Chapter Eighty-Five: Killing

In autumn, the north wind blows across the water surface of the Wujiang River, waving waves like fine fish scales. Leons leaned against the railing on the aft deck as if chatting, but their eyes kept sweeping all directions in their sight!

What kind of generals can bring out what kind of soldiers! This does not mean that other people are not good enough, but they may be very uncomfortable to get along with!

Especially Leon, a boss who is trusted both in front of the commander and by Princess An's side!

As ambitious and self-motivated subordinates, they will definitely deliberately imitate the behavior of certain advantageous characteristics!

Although it is a little difficult to learn the advantages of the boss in front of you, or it is not difficult, but it requires perseverance! But once the time is long enough, Murphy and the others feel that they have indeed changed a lot unconsciously!

The behavior of the chief of the guard to watch and listen to all directions gradually merged into his instinct! Although he still couldn't adapt to the way he slept in clothes every day, he sometimes thought about the difficulty and danger of the task he was performing, and forced himself to do it!

The awkwardness and pain are just as awkward and painful as when you have to be cautious at the beginning of the exercise, and they are constantly circulating!

Fortunately, Leon's current subordinates are somewhat masochistic, and they always have their own way of making fun of suffering! Otherwise, they can only try to find the commander who completely ignores these things to make a small report, or transfer to the other two captains of the guard!

"Chief, I just got a reply from the letter crow, the princess and Laniel have left Eagle City last night! The deputy speaker has already informed the king after receiving the information himself!" Murphy glanced around to make sure that there was no one else, and then took out a densely written two-inch note with the seal of the deputy speaker from his bosom and handed it to Leon.

The crow is a very intelligent bird, even surpassing the carrier pigeon or other larger birds in some respects!

The letter crow is a crow that has undergone extremely strict training, as a very important biological communication tool in the entire Western Continent, and the training of the North Sang Crow is even more thorough!

It is completely impossible for the letter crows of other countries to accurately find a target passenger ship that is sailing in the river! Although this is also difficult for Bei Sanke, there are still very few letter crows that have been trained in secrecy and can do it!

As for the faster and more convenient long-wave communication methods, they also considered, but they did not trust the Maple Leaf Kingdom and the Southern Federation, which had more developed long-wave and short-wave technology!

This is also an unwritten rule of the exchange of important information in North Sanke - the ground at night belongs to the wolves, and the sky belongs to the letter crows of North Sanke!

Leon looked down at the letter, and the others continued to be wary of their surroundings!

Tomorrow morning, the eldest prince will personally pick you up at Huanxi Port?

Seeing the last sentence, Leon was stunned for a moment, and then thought of the reason why the eldest prince would come in person! It should not be just for the children!

The old Pope's death is too strange! As one of the less parties involved, Leon also found many contradictions that have not really been resolved!

The Pope was suddenly shot dead, but he was successfully killed with one blow! The former sheriff Clark was inexplicably burned to death in prison, and there was no need to participate in the "donation" incident, but it coincided with the princess's black gold!

In addition, this orphan of the Ma family, who may belong to the same Dongzhou Golden Crow Country as Heijin, but is now "assassinated" or "attempted kidnapping" on the way to Frost Snow City!

And if there's a connection?

Leon frowned slightly, could it be that the child was involved in so many things?

As an experienced royal chief of guard, Leon quickly gave the order after a short thought: "From now on, the child will be protected at the highest level!"

The other people clenched their fists and beat their chests in surprise to receive the order, don't ask what they shouldn't ask! Prudence has always been the style of the chief of the guard, and the highest vigilance is tired!

Be prepared! Be prepared!

Every time I get this kind of order, although everyone will strictly enforce it, so far there has been no danger at all comparable to the alert level!

So after learning the order, I comforted myself with this mentality every time! I was glad that there was no danger that really needed to be desperate, and I kept lamenting that the captain of the guard was so solemn every time!

Several people hurried back after discussing the detailed arrangements for each other, but Leon, who was walking at the end, seemed to hear a faint "grunt" from the stern!

Immediately turned around and ran back to the boat and looked down, there was nothing special except for the large amount of splashing foam from the oars!

Frowning slightly, maybe I think too much!

Four or five kilometers in front of the passenger ship, Paul and six or seven people were lying motionless in the bushes! A subordinate with closed eyes suddenly opened his eyes: "My lord, King Mauber already knows about the existence of the child! But because this chief guard is a mute, he can't hear the follow-up order!"

When Paul heard this, a flash of anger immediately appeared on his face!

Damn, forget about the mute Silent Flame!

Seeing the figure of the passenger ship faintly appearing on the river, he gritted his teeth violently: "No matter, act as planned immediately!"

"Yes!" the subordinate got up alone and rushed to the surface of the river quickly, and a fierce man threw himself into the water, but the splash was unexpectedly small!

The rest of the people followed Paul carefully and got up and retreated, and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye!

"Toot toot!" A series of short whistles startled all the guests! Especially Leon and the others, who had just changed into civilian clothes, knew the meaning behind this whistle - the hull of the ship was in danger!

Sure enough, in less than ten seconds, the shouts of the crew rang out outside the door: "The bottom of the boat is leaking! Everyone is wearing life jackets!

Suddenly, no matter what they were doing, all the passengers immediately rushed to find the nearest life jacket and put it on! Although most of them seemed panicked and confused, there were no stampede casualties!

The captain and others hurriedly worked together in the bilge to repair the water blockage!

Damn! The shallows have long passed! The current water depth is about 10 meters, which is the best waterway area!

"Quick, go and plug the water mouth with a few more people! Hurry! Have you fed the roasted fish in the morning! Ahhh

Just as it was roaring, more than ten meters behind the water leak, there were two muffled sounds in succession!

"Splashes of water and metal shards rise high like fountains and scatter in all directions!

Two! Two holes!

Dynamite!

Two thoughts popped up one after another in a row! I was surprised and felt a pain in my chest!

"Poof!" The tip of a knife that was different from Xizhou's weapon passed through the chest!

"Poof!" The whole body instantly went weak and fell to the ground and twitched! His eyes widened in disbelief, and before he died, he vaguely heard screams and fleeing sounds all around!

The passenger ship is quietly moored on the river, and almost all the guests are waiting!

"Kill, kill!!" A terrible scream sounded, followed by more screams of mourning and fleeing!

Leon and his entourage instantly held their knives and stood up on guard, Leon pulled Ma Shuo beside him and ordered the others: "Go to the stern!
