Chapter 34: The Assassins

Clifford and Liana got out of the carriage and walked into Vienna's pedestrian streets, wanting to enjoy the Viennese evening.

"What do you want to eat? Liana. Collifer took Liana's hand and smiled slightly.

Liana subconsciously touched her stomach, she was really a little hungry, although she ate a little at the dance, she didn't dare to eat more, but she just understood the meaning, until now, she was really hungry, and said with a smile: "The master decides, Liana listens to the master." ”

"Then eat whatever you want." Collifer pulled Liana into a tavern, called the owner over, and ordered two dishes at random.

The two chatted while eating, Liana bit her fork, looked at Clifford with some curiosity and smiled: "Master, is your hometown as beautiful as here?" ”

Clifford shrugged his shoulders and said with a speechless expression: "Liana, you should know that I was sent to Vienna as a hostage when I was five years old, and I can't remember what my hometown looks like, I just remember that it was not so prosperous there." But I still like it there. ”

"Why?" Liana asked, with wide eyes and a little puzzled.

"Because that's my territory." Clifford said lightly with an expressionless face.

The two of them were in high spirits and talked about a lot of things, not noticing that in a corner of the tavern, a man with a scar on his face was staring at Clifford with a cold and greedy gaze.

That person was the killer Gandalf was looking for, he had already negotiated the price with Gandalf, and the next day he went to the old place to wait for him, but he didn't think about waiting left and right, but he couldn't wait, and then he never saw him again, and the killer's intuition told this Scarface that Gandalf might be unlucky.

However, Gandalf's words moved Scarface, not because of anything else, but because he said that his former master, Clifford, had a lot of money and was just an unappreciated waste earl.

The scarface decided to get rid of Gandalf and go it alone, but the next day there were new servants in Clifford's house, and then there were several, and it became more and more difficult to start.

His greed had been hooked up and could no longer be suppressed, and he had been keeping an eye on Clifford's movements for the past few days, hoping to find an opportunity to make a move.

The suppression of the past few days has made him feel very uncomfortable, and this time he met Clifford here, and the greed and anger in his heart unconsciously surged up, and the eyes that looked at him were much more vicious.

Clifford was unaware of this, and after eating, he took Liana's little hand and said, "Okay, Liana, let's go back, if it's too late, they will be in a hurry." ”

Liana also had this intention, and took her master outside for too long, which is not what a servant should do, and stood up with a smile, put her arm around Clifford, and said with a smile: "Okay, master." Liana, I'll go back with you. ”

The two settled the bill and walked to the place where Alan had parked. Seeing this, the scarface also hurriedly settled the account, and quietly followed behind the two Clifford master and servant, thinking if he could find an opportunity to start.

Since Clifford and Liana had been chatting for a long time, there were very few people on the street at this time, and many shops were closed.

Scarface quietly followed the two, thinking about whether to make a move at this time, when suddenly, two black shadows came out of the alley on his side, and one of them held a dagger against his waist and said coldly, "Come with us." ”

Scarface subconsciously touched the short knife pinned to his waist, not wanting that his right hand had been buckled at this time, and the dagger had been pushed harder, and it had already touched his skin, but he heard the man in black say coldly: "Don't play tricks with us, if you still want to live." ”

Scarface was now being treated to death, and he didn't dare to move, so he could only obediently comply, and said, "Okay, my friend, I'll go with you." I hope we don't hurt the peace. ”

The men in black immediately took the knife from his waist, then covered his head with a black cloth and carried him into a carriage.

The carriage traveled for a long time in the dark night, and at some point, stopped at a place, and Scarface was taken down to a room, and then was pushed to his knees.

He felt very uncomfortable, but at this time, his life was in the hands of others and he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he could only force the fire and said very politely: "Dear friend, I don't know who you are, and I don't think I will know." But you tell me anyway, what are you bringing me here for? ”

No one had taken off his hood, so he could not see anything, except that he heard a man say, "What do you want to do with Earl Clifford all these days?" ”

"Oh God." Scarface, of course, refused to admit it, straightened up, and defended in a very innocent tone: "I don't know Earl Clifford at all, why should I follow him, are you mistaken?" ”

"Hmph." Scarface heard a sneer, and that sneer made him shudder, and he subconsciously shuddered, only to hear the man say, "It's good that you refuse to tell the truth." You should know the rules, what kind of treatment people like you will get, I don't think I need to say more. ”

So two men came and pulled him. Scarface was frightened, he knew that this was going to make him worse than death, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly said, "No, no." Dear friends, don't do this. Well, a friend of mine had a little trouble with the Earl of Clifford, and wanted me to teach him a lesson. It's just that he is a nobleman, so I don't dare to agree easily, so I told my friend to see the situation first. ”

He was cunning, half-truths, Gandalf was certainly not in this place anyway, and no one knew what the truth of the matter was.

"Hmph." The man let out another oozing sneer and said, "I'm sure you're telling the truth. Let me ask you, you have been with him for so many days, have you figured out the pattern of his activities? ”

Scarface's eyes rolled several times, and the thoughts in his mind spun rapidly, listening to the meaning of this, this person seems to be unfavorable to Clifford, if this is the case, he will be safe, but he has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and he will not easily trust others, in case someone sets you up, and said, "I didn't deliberately pay attention to him?" I'm just trying to get a little bit of information so I can deal with my friend, who is a nobleman, after all. ”

"Really?" I only heard the man say coldly: "Since this is the case, then you will be of no use to me, take him down!" ”
