next day.

But in the course of a night, how far the desert people could go, and in which direction they left, was unknown.

"Pine, we're going to do our best to save your wife. As soon as the morning dawns, I will go out of the city. Such a large caravan will definitely not go too fast, and it will definitely leave some clues. ”

Kaylar patted Pyne on the shoulder and comforted. Pine sat there as if he had lost his soul, his pupils confused.

......

On the other side of the Prince's Palace. Prince Xia Zuo had already broken the third cup.

"Haven't you found the princess yet?"

Prince Xia Zuo stood among the debris of the ground and saw that it was the young deputy commander of the city defense army, General Jeffrey. He struggled to control himself and calm down.

"Your Highness, just now the city defense army suddenly connected to more than a dozen cases of disappearance, I am afraid it is related to the disappearance of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Someone said there was a witness, his name was Pyne, and we were looking for him. He was heard to see three men in black who used the method of throwing torches into the courtyard to lure the women out of their homes and thus abduct them.

This Pine's wife is also said to have been taken captive. I have sent people to search the whole city, and I believe that Her Royal Highness will definitely be found. ”

Geoffrey was sweating profusely, and the disappearance of Her Highness the Princess had put so much pressure on him that he felt as if his head was about to leave him.

"This group of kidnappers is definitely not that simple. I know what Baikal is capable of, and now that even he is missing, I am afraid that he is already more than lucky.

That's not the only thing I'm worried about right now. When did that young man named Pyne meet those men in black?"

His Royal Highness gradually regained his composure and asked with a frown.

"I only know that he saw it before six o'clock. After being knocked unconscious by the man in black, he was woken up after six o'clock.

You mean, you're worried they're out of town?"

Jeffrey exclaimed suddenly.

"That's what worries me the most. Regardless of whether their goal was Xia Duoer or not, they must have wanted to get out of the city before the city gates were closed.

Do you think it could have been done by the desert people?" Prince Xia Zuo doubted.

"Even if they just got the news and know that His Majesty is going to check on them. Now is it better to be honest, right? To make such a big deal out of it, even if Your Majesty is tolerant, he will never tolerate them being so rampant. ”

Jeffrey shook his head, he didn't believe these desert people could be so stupid.

"What if Xia Duoer hadn't disappeared tonight, what would your city guards do?"

Prince Lunn, who was standing next to Prince Xiazuo, suddenly asked.

"It's ......," Jeffrey thought for a moment, but didn't go on. It's just that he secretly said in his heart: I'm afraid that those city defense masters who are corroded by both comfort and money should not make too much trouble because of the disappearance of more than a dozen poor women, right?

"Lunn, take my token and take the people out of town. Bring more people, go after them separately, and be sure to bring your sister back! Remember, the matter of Xia Duoer's disappearance must not be leaked, you can find a reason for yourself. ”

Prince Xia Zuo stopped Lunn from continuing his words and handed over the token on his body. If I continue to talk about it, I'm afraid it will hurt some people's face.

"Yes, father. I will definitely bring my sister back. Lunn took the token representing the status of the prince and turned away.

"Your Highness, rest assured, those who know about this matter are the true henchmen of the Commander, and it will never be revealed.

Your Royal Highness, there are a few brothers here who are good at tracking, and they are all good hands, let them go with His Highness Lunn?" Jeffrey's face flushed, but he still mustered up his courage and said.

"I naturally believe in the people who lead the lordship, and I'm tired of the general. The general will go out of the city now, and check that the caravans have left tonight. No matter which country's caravans, the birds send messages to the cities, especially the towns on the route to Tamuya City, and when they encounter these caravans, they will be directly detained and strictly investigated!

By the way, if you find the young man named Pyne, please bring him, I have something to ask him. Although Prince Xia Zuo was impatient in his heart, he did not show it on his face, but commanded in an orderly manner.

"Yes, Your Highness. ”

Jeffrey finally breathed a sigh of relief and bowed out. Although Prince Xia Zuo is not proficient in martial arts, the pressure brought by the superior still makes him a little frightened.

Jeffrey walked out of the house, and the night breeze blew, and suddenly his back and forehead were cold.

......

In a stronghold of the Brotherhood, the two Abra brothers were also drenched in cold sweat with fear at the moment.

Just now, an old henchman beside the master came to them and reprimanded them severely. Say they shouldn't make a big deal out of it at a time like this.

The two brothers were also aggrieved, and the previous master told them to try their best to satisfy these desert caravans, otherwise they would not have taken this risk.

It's just that they also wonder. It's just tying up a few slum women, and I've done this kind of thing in normal times, why is there such a big fuss today.

Not to mention the door-to-door searches by the city guards all over the streets, the city gates were closed half an hour early. There are still people who are stopped outside the city and can't enter, and it is estimated that they will be sleeping in the wild tonight.

But none of this is important to them, fortunately they completed the "delivery" ahead of schedule and left the city, otherwise the consequences would be really unimaginable.

I don't know what's going on today? The unfortunate things have caught up with this day. Several of his men were killed, and it is not known who did it.

"Damn! It's fucking unlucky, next time these crazy people come to me to do this, just let them fuck off!"

Boss Abra scolded fiercely.
