Chapter 65: Arrest
Soon after the formation of the Guards, they brought a large number of middle-class families to the Celts, and the only economic and administrative center of the region, the city of Dunlun, flourished. The streets of spring are full of life, and it can even be said that it is rare to be busy, and everyone is in a hurry, most of them are busy with spring ploughing.
A beautiful young woman walked to the side of the street, she was wearing a white mask, wearing a beige suit, her hair delicately combed behind her head, revealing a beautiful jade neck. At his feet was a pair of leather black shiny high heels, a deerskin satchel was carried on his shoulder, and his thighs wrapped in pantyhose were slender and round, looking as reserved as a noblewoman.
Walking north along the street, the foul smell of the residential area grows stronger and thicker, but fortunately the winter cold has not faded, otherwise the filth that falls on the side of the street and in the gutter will soon rot, and the city will be enveloped in a terrible stench.
Obviously, the city's infrastructure construction has not kept up with the development, but the governor's palace, which is keen on expanding the military, has ignored it, and it seems that there is no intention of spending money to build it.
The glamorous young woman walked through the neighborhood into a filthy tavern, and after taking a key from the bartender, her reserve disappeared without a trace, becoming tense and tight.
She took off her mask, looked at the informant with a smile, and said flatteringly:
"Good afternoon. ”
"Why did you come to me today, and run out of medicine so soon?" The informant seemed a little surprised by her well-behaved attitude, looking at the other party with a puzzled face.
"There are many more medicines. ”
Aisha looked at the other party with a red face and said excitedly: "Didn't you send someone to inform me yesterday that in order to reward me for successfully catching up with Alcia, allow me to make a request, I only want to see my daughter once." ”
"What!?"
The informant was suddenly shocked, and his body trembled violently. Almost fell out of his seat:
"I didn't send anyone to inform you!"
"What?"
Miss Dryad's pretty face instantly lost its blood, and her throat rattled, but she couldn't spit out half a word.
Just then, a tidal wave of footsteps roared and stopped downstairs in the bar, followed by a clamor of chickens and dogs. The two people in the room could no longer control their fear, and froze in place like puppets.
"Quiet! quiet!"
A loud voice roared a few times, and the tavern was still noisy, and after a few seconds of the sound disappeared, there was a sudden sound of broken vessels, mixed with the movement of sporadic heavy objects falling to the ground.
Soon, there was an eerie silence in the tavern, only a few faint ** sounds remained, and the loud voice cleared its throat. In a lion's roar, he announced:
"The Governor's Palace has an order to seal the Champagne Tavern on suspicion of collusion with foreign forces, concealing spies, and plotting against it, and no one is allowed to enter or leave!"
"Arrest all the people here, and let no one go. ”
The informant walked quickly to the window and tried to jump out of it. found that the entire vicinity of the tavern was surrounded by a heavily armored army, and he immediately fell to the ground with a dead face. muttered to himself:
"It's over, it's over...... It's all over. ”
“......”
Aisha's face turned red and white, and her breathing rate became faster and faster, and she suddenly cast her eyes on the online person.
"You idiot, it's all because of you, and the master's plan failed. I'm going to be done with it, too. The other party did not seem to understand the meaning of her gaze, and cursed as if madly:
"You're dead, your daughter is dead, she's going to be the most sought-after secret prostitute in the underground brothel!"
"No, it won't. ”
Miss Dryad shook her head. Suddenly, he took out a dagger from his satchel and flew in front of him like a female beast, the blade instantly pierced his heart, and blood red rushed out like a waterfall.
"You ......"
The informant's eyes widened in disbelief, and the expression froze on a pale face.
"As long as you're dead, no one knows who I am, like that...... Your family and my family should be able to survive...... The premise is that your master's words count. ”
Aisha whispered in his ear as she let go of her hands and let her body collapse to the ground, taking a few steps backwards and falling back into her seat.
The next moment, the door to the room was kicked open, and Beverly poured into the room with several guards, looking at the informant's corpse and then at the dryad who was slumped in his seat.
"Ruthless!"
The red-haired boy's eyelids jumped, he didn't expect that the other party still had the courage to kill people in this situation, it seemed that he was negligent.
Silently writing down this lesson, he said with a blushing face:
"I seem to be underestimating you a little. ”
"I don't know what you're talking about, this man tried to rape me, and I killed him by mistake, so you can catch it if you want. Aisha closed her eyes and said in a trembling voice.
"Take her away!" Beverly snorted coldly and waved back.
The two black-faced guards immediately strode forward, stretched out their ape arms, lifted the tree elf from their seats like rabbits, grabbed her two arms, and walked towards the door.
Aisha opened her eyes, as if holding the last straw, and said hurriedly:
"Wait a minute! I'm going to contact a lawyer!"
"Lawyer?"
The red-haired boy gave a sneer on his face, looked at the back of the tree elf, and said in a cold voice:
"I'm sorry, this is the Celtic Province, we are not the bailiffs, we have no courts, we don't have the lawyer you want, the governor's order is everything. ”
After speaking, he raised his chin at the guard: "Take this woman away, be careful not to let her commit suicide." ”
......
The closure of the Champagne tavern is like a death knell for some, but for the local population, it is just an after-dinner conversation, and few people care about where those who have been taken have ended up.
Aisha was put into a carriage by the guards and transported to Glamorgan, west of Dunlun City, along with a large number of innocent and unlucky people caught in the tavern.
Along the way, the Dryad is like a delicate puppet that breathes, completely unresponsive to the outside world, so much so that the guards guarding her need to deliberately push and shove from time to time to check for signs of Aisha's life.
It's finally coming to an end......
This may not be a bad ending, at least, he hasn't had time to hurt Alasia, Emma...... I hope she can live well......
The road continued to stretch forward, and she opened her eyes from time to time to look around, and found that she had not reached the end, and her calm heart would change with a trace of ripples, both happy and regretful.
Finally, the carriage stopped, and in front of it was a spacious courtyard full of spring, the scent of jasmine and cinnamon wafted in the air, and red or yellow fruits dotted among the branches and leaves.
The Dryad was crossed by the guards, walked through the stone-paved vestibule, passed the straight, and approached the hall of the Earl's Court.
Looking at the tall figure with her back to her, Aisha stopped, confirmed her memory and judgment one last time, and then called out the title that she hadn't called for a long time:
"Your Excellency. ”
"See you again, Miss Aisha. ”
Yare turned, put down the golden spear in his hand, squared it on the weapon rack beside him, and looked at the pale but calm face of the tree elf:
"I never imagined that the third meeting between you and me would take place in this form. ”
"I killed someone...... The owner of the tavern tried to assault me, and I killed him by mistake. Aisha subconsciously moved her gaze to the floor, lowered her voice a few degrees, and said weakly:
"If you're going to execute me, do it. ”
"She's lying!"
Beverly's voice came with the sound of his footsteps.
"I can be 100% sure that this woman has an ulterior motive to approach Alcya. ”
The red-haired boy walked up to the tree elf, glanced at her, and said in a loud voice:
"Her murder was clearly deliberate, and through the scrutiny along the way, the bartender at the tavern had confessed, and the woman often went to the special room to spend time with the bar owner. ”
"So what?"
Aisha didn't look at him, and calmly defended:
"I only have business dealings with him, and we don't know each other well, and no one knows what that guy is doing today, and he is going to violate me in the middle of talking about it. ”
"Miss Aisha, you are really a good talker. ”
Beverly walked up to her, stared at those bright eyes, and said in a weird way, "It's a pity that dead people can't speak, can they?"
The dryad avoided his gaze, took a deep breath, and said lightly:
"I don't understand what you mean. ”
"It's okay if you don't understand...... Can you explain that?"
The red-haired boy took out a glass bottle containing white powder from his arms, shook it in front of Aisha, and asked with a sneer:
"Why is there this thing in your accommodation, why is it stored in the cellar of the Champagne tavern? ”
"Sleeping pills only, sir. ”
Aisha's heart shook violently, and she bit her delicate thin lip, arguing tenaciously: "That guy sells this sleeping pill privately, it works very well, I often have insomnia, I need to take it to calm my mind." ”
"Oh...... Sleeping pill. ”
Beverly deliberately made a look of sudden realization, withdrew the glass bottle in his hand, stared into her eyes and asked:
"In that case, tell me why you would buy sleeping pills from a tavernkeeper, what is the name of this medicine, what is the unit price, and how much should you take at a time?"
"It'...... It was by coincidence that I first came to Celtic and stayed there...... Then insomnia all night...... The tavern owner recommended this medicine to me. I don't know its name either...... Seemingly...... The boss called him white powder, and the unit price was twenty soles a bottle...... The dosage is about ten carats of ounces at a time. ”
After the tree elf barely finished answering the other party's question, beads of sweat were already faintly visible on his white forehead.
Beverly narrowed his eyes, and after a moment of silence, a smile finally appeared on his face:
"You're lying!" (To be continued.) )
