Chapter 35: The Family Meeting. First (4)
At the moment when the law enforcement captain let go of his body and exposed himself in front of Ye Qi, the city guard captain's cheeks twitched involuntarily, and his eyes were full of resentment when he looked at the law enforcement team captain—if possible, he would also take out the long sword and pistol on his waist, and open a few transparent blood holes in the law enforcement captain's body-
Compared to the captain of the city guards, the private soldier from the Dick family was undoubtedly much calmer - he first tidied up his clothes, and then walked up to Ye Qi, and saluted respectfully through the iron gate: "The captain of the second team of the pro-soldiers has seen it, Feith. Lord Dick! ”
Unlike the news that the law enforcement captain was as backward as the captain, as early as two weeks ago, the captain of the pro-soldier team had heard the news that the eldest lady of his family had allowed the other party to return to the family; And it is precisely because of this that the captain of the pro-soldier team will have the same 'calm' performance as before he came - before he came, he didn't know which house the captain of the Ludao Law Enforcement Team was going to search, but because of the order given by his eldest lady last night, 'pay attention to any changes in the Red Leaf City about searches, inspections, etc., and protect the interests of the family', so he followed the other party to the courtyard where Faith lived.
And at the moment when he saw the name on the courtyard and the door number, thinking of the order issued by the eldest lady last night, the captain of the pro-soldier team knew what was going on, and he also knew what he should do at the moment - above the family, but the iron law pursued by every family in the Qiulin District, this pro-soldier captain is naturally no exception; Even, he is ready to protect the interests of his family; It's just that what he didn't expect was that Feith, who had only heard of it, would behave like this, suppressing everyone just by relying on momentum.
Unlike the law enforcement team, which is obviously legalized and does not need to highlight personal strength, the pro-soldiers of each family, who are called private soldiers by the outside world, are selected for the first reason in addition to loyalty, which is strength; And to be able to become the captain of these people, there is naturally no doubt about the strength, and their strength is not inferior to that of the Xingzhao Intermediate Apostle among the Demon Hunters - this is not a rumor, but a reality; You must know that most of the demon hunters in the Dao are used to wandering around, and it is not too difficult to try it out.
And this pro-soldier captain was able to obtain the family's affirmation and get his current position because of the competition with an apostle whose strength had reached the intermediate level of Xingzhao-therefore, when he was affected by this momentum, the pro-soldier captain immediately had a new understanding of the lord in front of him who had just returned to the family: except for the eldest lady, he definitely surpassed all the older generations in the family, even compared with those old people, it was not inferior!
Obviously, as long as such a powerful young man returns to the family, the future is bright!
And as one of the ten pro-soldier captains of the family, even if he doesn't think about the future, he naturally has to show due respect - the strong are worthy of respect, whether it is in the Demon Hunter Guild or in various families, it is the same; The Holy See is no exception to the Supreme Government.
"Mr. Captain, is it really what this gentleman said?"
also nodded slightly, but this time the corners of Ye Qi's mouth were obviously upturned, outlining a subtle smile - playing Feith, facing 'his own people' who are not as good as himself, but have a certain status, this kind of subtle smile is undoubtedly the most appropriate; And the more respectful demeanor of the captain of the pro-soldier undoubtedly proves that he performed very well.
"Yes, Your Excellency!" The captain of the pro-soldier said truthfully: "Miss Ellaro did disappear three days ago, and her whereabouts are still unknown, the eldest lady is very anxious, and ordered us to search the whole city, and the city guards and law enforcement team also cooperated!" But ......" The captain of the pro-soldier who said this paused, and immediately made the heart of the captain of the law enforcement who was listening to it sink, and a premonition of bad luck rose, and he stared at the captain of the pro-soldier deadly, with a hint of pleading in his fierce eyes; Smiling slightly, ignoring the eyes of the law enforcement captain, the pro-soldier captain continued: "Our Dick family personnel are not within the scope of this search; So ......"...,
"Your Excellency, I didn't know that you were from the Dick family......"
The captain of the law enforcement immediately interrupted the words of the captain of the pro-soldiers, and he knew that if he allowed the other party to continue, his end would be extremely unfavorable; He looked at Ye Qi, bent down, and explained respectfully and anxiously; The next moment, however, his explanation came to an abrupt halt - the captain of the army stretched out his hand and pointed to the coat of arms representing the Dick family on the large iron gate of the courtyard; Looking at the black badge mixed with red, the face of the law enforcement captain turned pale instantly, and he knew that he was wandan.
Before, before coming to the manor, of course, he had seen the coat of arms of the Dick family, but at that time he had already been so anxious by the promise of the previous big man that he wanted to search the whole house at once, and then bring the owner back to the law enforcement office on a trumped-up charge, so that he could get the reward promised by the big man—everything was so good, and even before he had planned how to use this reward to raise his status to the next level; After all, in his eyes before, the other party was just an abandoned son abandoned by the family, although he still retained a certain ability, but the other party who lost the honor of the family was not worth mentioning at all in his opinion!
However, with the appearance of the other party, he realized that he was wrong, one wrong step, one wrong step, especially after hearing the captain of the pro-soldier say that the other party had returned to the Dick family, he realized how outrageous and unforgivable this mistake was - glanced at the pale and trance-eyed law enforcement captain, and then looked at the respectful pro-soldier captain and the captain of the city guard who seemed to be invisible and looked like a visitor from beginning to end, Ye Qi said to the pro-soldier captain, "I'll leave it to you!" He didn't bother to look at it again, and turned straight into the house.
"Adult ......"
Looking at the back of Ye Qi who was far away, the law enforcement captain immediately rushed to the iron gate, held the thumb-thick fence on the gate with both hands, and begged for mercy loudly; It's a pity that he had just spoken, and before he could even spit out his voice, he was interrupted by the captain of the pro-soldier who had a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth - a precise hand knife hit the neck of the law enforcement captain, and after watching the other party faint, the pro-soldier captain glanced at his subordinates behind him, and suddenly the two pro-soldiers came up and dragged the law enforcement captain down; During this period, both the city guards and the law enforcement team members stood still and did not move.
In this city where everything is dominated by aristocrats and all existence serves nobles, Ye Qi, who is a nobleman, is undoubtedly not to be offended by them; Especially after Ye Qi showed extraordinary strength, this kind of non-offense has risen to the point of being unquestionable.
The captain of the pro-soldier nodded to the captain of the city guard beside him, and after the other party returned the salute, he left quickly-although the two had a good personal relationship, it was obvious that now was not the time to make a friendship, and he needed to send that idiot into the family dungeon; and hastened to tell the eldest lady everything that had happened here; Although he couldn't guess the eldest lady's order, since there was a situation that matched the eldest lady's order, then it was enough, and all he needed to do now was to complete the eldest lady's order and kill all those who dared to go against the Dick family.
Family honor, above all else.
Looking at the back of the pro-soldier captain with a gloomy face and a murderous aura all over his body, the captain of the city guard waved his hand to the subordinates behind him, and walked towards the city guard station at the same speed - the three people, both of them are gone, what is the point of him staying? Moreover, what happened here must be reported to his head, the real steward of the city guard; If he had been a minute late, and his head had learned the news from other sources, he would have been reprimanded again; After thinking about his reprimand, the pace of the captain of the city guard suddenly sped up by two points again! …,
With the departure of the city guards, the courtyard gate, which had been lively before, quickly returned to calm; However, this calm did not last long, and it was only ten minutes later that it became lively again—looking at the gate of the courtyard, the merchants living in the inner city stood together and exchanged ears, speculating about what had happened before; And in this whispered inquiry, one or two people who had seen the whole thing through the curtains before immediately triumphantly told everything they had seen before; Of course, it is inevitable to add oil and vinegar, and it is this addition of oil and vinegar that makes the crowd exclaim, and at the same time the eyes looking at the courtyard gate are becoming more and more respectful and fearful, and even to the end of the day, many people are still far away from the courtyard gate when leaving, and this behavior is undoubtedly expanding rapidly.
Rumors are always the fastest spreading existence, because it can satisfy everyone's 'inquiry' and 'inferiority' psychology, it can be said that under the impetus of the inferior nature of human beings, even the so-called gods have to retreat, especially in the Autumn Forest District, which is itself in a kind of artificial closure, the monarch is centralized, once some rumors cannot be contained at the beginning, then when it spreads, its influence will surprise everyone - and obviously, the meeting of various families is held in Red Leaf City because of that solar-level holy artifact, All the families had their eyes on the Solar-level holy weapon, and when the protagonist of the rumor was a member of the Dick family, the other families were very 'wise' to choose the 'everything to be resolved' during the family meeting, after all, in the face of the 'attack' excuse sent by the other party, how could they not laugh at it?
Of course, not everyone has such patience!
