Holding the fainted man in his hand, he walked to the two guards who were standing still and staring blankly. The vampire committed suicide and said:

"Stab this person to death!" The vampire straightened the person in his hand, grabbed his hair and lifted his head, revealing a face exactly like Assassin who ran over just now.

This man's clothes are exactly the same as Assassin's. He also wears a hidden sword on his wrist. There are also throwing knives and pocket crossbows hidden in his clothes. Obviously, this is the scapegoat carefully prepared by the assassination team.

After the hypnotized guard heard the vampire's words, he stretched out his sword-holding hand and stabbed into the man's body without hesitation. The severe pain awakened the sleepy ghost. He watched in disbelief as he stabbed two The body of the long sword, but couldn't say a word, only blood was constantly spilling from his mouth.

The two guards stabbed a few times in a row, completely dying for the dead ghost, and then the vampire said:

"You blocked the assassin in a dead end. He had nowhere to escape and had to fight with you, but he was not your opponent at all. In the end, you wanted to stay alive but accidentally killed him, so you could only bring it back. Do you remember his body?"

"Remember!" The two guards responded rigidly, holding the corpse.

"Very good, you will return to normal in 30 seconds, and then you will take the corpse directly to the Marquis' Mansion." After speaking, the vampire walked out of the alley, tidied up his collars, and walked to the pre-determined meeting point. .

Thirty seconds later, the two guards were alert, and then woke up. Looking at the corpse in their hands, although they felt something was wrong, they finally believed their false memories and dragged the corpse to the Marquis' Mansion.

Half an hour later, Francisco's son Gilmer looked gloomily at his father's body in the Marquis' Mansion. He was the only son in the family, and the four remaining children of Francisco were daughters, so he never had to worry about inheritance. , Now that his father is dead, he is the new marquis. At this time, a complex emotion in his heart that does not know whether it is happiness or sadness is mixed together, and he is a little lost.

Francisco's body has been simply decorated, the crossbow bolts from the neck have been pulled out, the wounds have been covered with clothes, and the blood has been wiped dry, but the lifeless pale face and lips make one can see at a glance that he has died.

"The whole city mourned for three days, first made a good coffin for my father, and brought it to me to catch the real murderer, and then hold a funeral for him! I heard that the assassin was caught, take me to see it!" Gilmore said to the butler beside him.

"My lord, the assassin has indeed been found, but he has already died under the guard's hands. Do you still want to see it?"

"Well, if he can design those traps, he is definitely not alone. Has he found his accomplice?"

"Not yet, but the vigilante blocked the city as soon as he knew about it. They would definitely not be able to escape in such a short time, unless they left here long ago, leaving only this assassin, but this also Unlikely, generally speaking, this kind of assassination must have a back-up."

"Well, block the whole city, no one can leave, and then ask the soldiers to quickly search me from house to house, and don't miss any corner!"

"What about those nobles' mansions?"

"Search for the others first, and if you can't find it, those nobles will also search!"

After speaking, Gilmer turned around and walked out the door, and motioned for the housekeeper to take him to see the assassin's body. After the assassin's body was brought back, it was placed in a warehouse in the mansion. At this time, many people were already studying the assassin, trying to see if they could tell whether he belonged to him from the marks on his equipment or clothes or on his body. that force.

Seeing Gilmer come in, those people consciously gave way to both sides. After all, Gilmer's succession as a marquis is already a certainty.

Walking in front of the "assassin"'s body, Gilmer suddenly felt a little familiar. He carefully looked at the "assassin"'s face, and then fell into memory. Don't dare to ask, don't dare to speak.

Suddenly, Gilmer clapped his hands and said:

"I've seen this assassin. It's actually by the side of Viscount Moncef. It seems to be one of his attendants or guards. He was standing behind Moncef when he followed his father and had a meeting with them some time ago to discuss how to deal with that Rodette!"

"But how could he be an assassin? Monsef should not be stupid enough to send someone who everyone knows is his subordinate to assassinate his father!" Gilmer said something strange, and then thought silently, There are so many possibilities that there is no way to find the truth by guesswork alone.

"Monsef is in the manor outside the city. You invite him to the mansion and observe his expression. Monsef has always given the impression that he is not a person who is good at calculating and hiding his thoughts. He called in to confront him, but don't tell him the truth, just say I have other things to invite."

If it was really sent by Monsef, then he might refuse to come to the mansion to meet him, but it is also possible that he pretended not to know and tried to deceive himself. What he showed in the past was an illusion. If he hid his city for decades, then this person is too scary!

After thinking about it for a while, Gilmer decided not to think about it, and waited until the results of the city search came out and then studied it after confronting Moncef.

After a day and night of intensive search, the city guards finally found something of value in a small remote courtyard. This seems to be the hideout of the previous assassin. The guards called a few times and everyone answered and then directly broke open the door and left. Go in, and soon found clues in the room in the center of the small courtyard.

A lot of various tools, files, arrows, wooden sticks, rubber bands are scattered on a table. This seems to be the workbench used by the assassin to assemble weapons and traps. In a brazier in the corner, the guards found a small half. Broken piece of paper with burnt edges.

The assassin's accomplices should have left in a hurry. They didn't even notice that the letters were not burnt. Many things were thrown on the ground at random. There were many different sets of clothes in the closet, some were civilians, some looked like For merchants, there are even the uniforms of attendants and the uniforms of the city guards.

Obviously, the assassin used these clothes to disguise and sneak into a lot of places before. The handwriting on the broken piece of paper was blurred, and it was only a corner, and there were not many words at first. After careful identification, the only recognizable words on the paper were a person's name. .
