Chapter 31: Crawford the Maniac

The night is dark and the wind is high, the night sky today is not clear, there is not a single star in the sky, and even the crescent moon is obscured by heavy dark clouds, and only a general outline can be seen.

On the uneven roof of the imperial capital, a black shadow suddenly flashed at this time, and the black shadow was extremely fast, like a gale.

With the help of the shadow magic "Flash", Dylan made his way down the roof in the night, and his destination was the mansion of Viscount Crawford Hansen.

Because the imperial capital has a curfew at night, Dylan's action this time is actually very dangerous, on the ground, there are patrol guards passing by from time to time, and if you are not careful, you may be discovered.

Luckily, Dylan is a shadow mage, and he can use the power of shadow magic to hide himself well. Moreover, Dylan's mental power is extremely strong, and the recovery speed of his magic power is also extremely fast, so using the "flash" to advance, Dylan will hardly make any sound, reducing the possibility of being discovered.

After running on the rooftops of the imperial capital for a long time, Dylan finally came to a very luxurious castle.

Seeing that a study in the northwest corner of the castle was still lit at this time, Dylan immediately leaned against the protruding beam circle of the wall and slowly approached the window, then squatted down and took out a white scroll from his arms.

This scroll is not simple, it is called "Radio Scroll", it is a high-grade wind magic scroll, and the price is expensive, of course, for the wealthy Harvey family, it is naturally a drop in the bucket at all.

The function of this "radio scroll" is simple, that is, it collects sounds collected in the vicinity into the scroll.

Dylan is now trying to use the radio scroll to collect evidence that Crawford Hansen framed the Harvey family.

Dylan pressed his ear against the wall, using his keen senses to hear what was going on, but found that he couldn't hear anything at all. Thinking that this Crawford was cautious, he must have arranged a soundproof circle around the house.

Dylan didn't give up, and when he saw a window in a corridor not far away, he jumped to the window, and then gently opened the window and entered the corridor at once.

He had just jumped out of the window when he heard someone around the corner walking towards him, and immediately whispered the incantation "disappear", and then disappeared in an instant.

Not long after, a mustache that looked like a butler appeared around the corner, and I saw him walking in a hurry, hurrying in the direction of the study.

Dylan used the vanishing magic to hold his breath and follow closely behind the butler, and soon entered the study.

I saw that the study was brightly lit, and a middle-aged man was sitting at a finely carved desk, as if he was looking through some records.

After the butler entered the study, he did not dare to speak at all, but stood quietly aside, waiting for his master's speech.

After a long time, the middle-aged man put down the notebook in his hand, looked at the housekeeper coldly and said, "What happened to the things you asked you to do?"

The butler tugged on his trouser leg tightly with his right hand, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Master, the matter has not been done. ”

I only heard the sound of "pop", and a beautiful glass teacup smashed at the butler's feet, shattered, and the hot tea inside also splashed on the butler's trouser leg, but the butler did not dare to move half a step.

"What the hell is going on? I can't do such a thing, what's the use of me raising you shit?" Crawford was already roaring at this point, and his face became hideous.

Dylan could feel that Crawford was not only a greedy and selfish fellow, but also an angry maniac. He opened the radio scroll and began to record the conversation between the master and servant in the study.

The butler swallowed without a trace: "Originally, the matter was about to be done, but Peter Harvey arrived soon and stopped the guards from leaving. ”

"Are the guards all pigs? There was a murder in the tavern, and it is entirely suspected that there was a problem with the drink, so that even if Peter Harvey is not convinced, he must cooperate with the investigation of the Inquisition!

The butler winced and said, "But, but Peter Harvey said that the current drinks in their tavern are all provided by Quincy Winery, and if there is a problem with the wine, then you have to ask the people of the Quincy family to come forward and explain." When the guard heard this, he didn't dare to continue to arrest people, so he had to give up his plan. ”

"What?, the Quincy family?" Crawford looked surprised, "didn't you say that the wine in that tavern was provided by a small winery?

The butler hesitated and said, "Originally, their wine supplier did not have any identity, but no one expected that they would change the supplier last week and become Quincy Winery, so, so..."

With a "bang", Crawford slapped his palm on the desk, and the whole person stood up with a rubb: "What a bunch of rubbish! I haven't even investigated such important information, what use do I want from you! Now that Peter Harvey old fox is alert, it will be extremely difficult for us to use the means in secret!"

Originally, Crawford wanted to take this opportunity to ruin Peter Harvey's reputation in the imperial capital, and then slowly devour his estate. But he didn't expect that the thing didn't work out, but instead made a mess of surprise, how could this not make him angry?

Crawford gasped for breath and finally sat back down.

Seeing that the evidence he wanted was in hand, Dylan was about to roll up the reel and prepare to leave.

But at this time, Crawford, who had gradually calmed down, opened his mouth and asked, "What does the Imperial military say? Is the fifty soldiers we have provided enough?"

The butler's face was even more ugly than dead at this time, and his voice was almost inaudible: "Also, it's not enough, the imperial military said, more, at least a hundred more soldiers will be sent." ”

There was a "bang", and all the books on the desk were thrown out.

"I want a hundred? What are they? When I am a machine that produces warriors? I only have two hundred mercenaries in total, and now I am asking me for one hundred and fifty, what are the fifty mercenaries left for me? Take them all!"

In Dylan's opinion, Crawford was completely insane at this time, the facial features on his face had been distorted, and his voice had become hysterical.

"What's wrong with Warcraft Mountain, what does it have to do with me?

Seeing that Crawford was still scolding, Dylan couldn't listen anymore, and immediately turned around and left the study, and then jumped out of the window.

But what happened to the Monster Mountains, and why did the Imperial Army need to recruit so many men? Dylan was a little puzzled.
