Chapter 431: murder

https:///>The banquet at the Earl's Mansion lasted until late at night without ending. Liszt was lucky to be involved in the small circle of Viscount de Gubral. A group of men held pipes and smoked the best tobacco, chatting in the lingering smoke. Men always talk about military politics, so I don't know when they started discussing the latest situation in Jiaowan. "It's getting more and more difficult to do business along the coast now." A gentleman wearing a bowler hat filled the tobacco with graceful movements, stretched the pipe over the candle and ignited it carefully, sighing helplessly. "Oh, Aubli, do you still have a way out? My business firm has been expelled by the coastal people long ago." Viscount Lal snorted coldly. "It's all to blame for some ambitious people behind the scenes to push our country into the abyss of war." He picked up a glass of bright red wine, raised his neck and drank it down. "I will never let our country fall into a disaster." These words only made Liszt feel that Viscount Brar's tone was really loud. Cable, who was sitting next to him, whispered to him: "Don't think my teacher is just a viscount, but his status as a court astrologer makes His Majesty the King attach great importance to his opinions. Our Majesty the King... well, a little superstitious." A bit superstitious? Liszt has question marks all over his head, it's really strange to say this from an astrologer, don't you guys believe your own way? The gentleman in front said again: "But many of us here are looking forward to going to war with the coastal people. Listen to what they say!" Liszt listened carefully, and a burst of ugly curses came along with laughter. Come,. A guest shrugged, "They think that although the coastal people rule the sea, they are just a group of lambs on land. As long as our warriors rush to each other's door, they can easily enter and take away money, silk, and porcelain. , spices.” Viscount Blair commented very disdainfully: “They are all a group of idiots who only learned how to play military chess and talk about war.” The gentleman in front smiled and asked him: “I said Degu, you are so unequivocally opposed Are you not afraid of offending people when you go to war?" Viscount Brar shrugged his shoulders, and said very freely: "Anyway, I have offended many people in the past, and if I owe more debts, I won't worry about it." After all, this is Jiaowan. Liszt wisely chose to listen to the internal contradictions. When the banquet was coming to an end, he decided to leave after drinking almost. The owner of the mansion warmly invited him to stay at his home, but after some evasions, he went with the waiter. …boom! boom! boom! There was a rapid knock on the door, waking up the sleeping Liszt. What happened? He quickly put on his clothes, got out of bed in a hurry and opened the door of the room. Standing outside the door was the waiter who sent him here yesterday. The waiter looked flustered and panting, as if he had run all the way here. He said: "Sir, you go to the front hall quickly, something has happened. I have to inform others, please go by yourself." Then the waiter ran away. Feeling uneasy and enduring the dizziness caused by hangover, Liszt came to the front hall, which was the hall where the banquet was held last night. There are already many people standing inside, the most eye-catching one is a group of knights in armor. Although there were many people, there was no trace of joy at yesterday's banquet here, but was replaced by a heavy and solemn atmosphere. The owner of the mansion, Earl Bridges, was talking with one of the knights. Seeing Liszt coming, the count said with an indescribable expression on his face: "It's too unfortunate, Mr. Liszt, that such a thing happened." "Unfortunate? What is it...?" Bridges was very He said solemnly: "Viscount Degubral, he... He was called by the Lord, it is really terrible, a good-looking person, who was talking and laughing at my banquet yesterday, has become a corpse today..." De Gubral? Liszt remembered, wasn't it the astrologer at the banquet yesterday, the mentor of Cable. "It's really unfortunate..." he also said, and mourned silently in his heart, and hoped that the Viscount's departure would not affect the rehabilitation of Cable's mother. "That's right, Mr. Liszt." The man dressed as a knight spoke up, "We are from the city guard, and we are here to inform you about something. The death of Viscount Braal is too sudden, and he is not very old. , is also in good health, and has no bad habits on weekdays, so we suspect that he did not die of natural causes." "Murder?" Liszt blurted out with his eyes wide open. "It's not sure yet." The man dressed as a knight kept staring into his eyes, "It needs to be judged after the coroner's examination, but since you were the one who had direct contact with him yesterday, I hope you two Don't walk around in case we feel like...asking some questions." What else can I say? Liszt could only nod: "I will cooperate with you~www.readwn.com~ It's really unlucky to encounter this kind of thing. Then came a few guests who stayed overnight at the Earl's mansion, and they also got the same Inform. "Sorry, guests. "Earl Bridges said to everyone apologetically, "But Viscount Brar is a member of the court and is His Majesty's royal stargazer. His death is a very serious matter. You can't just leave the city. "After informing the guard of his accommodation, Liszt was already prepared to wait for several days, but he did not expect that things would progress the next day. He was notified that Viscount Degubral did not die of Murder, the case is over, and the people involved can move freely. Relieved, Liszt began to investigate Collins' business situation according to the original plan. After wandering around for a week, he packed his luggage and left the city, and In order to hurry, he bought a horse and rode it. At the same time, he also considered that the road was not smooth and he could escape in an emergency. He had a token from Earl Bridges in his luggage, and he might meet Le But it can come in handy when you can’t run away. Fortunately, I didn’t encounter the situation of being blackmailed like last time, but I met an unexpected person on the way. He was riding slowly forward at the time. Hearing a bumping sound coming from far and near, I couldn't help but
