"If I were you, then I would bring at least thirty more people with me." Su Zuo followed Wei Jieer and sneered at the girl's decision just now, "The black carriage before was from the Duke's Palace, right?
No matter who is sitting inside, as long as he has an accident, neither you nor the old man will end well, right?"
"Ha..." Wei Jie'er sighed, put her right hand on the long sword at her waist, and turned around, "Thirty people!? With the current manpower, let alone thirty people, thirteen people have been beaten.
Don’t come out! I’m enough for you, there are quite a few people left in the square... No! Why am I telling you so much!”
"Where is your boss? Where did he go?" Su Zuo tilted his head, ignoring the contempt in Wei Jier's eyes, and continued to ask, "From what you mean, he doesn't seem to be in the new district now?"
Wei Jie'er didn't stop, but her golden pupils glanced at Su Zuo warily: "Why are you asking so many questions?"
"It's just to obtain information." Su Zuo explained without hesitation, "Now that we have reached a cooperative relationship with you, we at the Golden Lock of Crow do not want to end up in vain because of some accidents - the basis of cooperation.
, that old man continues to serve as the top officer of the Wenning District Public Security Station, I don’t think he can be as easy to talk to after changing the person."
Weijier glanced at the kid next to her with complicated eyes. The meaning of the kid named Yiwen Ian's words was as if he could fully represent the Golden Lock of Crow. This seemed a bit ridiculous, but a few days ago
That night, after personally experiencing the scene where this brat convinced the crow man, Wei Jier suddenly felt a little less confident.
But she felt that her head was indeed a mess right now, and it would be a good idea to talk to this brat and sort it out by the way.
So the girl straightened her expression, thought about it seriously, and then answered Su Zuo's initial question: "Before dawn (Sunday), a high-level monster fell from the fault zone at the outer edge of Wenning District. Chief Cromwell
I took people to hunt and kill, but I haven’t come back yet.”
Su Zuo nodded. Because of the collapse, Wenning District has no city walls. The entire Wenning District is a huge pit. It is easy for monsters to get in, but if they want to get out after entering, they have to think carefully.
.
"However, in addition to Chief Cromwell, Sister Knetin of the church is still in the church, so the safety of my wife is basically no problem, otherwise I would not have left my wife in the first place."
Madam... So it is the Duchess of Silver Rose who is here?
Su Zuo thought thoughtfully: "So, the square is probably the only place that has not had any problems since today? That's why you rushed back to check the situation?"
Weijier glanced at Su Zuo with a somewhat thoughtful look: "...Ah...Yes...Madam's arrival was completely confidential before. Our police station only received it after Chief Cromwell left.
Notice, so it feels impossible to plan a well-planned attack against Madam in such a short period of time. On the contrary, if the other party’s target at the beginning is not Madam, but the civilians in the church or the square..."
"Terrorism is indeed everywhere..." Su Zuo muttered to himself.
"What did you say?" Wei Jier didn't hear clearly what Su Zuo was saying.
"No, it's nothing. But speaking of it, the reason why there haven't been any problems in the square is probably because most of the troops from the church and the security station are concentrated there, so no one dares to act rashly... Hmm!"
Just as Su Zuo was saying this, a man in black robe suddenly bumped into him.
"Sorry..." leaving a hoarse apology, the tall man in black robe disappeared deep into the crowd without turning his head.
"Hmm... strange person..." Su Zuo rubbed his arm that was so painful from being hit, and looked at the man's back with some confusion.
I don't know if it's his imagination... That touch always feels a little strange... It's like——
Steel?!
.
Even people in Wenning District have heard a little bit about the kindness and kindness of the Silver Rose Duchess. The most critical reason is that, unlike the Silver Rose Duchess's indifference, this young Duchess named Sheryl
, often go to some poorer urban areas on holiday days and personally distribute some holiday gifts to the poor, even if their actual value is not worth mentioning.
"Even if they are just something that a nobleman will never use or eat in his lifetime, for the poor, it is enough to warm the hearts of the poor."
With the sugar water she bought at a stall nearby, Weijier chewed the biscuits in her hand and swallowed them. She hadn't had breakfast yet and was ravenous. She was already starving.
"Would you like some?"
Looking at the oatmeal biscuits handed over by the girl, Su Zuo shook his head, although he had never seen such high-end biscuits since he came to this world.
"Is that the Duchess of Silver Rose?"
Standing on the steps at the door of the church, Su Zuo and the girl from the police station looked at the woman who covered her face with a hat and a veil and was wearing a goose-yellow luxurious dress. The police officer was more than sixty or seventy meters away.
In front of the door of the house, a small space was separated from the road by the security guards with railings and ropes. Children in ragged clothes lined up in a row, with surprise and joy on their slightly disheveled faces. They kept bowing their heads and thanking,
They received a small glass of milk and a small piece of meat pie from the woman whose identity they did not know. Although the amount of each portion was not a lot, it was enough to satisfy their hunger for the day.
What's more important is the faint aroma of meat, which can be smelled from a long distance away, making people's mouth water.
Su Zuo could imagine that there were definitely not a few children who had diarrhea due to gastrointestinal discomfort tonight.
"A very good person. Although he was born as the daughter of a wealthy businessman, he is very kind-hearted. Before he married Duke Feldnan, he liked to help the common people around him. He is also very religious."
Although you can't tell from the way she hangs out with Su Zuosi now, Miss Sheriff is from an upper-class noble family after all, and she is very familiar with some aristocratic secrets that common people rarely know.
"She is a good person... but it seems that there are not many guards around her?" Su Zuo counted, except for the two maids holding the baby behind the lady, the ones guarding the Duchess of Silver Rose at this time were,
Only 12 people wore different uniforms than the Sheriff.
"Your eyes are really poisonous... No, it's not so much your eyes, it's more like you, a kid from the slums, can realize something is wrong so quickly... Have you really never heard of similar rumors?"
"Rumors are just rumors. They can neither reflect the truth nor hide the real truth. Only the results that are seen with one's own eyes and sorted out with care can be convincing..." Su Zuo did not directly deny it. He used his hand to
He set up a pergola above his eyes and looked at the mature Duchess in the distance. Even though he couldn't see her face, her curves and temperament, which were almost like a ripe peach, were extremely attractive.
"Ha... I really admire you. Just as you guessed, this Duchess... is indeed not very favored."
Wei Jier sighed and explained to Su Zuo: "Archduke Feldernand had a very good relationship with his assassinated first wife, Mrs. Sherrill's predecessor, and he never forgot her even after her death. On the contrary,
The Grand Duke was very indifferent to Lady Sherrill, especially after Lady Sherrill gave birth to a daughter for the first time, Duke Feldernand became even more indifferent to her."
"That's right... If the family is happy, who would have nothing to do, not spend time with their family during the festival, but run out to hang out with the poor..."
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Wei Jier always felt that there was something in Su Zuo's teasing.
However, Weijier raised her eyebrows and did not say anything, but continued: "But even so, this little princess is the only one of the Silver Rose family after the little Duke was assassinated. Twenty-one
The Nanling War in 2006 caused heavy losses to the Silver Rose Family - it is no wonder that the late emperor insisted on defying all opinions and conferred the title of hereditary duke on the previous Grand Duke. But...I am afraid that many nobles are watching with cold eyes, looking forward to this powerful and powerful event.
The fragile bloodline of Silver Rose has completely withered."
Weijier's tone was cold, as if the nobles who were watching her indifferently had nothing to do with her. Her eyes lingered on the baby held by the maid for a moment, and then she looked into the distance.
"I understand." Su Zuo drank the sugar water in his hand, "Then speaking, can you just stand here? Why don't you go over and watch?"
"No need, just to protect her, the manpower around Madam is enough. I believe those heretical fanatics are not capable of sneaking into the children and assassinating Madam under the eyes of the monks of the Prayer Society. As for me, I want to sneak into the gathering place in the square.
Take a look around the city and see if you can find some people behaving strangely."
At this point, Weijier raised her hand and looked at her uniform: "But my outfit is too conspicuous, so——"
"So I want to ask if I can help you?" Su Zuo rubbed his forehead, and he suddenly realized why Wei Jier suddenly became so easy to talk to.
Taking advantage of the girl's unpreparedness, Su Zuo jumped up: "This is free! I'm going back to Nolan Ji'er soon. I told you that I'm very tight on time!"
Before escaping from the girl's sight, Su Zuo suddenly remembered the previous incident, so he turned back and glanced at the girl sheriff who seemed a little depressed:
"But I would like to remind you - pay attention to a tall man wearing a black robe, he seems to have iron..."
Su Zuo opened his mouth, but suddenly found with some surprise that he couldn't hear his own voice.
The next moment, a fiery shock wave knocked him to the ground.
The exposed skin was burning hot, his ears were buzzing, and he wiped away the uncontrollable tears in his eyes. Su Zuo looked at the severely bruised arm and leg joints and got up.
The field of vision that was originally densely packed with people suddenly became empty.
Standing among the billowing fire and smoke, Su Zuo saw the square in front of him——
