knight legend

——Chapter 9——

There was no one guarding the dark second floor, Lite suddenly saw the red curtains being raised, and a figure passed by, Lite snapped, "Who's there?"

Finding that there was no servant guarding her, she boldly wanted to go downstairs, but the stairway door on the east side was locked. Whitburg has such a strange structure, but logically speaking, that figure ran towards the east side, why? Will it disappear?

A servant came up with a candlestick and said, "What's the matter, Miss Lite?"

"It's nothing." Lite turned and left, pushing the servant, thinking, how strange.

In the guard room, all the guards are here, but Naiden has not arrived yet.The team members who thought they were discerning planned to secretly help the vice-captain sign the attendance sheet, but Duke hurriedly stopped him: "Wait a minute!"

Gabby thought, it really should be stopped, and Duke wrote a note with a quill pen in the next moment, trying to imitate Naiden's handwriting, only to see that there was something wrong on the road, and I sincerely hope that Captain Archie Berg will let you go. Duke and I will switch tasks again——

Duke imitated it very much. He often did this job in the knight school, and he trembled unconsciously. The chattering voices of the players around him disappeared, and he felt a chill.

"Who told you to touch my stuff?"

The cold voice came from behind, and Duke's heart was full of alarm bells, thinking, what the hell, how can this kid walk so silently?Is he a knight or an assassin?

Archie Berg, who came in openly, walked too quietly. He swept past the silent guard lightly, and said displeasedly, "Since you're here, take the task list. You're dawdling, what kind of knight do you look like?"

Immediately, a row of people snatched the task list that Archie Berger put on the table, scattered like birds and beasts, and did not forget to say goodbye to the captain, because this is the rule stipulated by the captain, Duke would not dare to leave, Gabi mouthed a sentence, "Wish you Good luck to you", and the one who didn't dare to leave was the team member who helped to sign in.

The new team member was still a little hesitant and nervous. Two or three days ago, the deputy captain told him that the captain was okay, very gentle, and would not mind if he was late.

"Duke, do you have a good relationship with the vice-captain?"

Archieberger didn't say a word that didn't look like a sarcasm, like a knife thrown at him with hail, and Duke's face was covered in blood when he threw it.

Duke wiped off his sweat: "Haha, of course we and the vice-captain have a great team spirit, and you lead well."

Archieberger refused to accept this approach: "I asked you to answer, but I didn't ask you to say anything unnecessary. You just used this kind of rhetoric to perfuse your boss?"

Duke quickly admitted his mistake: "No, I said something wrong. Your lord has a lot, so don't bother with me." But he was thinking in his heart, can't he even drink wine?

It's only by family that I got to this position, and it's a good thing Naiden keeps messing around with him, and it's a good thing it's not me with him, which is boring.

"Did he not come and tell no one on the team?"

Duke was taken aback: "Didn't you... have dinner with him last night?"

Archieberg thought about Naiden's random lie for a while, of course he was not obliged to answer a small subordinate.

Only then did Duke realize that the bigger problem was the note he secretly wrote. Archieberger didn't even read it. He obviously didn't care much about Duke. As for the other team member, he was educated by him again.

After the education was over, the team members quickly took the tasks and left. Archieberg gave Duke a task list. Duke was disheartened and guessed that he was going to be sent to Whitburg. But after another look, it turned out to be an idle job in the bakery.

I thought, hey, I know, as long as it doesn't break the rules, it's fine.

Little did he know that Archieberger had recorded "disorderly behavior" for him and another team member. He just didn't bother to say it in person. If he was 15 years old and had the energy to train, he would be getting lazy now. Going out of town.

When he flipped the mission report to Naiden's column in the office, his eyes paused slightly.

He also dug out the file bag in the cabinet, and all the guards were in it. In fact, Archieberg didn't care too much except Naiden Capet's, but as long as his was a little strange, he would simply bring them all over.

Because the Grand Duke asked the mayor to take care of him, of course the mayor would listen to Archieberger's request, but he himself didn't pay much attention to the guard, so it took some time to find the files.

Naiden once told him that according to his strength, he can only do that, and there is no way to return to the team.

Archie Berger took out a thin file, and there was a line of text on it that attracted Archie Berger's attention: Member of the Fourth Reserve Team, served for one year, disappeared in the Mushroom Valley World War I, and was dying.

The attached table is a form filled out by Naiden himself, and he ticked the whole process, but he doesn't seem to have mentioned the battle of Mushroom Valley, and the injury status is also written as "none".

Looking at Naiden's appearance, it doesn't seem to be very shadowy. He even blocked himself when he was on duty. Where is the shadow left?

Archieberg also didn't understand that adding honor to the family should be something that every son of the head of the family should do, why Naiden was given a mission but didn't carry it out.actually……

There were hurried footsteps in the corridor, it seemed that someone was running over, Archieberg pressed the file bag under it, Naiden opened the door, Archieberger saw him before he could ask him why he was late His clothes were not buttoned and his uniform was hastily put on.

It's not that Archieberger hasn't run into those things.To be honest, after doing that kind of thing with Naiden, he vaguely realized that Naiden seemed to have been in contact with the romantic man long ago.

It was only then that Archieberger felt that he might regard himself as that kind of object. In his heart, he was actually the same as the man in the revealing clothes on the street at night...

He felt very uncomfortable. The more Naiden seemed to be indifferent, the more likely he was, but apart from his uncle, he hadn’t had a long friendship with anyone. It’s okay to help Naiden, but seeing him like this, Archieberg’s Imagination rarely diverges...

The bottom of his heart is also very irritable, and he rarely has the idea of ​​beating people other than "subduing gangsters" and "teaching subordinates".

Lucia found a key in a drawer, and a hair clip.

Her first reaction was to quickly close the drawer, and quickly washed her hands with water. The key looked old, and the hairpin looked familiar.

As soon as I went out, I saw the maid was mopping the floor. It turned out that someone accidentally tripped on the carpet. When changing the carpet, I found blood on the floor and strange patterns.

"Why can't it be wiped off..." the maid muttered.

When Gabi came up and saw this scene, she was shocked and said, "This is, what happened last night?"

The people on the second floor didn't pay much attention. Gabi missed how friendly Lite and Lucia were when Naiden was around. Unfortunately, one was too small and the other was too big, so he wasn't interested.

Mr. Pike of the Aize family said: "Did you hear the crying last night? It was probably at twelve o'clock."

Naiden convinced Gabi, last night he said he didn't believe in ghosts, but this morning he immediately believed it, and asked him how he knew.

"Uh..." Naiden didn't know where to start, how could he believe in ghosts, at most he read "The Prince's Revenge", which is still a banned book in Susuli country, and everyone in Susuli believes in Goddess Cult.

It is the goddess who created the world, and the goddess confronted the dragon a long time ago, and finally died together.

Susuli has a unified religion, and everyone is a devout believer.Now that I believe in a goddess, there is only this one goddess. It is absolutely impossible for a ghost to come out, because everyone lives well. Ghosts are resentful spirits in Susuli, and resentful spirits are the product of poor protection of the goddess, but how can the goddess Maybe they can't protect people well.

Naiden thought to himself, if he said "ghost" and "ghost" again, it would be bad for people to hear. Gabi is a commoner, so the influence is small. He said that he knew there was a ghost a long time ago, that is to say, he questioned the goddess. The spokesperson is the royal saint, questioning the saint is questioning the royal family, so what should I do?

Naiden frowned and said, "Let's change the word, just say, beauty."

"It's so heavy." Gabi was disgusted.Naiden smiled: "I was just joking with you."

"Don't be funny, how could you make fun of such a sacred thing, didn't you teach me? There are ghosts in this world, and I thought you were joking at first..."

Naiden grabbed Gabby's neck and said, "Haha, isn't Cher okay?"

Gabi's face changed immediately, Xue'er was a woman he had played with, but she was pregnant, and he didn't want to admit the identity of that child.

But in Susuli, how could it be possible for an unmarried child to become pregnant, but it is said that the vice-captain will always help...

"Tell me about ghosts and ghosts again, I'll never end with you." Naiden said in a low voice, but his face was still smiling, and Gabby's body was shaking.

Most of the knights in the guard are not good, and that’s okay. Everyone thinks that knights are extremely noble, but every profession will produce garbage, so Naiden is just playing with them on the surface.

But there is always a price to be paid for establishing the image of a big brother, which is to help take care of this kind of thing. He couldn't stand Duke and couldn't bear Gabi, and just happened to be in a bad mood, so he hit the gun again.

Pretentiousness is the truth that Naiden learned when he was young, and he didn't have a very happy life in school. Kindness will be bullied in various ways, and righteousness can't be too much.

But Naiden didn't tell Gabi that Xue'er is not a good guy, she often makes a young knight like Gabi responsible for her pregnancy, thanks to the fact that the previous captain of the guard was even dirtier, and he had to deal with more things. many.

Gabi fell silent, and Naiden said, "Okay, how about the Ninth Prince?"

"He... seems to have looked for someone, maybe he came to look for you." Gabi changed his mood, touched his neck, and his back was soaked in cold sweat.

The guests of the banquet gradually entered the venue. They looked down from the second floor. Lite complained that the hairpin was missing. Seeing that Lucia had left, she quickly lifted the hem of her skirt to follow.The maid came up with a better carpet and went away again.

The banquet is open on the first floor, and the second floor is the guest room. Naiden has no interest in caring about ghosts or not. It was a bet he made with Gabi when he was bored. Withdrawn.

Turning his gaze to the carpet, Naiden said, "I'm asking you, Gabby, is this what you call blood that can't be wiped off?"

Gabi was a little hesitant after being frightened by that, and he couldn't speak fluently: "Yes... Actually, I think it's just that the castle is older..."

Naiden: "Ah, yes, maybe it's just that the wind blows after a long time, and others think it's crying."

Nassar came over and said Naiden hadn't made the schedule yet.

It seems that only Naiden can organize work like Archie Berger. Archie Berger came here according to the regulations. Naiden did not ask for leave, so he would not find someone else to replace Naiden.

Naiden took Nassar's pen and said with a smile: "Thanks for your hard work." Worried about the schedule, he wanted to get to know the Grand Duke as much as possible...

Archieberg never mentioned family or anything like that, which surprised Naiden.Since we are going to the Cyan and Gray Knights outside the city——

The Dragon Knights should have a reputation at the banquet no matter what, but Archieberg seems to have been hidden for a long time.

Moreover, the initiator of the Whitburg banquet is the head of the Ryder family, so it stands to reason that the Te family, the Aize family, the Ryder family, etc. will send people. Every banquet is a good time for boys and girls to show up, Archie Berg It's true if you don't come...

Naiden accidentally glanced at the window, and suddenly saw a familiar carriage.
