=========================================
The sword stabbed into Count Henk's heart in one fell swoop, piercing through his body. After a moment's consciousness, Duke Henk fell to the ground and died. It happened so suddenly that Duke Henk didn't even have the slightest time to react, and it was only at the end that he noticed the mark of the Sea Clan on the murderer's neck, and only before he died did he realize that it was the Sea Clan who killed him, and this Sea Clan even blatantly appeared in the heavily guarded palace.
Could this be what Picca really aimed......
It's a pity that Duke Henk doesn't have time to think about it. His consciousness grew lighter and lighter, until it finally dissolved into nothingness. The body fell to the edge of the compartment in accordance with gravity, and slowly fell to the ground.
"Is it dead......"
Even if she succeeded in assassinating the other party with a momentary secret stab, the Sea Clan woman still had a nervous and hesitant look on her face, she was not sure if the other party had been killed by her own blow, in case she pretended to be dead, she would be the one who was killed. So slowly, step by step, she stretched out her hand and shook the duke's body a few times, and only after she was sure that the other party's body was indeed dead, she exhaled softly.
"It worked. โ
The man sent by the Emperor told her that as long as she could successfully assassinate Duke Henk at this time tonight, she would be released "secretly". Although the result of the external title is "fleeing", the royal family will protect her in secret.
With a desire to survive and encouragement from the mysterious boy on the boat, the Sea Tribesman chose to accept the deal of the Emperor's envoy in her captivity, and she became the "knife" to assassinate Duke Henk. As for the problems of the dukedom, and how the members of the duke's family will be treated in the future, these are not issues that she needs to care about, and Emperor Picca will naturally "deal with it" on her behalf.
"The soldiers outside will help me cover up, now just fiddle with his corpse and wipe the blood trails, and my mission is complete. And then...... It's time to meet Narvi. โ
However, we must not let up yet, the task is not yet complete.
The Sea Clan, who was not much different from the average Terran (and the difference was only in the mark on his neck), carefully fiddled the body of Duke Henk back to its normal sitting position, and then wiped the blood sprayed in the compartment with a rag that had been prepared. The smaller size of the chamber prevented the blood from spurting out of the duke's heart too far, and it was a little less bothersome to clean up the scene, which was a slightly comforting thing, and perhaps the assassination site was arranged here.
Even the guards who passed by Duke Henk were deliberately trying to lure him to the more remote bathroom, without telling him that he actually had a closer location.
All of this is to make this sea tribe woman achieve the effect of assassination. And in terms of results, the effect is done.
After hurriedly cleaning the inside of the cubicle, the layout of the cubicle became the same as at the beginning, and Duke Henk was still sitting "quietly" on the toilet equipment, with a "pensive" expression. All of them seem to have not changed, and the only thing that has changed, perhaps, is that the man in contemplation is not a living man, but a dead man.
"Whew...... Well, it worked. The Sea Clan girl breathed a sigh of relief, and it was basically all dealt with. His Majesty the Emperor has made her do what she has done, and all that remains is to leave Hoh Xil under the secret escort of the soldiers sent by the royal family.
But at this moment-
"Oh, you seem to have made it. โ
Someone!
The sea girl broke out in a cold sweat in an instant: in a quiet bathroom, according to the "plan", it was absolutely impossible for anyone to appear here except for a few guards waiting outside - however, the reality was that there was indeed a sound behind her.
The voice was a female voice, and it sounded like a little girl's voice in timbre. Why did the little girl break in?Why didn't the guards outside stop her?Why didn't she make a sound when she walked in?You know, in the process of dealing with the scene just now, the Sea Clan girl almost forcibly raised all her attention to the limit, and any wind and grass outside the compartment, she relied on her unique sense of touch in the Sea Clan group, and she was confident that she could sense all movements.
It's just that she didn't notice the movement of the girl behind her.
Who the hell is it? Is it someone sent by the Emperor? Or is it something else......
"Don't turn your back on me, Sister Sea Clan. Turn to look at me. Otherwise, you may not have a chance. From the tone of her voice, it sounded that the little girl's personality must be very playful and playful.
And after hearing the other party's last words, the sea tribe girl seemed to hear something, and began to tremble gradually from her heart to her body, and she turned around slowly, very slowly. It seems that as soon as he sees the girl's face, he will die instantly.
She had this hunch, even if it was so strange to think about.
Turning around, what appeared in front of her was a girl who looked to be only eleven or twelve years old, with short pink and purple hair, and dressed in a gothic dress. Everything was so ordinaryโexcept for her sudden appearance in this place where she shouldn't be, and the life-length scythe she was holding.
The girl had an innocent smile on her face, which seemed innocent and cute to ordinary people, but in the eyes of the Sea Clan girl, this smile seemed to be a mockery, or a teasing. She saw everything just now and thought it was an interesting drama.
"You...... Who is it?"
"My name is Rei. This is a tribute to the fruits of your hard work, rejoice. โ
The girl named "Ling" smiled and put her index finger to her lips and said softly to the sea tribe girl:
"It seems that the words 'come on' are really encouraging to you, and I can't help but be surprised. I didn't expect that a small sentence could really produce such a big power, you impressed me. โ
The Sea Clan girl was stunned.
"Are you ......?"
"But it's time to recycle. โ
The girl tilted her head and smiled, and as soon as her words fell, the sickle in her hand suddenly turned cold.
The compartment of the washroom was stained with blood again.
"Plus a few outside, there should be about seven, and then look to see if there are any other orders. โ
......
"Oops, I don't know what's going on with her. โ
In the hall of the party, the social ceremonies of the nobles and officials were still going on, and in this kind of large meeting hall with the presence of the emperor himself, they naturally had to show their social skills in order to make their reputation in the empire slightly improved.
Wang Xiaoming, Ji Ya and Gnavier have been eating dinner seriously in line with the principle of "if I don't move, I won't go out", and only when they can't eat at all can they stop the utensils in their hands. Since the royal family has been fully prepared for tonight, no matter how much they eat, they basically can't finish eating.
And this has been going on for a while.
"Xiaoming, aren't you going to act? Although it may not be true, it is very likely that the sealed object is right in front of us, that is, the delicate diamond necklace. Do you have to wait for these people to prepare to leave before you start the operation?" Ji Ya looked at Wang Xiaoming and asked. The other party has not moved, which is a point that she is very confused.
"Didn't I act?" Wang Xiaoming asked Ji Ya rhetorically, with a smug smile on his face.
When Ji Ya heard this, she began to think in her heart.
"At the very least, you didn't act. โ
"Yes, I didn't take action myself, but that doesn't mean I didn't do anything. With his hands spread out, Wang Xiaoming had a look of "you are still too young", and he saw that Gnavier next to him was full of unhappiness.
Ji Ya frowned, "You shouldn't be ......?"
The door was opened, and a guard came in with a slightly anxious face, and the surrounding nobles didn't pay too much attention, but Wang Xiaoming noticed, and his smile became even brighter.
"Look, isn't the action coming?"
The guard anxiously walked up to Emperor Picca and whispered in his ear:
"Your Majesty, the bathroom is full of corpses and bloodstains. From the appearance of the observation, it can be concluded that it is the planned sea clan and six guards. โ
Emperor Pica's expression finally changed dramatically.
"Could it be that there is a third force?"
Or is it really here to steal the seal?
