Chapter 148: The Situation Under High Pressure

"Haha, Tyr, you kid has been caught in too!"

Sitting in the interrogation room for investigation, Jeff smiled like a New Year when he saw the person brought in by the female officer. The so-called interrogation room is not a prison cell, and the real prisoners are often escorted to the "Spiral City Prison" in the southwest corner of the imperial capital after being interrogated, and this place is only a temporary building for the interrogation of suspects.

The former building was a barracks for soldiers of the Kingdom Army, and the daily necessities of the soldiers can still be found everywhere.

When Lin Qiu came in, there happened to be a group of drunken drunkards who were sent out by the Kingdom Army.

Prince Richard's "attack" coma was just a fuse, in fact, in the past nearly a week, the drunkard forces in the imperial capital have been severely cracked down, and no less than ten drunkards have been escorted back almost every day. The female officer pointed to the bench next to Jeff and said, "You stay here honestly for me, and then I will interrogate you properly when I finish my duty!"

Lisa was angry when she saw Lin Qiu and Jeff - no progress had been made in the interrogation work in the past few days, and the only two detained guys had obviously nothing to do with the incident pursued by the Kingdom Army.

Jeff felt that he had finally found a companion, and the stern female officer had threatened to keep him for a week, and he was still thinking about how to spend the week-long "prisoner" time...... But if it's a beautiful and cold female officer playing with him, it's not unacceptable.

Lin Qiu looked at Jeff, and there was darkness in front of him.

- That shark-faced thug is really an officer of the Kingdom Army!

This is a stab!

Violent disobedience to law enforcement and the like could not be done by Lin Qiu, who was a good citizen.

"Since you have been arrested here, it is possible that you have also noticed something unusual in the imperial capital recently. After Lin Qiu took his seat, Jeff whispered to him. During the time that Lin Qiu left the imperial capital, there were many riots, and it was rare to see the church and the kingdom army patrolling the streets together.

"Hmmm......"

Lin Qiu nodded and admitted Jeff's statement: "So it seems that I'm not the only one who has noticed the vision, Mr. Jeff, you have also seen it - this city has been overrun by monsters of unknown origin, and I was caught here just now because I contradicted that shark-faced officer." ”

"Not at all!"

Jeff's feet slipped, and he fell to the ground: "Only you kid was caught for this inexplicable reason! Also, that one was obviously a big beauty just now, right, you kid is blind?"

"What, beauty, I didn't expect you to have this hobby, Mr. Jeff...... But I suggest you be careful, if you talk to sharks or something, you'll be cut off. ”

"Heyβ€”β€”! if you want to fight, just say it!"

Seeing that the goddess in his mind was being slandered, Jeff rolled up his sleeves and was ready to rush up to have a free fighting training with Lin Qiu.

So 3 minutes after Lin Qiu entered the cell, the boat that symbolized friendship between him and Jeff sank.

"You two be honest!, stop fighting in the interrogation room!" the soldier hurriedly stopped him.

"Report to Captain Orangutan, I'm not fighting, I'm just beating each other unilaterally!" Lin Qiu took the time to salute the soldier and reported.

"Who do you say is Captain Orangutan, I just look a little more wild!"

Five minutes laterβ€”

"What exactly do you mean by the unusual place you just said?" Lin Qiu kicked Jeff, who was lying on the floor with a corpse.

"Actually, since you left, ......"

Jeff fell into deep memories.

When the nobles of the first Henry VI faction were found dead on the way home, the Kingdom Army and the Church classified this as a vendetta between the nobles, which happened from time to time, but it was only a day later that people began to realize the seriousness of the problem. So far, more than 10 nobles have died, all of them in a single blow, and before the victims could react, they were beheaded with a sword. There are countless people who can do this in the imperial capital, but what is really unbelievable is the purpose of the killer.

The nobles who died came from various factions, and in addition to Henry VI's supporters, there were also some minor nobles who supported Princess Sophia's neutral party and secretly sided with Prince Richard. Aside from the fact that they all have nobility in common, these events appear to be completely killers killing people randomly.

At first, Henry VI and the people of the church only secretly investigated, until Prince Richard fell into a coma, which directly led to the state of martial law in the whole city.

Richard, that idiot, picked this time to eat his stomach badly, and made such a big oolong out!

Lin Qiu disagreed, but he didn't dare to speak up.

Now everyone is tense, if they find out that the people who used dark cuisine to "poison" Prince Richard are Anna and Rose, maybe someone will take advantage of the situation to push the previous series of charges onto the two little girls.

"I haven't been idle for the past two days, and I've heard a lot of information from the drunkards who have been caught. ”

Jeff said solemnly.

Most of the drunkards in the imperial capital know each other, and Jeff, as the head of the drunkards in the past, still has a lot of prestige. According to the drunkards, the main reason for the recent thorough investigation of various taverns by the Kingdom Army is that eyewitnesses pointed out that the killers exchanged information and selected targets in the taverns.

The killers are dressed in such a striking way that they act in animal masks that completely obscure their appearance. What hindered the investigation of the case was that the actions of these mask killers in a sense inspired the common people in the imperial capital, and most of the victims were nobles, and the nobles and the common people had long-standing irreconcilable contradictions.

Inspired civilians, unable to provide direct assistance, took cover for the killers, and some wore similar masks to confuse the Kingdom Army. Many of Jeff's friends had been caught and interrogated by the pond fish while drinking, and now if they complained about the injustice of the imperial capital's policies while drunk, they would be wanted by the kingdom's army lurking in the shadows.

However, under this high-pressure policy, no clues were found about the mask killers, and those guys cleverly avoided the dark lines laid by all the Kingdom troops as if they could predict the actions of the Kingdom Army.

"But don't confuse me with those ordinary drunkards who were caught here for complaining about the imperial capital's policies, I was arrested for molesting female officers of the kingdom army!"

Jeff held his head high, as if he had done some remarkable feat.

"There's no need to stress about this kind of thing!"

Lin Qiu rubbed his temples, and he stared at the man he had called "Captain Orangutan" before.

"Mr. Jeff, what does that soldier look like to you?"

"Just a slightly rough-looking soldier. Jeff gave the answer puzzled.

Lin Qiu always felt that the situation seemed to have just been encountered not long ago.

No, it had nothing to do with those masked murderers, his hands clenched into fists, his bones clattering. It was only suddenly that he understood what was going on in this world full of monsters.

"Phoenix β€”β€”!" Lin Qiu gritted his teeth, his eyes revealing a fierce light.
