===========================================================================
Curris and Wang Xiaoming successfully "circled" back, and at the same time brought back a group of panicked aristocratic officials. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 As a result, the news of the death of a nobleman and a great nobleman spread to everyone in the entire hall in an instant.
"Dead people? In the Imperial Palace, there are dead people?"
The nobles and officials looked at each other, first in shock, and then in panic. The first thing they thought of was not that the palace had been invaded by foreign enemies, but that their Emperor Picca wanted to take the opportunity of tonight to eradicate some hostile forces in the political situation, and the great nobles who were killed were such a target.
"Your Majesty, please explain! What the hell is going on?" the nobles, who had been temporarily united by their suspicions, questioned Emperor Picca. The officials of the towns were less worried when they knew what was going on, they were loyal to the royal family, and the emperor would not harm them. The rest of the lower nobles, such as Earl Drionne, also recovered from the initial panic, watching the powerful middle and upper nobles "shout" at the emperor.
As a result, the party hall became noisy and uncontrollable.
"Quiet. ”
Emperor Pica's calm and majestic voice immediately caused the gathered nobles to put away their words. His Majesty the Emperor's strength and majesty are well known, and if it makes too much trouble, it may outweigh the losses later. After all, they are now in the home field of the royal family, and even if they each bring a part of the territorial troops, they can't stand the elite troops of the country stationed in Hoh Xili, just point to the end.
They wanted to see what the emperor had to say. As for the death of the great noble, they did not pay much attention, only concerned about the "death" of the great noble, whether it meant that the royal family would have any actual actions.
"Curris, tell me what you see. Putting the nobles aside for the time being, Picca turned to Curris, who had returned, for details. The atmosphere of the whole venue became very delicate, the social process was interrupted, the middle and upper class nobles came to put pressure on the royal family, and the others stayed in their positions to watch the two parties, and Picca was able to ask Curis next to him calmly in full view, and Wang Xiaoming, who returned to the last seat, had to admire the strength of His Majesty the Emperor.
"Well, although it's still not as good as me. ”
Curris whispered to Picca: "At present, I have found two great nobles of the dead, Duke Henk is one of them, both of them were killed in the bathroom, and several guards also died in it, the way of death was very cruel, and the head was directly divided. But the perpetrator was not found, and there was no trace. I suggest stopping the party, sending soldiers to search, and letting everyone here stay in the hall first. ”
Picaca nodded slightly, he walked up to the nobles, and said solemnly: "Everyone, I am only aware of this sudden incident. ”
"Do you know, Your Excellency, are you fooling us? This is your palace! Something happened in the palace, don't you know?"
"In the report of the investigator Curris, it seems that in addition to the corpses of the great nobles, the corpses of the Sea Clan have also been found, right? Picaca asked Curris.
"Yes, the bodies of the Sea Clan have been found, and I found this in two nearby bathrooms. Therefore, I believe that this should be an assassination operation planned by the Sea Clan, and it is unclear whether it was an individual or collective act. ”
The faces of the nobles and officials present at the "Sea Clan ......" began to change, the problem of the Sea Clan was indeed a problem that had always existed in the Xili Empire, but they did not expect the Sea Clan to be so bold as to act directly in the palace.
"That's what Curris said. If you have dealt with him a lot, you should know him very well. There was seldom a mistake in what he said, and even I couldn't get him to tell a lie. "And, in order to double-check how many 'omissions' there are at the scene, and please return to your places, I have sent guards to help seal off the palace so that no other sea clan escapes from the palace." They have been at odds with us for a long time, and it's safer for everyone to stay in the hall. ”
What Picca said was so reasonable, coupled with the fact that he looked at the nobles of the great power one by one, and the majesty from the emperor forced these middle- and upper-class nobles to sit back in their positions one by one.
"Curris, you have the men to lock off all the entrances to this hall. ”
"Yes. ”
"Isuzu, protect Bilika. ”
"I'm going to give everything to get it done. "Sendo Isuzu pulled out a smoothbore gun from behind him, this is a magic weapon tailored for Chito Isuzu by the Xili Empire, a special weapon exclusive to me.
Picaca looked at Lashlit Ward, "Master Ward, maybe the enemy behind this is really sent by the forces of the three clans, and it seems that he wants you to make a move." The other party's whereabouts are uncertain, and there is a good chance that they will attack us and take the seal while we are not looking. ”
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The seal is a matter of survival for the Xili Empire and the mainland, and I will do everything I can to prepare for it. This hall has entered the scope of my detection, and no one can escape my detection technique. Leslitt Ward took a deep breath and clasped her hands together, she didn't use any magic props, she just relied on what her body had.
"Master, do you need someone to provide you with a prop subsidy now?"
"No, for me, props are mostly negative. ”
The atmosphere at the scene gradually became dull, there was no socialization, no conversation, everyone was nervously waiting for the development of the situation, waiting for the possible flashpoint.
The layout of the hall remained largely unchanged, and Curris began to walk around the venue. Other than that, no one dares to step out of their seat in such a grim atmosphere at this time. Raclit Ward was at the side of Emperor Picca, responsible for protecting His Majesty's safety, and also responsible for monitoring the entire venue and the "heirlooms" placed in the front row.
Outside the hall may have started to work, but the people in the hall sat quietly in their seats, and at most they whispered to each other.
Just like Wang Xiaoming's table:
Gnevere: "Xiaoming, have the people you sent out really already in action? Now they're all on guard. Can you still get the seal?"
"Actually, I don't know. Wang Xiaoming looked at the treasure in front of him, "I am already in a state of 'lost contact' with her." What she's doing, I can't see. ”
"Huh, aren't you?"
Ji Ya covered her sister's mouth in time to prevent her from speaking out without her brain.
"And what did you say to her?"
"Hmm, I remember that in the end, it seemed like I wanted her to ...... in the open."
At the same moment, there was a knock on the door from outside the entrance gate.
And Wang Xiaoming finished the last two words at this time.
“...... In. ”
The knock on the door sounded slowly but rhythmically, and the whole hall could be heard clearly.
Curris happened to be in front of the entrance door, and when he heard the knock, he only felt a chill hit his neck again.
