101 The knights who want to take the blame
A woman, especially a very beautiful woman, longs for nice-looking clothes, gorgeous jewelry, and luxurious mansions.
However, these are all beyond Judy's reach. In the final analysis, she is just a killer who can kill an entire family for thirty gold pounds.
Facing this man who smiled and could decide her life or death with a single thought, Judy felt more and more humble.
But the young baron in front of him made it clear that he would not kill anyone and silence him, and he took the initiative to give his name. What did this mean?
Judy was a little confused and stared at the other person with confusion, feeling increasingly uneasy...
At the same time, at the headquarters of the Knights, in the head's office.
Captain Omar Hill looked at the people in front of him with a heavy expression, and the office was filled with a depressing atmosphere.
Last night, after learning about the situation, Captain Omar Hill rushed back from Phoenix Town overnight.
At the city hall, the mayor and the speaker of the council are putting pressure on the Knights to find out the cause of the fire and the person responsible within three days.
In fact, things like fires were not originally under the control of the Knights, but this time the commotion was too big, and the loss of people and property was huge. According to preliminary statistics compiled in the morning, fifty corpses have been found so far.
, it is expected that the actual death toll will exceed 200 people.
Faced with such a serious situation, His Majesty the King has personally intervened, and even Captain Omar Hill cannot shirk it.
However, after a fire, almost all traces left on the scene were reduced to ashes.
Even a fortune teller will find it difficult to obtain more valuable information without the necessary media for divination.
This made Captain Omar Hill and the top brass of the Knights quite anxious.
Because Captain Omar Hill was away last night, the mayor and the council seemed to have reached a tacit agreement and insisted on blaming this matter on the Knights.
If the investigation results cannot be obtained as soon as possible, they are likely to join forces to push the Knights out of the way.
Captain Omar Hill saw their sinister intentions as soon as he came back, but he had no choice but to do his best to investigate.
In the quiet and depressing atmosphere, Captain Omar Hill finally said: "Three days! I only give you three days to find the person who set the fire, otherwise..."
As he spoke, a heavy aura enveloped everyone present, making it almost impossible to breathe, including Deputy Captain Lucas. As an intermediate transcendent, he also felt the suffocating pressure.
Fortunately, Captain Omar Hill's momentum quickly subsided.
"Yes!" Several senior members of the Knights breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly agreed and exited the office.
As the last person quietly closed the door to the head's office, Captain Omar Hill let out a long breath, closed his eyes tiredly, and leaned back on the office chair.
After receiving the news last night, I rushed back from Phoenix town without stopping, went directly to the fire scene to inspect, and then arranged for manpower to launch an investigation.
Captain Omar Hill did not rest for a moment, and was about to take a nap, but unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Who?" Omar Hill asked, pinching the bridge of his nose.
In fact, she didn't say please come in, she had already expressed her attitude, don't disturb her if it's not something very important.
Outside the door, the group leader's secretary looked at Rudy in embarrassment.
Rudy was unmoved and walked up to knock on the door.
The secretary was taken aback. She didn't expect Rudy to dare to be so rude. She wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
"Dong dong dong~"
There was another knock on the door, which made Captain Omar Hill, who was leaning back in his chair, impatient and about to lose his temper. However, he heard the person outside the door say: "Master, I am Rudy Chester. I have something important to say."
I’ll report the situation to you.”
"Rudy?" Captain Omar Hill immediately thought of it, and she had some impression of Rudy.
A young man, a hereditary nobleman, has a close relationship with Kelly, her crony.
But why is Rudy looking for her at this time, and he still swears that there is an important situation?
Captain Omar Hill frowned, and after a moment of silence, he straightened up from the back of his chair, roused himself and shouted "Please come in."
"Report!"
With a bang, Rudy walked in and saluted, showing enough respect for Captain Omar Hill.
This made Captain Omar Hill's unhappy mood ease a little, and he said calmly: "Tell me, what important situation do you have?"
Rudy observed his words and saw that the leader of the group seemed unhappy. He knew that women of this age were the most difficult to figure out, so he did not dare to show off, so he went straight to the point: "Sir, I have someone who knows something about last night's situation.
.”
"What!" Captain Omar Hill's eyes lit up immediately. She was worried that there was no clue in the investigation, but she didn't expect Rudy to come.
Omar Hill stood up from his chair, feeling surprised and happy.
She is not worried about Rudy lying to her. She believes that Rudy is not a fool. If he dares to use this matter to fool her, she will let Rudy know the consequences.
Then Rudy explained the situation roughly, but he modified it slightly.
He only said that he found four vampires besieging a half-elf, and he observed in secret. He waited for the half-elf to escape with serious injuries, then followed up and rescued it.
Then when I asked, I found out that he was actually the person involved in the fire last night, so I hurried over to report it.
Captain Omar Hill frowned slightly, vampires and half-elves...
Since when has Glinton become so lively?
Moreover, the situation Rudy said sounded very reasonable, but it was also too coincidental, which made her instinctively suspicious.
However, Rudy didn't intend to convince Captain O'Mahill to just say it casually. Anyway, he had Judy's trump card, so Captain O'Mahill couldn't help but not believe it when the time came.
As for Judy, Rudy has already hinted that she should put the blame for arson on the vampires of the Pod family.
If Judy is smart enough, she should be able to seize this opportunity. If she is stupid and can't understand, it doesn't matter.
Anyway, there is a high probability that this matter will eventually be blamed on the Pod family.
Even if Captain Omar Hill knew that Judy set the fire and Judy himself confessed, such a big incident and such serious consequences would not be suppressed even if Judy was hanged ten times.
This is why, after much deliberation, Rudis decided to hand Judy over to the Knights.
If the Pod family is really a follower of the Son of Darkness, it is better to let the Knights take action than others who are wary of being on guard, and he can follow suit.
The whole thing went in the direction Rudy expected.
Ten minutes later, Captain Omar Hill came to Rudy's dormitory in person, avoiding the eyes and ears of others, and met Judy, who was still very weak.
Then, I listened to Judy recount what happened yesterday in person...
