As if it were a sign, Wifred's death made the Three-Hand group and the gang of Downtown begin to stir, and all kinds of things began to happen, and panic gradually spread to Midtown.

Fortunately, the nobles of the upper city are still as stable as Mount Tai. The reason for this, on the one hand, is that even if they are a little apprehensive in their hearts, they will not show it like ordinary people.

What is aristocracy? The nobleman was holding a banquet at home, and the servant hurriedly came to report: "It's a big deal, the mud legs outside have hit the door!" They also had to drink the red wine in their hands slowly, and solve the problem of "mud legs hitting the door" in a calm and unhurried manner.

Even though it is possible that they are already frightened, they must behave lightly and calmly - in the words of the imp of Trandon, this is the pride of the nobility.

On the other hand, those nobles may still be secretly rejoicing that Wilfried, the loyal dog of the royal family, was finally killed, and it was a good fight! Raise a glass to the unknown good man who has benefited everyone.

Although Wifled's death was shocking, it was not such a major event as the discovery of the "New World" and the sudden death of the king.

In fact, if this guy hadn't caught up with the good times, he would have died after the Marquis of Monroe and several other nobles, forming a series.

The impact of Wilfred's death was even less than that of the Marquis of Wabbes.

The City of Thorns is still the bustling imperial capital, but behind the prosperity, the undercurrent has become more and more obvious, and it seems that a chaotic vortex has gradually formed, which will drag everyone into it.

As the creator of the undercurrent, Trandon also had some worries written on his face, looked at Su Mo and asked, "Will it be ...... if we do this?"

"What will be?" Su Mo asked.

"A little too presumptuous?" After thinking about it for a while, Trandon really couldn't find the right adjective, so he had to use "presumptuous" to describe it.

"Nope...... We have been doing things in secret, isn't it very much in line with the code of conduct of the aristocracy? Su Mo said, "Besides, young master, this is revenge, how can revenge be immortal." Otherwise, if you give up your revenge and complete the contract directly, I might as well go home and sleep early. ”

"Cut, do you think I'm going to cheapen you demon?" Trandon sneered, suppressing the confusion in his heart.

"Everyone's own anyway." Su Mo said.

"Okay, don't talk about this uselessness, how much useful information do you know from Wifled." Trandon puts the conversation back on track.

As Su Mo said, Wilfried did have several frictions with the Wobs family, which was not a small matter. However, this is not the main reason why he was listed as a "target for revenge" by Trandon.

Trandon regarded him as an enemy, on the one hand, because of Wilfred's inaction, perfunctory, and even cover-up attitude after the death of his parents. On the other hand, as the director of the Sheriff's Office, he can know much more about certain secrets than ordinary nobles.

"He doesn't know much, but it should be useful." Su Mo said.

"About the people behind that island or the cause of my parents' deaths?" For Trandon, these are the two things he cares about the most.

"Both." Su Mo uttered an answer that made Tlandon's heart beat suddenly.

After taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling it, Trandon barely calmed down.

"Regarding the cause of your parents' death, although it has always been claimed to the public that they were hit by a carriage, the real cause of death is not this, presumably the young master should feel something." Su Mo said.

Trandon nodded, the cause of his parents' deaths, the official version is that they were hit by an out-of-control carriage that afternoon, and when they returned home that night, they both died.

But on that day, Trandon remembers very well that although his father and mother had some injuries on their bodies, their movements were still powerful, and they did not look like two seriously injured people at all.

How could it be that as soon as he woke up, he died of "serious injuries" in his bedroom?

"Although there is no clear evidence, according to the results of the investigation, the cause of your parents' death is no different from the cause of death of the rest of the Wabbs family. Their state after death is almost identical. Su Mo said.

“……”

Trandon's eyes widened, "How did they die?" ”

"Death without cause." Su Mo said, "At least, with the current means, the cause of their death cannot be detected, but compared to being scared to death, the ghost asks for his life, I personally prefer to poison them." ”

"Is it poisonous?" Trandon muttered.

"By the way, if that Wiflede hadn't lied, the Marquis of Monroe would have died in the same state as the Wobs family." Su Mo said.

"What did you say?" Trandon was stunned again.

"There is probably a master who can use poison, and after almost exterminating Wobs, he did it to the Marquis of Monroe." Su Mo said his speculation.

"Find that person." Trandon decisively gave the order, as for how to find it, this kind of thing is not for him to consider.

"And the island thing."

Su Mo said, "Weevered is not an insider, but he provides a very interesting clue, how much do you know about Aldrich, young master?" ”

"I don't know." "What does he do?" ”

"The king of beggars in the lower city - at least on the surface, he is the boss of a group of beggars." Su Mo said.

"What's the use of this guy? Help us beg? Trenton spoke with disdain.

"It'......s all said on the surface," Su Mo said, "This guy, if there are ten cases of missing people in the imperial capital, eight of them are related to him." Those who are missing, the three who are lucky, will reappear in Downtown or even Midtown, begging with a broken arm or leg. ”

"If you're unlucky, you won't be in the imperial capital in this life."

"Death or being sold somewhere else, right?" Trandon said, as if remembering his experience, his fists clenched tightly.

"Yes, like those sacrifices...... I think there will be a source. Su Mo said, "The clue about the person behind the island has been broken, I think I can only start from here, I hope that Aldrich guy knows something." ”

"Wait." Trandon suddenly asked, "Even if Aldrich provided some of the sacrifice, shouldn't his liaison be Gerald's guy?" ”

"Gerald's power is obviously not that great, and he has no idea where the sacrifice comes from." Su Mo said, "Besides, such a person is usually very well-informed, and maybe he will know the news that even Wifred doesn't know." ”

"It's hard to find, too."

Trandon added, "Forget it, I don't care about that, I just need the final result, and these things will be left to you." "The shopkeeper is very skilled.

As Trandon said, someone like Aldrich is as hard to find as a rat in the sewers, and even Wafred only knows one of his strongholds.

When Su Mo found a time to come there, there were already people over there who had already gone to the empty building, so he inquired a little.

Su Mo was somewhat surprised to learn that Aldrich had disappeared for six or seven days. The beggars under his command have not even turned over their income for three days.

"Six or seven days ago, it wasn't when Trandon happened to be back in the imperial capital, and it seemed that this guy knew something. It's funny, the people behind that island seem to like to use some low-level people to do things. Su Mo said secretly in his heart.

From Lady Liz to Viscount Gerald, their status is relatively high compared to ordinary people, but compared to the power shown by the island, it is not worth mentioning at all.

Now there's a king of beggars, and they're just little people, little pawns - but they're enough to keep the island running smoothly on a daily basis.

At the same time, these people are very easy to control, there is no need to tell them too many things, they just need to give enough benefits, they can fully hide themselves and take them out anytime and anywhere, which makes Su Mo have to admire the "royal people" level of the people behind the island.

"Sure enough, I still have to find someone familiar to do this, it's really inappropriate for me to rush in." Shaking his head, Su Mo quickly left Xiacheng District.

The day passed quickly, the sun was sinking in the west, the night engulfed the land, and the lights of the imperial capital began to spread. But for a third of the people in the lower city, they will spend the night in the dark.

Hilton, who returned here, was no stranger to such darkness, and she had lived in it for more than a decade.

The familiar person Su Mo said was none other than Hilton, who was playing a ghost in the manor that night.

Hilton has lived in downtown since she was a child, and she is a pretty good three-hand - she had a decent life. Unfortunately, after accidentally offending a "big man" in the lower city, she had to run away with a few of her younger siblings.

Hilton is also a ruthless man, and this run runs directly to the Manor of Wobs.

Very fortunate or very unfortunate to become the cook of the Wobs family.

He said that he was very lucky because Hilton had no worries about food and clothing, no longer had to worry about where to solve the next meal, and even had some money to buy a few beautiful new clothes for himself and his younger siblings.

It is unfortunate because Hilton's fate is no longer in his own hands from now on.

Instead, it was in the hands of the man behind her, Sebastian, the butler of the Wobs family.

This is certainly not a pleasant thing.

Especially on such a night, accompany this man back to this slum that represents the darkness of the imperial capital.
