Volume II: Chapter 15: The Signs
I don't know if it's because I haven't slept well for too long, or if it's something else, but in the early morning, I heard that there seemed to be some noise outside. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info suddenly woke up slowly, and his head seemed to be a little heavy.
Looking around, Xue Ye began to slowly wake up, only to find that the outside was already full of chaotic sounds.
Snowy Night was about to get up to open the door when there was a very heavy knock on the door.
Xue Ye frowned and walked over to open the door.
Looking at the group of guards who appeared in front of him, he suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face. Isn't this the pair of guards I saw patrolling the streets yesterday? How did it come out here.
"Hello, we are the guards of the City of Fangs, there is a murder here and you need to cooperate with the investigation, I hope you don't be stupid to make any drastic reactions." The captain who took the lead said calmly.
At this time, Xue Ye also saw the captain's appearance clearly.
The resolute silhouette, the bright eyes, and the residual feeling on the face that does not match the age. I originally thought that this captain was at least middle-aged, but I didn't expect to be so young.
"I don't know exactly what's going on, but I'll cooperate if you're just doing a routine investigation." Relieved by the snowy night, he replied in deep thought.
To be honest, Xue Ye was quite surprised, looking at the scene in front of him, he was in a trance, as if he hadn't felt the constraints of the law for a long time, and he was a little unaccustomed to it for a while. I almost forgot that there was still order here.
Looking at the young man in front of him, he seemed willing to cooperate with the investigation. The captain was also secretly relieved, knowing that there was no shortage of noble people passing by, and there was also no shortage of powerful people. Although the young man in front of him didn't seem to have anything to do with either, who would want to do more if he could do less.
"Then this gentleman will trouble coming with us." The Captain of the Guard's tone seemed much softer.
"Bring all the people involved back and ask." With that, he turned around and shouted.
Snowy Night naturally followed the young captain of the guard and walked out.
Suddenly, I felt as if I was looking at me with strange eyes.
Strange swept over with the corner of his eye.
Although it was only for a moment, Xue Ye still caught the exposed beauty who had received her in the front hall before seeing her with a strange expression.
Snowy nights are also inexplicable.
But all this was followed out on a snowy night, when I was curious to look at the corpse that was about to be carried away.
Although there was no expression on his face, his whole mood was gloomy for a moment.
Snowy Night has never been a demonic genius who can immediately judge something when he sees something, but he sees a very familiar scene. Even if you are stupid on a snowy night, you can guess something.
All the guests in this row of rooms lined up and followed the guards, and there were probably a dozen of them.
Although everyone's face was not very obvious and angry, it was almost not good, and almost all of them felt very unlucky.
Along the way, Snowy Night kept thinking back to the picture in his mind, and to be honest, it was very familiar, familiar to the point that Snowy Night was like that. But it's just a moment, and the snow night is not very sure.
The big man who died was cut in half from the left side of his neck to the right side of his waist. The wound was smooth without pause.
Thinking of this, Xue Ye's mind couldn't help but think of the corpses all over the depths of the spider venom forest, which were too similar.
If it weren't for the fact that the Soul Eater Bead on his neck didn't look like anything unusual, Xue Ye even wanted to take it out immediately to check if there was something wrong with the bead.
"Captain, how did you say this guy died, and this splash would die there. And he died so miserably. Who did it anyway. A young guard asked curiously.
"Shut up, don't talk about this, there are some problems with this corpse, it needs to be transported back for testing to know how it died, but it seems that it should be cut by a sharp weapon in an instant, and there is not too much blood splashed on the ground, which is the most troublesome, you must know that there are many people who die or go missing in the city of fangs every year, which is not a big deal. But if this is not death at the hands of men, then everything is different, and you must not forget how the city was obtained in the first place. Every year in order to maintain this city, how many of our brothers never come back. ”
The young captain said wistfully.
"I'm sorry, Captain, I shouldn't have asked." The guard couldn't help but bow his head like a child who had made a mistake.
"There's nothing to be sorry for, if you are willing to follow me into this patrol guard, I will definitely take care of you, don't ask too much if we don't get involved, I've lost too many brothers." The captain paused and said slowly.
Xue Ye carefully observed the young captain in front of him.
After thinking about it for a long time, I suddenly understood a little, and I blamed myself for always thinking that this captain was weird, this guy must have been the first batch of pioneering members before, otherwise he wouldn't feel that this captain and his position were a little incompatible.
This makes some sense, this captain feels more oppressive than normal. At first, Snow Night thought that any guard captain in Fanged City was at this level, so it was a bit scary.
After a long time, the snowy night was still waiting for the routine inquiry, and the time was a little long and boring to look around. There are so many people who have been called here to ask about it, and the ruler of this city is so famous that he didn't expect so many people to cause trouble, but he also has a heart for almost everyone who comes here.
However, Xue Ye had no interest in challenging the order here, and from the moment he entered here, Xue Ye found that the guards here were not the same as the common soldiers outside, and the aura seemed to be much stronger, and Xue Ye seemed to be able to smell a faint smell of blood emanating from them. How long does it take to be contaminated with the smell of blood so that a person can't wash off the smell.
At this moment, a big man who seemed to be of a relatively high rank seemed to be annoyed and grabbed the collar of the official who asked him with one hand, and said viciously.
"You're telling Lao Tzu again."
This sentence has not yet fallen
I saw a dull sound.
The big man flew out upside down and hit the wooden window.
Suddenly, there was a burst of sawdust flying.
I saw a man in armor who didn't know when he appeared at the scene,
Look at the lazy queue behind you.
Immediately, everyone immediately lined up very obediently.
And the officer who was caught by the collar before looked at the man in front of him with a wry smile and said angrily.
"You guy, do it again, don't do it lightly, if you are killed, you will be trained again, and besides, I haven't finished asking yet, you kick this guy like this, I don't know if there is still a life, let alone remind him. And the cost of repairing your broken doors and windows must be counted on your head this time. ”
When the man in armor heard this, he snorted coldly and turned to leave.
