Chapter Ninety-Six: The Murder Conspiracy

With each step she took, she brought a splash of water under her feet, and under the cover of night and torrential rain, she approached the house in front of her, and after a flash of lightning and thunder, the lightning briefly illuminated the mist-obscured sect, and three powerful fonts were engraved on it: Gendarmerie.

That's right, the target of the assassination given by the Marquis of Charles was none other than the three new gendarmes who appeared at the banquet tonight!

The reason is very simple, these three gendarmes have in their hands the evidence of the Marquis Charles and a large number of consuls of Dawn City at the banquet, and this evidence must not be passed on to the center of the Republic, otherwise the entire administrative system of Dawn City will be greatly changed.

If you change to the previous gendarmes, let's not say whether they will come to the surprise inspection without saying hello, even if they find out, they will definitely turn a blind eye after collecting something, everyone gets along harmoniously, and they are happy, you help me once today, I will help you once tomorrow, there is no need to feel uncomfortable.

But the three new gendarmes, whether they are out of their own performance considerations, or really upright and have the world in mind, they will definitely not give up after they get the evidence of the crime, and the three of them have just taken office, they are aggressive, they don't eat hard and soft, and it is impossible to make any deal with the Marquis's Mansion, so it is almost a sure thing for them to hand over the evidence of the crime.

Then, if you want things not to be exposed, there is only one way left for Marquis Charles: kill people and destroy evidence! There is no other way!

Moonblade stood indifferently in front of the gendarmerie house, and the order she received this time was to eliminate the three gendarmes, and then bring back the law enforcement cameras in their hands for the Marquis of Charles to destroy himself.

Moonblade could do anything to survive, to find the truth about the family's annihilation, and to kill three gendarmes who had nothing to do with her had no psychological burden at all, she looked at the circular building, wondering which window to climb into.

At this moment, Moon Blade suddenly noticed that something was wrong, it stands to reason that the gendarmerie has the evidence of the real hammer, and it should be sorted out overnight tonight, but she found that the house of the gendarmerie was blinded by a black light, is this already asleep and resting?

Moonblade didn't pay much attention to it, and just as she searched for a window that she could climb into, a detail shocked her, it turned out that the wooden door of the gendarmerie was not locked, but hidden!

Moonblade swallowed her throat, she shouldn't have stepped forward to investigate in the face of this strange situation, but at this time, the other windows were closed, and there was no entrance to sneak into, even if the hidden wooden door revealed a smell of traps, she could only step on it.

The movement of the moon blade was very light and slow, and it slowly pushed the wooden door open a gap for her to squeeze into, and this kind of wooden door should have a grinding creak when it was pushed open, but at this time, it was raining rain, thunder roared, and such a slight sound had long been buried in the rainy night.

The inside of the gendarmerie was the same as what she saw outside, there was no light, the black lights blinded the fire, and the moon blade had no eyes for evolved night vision, and if it weren't for the occasional thunderclap that illuminated the interior of the house, she couldn't figure out the direction at all.

Through the lightning in the night sky, the moon blade could see that some boxes that had been sealed were messily placed in the room, and some of them had not had time to be sealed, and they could vaguely see the cigarettes, alcohol and a large amount of cash inside, which should have been bribed by the Marquis Charles before the former gendarmes, and now they were seized by the new gendarmes as incriminating evidence and ready to be sent to the center of the Republic.

The Moon Blade ignored these extremely precious things in the apocalypse, firstly, she had no place to put it, and besides, this mission was too important, Marquis Charles had already said that completing the task would give her freedom, which meant that she could officially embark on the road of revenge, find the truth about the destruction of the door back then, and slash the enemy!

Thinking of this, the extreme eagerness and excitement even made Moonblade's breathing hot and heavy, and she quickened her pace to walk inside, her water-soaked cloth shoes on the floor and the sound of seeping water, but they were all hidden in the thunder and torrential rain outside the house.

Moonblade fumbled cautiously in the dark, and when she had searched the first floor, she found that there was no one and no bedrooms on the first floor, so she continued her search to the second floor.

On the way to groping, the moon blade found the direction of the bedroom, she took off the wet shoes on her feet, and walked barefoot in the direction of the bedroom, the soft feet were like the cat's meat pads, at this time there was no sound, two sharp long knives followed the master and slowly probed into the bedroom, like two poisonous snakes drilling through the gap.

Moonblade's eyes had become accustomed to her long time in the dark, and she could see people lying on all three beds in her bedroom.

Because he didn't know the strength of the three gendarmes, it was best to assassinate them in a dream, and the Moon Blade simply estimated the distance between the three beds, and after many battle simulations in his mind, he chose an optimal plan, and silently walked towards the leftmost bed.

When Moonblade raised his knife in front of the bed, about to chop off the head of the figure on the bed, a dragon-like lightning suddenly crossed the night sky outside the window, and its brightness was so powerful in an instant, almost dotting the world as bright as day.

Xue Liang's blade had already fallen in the air, but the moment the house was illuminated, the knife in the hand of the moon blade stopped in the air, just one centimeter away from the neck of the person on the bed, and stopped moving like a statue.

The reason why the Moon Blade retracted the blade when she was about to take the opponent's head was not because she was frightened by the thunder in the night sky, but because the thunder lit up the room, and in that moment, she could see the situation in the room clearly, and also the person on the bed...

Is it the new gendarme lying on the bed? Be!

But... It's the corpse...

At the moment when the thunder and lightning lit up the world just now, Moon Blade was shocked to find that the gendarme, who was "sleeping" on the bed, could never wake up, his eyes were round and turned up, and there was no longer any color of life, and there was a half-foot-deep slash mark on his throat, and this slash was extremely accurate, splitting the gendarme's larynx at an extremely tricky angle, but it did not hurt the neck artery, so there was no blood flowing out at all.

Moon Blade felt a chill in her heart, looking at this corpse, she inexplicably had a strange sense of fear, at this moment, she no longer ignored the concealment, quickly groped on the wall of the room, and finally touched the switch of the top light, and turned it on without hesitation.

The scene in front of him made the moon blade completely stunned, only to see that the three gendarmes lying on the three beds had already become corpses, and the cause of death was all a sharp slash in front of the throat, and judging from the skin and lips that had not yet faded from the blood, the time of death did not exceed half an hour, and it may even have died ten minutes ago!

Who killed these gendarmes? Why kill them? In Moonblade's opinion, the only people who had the motive to kill the gendarmes were the nobles who participated in the banquet like the Marquis of Charles, and it was because of this that he was sent here that he was sent here, why did the three gendarmes die before they did it? If it was the Marquis of Charles who did it early, then why did he send her?

At the moment when Moonblade was confused, what happened next gave her the answer...

...
