"Sir," looking at Leo's serious face, Bella and Brown also looked at each other and smiled bitterly. The current situation is quite serious. Looking at the difficult events since the establishment of the Patrollers, I am afraid they can be ranked in the top three.

To put it lightly, there are some problems in the queen's family. To put it more seriously, the incident accidentally escalated and the queen committed treason.

hiss……

Thinking about this scene is a bit scary.

"There's still something wrong," Leo frowned, looked at the file in his hand, and rubbed his temples slightly. He really didn't know how to start.

Wait... is this?

But then, Leo's eyes glanced at the rows of news, ignoring a series of news such as "Flooding in Lar Village, Food Production Reduction in Locke Town" and other news. Although these things can be regarded as disasters, they are not good for the family's business.

For the large Klein family, it is not a big deal.

However, there is one line that stands out in particular. It says that a month ago, the Jewelry Association had a dispute with the Klein family. It was said that it was over a priceless jewelry. At that time, the old president of the Jewelry Association was already as high as one hundred.

The multi-year-old jewelery master Derrit personally visited the old Klein family patriarch.

There was a heavy black line underneath this piece of news. After all, it was specially marked. Apparently Bella also discovered the problem when she was sorting it out.

"Is there any more information about this news?" Leo pointed to this piece of information and asked Bella and Brown, who also frowned and shook their heads.

"Sir, after all, this is a matter between the Jewelry Association and the Klein family. Both parties are important figures with status, so naturally not much information will be leaked.

But after that incident, the financial resources of the Klein family obviously showed an extremely tight trend." Brown said in a low voice, "Is it possible that this is the reason for the problems in the Klein family?"

"Wait..." At this time, Bella seemed to suddenly have a flash of inspiration in her mind, with a look of surprise on her face, "I wonder who he is."

Um?

Leo and Brown both looked at Bella, looking a little confused.

"I seem to have some impression of that man, the old man who blocked the road that day," Bella said with a slightly excited expression, "Buden Klein, the former Marquis Klein.

He once made great contributions in the war with the empire, and was rewarded by His Majesty Alfred II with half of the marquisdom, which was integrated with the original marquisdom, and eventually became the current size of the Klein family.

However, it seems to be involved in some extremely secretive matters. After Budden Klein returned to the royal capital, he disappeared. In terms of seniority, he should be regarded as the grandfather of the contemporary Marquis Klein."

Um?

Bella's own face looked a little strange, as if she had realized something, and explained again, "The old Marquis Klein was rumored to have obtained the treasure of the Noldor elves, and he lived a long life. Some people said that this was the reason why he was refrigerated.

The old Marquis Klein, also known as Budden, was once a strong man of at least level 12 or above, and there were even rumors that he was a lion knight.

However, due to some reasons, his information was incomplete. I also thought of him after accidentally seeing his top-secret information during a mission. It was an extremely ancient record, but the portrait was different from the day I saw him.

The difference is not big, I just suddenly remembered it now that we are discussing the Klein family."

Leo and Brown looked at each other a little bit. Come on, it was Bella who really found the old man's identity, but this also brought them closer to the truth.

Regarding the title of a noble title, for example, the Marquis of Budden could also be the Marquis of Klein. When he was the patriarch of this surname and had a high prestige of the title, he would most likely be called the Marquis of Klein.

It's just that the Marquis of Klein at this time is no longer Budden Klein, but his grandson, so it is somewhat inappropriate to call him Marquis of Klein.

For example, Leo is the patriarch of the Archimonde family at this time. It is okay to call him Earl Archimonde, but because he is young, calling him this seems a bit old-fashioned, so everyone generally calls him Earl Archimonde.

Called Count Leo.

Of course, if a person's reputation is too great, his prestige is too high, or even overwhelms his family too much, it will be the same at this time. When people call him someone because of his personal strength, they will pay more attention to the individual.

Although the Marquis of Budden at this time is not like that, because Marquis Klein already has someone, although it is slightly inappropriate to call him Marquis of Budden, it can only be so.

"Being refrigerated..." Leo sighed softly. The water was getting muddier and muddier. He was a hero from Alfred II's time who had been refrigerated for some unknown reason, but he appeared in front of him not long ago.

When he thought about the complexity behind this, he had a headache.

Indeed, Bella was talking about a possibility. After all, a powerful man with high prestige and obtained the secret of longevity may live an extremely long time. This would naturally cause the king at that time to be afraid, and it was reasonable for him to be refrigerated.

,But……

During that time period? A few shadows inexplicably flashed across Leo's mind. What if the collusion between the Klein family and the Snake Cult was not entirely due to money? Maybe there was a grudge in history as well?

But these are not important now. Leo thought for a moment, frowned tightly, and then said after a slight hesitation, "Where does Master Derrit live? I will visit some in person later to see if I can

gain something."

"Morvent Road, let me go with you," Brown glanced at the record on the side and said.

"Yeah," Leo nodded, constantly thinking in his mind, if the inexplicable dispute in the Jewelry Association is the reason why the Klein family's financial chain suddenly became tense, then where did this dispute come from?

It can't happen for no reason, right? It's impossible for a large Klein family to suddenly spend a lot of money impulsively, unless the Jewelry Association is blackmailing? No... are you kidding me?

Leo was also a little laughed at by his own brain circuit. Maybe the Klein family really bought a priceless treasure? But does it have any special meaning? Otherwise, even if it is an ancestral treasure, it will not risk the entire family.

Should I buy it at the risk of being wiped out?

It's really weird.

"Sir, Master Naderit doesn't have a very good temper. You also need to be mentally prepared. He is the nephew of Prince Ravi. He has been obsessed with jewelry since he was a child and has a very high status in the art world." Brown said lowly.

Sheng was making preparations for the meeting with Leo. The information was very detailed. Such a large patrolman was still very effective.

However, this news also made Leo slightly stunned. Well, it really deserves to be the capital of the Lion Realm. A random person may have an amazing background. Prince Ravi is the uncle of King Ulric. Although he does not control

Great power, but very noble status.

But when I thought about it, it was natural. After all, if you didn't come from a very high background, how could you possibly be able to come into contact with and study such things as jewelry? The family background is naturally not too simple.

A large number of patrollers and a small number of lion followers still attracted a lot of attention along the way. Many people in the royal capital also looked at these people who dared to gallop in the royal capital with a bit of awe.

Most nobles do not have such courage.

Finally, the sound of horse hooves gradually calmed down. At this time, Leo had arrived at Movent Road, which was an extremely luxurious street in the Xicheng District of the royal capital. Both sides of the road were exquisitely repaired, and there were scattered people walking in the street.

There are several luxurious mansions, but they are different from the Carlt Road where Leo was before or the mansions of other nobles.

The mansion here is a little less powerful, but more refined. The surrounding walls are all painted with relief paintings. Each mansion wall seems to be a work of art. Here is the royal capital of literati and elegant guests.

It is a gathering place where many well-known artists like to buy a big house here, where they can drink and make friends on weekdays, which is extremely happy.

Of course, having an identity is the prerequisite, similar to what Leo said in his previous life: "There are scholars who talk and laugh, and there are no white people who come and go." As for the first-rate wandering poets, they can only sing in the tavern. This is not a place they can expect.

Of course, as the sound of horse hooves tore apart the original peace, many literary masters, painting masters, and stone carving masters also stopped what they were doing, with expressions of worry on their faces.

Although none of the people here have held any high-level official positions, they are highly respected by others. Even ordinary nobles will treat each other with courtesy. This Morvent Road has not been so noisy for a long time. What?

Are people so rude?

A great painter put down the pen in his hand, opened the curtains and looked outside, good guys, a large group of patrollers, and lion retinues, but they were...

After seeing the other party's goal, the great painter shook his head slightly. It turned out that he was looking for the jewelry master Derrit. Well, this matter was not something he could interfere with.

…

At this time, Derrit was a little inexplicably irritable. He was thinking about that exquisite idea. He only needed to embed the green colored crystal and one-third of the sapphire into his masterpiece. The entire work seemed to be able to reach a higher level.

Floor, at this time, the sound of horse hooves outside the door made him particularly unhappy.

Who is not discerning enough to gallop on the streets of this art palace? It is really time for the city guards to take care of it when they have time. It is best that no one on Morvent Road can ride a horse.

Of course, this was just a thought. After Derrit scolded the man galloping on Morvent Road, and after the sound of horse hooves stopped, he fell into deep thought again, but he didn't expect...

Bang bang bang...

He was so rude when he knocked on the door. He was really a barbarian. Derrit took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, but then he seemed to hear the voice of his butler. Could it be that they came to find him?

These barbarians, what do you have to talk to them about?

Drita frowned, all the ideas in her mind were expelled, and naturally she felt extremely unhappy.

The steward came later to report that he was indeed here to ask for an audience, but he didn't expect that it was the new patrolman Leo Archimonde, who had a good reputation in the royal capital?

Why did this guy come to see me? For a moment, Derrit also frowned slightly. In Leo's past world, there was a saying called "a scholar meets a soldier," and this was probably the case.

After all, the Patrollers, as a violent organization, still gave Derrit some instinctive disgust and fear. If it were anyone else, even a big noble, he would not feel this fear.
