Chapter 218 Peeling Back the Cocoon: Hitting the Right Side
The arrival of the Knights of the Crescent and the subsequent Guards of Crescent City heralded the absurdity, chaos, and bloodshed that had lasted for most of the night to an end. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
However, it still took a lot of trouble to quell the lingering vicious fight in the square.
Then, the square is being cleared, order is being restored, the wounded are being treated, the dead are being taken away, and the rest are being arrested and tortured to prison.
Officials from various departments also came, and quickly put into work, investigating and investigating, pacifying the people, counting losses, allocating materials, and arranging temporary resettlement sites......
All the aftermath work is being carried out in an orderly manner.
This sleepless night has just begun.
Ye Guyun, who left the Civic Theater, hurriedly returned home, hurriedly bathed and changed clothes, and then, without stopping for a moment, immediately rushed to the castle. He knew that tonight was destined to be a place of war full of swords and swords, and the danger was even more dangerous than the bloody battle that had just subsided.
The fact is that, whether you want it or not, a huge storm like a catastrophe has been generated, it is brewing, it is growing, it is about to take shape, and soon, it will land and wreak havoc in the apocalyptic momentum, and if it is not dealt with well, it will be in danger of overturning.
The family is overturned, and the whole city is overturned.
......
Arriving at the castle, Frank was already waiting. There is no time to stop and elaborate, so I can only let Frank explain some of the latest news as I go.
“...... Well, yes, everyone who should have come has come, all in the conference room, Ferreira, Femien Jr., Uncle Chalonbas, Thiago, ......" Frank shook his head with a frowning brow, looking distressed, "Of course, there is already a heated dispute. Well, it's not quite right to say it's an argument, it's basically just Ferreira and Feminion Jr. pointing at their father's nose and scolding loudly, and they're going crazy about the incident...... There is no way to avoid it, there is nothing to do, who told them to occupy the big reason this time?"
"Little Femien?" The name made Ye Guyun frown immediately, "What is he doing here?"
"Ah, I forgot to say," Frank patted his head, "that's right, and at the same time that Bero was killed, several 'thorns' (the few extreme fanatics identified among the arriving outcasts) in the new building in the former slave camp were also assassinated. The coroner had examined it, and it was clear that the wounds, the murder weapon, and the modus operandi of the murder were very similar to those suffered by Bero, and it could even be assumed that the murderer was the same person, but they were killed almost at the same time......"
"So, the murderer is not a single person, but a group of people, and then, inferring from the similar assassination methods of this group of people, they are likely to be a huge group with a well-organized and even mature training system that can systematically train a large number of professional killers?" Ye Guyun muttered to himself.
"Everybody thinks so. Frank replied.
"Who could it be?" Ye Guyun said again.
"Perhaps......" Frank slushed, "it's the Shadow Dagger." ”
"Shadow Dagger?" Ye Guyun raised his eyebrows, "Heh, did everyone guess it was them?"
"Hmm. Frank pursed his lips, "The large evil organization that has had a deep enmity with us recently, it seems that only the shadow dagger ......"
Poor shadow dagger, innocently lying gun......
"Okay, let's just think it's the Shadow Dagger, but what about the motive? Seriously, from beginning to end, I don't understand, I can't understand it, I don't think they themselves have a strong motive to commit the crime," Ye Guyun rubbed his chin and pondered repeatedly, "In essence, the Shadow Dagger has always been a gray organization that collects money and does things, well, it's just a little too evil and too powerful." They are profit-seeking, they can be bought, they see the wind and steer, and if they have milk, they are mothers, so why should they do it for the lives of a few ordinary members, with their evil nature, they probably don't care too much, right? -- they don't even have to bargain, and they want to fight to the end with a powerful family with a strong side? What do they think they are? Can they be so stupid and so strong?"
"I believe the answer is no," Ye Guyun shook his head, "Unless ......"
"Unless there's someone else behind it!" she firmly enveloped the entire Shadow Dagger with an offer that she couldn't refuse!" blurted out, Frank aloud this imminent conclusion, and at this point, he couldn't help but get excited, scratching his head and ears and began to guess the identity of the person behind the scenes, "Who could it be?" It didn't take much effort to think of the most likely candidate.
"Uh...... Lady Electorate?" Frank said with difficulty, "Well, yes, it's just her...... Didn't the Shadow Dagger be assigned by her in the first place, and besides, her hostility towards us has always been the most intense......"
Ye Guyun didn't speak, but his expression obviously showed that he also agreed with this judgment.
Come on, a mess of blind guessing, in the end, I still guessed the head of the main owner, such a crooked hit, he meowed really crooked......
After a pause, Ye Guyun said with a sigh: "If the mastermind behind the scenes is really that voter lady, I can only say that she is really an outstanding conspirator! Her heart is poisonous enough, her methods are spicy enough, her appetite is big enough, and her teeth are good enough, and she is really powerful! Her hand is clearly to sow discord between us and the First National Defense Force in the West and Plant County in one fell swoop! It is to give those two sides an excuse to go down in person, roll up their sleeves and pull out the posture to fight us openly...... Hmph, superficial, straightforward, but effective, it's a conspiracy, it's also a conspiracy......"
"So, she succeeded, hit it with one blow, the effect was immediate, it was a complete success, and there was no controversy......," Frank smiled bitterly ugly, "Everything has been calculated by her, and she can't escape! Even if the two parties actually know that this is the conspirator's ulterior motives, this is a head-to-toe trick to treat them like idiots, they are still willing to follow the script set by the conspirators, to attack, to spill, to bite indiscriminately, and they are also very active and eager!"
"Hehe, it's not hard to understand, this is the inevitable reaction that they don't even have to think about!" Frank became more and more excited, "How can the typical high-ranking of the Republic like Ferreira and Femien the Younger dream of being able to overthrow the last evil dictatorship in this great free country with their own hands...... Hmph, they're already excited, aren't they? Just waiting to show off their skills? The reproaches in the conference room are just appetizers......
After listening silently and shaking his head, Ye Guyun said lightly: "They won't succeed, I promise." ”
Hearing this, Frank's face became very strange: "Guarantee? Ye, are you really going to do that?"
Ye Guyun said coldly: "Hmph, if they can be able to distinguish their interests, then forget it, otherwise, why not?"
Frank swallowed, "Uh, are you sure?"
"Sure?" Ye Guyun glanced at him, smiled, and didn't answer, but asked rhetorically, "Let me ask you, are you ready here?"
"Uh, no problem, it's all ready as you asked. Frank replied.
Ye Guyun asked again: "What about the city guards, what about the knights, are they all in place, are they all in place, are they all in order, and have you notified Archmage Osma?"
Frank had to summarize: "Yes, it's all done." ”
Immediately, Ye Guyun spread his hands: "So, what else is there to worry about?"
Frank was dumbfounded, and although he couldn't argue, he really wanted to shout in his ear, "Don't worry, you're ready to fight those two head-on!" In the end, after all, he knew that the arrangement had been decided and it was difficult to change it, so he had to respond with anxiety: "I hope so." ”
Ye Guyun was relieved: "Relax, in fact, Ferreira and Feminne are not difficult to deal with, the really difficult ......" Speaking of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It's still the voter lady!"
"Now that we have decided that the lady was responsible for all the assassinations, what about the adventurer's riot? Why did this great riot happen tonight? Is there a connection between the two? Did it just happen to catch up and take advantage of it? Or was it all a whole plan that came from her? If so, her energy was too strong!"
Sighing, Ye Guyun continued: "Moreover, we have to take into account that from the arrival of the first batch of displaced people, then the arrival of the visiting group from the three counties, to tonight, it will only take 4 days to complete the battle! And she has figured out the situation in these 4 days, conceived a conspiracy, and raised enough manpower to put it into practice......
"Heh, it's still when we've blocked the news in advance! You have to consider the huge time cost that inevitably comes from transmitting information back and forth - hasn't she been staying in Silvermoon City all the time? I wonder how she managed to be so precise and fast in remote control......
After a long pause, he said again: "To be able to do this, I can only praise her with admiration, her hands and eyes are heavenly!"
Frank was so cold sweat that he was about to break out when he heard it, and shook his head again and again: "Ye, don't say it, the more I say it, the more panicked I feel......"
Ye Guyun ignored him and continued: "Actually, I also thought of an unfounded inference. Perhaps, the Elect Lady is in the Crescent at this moment, she has left the well-known station and quietly come to the Crescent City, lurking beside us...... In this way, all these frightening 'powerful energies' and 'hands and eyes reach the sky' can have a reasonable, not unacceptable, explanation......"
"It's understandable that it's difficult to sit in person or even do it yourself......"
Hey, again, crooked.
Frank thought and thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, I would also prefer to believe this inference. One is a powerful but still understandable enemy, and the other is an enemy that is completely incomprehensible, and normal people are more willing to face the former...... But if this assumption is correct, then wouldn't we be in great danger of allowing a powerful and extreme enemy to lurk around us all the time...... Oops, it's horrible!"
Seeing that he was about to walk to the conference room, he could hear the fierce sound coming from there, shaking his head, pointing ahead, Ye Guyun said: "We have enough time to confirm this judgment, and even find out this mysterious and terrifying voter lady...... But now, as you can see, we're going to have to get to grips with Ferreira and Femien Jr. first!"
Frank was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, absolutely!"
......
In the conference room, there is a mess, not referring to the environment or objects, but to the whole atmosphere of the scene.
The people on the side of Crescent City are like flowers and plants that are undergoing the baptism of wind and rain, wilting, shy, scattered, and depressed. Only the Grand Duke was still holding his head high, holding his waist high, facing the storm head-on with a serious face--it was indeed rain! The Grand Duke's face was definitely not stained with saliva on the other side.
Anyway, you have to take off your hat to the Grand Duke, for this super patience of spitting on your face, and for this responsibility for the sake of the family inheritance.
Ferreira and Feminke on the opposite side are completely different, these two guys are two super-powered hair dryers at all, and they are driving at full power throughout the whole process.
Of course, because of the lip service, relatively speaking, the power of the hair dryer is greater.
At this moment, perhaps finally unwilling to be in the limelight all the time, Ferreira decided to show something, he stood up, slammed the table, pointed at the Grand Duke, raised his eyebrows angrily, and shouted: "Thurman! I will only repeat it again! If you don't get a satisfactory explanation, you just wait for me to lead the troops into Crescent City!"
So mighty! so domineering!
However, it has become a convention, every time this kind of villain pretends to be forced, someone will always run out and slap his face, this time, it is Ye Guyun's turn.
He just happened to come to the door and listened to this dialogue completely, immediately smiled, strode in, and said in a loud voice: "It's a pity, you will never have such a chance!"
