Chapter XXXI
Figures flashed through the window, patrols came, and Katrina stood up, "Sir, we need help. ”
The man outside the window turned around and "don't move" in a surprised and hostile warning.
"We need ......"
"Hands up" sword drawn.
Katrina and Kira Veton slowly raised their hands.
"That's all"
"The vigilantes' IQ will never improve," Kira Veton said softly, "you fix the ones outside the window, and I'll kill those guys." ”
Footsteps at the door stepped on debris to come in, three people.
"What? they're vigilantes," Catrina was horrified by the idea.
"We've been framed," Kirawiton said, staring at the three vigilantes in the room, "trust me. ”
"No," Tarrant opened his eyes and pretended to be awake, "trust you, our troubles will never end." ”
"Then do you have anything to say?" the priest scoffed.
"Communicate, tell the truth", Tarrant held his hand, "let me come." ”
The soldier pointed his sword at the trio, his eyes focused on Kiraveton's face.
"I want to gouge out all their eyes, crush them and throw them in the ditch to feed the fish," the pastor clenched his hands into fists.
"Calm down", Tarrant swept out the window and saw only two people, the minimum size of the patrol team was also six people, considering the footsteps just now, there should be four or six people around.
The three of them paused for a long time before the patrol leader thought to check the chaos in the room, "Do you have anything to say?"
"Captain, over there," the soldier beside him whispered, pointing to the dwarf at the top of the stairs.
The dwarf was covered with a thin layer of frost, and the cold air of the middle of the night was dewy on him, and the situation was not good.
Tarrant explained, "We are the knights of the Sheltered Light, and we suspect that the owner of this house is doing something abnormal, and last night we found evidence that we had a conflict with the mage, and that's it. ”
The patrol leader instructed the soldier next to him, "Go find the priest," and he kicked away the garbage on the ground and walked over to the three, "Where's the evidence?"
"Right here I am," Tarrant quickly reached for his apprentice's journal, "Kira Viton, letter." ”
"I don't trust them," the pastor replied quietly.
"Please hand over the evidence", the captain looked at Tarrant warily.
Tarrant handed the journal to the patrol leader, "It contains a record of the progress and criminal behavior of the owner of the house, and we need to talk to your chief." ”
"What's the matter with the corpse outside?"
"I don't know," Tarrant said, glancing left and right at his teammates, "that has nothing to do with us." ”
The soldiers slowly approached the squad from both sides.
The patrol leader flipped through the two pages briefly, "If you don't mind, wait here first, and when things are further clarified, the others will be there immediately." ”
"No", Kira Veton put down his hand, "we should go"
"Don't move" The tip of the soldier's sword surrounded the priest, and the patrol leader drew his sword as well, "Are you in a hurry to escape?"
"A bunch of stupid pigs," Kiraweton twisted her fingers, "how about beating them?"
Tarrant chuckled wryly, "Don't get into trouble anymore, I just had a chance to explain the misunderstanding here." ”
"Cowardly soft bones," the priest commented viciously.
"Hands up", the patrol leader slowly moved forward, the mace and the snow were on the ground, which was the main reason why they hadn't done it yet.
"Do as he says," the priest's stubbornness was almost beyond the limits of Tarrant's patience.
"Very well, that's it," seeing the priest's cooperation, the captain relaxed his vigilance slightly, "you," he pointed to a soldier, "go upstairs and have a look." ”
The soldier cautiously walked upstairs with his sword in hand.
The apprentice's corpse...... Maybe still in the study on the second floor, with the diary proving that he was a murderer, Tarrant was not too worried.
"What's the name of the owner of this house?" asked the captain.
"Lovell", Tarrant back.
The captain looked back at the soldier, who shook his head in the absence of anything. They are a patrol of the Docklands, and they know all about the forces and personalities in the Docklands, which means that Lovell is very low-key here.
"Could it be that this Lovell assassinated the man outside the door?" asked the captain again.
"No, he's a mage, he teleported away, I don't think what happened outside the door has anything to do with here. ”
"That's right...... Is there anything that proves your identity?"
Tarrant looked down at his chest, leather armor, Kira Viton was also leather armor, and there was no badge engraved on Haysoff's armor, he shook his head helplessly.
"Can you put your hands down?" said the pastor, looking impatient.
"Stay in our current position, we can both be more relaxed," the patrol leader's hand clenched the hilt of his sword.
The two sides were at a stalemate for a moment.
"Why is there no sound upstairs?" asked the soldier as he approached the captain.
The upstairs was surprisingly quiet, the ceiling had been shattered, and people in heavy armor would inevitably make footsteps when walking upstairs, but not at the moment.
"Is there anyone else upstairs?" the patrol leader looked overhead, his legs slightly separated back and forth, and he was nervous in a battle-ready position.
The three of Tarrant also looked at the top of their heads, "As far as I know, no", he tried to clench his fist, his left arm was in severe pain, and his wound still had a memorial of the battle, a sword wound.
The captain pointed to the two people outside the window, "Call the others", and the six soldiers entered the house one after another, "You two go up and have a look." ”
The two soldiers walked upstairs with unusual caution, and the people downstairs listened attentively to the footsteps, and the movement above their heads slowly moved to the study, normal, and moved to the room on the east side, and the pace accelerated, and they found something, the sound of dragging heavy objects, stopped, and the sound was gone.
The patrol leader's eyes were fixed on the east side, "What's up there?"
Tarrant was also inexplicable, he tilted his head, could the east room be the real yàn room?
Katrina leaned closer to Tarrant, "What's going on?"
Tarrant took her hand, "It could be a trap", Lovell had set up a psychic blast at the gate, and of course there could be a similar mechanism on the second floor.
The patrol leader rubbed his wrists, his tense and stiff sword-holding posture easily made his muscles sore, "You four", he nodded to four more soldiers, but the eyes of the soldiers fully expressed different opinions, "...... Hold the stairs", the captain wisely changed his strategy.
There was no more sound upstairs.
A carriage ran through the street, and everyone's eyes flashed from left to right with the wheels, just passing.
"What is he doing?" the patrol leader broke the silence.
"Spells, control zhì techniques. ”
"Is there anything out of the ordinary, so what's wrong with that?"
"Motive," Tarrant replied truthfully.
"Something......" Kira Verton lowered his hand, the tip of his sword quickly focused on her, "we need to get out of here," she said suddenly.
At the top of the staircase, a soldier suddenly collapsed on the stairs, without warning and without blood, and then another soldier also fell to the ground under the gaze of everyone, and all his expressions turned to horror
