Chapter 70: The outlook is promising
"Who murdered Ruth?" Li Yu asked on behalf of Elia, so that the girl on the side calmed down a little.
"According to Carroman, it was my brother who instructed him to do this."
"Why?"
"I don't know, the tool just needs to do things, there is no need to ask why, Carroman has a handle in my brother's hands, and that poor man does not dare to disobey my brother's orders at all."
After saying this, a look of confusion appeared on Huls's face, and he muttered, "Strange, why hasn't David's people come yet?" ”
"I told you, don't worry about the dark whistle in the tavern."
In fact, not long after Huls sat across from the two of them, the bearded mercenary in the corner moved first, threw down a silver coin on the table as a drink, and then staggered to his feet and was about to walk out of the tavern.
But the next moment a palm pressed against his shoulder, and with the sharp force of that palm, the bearded mercenary staggered and sat back on the stool.
Then he saw a warrior of the House of Arias sitting across from him.
The bearded mercenary feigned anger and cursed as he tried to get up again, but then he saw the warrior of House Arias glance at him and motioned for him to look down.
The bearded mercenary's gaze moved down with his gaze, and he saw a crossbow under the wooden table, pointing at the part he was most proud of.
So the swear words that had already come to his mouth were swallowed back by him.
"This is Rock Snow City," the bearded mercenary reminded, "Do you know the consequences of chaos?" ”
"Sit there and drink your wine, and no one will get hurt today." The warrior of House Arias replied.
The bearded mercenary's expression was cloudy, he knew that his identity had been revealed, but he couldn't understand how he had revealed it.
In the end, between fulfilling his duties and continuing to be a man, the bearded mercenary still chose the latter, and obediently drank the ale in front of him.
The lame manservant on the other side was still slowly cleaning up the empty wine glasses on the table and the vomit left by the previous guest as if he hadn't noticed what was happening here.
He cleaned up the table in front of him before returning to the back kitchen, put down the rag in his hand, wiped his hands, and walked towards the back door of the tavern, and before he pushed it open, a dagger was already on his neck.
As for the gnome groom outside the door, he was the first of the three to be taken, and when the cloaked monster first appeared, he was only on the lookout for suspicious targets, and was knocked unconscious by a stick sticking out of nowhere.
Hulse thought Li Yu was bragging, but as time went by, his expression became strange, "How did you do it?" My brother's men haven't shown up until now. ”
"It's none of your business." Li Yu has no obligation to monitor the cameras and wireless listening devices to Hurskop. After a pause, he continued, "I have one last question, and the most important question, is how do you prove that the story you are telling is true. ”
"Carroman can testify for me." Huls also put away his previous high-minded appearance.
A meeting that he thought was all under his control, was out of his control from the beginning, and Hulse didn't like it, but he had to admit that he might have underestimated the Arias family and the Shuangxiu Sect.
They weren't alone in the city, and it wasn't a fool's errand to choose to meet him at this tavern.
"Where's Caroman?" Li Yu asked again.
"One...... Safe place," Hulse bought a pass this time and did not answer positively.
Li Yu understood what he meant, and said bluntly, "What do you want?" ”
"It's a pleasure to talk to smart people, and I've heard that you have a special knack for recording a person's voice."
"Do you want me to delete that recording?"
"No, I want to hear about it." "Too many people already know about the existence of that voice, and it would be even more disadvantageous for me to make it disappear now, and I have to find a way to find a loophole...... Prove that the Gentile named Gabriel was lying. ”
"Yes."
"I want the Arias family to be on my side."
Miss Rabbit had almost eased up by this time, and finally spoke again, "If it can be proved that David is indeed the murderer of my father, of course I will not let him go." ”
"I can understand your vengeance, but to be honest I don't think you'll get the results you want." Hulse shook his head.
"Why?"
"Why do you think my brother would risk being suspected by you to kill Gabriel because as long as Gabriel is dead, you will not find any absolute evidence that he colluded with that stranger to drive the black dragon to attack the major families in the West.
With David's prudence, he will not leave any flaws in this matter. I stared at him so closely that I couldn't be sure if it had anything to do with him until the black dragon appeared. ”
"We still have Carroman." The girl said.
"Ha, Carroman, you can try. But my brother and he also have a back hand in this matter. "Hulse is clearly not very optimistic about the prospect of revenge for the female lord.
"How long have you been doing this?"
"What's the situation?"
"Don't deny it, you're obviously afraid of your brother, you don't think you can defeat him, so why are you coming to see us today, what are we talking about?"
"How can I wash away the grievances on my body, by the way, this was originally brought by you, don't you think you also have the responsibility to clean up the source?" Hulse said quickly, "And I didn't say David couldn't beat, I just said you couldn't get what you wanted." ”
"What do I want?"
"An immediate, hearty revenge. As long as anyone who is not blind can see it from your face. Courage is commendable, but the problem is that this is impossible, it is impossible for someone like David to be knocked down at once.
"Your revenge is destined to be dangerous and long." "That's why I'm asking you to come to my side, support me, surrender to me, and join me against my brother." ”
"I have no intention of getting involved in a fight between you and your brother."
"I know, but unfortunately you're involved, unless you give up avenging your father."
Hulse said, "Don't look at me as embarrassed now, but in fact, my situation is not so bad, as long as I am cleared of my grievances, coupled with the black dragon's trouble, even if there is no evidence to prove that David and Gabriel are related, it will plant a seed of doubt in the hearts of the nobles of the West."
"If I try harder, they may start to waver and come back to me."
