The next morning, outside Kanglilei's room, a ten-captain was yawning, as if he had not had a good rest last night.
A soldier said to the captain: "Captain... The Duke's body has been taken away, why do we still need to stay here?"
"This is the order of the commander." The commander of ten said: "You think I want to be here. The commander has no choice now. The king asked him to find the murderer, but he couldn't find it, so let us guard here. It's too much.
I wonder if the murderer will come here again."
"No way," the soldier said, suddenly remembering something, and said to the captain: "Captain, please don't say it, but now I remember, isn't there another person in our team? I didn't seem to see him yesterday.
Did you go somewhere to be lazy?"
Impossible. The captain took a good look at the soldiers guarding here. Not to mention, there was indeed one missing person. Where did he go? The captain thought for a while and said, "Well...
·There is really one missing, Xiao Chen... The Duke's death made us exhausted yesterday, and we forgot about Xiao Chen for a while. This guy even asked me to imprison slaves the night before.
The key to the cell, I want to teach the slaves inside, I don’t care about the slaves, as long as they don’t die, if you don’t tell me, I haven’t remembered yet, this kid went there the night before yesterday and never came back, TMD
···He also slacked off for me and asked us to work here. You can keep an eye on this while I go to the cell where the slaves are held to see what he is doing."
"He's the captain," the soldier said, "We can't leave him idle. We'll do the work."
The captain looked unhappy and walked towards the cell.
The dark corridor outside the cell made the captain, who was approaching, be careful about his steps as he slowly approached the cell.
Suddenly, his eyes saw the open cell door. "What's going on?" The Captain ran to the cell door in a few steps. "Run?" He walked a few steps inside. The light in the cell was very weak. The Captain
He scolded: "This bastard, how dare you let the Duke's slave go?"
Well, fortunately... the Duke is dead, and this matter will not be mentioned, but this kid is really a bastard, and he is very courageous. I will scold you when you come back..." As he spoke, he turned his body and rolled his eyes.
He briefly glanced around the cell and walked out.
But as soon as he took two steps, he stopped with a tremor in his heart. "Is there any slave left?" He turned his head sharply and looked into the darkness. A gray figure was lying on the ground, but the figure's back seemed like
There are more things that humans don’t have.
The Captain's eyes widened, and he rushed over in fear, "It's Xiao Chen..." Seeing clearly that it was his soldier lying on the ground, the Captain squatted down and touched Xiao Chen's throat, "He's dead."
···MD No wonder I haven’t seen him since yesterday. He died here, but who killed him? A slave?”
The captain looked around again in disbelief, "They are all running away. If they were killed by slaves, these slaves are not simple, Ai Fanke..." The captain thought of Ai Fanke who was imprisoned here, "I have to tell him
Captain, maybe it is related to the death of the Duke." The Captain quickly stood up and left the cell.
······
"Drive" the captain wildly pulled the horse rope in his hand, rode the Yanju horse all the way to the palace, and hurried to see Consinda.
In the study, Consinda stood by the window, looking outside. She just wanted to know who killed her brother.
"Dong dong dong..." The door was knocked, and a figure walked in.
The figure walked in and said to Consinda: "Father...have you found out who killed uncle?"
"No." Consinda shook her head. "Have you already blocked the city gate? No one is leaving the city?"
"Yes, Father," Kang Jina said, "Father ordered me to do it yesterday, and I have already ordered the city to be closed."
"Did the murderer just evaporate like this?" Consinda turned around and looked at Kang Jina and said, "We searched the city and found no suspicious person."
"Father, don't worry," Kang Jina said, "Uncle's murderer will always be found."
"Your Majesty... there is news," the guard outside the door suddenly shouted outside.
"Come in," Consinda shouted happily.
The door was opened, and the captain walked in. He first saluted Concinda and Kangina, and then said: "Report to the king, I have found new information, which may be related to the death of the Duke..."
"Speak quickly," Consinda said urgently.
"Yes" the captain responded and said: "This morning my men discovered that one of their men was missing, so they went to the cell where the duke kept the slaves to check, but they found that the soldier was dead, and the man in the cell was
All the slaves have run away..."
"Pa"
When Consinda heard this, she banged the table in displeasure, "I asked you to find the murderer. What do you think a dead soldier was doing with Connilei's slave? Could the slave be related to Connilei's death?"
The captain waited for Consinda to finish speaking, and then continued: "Your Majesty... the slaves are all restrained by black gold shackles. It is impossible to use fighting spirit. How could they kill the soldiers and still escape? Some subordinates said before
, the night before yesterday, the Duke got a slave with great strength and good skills. He said it might be this one.
The slaves killed the soldiers, and then these slaves ran out. Moreover, there was a slave in this group of slaves named Ivanke. He used to be a guard in the Duke's palace, but later the Duke used a trick to turn him into a slave.
, I just thought, Ivanke hated the Duke, so after he ran out, he might have killed the Duke."
"I didn't expect..." Consinda said: "My brother has done this kind of thing. Your analysis is very good, but it doesn't make sense. In terms of strength, the Ivanke you mentioned is a former guard.
, it is impossible to kill my brother."
The captain continued: "But among these slaves, there are four other mercenaries captured by the king. They also ran away. Could it be related to them, because no outsiders have been found in the city, and there have been very few recently.
There are outsiders."
Consinda looked at Kang Jina, immediately stood up and walked out, shouting: "Follow me."
Kang Jina hurriedly followed him out.
······
The guards at the city gate were still at the city gate, performing their duties. Three shadows appeared on the ground. Looking up, they saw Consinda, Kangina, and the captain falling from the sky.
"Your Majesty," the guard saluted.
Consinda asked: "Did anyone go out of the city yesterday morning? A mercenary uniform."
"Yes" the guard remembered clearly, because at noon Kang Jina came to order the city to be closed, and the only people who left the city were the Pluto Emperor and a few people. "A total of 6 people left the city."
"Who are they?" Consinda said excitedly: "When did you leave the city gate?"
The guard continued: "They look like ordinary civilians. One person is wearing short and simple clothes, the other five are wearing robes, and they are not wearing mercenary uniforms."
"Are you sure? There are no people in mercenary uniforms leaving the city?" Consinda continued to ask.
"Replying to the king...no," the guard said, "I remember clearly that they came to the city gate not long after we opened the city gate, and only those 6 people left the city yesterday."
"Is there another winged man?" the captain asked.
"Yes," the guard said.
The captain looked at Consinda and said: "Reporting to the king, I think it was those mercenaries and Ai Fanke who were right. They left the city just after opening the city gate. They must have escaped for their lives. There was another one.
Unknown slaves, the death of the Duke is in some way related to them."
"Find them for me," Consinda said angrily, "Send someone to look for them, and you must find them for me."
"It's your king," the captain responded, "I will take people out to look for them now."
"Kangina." Kangzinda looked over with a bad look on her face. "You let me down again this time. You don't have your own opinions. Why didn't you ask the guards at the city gate yesterday?"
"I'm sorry, father." Kang Jina lowered her head and apologized.
"You know what these mercenaries look like, come and find them with me," Consinda waved her hand and said.
"It's my father." Kang Jina followed the commander and prepared to lead the troops.
