Chapter 22: Last Night's Incident

"Teng Teng Teng", as Johnson Renault strode away with the unique steps of a soldier, a group of juniors and subordinates set off one after another, Sophie, who was in the front row of the team, glanced at Normer deeply, nodded as a farewell, and then turned to leave.

The two aristocratic youths who had approached the morning light before making a vigilant posture automatically broke off, looked coldly here, and then silently turned around and left. That haughty and hostile attitude didn't even bother to hide it a little.

Normer smiled, but didn't turn around immediately, but stood there waiting for the other to leave.

The process of contact between the two sides was very short, he didn't say a few words, and the atmosphere was not harmonious, but as the principal of the younger party, he still had to politely wait for the older party to leave first, otherwise if he took his ass to the other party for the first time, he would be criticized for being unruly.

Sophie's voice came from ahead, and I heard her say, "Uncle, let's talk first." I won't be going to the banquet in the City Lord's Mansion tonight. What kind of Stipild, the family is not a good thing. In particular, the one named Ivan Stipild is simply a pervert, I heard that he likes to abuse and kill women the most, and what he does on weekdays is simply appalling. I don't want to deal with such scum. ”

"Don't talk nonsense! People are friends with us! Also, be cautious when you speak in the future, how can you export scum or something. It's not good for outsiders to hear it out. No matter how low the voice of the deputy commander of the city patrol was, Normer and the others could hear it clearly.

"I'm not talking nonsense! If I don't believe my uncle, I'll ask Brother Pierre. What I'm talking about is known throughout Manny Foster City, and you can just ask someone to find out. The woman in blue still held her neck and insisted.

"Sophie is right, it is. A young aristocratic man named Pierre testified that the direction of the voice was the lean and lean of the two young men.

"Is there really such a thing? Okay, okay, whatever you ......want," his voice softened, and it was obvious that in the face of the woman in blue who was supported by his own family, Deputy Commander Johnson Renault had already been defeated and compromised.

The group talked, drifting away.

Dawn looked at Normer, who was standing there, and suddenly came to him with a coquettish smile and said, "Brother, don't look at it. People have long since gone away. ”

As soon as Normer saw the girl's crooked eyebrows, he knew that she was going to be funny again, so he asked with a straight face, "What do you mean?"

"What else could it mean. Don't think too much about it, brother. Chenxi grinned and said: "The elders don't look down on you, and they even deliberately 'forget' the formal face-to-face introduction." No matter how beautiful the blue-clothed sister Sophie is, no matter how beautiful her body is, her brother won't have a chance. ”

"Alas, poor thing. There is a saying that 'falling flowers are intentional, and flowing water is ruthless', and the lord of this 'cannon fodder collar', no matter how nice it is, is just the 'number one cannon fodder' in 'cannon fodder'. Seeing that the thousand-year armistice agreement is about to expire and the renewal has not yet been settled, who is willing to marry the precious daughter of the family to you at this juncture? ”

Without waiting for the boy to have a chance to explain, the girl shook her head exaggeratedly and shook her head again and again, with a subdued tone of frustration, looking quite regretful. If it weren't for the smug smile on his face, maybe there would have been some sincerity.

People are old aristocrats, and they have their own national conditions, how can they blame others for being inflammatory?

In these years, animals know that survival is not easy, and they need to be cautious when they go out, and they often rely on intuition to avoid evil, not to mention the old nobles who consider themselves superior, and all actions should be taken to ensure the interests of the family as the first priority.

As Sophie secretly regretted for Chenxi, whether the marriage between nobles can bring enough benefits to both families is the most important reference index for whether this marriage can be achieved.

Of course, today's chance encounter is not about the occasion and time of the matchmaker, but Johnson Renault's "omission" of introducing the accompanying female family members, and the rude act of hastily interrupting the conversation with only a slight cover-up, undoubtedly indirectly shows his attitude towards Normer's side, to put it simply, on the premise of not tearing his face, he minimizes contact, and even lacks interest in lip-to-mouth interaction with Viscount Inmotoo's family.

The morning light can see through it, and Normer naturally understands it.

The young man was angry and funny, and simply slapped the back of Chenxi's head, "Nonsense! I'm worried, listening to their conversation just now, this Renault family seems to have a lot to do with the Stipild family." Once there is a conflict between our trip and the City Lord's Mansion, the other party will have such a powerful group of foreign aid to help, which will be quite unfavorable to us. ”

"Cut! I should have something to do. They dared to intervene sideways and help the bad guys, and Miss Ben even cleaned them up. The girl waved her arms in a dashing manner and came to a conclusion domineeringly.

I don't know if it's because standing in the place where the regent of the dragon clan single-handedly turned the tide, the morning light was also infected with a little bit of the heroic spirit of the dragon clan sweeping the world, the sun shone on her almost transparent skin, faintly revealing a layer of halo, like the aura blessing of the holy order, which actually added a lot of convincing power to her serious expression and free and easy posture, and she was a mortal Valkyrie.

Noel rolled his eyes wordlessly at Dawn's angry statement, almost believing it.

Let's not talk about it first, the high-ranking samurai Johnson Renault, who left with his bare feet, casually waved a punch over, and he and Chenxi were about to walk around without eating, I really don't know where the girl got the confidence and courage to say the bold words before.

The nostalgia was first interrupted by Miss Sophie's rudeness, and then Johnson Renault's seemingly decent, but deliberately distant attitude, the trio's original interest also weakened a lot, and after hastily browsing the remaining ruins worth seeing, such as the arrow tower and the cave of the hidden soldiers, Plitander looked at the sun and suggested that it was time to go to Manny Foster City.

At this moment, in the lobby of the city guard of Manny Ford City, a young man sitting on the main seat asked expressionlessly: "So, you don't even know what the person who killed Sails looks like, so you are in a hurry to come back and report the news?"

The interrogator was over thirty years old, with a slightly pale face, indifferent expression, combined with his eyes that flickered with cold light from time to time, coupled with the flickering candlelight behind him, full of gloomy compassion, which looked particularly weird.

When he asked this question, it was like a poisonous snake sticking out its tongue at a frog and other weak prey, although it had not yet spoken, it was enough to make people shudder.

Several mercenaries kneeling at the bottom of the steps trembled with their legs, and the leader swallowed his saliva, suppressed the idea of wiping off the cold sweat on his forehead, and replied with a hard head: "Back to the words of the commander, it is like this, as soon as the little ones heard the little young master's cry for help, they immediately rushed up the mountain to rescue, and when they arrived at the entrance of the cave, they only saw the corpses in one place, and there was ...... inside There is a little master inside. The murderers have all run away, and they really haven't seen the real murderer. ”

The more he spoke, the quieter his voice became, and the more he spoke, the more he stammered, and he didn't dare to raise his head to meet the young man's eyes.

Although the other party was sitting, the iron-like stiff and clear muscle lines on the upper and lower parts of the body, and the long and protruding knuckle fingers brought a strong sense of fear and oppression to the mercenaries, the reason is that the person who questioned him was the commander of the city guard who held the power of Manchester City and killed people without blinking, the eldest son of the city lord with the nickname "Ivan the Terrible", and the eldest brother of the evil young man Sails Stipild who relied on the backer, Ivan Stipild!

It was the brutal Ivan Stipild that allowed Sayles to do whatever he wanted on the territory of Manny Foster, brazenly molesting and abducting good women, and plundering and killing passing merchants in broad daylight. No matter how evil he does, there is a "terrible Ivan" to smooth him out.

The mercenary who answered was very scared, his nerves were tense, don't look at the young commander's calm questioning, looking reasonable, God knows when he will burst out, and kill himself and several equally unlucky partners with one punch.

Ivan Stipild is only in his thirties this year, and in just over a decade since he turned 20 and took over as the commander of the Manchester City Guard, and at the same time held the city's judicial, internal and external military powers, he has been known for his moody killings and ruthlessness, and has established a "remarkable reputation" for the reign of terror.

"Hmm. It's not easy for you to bring back my brother's body. ”

Rubbing the translucent purse in his hand, the commander of the city guard army still spoke calmly, and ordered, "Someone." ”

"Here!" Among the officers of the city guard standing in two rows, one officer standing at the front of the line immediately answered the call, standing side by side in front of the steps and waiting for orders.

"You lead the team and wait around the headquarters of the 'Red Hot Chili Pepper Mercenary Regiment'. Keep an eye on it, don't be in a hurry to do it first, and then close the net when you see Danice go in, don't miss one. Ivan motioned to the little officer on his left and said, "Forgive that sassy hoof will not come back, I will go over myself when I receive the letter." ”

"Yes, little one understands. None of the murderers will be let go. The little ones besieged it first, and waited for the arrival of the great commander before they moved. The little officer gave the order, and with a pair of triangular eyes, he was obviously a sinister and cautious man, and he was usually reliable, so Ivan Stipild assigned him the task of hunting down Denise, the culprit of Sayles's death.

With a straight face, the little officer turned around and left neatly.

When several mercenaries heard this, they all shuddered.

The commander of the city guard army ordered that the so-called "don't miss a single one" is clearly to wipe out the Red Hot Chili Mercenary Group up and down, regardless of the mercenaries in the group or their families. Thinking of the ruthlessness and spiciness, even if he stood on the opposite side of the Red Chili Pepper Mercenary Group, he couldn't help but sigh with sadness and sadness of the rabbit and the fox.

As the saying goes, "it doesn't hurt the family", and the trouble caused by Danice should be borne by herself, but it doesn't work here in Ivan Stipild, living in the territory under his jurisdiction, if you don't provoke him, you may be unlucky at any time, and if you provoke it, you can hope to be good?

Others may not know much about the cruelty of that Ivan Stipild, but after all, they have been a dog's leg for Sayles for so long, how can they not know a thing or two.

The female leader of the "Sao Hoof" mercenary group who caused Sayles's tragic death, unless she was lucky enough and made up her mind not to return to the city, as long as she dared to come back, she would fall into the hands of the commander of the city guard who tortured and tortured women, and I am afraid that she would inevitably have to go to the skinning pavilion to "taste" the taste of skinning alive.

"And you," Ivan Stipild's light tone interrupted the mercenaries' silent condolences for Danice's white skin, only to see the young man rub his fingers and say to another officer who was waiting for the order: "Give me the immediate seizure of the 'Blood Wolf Mercenary Group' and search for all members and families." Men are sent directly to the mines for mining, women are sold into brothels as bitches and never ransomed, and old people and children are sold into slavery. ”
