Chapter 11: The Monarch

Zur City, Palace of Parliament.

The three towering buildings crisscross the front and back, and in front of them is a smooth stone road with long pools on both sides, surrounded by a variety of rare trees, and birds falling from time to time.

As the highest center of power in the Zur Empire, the Palace of Parliament was of course built very atmospherically, after all, it was the faΓ§ade of the empire.

On the nearly ten-meter-wide stone road in front of the Palace of Parliament, under the guidance of the red-haired man, Su Xiao, Bu Buwang, and Bonnie were walking slowly, and on both sides of the road were two rows of soldiers in battle armor, although they were not awakened, and their strength alone was not too strong, but if they formed a battle formation, their combat effectiveness would not be weaker than that of the same number of awakened people, because they were more perfect existences, the children of the awakened.

The power of the Awakened can be passed on to the next generation, but only for one generation, and when it comes to grandchildren, they will become ordinary people, and the scientific researchers of the empire have been studying this problem, but the reason is still unknown.

The journey was unimpeded, and when he entered the Palace of Parliament, the red-haired man motioned to Su Xiao and the others to wait, and after about a few minutes, he returned and took Su Xiao and the others up to the fifth floor of the Palace of Parliament and came to a bedroom.

After knocking on the door, a deep voice came from the room, and when the door was opened, a faint smell of blood permeated.

This is a bedroom of less than 100 square meters, judging from the furnishings of the room, the owner of the room is a man of great taste, and on the bed near the inside, lies a man of about forty years old, with a short beard at the chin, his face is pale and looks weak, but his eyes are very bright, and he seems to be able to see through many things.

"Kukulin, you're here."

The man was sitting at the head of the bed, he was shirtless, and on his chest, there was a circle of bandages, this man was not a small man, Monarch Harold, the monarch of the Zur Empire, the only one who could rise above the Parliament.

"Your Majesty Harold."

The title in Su Xiao's mouth is the name of Harold by the former deputy commander.

"Hey, what era are these people in your execution agency, and your Majesty,"

Harold sat up straight, with some effort, and the red-haired man hurriedly stepped forward and tried to support Harold, but Harold raised his hand and refused.

"Obviously, I was also assassinated, stabbed in the chest by my beloved, and if it weren't for her weakness, you might be attending my funeral right now."

Harold is different from what he imagined, he does not have the majesty of a monarch, and he is even a little funny, but just when they met for the first time, Su Xiao judged that this was a super old yin beep.

"You, me, and Lady Nancy were all assassinated, and you should have guessed the reason."

Harold glanced at Iselvie Bonnie as he spoke, a little puzzled, after all, he had seen too many people, it was impossible not to remember all of them, and the genius little Lori could only be regarded as a small person.

"Keys."

The basement key slipped out of Su Xiao's cuff, this thing was so special that it couldn't be stored in the storage space.

"That's right, it's the key, Lady Nancy has been here before."

Harold didn't continue, the meaning was actually obvious, that is, one of the two of them was pierced in the chest, and the other was picked off the tendon, why was he also assassinated, Su Xiao didn't have a fart.

"When I was assassinated, I tortured the assassin by the way, it was a ghost organization called the Ghost Ring."

"Ghost ring?"

Harold looked at the red-haired man, who shook his head and signaled that he hadn't heard.

"Help me up," Monarch Harold stood up with the support of the red-haired man, and after adjusting his breathing, he motioned for Su Xiao to go with him to a place, as for Isevi Bonnie, although he didn't say it explicitly, Harold meant to let her go while cooling.

"Lord Harold, I'm I'm Iseve Bonnie, the one who played chess with you."

"Ysevie Bonnie?" Harold pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered who Bonnie was, and he said with interest: "I was very impressed by the last chess game, come along, you may be able to help." ”

The group went straight to the building behind the Palace of Parliament, which was a half-built building, and as soon as they entered here, Su Xiao felt a cold feeling, and Bu Buwang sneezed a few times.

This is the storage room of the Palace of Parliament, where some fresh vegetables are stored, and as you go further underground, it is actually a secret prison where Harold's beloved is held.

"I couldn't figure out why Eve would stab me."

In front of a rusty iron door, Harold pressed one hand to his chest.

"Eve is being held here, her sister Yule is in the next room, her parents and brother are in the room there, and her distant relatives are in the innermost room."

Harold said the most cruel words in the most bland tone, and his beloved Eve stabbed him, in exchange for all the relatives being imprisoned, and the whole family was here.

"Don't hurt her, as for the others, you judge for yourself."

The reason why Harold brought Su Xiao here is very simple, among the three people who were assassinated, Mrs. Nancy can do only a limited amount of things, and some things Harold is not good to do personally, as for people in other departments, it is even more inappropriate, the assassination of Harold is confidential, and the less people know, the better.

"Psychologically, too?"

"Well, give her some dignity."

Harold looked a little tired, and Su Xiao didn't continue to ask, but pushed open the rusty iron door.

It was a somewhat cramped room, windowless, with a musty smell in the air, and there was only a wooden bed in which sat a short-haired woman in a long milky white dress, her appearance was beautiful, but the short hair was a little weird, as if it had been roughly cut with a sharp object, rather than carefully groomed.

Sitting on the bed was Eve, Harold's second wife.

"Did he let you come?"

Eve is very calm, that kind of gentle and peaceful temperament, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like she can stab someone, Su Xiao even doubts, she really has the strength to swing the dagger?

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Su Xiao just stood at the door and stared at Eve, without saying a word.

One minute, two minutes, five minutes.

Fine beads of sweat oozed from Eve's cheeks, and it was conceivable what it was like to be stared at by Su Xiao, although Eve seemed to be powerless, but she had a stubbornness and unyielding in her bones.

"It was only a short process, the brain seemed to be frozen, and by the time I was awake, the knife in my hand had already stabbed Harold, and believe me, I was in more pain than he was."

Eve may have been stared at by Su Xiao and couldn't stand it, but Su Xiao had already learned about her remarks from Harold before.

"Your sister may know something."

Leaving these words, Su Xiao turned around and walked out of the room.

"Wait, I really don't have ......"

Eve got up from the bed, she panicked, because she knew who Su Xiao was, this is a monster that can slaughter ghosts, and this monster is about to interrogate her sister, she knows her husband Harold, no matter what she does, her husband will not torture her, from her current situation shows this, but this does not mean that her sister has the same treatment, Harold, this super old man, does not care about the life or death of his sister-in-law.

With a bang, the iron door closed, and Eve's white hands pushed against it.

"Harold, stop him, that's Yule, you can't do this to her, you can't."

Faint slapping and cries came from inside the iron door, and a somewhat frail Harold leaned against the wall, his eyes showing no mood swings: "I'm sorry, Eve, it's about the key." ”
