Section 79 is old and spicy

As usual, Ashrufat had changed shifts to Essien before the little girl woke up.

Everything looked no different than usual, at least until he came to Flower Street (the street he had to walk through to get back to his apartment). But when he tried to cross the street, a child stopped him.

The child was familiar, and Ashrufat vaguely remembered seeing him a few times. The last time I saw this child seemed to be in the trade area or the port, it was to pass the word for Rodia.

"Mr. Aeshurufat. The child said to Ashrufat. "Ms. Rhodia wants to see you. ”

"See me?" said Ashruphat without even thinking about it. This Rhodia seems to be really well-informed...... But it's big news, and it's happening on Rhodia's turf. "Okay, I'll go over right away, is she in her own store?"

"Yes. She made a special confession...... When she sees you, she immediately asks you to go to her shop. The little one added. "She's closed today, but if you knock on the door, she'll open it. ”

Following the child's instructions, Ashrufat soon came to the door of the Red Rose. As mentioned before, the store is closed. At this time, this is a very normal thing for a store located on Flower Street, but it is not normal for Rhodia this store. Because Ashruphat clearly knew that the "Red Rose" was closed for a short time, and many times he came here during the day, with no guests at all, while Rhodia was there almost every time.

Ashrufat had a particularly early shift today, and the streets were sparsely populated with pedestrians, so it could be seen that there were no suspicious people following him. He knocked the closed door, "Lady Rodia, I'm Ashrufat, are you looking for me?"

The door was opened. Ashrufat walked in, and Rhodia immediately closed the door again.

"What's wrong?" the hotel was dimly lit because the doors were closed. Although this had no effect on Ashrufat's vision, Rhodia's secretive appearance looked a little abnormal.

Rhodia didn't answer immediately, she closed the door and immediately returned to the counter. As usual, she stood inside the counter, and Ashrufat sat down against the counter.

"Mr. Esseurofat...... I want to ask one thing. Yesterday, Byron Jr. and all four of his bodyguards were killed on the streets of Flower Street...... Do you know the truth?"

"Of course. Ashruphat laughed. "I killed it. ”

"Mr. Aerufat," Rothea sighed softly, "you seem to be ...... I don't understand what's going on yet. ”

"It has nothing to do with whether I understand it or not, it's his own death. Ashrufat replied. "I don't have a second option at all, so it's not a matter of right or wrong. What can I do? Let them kill me?"

"But the consequences...... It can be serious. Rhodia returned to her normal look. "Mr. Aerufat, Duke Byron and General Rafa have been at a stalemate with each other for so long...... Maintaining this delicate balance, you just snap a casual sword and completely break it up. ”

"Why do you say that?" replied Ashrufat. "I remember rumors everywhere that the duke was much more amorous than he looked, and that he had many lovers besides legitimate wives and concubines. Isn't it just that he's admitting to being an illegitimate child? The lost balance will be restored immediately, won't he?"

"There are a lot of people and things involved here, and it's hard to put into words. Rhodia replied. "But to put it simply...... Little Byron was very much loved by the Duke of Byron. There are always many things in the world that are beyond the logical scope of human beings, and the most useless son may receive the most favor from his father. ”

"So...... What does this have to do with me?" Ashrufat asked rhetorically. "I could have been on duty in the palace and protecting our little queen!"

"Don't underestimate Duke Byron's intelligence capabilities. Rhodia replied. "Don't underestimate his determination to take revenge. Finally, don't underestimate his ambitions. ”

"It has nothing to do with my underestimation and overestimation. Ashruphat laughed. "Give me a drink. ”

Rhodia did as he was told, and a few minutes later, a drink mixed with lemon, honey, and a hint of wine was delivered to him. "Mr. Ashrufat, you know that you have a problem for me. ”

"Ah, can murders on the street still be involved with you women?"

"Of course not...... Do you know what little Byron will suddenly find you, or how did he know about it?"

"Is that critical?" asked Ashrufat.

"Well, Mr. Eshurufat, the Underground Realm of Eagle Falcon City...... I'm afraid there's going to be a terrible upheaval soon. ”

"What do you mean?"

"A lot of people will die. Rhodia said. "You must have heard about the bustle of the execution ground recently...... Legend has it that our Duke Byron spent a month pulling up all the nails and stakes that General Rafa had placed in the middle and lower floors. Our Regent...... Not a person who cares about life, at least not a person who cares about the lives of others. ”

"What the hell does it mean!"

"I'm worried that things might be moving towards a ...... Directions I never expected. Rhodia didn't seem to hear Ashrufat's words, but spoke in a tone of self-talk. "A flick of your arm with your sword changes a large part of the city. ”

"Can you not play dumb riddles. Ashrufat said. "What will happen. ”

"To be honest, I can't really guess what's going to happen. Rhodia replied. "But I can tell you a little bit about what happened before...... Speaking of which, in fact, it is also Mr. Ishrufat, you yourself are not secretive enough, it doesn't matter if you take the little queen out to hang out, but you have been noticed by someone who cares. She said.

"You mean...... This person has a heart...... Little Byron?"

"No, no, this man with a heart wants to kill little Byron with your hand. In fact, if you don't resist that day and let little Byron capture the queen may be the most beneficial option for you. ”

A mocking smile appeared on Ashrufat's face, but he did not answer.

"Anyway, I don't think paper can hold the fire. I guess that one, although he has exhausted all his powers, still underestimated the old and spicy methods of Duke Byron after all. In this case, with the love of Duke Byron's beloved son...... He must have angered the Underground Realm of Eagle Falcon City...... I'm afraid there will be a thunderous blow. I am afraid that the guillotines and gallows in our execution ground will not have a chance to be free. Rhodia seemed to be serious. "When the time comes, I don't know what kind of situation the Dao Dao Underground World Realm will be, and I don't know if I can rely on this opportunity to control everything......

When she said the last sentence, she looked at Ashrufat with a smile. "You are right, Mr. Ashrufat, it just happened, and there was no choice at all. But...... Maybe that's more challenging. Once again, she regained her usual slightly debaucherous and provocative smile and looked at Ashrufat.

......

Nighthawk had received Byron's letter a few days later in the morning. It was a secret letter from a messenger, and it was delivered directly to him. The contents of the letter were similar to most of the letters he had received in the past, and when he read it, he immediately went to the duke's mansion for a meeting.

He read it again, and as he read the words written on the paper, he felt his heart beat uncontrollably in ecstasy. It wasn't a regular meeting, and he wouldn't be allowed to attend those impromptu meetings. The Duke of Byron wrote to him in particular, and there was only one answer: this improvised meeting was of vital concern to him. Could it be so late to investigate the cause of Byron Jr.'s death, and would it not be so early to have a normal monthly routine? Then that's what he's waiting for.

"Your Excellency, the Duke, tell me to come with me at once. The messenger watched as he finished reading the letter, and added.

"Of course, of course. Nighthawk said. "Wait a minute, let me change my clothes. ”

He went back to his room, and took great pains to get dressed this time. He could neither dress too flashy to irritate Byron, nor be too ordinary to make a bad impression on Byron. At the end of the day, he dressed himself up in an ordinary and distinctive outfit, and dressed himself up as if he were a guest in a foreign land, so that he could attract attention without giving people a sense of outrageousness. Then he followed the messenger to the palace of the Duke of Byron.

The porter of the Regent's Mansion opened the door when he saw the messenger. Except for a little more soldiers on duty, everything seems to be no different from the past. When Nighthawk arrived in the conference room, there were already a lot of people in the room. This time there were no tables or chairs in the room, and in fact the scene was more akin to the court: Duke Byron sat on a chair, surrounded by a dozen or so familiar but unknown faces of Nighthawk. It doesn't look like a normal meeting.

Nighthawk immediately calmed down, and he looked left and right, trying to find his place. But these first comers had taken over the top, so that for a moment he could only stand at the bottom.

"I have summoned you here today mainly because of a sudden accident. Duke Byron said. "My son was killed, killed in the street, along with the four guards he was with. As he said these words, his voice seemed cold rather than sad. "It's a complete conspiracy. ”

Others expressed sympathy. Nighthawk suddenly sensed something was wrong in the atmosphere...... But to be honest, he felt it, but he couldn't figure out what this atmosphere was for a while.

"It was a man dressed like a bard, but with a weapon with him. Duke Byron said word for word. "According to some information I have heard, it is said that the man has a scar on his face, especially on the bridge of his nose, and that he is accompanied by a little girl. His gaze looked around the room, and the last one was fixed on Nighthawk.
