In addition, Renault has a deeper feeling. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

No matter how well he trained the Guardians, he was still powerless to resist the powerful Awakened.

In this mode of war of soldier against soldier and general against general, a strong master is sometimes even more deterrent than a strong army.

For example, Boer, Renault believed that with his strength, even if thousands of cavalry charged him, they would not be able to help him. And he can easily achieve decapitation in the midst of thousands of troops.

Therefore, it is urgent to improve your strength as soon as possible.

At the same time, he needs to recruit more awakened people and cultivate combat power like other great nobles.

At this time, the two guards came to the top of the mountain with a person, and it was actually Roshi.

His jaw was covered in blood, several teeth had been knocked out, and he had been shot through his calf by a crossbow arrow, and he was now thrown to the ground like a dead dog, and he couldn't even speak in pain.

Renaud couldn't help but feel funny: "Lord Roshi, long time no see!"

"Thunder...... Renault...... Is it really you?"

"Who else could it be if it wasn't me?"

"You...... Can you spare me?"

Saying that, he actually cried out loud, how miserable and miserable it was.

Renault didn't expect him to be so fast, and he thought he would say a few hard words like last time.

"Bucky, what do you say to do with him?"

"What else can I do, kill with one sword!" said Badge, drawing his short sword.

Frightened by him like this, Luo Xi burst into tears: "Lord Renault...... Please don't kill me, I'll promise you whatever conditions you want!"

Renaud shook his head, "It's no fun to kill him, it's better to sell it." ”

"How much is he worth?"

The squad leader glanced at Roshi with disdain, this guy was hit by arrows in two knees and wrists, and even if he was cured, he would be crippled. I have to say that the person who shot him was really amazing, and I don't know if it was intentional.

Badge suddenly realized, "But his father has money. ”

"Take it back, let his soldiers send a message to his father, if he wants Roshi, he will take 50,000 gold coins in exchange. Renault said.

......

The night in Redwoods is quiet and peaceful, and although the snow has begun to melt, the land is still frozen and the creatures are still sleeping under the thick layers of earth.

Charlotte sat alone by the silent candlelight, writing and drawing on a parchment roll with a pencil.

Mistress Reynaud was right, this kind of parchment was extremely difficult to write, but fortunately with a pencil, it could be easily erased, otherwise this parchment alone would not be enough for her to write down what she had guessed.

She has been in Sequoia Town for almost a month, and the victory at the Nameless Pass was also a few days ago.

In contrast, she cares more about her work and finds out the murderer of the "theft" of the girl.

During this period, in addition to meeting Momiji twice in the name of Renault's envoy, she secretly helped Anna investigate the girl's disappearance.

However, the murderer was extremely careful, and seemed to know that someone was investigating him, so since Charlotte found out, he stopped continuing to commit the crime.

Charlotte once went to the missing girl's room and didn't find much useful.

But there is one thing that all the sites have in common, and that is that there are metal scratches on the latches of the windows.

It is obvious that the murderer quietly opened the window while the victim was asleep and took the victim away.

There were no signs of struggle or fighting, no strange smell remaining, and none of their families heard any movement, and the victim girl felt as if she had been taken away by a ghost.

From this, she judged that the murderer was a very powerful person, and it was very likely that he was an awakened person.

This guy is extremely cunning, except that he did not leave any clues in the room, not even around the house, there is not a single footprint.

Momiji also showed enough anger at this matter to give Anna enough rights to investigate the matter.

At Charlotte's suggestion, Anna had a dozen hunting dogs with her and searched almost all of Sequoia Town and the surrounding areas, but found nothing.

According to the guards, every wagon that left Sequoia since the first girl disappeared was strictly inspected and no victims were found to have been removed.

From this, it can be concluded that the girls have either been destroyed or are still hiding somewhere.

Charlotte's ideas lean towards the latter.

Because if the murderer's ultimate goal was to kill the victim, he would not have endured it for so long without continuing to commit the crime.

But where did he hide them?

Anna had already searched from house to house with her hounds, and even sent someone to salvage the sake lees pond in the brewery.

Charlotte erased another suspicious spot from the parchment, only the last one, which had not yet been checked.

She was almost certain that even if she couldn't find the victim here, she would be able to find a very important clue.

This place is the lord's mansion of Momiji.

In fact, she began to doubt a long time ago, but she was an outsider after all, and she didn't know how to speak.

Do you want her to say to Anna that the murderer who wrath your lord is hiding in her house?

That's the Lord's Palace!

Charlotte rubbed her dry eyes, and finally made up her mind to go to the Lord's Mansion of Momiji again tomorrow.

......

"Dear Momiji-sama, Renault-sama has sent another letter. ”

Charlotte found an excuse, handed the wax-sealed mailbox to Momiji, and quietly observed everything in the lord's mansion.

Momiji opened the letterbox, in addition to Renault's greetings, there were also some small questions from him, the amount of food sent to Black Iron Town has been getting smaller and smaller recently.

Momiji read the letter calmly, and it was difficult to hide a little worry on his brow.

The plan to buy grain in the Tuke Basin went very smoothly at first, but after just over two months, everyone seemed to have sold out of grain, even her brothers, who excused themselves by saying that there was no surplus food.

But everyone knows that the Tuke Basin is known as the granary of the Oro continent, and after several years of bumper harvests, the grain reserves cannot be eaten for five years.

"Thank you, Charlotte, please tell Lord Renault, I'll figure it out as soon as possible. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Davy, the leader of the guards, walked in.

His face was pale, his eyes protruded, and he was even thinner than before, "Momiji-sama, your father, Lord Matthew, is here, and he has arrived in town. ”

Momiji was stunned.

Her father, Matthew Tuk, was a very traditional and stubborn old man, and she had hardly seen him leave the Red Keep for as long as she could remember.

Since Momiji became an adult, he has entrusted Sequoia Town to her management, and over the years, Sequoia Town has been tightly governed, and Matthew has praised Momiji many times at family meetings.

He suddenly came here without telling him, what was the matter?

came in such a hurry, I'm afraid that the comer is not good!

"Anna, gather the guards and prepare to meet your father. She commanded.

Charlotte also saw that it was wrong, so she got up and left.

As he passed by David's side, he suddenly felt a cold aura emanating from him.

She looked up and saw his razor-sharp gaze sweeping over her.

Inexplicably, Charlotte shuddered, and then looked at David, but there was an inexplicable smile on his face.

This person is dangerous.
