Chapter Seventy-Eight: Your old man can do it yourself
As soon as the person who fell from the building fell, two young priests in their twenties and thirties immediately rushed over to perform lighting magic to rescue them. But alas, this also ended up to no avail.
Aaron's reaction was very quick.
When he realized that the deceased might have been assassinated, he kept the others away from trying to rescue the priest and the body of the fallen man, and immediately sent someone to cordon off the stairs up and down the stairs. At the same time, the waiters who were parked on the second floor due to the blockade of the stairs were asked to immediately close all the windows on the second floor to prevent anyone from escaping.
"Please be quiet and stay where you are. The Inspectorate will arrive within ten minutes. ”
Aaron's low, clear voice resounded throughout the building. As a characteristic of the authoritarian path, his voice can be loud.
Although his voice does not contain the power of an authoritarian path to control the minds of others. But his calmness and composure also suppressed the tension and chaos that was slightly aroused.
After that, Aaron picked up the phone on the counter. Start dialing.
However, he did not call the Inspectorate directly, but to his father. Aaron briefly recounted the case at the White Shoes Club and asked him to report it on his behalf. And in particular, he pointed out the fact that "Her Royal Highness Isabel is also here today".
Before the others could reach the second floor, they stopped on the first floor before the stairs were blocked.
He stayed quietly by Aaron's side.
But to Ivace's surprise, he didn't have anything to remind him of.
Because he skipped the plot completely, Ivas didn't know that this half-elf senior with a long face was so good. When faced with an unexpected situation, although Aaron was stunned for a while, he quickly reacted.
Considering that Aaron is a half-elf, he is even just 21 years old now. He's really talented in that area as well.
has this talent, but is so weak...... It can only be said that his mind is indeed not on the supernatural power.
However, Aaron actually has the confidence to be willful.
After all, he is not the eldest son, but the third son. Besides, as a half-elf, his lifespan can easily reach one hundred and forty or fifty years old. Of the more than 100 years of natural lifespan of Aronna, only one in seven or eight has passed. He still had plenty of time to grow and regret it—if he hadn't died.
The phone call made by the Secretary of State himself was clearly weighty.
Aaron said it was ten minutes...... But in fact, only a little more than five minutes later, a large group of people pushed open the door and rushed in, causing a burst of low exclamations.
They wore helmet-like black hats and split black leather armor, and wore a pistol and a short sword around their waists. The number of people entering the door in the first wave alone was more than twenty, and the hall on the first floor became crowded in an instant.
They walked through the crowd, forming a human wall and surrounding the site. Walked in after that were two Inspectors in white gloves and black suits.
Immediately after, there was a heavy sound of heavy boots hitting the ground outside the door.
An old knight, almost fully armed, dressed in silver-white plate armor and wearing only a helmet, walked in through the wide open door.
He has short, disheveled hair that has grayish gray due to aging, and sharp dark blue pupils. His bronzed dark skin had visible scars, but there was a silvery white glow in those scars.
What was a little surprising was that behind the old knight was a pure white two-handed sword that emitted a hazy shimmer.
It didn't look like a modern weapon at all, and it didn't look like a mass killer that could be used in the city.
After the old knight entered the door, his eagle-sharp gaze glanced around and found Isabel.
"Greetings, Your Highness Isabel."
As soon as the old knight entered, he knelt down and said in an old and calm voice: "The silver-crowned dragon is above." I will protect your safety. ”
In the inspection and supervision team, there are also scattered people who kneel and salute. Etiquette itself is mystical and powerful. This half-kneeling ritual is a knightly ritual that represents submission to the authority of the royal family and seeking power, power, and refuge from a higher being.
Only the knight family can bow to the royal family, and the others can only bow at most. From the power of the authoritarian path, the salute can vaguely feel the mood, will, and health of the person being saluted, as well as confirm whether the other party is the true royal direct bloodline.
Isabel didn't know him at all, so she could only nod politely to the old knight and whispered, "Thank you...... Everyone, please get up. ”
So the old knight got up and walked over to Isabel. The inspectors then began to investigate the deceased and began collecting documents scattered on the ground.
And everyone in the club has their eyes on Isabel at the moment.
Although Isabel had been standing at the door for a long time, quite a few people had noticed her. But she wasn't the first to come after all, and there were people inside who were concentrating on talking to people before, and didn't notice Isabel at the door.
Isabel is a quarter of elven blood, and although she looks young, she is also more than 1.6 meters tall. Even if passers-by see the back of a blonde girl, unless they can see the face, most people will not immediately think that she is the only remaining princess of the kingdom.
After all, Isabel also wears a school uniform in school, and there are too many blonde girls at Wang Li's Law University.
Isabel was wearing a blue-and-white uniform similar to the one Hayna wore when she first came to Moriarty Manor—not the uniform of the Inspectorate, but the uniform of the University of Law.
The girls' uniforms are white long-sleeved shirts with dark blue vest skirts, while the boys' uniforms are dark blue suits, with only the color of the tie slightly different from one department to another, and the common denominator is that the logo of the University of Law is on the left chest.
Princess Isabel had never been to the White Shoes Club before.
It was on her first day of arrival that the club died.
You know, since the White Shoes Club was founded more than 40 years ago, there has never been a single death in it!
Even though there were occasional incidents of mutual assault, they were not even disabled. Not to mention such a blatant assassination!
The two priests couldn't save them by using illumination in the first place, and this is definitely a murder involving profound and extraordinary power!
Could it be that this was a failed assassination attempt against Her Royal Highness? Or was it her entry into the White Shoes Club that caused someone to misunderstand? Or ...... Is this just a coincidence?
Since most people were not very familiar with the deceased, the crowd whispered a discussion.
"I'm the head of the Inspectorate of the Red Queen Division."
The old knight grimaced and said solemnly: "Your Highness can call me Gordon." Inspector General Edward was also on his way. The 1st Air Cavalry Brigade has surrounded the club building, and no one will be able to escape. ”
- Only one person died, and the Inspector General and the Inspector General immediately came in person.
This is a normal alarm process, and it is definitely not possible to do the efficiency. Entirely because Princess Isabel happened to be on the scene.
That is, Aaron reacts quickly.
When he saw the dark golden handleless blade, he immediately realized that this was not something he could handle, so he directly asked the Minister of Law to personally inform the Inspector General of the Red Queen Division.
If it's a dagger, that's it. This thin blade, without a hilt, is undoubtedly a xenomorph weapon.
It is not known exactly how it is used, but the user must have undergone special training.
In other words, professional killers.
And their White Shoes Club is not allowed to enter without the "Crystal Shoes" badge.
That is, in the context of Avalon's last remaining princess, a political association with strict entry restrictions was infiltrated by professional killers.
If Allen doesn't handle this matter well, I'm afraid the whole club will be implicated. All people may be subject to interrogation and secret investigations by the Inspectorate...... Even his father would be implicated in this.
Officially, because of this situation, Aaron called his father directly.
- That's the situation anyway, you old man can do it yourself.
The effect is also significant.
Although it is not known if the assassin is still inside, or has escaped without a sound. I don't know if I can use it, but in short, the reinforcements are enough—a steady stream of people are starting to rush to the White Shoes Club.
Ivas even felt that maybe even the head of Kent in the White Queen had received a call and began to send people to rush here. Perhaps Sherlock had been notified...... After all, he is the designated thigh of the Kent director, the outward thinking circuit.
"Director!"
At this moment, an inspector looked nervous and ran over: "The identity of the deceased has been clarified!"
"—he's Lord Ralph, Lord Drost's chief private secretary!"
Hearing this, Lily's eyes, which were standing quietly behind Ivus, suddenly widened.
