Chapter 126: Stranger

The visit of Priest Arnold helped to resolve an existing suspicion from another perspective, which had been dispelled by the suspicion that Diana was present in the town of Timboo. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Your Highness, I observed when I was in the village, and Diana seems to really know what she is capable of, according to the priest, she is indeed from the royal capital, but the news of the scepter does not match. "York was confused, should he believe her?

"There is no problem with the scepter, a gambler dares to steal and hide it and then find a way to sell it? Even the people on the black market dare not take over, who can he sell it to?" Leon didn't know the reason, but the scepter was involved with the Queen Mother, and the matter behind it must not be simple.

"Who is the mysterious woman in Natinbu, and why did she scare the Baron's family into fleeing?" York said to himself, but when he thought about it, he had nothing to do with Ravenwood, and he might as well care about his subordinates.

"I had the opportunity to talk to Chris, and it didn't matter if I couldn't figure it out. "Lyon's thoughts are in line with York's, the town is a critical time at the moment, and there is no need to spend energy on an outsider.

"Yes, we are not looking for the Baron for important matters, and there is no loss to us in his departure. "The prince said so, and York naturally wanted to put it all down.

"You go to the training ground, I know you're going to miss it a few days away. Leon smiled, and York's mind was nothing more than the training ground, so he asked him to go back early to relieve his thoughts.

"Your Highness, then I'll go first. York clenched his fists and decided to sweat it out on the training ground today.

Back in the Executive Hall, Leon didn't see Chris.

"Where did Chris go?" Leon asked the guard outside the door, there was no mission to go out today, and after dealing with Nakasuma before, he went directly back to the administrative hall to handle official business, so he should be here at this time,

"Someone came looking for him, and he left. The guard recalled for a moment that it hadn't happened for long, and besides, there were only a few people who had entered the castle, and the guards had not forgotten the little thing.

"Okay. Leon nodded, figuring out that the baron's situation was not in a hurry, since he was not there, he would talk about it next time.

"But......" Before the prince could leave, the guard spoke again, as if remembering something important.

"Just say it. Leon said casually, could there be anything unexpected?

However, Mr. Chris's face was a little flustered, and when I asked him what was going on, he didn't say anything, but left in a hurry. It was the first time the guard had seen him so flustered, and he didn't even have time to reply.

"And such a thing?" Leon was also a little puzzled, what else could have happened in the town that would have made him behave like this, could it be that there was an accident in the mine, but why didn't he send someone to inform him?

"Who is the person who came to him?" asked Leon, the main ones in charge were all regular customers of the castle, and the guards should know each other.

"I don't know, look dressed up and not from our town. "The guard is very sure of this, he is originally from the town, most of the people around him know him, and the person who came seems to be very faceless.

"And what did they say?" Leon felt that things were a little strange, how could an outsider look for Chris.

"It seems to have something to do with his little sister, I'm not sure, but I just overheard it. "The guards were far away, and there were only a few words that could be roughly distinguished.

"Rachel?" Leon whispered, the guards didn't know much, they hadn't even heard of the name, and it was a waste of time to ask him.

Chris's little sister is Rachel, and she is also the person Diana wants to watch out for, she has been in town for so long without accidents, could it be that something happened today?

Guessing here is not helpful in understanding the truth, only finding someone to ask the situation is the most important thing.

The Chris siblings have been living in Toso's house since they came to town, but luckily Toso's home is not far away, and it doesn't take much time to get there.

"You go and tell the Knight of York to come back to the castle and wait for me. Leon had a bad premonition, and he didn't have much time to think about it, so he could only act quickly.

Leon didn't waste any time and rushed straight to Toso's house.

Now Toso is the town's vegetable field manager, and he is preoccupied with planting the vegetable field, and when he comes to the yard, he finds that Toso is not there, and he is still busy in the vegetable field and has not returned.

Leon knocked on the door, but no one answered, as if no one was there.

His feelings were getting worse and worse, as if something bad was looming.

"Your Royal Highness, why are you here?" Leon was about to leave, Nafi happened to come with a basket on her shoulder, and her face was full of joy when she saw the arrival of the prince, His Royal Highness would not visit any townsman casually, but it would be a great honor to appear.

Leon breathed a sigh of relief that Rachel had been helping Chris take care of her most of the time since Rachel came to town, and she would definitely tell her whereabouts.

"Lady Nafi, where is Rachel?" Leon said directly, if something really happened, he had to know as soon as possible to have a plan for the next step.

"Rachel went out to play and hasn't come back yet, but she usually goes home at this time, and she may have lost track of time today, after all, she is still a child. Nafei smiled, children are inevitably playful and lose time, in a place like a small town there is no need to worry about what will happen to them, after all, they are surrounded by familiar neighbors.

"Is there anything unusual about her today?" Leon wanted to find out from the source.

"Anomalous?" Nafi didn't know what the prince's intentions were, but his words were the greatest order, so she had to think about it seriously.

"No, it's the same as usual. Nafei shook her head, Rachel is a well-behaved child, how can there be anything abnormal.

"Then did you notice a stranger around?" Leon remembered a key point, the person looking for Chris was an outsider, and he was talking about Rachel, and the two must have something to do with each other.

"Yes, after you reminded me of this, I did notice that there were two strange men hanging outside, but there were always people coming and going during this time, and I didn't pay much attention to it. "Nafi didn't pay attention to it in the first place, the town is no more closed than before, and now it has long been a common thing for people to come and go, who has nothing to pay attention to these details.

"Okay, I got it. Leon didn't want to waste time, it looked like something had really happened to the Chris siblings.

"Your Highness, what's going on?" Nafei couldn't help but get anxious when she saw that the prince was a little anxious.

"It's okay, excuse me. Leon didn't want to be in a hurry, he left in a hurry, and now he had to rush back and let the patrol start a town-wide search.
