The old butler looked at the egret speechlessly, staring at Duke Anne in a daze, and slammed it twice, but did not make any sound. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Can't speak?" said Egret with a disdainful laugh, "Well, but if I'm in this awkward situation." I'm afraid I can't say anything. ”

"You've committed one of the three great sins of the Empire. ”

"First, illegally imprison the parishioners in your territory and enslave them to work for you. ”

"Second, the persecution of innocent people, causing serious bodily harm. ”

"Third, hide identities and create illegal institutions. ”

"Well, the last one is a bit worth considering. After all, your original identity is a famous bandit who has been hunted down by the Holy Radiance Empire for more than 50 years. Mr. Rudegak. The egret spoke slowly, with a slight sigh in his voice.

"The alliance of bandits you formed, the Bloodborne Brotherhood. Now it has been hanging on the wanted list of the Shenghui Empire, ranking third. This badra is one of your men. ”

"Huh. The old butler laughed suddenly, his face twisted. "I don't understand what you're talking about at all. This Badra is an employee I have hired to maintain the facilities of the old Duke's Palace, and it is probably not appropriate for Your Excellency to be framed like this. ”

"Maintain?, by imprisoning the Spirit Fox clan and forcing them to brew fairy ale?" Egret almost laughed, "I know you can quibble, but at least it's a little bit technical." ”

"What Badra did had nothing to do with me. The old butler came to his senses, stood up, and said. "You have no evidence that I was involved in the crime you are talking about. ”

"Really, do you need me to lift your cuffs and show you the Bloodborne Brotherhood tattoo on your body?"

The egret shook his head and said helplessly. "Two days ago, I slaughtered two offals in the hunting woods of the Duke's Palace. At that time, I was full of doubts about the appearance of human traffickers and girls of the Spirit Fox Clan in the Duke's Palace. ”

"So I have carefully examined the bodies of the so-called traffickers in the past two days. Remember when you took me to the surveillance room after the hall attack? You have the same tattoo on your arm as the two bodies. I asked Lodi to look it up, and it was only then that I discovered an incredible fact. "The tattoo on your body is actually the tattoo seal of the Brotherhood of Blood. ”

"Isn't it ridiculous to say that you have nothing to do with it? ”

"You're right. I am indeed a member of the Brotherhood of the Bloodborne. But this, the old duchess master knows. The old butler regained his smile and spoke slowly. "More than 40 years ago, I fought against the army of the old duchess master in the flames. But in the end, he was recruited by the old duke's master. This is the case in the records of the territory. ”

"As for the members of these Bloodborne Brotherhoods, they are also members of the Bloodline Brotherhood, just like I was at the beginning. What's wrong with that? As I said, the sins of Bhadra have nothing to do with me. ”

"It's okay, you're going to come here with the nobles who failed in the bid to see the fairy ale?" Fiona couldn't help herself, and shouted in a sharp voice. "Don't go too far. Old guy!"

"It was Bhadra who told me that he had found the old duke's master's original stock of flaming ale. The old butler said unhurriedly, "I came with the nobles who did not get their share, and I didn't want them to return empty-handed. ”

"You guy!" Fiona almost jumped. The old butler cleaned himself up and put all the blame on the dead Bhadra. This made Fiona so angry that she wanted to pounce on it.

"Egret, you really shouldn't have killed that guy directly. This old guy doesn't have to be cheeky at all. ”

"That guy is about to abuse the young girl of the Spirit Fox Clan. Do you think someone was shouting for me to kill him? The corners of the egret's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly. "Don't worry, this old guy can't get away with it. ”

"You're very smart. The egret was the first to praise the old butler's cunning, "However, you are clever and mistaken by cleverness." ”

"Ever since Anne inherited the Dukedom title three years ago, you've been enslaving the Spirit Fox people to brew fairy ale for you. So the question is, how did the hundreds of people from the Spirit Fox Clan get into the Duke's Mansion without warning?"

"Hundreds. Even if it is allocated, there will be great traces and signs. For three years in a row, even if it is to feed them, it is a lot of expenses. However, these hundreds of people were enslaved for three years under the nose of the Duke's Palace, and no one found them. Normally, this is not possible. However, you have achieved this because you have taken advantage of several conditions. ”

"I also found out the truth after watching the surveillance video. You took advantage of the show run by Duke Anne!"

"Fair?!" both Fiona and Anne exclaimed, and Nina looked at the egret with a puzzled expression.

"That's right. If you look closely at the surveillance video, you will find a very discordant point. During the two days of the exhibition, more than 31,300 people entered the ducal palace, but only 31,200 people left the exhibition. Nearly 100 fewer people. In other words, there are nearly 100 people who have not left the area of the ducal palace since they entered the ducal palace. Referring to the fact that the Spirit Fox people were enslaved, conclusions can be drawn. These nearly 100 people are the new recruits of the Spirit Fox Clan who were captured or bought by your Bloodline Brotherhood this year, and who were enslaved by you!"

"What?" the crowd was immediately startled. Even the corners of the old butler's eyes twitched uncontrollably.

Fiona was even more incredulous: "You actually counted all the people who entered and left the Duke's Palace. How do you remember?!"

"It's not hard for me, and it's not the point. The point is who will be able to arrange the various matters of these nearly 100 people in a short period of time. Except for Duke Anne, there is only the old butler you. I did not rule out the suspicion of Duke Anne at first. At this point, the egret looked at Anne and apologized. "I'm sorry, I can't erase all possibilities. ”

"It's okay. Duke Anne replied, looking at the old butler with a look of disappointment, and Anne's mood was depressed when she knew this fact. After all, the old housekeeper is the one who watched Anne grow up, and this kind of subversion of the three views happened, and for a while, Anne couldn't accept it at all.

"But Duke Anne was very concerned about the matter of the Spirit Fox Clan girl I rescued, and immediately arranged for the members of the armed team to investigate. From this point of view, Duke Anne's suspicion was much lower. So, I've set my sights on you. Thus the true identity of the old butler was found, President Rudegak. ”

"I really admire your imagination. The old butler said, "I am not a little servant, and I have to do everything myself. Maybe I'm also being blinded, and I won't look at the amount or matters of temporary overspending. After all, I trust the servants in the ducal palace. ”

"It barely makes sense. The egret responded, "You are blinded, and your men are doing evil behind your back." Well, these can all be explained. But you can't explain a fatal piece of evidence. You probably don't know why a spirit fox girl escaped. Let me tell you why. We tested the burglar-proof equipment in the lobby before the show, and the whole mansion was jumping around. It is precisely because of this that the former site of the Duke's Palace has attracted attention here, resulting in a hole in the defenses. Let a spirit fox girl escape. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that you have been arranging for the enslavement and food and lodging of the Spirit Fox Clan, how could you be identified by this Spirit Fox Clan girl?"

The egret told the truth, but was interrupted by the old butler's laughter.

"I thought you were going to tell some earth-shattering evidence. Sure enough, it's still a kid who hasn't grown up. A little girl who can't even pronounce a voice, a little miscellaneous who doesn't know mainland Chinese at all. Can you identify me, too?, Lord Egret, you might as well let me see it. ”

As soon as the old butler's voice fell, he realized that something was wrong.

In addition to Egrets, Lodi, Lilith, Fiona, and Nina, Duke Anne and the captains and members of the armed team all looked at the old butler with a strange look.

"Well, who told you that this girl of the Spirit Fox Clan can't speak, and doesn't know how to read?" Except for the egret and his party, because this matter is more cruel. The specific situation of the girl, the egret didn't even tell Anne.

"I listened to the servant. The old butler's cold sweat broke out, and he couldn't pretend to be calm.

"Oh, the girl of the Spirit Fox Clan hasn't woken up yet, and due to the special situation, she has always been taken care of by Lilith herself. What did you hear about the maiden from that servant?, might as well tell us about the confrontation?"

The old butler had nothing to say, and reminisced about the words of the egret. "Didn't wake up. Uh, you're lying to me?!"

"Of course it's a lie. The egret was smiling like a little fox that had stolen meat from a raven's mouth. "You're right. Even if I reasoned about everything, there was no direct evidence that you were the culprit behind the scenes. So I had to use some language. ”

"You!" the old butler trembled with anger, but he didn't expect to say it himself at the last moment. My mind was already confused, and I couldn't even say a quibble.

"I want to get away with it, and then use the power of the Duke's Court to protect myself from the deceived nobles. It's amazing to be able to think of this quickly when you've been through a big change. "You're right. We also swap out these wines to put you in a desperate situation. ”

"Why?" Before the old butler could speak, Duke Anne stepped forward. With a sad and angry expression, he asked.

"Why?" said the old butler raised his head. "What's the point of saying it now? ”
