Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 101:
"It turns out that Xiao Xiyu already knows..." Surprisingly, when Lei told Mrs. Teague of Zesheng's information, she was not only not surprised, but sighed sadly, "This The child is... so clever!"
"Huh? Do you already know Mrs. Teague?" Ray was taken aback. Please search () to see the most complete! The fastest newest novel
"Of course, my husband died at sea somehow, of course, as a wife, I should investigate carefully." Mrs. Teague said calmly, "I was sure from the beginning that this was not accidental, but a conspiracy, and then based on The principle of “who gets the benefits is the most suspicion”. First, the investigation started from the Church of Honorable Ladies, and clues were quickly found."
She smiled a little: "Although I have retired for many years, I was once an experienced adventurer. When I walked north and south as a ranger, I was still a little famous. The efficiency of my investigation is better than that of Xiaoxi. The fledgling guy from Yu is much taller."
Lei suddenly realized that he couldn't help but smile.
For a long time, he has subconsciously ignored Mrs. Teague's strength, but he never thought about how could he chat and laugh with a group of extraordinary adventurers if he was just an ordinary woman? Paen Knight is a high-level warrior, and Mrs. Teague is at least an intermediate-level adventurer. It is very likely that her strength is on the same level as her husband!
"Since you already know, why haven't you said it all the time?" he asked with some confusion.
"Who should I tell?" Mrs. Teague sighed sadly. "The children are too weak, knowing that this kind of thing is harmful to them. Those old friends I know are not with Pane. If you die in the sea, you will go to the Church of Honorable Ladies. I can only keep this secret in my heart, and when the children grow up, I will settle them somewhere else, and then find someone to investigate."
"But you should at least tell me!" Lei said, "Since I have encountered this kind of thing, I must not ignore it! And my strength is also good-even if I can't, there are my companions. If it’s not working anymore, you can still ask our lord to come forward..."
"You are a real knight! But I don't want to put others in danger for my own affairs."
Ray couldn’t help laughing: "Mrs. Teague, since you admit that I am a knight, then you should know that for the knight, whether to take care of one thing is not determined by whether the person is commissioned or not, but It is up to him whether he thinks this matter should be managed."
He stood up with a solemn expression: "As a knight, I cannot turn a blind eye to the evil conspiracy happening before me! I swear in my honor, I will do my best to expose possible conspiracies! Give the criminals a response. Some punishment!"
Speaking of which, Mrs. Teague has nothing to excuse.
A knight swears by honor is not to be denied. If she insisted on rejecting Ray's help, she would be insulting his honor.
Now that a consensus has been reached on the most critical issue, the following matters are much simpler.
Mrs. Teague told Lei what she had inquired about. Compared with Zesheng, the information she collected was much more detailed, especially some key things that made Lei's eyes bright.
For example, she found someone who had contacted the businessman who initiated the voyage.
The man was Sean Riley, the son of the lord of Gals City, and he has been in charge of the commercial affairs of Gals City. At the beginning, in order to open up a business route, he went to the Secret Tower Federation on a long voyage. He happened to meet the businessman who was going to do business in Baita Port, and the two sides got on the line.
If there is any conspiracy behind this incident, this Sean Riley should not be able to escape. Maybe he was the partner of the chief priest.
Lei nodded slightly: "This information is too important! Now I finally have a breakthrough! I will set off after a while and I will go to this Sean Riley to talk."
"He is not here. Now he is either in Gals City or Yunta Port."
"Yunta Port? Didn't they set up the line at Baita Port?"
"Baita Port is the most important port in our Federation. It is a mixed bag of powerful people and organizations. In order to ensure their interests and safety, they certainly would not choose this port as a transit point for trade routes." Mrs. Teague laughed. He said, "Although Yunta Port is not big, it is enough for a merchant fleet. More importantly, the ruler of Yunta Port is just a senior mage. Even if something goes wrong, it is better than The legendary mage is much easier to deal with-at least, his appetite must be much smaller."
Lei nodded lightly, indicating that he had understood it, and then asked what else to pay attention to.
"There is only one thing left." Mrs. Teague said with a smile, "Our whole family will act with you."
"What?!" Lei was taken aback, "How can this be done! I can trust your strength, Miss Liv can be considered as a fighting force, how can Kenis participate in such an adventurous thing!"
"You are going to take the lead for us, risk investigating the conspiracy, investigating the cause of my husband’s death. It’s impossible for me to just let go, sitting at home watching you take risks, so I must go with you. "Mrs. Teague said calmly, "I'm leaving. With the strength of Liv and Niss, it is not enough to protect myself. Leaving them here is simply giving the enemy hostages or even killing, so I must Bring them."
"...you don't need to come, please trust your strength."
"It has nothing to do with your strength. Just as you are a knight, you have your principles and honors, and as Pane's wife, I also have my principles and honors." Mrs. Teague remained unmoved, her tone Although it is very peaceful, it is as decisive as it is, and there is no room for discussion, "If you feel that we are a burden, we can follow from a distance and will not cause you trouble. But please forgive me, I think we will work together If you act, it’s actually the safest choice."
Lei frowned and looked at Steer, who had been quietly listening next to her, hoping to get her support.
However, it is Mrs. Teague that Steer supports: "Mrs. Teague is right, and I agree with her. We act together, the safest and most reliable."
Lei unexpectedly said that Stil said the same thing, so he had to ask Sui Xiong for instructions.
"Is there any problem with this?" Sui Xiong asked suspiciously, "Isn't it right for a wife to avenge her husband and trace the cause of her husband's death? It is natural for a daughter to avenge her father and trace the cause of his father's death. As for Little Niss, do you leave her alone at home?"
"But...it's too dangerous! Maybe fierce battle will break out!" Lei was almost crazy, "Why don't you think about danger one by one! Niss is so young!"
Sui Xiong finally understood what he meant, and couldn't help yelling: "Damn! Your kid has eyes on the top of his head? Don't I look down on my eldest brother? Even if you can't figure it out, there is still me! Don't worry about fighting. How fierce, can I not even protect a little girl?"
Lei was scolded by him for a dog-blood sprinkler, and he smiled wryly.
So the matter was settled, and Mrs. Teague was also a resolute person, and immediately took Niss to pack her luggage, and put away almost all the valuable or commemorative things in the family. When Liv and a few friends paid off their debts and returned with a smile, she couldn't help being stunned when she saw that the house was empty and about to move.
"This...what's going on?" She asked nerdly, "Are we going to move?"
"It's not a move, we're going to Yunta City." This is the end of the matter. Of course, Mrs. Teague has no need to keep it secret. "There are some doubts in the death of Parn and the others. Mr. Lei agreed to our request. He and Miss Steer will accompany us to Yunta Port to find possible insiders and trace the truth of the shipwreck."
Liv stared blankly at her mother who had been put on leather armor, carrying a longbow, carrying a quiver, and wearing a rapier, and she had also changed into a small leather armor, smiling. Niss, who was running around holding a toy-like shield, couldn't help but wonder her eyes-what is this happening! She never knew that her mother was actually a ranger! And the leather armor of my sister, shouldn't it be prepared long ago!
"...Didn't the fleet have been attacked by the'undercurrent' Tomsar?" she asked.
"Things are a bit weird and there are doubts." Mrs. Teague said, "Since there are doubts, I will keep track of them!"
Liv frowned, and after a while, she nodded and said firmly: "Okay, it shouldn't be too late, let's set off now!"
Sui Xiong couldn't help but raised his thumb in his heart, and quietly said to Lei: "This little girl is also very decisive. The tutor is good!"
"Well, I'm always a little worried." Lei said with a wry smile, "I don't know why, I always have some ominous premonitions."
"Bah, baah! You are so good at being a knight, when did you change your career to be a cudgel? What about the "ominous premonition"... Brother, I don’t have any ominous premonitions, where are your **** premonitions!"
Lei dumbly smiled self-deprecatingly, and suppressed the anxiety in his heart.
As His Majesty said, what danger can there be if he walks along the way? If the protection of a deity is not safe enough, nothing is safe that day, and no place is safe.
"Probably I really think too much..."
"Of course!" Sui Xiong let out a cold snort~IndoMTL.com~ but could not help quietly cast a divination spell.
Unfortunately, because of the conspiracy involved, the divination spell was disturbed, and it was impossible to determine the good or bad of this trip.
"Spells are not easy to use, it's really inconvenient!" He couldn't help muttering in his heart, "Ah! Back then, when I couldn't divination, I lived in a muddle-headed way, and I never felt it was inconvenient. Now I can divination, and encounter If you can’t foretell important events, I feel a little worried..."
He couldn't help but think of the divination he made before he set off. At that time, he divination was "whether the trip went smoothly", and the result was "smooth and unexpected gains".
From the current situation, Ray and Steer can indeed be called "unexpected gains", but the original goal of this trip has failed... Then, what does the "smooth" fortune-telling mean? ?
Oh! Not only mortals can’t do well in this profession, but also deities can’t do well too!
