I looked at his face in amazement, and he looked at me in amazement. It made me feel a sudden sense of déjà vu.

"Why are you here!" I almost screamed.

"I guess I'm asking why you're here." He said in a low voice.

"Can you put the knife down first?" I slowly withdrew my hand.

He plunged the dagger into the scabbard.

I retreated from the stairs on the second floor. He took my arm and we ducked away in a corner of the hall.

"Can you tell me why you're here?"

The faint light in the hall made Ralph's not-so-young face feel even older. He squinted his eyes and said, "I never dreamed of seeing you here, what are you doing here?" ”

"Of course, it's a mission!"

"Aren't you in Lordaeron?"

"I can't mess around there now. I'm ...... now It's back again. I said.

"The lone wolf sent you here?"

I nodded.

"What did he send you here for?"

"He asked me to come to a guy named Easten, who was O'Liven's cousin, and they were relatives. Isn't this Isden's home? Why are you here? ”

Ralph had more confusion on his face than I did, and he said, "Did you find out anything later in Lordaeron?"

"Ever since the death of the little lovers, Lordaeron has been surprisingly calm, and there is no more clue. Including the group of catfish, which disappeared as if they had never appeared. ”

Ralph's face still stinks, but it doesn't seem to be that annoying. "And what are you looking for Easten?"

"Lone Wolf told me to find him, and he asked me to help him destroy a mine."

Hearing this, Ralph hesitated. "What do you know?" I could see that he was thinking.

"Nothing, I just know that there is a mine outside the city, which is a huge gold mine and there are all kinds of precious gems in it, and that's it."

"Do you know who owns this gold mine?"

"I don't know."

"Hmm...... Can you tell me why you're here? ”

"I'm ...... The guards here. Ralph said.

"I thought you were bandits again, and I ran into a gang of bandits when I returned to Alterac. Actually, to be honest, I wished I wanted to see you at the time. ”

"And then?"

"I burned their stockades."

"It's a good fit for your style." He glanced at me. "How long have you been here?"

"Just arrived today."

"The way you visit is also very much in line with your style." He snorted.

"Brother, in fact, it was not my intention to come back to this place, I want to go back to the Storm Kingdom, I will leave after doing this, he promised me."

Ralph's eyes said it all. "Then I wish you success!"

"I have more things to do, brother." The corners of my mouth curled.

"You ......"

He was about to open his mouth, but I patted him on the shoulder and smiled and interrupted him, "Don't worry, I won't do anything out of the ordinary, and I won't embarrass you." ”

So saying, I turned to go upstairs, when suddenly I stopped, turned to him, and said, "Do you know where his study is?" ”

Ralph didn't stop me, and the fact that I was able to meet him here made me feel better. Easten's study. Not with his bedroom.

So I boldly lit the candle and slowly searched the house for clues. I knew Ralph was outside the door right now, and I wanted to laugh at the thought of it.

I've lost count of how many people's rooms I've sneaked into, but it's a thrilling feeling, and the excitement of being able to sneak into someone's room is a mixture of fear and happiness for someone else to find out. And the process of discovering someone else's secret and the euphoria after discovering the secret fascinated me.

But I remember what that obnoxious Abel said, we are not thieves.

This fellow, Isden, had the good habit of keeping a diary that many nobles had, and I don't know why, he seemed to like to keep correspondence.

In his small, locked iron box, there was a large number of letters with Miss Eve. In addition to the inappropriate teasing and literary love of children, these letters also contain a large number of records and descriptions of Fred's behavior.

In Miss Eve's letters, she tells of Prince Fred as a fool, a mentally retarded man, a wayward child, and a very warlike man who could not satisfy her for a short time.

Reading these letters, I feel a little sorry for Prince Fred. I wonder if he will have a chance to know these things after he is dead?

Sure enough, in some of the letters that followed, Miss Eve kept telling Isden about Fred's contact with the nobles of Lordaeron.

This woman is really the guy who planted next to Prince Fred and can be called a female spy. And after reading this woman's letter, I thought to myself, Fred is fortunate to be dead, if this man is really going to be king, it is estimated that Alterac will lose a large part of his territory, this guy is simply losing power and humiliating the country, he seems to be desperate to become king.

In Fred's diary, I remember that there seemed to be Isden's name as well, but it seemed to be just a name. When I was in Talenmere, I remember Fred saying that the lord of Southsea didn't seem to be him, but a guy called something.

O'Liden wanted me to destroy the mine, and he was colluding with such a guy. Then the owner of this pit must have provoked His Royal Highness the Prince, and this contradiction is estimated to be irreconcilable.

While I was thinking about it, I suddenly found a letter that sent chills down my back. The letter clearly states that there are two strange guys following Fred, and he will let those two guys die as soon as possible! The letter was not signed.

There is also a letter, which is clearly written. They wanted to make the guy who was caught spit, but the guy didn't say anything...... Moreover, the letter suggested that the mastermind behind the installation of such two guys by Fred's side was likely to be Oriden. They will move forward as they get the chance......

I don't suspect that this Isden is supposed to be Fred's murderer. And it is very likely that he is also the culprit of Miss Eve's murder.

There is a wrong, and there is a debtor. It wasn't until today that I found out that the mastermind behind the assassination of me and Ralph, and the assassination of Fred and his lover, was actually his own cousin, who had collaborated with the prince. This thing...... I'm not going to report it to Oriden for the time being, but I folded the letters and put them in my bosom.

Poor Ralph, the stupid middle-aged man outside the door, he still doesn't know that the person who wanted to take his life at that time is being protected by him.

The letter does not explicitly indicate that O'Liden is to blame. But I get the feeling that this guy is really a guy who puts a long line to catch big fish.

Instead of taking a diary, I folded up the letter and hid it in my pocket. I had an immature idea in my mind......

As I walked out of the room, Ralph looked angry, "Are you giving birth in there?" Why is it so slow! ”

"Can you be gentle with me?" I glanced at him and headed downstairs.

"What did you find?" He chased after him.

"There's something exciting to talk about, I can't tell you right now, if you have time, go to the Green Turtle Hotel at noon, I'll be there." Before I could figure out how to tell him what I had found, I opened my mouth and closed it again.

Ralph behind me was clearly not satisfied with my answer, and he grabbed my clothes. "What did you find?"

"Maybe you won't be here for long!" I turned to him. "I've found Fred's killer!"

Ralph's facial expression was one of shock, and I understood his mixed feelings at this time.

Back at the hotel, I lay on my bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. I'm going to take care of this, I have a hunch that I can not only achieve the purpose of the return trip, but at the same time, I will return with a full load.

In the morning, I packed up and officially headed to the big villa in Isden.

I didn't see him last night, and when I saw this guy, he was very different from what I expected. Not only is he far more handsome than Oriden, but his words and deeds are simply not too elegant. It seems that his temperament is more like a royal family.

His eyes are beautiful, and his eyebrows should be trimmed, I have never seen such heroic eyebrows. His skin was wheat-colored, and I don't know if he was sun-soaked or if he was born that way. Dressed in a smooth royal blue silk robe, he felt that he was very tall.

This is the man who can't get enough love with Miss Eve in the letters, and if I were a woman, I guess I would be willing to mess with such a handsome guy.

"You're Bill." He looked at me with a smile.

I answered and bowed in respect.

"I heard you were in Lordaeron." He said this suddenly, and I chuckled in my heart.

"Previously served in the First Regiment in Lordaeron."

"It's Terenus's personal guard! Ha! How did you end up here? ”

"If the salary is enough, I won't leave."

"Pragmatic guy." There was a charm in his eyes.

"His Royal Highness the Prince has sent me to assist Your Excellency."

"Of course, you have to go today, I hope you don't let me down."

"Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

"Nope." He said. "Let go of your hands and feet."

"Is it going to destroy the mine or just stop production there?" I confirm again.

He muttered, "Then let them stop production first, after all, there are still a large number of workers there to live." ”

I didn't really understand what he meant. "The owner of this mine is a guy who doesn't have long eyes?"

"Hah! That's right, they don't have long eyes, and they're very bold. But that's not what you need to know, do your job well. He waved his hand.

"I need to advance half of the reward promised to me by Oriden, Lord Isden." I say.

He walked away without looking back, and Ralph was standing in the courtyard watching my every move.

No way! This money...... I've got to get it first!
