Tewat's Me Undercover in Solstice Winter

Chapter 367 Reason for arrest

Carres is not hard to find.

After just a little inquiry, someone led Lin Feng and Youla the way.

Carres' Rose of Thorns Society Fontainebleau is already very famous, and there are many people who have been helped by the Rose of Thorns Society.

In addition, he was recently involved in a murder case.

This made him even more famous, and any passerby could ask for his address.

It's just that [Unjust Kares] doesn't have a good reputation.

In particular, in order to resist the trial, Carres actually found a duel agent to come forward.

Although his duel agent won.

But this kind of behavior is actually equivalent to admitting guilt.

Although everyone said that they were willing to participate in the duel to ensure their reputation, no one thought so.

People in Fontaine who had heard about the case and watched the duel were more willing to believe their own story.

"Kares, he is the murderer."

"In order to escape guilt, he actually found someone to take his place in the duel with Miss Clolinde."

"coward."

"If you don't dare to do it yourself, find someone to take your place!"

This is a common refrain.

What happened was that someone was killed at a banquet. At the scene of the murder, people only found Carres holding a pistol. After an investigation by the law enforcement court, it was determined that Carres was the real murderer of the case. .

However, when the trial was about to begin, Carres chose to fight a duel agent to save his honor.

Follow the instructions of passers-by.

Lin Feng and Youla quickly found the headquarters of the Rose of Thorns Society located underground in Fontaine.

“I never thought there was a place like this in Fontaine.”

Walking in the dim underground passage, smelling the vague sour smell in the air, Yora frowned tightly.

It’s different from the glamorous uptown area of ​​Fontaine.

This underground city is full of tatters and old furnishings.

Fortunately.

Although shabby, it is not dirty.

As for the faint smell, it comes from distant pipes and is not in residential areas.

The reason why they can smell it is simply because Lin Feng and Youla's sense of smell is too strong.

But the more so.

Yura also felt like she was in another world.

Obviously they are all in one country and one city.

But compared to the ground, it is not an exaggeration to say that the difference between cloud and mud is huge.

Such a contrast.

Yura has only been seen in one place.

Inaba City.

The three great powers pursued the power of chaos.

It was an era when the gap between rich and poor was higher than the towering Shadow Mountain.

Youla had seen with her own eyes the expensive meals that the rich and powerful rice wives poured out of their homes every day. The reason was simply that they couldn't finish the food and didn't want their servants to use it to deceive her again at the next meal.

And in the suburbs of Inazuma City, people there can't even eat a bowl of clean rice, they can only eat rough brown rice.

even say.

Even this kind of brown rice is donated by others. They can't afford this kind of rice on their own.

The current underground city called Gray River District in Fontaine is no different from Daozuma City at that time.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk-"

The headquarters of the Rose of Thorns Society was easy to find. Lin Feng politely stood in front of the door and knocked on the door.

After the door opens.

He is a middle-aged man with a tired face.

"The Rose of Thorns Society will not accept commissions recently, please come back."

After saying that, he sighed and prepared to close the door again.

"Hello, I'm not here to entrust you with a task. I'm here to see President Carres."

Lin Feng's voice was still very polite.

But such politeness could not win the middle-aged man's approval. He said coldly, "President Carres has been missing people recently," and then closed the door with force again.

just.

No matter how hard he tried, the door wouldn't budge.

The middle-aged man was a little angry. He actually took out a pistol from his pocket and pointed it at Lin Feng: "Hey, I told you, the boss doesn't want to see the guests! Leave quickly, or I will shoot."

"Ha ha--"

Lin Feng smiled lightly.

pistol.

Apart from Winter Kingdom, this was the first time Lin Feng had seen this kind of weapon in other countries.

He was still a little curious about this familiar weapon.

In Fontaine, it is illegal to own a gun.

But if you have a gun certificate, you'll be fine.

but
"Shoot at me, and you, the Thorny Rose Society, will be completely unable to stand up."

Lin Feng teased with an expression as if he was looking forward to a good show.

Facing such a man who was incompetent and not even afraid of a gun, the middle-aged man's hands began to tremble slightly.

His finger was not on the trigger to begin with, and now that he was told that, he was even more afraid to put his finger on it.

The two were in a stalemate for a while.

A more tired voice came over: "Okay, Mellors, let our guests come in."

It was a blond man with an eyepatch.

Thick dark circles surrounded the exposed one eye. What should have been a handsome face made up for the wrinkles.

"But, boss, you?"

The middle-aged man named Miles asked eagerly.

He knew that Kares had exhausted his energy due to this trial, and the fact that he succeeded in the duel but lost his reputation made Kares even more exhausted.

Before Lin Feng came, this strong man had fallen on the hospital bed several times, and even the affairs of the Rose of Thorns Society were left to his daughter who had just grown up to handle.

He really doesn't have the energy anymore.

"No problem."

Kares waved his hand, looked at Lin Feng and Youla carefully, and sighed: "This guest is not from Fontaine. He wants to come to me because of Mr. Dadalia."

"Oh?"

"It's very sharp."

Lin Feng was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, it can be seen at a glance that this Kares is not directed at him.

"Mr. Dadalia told me."

Carres smiled bitterly: "Before he was arrested, he told me that he had a friend who died. If he knew the news that he was captured by the Fontainebleau people, he would definitely cause chaos. He hoped that I could persuade him to I advise you."

"Uh"

Unexpected answer.

Lin Feng blinked his eyes and said with an expression like an old man on the subway: "This bastard, do I seem to be such a reckless person?"

As he said that, he glanced at her, hoping to get a confirmation from Youla.

However, Yula's expression also showed disapproval.

'I don't know who told me to go to prison! '

Looking at Youla's mouth shape, Lin Feng coughed awkwardly, turned to the direction of Kares again and said: "So, can I come in now?"

"Please come in."

"Miles!" Kares made a gesture of invitation and gave a light shout to Miles at the same time.

heard.

Miles reluctantly gave up his position and watched Yura Lin and Kares enter the room together.

Kares brought them to his office, which was very clean and tidy. It was obvious that he was a very well-behaved person.

"Mr. Carres, I want to know the reason why Dadalia was arrested."

Lin Feng didn't have the time to appreciate the things here, so he asked straight to the point.

"Feel sorry."

"I do not know."

Kares shook his head and said with a tangled expression: "Dadalia was found guilty by the Cardinal's decree. As for the crime and the length of the sentence, no one said."

"."

"Is your Fontaine trial such a child's play?"

Lin Feng was immediately dissatisfied.

I had long heard that Fontaine's trial was known for its drama, but I didn't expect it to be so dramatic.

"Whether a person is guilty or not, does that crap machine have the final say?"

Yula was also very dissatisfied.

Ajax is Lin Feng's life-and-death friend. To Youla, this person who has no blood relationship with her and is like a younger brother is even closer than those members of the Lawrence family.

"Dear young lady, you can just say this here, but don't go out and say it."

Kares quickly stopped Yora's unobtrusive behavior: "In Fontaine, any behavior that questions the cardinal's decree will be considered a crime, even the Lord Water God cannot do it."

"Yo hoo."

"This machine has quite a reputation."

Lin Feng is no longer sarcastic now, but is just a little strange.

Arguably.

The oracle ruled that the cardinal was made by the Water God himself. Even she could not question it. What was the principle of this machine?
"alright."

"Change the subject."

"What on earth did you commit?"

It was an established fact that Dadalia was captured, and now it seemed that the only way to save him was to go to the Water God.

But before that, Lin Feng felt that he still had to find a suitable reason and excuse.

On the premise of not conflicting with the water god, try to find people through legitimate and legal means.

"This"

When he mentioned this, Kares hesitated, as if he had something to hide.

"Embarrassed?"

"Did you really do that case?"

"You, the real culprit, have caused my brother to suffer unjust injustice, but you are getting away with it?"

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his tone.

with his current strength.

In the eyes of Kares, this hint of ferocity was like the feeling of a monstrous sea beast pressing down on him, leaving him breathless.

The surging pressure on his face made his hands and feet weaken, and his clothes were soaked in cold sweat in an instant.

This was the first time in his life that he had seen someone with such terrifying power.

This also made him feel like, 'If I don't tell the truth today, he will definitely kill me.'

"Gudong-"

Kares swallowed hard.

He no longer hesitated, but started from his acquaintance with Dadalia.

"About a month's money."

"We received a commission, and it was suspected that someone was violently collecting debts."

“Although it’s still wrong not to owe money, violent collection is even more illegal.”

"And the client stated that he has a strong willingness to repay."

"But to be cautious, I did not accept the commission immediately. Instead, I went to conduct an on-site inspection."

"Then I discovered that that group of people was actually another group of loan lenders."

"My so-called 'client' borrowed a large sum of money from Northland Bank and then lent it to others at a higher interest rate."

"However, as the repayment date approached, the family that lent him the loan ran into difficulties and was unable to repay the money on time."

"Facing the debt collection from Beiguo Bank, he harassed the borrower day and night, and at the same time invited our Rose Thorn Club, hoping that we could help him block the debt collector from Beiguo Bank."

Kares hasn't finished speaking yet.

Lin Feng interrupted him: "Stop, let's get to the point. I want to know what you have committed. Why is Dadalia willing to help you?"

The words were about to come out but he was choked back.

Kares shook his head helplessly and sighed: "Have you heard of Lex?"

"Leshit, what is this?"

Of course Lin Feng had never heard of this thing.

But what does this thing have to do with Dadalia's arrest?
"It's Lex."

Kares corrected Lin Feng's pronunciation and continued: "This is a new type of drink that can make people excited, happy, and ecstatic. It has been popular in Fontaine City for a long time."

Carres's description is not much;
But just by saying that it can make people feel ecstatic, Lin Feng knows what this thing is.

"It's the same thing as Muxu pollen."

After explaining to Youla, Lin Feng asked seriously: "You sell this kind of thing?"

"No no no."

Looking at Lin Feng's expression, which was faster than flipping through a book, Kares didn't have time to figure out what Wuxu Pollen was, and quickly waved his hand and said: "I found the person who sells this thing."

Lin Feng's expression suddenly turned from gloomy to clear.

At the same time, he also knew why Dadalia helped Kares.

Because Lexi is a thing with the same nature as Wuxu Pollen, which is extremely disgusting in Lin Feng's values.

Dadalia also had the same strong aversion to this thing as he did.

So when he encounters someone selling this thing, he will definitely help Kares.

"After Lex became popular, I immediately announced a complete ban on the sale of this drink in Baisong Town, and launched an investigation into the gang behind it."

"It didn't take long for me to find the clues."

"What's even more shocking is that the murderer behind the scenes is involved in the serial disappearance of girls, and may even be the real murderer."

"This discovery shocked me."

"However, as I continued to track them down, I suddenly discovered that their next target was my daughter Navia."

Speaking of which.

Lin Feng suddenly said: "Revenge!"

"may be."

Kares sighed: "My investigation angered those behind the scenes."

"So I publicly announced that I had the key criminal evidence of the gang behind the scenes, and informed some people in the gang, hoping to force them to give up attacking Navia."

"I also found an insider who discovered the conscience."

"But just when we were about to exchange information, someone suddenly appeared and shot Jacques. I took his gun and killed the murderer."

"But, but, the murderer, after I killed him, he dissolved, mixed in the water, and disappeared without a trace."

"So in the eyes of the guards who came, I became the real murderer with a gun in my hand."

"I know."

"This is the warning that person gave me. If I expose him, he will make Navia become like that."

"In order to protect Navia, I, I chose to participate in the duel. As long as I die, Navia will be the new president. With such an identity, that person will not be able to take action against Navia."

"However, just when I stepped onto the duel field, Mr. Dadalia stood in front of me."

Kares paused and sighed: "He said that I can't die until the man behind selling music everywhere is found out."
