"Greif!?"

"Yes, your former mercenary companion is also one of my loyal subordinates. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Avi never doubted Greif's identity, he was a real fisherman, using a huge harpoon to catch fish, and there were many traces on his body that proved that he had fought with the sea. For Avi, who joined the Moon Shield Mercenary Group around the same time, followed Fed, and became the initial member of the Potato Mercenary Group, Greif is a good old man who keeps a distance from everyone on the surface, but is actually sincere and considerate of people everywhere.

So when Prince Walt mentions Greif's name, Avi doesn't want to believe that Greif will harm him and Van . However, when Keth meets Avi again, she mentions that Greif's true identity is not her brother, but a member of the Kingdom of Salins who protects her and spies on her.

"Of course, in my eyes, being a mercenary is not a big deal, and if Avi overheard what I said, then you should know why you were arrested. Walter still smiled gently, as if he was discussing a problem with other Kestrel Academy students.

Fan turned his head to look at Avi, who knew that Walter's reason for suspecting himself and Fan was well-founded, so he didn't need Walter's explanation at all.

When Walter saw that Avi had his head down and was silent, he ordered the two to be taken away and interrogated again after they were brought back.

"Wait!" Fan sat down on the ground hard, "We are the East Oguna Empire, Lord Stitch..."

Before the big-nosed fan could finish his words, the beggar-looking woman walked up quickly and gave Fan a direct slap! The loud slap made Walter, who had already turned around and was about to leave, turn around.

"You two are suspected of being traitors intent on subverting the kingdom of Salins, and you used to be mercenaries before becoming Lord Stitch's bodyguard, so stop struggling and go back to trial. The man, who was holding a thick book in one hand, stood in front of them and said in a childlike tone.

Fan was stunned by the hard slap, and Avi noticed that the woman's face was obscured by her long black hair, and only the eyebrows, nose, and lips could be seen.

"Wait!"

Walter turned again, and Avi and Van immediately looked into a hallway to the left of the abandoned bell tower, where Fenrir, one of the Prince's cronies, was standing with torches in hand. Behind Fenrir dozens of soldiers were coming out of the alleyways one after another, filling the area around the abandoned bell tower.

"General Fenrir, why are you here?" Walter waved his hand, and the soldiers who were about to take Avi and Van away stopped and held their weapons down.

"His Royal Highness the Third Prince doesn't know that Prince Bradley took over the city defense after returning to the capital Mallot, and according to some people's reports, there was a large army with weapons in the abandoned area, so Prince Bradley specially sent me to take a look. ”

"I see," Walter glanced at Avi, whose face was already full of surprise, "these are the guards who follow me, and I really admire Brother Wang's style of moving quickly and not letting go of any detail, if nothing else, I'm leaving." ”

"Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, those two are Lord Stitch's guards, why were they arrested without permission?"

The middle-aged man named Feremon replied, "These two people are suspected of treason, and they have also eavesdropped on my conversation with His Royal Highness the Prince, and are about to be arrested and interrogated. ”

"However, it seems that His Royal Highness the Third Prince has not obtained permission to arrest the suspected. ”

"Our prince still needs permission to do things?!" Fremont shouted angrily, but Walter gently patted Feremon on the shoulder to calm him down.

"General Fenrir, did Brother Wang make any rules?"

"That's right, His Royal Highness the Third Prince shouldn't be clear, now all the big and small things in the city have been interrogated by the city guards, this is a rule set by Prince Bradley and Princess Winlith, even if the other party is a traitor with conclusive evidence, His Royal Highness the Third Prince can't imprison them privately, nor can he interrogate them privately. ”

Fenrir's words made Avi and Fan see a glimmer of light, and this time even Fan changed his opinion of Bradley from the bottom of his heart, thinking that he was a wise and martial nobleman!

"Don't you know the test thrown by the ghost of the academy?Our Royal Highness the Prince is secretly operating, how can I inform you of the city guards!"

"Arresting people without permission and transferring soldiers in Mallotne without permission is not something to boast about, Count Feremont, you must have suffered the loss of making decisions without permission, right?" Fenrir did not give an inch, his words stung the Feremon who was holding the thick book.

Walter thought for a moment and said, "Feremon, you immediately enter the palace and apply to your father for permission to arrest, and I will take these two suspects away now." ”

Feremon quickly disappeared from Fenrir's field of vision, and Fenrir did not dare to act rashly at this time, Avi could see from Fenrir's eyes that the other party was here to save himself and Fan, but Walter did not give an inch.

"Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, why don't you let me take these two people to the camp of the city guards first, and wait for King Byron's permission to be issued, and then..."

"This is not going to work," said Walter, who had taken out of nowhere an old wooden chair that the beggar-like woman had moved out of nowhere, "these two men are very suspicious, and they have overheard a secret conversation between me and my men, and it is absolutely impossible to let them go." ”

Avi panicked in his heart, he didn't know why he and Fan were bitten by Prince Walter. If it's true that he and Fan are suspected of being traitors, then Walter's attitude is a little too resolute, is there anything in his overheard...

"In my opinion, His Royal Highness the Third Prince should focus on that, not on these two people. Fenrir suddenly looked up at the top of the abandoned bell tower, where a figure sat at the tip of the top floor.

Avi and the others noticed the figure, and the woman who looked like a female beggar was startled, her hands trembling.

"Someone you didn't even notice must be a great guy. Walter glanced at the woman, and then at the figure at the top of the clock tower.

The figure came from Avi's familiar voice, "I'm just here to see the play, but the strange thing is, why do you find me?"

"Because I received a tip-off that in addition to the personal guards of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, there is also a person wearing a mask and a hood, and I just found you," Fenrir raised the torch above his head, trying to illuminate the figure, "You are the house ghost of the Kestrel Academy... One of them, right?"

Avi was stunned - one of them?

"Very good, it seems that I haven't even tested the eldest prince, he has already completed some difficult challenges, such as collecting clues about the identity of the academy's ghosts. ”

Avi could hear it clearly, the person who was talking now was not the same person who was talking on the top floor of the school building before, although the voice of talking with his mouth covered would become very faint, but under Fenrir's reminder, Avi did hear the voices of two people. Could it be that the Ghost of the Academy is really not just one person, but many?

"Under Prince Bradley's management, the security of Mallotte will only get better, and the ghosts of the Academy, who have appeared in mysterious guises many times, you are the last problem in the problem of law and order. ”

"It sounds like a serious problem, but I'm not interested in what is in front of me tonight, and I wouldn't be there if someone hadn't made an appointment with those two Imperials in my name. ”

That's right! It's Celenos! Avi looked up at the figure, although he didn't see the other party's blue hair, nor did he see the lazy face of the other party, but the only people who knew that he had been asked out by the academy ghost were Fan and Celenos! The other party must have come here after seeing the thin piece of iron!

Prince Walter immediately gestured to the woman with his eyes, and the woman immediately walked to the abandoned bell tower, apparently trying to catch the ghost of the academy on the rooftop.

"Prince Bradley has long wanted to meet Your Excellency, and for us, the House Ghost of the Kestrel Academy is definitely not an enemy, but a friend, this is what His Royal Highness the Grand Prince said to me personally. Fenrir didn't let his men do anything, he seemed happy to talk to the figure on the roof.

"Me too, I also hope to be friends with the Academy Ghost," Walter glanced at the female subordinate who was approaching the roof, "If I can, I hope that the Academy Ghost can put down the veil of mystery and discuss the future of the kingdom with our princes, I believe that with the joint efforts of me, my two brothers and Sister Wang, we will definitely be able to build the Kingdom of Salins!" Walter is just like when he made the declaration at the Kestrel Academy, Avi is now looking at Walter's side face, and suddenly feels a sense of hypocrisy, Walter should not want to use some method to lure the house ghost out, right?

"Sounds interesting," the figure of the Academy Ghost stood up, "but who can guarantee that no one has malicious intent?"

"I, Walter, the third prince of the Kingdom of Salins, have absolutely no malicious intentions, I only hope that I can unite everyone and contribute to the future of the kingdom together!"

The figure was silent for a moment, "Then we'll talk about it next time, by the way, I want to give Prince Walter a gift." With that, the ghost of the academy took out a lump of something from his clothes and threw it down! Avi didn't see what it was, but it made a slight cracking sound when it hit the ground, and a large thick fog immediately drifted out of it! The dust in front of the abandoned bell tower was raised, and Avi and Fan coughed so hard that they couldn't see anything.

Avi felt pulled out as he coughed violently, and when he tried to echo Fan, he choked even more because he opened his mouth to inhale too much dust. It wasn't until he was taken away from the abandoned bell tower in the confusion, blinking his eyes incessantly trying to squeeze the dust out of his eyes, that he heard Fenrir's voice.

"You're safe, and if Walter takes you, your lives won't be in danger. ”
