Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Shadowless Diner

Renault brought a pot with red peppers to the table by the window, the first time Chef Harry had made a hot pot under his direction. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although it lacked some flavor, it also made Renault addicted.

Vivi only tasted a little bit and didn't dare to eat it anymore, but the old butler Henry ate it very happily, and while slowly sending the food to his mouth, he said breathlessly, "Not bad, not bad."

So much so that after this dinner, it was almost late at night.

"I don't know if it's to your liking," Renault said to himself as if he was talking to himself, "If you don't like it, I'll prepare something else for you when I eat hot pot in the future." ”

At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and soon came to the door of the town hall, and when he heard the sound, Renault knew that it was the black whirlwind returning.

In the middle of the night, could it be that Charlotte is back?

He hurried downstairs, and Badge had already taken the horse.

"Lord Renault, it has blood on it, it's still fresh!"

"What about people?" Renault suddenly had a bad feeling.

"No one, just it came back. ”

Renaud took the candle and saw that the black whirlwind had a lot of blood on his body and a knot around his neck, which was the ornament on the dress made for Charlotte by the tailor on the New Year.

His heart sank fiercely, it was Charlotte who had an accident!

But why is this happening, Momiji and Anna? Supposedly, they should take care of Charlotte, unless they ......

"Gather three teams of guards immediately, and you will lead the team to redwood town!" Renault said, pulling out the short musket from the guard next to him and pinning it to his waist.

"Lord Renault, where are you going?" Seeing that Renault had already turned over and got on his horse, Badge hurriedly asked.

"Badge, you arrange it first, we are not here during this time, let Miley expand the warning net to thirty kilometers. In the event of an enemy attack, protect Black Iron Town by all means. ”

After saying that, Renault galloped away.

Knowing the seriousness of the situation, Baji immediately gathered thirty escorts, armed them and armed with two horses.

"Buck," Lauren grabbed the reins of him before leaving, and he was a little anxious that he could not follow Renault due to his serious injuries, and he was no longer in serious trouble, but he could not participate in the fight.

"What the hell is going on?"

"I don't know, I guess something happened to Sequoia. Badge explained briefly.

Lauren thought for a while, and immediately said: "Then you can't go like this, there are more than twenty small crossbow cannons in the warehouse, and I will ask people to bring them all to you." ”

"Then what are you doing in a daze, if you don't hurry up, Lord Renault will be here!"

Renault lay on the back of the black whirlwind, and the cold wind blew so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.

Fortunately, Black Whirlwind's vision at night is also very amazing, and he can find his way to Sequoia Town without his command at all.

The distance of more than 200 kilometers, at the speed of the black whirlwind, can be reached until dawn, but Renault feels that it is still too slow.

Charlotte must have reported to him in this way, something very serious must have happened.

He instantly thought of David, the serpent-like guy with the 16th Demon Spirit, the Blade.

Anna once said that she was no match for David.

With Charlotte's mind, there is Red Leaf shelter in Sequoia Town, and he is the only one who has the courage to hurt her.

Renault still remembers his sinister gaze.

If he dares to do anything to Charlotte, Renault swears that he will be torn to pieces!

In the midst of worry and anxiety, Redwood Town is already in sight.

The black whirlwind slowly stopped on a hill, and Renault frowned at Sequoia's closed gates and torch-filled walls, and the heavily armed soldiers in the flickering firelight.

It seems that things are more troublesome than expected.

Renault left the Black Whirlwind where he was, then crept his way to the blackest section of the wall.

......

The walls of Redwoodtown are not very high, and they are all made of adobe mixed with fine stone, which makes it very convenient for Renault to climb over the wall.

The last time he visited, Renault had already memorized the terrain of Redwoodtown. Evading the guards on the city walls, Renault took advantage of the shadow of the house and unknowingly arrived at Charlotte's inn.

The inn was empty, and there was no candle flame at all.

A strong smell of blood made Reynoldton feel bad.

He touched Charlotte's room and found the door open, with a pool of blood on the floor in the doorway.

His heart was cold, if the blood was Charlotte's, then she was already very lucky.

But soon he calmed down, and there was so much blood shed here that it was impossible for Charlotte to run to the stables, which should have belonged to someone else.

So he crept to the stable, and although there was blood on the ground, there was not much, and Renaud relaxed a little.

Charlotte must have been caught.

She was injured and couldn't make it back to Black Iron with Black Whirlwind, so she let Black Whirlwind come back alone.

And then...... She should have escaped, no matter how big Sequoia Town is, it is difficult for an outsider who is not familiar with the terrain to hide, Renault analyzed, Charlotte should still be arrested.

With her intelligence and cleverness, she could probably hide for four or five hours, and it was not long before she was captured.

As for the autumn leaves......

Looking at Sequoia Town's heavily guarded appearance, he suddenly understood that he was afraid that something might happen to Momiji.

At all costs...... He had to find Momiji first.

Looking at the Lord's Mansion, which was still lit up, Renault quietly approached it.

Matthew sat in the cold room, the icy wind shining through the window, shaking the candles on the wall, making the shadows on the ground sway like ghosts.

There was a slight knock on the door, and before he could get his permission, an emaciated figure walked in.

He stood in the shadows behind Matthew, his sharp eyes staring at his back like a viper.

"I've done what you said. Matthew said without looking back, his voice carrying the weariness of an old man, "You should keep your promise and let go of Momiji." ”

"Master Matthew, that's not all we say. David said coldly.

"What do you want? Redwoodtown's guards are all in your hands, and you can attack Blackiron whenever you want. ”

"These people in Redwood Town alone are not enough, we need all the troops in the Tuke Basin. ”

"Delusional!" Matthew turned angrily and glared at David in the dark, "Redwood Town is my biggest concession, don't think about any of the others." ”

"Hehe, Master Matthew, don't be angry with me, I'm just a messenger," David laughed, "You don't have to send troops to Black Iron Town, but the lower reaches of the Naxi River will never be open to you. ”

Matthew clenched his fists tightly, and the green veins on his forehead bulged.
