When Rogge and Catherine returned to find Alice's woodland, they were surprised to see a man lying in the middle of the woodland, and Rogge and Catherine rushed to find that it was Alice, who had fled earlier, with a deep sharp wound on her left chest, and the person had stopped breathing.

"Why did she die here? Didn't she run away just now?" asked Catherine in surprise.

Rog glanced at Alice's face and said, "Her eyes were not closed when she was dying, and the look on her face was panicked, indicating that she was forced to come back here." ”

He looked back in the direction Alice's feet were facing, and two pairs of footprints stretched from near Alice's body into the jungle to the north, with small footprints in reverse confirming Rogge's suspicion that Alice was being forced back.

"Could it be that there are other accomplices of the black-robed man nearby?" said Catherine, looking around in amazement.

Rogge didn't answer immediately, silently crouched down beside Alice, looked down and examined her body, and found obvious bruises on her neck, and it was conceivable that a strong hand had stuck her neck.

"Her legs didn't turn into fish tails, and the killer knew the merfolk very well, as long as they stuck their necks and made it difficult to breathe, they couldn't transform and resist, and became as weak as ordinary human girls. ”

Rogge said, fixing his gaze on Alice's hand on the ground, he carefully pinched Alice's wrist, picked her hands up from the ground, and saw that his left hand was stained with blood, and his right hand had obvious green protrusions.

Suddenly, he noticed that there was a strand of white velvet on the edge of the nail of Alice's right hand, and Rogge brought her right hand to his eyes, carefully ripped off the strand of velvet, put it in the palm of his hand and observed it for a moment, and said: "This should be pulled off the murderer by Alice when she was entangled with the murderer, it looks like the fluff on the wool cloak." ”

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly interrupted Rogge's thoughts: "Someone, let go of that corpse and retreat to the side!"

Rog looked up when he heard the sound, only to see a knight in silver armor and white robe leaping out from behind the thorn bush, pointing the spear in his hand at the two and shouting, at the same time, more than a dozen knights of the Knights of the Silver Dragon Wings rushed up and surrounded them.

"Always show up when I least want to see them!" Rogge muttered to himself through gritted teeth, and Lilith muttered softly, "It's like when you want to see them!"

"Rogge, we've finally found you!" Douglas, the deputy head of the Knights, stepped forward, glanced at the scene, raised his head and pointed at Rogge with the spear in his hand and said, "Why did you kill this woman, could she be the mermaid guardian that Miss Tully said?"

"Who told you that I killed her?" Rogge stared coldly at the other party's face and sneered noncommittally, "Could it be that the dead man got up and told you by himself?"

"You're right, it's true that the dead man told me, if you didn't kill her, then how would you explain this?"

Douglas pointed with the spear in his hand, and Rogge looked in the direction he was pointing, and found that on the blade of the silver sword in his hand, a bright red blood stain was shocking in the silver light.

Rogge calmly glanced at the blood stains on the blade, raised his head and glanced at the white cloak on Douglas's body, his heart moved, and he sneered: "If this can also be regarded as evidence, I don't think you may not be suspected of murder!"

You have been suspected of murdering the Grand Master, and now you are killing people again, and everyone has been stolen, what do you have to say when you return to the prison!" The deputy head pointed his spear, and the surrounding knights swarmed up, and the spear in his hand was like a poisonous snake spitting out letters, and pounced on Rogge.

"Hmph, if you want to add to the crime, why bother?" Rogge sneered, turned around to avoid the spear that stabbed him, grabbed the spear head of a spear with his hand, pulled the spear with all his might, flew up and kicked the knight to the ground, and the silver sword in his right hand drew a silver arc of light, forcing the knights around him to retreat.

With a spear in one hand and a sword in the other, he swept the spear in his left hand and knocked the three knights to the ground, and the sword in his right hand picked up the spear heads of several spears that had pierced him, and the spear in his left hand flew out and struck them horizontally on the waist and abdomen of several knights, knocking them all to the ground.

Suddenly, Catherine's cry for help came from behind, and Rogge looked back sharply, and three knights rushed to Catherine with spears in hand, and the girl shot at them, but was swept away by the small shield on the knight's gauntlet, and when he shot again, there were no bullets in the chamber.

The two knights stepped forward and grabbed Catherine's arm and tried to push the girl to the ground, but Catherine struggled desperately and refused to give in, and the other knight raised his spear and struck Catherine in the shoulder.

Rog grabbed the neck guard behind the knight's head from behind, dragged the knight to the ground on his back, stepped on his breastplate, and leaped up to kick the other knight away.

The third knight turned and swung his spear and stabbed at Rog, who swung the edge of the spear and slashed down with his right sword, the sharp blade easily cut through the knight's neck armor, and the knight screamed and fell in a pool of blood.

"Are you alright?" Rogge stepped forward and pulled Catherine up, and the girl's face turned pale with shock, and her whole body trembled so violently that she couldn't even answer Rogge's inquiry.

Suddenly, Lilith standing on Rog's head shouted a warning shout, and Rog turned back, leaning down to avoid a knight's spear sweep, the silver sword in his hand pierced him through his chest, and at the same time grabbed the spearhead of another knight, kicking him to the ground, and the splitter threw the spear that he snatched, nailing him to the trunk of the tree behind his back.

"May you have a good time in heaven!" Rog drew his right sword and kicked the knight to the ground, looking up to see Douglas with the rest of the Silverwing Knights rushing forward.

Rog kicked a spear from the ground, kicked it at the oncoming knights, fended off their attack, and then turned around and pulled Catherine in the direction of the three men in black who had fled.

The knights were about to continue their pursuit, when they heard a loud shout from behind: "What happened?"

The group stopped, and when they looked back, they saw the head of the Knights, Antonio, along with Tully and Murphy, with the rest of the Knights.

"What's going on, Douglas, what's going on here?" Antonio asked aloud, glancing at the chaos around him, as well as the few corpses on the ground.

"Captain, we just arrived here and happened to see Rog kill the mermaid guardian Alice, we surrounded Rogge and his accomplices, but they resisted, and the family killed our three brothers and ran west with their accomplices. ”

Hearing Douglas's report, those present could not help but be surprised, and Tali hurriedly stepped forward to inspect Alice's body, and after confirming her identity, she turned around and looked up at Antonio and Murphy with a strong look of surprise on her face.

"How is this possible? Why did Rog kill her?" she muttered to herself in shock, unable to believe what was in front of her.

Murphy pondered for a moment and asked Glass, "Mr. Deputy Commander, how did you judge Rogge's murderous behavior, did you see him stab Alice to death?"

"No, I didn't see it with my own eyes, when I arrived here with the knights, he was standing next to the corpse with a long sword in his hand, there was still bright red blood on his blade, and the wound on the corpse was the wound of the blade, there was no suspicious person around except him, who could it be?"

From Douglas's answer, Murphy didn't find anything suspicious, he didn't say anything more, just looked at Antonio and Tali with a frown.

"There are only two possibilities. Antonio walked over to Alice's corpse and squatted down, glanced at the gloomy face of Tully beside him, looked down at Alice's corpse, and said, "Either Alice refused to tell the truth and had a fight with Rogge, and Rogge killed her by mistake, or ......"

He paused, looked up at Tali's raised eyes, and said, "She confided the truth to Rogge, but the relationship between that mastermind and Rogge is extraordinary, and Rogge chose to kill people in order to cover up his crimes......"
