Chapter 165: Waiting for the snake to come out of the hole
"Report to my lord, the enemy has a total of 31 people, except for the target and his family, a total of 6 people, the others have all been wiped out, and in addition, under my interrogation, the target has been recruited, this is what he unloaded. β
Hogg handed a piece of paper to Langdon and said casually.
This kind of thing is really nothing to her, it is a merchant family, most of them are slaves, and there are less than 10 thugs who guard the house, and they can't withstand a round of Goblin Knights' charge, if it weren't for Hogg still remembering Langdon's orders, the Goblin Knights would have almost wiped out that family.
She was very indifferent, and so was Langdon, but outside the courtyard, the entire city of SΓΈrenord had already exploded.
You must know that since the Isis Mistress took down this place and completely gained control of it, no one has dared to use more than 20 troops in Sorenod City except for the Isis Mistress, and even if the Security Bureau wants to carry out some more dangerous arrests, it needs to apply for the Isis Mistress and dare to act only after obtaining approval.
And Langdon, first violently controlled the security bureau, occupied the prison there, and caused chaos in the prison, and not long after he came out, he immediately sent dozens of troops, and it was also cavalry, and directly attacked a house!
This has set a record for the city of Sorenord for decades, and if someone else had done this, his head might have been in front of the Isis mistress by now, and Langdon was not a, what should he do.
Langdon looked at the name written in his hand, and the paper that had assassinated him in the first place, and Hogg asked impatiently, "My lord, are we going to arrest someone now?"
"Don't worry. Langdon touched his head to kill, gently appeased this beast-eared cute girl who was obviously not addicted to killing and was a little impatient, and then raised the paper in his hand and said with a smile: "This guy will definitely not be able to run, just like the turtle in the urn, sooner or later it will be yours, it is better to keep him first, and see if he can bring me more surprises." β
He paused, and then smiled: "Speaking of which, I can be regarded as a fool with a foolish blessing, if I didn't have that little sympathy at the beginning, and directly let people torture Varus to confess, causing them to be vigilant, maybe they would have killed people a long time ago, and how could I have this opportunity to find them out today, in this case, of course I have to make good use of this blessing." β
"And what do we do now?" Hogg asked curiously.
And so on. It was Zhu Lingqi who answered her, she seemed to have expected this, she stayed in the chair from the beginning to the end and closed her eyes to recuperate, as if she was not interested in all this, and only then did she open her eyes and reply to Hogg.
"Oh. Hogg didn't even have any objection to this, and he did everything he could into the chair and close his eyes, and after a while, the sound of long breathing came, and the girl was really asleep.
............
At the same time, on the other side of the city, in a rather ornate mansion, two men were discussing something, or rather, one questioning the other.
"You promised me that there would be no problems, but now what's going on? You'd better give me a reasonable explanation, or else!" questioned a female dark elf, whose face was now hideous, and there was no beauty at all.
It's no wonder she's like this, because the name on the piece of paper that Langdon gets is hers - Lynch.
Of course, she didn't know that the piece of paper existed, but as one of the people who had been following Langdon for the past few days, when Langdon suddenly arrested all the people in Varus's shop, and then sent troops to storm the rich merchant's mansion, she already understood that her exposure was only a matter of time.
The object of her questioning was the number one thinker under her command, and the person who offered advice back then.
She had to make this decision as a last resort in order to get a greater benefit and raise her position in the Isis family again, but if it weren't for the seemingly foolproof plan that her brains came up with, she would have given up because she didn't have a chance to do it.
Of course, there was no point in talking about it now, and in the end she did it, but the so-called foolproof plan still failed, and Langdon did not die as she had hoped.
However, that didn't stop her from benefiting from the fact that Langdon had been assassinated twice in a short period of time, and the man in charge of policing the city had stepped down for dereliction of duty, and she had taken advantage of the opportunity to climb all the way to where she is today.
And the problems that she was worried about at the beginning that might be exposed were gradually forgotten by her after all these years, she didn't think that after so many years, Langdon would have a day when the old things would be brought up again, and even when Langdon returned here and offered to take revenge in front of so many people, she didn't believe that Langdon could find any clues and evidence.
However...... Well, again, however, this time, she was not as lucky as before, and Langdon not only really rehashed the old story, but also really found clue evidence and found her directly.
Although Langdon hasn't done anything yet, she also understands that it will be sooner or later, and what she needs to do now is not how to get this thing off herself, but how to save her life and how to minimize the loss!
As her number one thinker, Ace was calm enough at this time, and saw the key at a glance, and when he heard the questioning, he still explained, "Actually, we were completely prepared at that time, and all the preparations for the elimination of the mouth were made, because Langdon did not make trouble so that he finally decided to spare those people's lives, so as to save some unnecessary trouble, if you want to blame, you can only blame Langdon, no one would have thought that he would suddenly launch after a lapse of 3 years." β
After a pause, he continued: "The most important thing now is how to solve this problem. β
Lynch did not calm down because of that explanation, but became more and more angry, and yelled at As, "Solve it, you tell me how to solve it!"
"The first way is to go to the Mother of Isis now, confess everything, and kneel down to beg her for forgiveness," said As. β
"I know you still say?" she said angrily.
"Then the second way. Ace didn't mind her attitude, but continued, "Let's strike first and take out Langdon!"
This time, he didn't even pause, and directly continued: "There is a third way, which is to pull more people into the water, until the Isis Mistress can no longer bear that kind of loss, she will naturally ask Langdon to stop what he has done. Master, you have collected a lot of these things in the years of the Security Bureau, and now, it is time to use them!"
Her expression finally settled slightly, pondered for a while, and said, "Okay, just do as you say, I need some time to sort out those information, some of which you know, you go and contact those people first." β
"Yes, master. Ace bowed down, his eyes flickering, but no one noticed it because of the angle, and then he turned and stepped back.
A few minutes later, Ace, dressed in black robes, left through the hidden back door of the mansion.
In a corner where he couldn't see at all, Cahill poked out half of his head and took it all in his eyes......
