Chapter 23 This is different from what we said!
"Stop sighing, let's go." Looking at the extremely familiar city wall in front of you, Trandon's expression was a little complicated, and he let out a sigh of relief.
"Oh, OK, Master."
"Yes, Master."
After these days of getting along, Trandon has completely turned Benson and Martin into his own clusters, obeying his words and fully demonstrating the quality that a truly awesome nobleman should have.
“Humans are really interesting.”
The Seven Sins next to him muttered in a low voice.
This demon is a typical bullying of the weak and fearing the strong. He basically doesn't respect his master much, but he is very respectful to Su Mo and Arno, two "same" who can hang him up and beat him up.
Fortunately, Martin has been suffering since he was a child and has never lived a life as a young master. The extra demon who signed a contract is like a thug, not a butler.
I never thought about asking Qisin to help me, let alone take care of her.
Benson understands this a little bit, and sometimes orders Arnold to help him do something. Arnold also completes it meticulously.
The three demons, Arnold, who looks like a qualified butler, looks the most like a qualified butler.
"Young Master, why are we going here?"
Seeing that Trandon took the lead but did not rush towards the city gate, but instead adjusted the direction a little, Martin couldn't help but ask.
"Next time I have the chance, let you see the city gate and this wall up close." Trandon said.
The City of Thorns is not a closed city, or the wall that was originally used as a defense has long been demolished with the expansion of the City of Thorns.
The city gates and walls that Martin and others saw now are one of the symbols of the Thorn City, but they are not the only entrance.
From other places, you can also enter the Thorn City, which is more convenient, at least you don’t have to move slowly with the flow of people here.
The three carriages left the main avenue and chose another road. Together with other pedestrians and horses, they merged into the sea like a small drop of water, and entered the city of thorns.
There was no turmoil.
Until...Trandon and the others came outside the manor of the Wobs family in the City of Thorns.
The sky has dimmed, the sun has set, and only a little afterglow has spread from the other side of the mountain into the city of thorns, which is not as bright as the lights in the city.
The streets outside Wabus Manor were very quiet and there were not so many bright lights. The entire manor was gradually shrouded in the darkness, making it look a bit gloomy and quiet.
"I'm back."
Looking at the manor in front of him, Trandon whispered and ordered, "Sebas, help me open the door."
The iron door outside the manor was closed tightly, and Trandon had no key to open the locked door. Naturally, this kind of thing had to be handed over to his unqualified butler.
Although he was unqualified, Su Mo could not disappoint Trandon in such a thing.
With the creaking sounds, the slightly heavy iron door slowly opened. The flat road leading to the back of the garden, which was as gorgeous as a small castle, also appeared in front of Trandon and the others, unobstructed.
"Young Master."
Without making a carriage, Tranton was just about to make a big stride back to his home, but Su Mo called him to death.
"What?" Trandon turned his head.
"Did you notice something is wrong?" Su Mo said.
"What's wrong?" Trandon was stunned for a moment, frowned, "What are you referring to?"
Su Mo didn't say anything, but just reached his hand in front of Trandon and stretched out two fingers. The white gloves had a small trace of rust at the position of the fingertips.
Nothing like Arnold and other demons who bring their own clothes, Su Mo naturally needs to change into suitable clothes when he comes to this world.
Now he is wearing a black dress, which is simpler and cleaner than the butler's tuxedo in this world. In terms of style, he is somewhat similar to the suits on earth.
Of course, the details are more and more beautiful.
On his hands, he was wearing a pair of white gloves. On the one hand, he was following the crowd, and on the other hand, he was to cover the contract mark on the back of his hand.
Similarly, Trandon also brought an eye mask to cover the not-obvious contract mark in his eyes - it looked more similar to Charles.
Now Trandon looks at the traces on Su Mo's gloves with another uncovered eye.
"Mr. Welber was driven out of the capital more than a month ago. Before he left, your uncles and elders had been living in the manor." Su Mo said calmly, "It seems that this is not the case now."
Trandon turned his head and looked at the manor he had lived in for many years again, and his heart felt a little uneasy.
His demon steward said it well, it was abnormal!
The manor in front of you is abnormal!
Even the streets outside the manor are not normal!
Quiet, too quiet - so quiet that there are only a few lights on the roadside emitting lights, and others... no one else, and even those shops on the street are closed with their doors closed.
The Warbus Manor is located in the upper aristocratic area of the city of thorns, but the aristocrats do not mean that they are far away from the hustle and bustle. Compared to other places, it is very quiet, but there are still facilities that should be found, such as some cafes and opera houses.
At night, such a place will not become quieter because of the arrival of night, but will become more lively.
But now, the door of the cafe on the street outside the manor is closed tightly - like other nearby stores.
And the houses in the manor - to be precise, there is no bright light in the entire Wobus Manor. Although the sky has not completely darkened, it has reached the point where it should be lighted.
I dare not say anything else, in terms of enjoying this, the nobles definitely do not belong to anyone. The night falls but the lights are not lit, which does not fit the nobles' style.
If they could accept the darkness so willingly and fall asleep early, it would be better to stay away from the imperial capital and find a countryside corner. At night, those places will be quieter and fresher than the imperial capital.
"It's not just that there is no one in the manor, there is no one living nearby." Trandon's brow frowned into the word "chuan".
He had imagined that when he came back, he would encounter difficulties from his elders or other more vicious means.
But Trandon didn't care. He was absolutely safe with a powerful demon steward. In addition, he was legitimate and righteous, he regained the position of head of the Wobus family and controlled the Wobus family in his hands. It was just a matter of time.
Moreover, that time will not be too long.
For these, Trandon had already made plans and preparations.
But Trandon did not expect that when he came back, he would not face the means of the elders, but a manor that had lost its popularity and became like a haunted house.
After much calculation, Trandon did not expect such a situation.
What about the promised scene of regaining the property from those stupid subpoenas? Why does the manor look like a haunted house that is not living in? This is different from the promised one!
"Go and check, what happened." Su Mo said to Mrs. Lis, and looked at Qisin again, "Follow us and tell us the situation as soon as possible."
Mrs. Lis nodded, and the Seven Sins next to her separated and followed her.
The combat power of the Seven Sins is not strong, but it has a relatively large effect. The seven bodies that can be divided and fused at any time are a super advanced communicator for Su Mo.
Trandon and others did not have such a concept. Su Mo, who came from the earth, naturally played the role of the Seven Sins to the fullest.
Two demons, one super thug and the other super communicator, Su Mo was quite satisfied with such a combination.
As time passed slowly, Qisin next to him suddenly spoke, "The manor was no longer inhabited twenty days ago."
"Why?" asked Trandon.
"Still asking," said Seven Sin, pausing for a little while, "because the Wabus family members died in the manor."
"What did you say?" Trandon widened his eyes, "How many people from the Wabus family died in the manor."
A strange look of smile appeared on Qisin's face, and he slowly spoke, "All people, Master Trandon, you don't have to worry about anyone stopping you from taking the position of head of the family. Because all the "Wobs" have died, in just three days, on the night twenty-three days ago, one after another... it was like a curse, just like a plague spreading."
"Now, you are the only one left in the Warbus family, Master Trandon."
Trandon's mouth was slightly open, and the expression on his face was a little dull and stiff.
All the people in the Warbus family died?
The Wobus family is not a big family with a prosperous population, but those who are in a mess and have some ability to seize the family's head's side branches, there are still twenty or thirty people.
These people actually died one after another in the manor within three days?
Trandon looked at Su Mo. If it weren't for the demon steward who had been following him all the time, he would have doubted whether the family had come to the City of Thorns to help him clear the obstacles - using quite bloody means.
"How did they die? What is the cause of death? And why the streets outside are so quiet." Trandon raised a series of questions.
"Don't worry, the most in the tavern is some people who think they know everything." said Seven Sin confidently.
It seems that he and Mrs. Lis should be inquiring about news in a tavern. It should be the easiest place to ask for news in such a place.
But soon, the confident expression on Qisin's face disappeared, and he said with a hint of strangeness: "Master Trandon, it seems that I am going to disappoint you. No one knows how they died..."
"The cause of death is unknown, there are no wounds on his body. Uh--I heard that the coroner had confirmed that he was not poisoned to death after the autopsy."
"So..." Trandon said.
