Chapter 286: The Order: Betrayal

Tang Tu wandered around the building for a while and found nothing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He quickly realized that it might be that he was moving too fast, and the follow-up plot could only unfold after Galahat and other NPCs entered the place.

So, Tang Tu found a room and went in, opened the window and climbed out, and climbed up the roof along the wall.

Tang Tu was condescending, holding a telescope and looking at the battle situation below.

Galahat and the others had already alarmed the guards in the garden, but fortunately they were using crossbows instead of firearms, so they had not alarmed the guards in the house yet.

Galahat appears to have split up with Lucan, with Galahat with the rebels.

After a while, Galahat finally entered the building.

Tang Tu climbed down the wall, sneaked back into the building from the room he came out of, hid in the dark, and quietly groped his way forward, he planned to find Galahat first, and then secretly follow them.

Tang Tu was from top to bottom, and Galahat and the others were from bottom to top, and when Tang Tu found them, he found that Galahat and the others were facing each other in a corridor.

The confrontation was between Lucan and the rebels, and Galahat was caught in the middle.

"Lucan, don't fire! This is Lanny. Lakshmi. White, the leader of the rebels. Galahat said.

"She's your ally? Are you delirious? Lucan said.

"I have the same question." Lanny said.

"I'd think you tricked me into a rebel ambush." Lucan said.

"I'm also worried that I'll be arrested." Lanny said.

"We don't have time. We needed help, and she was the only person I could rely on. Galahat said.

"It's crazy! This would endanger the entire Order. Lucan said.

"Lucan, you have to trust me. You want to see the evidence, don't you? She was also in Blackwald at the time, and she was with me to witness the discovery. Galahat said.

"You're saying you helped her destroy the docks of the United Indian Company, and she took advantage of you." Lucan said.

"She was the one who made me aware of the conspiracy, and that we need her help if we want to get it done." Galahat said.

"What if you're wrong?" Lucan said.

"Then both she and I must take responsibility for our actions and bear all the consequences." Galahat said.

"Just like Mallory?" Lucan said.

"Yes."

Galahat finally convinces Lucan and the rebels, and together they infiltrate the archives.

"Look for any documents that can prove that the Indian joint company is related to mixed people, waybills, bills of lading, sea waybills, requisitions, etc."

Tang Tu had been following them, and because Galahat and the others had closed the door after entering the archive room, Tang Tu had no choice but to sneak into the next room, and then climb through the next window to the balcony of the archive room and hide.

Tang Tu did not enter the house, but hid on the balcony to observe.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed, his movements were very fast, almost silent, and the people in the room did not notice it, but Tang Tu, who was outside, noticed it.

Tang Tu wanted to remind Galahat and the others, but he hesitated and took out something from his arms.

This thing is called a "camera", and it is a rudimentary version of the camera designed by Tesla. Limited by the technology of the times, the frame rate of this camera is very low, and the image is not very clear, but it is still enough to record the picture.

The shadow hid behind the desk, its posture suggesting that it was not a normal human. Suddenly, it lunged out from behind the table, crushing one of the rebels under it.

This time there was no small movement, and Galahat and the others turned around with their guns in their hands and surrounded the beast in the middle.

It's a vampire, and it's noticeably different from a werewolf.

Under the gaze of everyone, it slowly turned into a human form, and it turned out to be Hastings.

If Tang Tu was in the house at this time, he would definitely not hesitate to attack Hastings until he killed him, but at the moment there was a group of NPCs in the house, so no one shot him.

Hastings, who had regained his human form, calmly took a robe from the hanger next to him and put it on, the dress fit well, it was obviously his clothes.

Galahat's face was shocked, "Lord Hastings! Although I had already believed the rebels' words, I was still shocked to see them with my own eyes.

"Believe me now, he's behind it all." Lannie was equally excited.

"Killing spree in Whitechapel, mixed race disaster, all you?" Gallaha's idiosyncrasy asked Hastings.

"In the Lower Jacob. Fan. Neck, you can also call me 'Jack the Ripper', following the example of the Fleet Street booklet, please advise. Hastings said nonchalantly as he sat on the couch.

Lucan took a few steps forward, and Hastings looked at him with a smile.

"Sir Lucan, thank you for sending these nosy men." Hastings said.

Lucan glanced at Galahat, then at Hastings and said, "Don't let us down. ”

"You—" Galahat looked at Lucan in shock.

"Good luck, isn't it? Sir Galahat, when he caught the leader of the rebels, he also revealed the identity of the traitor, killing two birds with one stone..."said Hastings, "of course, I am talking about you as a traitor. ”

"Lucan, you?!" Galahat still doesn't seem to believe that the betrayer is Lucan.

Tang Tu watched this scene outside the window, and he also felt very incredible. He had doubted Parsifal and the Prime Minister, but he had not doubted Lucan.

"Forgive me, brother," said Lucan, "but I must take care of my kindred first. ”

"Your kindred? Werewolf? Bloodsucker? Galahat asked incredulously.

Instead of answering him, Lucan winked at Hastings. Hastings immediately got up and ran to the window.

Lannie reacted quickly, immediately throwing the dagger in her hand and stabbing Hastings. Another rebel took the opportunity to block Hastings' way.

However, Lucan suddenly hugged Galahat, and the two scuffled.

The scene was chaotic, and at some point, Galahat had an extra dagger in his hand and stabbed Luken in the waist. Stimulated by the injury, Lucan's body began to deform, and he was actually a werewolf.

Luken had the upper hand after turning into a werewolf, and at such a close distance, Galahat had no chance to use his firearms, and his dagger was snatched by Lucan.

Hastings has also become a vampire at this point, and Lannie and another rebel don't seem to be his opponents.

The situation took a turn for the worse, and just then, there was a knock on the door outside the reference room.

"In the name of the law, open the door!" This is Lafayette's voice.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lannie nodded to the other rebel, and the two rushed out of the window. Lucan reverted to his human form, threw the dagger to the side, turned and jumped out of the window.

The only people left at the scene were Galahat, who was injured and fell to the ground, and Hastings, who was also injured when he returned to his human form.

The door was kicked open, and Iglain and Lafayette walked in from the outside, Iglain's gun pointed at Galahat, and Lafayette looked confused and helpless.

Galahat barely managed to get up from the ground.

"Galahat, stop!" Igrein's gun was aimed at Galahat.

"Wait, I can explain..."

"I told you not to move!"

Igrein interrupted Galahat.

Hastings walked over with the dagger with which Lenny had stabbed him.

"You have come just in time when Sir Galahat and a group of filthy rebels have barged in and tried to murder me." Hastings complained.

"It's a lie." Galahat again tried to justify.

Hastings tossed the dagger at Galahat's feet.

"Look at the damage they have done to me, Sir Galahat's accomplice is a woman... That is, the leader of the rebels. She's escaped now, but she can't hide for the rest of her life. ”

"The Knights will hunt down the rebel leaders," Igrein seemed to believe Hastings.

"Listen to me, Xiao Yi, you've made a big mistake," said Galahat.

"Sir Lafayette," Igrein interrupted Galahat again, "arrest the intruder. ”

Lafayette looked helpless and walked up behind Galahat and handcuffed him.

Galahat said apologetically, "I'm sorry to put you in a dilemma, Marquis. ”

When Tang Tu saw this, he put away the picture instrument, and secretly left here at night, returning to the Palace of Westminster.

Tang Tu was thinking.

The head of the Knights is a werewolf, so who else can be trusted in the Knights? Igrein, who should have trusted Galahat, is unusual, and the prime minister, who is already suspicious, these three people are a family, aren't they...

Tang Tu took a breath and went directly to Tesla's underground laboratory.

"Mr. Tesla, can I trust you?"

"What? What are you talking about? ”

"I have something to show you..."

Tang Tu decided to believe Tesla, and as a famous inventor, Tesla could never be a werewolf or a vampire.

The fact that the camera recorded everything that happened at the headquarters of the United Corporation of India tonight is the most direct evidence. However, because Tang Tu didn't know who the knights could trust, he could only hide the evidence for the time being.

"Mr. Tesla, you know the truth now, but for our safety, I can't hand over this evidence, I hope you can keep it." Tang Tu said.

"Thank you for trusting me," Tesla said, "what are you going to do next?" This evidence could prove Mr. Galahat's innocence. ”

"Yes, but the head of the regiment is a werewolf, and who can guarantee that the prime minister is not? Don't tell anyone about this just yet, I'm going to think about it. If... If something happens to me, you give this evidence to Mr. Lafayette. Tang Tu said.

Thinking about it, Tang Tu felt that Lafayette was still credible, but Igrein was not.

Coming out of the underground laboratory, Tang Tu came to the hall of the Palace of Westminster, and Lafayette came up to him and said, "You are here, you have a meeting in the council chamber." ”

Tang Tu pretended to be confused, "What's wrong?" ”

Lafrenière's face was deep, "Lord Galahat... Something happened to him. ”

"Something about the night? Didn't you go with Igrein, and Lord Lucan? Tang Tu asked.

Lafrenière didn't say anything more, his face was very ugly.

Tang Tu could see that Lafayette believed in Galahat more than Igrein, but because of his lack of seniority in the Knights, he could only obey Igrein.

In the council hall, all the knights were seated, and Tang Tu was also sitting among them.

The Prime Minister stood on the stage and gushed about Galahat's crimes.

”... The accused was charged with heinous crimes, and Sir Galahat betrayed the trust of our ancient people. Not only that, but he even formed a party with the lawless rebels.

He was so guilty that he even intended to take the life of his esteemed courtier, Lord Hastings. Galahat is a shoddy traitor, he has no honor and is unscrupulous. I ask Parliament to punish him with death. ”

"Allow me to speak," said Lucan, standing up, "and please do not forget Sir Galahat's contribution to the Order over the centuries, and perhaps our knightly brothers still have hope for redemption and can regain the path of justice." ”

"The Knights are too forgiving," snapped the Prime Minister, "and the traitor's guilt has been proven. ”

Tang Tu swept around the other knights and found that the others didn't seem to be going to say anything, so he stood up and said, "Please allow me to speak, although I have only recently joined the Knights. Sir Galahat is my mentor, and I find it hard to believe that he would betray the Order. May I ask the Prime Minister, what evidence did you say was conclusive about his crimes? Can you show it to all of us? ”

"Evidence? Ms. Igrein and Lafayette personally arrested Galahat, both witnesses. The Prime Minister said.

"So, Lady Igrein and Mr. Lafayette, have you seen Sir Galahat assassinate Lord Hastings? If you see it with your own eyes, then I'm curious, why can you see it? Is it a coincidence? Tang Tu asked.

Igrein looked at Tang Tu, "Are you suspicious of us?" ”

"Oh no, don't get me wrong, ma'am, I just wanted to ask, after all, we're judging our brother right now. Although we cannot let go of the betrayer, we cannot let our brothers suffer unjustly. Tang Tu said.

Lafayette looked up and said, "We did not see with our own eyes, but when we arrived, Sir Galahat and Lord Hastings were wounded, and it was Lord Hastings who told us that he had assassinated him with the rebels. ”

"So, the two of you didn't see Sir Galahatt assassinate Lord Hastings, nor did they see him with the rebels, and these charges are all on the side of Lord Hastings?" Tang Tu asked.

"Yes." Lafayette said.

"Can you tell us why you're at the headquarters of the Indian United Company?" Tang Tu looked at Eagle Rhine and asked.

There's a gleam in Igrein's eyes, "Why are you asking this, it's not about Sir Galahat. ”

"How is it irrelevant? As far as I know, Sir Lucan and Sir Galahat decided to go with them because they knew they were going to the United Company of India, didn't they? Tang Tu asked.

Igrein did not answer, but Lafayette replied, "Yes, we heard them say that, so we followed." ”

"So, I ask Sir Lucan," Tang Tu looked at Lucan, "where were you?" With Sir Galahat? (To be continued.) )
