The cool summer breeze dances in the shadows of the trees, the dim lights of the streets are hazy, and the hustle and bustle of the day has long since fallen asleep, but some people are still sober and walk in the night.

The wealthy area of Montreis.

Xia Lan hid in a dark corner and silently observed the heavily guarded luxury villa opposite, he had been following here since the elegant man left the venue, due to the high risk of infiltration and the unknown internal situation, Xia Lan had to be cautious.

Guards are stationed around the villa at intervals, and from time to time there are patrols with hounds, and although their strength is mediocre, they can at least give early warning when they spot intruders, waiting for reinforcements from the strong men in the villa, just like the guards of the guards.

Since you can't break in, you have to think of another way.

And Xia Lan figured out a way to divert the tiger from the mountain and darken Chen Cang.

To put it simply, first deliberately attack the villa guards to cause a disturbance, quickly flee to a place far away from the villa when attracting the strong people in the villa, and then get rid of the pursuers, and then immediately disguise themselves as one of the pursuers and return to the villa to take the opportunity to seize the false ring of the elegant man.

However, there are a lot of loopholes in this method, not to mention whether the strong people in the villa will pursue, and how to ensure that there are strong people at the peak of the upper rank among the pursuers, if not, even if Xia Lan successfully gets rid of the pursuers and returns to the villa in disguise, under the escort of the two high-ranking peak powerhouses, the difficulty of fighting for the void ring can be imagined.

But this is already the only strategy that Xia Lan can think of in a short period of time, can she only have no choice but to give up?

After much thought, Xia Lan finally decided to take the risk.

Even if he fails, there are not many opportunities left for him, in case the other party leaves Monteres tomorrow, could he also leave with him?

It doesn't matter if he's still alone like he used to be, the problem is that he's not alone anymore.

Because he couldn't have left Adelina behind and they left in a hurry.

Just as he took out the gale from the void ring and was about to make a move, a luxurious carriage came from a distance and happened to stop at the gate of the villa.

The hand on the hilt of the sword froze.

Xia Lan's dark and cold eyes blinked slightly, what was going on?

The guards stationed at the gate looked solemn and vigilant in front of the carriage.

Knowing what to say, one of the guards nodded and turned into the villa, and after a while, the guard returned and welcomed the carriage into the villa.

Xia Lan, who disrupted her actions again because of an accident, could only give up her hand and continue to observe, and couldn't help laughing at herself in her heart, the so-called bad luck is nothing more than that!

Bang - a long time passed, suddenly.

In the distance, the wall of the windowsill on the east side of the villa collapsed, and in a trance, I saw two black shadows flying out and disappearing, and then I saw several black shadows sweeping out.

The unexpected change made Xia Lan really stunned, he quickly came back to his senses, and when he saw that all the guards outside the villa were hurrying inside, he immediately set off to sneak into the villa, and when he found a lone guard, his mind moved, and after solving the other party with a sword, he began to change into the other party's clothes, and then disguised himself as a guard and pretended to be flustered and entered the villa.

Before he could take a few glances at the luxurious hall, he was greeted by the other guards and ran to the corridor behind the hall.

After a few moments, the group stopped in a large, classically decorated room.

The room was very messy and a fragmented scene as far as the eye could see.

The most striking thing is the large hole in the east wall and the elegant man in front of him, who is dying in a pool of blood under the escort of his followers.

Assassination?

For the first time, Xia Lan's mind flashed through this word.

Xia Lan moved silently, quietly approaching the elegant man, his eyes paying attention to the guards around him.

There are four familiar followers, but there are no two powerhouses at the top of the peak, so they should have gone to chase the assassin.

There was a glint of excitement in his eyes, he didn't expect that he would encounter such a good thing that came to work at the right time!

The elegant man's chest was soaked with blood, his face was unusually pale, and he raised his hand tremblingly.

He took off the ring on his finger and thrust it hard into the hand of one of his followers, and said weakly: "Basinke, I didn't expect the parliamentarians to be so ruthless. He even did not hesitate to assassinate me, and when you returned, you must tell Sir Maleka. Traitors appeared within the royalists...... I can't do it, the family and the young master are handed over to you and Lezier, tell my children, endure a moment of humiliation, work hard and self-motivated, and only then can this hatred be washed away in the future......"

Before he could finish speaking, a cold light appeared in his sight, and he saw the eyes of Basinke, whom he had entrusted with the aftermath, his eyes wide, and then his head fell, and the phantom flashed from his hand, and the ring in his hand was gone.

"Basink!"

The sudden change caused the surrounding followers to cry out in shock, and their eyes immediately glared at a man wearing a guard costume not far away, who had no intention of entanglement with them, and fled through the big hole in the wall in the blink of an eye.

"Chase! Be sure to stop him and get that ring back! ”

The first to speak was the elegant man, and after he shouted this sentence with all his last strength, he spat out a mouthful of blood violently, and collapsed on the ground without any sound.

The four followers pursued one after another, but to their despair, the murderer who killed Basinke and forcibly seized the ring had long since disappeared!

………… Seaside manor villa.

Dewitt's carriage finally arrived here in a hurry, he looked at the villa that was still lit, stretched out his hand and slapped the door hard, and shouted, "Someone! Hurry up and open this damn door for me! ”

He called for a while, and then he saw someone in the distance carrying a lamp from far to near, and saw the butler Bernie wearing a coat and looking a little confused: "Mr. DeWitt? Is there anything going on here so late? ”

"Is Mr. Lowell back?"

DeWitt hurriedly asked.

"No, what's wrong?"

Seeing DeWitt's anxious appearance, Butler Bernie felt slightly uneasy.

"What? Mr. Lowell didn't come back?! ”

DeWitt exclaimed, "No! I have a very urgent matter to inform the other party, may I ask if I can meet with Mr. Lowell's wife? ”

"Of course, but what is it about you that makes you so flustered?"

Anyway, Bernie asked as he opened the door and welcomed DeWitt.

“…… I'm sorry, Bernie, but I can't sue you about this. ”

DeWitt was silent for a moment.

"Mr. DeWitt!"

Butler Bernie said dissatisfiedly, "Am I not even worthy of your trust?" ”

"It's not a matter of trust, it's a matter of privacy between me and Mr. Lowell, so I ask for your pardon."

DeWitt said apologetically as he walked.

"Okay."

Butler Bernie said helplessly: "However, will the urgent matter you said affect us?" ”

"Possibly."

DeWitt hesitated for a moment, deciding to tell the truth.

"Mr. DeWitt! How can you do that? Didn't you promise that you would never compromise the transaction and the customer? ”

Bernie, the butler, shouted angrily.

"Don't worry! If this matter affects you, I solemnly promise that I will bear your losses in the future! ”

DeWitt said seriously.

"I'm starting to regret my greedy decision."

Butler Bernie's face changed color a few times, and finally he sighed bitterly.

By this time, the two had arrived at the villa, and Bernie, the butler, had told him to wait in the parlor for a while, and he would now go and inform Lady Erin to come.

Although the underground warehouse has always been a forbidden place for servants in Xialan, when it comes to special matters, the butler Bernie can no longer care about this, he goes straight to the front of the warehouse and knocks on the closed door, and reports in a respectful and polite tone: "Miss Irene! Mr. DeWitt came to visit and said that he had an urgent notice about the master! ”

As soon as the words fell, the door opened suddenly, and Adelina said anxiously, "Where is Mr. DeWitt?" ”

"Meeting Room ......"

As soon as the butler Bernie finished speaking, the warehouse door in front of him suddenly closed, and there seemed to be a gust of wind blowing around him, and Ms. Erin's figure had long since disappeared.

"Mr. DeWitt! What happened to Mr. Lowell? ”

DeWitt sat on the sofa and calmed his restlessness, and was thinking about when Lady Irene would come, but he didn't want to see a flower in front of him, and his friend had already appeared in front of him.

"Lady Irene?"

DeWitt was startled, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the person in front of him, but he was still shocked in his heart, but he knew the priority of the matter, and after hearing the other party's inquiry, he glanced left and right to make sure that there were no outsiders before he said slowly: "Ms. Irene, please don't worry, Mr. Lowell is fine, it's just that something happened just now that may be extremely unfavorable to Mr. Lowell." ”

"I'm relieved that Mr. Lowell is fine."

After confirming that Xia Lan was okay, Adelina looked relieved, and then worried about DeWitt's words later, "What is the matter?" ”

"The Montreas Sheriff's Office has been investigating Blunding recently. Gooch & Claydo. The truth of Och's death, and the suspicion that the suspect is likely to be Mr. Lowell, just now the inspector of the Department of Justice has found other clues that have a close relationship with Mr. Lowell, although it is absolutely impossible for me to expose Mr. Lowell out of professional habits, but I also have the responsibility to remind Mr. Lowell that it may not be long before the Department of Justice may find him. ”

DeWitt said in one breath without the slightest concealment.

"It's just that Mr. Lowell is not here, and I don't worry about the others, so I can only tell Mr. Lowell to Mrs. Guò, because I am afraid that I will need to hide for some time and will not be able to serve him, please be careful yourself."
