Section 80 Betrayal

"So I ordered to look carefully in Eagle Falcon City based on this characteristic. Byron took his stressful gaze off Nighthawk and said in a deep voice. "Unfortunately, nothing. However, I admit that these characteristics are not clear, and it is difficult to find people with these descriptions. I believe that everyone has worked hard to find it, and I thank you for your efforts. ”

"But you don't have to look for it anymore, because I already know about the man who killed my son...... Who was the man who looked like a bard with a little girl. Duke Byron raised his voice. "Those are two people that no one can find on the streets of Eagle Falcon. ”

"Lord Duke, do you mean they're out of town?" asked someone on the side.

"No, because I know it's not that simple. This was not a mere assassination. ”

"It's not a simple assassination...... So, manslaughter?"

"It's not as simple as manslaughter. Byron replied. "Because a few dedicated soldiers helped me find multiple witnesses. All of these witnesses were unanimous in what they said: it wasn't the mysterious man who struck out on the street and killed my son and his bodyguards. It must have been the other way around, it was my son who found the mysterious man. He ordered the bodyguards to do it, but he was not the opponent of the other party. He himself was caught off guard, and was impaled in the chest with a dagger by the little girl. Haha......"

His voice paused for a moment, and let out a chilling laugh like that of a night owl.

"Immediately after confirming the news, I asked myself a question. Why would my son suddenly find that mysterious man and attack?"

Nighthawk had been listening quietly with his head down, but when he heard Duke Byron ask this question, he couldn't help but raise his head to look at Byron. If someone were to look closely at his face, they would see that his face had turned pale at the moment.

"Although the dog is not good, it should not be inexplicable to order killing people on the street. There was a chilling force in his voice. "In particular, the dog has never practiced advanced swordsmanship, but the four bodyguards around him are all personally selected by me. The person who can defeat those four bodyguards with one enemy and four is definitely not an ordinary person. On the one hand, it is the pain of losing a child, and on the other hand, it is curiosity...... I carefully investigated the whole thing, and sure enough, that one was really not an ordinary person, it was the Wang family guard!"

Byron's gaze flickered, and he suddenly looked at Nighthawk. Nighthawk couldn't help but take a half step back. When their eyes happened to meet, Nighthawk saw the fierce look in each other's eyes that was mixed with hatred, and that hatred immediately became even more vicious. But it was only for a moment.

The crowd around let out a low exclamation.

It turned out that someone knew that these two mysterious people were the queen and her own bodyguard. So he tricked the dog to provoke the queen, and then murdered the dog with the help of the royal guard!" Byron's last sentence suddenly roared angrily. Almost half of the attendees were taken aback.

Nighthawk couldn't help but look over the door, but the door was closed. He turned his head back to face Upper Byron's hideous face, and suddenly the fear in his heart vanished. He didn't feel afraid, for he had encountered even more ferocious stares, both men and women. Those people would love to end his life and would not have the slightest remorse for it.

"The murderer thought that his crime could be covered up, that everything was perfect, because he had done the whole crime by someone else's hand, and he did not show up at all. No, he originally planned to show up, but in the end he didn't show up. As he said this, Byron's eyes were fixed on Nighthawk. Even the stupidest and most sluggish people present realized the meaning, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at Nighthawk.

"Nighthawk, you really have ...... on you Your mother's lowly blood!"

Nighthawk calmed down. Despite the gaze of so many pairs of eyes, he calmed down. Although he is still very young, the scenes he has experienced and the tests of life and death that he has experienced are no less than others. "Lord Duke, please don't mistake the villain for provocation. He said lightly.

"Villain provoking?huh...... ......Haha

"What you just said is a very good story, very exciting. On the surface, it is perfect and self-consistent, but in reality it does not stand up to scrutiny. Nighthawk replied. "After all, at the end of the day, it's just speculation without evidence. I'm sure the man who told you the story must have been clever, but I also believe that the Duke is a fair and just man, and will never let those unfounded rumors break the Wall. He said. "As you can see, why did I kill little Byron, and how did I convince him to attack a passer-by for some reason, even though in this story the 'passerby' is actually the queen and the bodyguard. I believe that little Byron must have known the Queen, and how could he have done such a reckless thing? ”

He replied calmly. It was a gamble of his life, and like all prudent people would do, he had taken care of all the possible sequelae, and the dead would not speak. And those who are not dead are all his trusted subordinates. No matter how long Duke Byron's hand is, it should not reach out to the middle of the underground gang.

"You're wrong, I have proof. Byron replied word for word. He turned his head and shouted out the window, in a tone that Nighthawk didn't understand.

In half a minute or so, the door to the conference room—not the one through which Nighthawk had entered, but a smaller, more secrecy on the other side—opened, and a man entered through the door, all the way to the middle of the room, standing before Duke Byron.

"That's my proof. Duke Byron's voice sounded colder than ice. "Human witnesses. ”

Nighthawk's eyes widened as if it were a red viper.

"Young Master. The witness smiled and said to Nighthawk. "Sorry, but ...... The Duke gave me conditions that I could not refuse. ”

"You're ...... betrayed me......" Nighthawk's voice was still too shocked.

"Boy. "Duke Byron's voice sounded a little ethereal, as if his voice was coming from afar. "You are not the only one in this world who knows how to buy. Okay, you can die in peace now. Rest assured, although you are the mastermind behind it, those who do it and the accomplices ...... And your street scum kind, I'll let them all accompany you!"

......

Ashrufat sank his head into the pillow, closed his eyes, and tried to sleep. He had already discovered that he didn't need sleep, but not being able to sleep didn't mean he couldn't sleep. Sleep is still a good way for him to rest, and it is also a good way to recuperate. Even better, as long as his mind is calm, sleep is a very simple thing, in other words, as long as he wants to sleep, he can fall asleep immediately, but the kind of light sleep that can wake up immediately at the slightest movement.

There was a knock on the door outside, and then he heard Akin's voice. "Ashrufat, are you there?"

"I'm here. Ashruphat replied, and he got out of bed and went to open the door.

"Are you taking a nap?" Ah Jin saw Ashrufat's dress, "Ashrufat, this is your official stake letter." Give me the proof of equity documents I gave you earlier, and it's yours. The certificate of ownership already includes the signatures of all parties, including the certificate from the church. In this way, all the formalities are legal. You can use this document to attend shareholder meetings and receive dividends in the future. ”

Ashorufat took out the supporting documents signed by Ah Jin before. "What's the matter, it looks like there's something. He asked casually.

"You don't know what's going on, there's a ruckus in the city!"

"Troublesome?"

"Ah, our regent, son of the Duke of Byron...... It was the one called Little Byron, who was killed directly by gangsters on the street. Aha, now our Duke immediately started the idea of 'law and order'. Now the streets are bustling. ”

"Aha, what's the situation?" asked the person who started it all.

"Anyway, if you walk a few steps, you can see the guards in charge of security arresting people. Our Duke Byron also recruited a group of new men from there to supplement the garrison, so as not to collude with the criminals. God knows where he found so many soldiers. ”

"What happens if you get caught? Won't those ruffians or whatevers run away?"

"If you resist or flee, you will be killed. Ah Jin's voice revealed a bit of coldness. "That's not a joke, those who are soldiers are ruthless enough, openly shoot arrows, and don't care if they hit the innocent by mistake. If caught...... Looking at their efforts to arrest the prisoners, I guess nine out of nine will die under a guillotine or a noose. ”

As he spoke, Ashrufat had already read the equity book given by Akin. It must be said that Ah Jin is still trustworthy in this regard, although he will sell things with a price of one Jin Oli ten times higher, but he will never play fake and shoddy. There is nothing more reliable than the formalities on this equity deed, and the church has been dragged to endorse it.

"Ai Xiurufat, although you are a practitioner, it is better to be careful if you go out now. Look at the situation and hide away directly, so as not to be affected by the pond fish. ”

As they were saying this, there was a sudden noise outside. This is the sound of muskets.

Ashrufat and Ajin exchanged glances, and the two of them quickly rushed to the window. Outside the window, on the side street, they saw several figures over there. Two or three of them were in armor, apparently from the guards, and several others were dressed in ordinary clothes. At this moment, a soldier of the garrison is holding a pistol in his hand, and the smoke has not completely cleared.

In front of him lay a man, limbs spread out, motionless. Ashrufat's vision was very good, so he could clearly see that a bullet had hit the man's head, and the huge force directly lifted his skull. The unlucky headshot guy also had a short sword in his hand.

Well, the scene seen in front of me is beyond the level of "arresting a prisoner", but a kind of sweep, a kind of purge. Ashrufat remembered what Rhodia had said earlier, and it seemed that Rhodia was really prescient. Duke Byron was furious, and really used this way to avenge little Byron. Ashrufat smiled slightly, he was originally worried that little Byron and other subordinates who had not appeared knew the ins and outs of this matter, but now it seems that this accident has not happened.
