Chapter 97: Stratagem

After listening to the first half of the sentence, Serra thought that he was going to go back to find someone, and when she heard that he was looking for someone to save the horse, she didn't know what emotion to express for a while.

She had a wound on her thigh at the back, so she couldn't sit and had to stand against the trunk of a tree, waiting for Eric to move the rescuers.

Nelson's body was lying not far away, such a living person dying in front of him, Sierra had no emotion, but in retrospect, the torture and killing of Rose Hill at the gambling horse farm was really terrifying.

Eric was quick to call for people, his sensitive nose could easily discern the breath of a living person, and Annahi would have been guided back by his horse.

She got there before everyone else.

Seeing the fallen Spotted Horse and Nelson with his neck twisted to death, the chaotic scene caused Annahi to scream, "What happened!?" ”

On the way back, she had a bad hope that Nelson would succeed, he had taken possession of Serra, but now not only was her expectations shattered, but she also caused a human death, and her whole body was weak.

"My horse got out of control, and Nelson kicked me off the neck to protect me," said Serra, holding on to the trunk. ”

"What?" The shock on Annahi's face wasn't fake, "What about Eric?" ”

"He found out that something was wrong with us and rushed back to help, and he would have already called someone." Serra replied calmly.

Annahi looked at the dead Nelson and hesitated for a long time before nodding, "I'm here with you, how is your body?" Are you okay? ”

Serra glanced down at the blood between her legs, "It's fine." ”

"Is Nelson right for you?" Annahi stopped talking, hope burning again in her heart.

The moment she asked this, Sera became suspicious, a normal person would not ask about such a thing when he came up to ask about a wound.

"Do you know what he's going to do to me?" She raised her chin and raised her eyes, staring straight at each other.

"He's been very interesting to you." Annahi immediately covered up, "Don't worry, I won't say it." ”

Did she think Nelson had succeeded?

"What are you so sure he did to me? Is it collusion from the moment your horse is frightened? ”

As a novelist, Sierra has nothing to do with conspiracy theories, and her suspicious and distrustful attitude makes Annahi almost confused.

"At this time, you are still talking nonsense, I will never be sorry for you no matter what, but the blood between your legs scares me."

Serra: "Why don't you think I fell off my horse and got hurt?" ”

Annahi rolled her eyes slightly, grabbed the reins and turned her head, "Nelson is not a clean person, I have dealt with him since I was a child. ”

This reason is barely reasonable, but dealing with them since childhood just proves the problem.

Serra didn't ask any more, left and right This is the heroine of the otome world, with a system on her body, and it is not certain that the world will collapse without her.

The two waited for the rescuers, the rich companions who accompanied them, and a few servants who had rushed to help.

There were so many people that Eric couldn't walk over and pick her up like he had just done, but Serra needed someone with the strength to carry her back.

She stopped him as he was about to help carry the body, "Eric, I can't ride a horse, please carry me back on foot, these scrawny servants may not be able to carry me." ”

Eric smiled at her and quickly ran over, "Here we are." ”

There was no way to drive in the woods, the bumps of the horse were prone to cracks, and the bloody appearance of Serra's legs was scary, and no one thought there was anything wrong with her asking a strong boy to help her.

She curled up in the boy's embrace, the tight wound at the back of her thigh still causing her to reach out her paws and scratch the firm chest beside her.

"It hurts."

"I'm a fast runner." Eric whispered comfort to her.

Annahi sat on horseback and watched them go away, never receiving a word of worry or greeting from Eric.

She hung her head, and said nothing in the face of the servant's concern.

David never imagined that a good hunt would kill his son.

His wife cried at the hospital, and the police came to the door and said that they would take the witnesses from the scene back to investigate

There was a mess in the villa, and the dinner party that had been set up was also interrupted due to this sudden accident.

...

Serra, with the help of David's family doctor, bandaged her thighs and was sent to the police station with Eric and Annahi, on the way, Serra, who was huddled in the middle of the back seat, was silently held by the young wolf next to her.

The three were interrogated separately that night, and the interrogators also coincidentally.

Detective Apu, a close confidant of the king, who is refused to cooperate by Ross Hill.

A few questions in a row Apu was aggressive, and it didn't give Serra a bad face at all, and she asked Rosehill not to sell drugs that day, which was tantamount to offending him.

"Do you know how much responsibility you have to hold for the death of a soldier who has made a meritorious service to the country?"

Serra took a sip of the brewed tea, "I've already explained that my mouth is dry, isn't your investigation that he died by accidentally being hit hard in the neck?" I'm just an innocent person. ”

Apu laughed and said, "It's also possible that you poked the Orion and killed people." ”

"No way."

"Possibly, he's strong."

Serra's eyes narrowed, she had thought of all possible surprises, but she ran into this person.

"So what do you say to do, Officer Apu? It seems that no matter what the truth is, you will not let me go and force me to confess. ”

"Go and get the Duke to change his mind." Apu didn't talk nonsense, either, "You know how easy it is for me to tamper with a crime. ”

Serra twirled the teacup on the table and smiled, "That's where you got your idea." ”

"Miss Serra, you're smart and beautiful, and there's no good in working against me."

"Indeed, Mr. Rosehill and I really don't know what to do with King Horace for refusing to do business." Sierra laughed and said, "I'll think about it." ”

She became so talkative, and Apu didn't let down her guard, "I'll only give you three days." ”

Serra shook her head and gave him a suggestion, "Roshill didn't bring any bodyguards to Cumbunia, there is only one servant here, and he doesn't have a single relative or even a distant relative in his family, which means that the church will take most of the property when he dies." ”

She approached the table, her hands on her chin, her smile was full of meaning, and her sweet voice was tempting: "But you brought a lot of people here, Mr. Apu, why don't you go and kill him in advance yourself, fake a distant relative that Rose Hill doesn't need, secretly inherit all his property, and then you can do whatever you want." ”

It's a good idea, but it doesn't taste right out of her mouth.
