Chapter 991: Gap (Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription, ask for a recommendation)
"We want to know exactly what you've found, and we, as the investigation team, are qualified to know anything about the progress of the investigation into this case, so we'd like you to share your information."
When Bruce said this, he had very mixed feelings. He naturally understands the closeness of Isabella and Solam, after all, whether it is what he sees or the messy news outside, he knows that Isabella has a special affection for Solam.
To be honest, when he first found out about this kind of thing, Bruce didn't think about drawing his sword and fighting Solam, even if he couldn't beat Solam, he didn't want to suffer this kind of bird anger.
But every time he saw Isabella's sincere smile on himself, Bruce never had the courage to challenge Soram again. Because Bruce wasn't sure if Isabella had really changed her mind......
Sounds ridiculous, right?
But that's what Bruce really thinks. He knew that Isabella had suffered a lot, and he knew that if it hadn't been for Solam's rescue, Isabella might have suffered unimaginable misery. So Bruce can understand why Isabella has a special affection for Solam.
If Isabella really changed her mind about this, and Bruce admitted it, he might be angry, but he would never embarrass Isabella, and even blessed Isabella in the end. But Isabella didn't feel like this for him, he could feel that Isabella had feelings for him, after all, when the two got along, that kind of warmth couldn't deceive him.
So things are complicated, if he challenges Soram for this, Isabella will definitely be angry, because it means not trusting Isabella, and Bruce is afraid of losing Isabella, especially after almost losing her before. But looking at Isabella's closeness to Solam, the blues are even more popular!
Bruce is aggrieved, so he decides to leave Isabella and let everyone calm each other. Let Isabella seriously consider how the two of them feel about each other. So when the church summoned Bruce to investigate the murder, Bruce did not refuse, and soon left the Lancester Manor.
Unexpectedly, just like that, fate played a joke again, bringing him together with Soram and Isabella again.
That's right, Bruce didn't want to come on his own, he was assigned. There is no way that Solam has just come to Bowclan, not only is Soram himself still very new to this place, but the people here also know little about Solam.
And Rist and Bruce are the ones who have rarely come into contact with Solam and have not had a violent conflict. So, as it should be, they were sent over to inquire about the information.
"Hey, you guys are quite good at stealing credit, so why do you start hitting my attention after a while?" Solam was simply dismissive of Bruce's rhetoric! These guys started investigating the homicide many days before Solam, and the result? After so many days, not only have not even a single hair been found, but there are also a few more victims.
This kind of efficiency is to let Soram be their leader, and Soram will make trouble for them. It is estimated that the guys in these investigation teams have suffered a lot. Of course, Solam didn't look down on these guys much.
After all, these guys, like themselves, are half a bucket of water, and they are not the material for investigating the case at all. Is he Soram on his own? He hadn't relied on Scarlett's prompts to find something yet.
This kind of thing really responds to that sentence, professional things, or leave it to professionals. Unfortunately, this is not the case in Towcent, where knighthood is not just a title, but more of a responsibility.
In the country of knights, knights not only need to defend their families and defend the country, hoe the strong and help the weak, but also need to be in charge of various government affairs such as civil and criminal punishments. It's better at the top, the Grand Guild appoints some professional personnel to be ministers, but the further down the principality, the more things the knights have to take care of.
In a word, the knight is in Towcente, and the knight really becomes, getting on the horse to manage the army, and getting off the horse to manage the people. No way, this is a limitation of the social system, after all, there are no civil service exams such as scientific examinations in this world.
Talent selection can only be so rough. But just like this, it is much better than other countries, other countries like this kind of government affairs are controlled by the aristocracy, and many useful talents have no way to rise at all. It's different in Towcente, there is no limit to the origin of knights, and civilians can also become knights, but it's more difficult, but it's better than being completely solidified.
"That's not what I said, we didn't do this to grab credit, we originally had such power, besides, we have more people on our side, even if we want to check something, it's faster."
This time Isabella's brother, Lister stepped up.
Don't look at Rist's usual cold face, but he is actually very good at talking. I don't know why I always have a bad relationship with my other attendants at the same time.
"Oh, maybe." Solam shrugged noncommittally. γ
Solam really wasn't interested in having to deal with that investigation team, and he even wished someone would help him find out. It's a pity that even if the investigation team knows about this matter now, they have no choice but to make trouble, and it is impossible to provide any help to Solam.
The murderer is Degra, so let's not talk about it for now.
It's just that Yart's extremely strange experience, and the investigation team can't find out! How to investigate, this matter clearly involves some secrets within the royal family, which allows the investigation team to investigate the official person? Or let them check the royal family?
Let's not talk about it, is this investigation team so upright, just say that it may make the murderer alert, and Soram can't let them interfere! Solam now seriously suspects that this matter is something that is done within the royal family or at the top of the principality!
"I did find something, but the clues are very vague, it's useless to tell you now, I still need to verify!" Of course, Soram didn't send them away directly, after all, as Rist said, they still have some use.
"What verification is required? We might be able to help you! Rist immediately replied.
Rist is different from Bruce, Bruce ran to the investigation team, more to separate from Isabella, so that the two can think about each other's affairs, and he is not urgent about the results of the investigation.
Klister is different, he needs to prove himself badly now! He wants to be a real man, he doesn't want his sister to work hard for himself, Isabella's disappearance has made Rister regretful, and he wants to be independent as soon as possible.
And this case is an opportunity, as long as he can make meritorious contributions in this big case. Then this will be very useful for his evaluation, and even shorten his squire life, so that he can become a full-fledged knight as soon as possible!
As long as she becomes an official knight, Isabella will be much easier. So Rist is really reckless in investigating this case. It's a pity that Rist is not a Grim Reaper schoolboy and doesn't have any special talent for investigating cases, so he doesn't help much. This made Lister very anxious, after all, this opportunity in front of him is really rare.
It was at this time that he was finally able to get some useful information from Solam, and of course he had to seize it.
"I need details for everyone but Yalt!" Soram didn't bother to be polite, and directly put forward his own request.
Whether it's Ekir, Erro or Diana, their identities are not ordinary, if Soram wants to check their information privately, it is estimated that he will not gain anything, but their investigation team is different, they represent the official!
Bruce frowned a little when he heard Soram's request, he felt that Soram was really perfunctory to them. After all, the investigation team has already had these personal information, and Solam himself has seen it, so why do you need these now?
"Our investigation team already has their information, and you should have seen all those things, what else do you want?"
"No, no, I'm talking in detail! Do you understand what is detailed? That is, I even know when he will be weaned and when he will not wet the bed! Soram hopes to confirm his previous suspicion that they had something to do with the princess's death.
"You want to know what those are for?" Bruce still didn't understand.
For Bruce's ink, Soram is also a little helpless. Fortunately, this guy is a paladin, and for this kind of person, Solam still has a way.
"Isabella, take your brother something to eat first, I have something to talk to Bruce. By the way, what I told you before, you have to tell Yatana, I have no opinion, but don't tell anyone! Remember, it's millions! Also, this kid can't know that the water in here is too deep, and he is a small child, he knows too much, and he will drown at any time! β
When it comes to the affairs of the court, it is considered to be a life-threatening thing in any plane, no matter how precocious Rister is, but after all, he is just a child, and it is a little too irresponsible to let him get involved. As for Yatana, it doesn't matter, after all, it can't be her behind the scenes, and it's nothing to tell her, and, as a ruler, her political level is excellent, and it is impossible to spread this matter casually.
Although Rist was reluctant, Isabella forced him out. Isabella was naΓ―ve, but not stupid, and of course knew that Soram had a point.
When the others went out, Soram looked at Bruce seriously.
"Can you swear that you will never pass on my next words?"
Seeing Soram being so cautious, Bruce also knew that what Soram said next must be very serious.
"......, yes! I swear by the glory of the Lord of Light! Although he didn't understand why Soram suddenly said that, Bruce decided to believe Soram.
"Good!" For a paladin who believes in the Lord of Radiance, such an oath is enough! "I found out that this incident has something to do with an incident from sixteen years ago."
Bruce watched as Soram waited for his next words.
"Sixteen years ago, Yatana's sister died in Marienburg. Externally, the royal family said that he died of illness, but I have many clues that this matter is not so simple! What's even more interesting is that the first victim at that time, Knight Yalt, was in Marienburg at that time! After that he left Marienburg, and then disappeared from Bowkeland altogether! He didn't come back for more than ten years, but as soon as he came back, he died! At the same time, several of the other victims were also in Bowland at the time, and they were all in the court! β
Bruce now understands why Soram is so cautious, and this matter actually involves the royal family.
"Do you have any proof?" Bruce asked in a whisper.
Although Bruce is a Toussente, he is a member of the church, and his allegiance is directed to the gods, not the Grand Duke. It is also because of this that he must be cautious in dealing with this kind of thing! After all, it is a royal family, even if the Glorious Church is the state religion, it is impossible to casually suspect the royal family of a principality, the impact is too bad.
So he regretted getting involved in this matter a little, the church meddled in this matter, more to help the Duchy of Towcent, not to make trouble for the Duchy of Towcent, and this time it was found on the head of the royal family, how could Bruce explain? So he had to prove it.
"Cut! If I have proof, I still need to talk to you? What should I have done when I went a long time ago? Solam pouted. It's just that there is no evidence, so I let you keep it secret. And, you think, is there really such a coincidence in this world? Yalt hasn't come back for more than ten years, and when he comes back, he burps! Then there is the serial homicide, can you say it's a coincidence? β
