Phil still vividly remembers the helplessness and horror that appeared in Anna's big pretty eyes after learning the bad news.

Sure enough, Hampton Stewart was secretly placed under house arrest, and the entire office of Lok Ma Town was seized.

Because of the involvement of a powerful lord and the crime of duty, the Investigation Department under the Imperial Ministry of Security quickly sent people to Luoma Town, and Lady Demi and Anna have not been out of the mansion for three days.

At the critical moment, Catherine stepped forward and took Little Anna back to her home and protected her from gossip on the premise of ensuring that she would not use her power to interfere in the investigation.

Phil hugged the shivering Anna in his arms, comforted her gently, and even accompanied her to eat and sleep together, never leaving an inch.

He had never seen such a fragile side of Anna, who had always been happy and confident, and every time he saw the tears on her pillow, his heart was broken.

Although this incident is not within the scope of a 10-year-old's intervention, it does not mean that he will not do anything.

On the one hand, Phil is like a fierce beast guarding his cubs, showing his sharp teeth for the first time.

Through his influence and several hearty group fights, he has changed the atmosphere on campus, at least no student dares to slander in person.

On the other hand, through Edward, he bribed several case-handling personnel and obtained a lot of intelligence information.

Edward was also very sympathetic to little Anna's situation, running around, and even investigating it himself.

Finally, on the twentieth day after Hampton's house arrest, Phil went from a button left at the scene to find out what Edward had discovered, providing an important clue to the murder.

Eventually, he helped the investigation team locate the real culprit of the case, who was Doris's new neighbor and a steward in her brother's employer's family.

The steward had been fascinated by Doris's stunning beauty since the first day she arrived in Fallen Horse Town.

So after Hampton left, he broke into Doris's room and wanted to kiss Fangze.

In his opinion, such a woman will not resist desperately at all, as long as she succeeds for a while, there will never be trouble afterwards.

But I didn't expect that although Donoris was an outer room, it was a helpless move for the sake of the child and for the sake of survival, and she was not really a man, a water-based poplar.

Therefore, she resisted extremely fiercely, and cursed loudly and violently, so that he was in a hurry, so he made a heavy hand.

The French Open was a great deal, and although the man had carefully cleaned up the scene, he was betrayed by a button that had rolled under the table.

The homicide case has been solved, and the remaining embezzlement of public funds can be big or small.

Although the leaders of this investigation were directly dispatched from the imperial capital, most of the case-handling personnel were from Gaokan City, which was one of the reasons why they could be easily bribed by Phil.

If the nature of the problem is not serious, how to end it is just a matter of Brad's thoughts.

I have to say that the Hamptons once again impressed everyone.

Although he has a luxurious style on weekdays, perhaps because he has no foundation, after investigation, he really doesn't have much of a problem with money.

There were only a few small things left, and with Catherine's interference, it was easily solved by paying a fine.

After more than a month of house arrest, Hampton walked out of his room with a haggard face and saw his wife and daughter waiting outside.

Little Anna threw herself up and hugged her father, crying loudly, choking for a while, unable to breathe.

Despite Catherine's comfort and Phil's careful companionship, Nizi was completely frightened.

For Anna, who aspires to become a temple saint, her father has always been a knight who guards her.

In that young heart, she couldn't imagine what her mother would do and what she would do if her father was away.

Phil still remembers that afternoon, Hampton's tall but somewhat bloated body knelt on one knee in front of young Anna, and said with a loving and firm face: "My little saint, Daddy is your eternal knight, never leaving you, always guarding your side." ”

This made Anna burst into tears and laughed, and her swollen eyes were lying in Hampton's arms and refusing to come out.

Although this matter was resolved without danger, it does not mean that Anna does not remember the cynicism and loneliness and despair of those days.

This left a haze in her young heart, and she did not recover for many days, even if Phil tried his best, it was quite useless.

Until now, Hampton has been reinstated, but Anna still refuses to go out, except for Phil, even her former friends can't see her.

This made him very irritable, so he could only come out by the way to breathe and dissipate the depression in his heart.

This incident was also a wake-up call for him.

Phil suddenly realized that although he was a child of the family, he was too young in the first grade and was single.

Second, he lacks a force that really obeys him, and maybe it's time to talk to his grandfather.

It's too slow, time flies too slowly, and Phil is in a hurry.

While thinking about his thoughts, Phil used his spare eyes to pay attention to the reeds around him, looking for suitable materials, completely unaware of the catastrophe he was about to face.

Unexpectedly, several things that happened in the past two years would be coincidentally linked by this catastrophe.

Outside the town of Luoma, in a reed pond by the lake, several men with strange complexions are hiding there.

Counting them up, there were six of them, dressed in grass-gray coarse cloth suits, but they looked a little dirty because of the rough sleep.

Even then, it is difficult to hide their strong stature and the weapons hanging from their waists.

The first two were armed with knives, one of the more muscular men was armed with a short hammer, and the other three were hung with thin iron blades that looked like long daggers or something.

In addition, judging by their reddish complexion and short stature, it seems that they are not Warders, or rather, they are not pure-blooded Wards.

There were many mosquitoes and flies in the reed pond, but several men did not complain, and they didn't even have the action to drive away, as if they were used to it.

Only the unruly look and cold expression in their eyes proved that these people seemed to be not good.

"Big brother, it's already evening, can that kid still come?" asked a long-haired horse-faced man in the back.

"I will definitely be able to come, and I will do things after receiving the money. Besides, even if he doesn't come, do you dare to break in? This is the hinterland of the Ward Clan, and with just a few of us, it will be sent to death. The man replied.

In terms of appearance, this leader is the shortest of the six, only 1.75 meters, and his figure is also a little thin, but he has become the leader for some reason.

Another man with a knife asked, a hideous scar on the right side of his face, from the corner of his eyebrow to his mouth, almost cutting his eye.

"Geman, the head of the regiment has a big deal to do at the border, but a few of us were sent to kidnap a child, and we lost a lot. ”

"Cologne, I know your face was cut off by the Ward guy in the border army, and you want revenge. But this task was personally given by the regimental commander. As he spoke, the leader sighed. "I don't know if it's true or not, but I heard that the regiment leader's biological brother was killed by the father of this little cub, and his head is still hanging on the wall of the border village to dry. ”

"Shhh

"So, if you're leaving, you can do it now, go to the border and talk to the regiment commander in person. German said to Scarface with a smirk that this latecomer Coren hadn't been very obedient lately.

When Coren heard this, he just spat on the ground and turned away, no longer speaking.

The few people in the back also pressed their own thoughts, and lowered their heads and didn't know what they were thinking.

Only the tallest man with a hammer always had an indifferent expression on his face, and he didn't seem interested in the content of Geman's words or the secret confrontation between the two.

The reed pond around the lake is huge, but Phil doesn't plan to go too far into it, because it stinks.

The mud that had rotted and accumulated for an unknown number of years, fermented in the hot and humid air, exuded a fishy smell all the time, which made him a little sick to his stomach, and the ambition he had come to seemed to be dissipated by this smell.

Coupled with the countless mosquitoes in the air, they rushed to his face without fear of death, so that Phil did not dare to open his mouth at all, for fear of swallowing a slice and being forced to supplement protein.

The reed in front looks greener and has wider leaves, so you can go back if you pick it early.
