Lan Shuying knew that she was talking about musicians, and she also smiled.
"I'm not afraid of absenteeism, the two of us, one is missing, the other is missing with the captain after reporting the crime, isn't it normal not to go to work tomorrow?"
She looked out the window at the night, and it was still some time before dawn.
There was a place she was going to see.
β¦β¦
"You say, will there be a mechanism here, a secret room or something?"
Hayley gently closed the door to her study.
She didn't dare to step on it in the dark, just crouched behind the door to rest, brushing up on her presence in the chat room.
Lan Shuying glanced back at her, looking at her honest and obedient baby, and a strange feeling floated in her heart......
This girl, if she hadn't played with those little thoughts since the first time they first met, then it would be more natural for them to work together.
"You can sit down, you have to hurry tomorrow, I'll just look for it."
"yes, okay."
Hayley saw that she was afraid of her own bad things, but she was also happy.
It seems that the captain likes minimalist style, and it didn't take long for her to search this study, and she did find a few valuable things.
The first is a photo of him tucked away in a sticky note.
The photo has a big red cross drawn, but the face is still recognizable, and it is Milo, the gray rabbit.
And then a love letter.
There was also a faded dried rose flower in the envelope.
They're all very old.
This may be a love letter that didn't go out.
The recipient's name is more common and is called Mary.
In the letter, the captain talks to Mary about the past, from their first encounter as a child to when they grow up.
Mary was obviously engaged to someone else at that time.
And the captain hoped that she would seriously consider it.
"Consider?" Hailey was a little surprised, "Seeing that he is about to get married, he still expects people to elope with him?" β
Lan Shuying put the envelope back after reading it and said, "In the end, I didn't elope, Mary is indeed married, and the children are now in their teens." β
"You know?"
"It's not just me, you've probably heard of it." Lan Shuying smiled, "In his letter, he called Mary's fiancΓ© Harveys, and our great King His Majesty is said to be called by that name, and it is even more coincidental that ...... The queen is also called Mary. β
At the mention of the queen, the corners of Hailey's mouth twitched slightly.
"I remember, too, she cuckolded the king! The captain likes the queen, the queen likes musicians, and there is a cuckold king in the middle...... Oh, the dangerous four-cornered relationship. β
"I see the possibility that he has betrayed the king."
Lan Shuying said meaningfully.
Hayley pondered what she was saying, always feeling that something had happened that she didn't know about, but she knew that even if she asked, she wouldn't get an answer.
As for Lan Shuying, she seems to have caught one of the captain's motives for killing her.
The captain still keeps the love letter from more than ten years ago, which shows that he has never forgotten the queen in his heart.
He had a picture of Milo in his hand.
Because he sent someone to investigate, he already knew Milo's identity.
If Milo dies in the royal city, the captain, as the real murderer and a member of the sheriff's department, can easily escape by "dark under the lamp". At that time, the king will not be able to catch the real culprit, and the relationship with the baron will definitely be affected.
Lan Shuying frowned.
If the captain really had this idea, did he think that the baron would make the king pay? She didn't know much about the status of these two in the eight-tailed cat camp, so she couldn't find out.
She also thought of a possibility:
There is another hand behind the captain, and he is just acting on orders! Well, the purpose is ......
Hailey combed the fluff and said, "Speaking of betrayal, on the day of the Orange Festival, the captain was in charge of patrolling, and it happened that there was an assassination on that day. I think the Assassin was able to cause trouble in the crowd, maybe this guy deliberately released the water. β
Lan Shuying agreed with this idea.
"The king himself didn't show up from beginning to end, he died just an impostor." She paused, "I asked the inhabitants of the royal city, in the past, every time the orange festival, the king would give a public speech, before parading through the streets. β
Hayley continued, "Not this year. β
"Well, this shows that the king has received the news, and he wants to use the opportunity to deal with the assassins in one fell swoop."
Hayley thought for a while: "So, the captain is in collusion with that Circus of Fate!" Last time they tried to assassinate the king but didn't succeed, and now he is specifically picking on people who walk at night, is it to create a riot......? β
Lan Shuying was silent.
She thought to herself, if the captain succeeded today, it would be the baron's precious only son who died......
The baron is again working at the headquarters of the eight-tailed cat company, and the news may even reach the company's top management.
Alarm the eight-tailed cat, the king will be in chaos, and the royal city will be even more chaotic.
Lan Shuying carefully inspected all the drawers and dark layers of the captain's desk, and picked up the third harvest:
A violet velvet pocket!
She fell lightly, rolling out a round thing with a small handle.
Hayley listened to the movement over there, and her heart itched.
"What did you find fun?"
Lan Shuying looked at it over and over again, and said, "A seal, the pattern is a clown." β
Silence for two seconds.
The two said in unison: "Circus! β
β¦β¦
Speaking of which, the grievances between the Circus of Fate and the King, or the relationship between the captain and the King, which is a fake surrender and real revenge, is actually none of their business.
The lighter box is in hand.
The soldier was trapped in the soup shop and couldn't get out.
This fairy tale plot will be shattered.
And a more critical point:
The time limit for the invisibility cloak is running out.
Before it expired, Lan Shuying had to rush to the Witch of the Wilderness lest she be blacklisted as a witchβshe wanted to get more cloak of invisibility.
The two rabbits sneaked out of the captain's house.
They didn't say goodbye to the musicians.
This side had just left the royal city, and had not gone far, when a strong tremor was heard from the ground, as if a cavalry team was hurrying over.
Lan Shuying had a bad premonition and signaled Hailey to hide!
Eventually, they each climbed a tree.
Soon, the cavalry came.
They even had hounds with them!
A few dogs ran and stopped to sniff, and finally stopped under the tree and barked incessantly.
The cavalry at the head jumped off their horses, looked at the canopy overhead, and pulled out a smile on their thin lips.
"Guests on the tree, don't be nervous, we are the royal escort directly under His Majesty the King, and we have come to protect you in accordance with His Majesty's orders!"
Lan Shuying stared at the dark infrared jacket in the cavalry's hand.
That's what she changed yesterday, and before she went to the bar, she handed over her clothes to the laundry room, and they ended up in the hands of the guards.
These people are chasing after the taste.
The reason is, to protect them?
The cavalry also said: "Your Majesty also said that both the Chamber of Commerce and Baron Lawne are eternal friends of the royal city, and Your Majesty invites the two of you to come into the palace to meet, and there is no need to worry about security here." β
After speaking, he held his sword and took a posture of "I won't leave until you come down".
