Release that Witch Chapter 31: Friends of “us”


Roland sat at his desk in a daze. He didn't expect that someone would dare to kill him in the castle. If it wasn't for Nightingale's timely discovery, he would have been killed by a poisoner.

Who is this time again? Third Royal Sister, or other siblings? Shouldn't you be so anxious, struggle for the throne for five years, only a few months now, Roland patted the table fretfully, is there such a reason, can you let yourself spend the winter well?

Sounds of footsteps sounded outside the door, Chief Knight Carter Lannis pushed in, "His Royal Highness, the identity of the deceased has been ascertained. Seven of the eight bodies were members of the original patrol. One was unknown. The other two were alive. One was treated by witch ... No, after being treated by Miss Pine, she still hasn't woke up. One has been put into a dungeon and is being closely guarded.

The patrol? I know that this team raised by the former feudal lord can't be trusted. Roland gritted his teeth and thought that there were actually eight rebellions in ten people, and it was really the right choice for them not to let the joining militia team.

"The one who is locked up, you remind your men to keep an eye on them, don't let people take drugs and commit suicide like last time!"

"Last ... that?"

"Cough, it's nothing," Roland shook his head. It seemed that he was called by Nightingale in the early morning, and even his head was confused. "In short, I want to know everything from his mouth, who is the master, who contacts, and who buys it. Leave it to you to check. "

"Yes, Your Highness," Carter did not leave immediately after speaking, but kneeling on one knee, "It is my fault to let the Assassin sneak into the castle this time, and His Royal Highness will be punished."

"Enough. You were not in the castle at the time. It has nothing to do with you."

"So ..." Carter hesitated, "Can you tell me, who was the one who stopped the assassination at the time? I saw from the scene that they ..." Knight swallowed, "They all seem to be Was killed by the same person and there was no way to fight back. "

"You can see it all?" Roland curiously.

"If the match is close, the scene will not be so clean, and the wounds will be various," Carter whispered. "Everyone will fall in a small warehouse, except for blood and corpses on the ground. Destroyed a placed object, the big boxes storing bacon, leaving no marks on it. In other words, the man walked in a small open space without any cover. IMHO. , Your Highness, this is incredible. "

"So that's it," Roland nodded, he understood the meaning of the other party. In theory, no matter how strong people are surrounded, they will fall into an extremely unfavorable situation. -- will not appear to be surrounded by people as they are in the movie. Attacks that are in a blind spot will be especially deadly. So with one-to-many, the correct countermeasure is to rely on the terrain and environment, so that you always face the enemy.

However, Nightingale is not an ordinary person.

"No matter what, you should do what you should do first. This person can't show up yet, I will tell you when the time is ripe."

Although Chief Knight is faithful to itself and knows that Anna and Nana are witch, Roland still chooses to conceal the existence of Nightingale. Because she is different from the other two witch, she does not belong to her side. The reason for staying at small town is only for Anna. Behind her is Witch Cooperation Association, and sooner or later she will leave here.

Carter retreated with a loss of face.

Roland understands his thoughts. As a sword holder, he continuously practices the Swordsmanship, which is summarized and accumulated over hundreds of years, and takes it as the truth. But when you see an incomprehensible scene, you will doubt yourselves. -- If Swordsmanship can be so delicate, what do you take pride in?

"I thought you would call me out," Nightingale showed her figure, and she was still sitting at the corner of her desk with her legs tilted.

"I think so. Or you just settle down here as my dark guard, two gold royal per month, double the salary of Anna, do you want to consider it?" Roland started again Amway "The house has a garden and is closed for two days a week. Every year, there is paid leave --, uh, it means to pay while resting."

To his surprise, this time the other party did not refuse flatly, but smiled, saying "I can't leave my partner alone."

"Come over here, and after the winter, Border Town will be built, so many people can tolerate it. And ... witch can walk on the street without discrimination, no one will look at you evil. "

"Wait until you do that," Nightingale said with a shrug.

Okay, Amway has to look at the product. This kind of thing can only be taken slowly. Roland changed the topic, "Nana has been returned safely?"

"Yeah, hum, she's scared."

The Prince sighed. It was midnight when he was woken up by Nightingale. He almost did not spit out when he saw the scene. She briefly explained what happened, and Roland instructed her to take Nana out secretly. Usually, the little girl who had been healed by chickens saw a living man covered with blood, and immediately passed out. In short, after the chicken flying dog jumped, she cured her patrol Captain with tears in her face.

In order not to let his family notice, Nightingale is also responsible for taking her back.

When everything is busy, it's almost dawn.

"What do you think about this? Can you guess which of my good brother or sister did it?"

Nightingale shook his head. "They are all members of the patrol. The only exception is that they do not carry any identity-related evidence. If it is a purchase, anyone can do it ... but I think, This matter may have nothing to do with your siblings. "

"Why?"

"Because it's too rigorous. There was an internal strife in the team at the same time. After the defeat, they did not commit suicide immediately, leaving at least two live. At the time, their performance was unprofessional, and they were just confused with the street Generally. This is not like the style of your brothers and sisters, but more like a layman's plan. I think even if I am not there, there is no possibility that this assassination will be successful ... don't forget that Anna will sleep in your downstairs. "

Nightingale lifted the cup of Roland and drank indifferently, then said, "Anyway, your Knight has gone to the dungeon to ask for a confession. I bet he will soon get the truth -- compared to what your sister clothed. Chess, that guy is too inferior, before kneeling and begging me not to kill him. "

"The seriously injured patrol Captain ... I seem to have called it."

"Really?" Nightingale tilted his head. "I think you have to thank him very much. If it wasn't for the other guy entangled with other guys, I wouldn't find the basement slip into Mouse so quickly. Although not big You know why he did it, but the enemy's enemy is our friend, right? "

Yes, Roland thought, but the point is not whether he is a friend or an enemy, but the sentence that Nightingale said.

-- "us" friends.
