"Harlan, I heard you're in trouble?"

Matthew yawned and stepped out of the carriage, and flickered when he saw his subordinate with a solemn face.

"My lord, we are indeed in trouble in our work, you can see for yourself." Harlan sighed and pointed across the street to the main entrance to Magnison's villa.

Matthew followed his instructions, and saw more than a dozen wounded guards standing in front of the gate of the villa, they formed a line of human walls to block anyone's passage, but what interested him the most was that the gate behind the guards was gone, and even the potholed loess behind them could be faintly seen.

He raised an eyebrow and walked slowly forward, "Harlan, tell me more about what's going on here." ”

"My lord, not long ago, the security guards in charge of patrolling this area received a report that Master Magnison's villa seemed to have been attacked by terrorists, but when our people arrived at the villa, they saw these guards blocking the entrance to the villa and strictly ordered our people not to enter." Harlan looked at the crowd in front of the villa and said, "According to them, the villa was attacked by lawless people who coveted the latest research results of Master Magnison, although they successfully repelled the enemy with their stubborn resistance, but many of Master Magnison's research materials in the villa were scattered and lost, in order to avoid the accidental leakage of those materials, no one was allowed to enter the villa until they had collected and sorted them out." My lord. You know that in our capacity we would not dare to offend Master Magnison. That's why I urgently notify you to come and deal with it. ”

Mattheut took a closer look at the guards in the human wall, and gradually moved his gaze to the doorposts at both ends of the villa gate, and he began to retract his lazy face, and his expression became more and more solemn.

"Harlan, have you looked into any eyewitnesses who saw the attack on the villa?"

"My lord, my subordinates have already interrogated the witnesses around me." Harun took out the text he was holding under his armpit and flipped it open, "Combined with the testimonies of many of the attackers, they all noticed this change when there was a sudden violent movement in the villa, but when they heard the noise, they rushed over. The gate of the villa has disappeared, and the courtyard lawn in front of the gate is full of grass clippings and loess as if it has been attacked by a hurricane, and it didn't take long for them to hear the sound of noise and fighting again from the villa, but it soon quieted down, and the onlookers did not dare to enter the villa to investigate, so they hurriedly sent someone to notify the patrol guards, but before the patrol guards arrived, a team of guards poured out of the villa to block the gate, but. Witnesses claimed to have seen Master Magnison's daughter, Clara, quietly leave the back door in a carriage. ”

Matthew listened. His face was pensive, and his eyebrows were wrinkled unconsciously.

"Strange, really, really weird."

"My lord, what are you wondering about?" Harlan wondered.

"Harun, I think you should know that something terrible has happened in the abandoned warehouse and the harbor in Baifan District, right?" Matthew replied in response.

"Yes." Harun's expression instantly solemnized and said, "My subordinates heard that the Holy Radiance Cathedral dispatched all the Templars, and declared that it was to exterminate heretics!" None of our men dared to act rashly for fear of getting into trouble, as the vision over the harbor alone illustrates. ”

"Huh...... I suspect that these two events were most likely related to the attack on Master Magnison's villa. Matthew stroked his mustache and looked at the villa across from him thoughtfully.

"My lord, if that's the case, I'm afraid this matter will be a big deal." Harlan said in a deep voice.

"Harlan, let our men get out." Matthew turned.

"What? My lord?! Don't we care about it anymore? In case ......," Harlan said in amazement.

"Since Master Magnison's men blocked the door and didn't let us in, it means that they don't want us to get involved in this matter, in that case, why should we bother ourselves, I have my own measure on the council's side." Matthew snorted coldly.

"Is this a dereliction of duty?" People in officialdom rarely have fools, Harlan is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart, and very good at observing words and understanding the meaning of his superiors, but he is still a little younger after all, and there is still a young man's impulsive blood and sense of responsibility and justice, although the reality has long smoothed his edges and corners, but sometimes it will always be unconsciously revealed.

"Dereliction of duty? If you judge by your standards, hasn't Lao Tzu been derelict in his duties all these years? But isn't Lao Tzu still firmly in the position of sheriff? Matthew scoffed.

My lord - that's because you have a good wife and a good father-in-law, but you don't have subordinates!

Harlan sighed inwardly, speechless.

As he boarded the carriage, Matthewt glanced back at the conspicuous hole in the villa in the distance, and no one knew how heavy his heart was under the surface of frivolity.

Damn it! Have the recent law powerhouses eaten enough to hold on? They all came to Port Louis to mess around?! Don't you think Lao Tzu has enough trouble? It seems that I really have to go to find my old father-in-law today, otherwise I won't be able to stand it!

Luckily, these guys didn't find Lao Tzu! Otherwise, you can't live a stable and comfortable life!

Matthewt shook his head and left.

……

Clara lived up to her reputation in Port Louis, and when she left the villa with her escort and began to collect the list of materials given to her by the old man, a wagon loaded with all the materials arrived at the villa before evening fell.

"Donasius, I met my mother in the afternoon, informed her of what had happened at the villa, and accompanied her to the Cathedral of the Divine Radiance, but we did not see Bishop Christopher, not even the Chief Templar who guarded the church." Clara sat on the sofa in the living room, holding a cup of steaming hot tea in her hands, and said worriedly, "Mother has been staying in the Cathedral of the Holy Radiance, waiting for news from Bishop Christopher. ”

"Maybe it may have something to do with today's abandoned warehouses in Baifan District and the vision over the harbor." Donner sat down and said, "I deliberately inquired about something after you left, and I heard that a large number of Templars appeared in the White Sails District during the day, and an extremely fierce and brutal battle broke out, which is said to be related to the extermination of heretics. ”

"Exterminate heresy?" Clara's eyes widened and said: "By the way, I suddenly remembered something, when I was searching for materials in the afternoon, I overheard that something big seemed to have happened in the Fountain Square in the Deer District, it seems that many civilians were killed and injured, is there anything related to this?" ”

"I don't know, but this could be an important clue, miss, and you should send someone to inform Madame right now, that there might be Bishop Christopher and the Templar Master in the White Sails District or in the Deer District." Donaxiu judged calmly.

"Do you need me to go in person?" Clara said.

"That's for the best, it's not safe here, young lady, you shouldn't come back at all, but stay with Madame." Donner Monk.

"But...... I'm not at ease to leave you here alone. Clara hung her head.

"I'm even more worried if Miss stays here!!" Donnasiu said with a cold face. "Don't worry, I'll be fine, if they want to kill me, they will kill me when they break into the villa, instead of waiting until now, since the materials have been delivered, I will be responsible for everything here."

Donald Hugh...... Is it really okay? Clara looked up at him worriedly.

"Someone! Escort the young lady to the Cathedral of the Holy Grace. At this time, Donnasius stood up directly and walked towards the guard outside the living room.

"Donnasei, take care of yourself, don't be fine!" Clara bit her lip and looked at him reluctantly.

"I see, thank you for your concern, Miss."

Donasius bowed respectfully, and watched Clara leave the living room with the escort company.

After standing for a long time, a touch of bitterness suddenly appeared on Donasiu's cold face, of course he could see Miss Clara's feelings for him, why had Miss Clara not married all these years? With her appearance and status, there is no shortage of young and handsome nobles in the upper class, all because Miss Clara has always been expecting his response, but he has never been able to face her feelings.

This has nothing to do with class status, with his strength as a top powerhouse, it is definitely not difficult for him to marry Miss Clara, but ...... Feelings can't be forced, like is like, dislike is not like, if he insists on marrying Miss Clara, maybe it will be a kind of happiness for her, but no one has considered his feelings?

Everyone has the right to pursue his own happiness, and he also has his own beloved.

Why has he been faithfully by Master Magnison's side all these years? The reason is simple, because once when he asked Master Magnison to save his beloved, he reached an agreement, which was like a deed of sale, firmly binding his freedom, fortunately, the time limit of the deed of sale was only ten years, and after ten years, he would leave Port Louis to seek his own happiness.

It's just that this secret is only known to him and Master Magnison.

In life, many people can't escape a love word.

The top peak powerhouses are also people, they are just far superior to mortals in terms of strength, they will have joys and sorrows, they will have love and hatred, in the final analysis, their essence is no different from mortals.

Even the powerful people of the high law can hardly break free from the troubles of the world, let alone Donnaxiu a small peak of the upper position.

As night fell, the room at the end of the corridor was silent, like a forbidden place.

The remaining guards of the villa did not dare to approach lightly, for fear that the darkness would silently swallow them.
