Chapter 149: Arrest

When she saw this bloody scene, unexpectedly, Belia was not surprised or scared, she didn't even have the slightest surprise.

Because she already knew that the thirst for power had blinded Matthew, and that he was no longer her most beloved brother, but a careerist, a madman, and a pervert.

She felt nothing but sadness and anger at this.

The Si people have passed away, and the living have to live strongly, not only for the living, but also for the dead.

Soon, Belia noticed some clues.

She found that her father's angry eyes were focused on a dagger inserted into the bed before he died.

This is a very strange position, like the old earl, he must be exhausted and miserable before he dies, and if he commits suicide, he must want to die as quickly as possible. But why did he stick the dagger into the bed before he died?

Belia walked over to the old earl's bed, pulled out the dagger, and upon closer inspection, found that there was nothing peculiar about the dagger itself.

So, is the problem on the bed board?

She looked into the hollow of the bed board that had been pierced by the dagger, and saw that it was hollow inside!

Everything seemed obvious, and the reason why my father had made such a superfluous arrangement before he died was for the sake of the key items hidden under the bed.

It must be something that can affect the situation.

When Belia thought of this, she made up her mind to find it.

She is not only a little girl, she is also a little princess of Savoy, and there are some things that she must do.

Belia held the dagger and stabbed it into the crack around the jack of the bed.

She was going to use her thin body to chisel open the bed board and find the secret under the bed.

Robert led his troops back and forth to search the area where Don Quixote had been active, but for some reason, he did not find the slightest trace of Belea.

"Damn it!" Robert kicked a corpse, and the corpse flew to the wall, and the dark red blood painted on the wall in the shape of a human being.

And at this moment, the sky under the night opened and the moon appeared, and under the illumination of a crimson light, the half-moon that was like bright silver was quickly rendered into a cruel blood red! Such a strange and evil vision was undoubtedly a bad omen in the eyes of the superstitious people of the time!

An officer looked at the crimson moon in the sky, and with a look of fear on his face, he walked up to Robert and told him about his concerns:

"Lord Robert, the Crimson Moon has always been a bad omen, I thought, should we stop acting?"

Robert glanced at him coldly, and said lightly: "If we can't find Belea, then Master Matthew will be furious, and I will be dismissed for doing things badly, if I am dismissed, then do you think you will have any good end?" ”

The officer was silent, not daring to look Robert in the eye again.

Robert snapped a reminder: "A bad omen? Hehe, I can't find Belia, that's the biggest bad omen! Instead of focusing on these boring weather landscapes, you should think more about how you can find Belia as quickly as possible. ”

The reprimanded officer nodded in trepidation, bowed deeply, and apologized, "I'm sorry, Lord Robert. ”

At this moment, another officer came up and asked tentatively, "Lord Robert, I have some ideas that I don't know if they are feasible or not." ”

Robert shook his eyebrows and said curiously, "Let's talk about it." ”

The officer sorted out his thoughts and language for a while, and then he said:

"Although Belia is intelligent, she is still in the category of normal people. Generally speaking, a normal person, in a chaotic city, in order to avoid the capture of the enemy, if possible, he will only choose two places to hide. ”

This statement was not intended to provoke Robert's interest, and he looked into the officer's eyes and smiled: "Which two?" ”

The officer replied, "One is the closest hiding place to you, and the other is the hiding place you are most familiar with." Among them, if time permits, he will first find the hiding place he is most familiar with, and then the closest hiding place to himself. ”

Robert nodded, then fell into deep thought.

Indeed, the officer's statement is indeed human, and people usually hide only in the places closest to them, or where they are most familiar. And Don Quixote used his life to buy Belia a lot of time to escape, then, time conditions permit, Belia should hide in a place she is familiar with.

This place, there are only two.

Earl's Court, Second Viscount's Palace.

Because the Earl's Court is her home, and the Second Viscount's Court is the home of her favorite brother, Caesar.

Thinking through this joint, Robert's eyebrows furrowed into a slight smile. He patted the officer on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Man, you're smart. Well, if I can catch Belia, I'll pay attention to the Count and make you a baron. ”

The officer was overjoyed, and then gave Robert a standard and solemn Savoy salute, saying, "Thank you for your generosity, my lordship. ”

Robert shook his head and said, "You shouldn't thank me, but Count Matthew." ”

The officer suddenly realized and nodded again and again.

Immediately afterwards, according to this line of thought, Robert ordered the officer to lead people and blockade the Second Viscount's Palace, and he himself came to the Earl's Palace with 50 infantry.

After sealing off the Earl's Palace, Robert kicked open the door with the dark shadow of the night, and then saw the golden wind and rain flowers all over the garden, swaying in the wind.

Seemingly, no one.

Robert frowned, then entered the mansion himself and began to search every room.

Passing by the Count's room, he pushed open the door and saw what Belia had seen before.

"The murderer of kings and fathers, Matthew. Titus. ”

There was such a sentence on the wall.

The old earl's body lay on the bed.

Robert couldn't help but shake his head when he saw such a scene.

As Matthew's henchman, of course he knew that the old earl had been killed by Master Matthew.

As it is written on the wall, Matthew is the one who killed the king and the father, which is very dishonorable, and can even be said to be exterminating and shameless. But such a thing must not be known to outsiders, and in the same way, the words on the wall must not be seen by a second person.

If the words on the wall are seen and spread through the mouths of the heart, then Master Matthew's reputation will be completely ruined, and there will be no chance of remedy.

Everything, in order to maintain the reputation of Viscount Matthew.

And at this time, the three soldiers who followed closely behind Robert walked into the old earl's room, and naturally, they also saw this scene.

Robert sighed, turned to look at the three soldiers, and asked, "What do you see?" ”

The first soldier looked at the words on the wall, his mouth grown, and without thinking, he subconsciously replied: "The murderer of the king and the father, Matthew... Titus?! ”

The moment he blurted out, he immediately covered his mouth and looked at Robert who slowly raised his sword in horror.

Robert said lightly, "I'm sorry, man. ”

With that, he slashed the soldier to death with a sword.
