Release that Witch Chapter 491: The beginning and end of assassination
For a moment, Nightingale felt that the whole black and white world was shaking. ≠
Out of the mist, all the scenes in front of him have recovered their color. The black curtain of God stone dissipated. The heart that was about to jump out of his chest and receded and fell to the ground was not Roland, but an unseen guard. He was wearing a Honeysuckle Family standard costume with a dark red mark on his chest, like Wounds being shot.
"Why are you here?" The familiar voice sounded on his side.
She tilted her head. The speaker was Roland. He was surrounded by several guards around the corner of the hall, so that when he rushed into the room, he didn't notice him at all.
"I ..." Zhang opened his mouth, and Nightingale found that his throat was hoarse, his hands and feet were cold and numb, just like avoided a catastrophe, his body was very soft. At this time, the only thing she wanted to do was to hug the Roland tightly, but she knew that she could n’t do it. There were other nobles here. If she wanted to independently take on the Security Agency and bear the shield of the territory, she could not be in front of everyone Too close to him.
Even though his head clearly told him that he could not, the body walked towards Roland involuntarily, spreading the mist, passing through the guard, and holding him firmly.
There was an exclamation sound at the scene, apparently everyone didn't quite understand why a witch suddenly appeared, disappeared again without saying a word.
In the fog, her arms clung to the prince's back, her head was buried in her chest, and the listener's heartbeat sounded, as if only this could prove that everything was just a false alarm.
Roland seems to be aware of it too, clap your hands to noble, "Let's go to the dining room for lunch first, don't leave the castle for the time being, continue the afternoon session!"
When only the princes personal guard, Petrov, Silvie, and Lightning remained at the scene, he began to ask, "The murderer is related to this assassination?"
Nightingale at this time gradually calmed down, she reluctantly withdrew from the three steps, appeared in shape, pretending to have never approached the prince and said, "Exactly, when I found out that the envoy behind the criminal was Honeysuckle She immediately rushed over. "She told her present and Mance's confession," I didn't expect the other party's real purpose was to lead us away, so as to find a chance to start ... Fortunately, you are safe and sound. "
"I can plan this step, taking into account the timing of my visit and witch," Roland sighed, "this man is really a waste assassin."
Petrov immediately said to the prince kneel on one knee, "His Royal Highness, I really don't know if he is"
"Come up, you have already said this, and I don't like to impose crimes," he interrupted. "But you are also wrong. There are leaks in the castle's employment and peripheral guards. This is yours. Negligence. "
"I ..." Petrov opened his mouth, and finally lowered his head, "I'm guilty."
"Find out his identity and history, I will know the result now."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After the eldest son of Honeysuckle left, Nightingale asked bottom of heart's concerns, "What was the situation at that time?"
"There is no danger," Roland smiled, "Thanks to Silvie's warning ... But then again, he chose to start in the conference hall, he is already at a disadvantage."
After listening to the prince's account, she understood the assassination, but in fact, it was not as easy as he said. Although it was not allowed to bring weapon into the lobby, the enemy hid a short dagger in his clothes, and he was indeed a castle guard, so no one performed a body search and let him enter the lobby directly.
If there is any mistake made by the assassin, it is God Punishment Stone. The patrol guard wearing the God stone was very normal, but in the hall it was particularly conspicuous. In order not to interfere with the observation of Silvie, all the participants noble took off the God stone ornaments as required. The sudden black hole made Silvie notice him immediately. When he walked towards His Highness the Prince, Silvie immediately issued a warning.
Although the next scene Roland is very easy to say, but Nightingale still heard a cold sweat, the hall is almost 20 meters long and wide, it only takes a few short breath time from the enemy to start running and approach the main seat of the long table. . His Royal Highness had just pulled out the revolver and opened the insurance, and the dagger had already stabbed him. The hitting part is the back waist. The Nightingale who has undergone assassination training naturally knows that it is extremely difficult to defend the waist than the chest and skull that are subconsciously guarded. Once injured, severe pain can immediately make the target lose its ability to resist. The next step is probably to cut off Blood vessels in the neck.
Fortunately, His Highness Roland was wearing a protective suit made of Soraya. The dagger failed to penetrate the coating and could not prevent his next move. The gun was fired almost against the assassin's body, and the huge roar caused a mess in the scene. The 22-mm-caliber bullet killed the enemy's life.
Nightingale knew how thrilling this process was. In the case of His Royal Highness, the insurance was not opened. In case the pistol failed to strike successfully, the consequences could not be imagined ... She turned her head and glanced over Lightning, and Xiao Guliang immediately pulled down. His head looked like an honest mistake.
"His Royal Highness, I have found out," Petrov entered the hall again. "His name is Sio, not an Western Region native, and he was a castle guard of Duke Ryan."
"Duke Ryan?" Roland frowned. "Why would you choose such a person as a guard?"
"He was just an ordinary guard. At that time, each family lost a lot of manpower, so I chose come in for those who have little to do with Duke. This is also the historical practice of stronghold ..." Petrov said, "I I don't think he is likely to perform this assassination in order to avenge Duke. "
He did not lie. Nightingale thought that after the fall of a large noble, apart from those who had been sealed off from the territory and title, the remaining people were also natural resource that could be divided in the eyes of other noble. For those being divided up, it is equivalent to changing the owner. Since Honeysuckle has long been with Roland, and stronghold has been assigned to Petrov for management, these people have not been reviewed.
"How many people from this age are there?" asked Roland. "You use Wild Rose, Maple Leaf, and Wolf Family?"
"There are only three or four outside the castle," Petrov nodded. "In addition, three families's servants, citizen, and serfs have been classified as Honeysuckle and Elk. I guarantee that they will not appear in stronghold."
"Well, I don't care about those people, but in the castle area, even the outer guards, you have to choose from your family, understand? As for the guards in the castle, I will arrange them myself. "
"As you bid, Your Highness."
"In addition, the Sio's home is closed. I will find out the real reason for his assassination." Roland looked at Lightning, "notify Macy, and let her bring Speer Earl to Longsong." (To be continued.) 8
