Chapter 236 Assassination(2/2)

"Your Majesty, I don't know."

"There's no one else here, just talk!"

"I really don't know." Prime Minister Winston sighed: "The three princes are very smart. How could they send someone to assassinate you in public?"

"I asked you to name them! I didn't ask you to defend them!"

"."

"explain!"

"Second Prince Shukri."

Under the red eyes of Rhodes IV, Winston gritted his teeth and said: "It is too stupid to send an assassin to directly assassinate the king. The eldest prince should not be able to do it. It is only possible that someone framed the fault. Among the three princes

, the person most likely to do this is the second prince."

"Freya, what do you think?" Rhodes IV looked at Freya, whose face turned pale.

"Your Majesty, I.I."

"I know you and Shukri are close, but there is no need for you to hide anything for him. If you have any ideas, just say it."

"I don't think it was Charles and the others who did it." Freya said: "Your Majesty, haven't you always taught them to value blood relations and not to kill each other? Although they are at odds, they have not reached the point of assassinating the king. Let's talk about it again.

"

"What else?"

"Besides, Your Majesty, your health is getting worse day by day. Why did the three princes do such a treasonous act as assassination? What's more, there were church priests present at the time, so the assassination was impossible to succeed!"

Rhodes IV thought about it carefully and felt something strange. Even if he was shot in the head, the person would not die immediately. As long as the immortality field was opened in time, even if he was shot in the head, he could be saved. Unless the head was shot with a gun.

Beat it into a pulp.

The assassin only fired one shot, and the target was his chest. No matter how you thought about it, the assassination was a failure unless

"The assassin didn't know there would be a priest present!" Rhodes IV thought of a possibility: "The murderer who ordered the assassin was not from the Kingdom of Windsor! But from other countries!"

"Winston, has the murderer been caught?"

"The arrest is under way. The Witcher and Scotland Yard police are dispatched. The results will be available soon."

Winston looked at Freya: "This is a private party. The murderer can sneak into the banquet hall, either as a guest who has received the invitation, or as a family member brought by the guest, or as a servant in the villa. I suggest counting the number of people."

, look who is missing.”

"Just do it!"

Under the king's order, the police counted the number of guests against the list and found that all the guests, except Holmes who went to hunt down the prisoner, were present and had not left at all.

After eliminating the suspicion of the guests, the only targets were the villa servants. The housekeeper summoned all the servants and called them by name one by one, and finally found out.

All the servants are there, including the new coachman.

The situation suddenly became weird. If there was no more and no less, where did the murderer come from?

Could it be that the murderer swaggered in through the main entrance and pushed open the banquet hall door to carry out the assassination?

"Brother, he couldn't be a member of the Aurora Society, right?" Levin asked in a low voice, "Could it be that one of them came to assassinate the king in order to help us take over London as soon as possible?"

"Impossible." Ma Wei said categorically: "The members of the Aurora Society who came to London are all elites and will not disobey orders without authorization."

Click!

The door of the banquet hall was pushed open, and a police inspector hurriedly walked into the room and came to the king: "Your Majesty, the murderer set himself on fire!"

"What?!"

"We were about to catch the criminal, but flames suddenly burst out of his body and turned into a ball of ashes in front of us. Only the gun was left at the scene."

The police inspector took out his handkerchief and opened it. Inside was a revolver that was covered in scars. After comparing the bullet holes, he confirmed that it was the weapon used to shoot the king.
