Days and nights of women's clothing in front of the Duke

fiancée.

Andy raised his eyebrows, and glanced at the duke who was sitting upright with the end of his eyes.

He fantasizes about the real Oliver and the Duke getting married.

Passing through the twelve pillars, in front of the goddess, under the soft moonlight, the bride in blood and the cold and unpredictable Austin walked hand in hand with expressionless faces, generous as if going to death, and silent as a lamb.

The wedding ceremony should be to kill a hundred wicked people to sacrifice to heaven.

Andy didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a while, he shook his head secretly, lowered the corners of his mouth wisely, and kept silent, so as not to entangle the Duke on this issue.

The carriage stopped at the Red Knight Hall in Themis. In order to protect the fire of civilization, Themis banned weapons, so there were no knights in armor standing guard in the Red Knight Hall.

Different from the sleek and elegant white building of Themis, the guild hall maintains the simple and heavy style of the Dragon Age.

Gray stone walls, pointed roofs, narrow and tall windows, the real dragon wind has special requirements on the texture of the windows, and the sunlight will reflect golden light, like a squinted dragon's vertical eyes.

Andy stopped and watched for a while. He was wearing a straw-colored gauze hat, covering his deep facial features. The corners of his rose-colored lips were drawn slightly, as if he was making fun of something.

The Duke stepped out of the carriage, stretched out his right arm, and coughed softly with his left hand.

Andy didn't refuse, and stretched out his arms: "What role will I play next, your fiancée, and what can I do to help you? Reject the noble lady who shows love madly for you? Their love for you is comparable to yours. Wealth, I'm afraid I'll be riddled with holes."

The Duke didn't pause at all: "My favorite is your armor."

Andy: "..."

Today is still an ordinary day. Old Charles is sitting in the study, drinking the fragrant Suoye tea, while reading the latest news from Themis Briefing, chewing candy, oh, this is the end of the Free City. Order well, the desserts are cheap, and there are more ways to entertain than Isa.

He scanned the text ten lines at a time, and jumped to an ironic illustration, with a smile on his lips.

"grown ups."

Someone knocked on the door.

"Come in, what's the matter?"

Old Charles hid the sugar bowl in a drawer. The clerk in charge of reception opened the door. He was afraid of disturbing the consul's reading time, but the name of the visiting guest was too big for the clerk to hide.

"The Duke and a lady from Ye Yuhai are outside."

Wild Yuhai?Phelps?Old Charles was almost stuck in the unswallowed candy, he immediately stood up and prepared to go out to receive.

"My lord, your clothes." The clerk reminded in fear.

Old Charles patted his bald forehead, looked around, found the tie, and put on his coat again.

"What is the duke sitting here for? Well, with a lady, who are they going to sue? Who did something wrong? Did they quarrel with someone or was there a dispute over seating? Or what happened to that lady? My God , What's the use of shaking your head, don't you ask anything clearly?"

The clerk adjusted the collar of old Charles: "No, my lord, they are here to find someone."

"Looking for someone? Who? A nobleman is missing!?"

The clerk said helplessly: "Listen to me, the Duke is here to find a humanoid, the one we caught yesterday, the humanoid who murdered the priest of Simon."

Old Charles looked in the mirror to make sure there was no impoliteness. He put on his hat, walked out of the study with the clerk, and went down the stairs. coconut tea.

Old Charles had met the Duke a few times, and he was deeply impressed by him. He was a gloomy and indifferent young nobleman with conservative ideas and hostility towards His Majesty the King and princes. Such people often did not live long.

He thought sarcastically, and then squinted his eyes. Sitting next to the Duke was a young and beautiful lady, who looked very similar to the recently rumored sea-buckthorn rose, with brown hair, black eyes, and deep and charming facial features. Well, according to him 20 Judging from years of experience, this lady is probably a superb social butterfly.

Look, even the duke served him coconut tea.

It seems that the rumors are true. The short-lived duke who regards women as dung is just beginning to fall in love, and his partner doesn't seem well-behaved at all.

Old Charles's smile remained unchanged, he walked down the stairs with a smile all over his face: "Master Phelps, I am very happy to have you here, even though my place is not a good place, who would refuse a noble and powerful man?" What about the youth?"

The Duke nodded, his green eyes were gloomy and indifferent: "Long time no see, Charles."

"Who is this beautiful lady?"

Old Charles turned his eyes to the idle Seabuckthorn Rose, who raised his eyebrows at him while holding Suoye tea, his black eyes were mysterious and deep, like a witch who would make people fall.

Old Charles' heart skipped a beat, and he immediately shifted his gaze.

This woman is not simple. Sure enough, the richest and most hated duke who can seduce Isa is not an ordinary lady.

Sea buckthorn rose, well-deserved reputation.

"I came to you because of this lady. She wants to know something." The duke introduced the two to each other: "Miss Oliver, this is the old Viscount Charles. Because of his ignorance, the family's territory was mortgaged 30 years ago. , had to go to Themis as a consul, without any real power, please don’t be afraid.”

Old Charles' heart trembled violently. He twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, smiled at the slightly surprised Seabuckthorn Rose, and politely kissed her ring: "It's an honor to meet you, beautiful lady."

A short-lived duke, why not compare who lives longer.

It was the first time Andy saw Austin's expression and tone, and he couldn't believe it. He looked at the young man with an indifferent face, but every sentence poked at the pain.

Consul Charles' face could hardly be tensed.

Is this a vendetta?

Andy kept his expression on his face, and asked directly: "Mr. Charles, I saw a murder case from the briefing and would like to know the details."

Old Consul Charles wiped the sweat from his brow and showed a businesslike and polite smile. Hearing about this matter, there were more than one or two noblemen who came to the Red Knight to ask questions, and he had already prepared a draft.

"Of course, I'm happy to tell you that this will make you more vigilant against people with ulterior motives. I don't think you have heard of such a horrific evil, murdering a priest, I hope the gods will smash his soul into pieces, like People never learn to obey the law."

He bent down and sat on the chair next to him, and the clerk brought him Suoye tea. Old Charles couldn't wait to take a sip: "You know, he has been accused of more than one crime, besides murdering nobles, the more serious is He actually used a dagger to hurt people in Themis, which is no less evil than praising the Father God in the Goddess Temple, so in addition to Isa's Red Knights, the law enforcement team of Themis is also involved in this case."

Andy frowned: "Can you tell me some more details?"

Old Charles continued: "Of course, what do you want to know, I will tell you frankly, a maid passed by the garden and saw Priest Simon who suddenly fell to the ground, she thought something happened, and kindly stepped forward to check. "

"Poor girl, she was terribly frightened. The humanoid was holding a knife in his hand, and fell to the ground with a hideous face. The priest, oh, he didn't say a word. When the girl reported the case, our People checked carefully and found that he had died long ago, and the knife was still in that demon's hand."

"He pretended he didn't know anything, and asked us what happened. You said it was scary or not, funny or not."

Old Charles laughed out loud, but Seabuckthorn Rose didn't mean to be taken aback. The eyes under the veil were like ripe black raspberries, sweet and relishing, and people couldn't help peeping over and over again.

"Is this a crime?"

"Of course, we won't let any villain go, ma'am, please believe in the strictness of the Red Knight, we won't make fun of human life."

"Okay, what's next?"

Old Charles sighed: "Goddess, we can only hang him with a rope, the devil can't reach the kingdom of God."

He paid close attention to her reaction, wanting to see the emotions displayed by noble ladies who heard such stories in the past, excitement, fear, contempt, or sympathy, pity, those black eyes narrowed slightly, and the rose-colored lips seemed like made fun of, and then he actually laughed out loud.

"I have an interesting idea. If I want to get rid of someone in Themis, such as the Duke, I will invite him to my room in the middle of the night, strangle him, and then transport him back in the dark. own room, the next day, if the maid finds the Duke’s body, she will report to the police.”

She hoarsed her voice on purpose to make her voice low: "Then the clever detective will decide, hey, we have to kill these servants, and look, they tie the Duke's cravat so tight that he feels sick when he sleeps at night." Suffocate, even pay for it with your life."

"Look at this terrible strangle mark, that's the proof!"

Old Charles was silent for a while, and said with a half smile: "Well, this is not a clever crime. With all due respect, ma'am, this story has a lot of loopholes."

Seabuckthorn Rose opened the folding fan and shook it, and said with a smile: "My story doesn't need any ingenious and rigorous logic, all it needs is a stupid detective."

Old Charles: "..." I now believe that you are the lover of the short-lived duke.

The Duke, who had been silent all this time, was still silent, but there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, very faint.

Andy stood up: "Can I meet that humanoid?"

Old Charles turned pale: "I'm afraid not, you know, we are a legal organization, and the majesty of the Red Knights cannot be challenged."

Andy looked at the silent Austin, who frowned in displeasure. It was rumored that he hated humanoids very much. Andy vaguely understood the reason, and was planning to communicate with old Charles again.

The Duke raised his index finger and tapped on the edge of the table: "I want to see that humanoid."

"Okay, my lord, I will lead the way for you."

Andy twitched the corner of his mouth, this damn class.
