Release that Witch Chapter 879: Reason for betrayal
Why does Dotter Somer mention this?
At that time, a serious riot broke out in Silver Light City. Hundreds of absentee workers died after a series of mining disasters. Employers were only willing to compensate for freemen losses. The attitude of turning a blind eye to those migrant workers hired at low prices inspired the families of the victims Anger. Unwilling to wait for the dead exiles to swarm from mining site, burn and plunder all the way, and finally rely on the suppression of the Kingdom Capital Knight group to restore order.
Parents the same day have been away for a long time. It wasn't until the older sister and brother were sent to the old Glen Family that Nightingale heard the death of the parents from the other side.
But the meaning in the Viscount words does not seem to be the case?
She did not expect an accident that had passed more than a decade, and there was still the possibility of subversion. If it is true that the other party said, what is to be investigated this time is no longer just the relationship between Hyde and the Somer family.
Nightingale exited the room silently, passed through the floors, reached the basement floor, and then activated the Listening Sigil, which he carried with him.
What was originally prepared for Roland to call her back at any time, but I did not expect it would come in handy in this way.
"It's really suspicious," Roland on the Sigil side replied after listening, "So you have to stay longer in the mansion?"
"Yes, I want to wait until the evening to ask Hyde personally ... what he might know." Nightingale hesitated, "Sorry, Your Majesty, I ..."
"Nothing to apologize for," Roland interrupted her quickly, "I will wait for you in camp until you finish the investigation. Rest assured, as long as I do n’t go out, it ’s not a violation Appointment. Instead, you should pay attention to your safety, don't be too impulsive, regardless of situation, report to me every two hours. "
Nightingale bottom of heart swelled a warm current, and she was silent for a while before answering softly, "Yes, I understand."
...
It wasn't until the moonlight outside the skylight disappeared that Nightingale left the cellar and walked towards the room where Hyde was located. Before that, she had confirmed the location of her brother. The sun sinking in the moon means that the time is close to three o'clock at midnight. Most people have fallen asleep. Even the vigilant guards will inevitably fall asleep, so it is the most suitable time for her to act.
Hyde's bedroom is located on the ground floor of the mansion, near the back garden. Generally speaking, only servants and guests who are not too important will be placed here. This has confirmed from the side that the two guards did not have the words of the Viscount Dotter. Treating the successors of Glen Family as too much, also made Nightingale realize that the friendliness of the childhood Somer family may be disguised.
However, the other side's contempt made her a lot more relaxed. There was no one guarding the whole hall to the aisle. In this way, even if something happened, she had enough time to get out.
After entering the bedroom, Nightingale dragged his brother straight out of the quilt. When he woke up from a dream and hadn't fully recovered, a dagger with a cold light had reached his neck. on.
"Exclamation, crying for help, crying will all die, understand?" She whispered behind Hyde.
The latter nodded hurriedly.
"Good, turn around now and see who I am?"
Hyde is a snapshot, but when he saw the face of the visitor through the dim moonlight, his eyes widened sharply! If it weren't for the dagger around his neck, he would almost scream.
But he finally managed to hold back.
After confirming that the other party ’s emotions are stable, Nightingale slowly withdrew the dagger.
"Why are you here?" Hyde said with a quivering voice, "Shouldn't you have died long ago?"
When I heard him speak, the dusty memory suddenly came to my heart. At that moment, Nightingale seemed to be back in the old Glen Family. The pain of betrayed by her brother and the crushing of her distant relatives drove her to death, even conscious They all startled.
This is the person in front of her, tearing her most vulnerable side with her hands, expose is in front of uneasy outsiders.
"Why do you say that?" She bit her tongue bit by bit, letting the rust smell dispel the thoughts in her head.
"Because, because ..." Hyde swallowed, "Timothy rummaged Kingdom Capital and surrounding cities several times and declared that all witch had been executed by him. No, but, Veronica, I mean, Sister ... I didn't want you to die. I was shocked when I heard the news, thinking that if you don't leave without permission, nothing will happen.
Veronica ... She hasn't heard the name for a long time, but after many years, she is no longer as trustworthy as before.
magic power, which shakes like a string, has told her that the second half of the answer is all lie.
"How did you get together with the Viscount Dotter Somer?"
"Uh, this ..." He lingered slightly. "After the death of the old Glen, the family often quarreled constantly. I'm not sure about the specific situation. I only know that when I inherit the title, there is almost nothing in the house. The savings are at stake. Just then, Lord Viscount approached the door, and I had no choice. "[Lying]
"He forced you to join the Somer family?"
"Yes, he said that if I don't promise, I will be removed ..." [lying]
"What are you doing for him now?" Nightingale said calmly, "Relief for the poor?"
"No," Hyde gritted his teeth. "He just used me as a guise, but he was actually selling Dreamland Water! Those Mouses who shipped for him were in the crowd, and I only discovered his tricks recently!"
The first half of magic power does not respond, but the second half is still lie.
Nightingale found that he was not annoyed, and even a little relaxed ... Yes, that's the feeling, this is the normal state of normal conversation. lie is constant, half true and false ... The human heart is always changing, even if the blood is connected, the real voice of the other party cannot be heard. Since her ability awakened, she has long been accustomed to such situation, whether it is to face the lie without changing the color, or to peel off the truth from layers of bluffs.
Rather, it was the conversation of Roland that rarely noticed magic power's beating, which made her difficult to adapt for a short while.
At this moment, the Hidden Shadow assassin lurking in the darkness, trembling in the noble in the central area, is back.
"What are you going to do next?"
Hearing this sentence, Hyde suddenly fell to the ground, crying pleadingly, "Sister, please help me!"
"Help you?"
He climbed two steps forward, "I know it was bad for me before ... but I am your brother and sister! Lord Viscount didn't treat me as noble at all, you also saw that he actually treated the servant The house was used for me, and the restoration of this mansion was just for the purpose of concealing people's eyes. He will stay here, and he will come to me one day or another! "
"So you want me to take you away?"
"Let ’s go? Is there nothing left?" Hyde shook his head in panic, and then hated, "You killed the old Glen? Although you do n’t know what abilities you use, you can easily If you enter here, you will surely be able to enter his bedroom. Sister, kill him! As soon as he dies, I will have a chance to become a real Somer noble! Then, then you will kill all the other heirs, this territory ... and all the properties of the Somer family are ours! "
Nightingale stared at his eyes for a long time without answer. Until Hyde lowered her head again uneasily, she said, "Before that, I want to ask you a question first."
"Yes, yes ..." his brother responded quickly.
"Why did you betray me then?" asked Nightingale word by word.
