Chapter 12

After about a few minutes, and it seemed as long as a century, the black skin on Allen's back gradually turned red, revealing his scarlet flesh. Seeing that the black impurities had disappeared, the woman held her hand, and white mist Disappeared, white jade fingers spread out slowly, a light blue water polo the size of a cherry appeared in the palm of the hand, and continued to mutter, the water polo continued to expand at a speed visible to the naked eye, until it was the size of an apple, and then from the woman The palm of his hand slowly floated to Alan's wound, and every time he passed, the scarlet flesh disappeared, replaced by white and tender skin, intact.

Aphra forgot the pain in her arm, and Alan's injury, and there was only one thought in her mind: amazing magic, so great...

It wasn't until the sound of tearing the cloth that she woke up. She looked up and found that the owner of the back just now—a middle-aged man with a beard had already picked up the sleeping Allen.And the glamorous woman who was treating Allen just now was fighting with her sleeve with a dagger.

"You're hurt." Facing her fiery eyes, the woman was as simple as ever.

During the period when the woman in blue was treating Aphra's wound, the old Marquis Andrew got the news from somewhere and brought a large team of people. After making sure that the two children were not in danger of life, they returned home under the protection of the large force.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, after confirming that Allen was fine and only needed to recuperate for a month, after repeatedly assuring the mother and daughter who were crying like tears that she was fine, Aphra, the bearded man and the beautiful magician entered the The study of the old Marquis.

"This is Luke, a level 9 swordsman, and this is Anna, a level 3 water magician. After you told me what you overheard that day, I arranged for them to follow you secretly." Andrew took the lead in explaining why the two met today. Appear.

"Hello, Your Excellency Luke, thank you!"

"Hi, Anna, thank you!"

"Young Patriarch, you are welcome, this is what I should do." It was Luke who scratched his head honestly.

"Hi, Young Patriarch, what is your duty?" Belle Anna answered concisely as always.

"Luke, take my token and go to the secret group Barus to investigate this matter thoroughly.

"Anna, go to Skokie and ask him to arrange a group of guards in Rogge Mansion.

"Yes." The two retreated together, and there was a sound of closing the door.

Sighing, he hugged Aphra and opened her sleeves.

"Son, you were shocked today..."

With the majestic expression removed, he is no longer the powerful and powerful Cadias, but an ordinary old man, and some of them are just worried about the safety of their children.

Seeing the old man's face full of self-blame, worry, and sadness, Aphra felt warm in her heart. It's good to be alive. Only by living can I see so many people who love me, and I can love them.I have been in this time and space for nearly half a year. Although I have always accepted their kindness to me, I have never gotten rid of the mentality of a bystander. I always feel that I am a passerby, so I have accepted the things of practicing martial arts and taking over the family, but I have not tried my best.When Alan pounced on her, she really couldn't think of where the courage of the usually timid Alan came from, but she suddenly found the meaning of existence in this time and space, and found her own roots.

A smile like a lotus flower bloomed on the corner of Afra's mouth: "Grandpa, I'm fine."

Old Duke Andrew was stunned. A warm atmosphere permeated between the two of them. The grandparent and grandson rarely had such a peaceful moment.

It's a pity that both of them are very practical people, not to mention that there are still things that have not been resolved, so the atmosphere naturally didn't last long.

"Aphra, have you seen these two people before? Or have you encountered any strange people or things?"

After thinking about it, he hesitated for a moment: "No, but there is one thing I haven't told you. Last time I fell into the pond." After a moment of pause, "I was pushed down from behind."

"What? You didn't tell us about this kind of thing. What's going on in your head..."

Aphra rubbed her temples, and she knew that it must be the result of saying it. Grandpa would definitely nagging for a long time. She had just passed through it at the time, and she couldn't tell which people around her were sincerely good to her. I'm afraid that I accidentally entered the wolf's den, what if the people around me collude with this person!Afterwards, she was fine for a long time, and she gradually forgot about it. It was only when she met two masters who came to kill her today that she remembered it.After waiting for a while, the old Marquis finally finished speaking and returned to business.

"What kind of person would want to kill you all the time? He even sent a high-level swordsman and a high-level magician." After all, Aphra was just an ordinary child before the magic test, and she was found to have no elemental attributes that day. What is it? People would come to take the life of such a useless and harmless child, Andrew couldn't figure it out.

"Could it be the king?" After all, he was making up his own mind.

"No, I have already received the results of the investigation. The king intends to let you enter the palace to accompany the third prince when you are 5 years old. In fact, his favorite candidate was Ellie, but then I don't know where I got the news. I know. Earl Vian asked for marriage, so he turned his target to you." Earl Vian's proposal of marriage happened after she fell into the water, the time was wrong, if it wasn't the king, who could it be?

After thinking for a while, having no idea, Andrew could only take protective measures.

"Don't go out until you find out who the murderer is. Besides Luke and Anna, I will arrange two more people to protect you by your side. If there is any trouble in the future, you must tell me in time."

Aphra didn't say a word, she had a hunch that this potential enemy was very powerful, and her grandfather would not be able to find them.

Seeing that she kept her head down and said nothing, Andrew thought she was still worried: "Don't worry, everything has to do with grandpa."

Aphra, who had been silent for a long time, raised her head, her eyes flashed with a sharp and firm light, and said every word:
"I want to be stronger!"

Recently, Earl Rogge's mansion has been covered with dark clouds. Finally, the eldest son gradually recovered, but the young lady suddenly became critically ill.

On the night of the assassination, the maid found that ghosts and wolves were howling in the third lady's room in the middle of the night, and the frightened maid dragged a few sisters to go over to find out.Who would have known that this ghostly scream came from the mouth of our precious Third Miss. She couldn't sleep well, she kept turning over all night, and her little mouth never stopped, saying from time to time: "Don't kill me!" Help!" "Alan, run!" "Grandpa, help me!" and so on.

The maids also changed from fear at the beginning to deep sympathy, thinking to themselves, who would be willing to hit such a cute and well-behaved child hard, look how pitiful this child is.The last maid who was brave and full of sense of justice simply stayed in Miss San's room to accompany Miss San.Now, the maids who have been tossing and tossing for half a night can finally have a good rest.

Unexpectedly, as soon as everyone lay down under the quilt, there was a loud cry, this time it was not from the third lady, but from the maid who served her, so she hurriedly put on her clothes and got up, this cry The sound also woke up the Rogge couple who lived not far from Aphra.

The next day, everyone in Mocheng knew that the third lady of Rogge's family was sick last night.The reason is because of him, at about 5 o'clock in the morning, a carriage galloped away on the street late at night, and the sound of horseshoes spread far away, but less than half an hour later, the sound of horseshoes reminded again, this time it was not a car, but It was several carriages scurrying through the streets and alleys together, just like this all night long.The next day, a large group of Mocheng people with two panda eyes complained and asked everywhere what happened last night, so that everyone couldn't sleep because of the noise.

I don't know who got the news from where, but the broad masses of the people knew that it was the third young lady of Rogge's family who was assassinated yesterday. After returning to the mansion, she was very frightened. , So I rushed to ask the pharmacist overnight.

Unexpectedly, half an hour after taking the medicine, Miss San's fever not only did not subside, but became more and more serious.In the end, the old Marquis who was the most precious third lady was alarmed. When Marquis Andrew saw his beloved little granddaughter, her face was flushed, her breath was short of breath, and she kept talking in her sleep. He quickly asked the boy to invite the best pharmacists and therapists in the city.After knowing this situation, the resentment of Mocheng people turned into deep sympathy in an instant.

Last night, unlike the troublemakers in Rogge's family who turned their backs on their backs, in a dilapidated temple on the west side of Meaux, two men wearing black cloaks and black hats whose faces could not be seen entered the hall one after the other. No one was found, and then the leading man in black snapped the head of the statue lightly. The creaking sound was especially harsh in the silent night, and a big black hole suddenly appeared under the statue.

The two of them drilled in gently, and heard another creak, and the big hole disappeared, as if the scene just now was just an illusion, and the temple returned to calm.

Different from the dilapidated temple, there is a different world underground. After turning a corner, the destination is a hall with many small compartments beside it, just like a small courtyard.

In the center of the hall stood side by side a middle-aged man with an expressionless face and a coquettish man with a half-smile, and dozens of quiet men in black stood on both sides.

The leading man stepped over the crowd, and finally sat on the wide chair covered with fox fur at the far end of the hall, and the second man in black automatically stood behind him.After being silent for a while, he put his withered and yellow right hand on the armrest of the chair and propped up his chin. Then he lifted up a pale, gloomy, thin old face with prominent cheekbones. Calculating and vicious eyes were in the sunken eyes. , unwillingness, anger, etc. flashed one by one.

A hoarse, gloomy voice came into his ears.

"Master Selt is very angry! Why, can't you even deal with a 4-year-old child?"
