Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 162: Front and back attack

"You mean, my brother and the wine merchant?" asked Hilley.

"Yes," Thales nodded, and calmly explained, "On the surface, Dagory Moss is a wine merchant in the central government, but secretly he is serving your brother. Of course, he is also stealing Your brother's money filled his own pocket. Until the secret department found him and used this to instigate Moss."

"Well, no surprise."

"All I know is that the Kingdom Secret Division sent Moss back to Emerald City, asked him to find your brother, and proposed to come to me as a double-faced undercover agent, and the result..."

"As a result, my brother caught Moss in public by surprise on the first day," Xi Lai bit his cigarette holder, exhaled a puff of cigarettes, and said vaguely from the corner of his mouth, "Use him to splash you with dirty water and say Are you covering up profiteers?"

"Thank you for reminding me again," Thales frowned, "but that's the problem."

"What's the problem?"

"Moss just found me, and he was arrested before he even had time to attend a banquet with me," Thales said. Getting closer, contacting more, arresting Moss again, and counting the crimes, wouldn't it hurt my reputation even more, and make me indisputable? Why is Jen so eager to start?"

Xilei's eyes rolled: "Maybe because the wine merchant once served him, my brother was worried that he knew too much, so he acted first?"

"Maybe."

Thales showed a thoughtful expression:

"In short, I was a little caught off guard. In order to stay in the Emerald City with peace of mind, I had to reveal a little secret to Zhan En."

"A little secret?"

Thales nodded and said:

"I'll tell your brother that Moss is a secret spy who instigated rebellion, and he was used to provoke my relationship with him. As for the fact that I was sent to marry you, it was a king's conspiracy to get Go down to the Emerald City and annex the South Shore Territory."

Heilei snorted softly:

"That is to say, you betrayed His Majesty and the Secret Department to clear yourself up?"

Thales' complexion did not change:

"It's for the big picture, they will understand, besides..."

You should count the times they betrayed me.

Thales thought unhappily.

"And what?"

Thales returns to the current conversation:

"After several days of trial and error, I discovered that Zhan En is well aware of the situation in the kingdom and himself."

Thales recalled what Jann said to him at the Battle Banquet, and his expression became serious:

"As early as when the marriage letter arrived at Kongming Palace, Zhan En guessed my father's plot against Emerald City, and guessed what Fuxing Palace sent me to do."

Hile showed a suspicious expression: "Are you sure?"

"He rushed to Eternal Star City on purpose for this reason, and used tricks to thwart the ambition of the Renaissance Palace," Thales said affirmatively, "The worst time, he almost killed two lives just by sending out a sword. At the royal banquet, the imperial meeting was in full swing."

"Sounds like his style," Hilley nodded, his complexion changed, "wait a minute, but this means..."

"Yes, Jen knew everything from the very beginning," Thales said coldly, "he's just playing with me all the time, 'What? Your father actually wants to kill me? What? You also oppose your father ? That's great, Thales, let's put aside our past and cooperate!'."

Xilai looked at him with distaste: "How many stupid stage plays have you watched in the Temple of the Night?"

Thales coughed awkwardly:

"Since that's the case, with Zhan En's suspicious nature, he must have started to suspect that the wine merchant who had served him had already been approached by Dagory Moss when he first found him and proposed to approach me. He was betrayed by Wang Guomike."

"So that's how it is," Xi Lai said suddenly, "so, my brother made up his mind to arrest that wine merchant on the first day he joined your team, so as not to let him play the role of a secret agent, but also to arrest him." Can ruin your reputation."

But Thales shook his head:

"Too fast."

"What is too fast?"

Thales took a deep breath:

"According to what I know about Zhan En, if he really suspects that Moss is a spy of the Kingdom's Secret Division..."

Hey Lai reacted: "Then my brother should keep calm and play tricks, let that wine merchant approach you, let Moss pretend to report back to him, let Moss be a self-righteous spy?"

Thales nodded:

"In order to know yourself and the enemy, wait for the opportunity to make the most of the value of Moss, and in turn discover the actions of the Kingdom's Secret Department and the Fuxing Palace. It seems that you also know your brother very well."

Hile narrowed his eyes:

"But instead of doing that, my brother arrested the wine merchant."

"And just a few hours after Dagory Moss met me," Thales said, "the Emerald Legion was fully armed and counted the crimes in public."

The prince solemnly said:

"This is tantamount to directly discarding this chess piece: even if Moss does not die, he will be imprisoned, he will never be able to appear in front of others, and he will no longer be able to generate value, let alone use him to spy on the secret department or the Fuxing Palace."

Hilley understands:

"So, this chess piece that could have been very valuable was abandoned by my brother too quickly."

Thales nodded, deeply suspicious:

"It's not in his interest to go too fast."

"Our investigation has hit a snag."

In Thales' lounge, Mallos' brief summary made His Royal Highness blush.

"First of all, Kongmuto, he tried to find the acquaintances he knew in the police station as before, trying to get the files of the Dagori Moss case and learn about his previous activities in the Emerald City, but Moss After Si died, the relevant case files were sealed, and..."

Mallos did not continue, but looked behind him.

Kong Mutuo coughed, took a step forward, and continued embarrassingly:

"And what's even more strange is that my friend in the security office just tentatively raised his mouth, and was warned by Shangfeng, saying that he shouldn't ask, don't ask. This made him scared to death, and he refused to ask Disclose the news to us... I think it will be difficult to dig things from the line of the Vigilante Office."

Obviously, someone didn't want them to find out.

Thales had a cold face, stroking the puppet bear in his hand expressionlessly:

"So, the clue is broken here?"

Mallos turned his head, and on the other side, Wyah stepped forward excitedly:

"Fortunately, Your Highness, thanks to the management regulations of Emerald City, the document retention system of various departments is quite complete."

"Documents? File?" Thales narrowed his eyes.

Wyah nodded:

"There is a report file in the city hall: A few days ago, the security department blocked an intersection in Dianjin District, saying that it was searching for fugitives, but the signature was unusual. It was the chief of the security department himself. The second day after Moss was arrested, and the men sent were all police officers related to the Moss case.”

Thales' eyes light up:

"So it must be related to Moss... But, how did you know that there is this filing file?"

Speaking of this, Huai Ya's smile faltered, and her voice lowered:

"There is a new intern clerk in the city hall. We met at the dinner. He is...he has an uncle who works in the capital and happens to be in the Department of Foreign Affairs, so he is willing to make it easier for us."

Department of Foreign Affairs...

Thales was a little silent: So, it was thanks to Gilbert.

"Very well, then?"

"Morgan and Oscarsen went to that intersection," Mallos said, "The blockade has been lifted, but..."

The watchman looks behind him.

Oscarsen took a step forward, carefully staring at the cute bear in Thales's hand, tremblingly: "That's where rich gentry and rich businessmen live together, Your Highness, so the police station search should also be reported to the city hall, but The problem is..."

"It's been 'cleaned up'," the veteran Morgan couldn't stand it anymore, he said decisively, with a murderous look, "The neighbors around, the guards at the gate, the vendors selling snacks on the street, and even the driver who often runs that road We were all greeted, and all of them kept secret about the words 'wine merchant', 'fugitive' and 'arrest', as if someone would come to inquire if they were sure, but no one would open their mouths."

"There are still people watching around the intersection," Oscarson added, and glanced at Morgan nervously, "It should be the local police officer, or even the Emerald Legion. We, we managed to get rid of them."

Fuck you, Jen.

Thales sighed:

"So, the clue is broken again?"

"Not necessarily," Oscarson said. "A coachman said that not long ago, he pulled a man who looked exactly like that Moss, and watched him enter one of the mansions."

Thales' expression changed: "Really?"

"Wait," Wyatt couldn't help asking, "But you just said that everyone around you was greeted, and no one would speak?"

Morgan glared at him and snorted coldly: "Yes."

"Why is that coachman willing to speak?"

"We are civilized and polite," Oscarson quickly took over the conversation, "ask him in a nice voice, and he is willing to speak."

Wyah narrowed his eyes and looked at Morgan's arm:

"Pioneer Morgan, why are your fists and knuckles bruised?"

Morgan hid his hands calmly, and said coldly:

"I just practiced boxing today, against... sandbags."

Everyone suddenly realized.

"You mean," Huai Ya doubted, "practice boxing in a civilized and polite way?"

Morgan's eyes are like knives, full of murderous intent:

"Have you asked enough?"

"Anyway, Your Highness," Oscarson quickly interrupted, turning the subject around, "We found out, um, the mansion that Moss visited belonged to a wool merchant named Diop."

"Wool merchant? Diop?"

Thales pondered:

"So, Moss visited this Diop, and then?"

Mallos nodded: "Ms. Diop said that on the day Moss was arrested, her husband left home early, but he hasn't returned for a long time, and his whereabouts are still missing."

The prince frowned suddenly:

"The clue is broken again?"

Mallos coughed lowly: "That's not necessarily true."

"All right," Thales sighed, "Which supernatural Xinghu guard is this time again?"

Mallos looked at his subordinates with a rare...unnatural expression.

"Guard Danny Doyle, he learned through unconventional means," the watchman tried his best to tell the truth, "that Mr. Diop, he has a mistress outside, and another residence."

Thales was taken aback for a moment:

"You mean D.D, what unconventional way?"

Mallos paused for a moment, as if blaming Thales for not talking too much, but he continued:

"As far as I know, Mr. Diop's wife, she has a good eye for Officer Doyle, so she was persuaded by Doyle..."

Blue eyes are added...

As soon as this remark came out, the Xinghu guards booed "It really is".

Thales narrowed his eyes.

Everyone chattered and chatted in a strange way: "I don't know how D.D 'convinced' her..."

"Of course I use my mouth..."

"That's right, D.D's eloquence is really good..."

"Where did you convince me?"

"In a warm and cramped bedroom?"

"Mr. Diop has no objection to this?"

"Mr. Diop doesn't know..."

"Better not needing to know, right?"

"Silence!" Mallos had to maintain order, "We are talking about business!"

Thales rubbed his forehead and realized:

"Wait, what about D.D?"

"I was about to talk about this. He and Glover Vanguard volunteered." Mallos frowned, "Go to the residence of Mr. Diop's mistress first to find out information."

This remark caused everyone to whisper to each other in a strange way:

"Hey..."

"Why is he so active..."

"Get credit, this is..."

"It must be for that mistress..."

"Could it be because of Mr. Diop?"

"Then who knows..."

"But he also brought zombies..."

"Three people, it's more fun..."

"You mean back and forth?"

"And Mr. Diop, that's four people..."

"Why do you like Mr. Diop so much..."

But amid all the inexplicable discussions, Mallos keenly noticed:

Prince Thales frowned deeply.

"Have you ever thought that Moss was arrested so quickly because my brother is too afraid of secret science?"

Heilei raised a question: "He didn't want to take the risk of using this chess piece, so he cut off the secret department's hand from the root, and killed the conspiracy in the cradle?"

"It's possible," Thales nodded, "but in this case, he's too slow."

"Too slow?" Xi Lai asked suspiciously, "You mean, if my brother is so afraid of secret science, then he shouldn't have asked Moss to see you at all, he should have suspected Moss immediately , just kill or arrest, so as not to cause trouble?"

"Yeah," Thales said, "this is what I don't understand: If Zhan En still wants to use Moss, it would be too fast for him to abandon Moss. , then it seems too slow for him to arrest Moss."

"Maybe, his mentality is between the two. He wants to use Moss to give you a hard time, but he is also afraid of secret subjects in the dark, and he doesn't want to give them a chance?"

"Maybe, it barely makes sense," Thales sighed, "until last night."

Hey Lai exhaled a puff of smoke: "Moss is dead?"

Thales nodded.

"No matter who did it, a secret spy with a sensitive identity died in his prison, Zhan En should be more vigilant and suspicious, and pursue him after all," the prince showed a suspicious expression, "but he always To instigate his subordinates to forge evidence and even the time of the incident, and try his best to cover it up, saying that this is so as not to affect the feast. Second, after I found out and pointed it out, he followed my words and tried to convince me that it was done by the secret department, saying The death of Moss is just a misleading, saying that Moss may be used by the secret department to provoke conflicts, but this was originally a story I made up a few days ago to win him."

"Unless it's what Jann himself did," Hilley frowned, "There's something wrong with that wine merchant."

Thales nodded in agreement:

"In this way, I probably pieced together another set of truths."

Thales rubbed his hand lightly, his eyes bright:

"In the beginning, Moss went to Zhan En, making the latter suspect that the wine merchant had been betrayed by the secret department. In order to obtain the greatest benefit."

"But when I arrived in Emerald City, Jen suddenly discovered that there was something wrong with Moss. This made your brother change his mind and decided to abandon the original plan and arrest Moss on the street, even after he was imprisoned. Pursue him with all his might, to put his mouth to death."

Heilei frowned: "What's wrong with Moss?"

Thales shook his head:

"I don't know. But since Jen can rest assured that Moss will approach me, he must have thoroughly investigated Moss before, and it must not be some old rotten old thing that can make him change his mind, such as Moss. So rich in private pockets or losing money in the liquor business."

Heilei nodded in understanding:

"And it must have happened after the wine merchant arrived in the Emerald City, maybe even before he went to you?"

Thales nodded: "Exactly."

"It's the kingdom's secret department."

Heilei pondered for a few seconds, and said with certainty:

"No matter what problem Zhan En found from Moss, which made him lose his composure, it must have something to do with the secret science. This is the only explanation."

Thales agreed, solemnly said:

"I think, on the matter of Moss, maybe the Kingdom Secret Division and your brother, they have already fought back and forth for several rounds in the dark where they can't see."

Hey Lai remembered something, and his expression changed slightly:

"Wait, so you sent someone to track down Moss?"

"Already gone, just as we speak."

"Get them back."

"Okay, what did you say?" Thales asked in surprise.

I saw Xi Lai shaking his head:

"If the problems with Moss really make my brother so afraid... Believe me, you can't find anything."

"Are you sure?"

Hilley affirmed:

"First of all, you are outsiders. With my brother's control over this city, you can't hide any of your actions from him..."

"Secondly, if your subordinates are lucky and find clues, it will be even worse. Then with my brother's character, he will do whatever it takes to..."

Thales frowned:

"What do you mean?"

"It means..."

Xilai took a deep breath and said seriously:

"Your men, they are in danger."

"We are one step late."

In a luxurious mansion, D.D followed Glover into a room full of **** smell and the curtains were drawn tightly.

"This should be the wool merchant named Diop, and his mistress. They have been hiding here these days until..."

Glorver frowned and looked at the man and woman on the bed who had been dead for a long time.

Behind him, D.D leaned against the wall with a pale face, and took a deep breath.

"Have you ever seen a dead person?"

"Yes, it's just..." D.D gritted his teeth and forced himself to look at the pair of corpses on the bed, "They didn't even have to kill her."

Coloft opened the curtains calmly, and the light shone into the room: Diop's expression was terrified before he died.

"It's not 'them', it's 'he'."

"Him?"

"This technique was done by the same person," Glover grabbed Diop's wrist and observed carefully, "Stop the target and break the wrist, just like Moss in prison."

"The only difference is that in order to avoid the target struggling, Moss was probably silenced after being knocked out, and this..."

Looking at Diop's expression, then at the stained bed sheet, Glover frowned:

"Diop was tied to the bed and couldn't move. He could only watch himself bleeding and dying slowly."

Feel life leaving the body little by little.

D.D managed to adjust and resume normal breathing:

"Why?"

"If you want me to guess, it's for torture." Glover looked at the wound, "In this case, he will answer whatever you ask."

"No, I mean, why kill him?"

"Like Moss, the wool merchant must know something."

Clang.

There was a sudden muffled noise from upstairs, which startled both of them.

D.D took a deep breath and lowered his voice:

"You just said that we are late?"

Glorver stared at the ceiling, held down the hilt of the sword, bent his knees slightly, and quietly stepped out of the room:

"It seems that he hasn't left yet, and is still searching upstairs."

"What do we do?"

"There are stairs on both sides of the corridor, you left and right, we blocked him upstairs."

The expression of D.D, who followed him out of the room on tiptoe, changed: "Really? What if he jumped out of the window? How about I call some backup..."

"He's about to run away, we don't have time," Glover narrowed his eyes, "It's just right, let's recall, how much of your sword skills are left now!"

After the words fell, Glover took a step forward and quietly touched the stairs to one side.

"Oops!"

D.D whispered: "Glorver!"

But the matter has come to this point, Doyle has no choice but to follow Glover's arrangement, stepping softly and touching the stairs on the other side.

Dad really missed it.

D.D leaned against the wall, cursing in his heart while walking:

Staying by the prince's side, what kind of job is this "eating, drinking, and dawdling"!

He quietly went up to the second floor, and what appeared in front of him was a dark corridor.

D.D swallowed: I'm not afraid of the dark.

Right now.

"It came so fast," a strange voice sounded through the wall, cold, hoarse, and full of ominousness, "Big man, are you a prince's man?"

D.D was startled at first, and immediately reacted:

Oops, the enemy found Glover!

"Hmph, you hide your head and show your tail," Glover's voice sounded, obviously no longer hiding his figure, "Are you a wanted man, or are you too ugly to be seen?"

Doyle hastened to speed up to join Glover, preparing to attack back and forth.

The enemy laughed grimly:

"So, you're the royal guard, right?"

But before D.D could run a few steps, he hit a wall!

Fuck!

Doyle understood and cursed in his heart:

After going up the stairs on both sides, the two sides are not connected to each other!

And Glover... probably still waiting for him to "flank back and forth"?

The situation is urgent, D.D gritted his teeth and ran back!

Fuck your grandma's zombie! What a bad idea, **** your back and forth!

"How much did the iris give you?" Glover asked from the other side of the wall.

"Enough."

After the words fell, there was a sudden sound of weapons clashing, accompanied by Glover's roar!

Obviously, Glover has fought the enemy.

"Glorver!"

Doyle didn't care about being spotted by the enemy, and shouted while running, reminding him of his position:

"Guardian Glover?"

Fortunately, Glover is considered to be the most skilled person around the prince, um, maybe except for Arend?

But soon, the sound of fighting stopped.

Glorver's roar no longer came.

D.D's heart tightens~IndoMTL.com~ Glover? "

No way?

"Karen Glover?"

But Glover didn't answer.

"Zombie?"

D.D roared:

"Golofo? A zombie of a mud horse!"

"Answer me!"

Glorver still didn't answer.

Doyle became more and more anxious. He rushed up the stairs that Glover had walked in two or three steps, and rushed up the corridor on the second floor.

Rush into the darkness and the unknown in front of you.
