Lord Highlander

It was getting dark gradually, and the street lights in the city had been turned on by night watchmen one after another.

Pedestrians on the main street are still in an endless stream, but some back streets and alleys are completely dark, except for those local snakes who are familiar with this area, few people go into the secluded alleys at this time.

The carriage rented by Suerdak crossed a busy long street, passed an arched stone bridge, and walked a long way along the stone road.

It wasn't until there were fewer and fewer shops around, and there were some large houses all around, that Suldak realized that the carriage had entered the wealthy area of ​​Everson City.

This city is really big, the scenery outside the car window is constantly changing, the dim street lamps pass back from the car window one by one, this area is full of high-walled courtyards, the carriage has been going until it is completely dark After coming down, he stopped beside a wall of rose flowers. The coachman opened the door for Suldak graciously, and said to Suldak with a smile on his face, "Master Knight, do you want to get off here?"

Suldak looked out twice and saw with his own eyes the young Beard walking into a villa without walls. There is actually a group of villas next to this rich area, and these villas have no courtyard. , next to the street, the villa is surrounded by lawns, and a row of banana trees are planted on both sides of the street, like a courtyard wall.

He shook his head and said to the coachman, "No, please go a little further and stop at the intersection in front of you."

"So you wanted to go to the Sherwood Mansion, but it's a good place to spend the night." The coachman immediately said to Suldak understandingly, and then he winked his eyes with a mean smile.

The street in front is a well-known mansion, where various high-end balls are often held, but Suerdak is wearing worn-out monster leather armor, so he doesn't look like a guest attending the ball.

The Green Empire Mansion is actually a kind of private high-end club for noble lords. These mansions usually provide various services for the nobles, including banquets, dances, press conferences, etc., and some mansions provide hotel accommodation services for the nobles. , Of course, the cost is much higher than that of ordinary hotels, the group of students from Bena Swordsman Academy who came out to practice.

At night, the Sherwood mansion was shrouded in bright lights all around. Almost every room in the mansion was brightly lit, and laughter and beautiful melodies came from the hall of the mansion. Fortunately, the coachman parked the carriage in a relatively secluded place. Sulda Ke got out of the car and paid a silver coin to the coachman, and the coachman drove away contentedly.

Suldak passed by the door of the mansion, quickly got behind the banana tree on the street, and in the shadow of the banana tree came to the side of the villa where Beard lived.

This is a two-story villa with an attic. The living room on the first floor of the villa is lit, and the soft light shines through the window. Beard can be vaguely seen walking back and forth in the living room. The lights were also turned on.

Suldak approached the villa silently with his waist down, and easily rolled into the terrace on the second floor along the side wall of the villa. There were still some clothes hanging on the drying rack on the terrace. He hid in the shadow of the terrace door and stretched out his hand. The door of the bedroom was gently pushed open, and there was a big bed in the center of the bedroom. The gauze hanging from the ceiling covered the whole big bed. The bed was covered with white silk sheets, clean and tidy.

There was no one in the bedroom, so Suldak picked up a copper candlestick from the table and quietly walked towards the door of the room.

Pushing away from the bedroom, the sound of running water came from the corridor, and the corridor seemed very quiet. There were two still life oil paintings hanging on the white walls on both sides.

Just when Suerdak was about to follow the sound of water to find it, the bathroom door on the second floor of the villa was pushed open.

"Lucy sweetheart, are you here?"

While wiping his wet hair with a towel, Beard walked out of the bathroom wearing only a bath towel, his tone full of eager joy.

He walked downstairs along the corridor and saw that there was no one in the living room downstairs, and no one answered, and he wanted to go back upstairs with some doubts.

A candlestick suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and at the moment of his astonishment, it hit his forehead fiercely, and Beard felt the world spinning in front of him, and a bright red liquid flowed into his eyes, making blood red in the field of vision One piece, one second later, when the eyes are dark, you can't feel anything.

Suldak came out from the corner of the stairs, the candlestick in his hand was stained with blood, and the sticky blood flowed onto his hand, before he knelt down and wiped his hand with Beard's towel He carefully wiped off the blood on the candlestick, placed the candlestick on the square table next to him, then turned around and walked to Beard again, knelt down and patted his fat face.

The young aristocratic officer was like a clean-shaven white pig, lying on the floor, with a big puddle of blood dripping from his forehead on the floor.

Although he didn't feel anything, he still seemed to be breathing. Suldak cleaned up the blood on his forehead in a leisurely manner, and then wiped the blood on the floor, before prying his mouth open. Stuffed the bloody towel completely into his mouth, and tied Beard's hands and feet tightly with tendon bowstrings, then dragged him to the attic on the top floor of the villa, and tied him up in the villa On the pillar of the main beam.

After doing all this, Suldak breathed a sigh of relief, then walked slowly downstairs to turn off the lights in the living room, lay down on the bed that originally belonged to Beard, and fell asleep soundly, until it was almost dawn , I heard a bang bang sound from the attic.

Suldak woke up from the dream, went to the bathroom to wash his face unhurriedly, and then climbed up the attic from the ladder at the end of the corridor.

The moment Suldak pushed away the dustproof cover of the attic, the noise in the attic stopped abruptly. Beard was tied to the main beam of the attic, looking at Suldak in horror, waiting for him to see Sue clearly. Behind Erdak's face, he was even more frightened and trembling all over, constantly struggling to get out of trouble, but this kind of tendon rope, the more he struggled, the tighter he tightened it.

Suldak stooped over to Beard and sat down on the dusty floor in front of him.

At this time, Beard's white body was covered with dust, like a gray mouse that everyone shouted to beat, and he stared at Suldak in fear.

But Suldak smiled faintly, and said to him: "I know you are a smart person, even if I pull the thing out of your mouth, you won't yell, right?"

Beard nodded desperately with a look of horror on his face. At this time, snot and tears flowed out together, as embarrassing as he wanted.

Pulling out the bloody towel that was stuck in his mouth, Beard panted heavily, as if he would suffocate to death later.

Suldak reached out and patted Beard's chubby cheek, and asked him, "You know who I am, don't you?"

Beard nodded repeatedly with horror on his face, and shook his head desperately after a few seconds as if remembering something.

"say……"

Suldak said impatiently.

He has always wondered why the Duke of Newman made this group of inexperienced young nobles form a war room.

"My lord knight, for the sake of the fact that I haven't done anything harmful to the world, I beg you to let me go, please!" Bild said tremblingly, there was a trembling cry in his voice, and he seemed to be terrified pole.

"Oh, I can make my family pay you a ransom, I think I still have some value, just please don't kill me..."
