Chapter 53: Ilea's Accusations
That way we don't have to worry about him flying away again." Iron-faced Brian withdrew his blood-stained saber and said nothing.
Looking at the severed wings on the ground and the blood gushing out from Gabriel's wounds, Yin Leia was completely stunned.
She had also heard rumors before that the sheriff of Rock Snow City was a ruthless person who treated prisoners ruthlessly, which was why he was called the Iron Mask, but the harshness of the other party's methods was still a bit beyond her imagination.
He said that he would do it, without any warning, and he was executed in the street in public, and he cut off Gabriel's wings with a single sword.
Not only Yin Leiya, but even the other nobles on the side were stunned by this bloody scene.
David frowned, and said helplessly, "Brian, you ......."
"Oh, I'm sorry." The sheriff apologized, then took out his handkerchief and bent down, and rubbed it twice on the girl's boots, "I shouldn't have let that filthy blood spill on your boots."
「…………」
Miss Rabbit didn't know what to say, and after a pause, she said, "Sir Brian, you have to keep your mouth alive, he has very important information on him."
"I've dealt with a lot of prisoners, and I know what to expect." The sheriff didn't care.
"Miss Yin Leiya caught her, and I think we should respect her opinion." Romero also interjected at this time.
"Okay, okay, I promise I won't torture him anymore." Iron-Faced Brian instructed his jailers, "Did you hear me, get me a reliable doctor quickly, stop the bastard's bleeding and bandage it, and tell the others not to rush to play games with him when I get back, this person will be of great use in the future."
Perhaps he is familiar enough with the way the sheriff acts.
After a brief period of consternation, the crowd quickly regained its composure, remembering the good deeds that the dragon had done in the West some time ago, and some people even applauded.
And Miss Rabbit also followed David and other nobles to the Marquis's Palace.
The girl who revisited the old place couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion in her heart, just a few months ago, when she came here as a guest, she was still apprehensive, not knowing if she could successfully sit in the position of the head of the family.
As for leaving, it was even more embarrassing, almost fleeing in ashes.
But now that she's back, she's been a guest of honor, and everyone smiles at her along the way, even big names like Romero and Brian are very polite to her.
But the girl has not forgotten the purpose of her visit.
When everyone was seated one after another, and David waved his hand to let the chef serve the food, Yin Leia stood up again and said in a deep voice, "Lord David, and all the adults here, I thank you for your warm hospitality."
"You deserve it!" Someone replied, raising the wine glass in his hand, "May Miss Yin Leia stay young forever!"
Then more and more people raised their glasses and echoed, "May Miss Yin Leia stay young forever!" The atmosphere was heated again.
However, seeing that the person concerned did not raise a glass, those laughter and laughter gradually faded until they disappeared, and everyone's eyes revealed a look of doubt.
Unless there is a deep hatred in the West, it is very rude for nobles and nobles not to accept each other's toasts.
The girl bowed in apology before she spoke aloud, "I didn't mean to neglect you, but there is one thing that cannot be solved for a day, and I will not be able to drink with you for a day."
"There's something but it doesn't hurt to say." David who was sitting on the main seat said, "Miss Yin Leia, you get rid of that evil dragon, everyone here, including me, owes you a favor, as long as we can do it, we will definitely not shirk it."
The female lord nodded, "Then I'll be blunt, my father Ruth's death has another secret, he was murdered."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the banquet hall, and all the nobles changed color.
After a moment, Romero was the first to speak, "Miss Yin Leia, we are all deeply sorry for Ling Zun's passing, but...... Many people were present when that unfortunate accident occurred, and they all testified that it was Ling Zunxian's request for advice, and that Sir Carroman had dissuaded your father.
"And Sir Carroman, as we all know, is a close friend of your father, and he has no reason to do anything to your father."
"Karoman betrayed my father and brutally murdered him, but someone else directed him."
"Who?" David asked.
"Your brother Huls."
The uproar in the hall was even louder.
David's expression also became serious when he heard this, and he put away all the smiles on his face, "If I heard me correctly, Miss Yin Leia, you are accusing my brother."
"That's right."
"The reputation of the Figuerola family and my brother is at stake, and I must warn you, Miss Yin Leia, that the accusations you are making now are very serious, do you have any evidence?"
"Of course, Gabriel, uh, the one with the wings on his back, he confessed that he was an accomplice of Hulse, and together they planned everything, and they chose the Gegu Swamp to hatch the black dragon, hoping that my father could help them cover it up, but my father refused them.
"And threatened to tell the Marquis what they had done, and Huls was so angry that he let Ser Carroman murder my father."
"It doesn't make sense at all." Romero shook his head and said, "Huls himself died in the flames of that black dragon, how could he be an accomplice of that Gabriel."
His words have also been echoed by many people.
But soon Yin Leiya's next sentence made everyone's faces even more shocked.
"Huls didn't die, he just died as a stand-in, to dispel everyone's suspicions about him." The girl paused, "Huls has always coveted a position that shouldn't belong to him, but he doesn't have as many supporters as his brother, Lord David, so he came up with this idea.
"Use that black dragon to get rid of the lords who support you, clear the way for yourself, and if I don't kill that black dragon and let his plan continue, then the next person he will kill will be you. Master David.
"Think about it, guys," the girl turned to look at the others in the hall, "Gabriel is just a powerless foreigner, and even if he can manipulate that black dragon, how can he know exactly where each target is, and even pick and choose when their defenses are weakest.
"He must have other accomplices, and the identity of that man must not be simple, because only in this way can he provide Gabriel with information so that Gabriel can accurately grasp the timing of his attack."
