The inauguration ceremony of the new lord, who gathered more than 90 percent of the citizens of Bay City, came to an abrupt end at the beginning of the ceremony, and the lord of Bay City, Alan Chrissy, was shot by the assassins after he was only able to show his face, and his fate is currently unknown.

Most of the people are panicked about this, of course, they are not the result of the assassination of the panic lord - Allen, who is the second young master of Reef City, an important city in the south of the empire, is not a cat or a dog, and if this incident causes the suppression of Reef City, then Bay City will be sad.

Some people in the territory are very worried about this, but ordinary citizens who think about it so deeply.

They just empathize.

Assassins are so unscrupulous, and dignified lords are assassinated so easily, what if they are ordinary people?

Although Bay City has not been very good for some reason, it is only secret, and there has never been such an incident in front of the public before.

And they saw it with their own eyes.

This is the most important thing, if you hear this kind of news, it is at most a little talk after dinner, and most people will not pay too much attention to it, after all, this kind of thing is still very far away in the subjective consciousness of ordinary people, but now it is different.

Countless people witnessed the assassination of the lord, and under the protection of countless elite guards, under their gaze, the new lord was shot to the ground by the assassins!

Although there was no news of the death of the lord in Pochi Castle, the Assassin's ability to harvest anyone's life without difficulty made the citizens fearful.

As a result, the issue of law and order in Bay City has been discussed on a large scale for the first time. There was a lot of talk about this, and under the deliberate instigation of some people, the spearhead was pointed at Carter, the city defense officer in charge of law and order.

In the past, the security in Bay City was not very good, and the people certainly did not have a good impression of Carter, who was in charge of law and order, and coupled with this assassination incident, many people were extremely skeptical of Carter's ability.

As a result, every time Carter appeared during this time, he was secretly pointed at, and in the end, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply didn't show up.

He regretted a little that he had connived at the Black Hand Pirate's plan this time, but this regret was only a little.

As the black hand said, although the lord is still unconscious, there is news from the castle that the second young master of Reef City is not worried about his life, but is only temporarily unconscious due to excessive bleeding.

This made him breathe a sigh of relief. As long as he didn't die here, Reef City shouldn't have investigated this matter thoroughly.

In addition, the assassin had been smoothly transferred out by him, and as long as the boss of the Black Hand Pirate Group did not reveal this matter, it was impossible for anyone else to know that he was involved in this matter. When the young lord woke up and wanted to check, he couldn't find anything at all.

So Carter, while annoyed by some of the rumors in Bay City, was limited to that.

He pondered that during this time, as long as he took care of law and order, cleaned up the slums and the thugs who were making chaos in the slums and diverted their attention, it wouldn't be long before this wind passed.

It's a pity that he just thinks about it.

When a group of soldiers from Poch Castle broke into his house, Carter's heart sank.

"Ordered to investigate Lord Allen's assassination, we suspect you of collusion with that assassin, Mr. Carter, please come with us!"

Allen's head of the guard, Knight Kyle of Reef City, looked at Carter coldly.

——

At this time, in the study on the third floor of Pochi Castle, Alan, who was considered unconscious by countless people, was now leaning on the recliner with a leisurely face, leisurely looking at a book.

Neatly dressed and full of energy, he did not look like he had been attacked by the Assassins.

The other person in the study looked at Alan with a strange expression, and his tone was still disdainful: "Boy, what kind of bitter tricks to get rid of your poor subordinate, don't you have a troubled conscience?" ”

Mr. Raphael, who has been in the red light district all the year round, is very well-informed, and he came to the castle immediately after Allen's "assassination" that day, for fear that he would have a bad luck with the fat sheep he had finally found, but when he came in, he found that Alan had nothing to do at all, and he knew the truth.

Alan didn't care about Raphael's obvious deliberate disdain, waved his hand and said: "No way, Carter is too power-hungry, he looks at the 1,000 militia in Bay City more strictly than his wife, and he doesn't cooperate much with my top boss, so I have no choice but to take him down." ”

Raphael pouted: "Then you can just do it, what kind of bitter tricks do you have? You said that he is your subordinate, don't you have the final say on what you want? As for this extra move?"

"It seems that you don't know everything, either. Alan smiled.

During this time, he received daily training in magic from Raphael, and had a relatively sound understanding of the current gestures, spells, and classification of magic in the wizarding world. And for Raphael, who taught him magic knowledge, he also admired it from the bottom of his heart.

Knowledgeable and wide-ranging, although there are some special habits that are shameful, but in general it is enough to be called a knowledgeable and talented senior in the mage world.

Also because Raphael's personality is not so serious, Alan will sometimes make fun of him a few words, such as his unique hobbies, such as now.

"If I move him directly, it will inevitably cause criticism from the militia in Bay City, Carter is not very good in the eyes of ordinary people, but he is a good leader in the eyes of that group of militiamen. ”

Alan explained.

Then there is the inheritance of the traditions of the ancient civilization of the previous life, he thinks that to do this kind of thing, there must be a teacher who is famous, otherwise wouldn't he seem to be very mediocre?

You know, there is no reasonable reason to take Carter, and it will not only cause controversy within the militia, but his current subordinates will also be muttering.

Although he is not very controlled, on the surface, Carter is still his subordinate, and if he is removed for no reason, what will others think?

So Allen took the opportunity of the inauguration ceremony to play a bitter trick.

Although the means are not very bright, but they can quickly achieve their goals, Alan doesn't care about these.

Besides, as far as he knew, Carter wasn't a good guy. Using some means against him, Alan didn't have any worries.

"So what are you going to do with him?" asked Raphael.

Alan thought for a moment and said, "Well, remove him, and then transfer him to Reef City to find an idle position." ”

He didn't want to do things absolutely, using some not-so-bright means is one thing, killing innocents indiscriminately is another, although he is tired of Carter's past non-cooperation, but he is not tired of killing people.

Alan thought so, and Raphael nodded, agreeing with Allen's disposition. However, when Knight Kyle, the head of the guard, came to report, Alan couldn't help but dismiss this plan.

"You're saying that there was not only a fake assassin we arranged in the crowd that day, but also a real assassin?"

Alan blinked, a little unresponsive.

"Yes. Kyle nodded, and said with a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, our people made a move in advance, otherwise Young Master Allen, you are afraid that you would really be in danger." ”

Kyle had to rejoice, as one of the few people who knew about Allen's plan, Kyle and his guards were very amateurish in their defense that day, and in order to cooperate with the "assassin" attack, they could not put on a strict defensive appearance.

But now that I think about it, if it wasn't for the fake assassin who took the lead at that time, leaving the real assassin with nowhere to start, I'm afraid that because of their defensive loopholes, Young Master Allen would really face the situation of being assassinated.

At that time, he really regretted being Allen's chief bodyguard.

Alan didn't have much to fear about it, he just had a feeling of being ridiculous.

This is still discussing with others that the means of framing are not very bright, and there is a "fake show" on that side. ”

"It was a dramatic scene. Raphael in the study didn't know what to say.

Alan didn't answer, he suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "By the way, how did you find this?".

Because of the existence of fake assassins, the capture of Carter is actually just a formality, and it will not involve torture or anything.

Kyle replied with a strange expression, "He thought we had discovered his crimes, so we didn't interrogate him much in order to get a lighter sentence, so we said everything." ”

Kyle Knight seems to have forgotten how misleading Carter was by deliberately saying something he wanted to make Carter realize the seriousness of the matter, and he now only thinks that Carter is really an idiot.

Alan was also speechless about this, he was a little skeptical that Carter was so simple-minded and how he became a city defense officer.

It can only be said that because of various misunderstandings, Carter is currently very hard, whether it is his condition or reputation.

"Why did those pirates assassinate me? I didn't provoke them, it didn't do them any good, did it?"

Alan was a little puzzled.

Kyle replied, "He said the pirates got revenge because the patrol captured their members, and that you took their protection money..."

Allen: "......"

It seems that a group of businessmen are sending money to themselves, and it seems that there is a lot of it?

It's just that this kind of thing has always been the responsibility of Rowan and the housekeeper, and he generally doesn't pay much attention to it, so he didn't expect to cause some trouble.

Shaking his head, Alan didn't pay much attention to it.

At that time, I thought that the money was given away for free, but who knew that there was such a thing as protection money. But at this point, it doesn't matter.

Carter's disposition plan was then discussed, with the main Allen saying, Kyle listening, and Raphael spitting from time to time.

In the end, it was decided to keep Carter in the dungeon for the time being, and then deal with it together after fighting back against the real assassin and the gang behind him.

Of course, being assassinated can't be the same as being okay, although Alan thinks that with his skills, even if the real assassin carries out the assassination, it won't cause him any harm, but he definitely can't ignore the viciousness of this matter and the malice emanating from it.

After discussing the counterattack plan and the aftermath of the assassination, the other two people in the study left one after another.

Alan looked at his left wrist.

You must know that the purpose of his inauguration ceremony is not just for the sake of bitterness.
