Chapter 171: The Prince's Suspicion.

readx;? That night, Count Akmund French had returned from his office. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoHe's a much harder count than a normal count, because he not only has to deal with the affairs of the town, but also has to deal with the demands of the mentally retarded prince.

"Alas, if he hadn't been a prince, I'm afraid he would have been killed with a machete. ”

The Count muttered to himself, his tone full of helplessness and sorrow.

Whoever meets a prince who likes to be stabbed in the back will not feel good. It is a pity that the Earl of Akmund was favored by the emperor, and no one ever thought of usurping the throne or anything.

He was indeed a very reliable and loyal servant.

Next to the Count stood a stopper, who responded to the Count's question.

"Lord Earl, although His Royal Highness the Prince is not sensible, he is still our prince...... You shouldn't ......"

"Alright, alright, alright!" said the Count, waving his hand like a child refusing to eat, "I know you're going to talk about me again, right, right, wrong, wrong!"

Butler: "......" (indifferent)

"Lord Earl, I know that you are still young, but the etiquette that needs to be observed should be observed. ”

"Understood, understood, understood......" replied impatiently, the Count.

Judging by his appearance, it is clear that the Earl is not a scheming and wise man. Perhaps it was a matter of heirs, the Earl of Akmund looked so young, looking to be in his twenties.

To be exact, he is only in his twenties.

"Gretel, what is the matter with the demons hanging from the walls?" said the Count, sitting in his chair, covering his face.

"All dead, Lord Earl. ”

"Oh, is it dead? can you be sure?" asked the Earl, a little uneasy.

"Our men have gone up and carefully probed, and it is true that there is no breath of life anymore, please rest assured, Lord Earl. ”

"Huh......," the Count exhaled, "That's fine, remember to block the news." Let's just say that we intercepted it. ”

"Yes, Lord Count. Just ......"

The Count sat up straight, "Just what?"

"It's just that His Royal Highness the Prince seems to have made a bit of a serious commotion. ”

"What? How dare he make trouble?"

"Lord Earl, after all, he has only mastered this power for a day...... We do this as if we are deliberately suppressing them. ”

"Gan!" the Count seemed to be angry, blushing and exhaling heavily. "We're helping him! Does he really think that these rats are a force to be excited about? It's a killing disaster! Didn't he think about the serious consequences if his brother found out about it?"

"Lord Earl, they are at odds with us after all...... butler is also helpless.

The Count waved his hand, "Forget it, let them go...... I don't care. ”

"Your Excellency the Earl is wise. The butler said duly.

"Okay Gretel, you've been following me for so many years, and you should know a little bit that I don't like flattery, go and pour me a cup of tea. ”

"Yes, Lord Count. It's just that the etiquette should be observed......"

"Okay, okay, okay......" He was also helpless.

The Count drank the black tea brought by the butler, and sat down in his chair and swayed refreshedly.

He only has such a short time every day to enjoy leisure. Later, he's going to a ball, which is as much as a party.

Suddenly!

There was a slight movement in the window behind him, the curtains chattered in the cold wind, and the faint moonlight reflected through the cracks in the curtains.

"Strange, when was this window opened?"

The Count went to the window, looked out of it, and saw that there was not even a ghost.

"What's the situation......

He shook his head, then reached out and closed the window.

Catherine hung right under the window, though she escaped into the shadows without fear of being discovered. Anyone who has tried it knows that it feels like marijuana, and after trying it, they will want to try it again.

That's why Catherine didn't come out until now.

Still, she succeeded.

The lurking in the Earl's house was worth it, and it was even more important than the time Catherine used.

Judging by the conversation between the earl and the butler, the prince who lives in the town is a very important suspect. It's great to be able to identify the suspect accurately, and it saves a lot of effort.

Catherine returned to the inn where the group was. An afternoon has already made Lopez and the others very worried, how can it take so long just to investigate?

Lopez's words only take ten minutes.

Of course, such an investigation is estimated to have been fruitless.

"Catherine, you're back!"

Lopez heard the movement and jerked up from his chair. It just so happened that Catherine was opening the window from the outside and walked in.

Although he couldn't complain about why he had to come back from the window, Catherine's return still gave him a lot of surprises. It's been an afternoon, and Lopez is the most worried person in the crowd. Well, the least worried is Alatina, she's out of the mood.

"Well, I'm back. Catherine looked up and replied.

"How?"

"This may be a complicated matter, so let's talk to everyone about it. ”

Lopez nodded, then turned and walked out the door. He went to gather his companions, they were all in their respective rooms, and for the sake of the smooth operation, they had not gone out today.

The crowd gathered in Lopez's room, and Catherine recounted her experience.

"I didn't expect the situation in this town to be so complicated!"

Ramijes's exclamation was justified, as one of the Eloniers, they were incredulous about the power struggle between Akmund and the Prince. Because Eloniel has long been twisted into a rope in the long battle, the degree of unity is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

The power struggle of Akia has reached the point of using the Dark Church. This is indeed the behavior of a madman, and no normal person would choose to cooperate with a demon.

To say that there is no demon involved in this is completely unbelievable in Elonier Lopez. But here...... Maybe that's possible!

"So, Catherine, when are you going to go to the prince's castle to investigate?" There is no need to talk nonsense, Catherine just rushed over to report the situation, not that she has already completed the task, and now you can make preparations as soon as you solve it early.

Catherine looked out the window, night had fallen, and darkness had covered the land. Such a sky seemed like a good opportunity at first glance, but Catherine knew that this was the time when the enemy was most heavily defended, and there was no need to touch the egg with the stone.

So Catherine replied, "I'll go again tomorrow." ”

"Huh?" the group agreed. (To be continued.) )
