Dominate the world in three weeks?
Chapter 79 Chapter 79
The next day, when Terrence woke up, it was already clear outside the window.
He seemed to have slept for a long time, and his mind was a little dizzy.When Adam pushed open the door, he happened to see him struggling to sit up.
"Please be careful!" Adam hurried over and lifted Terrence's shoulders.
Terrence leaned on the soft cushion and looked at the door strangely: "Why didn't Lancer come?"
Since entering school, probably due to the habit, the task of getting dressed in the morning was also taken over by the blond knight.Therefore, Terrence couldn't help but have doubts when he didn't see Lancer early this morning.
The blond knight looked unreconciled last night, and Terrence was prepared to see him when he opened his eyes.
Adam frowned, he is not a person who is good at gossiping, but he was concerned that Terrence might give trust to someone who should not be indulged because of ignorance of the facts, he paused and said: "I have noticed it before, young master, you You are too indulgent to your subordinates. You are in a high position, and you shouldn't be so gentle. But considering your miserable life experience, I don't want to make more regulations on this matter. After all, you also have your own principles of life, and I hope You can be closer to others."
"But you pointed it out now." Terrence clasped his hands on his stomach.Adam doesn't make useless opening remarks for no reason, so he relaxes and waits for the butler's next subject.
"Because when you trust others, you ignore whether the other party is worthy of your trust."
"If I'm not mistaken, this 'someone else' does refer to something."
"Perhaps I seem to you to be provocative. But I must say that Rancer Schevenlieu may not have the right mind."
Terrence's eyes widened, he froze for a second, then laughed.
"You think I'm joking?" Adam frowned.If it was said that Terrence glared, Adam could understand it, but the other party's reaction now made him feel troublesome.The angry expression shows that Terrence still has reservations about Lancer, so he is unhappy because he stepped on the hidden sense of crisis in his heart.But if the other party took Adam's remarks as a joke, then Lancer's position in Terrence's heart might no longer be shaken.
Terrence put away his smile and shook his head: "Thank you for your advice, Adam. But I don't think I need to doubt Lancer's loyalty yet."
When these words came out, even Terrence himself was surprised.
Once upon a time, he was wary of the blond knight.When everyone believed that Lancer Chevanlieu was the hero who saved the Duke of Aldret, Terrence had to worry day and night that the other party would betray him and throw him into the camp of the mortal enemy.
But time goes by, and nothing can witness a person's sincerity better than time.The blond knight was always following behind him, and Terrence gradually separated him from the enemy who drew his sword in the previous two lives into two completely different individuals - no one knows better than him, and different experiences can shape different people .
"He's just a single-minded knight." Terrence shrugged—to protect the person he wanted to protect.
The corners of Adam's mouth drooped in disapproval. He told everything that happened last night in order to persuade the little master to rein in the precipice.
Terrence was indeed silent. He thought for a while, but smiled: "I accept your advice, Adam. But you don't have to be so hostile to Lancer. If he is really against me, he will show his feet one day , why don't you take a good look at him? The truth doesn't always hide behind a veil."
He couldn't explain that Lancer's actions were based on protecting himself, so he had to persuade the loyal housekeeper first.But in any case, Lanser's behavior made Terrence let go of his last worries. Because of the core of light magic on his chest, Terrence suspected that the other party was involved with the church, which also made Terrence Lance has been taking pains to observe the other party's attitude after the church entered the empire.But now it seems that there is no need to worry about even this concern.
This made Terrence feel relieved—no matter what Lanser's identity is, when people are struggling to explore the unknown, keeping the mystery is life.
Terrence felt that he could put this courage on the blond knight.
The conversation between the two of them about Lancer had just come to an end when a maid knocked on the door and came in.The girl raised her skirt and saluted: "Master, the adults from the Public Security Bureau are here to visit, and they are in the living room at this time."
"Looks like what happened yesterday hasn't been resolved yet." Terrence looked at Adam and signaled Adam to change his pajamas for him.
When Terrence was fully dressed and went out, he finally saw the knight standing against the wall.The other party was meticulous, and he didn't look like he just came out. Terrence glanced at Adam, and the butler straightened his back, turning a blind eye to Lancer.
This made Terrence feel embarrassed towards Lancer, and he stretched out his hand to the blond knight: "I have something to go downstairs, you want to follow - or continue to stand here?"
Lancer raised his head, he looked at Terrence's palm, his eyes stopped for a while on the gauze-covered wrist, and he walked behind Terrence silently.
Terrence slightly gathered his five fingers, and then lowered his arms—in the past, the blond knight was always not stingy with physical contact, but today it was so abnormal that it made Terrence worry and also felt weird.
But the guests were waiting downstairs, Terrence put aside his inappropriate thoughts and walked towards the stairs.
Ulea rushed over the moment Terrence appeared in the living room. He was extremely worried, but because everyone advised him that Terrence needed to rest, he endured the uneasiness and honestly did not bother him.Before Terrence reached out to catch him, two hands behind him stopped Uriah's careless move.The people who intercepted were Lancer and Adam. The butler glanced at Lancer and didn't embarrass him at this time.
Terrence rubbed Uriah's braided long hair habitually.
"T...you, are you okay?" The boy gradually learned how to speak, but because he was always reluctant to speak, he could only spit out simple phrases.However, Terrence always suspected that the bigger reason was that Uriah had been with Lu Sien for too long.
He whispered a few words of comfort, walked to the sofa in the hall, and Aaron Xiao immediately stood up and saluted Terrence according to etiquette.The other party strictly abided by the social norms—just as he could ignore Terrence's request without fear in the Public Security Bureau, and he did not forget to respect the dignity of a duke when he arrived at the duke's mansion.
"I came here today to ask you something. I'm ashamed to say that we haven't caught the gangster who took you away."
Terrence had already guessed, he motioned for the other party to sit down, and told the others to disperse.
"Forgive me for worrying about your health, please allow me to stay." Adam objected tactfully.
In the end, only Adam and Lancer, who was silent but motionless, remained.
"If you don't mind, I think if you have anything to ask, you can start now." Terrence motioned to him for the existence of the other two.
"The pavilion is not in good health. I won't ask for more. That's why I came to visit." Aaron nodded.
"Your enlightenment really surprises me." Terrence raised his eyebrows, but he was telling the truth.It is estimated that what happened last night made the chief of security feel flustered, so he gave up his usual ruthless approach. "Before I do anything for you, maybe you could tell me what happened after last night, if you could?"
Aaron pondered for a while, as if he was thinking about whether there was anything he should not say, and then he said: "If you are interested. After we found you with Mr. Schevenlieu last night, we found you in a nearby residence. The cause of death was the same as that of the previous two. The family members of the unfortunate girl went to comfort the relatives who had just finished the funeral. It is said that she did not want to go, but stayed at home alone, and died alone. Collapsed alone at the door of the living room."
"Actually—you know that girl." Lancer finally broke his silence and added.Terrence motioned him to continue.
"The girl who spoke to us at the funeral yesterday afternoon, she is the new dead, and this time the body is not complete."
"How to say?"
Aaron interface: "The heart of the deceased was dug out."
"It shouldn't be surprising. The murderer is by her side. Of course, she has time to do other perverted things."
"It seems that you also think that these deaths are extremely bad homicides." Aaron's eyes lit up.He was worried about this strange case. Compared with facing an invisible and intangible disease, he was relieved by the malice from human beings.The series of events yesterday made him feel something, and he came to see Terrence today to confirm his thoughts.
"However, how did the murderer kill in full view?"
Terrence lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then asked Aaron, "Is the float where the first girl died still in your hands?"
Aaron shook his head: "Yesterday, the owner of the troupe came to ask for it. Since he didn't find anything, he has already asked him to take it away."
"Then let's put this matter aside for now—you just said that the dead person fell in front of the living room door just now?"
"Yes."
"Is she fully dressed and going out?"
"Indeed."
"I heard that because of what happened in the past two days, people in civilian areas try to avoid going out, especially girls. The family members don't want young girls to go out alone at night to avoid catching terrible diseases from strange places." Terrence Rubbing his forehead, he said slowly.
"What you said is the truth." Aaron didn't hide anything, he affirmed Terrence's words and showed interest.Because Terrence quickly grasped the important point of what he just said, the sharpness of the other party made Aaron's tense jaw relax.
"A young girl dares to go out despite the danger at such a time... Is there anything else that can give her such courage besides the person she likes?" Terrence said affirmatively. He looked at the knight behind him, "I remember that young lady said that the second deceased also had a mysterious lover."
"Actually, the family of the deceased last night didn't know that the girl had friends outside the ordinary relationship."
Terrence blinked: "Look, a mysterious boyfriend, at least there are other similarities between these two girls besides gender. Then you should look up the love history of the first deceased Mary, the sheriff gentlemen."
"You shouldn't doubt our integrity, Your Excellency. This is what we investigated in the first wave."
"So what's the result?"
Aaron was a little hesitant. He was silent for a while and said, "She also doesn't have a friend who can be called a romantic partner. But there are rumors in the troupe that she likes her boss."
"The troupe master?" Terrence asked back. "That sounds really familiar. Because there are people who also have a crush on this gentleman, it seems that he is really attractive-yes, I'm talking about the girl who died yesterday."
Aaron said: "You already know what you want to know, Your Excellency the Duke? Now, it's time for you to answer my question." He only realized now that Terrence led him away because the discussion was too serious.
"Of course." Terrence nodded, "You want to ask me who is holding me hostage? Is he the murderer?"
Aaron took a deep breath and nodded.
"She did admit that she was involved in the murder. But I don't know the identity of the other party. I only know that she is short and a woman."
"Woman?!" Aaron asked in surprise.He didn't say it, and the second deceased was also closely related to Bridges' troupe chief, and he had already targeted this man.
"Do you think the murderer is a man?" Terrence glanced at Aaron, "Maybe you have other guesses, which I don't know. But I was so close to that person at the time, it was impossible not to tell her gender .”
He had put the man in black under him.
Aaron frowned: "Then do you know any other details that can be used to identify the murderer?"
Terrence clasped his hands and supported his chin. He stared at Aaron Xiao for a long time, and finally let go: "A circular pattern."
"what?"
"There is a circular pattern on the inside of her arm - well, I'll just say it, it's a magic circle that isolates the elements - you know that some mages who have committed crimes or want to hide their identities often have such a thing, That can make mages who are sensitive to the elements ignore their identities."
Ranser interrupted suddenly, "I guess I've seen someone like that before."

He seemed to have slept for a long time, and his mind was a little dizzy.When Adam pushed open the door, he happened to see him struggling to sit up.
