"There's only one carriage, where does he live?" asked Job, frowning.

"A house in the North End is the home of the Seneca City-State Mutual Aid Alliance in Lunvinton. The attendant who was questioned replied loudly.

"Sure enough. Job's eyebrows raised, "You go at once, tell them, let them keep an eye on me, I can't let go for a moment, there can't be only one carriage."

"Yes. The attendant bowed and replied.

After a while, Jobs walked briskly into George's mansion and pushed open George's office to see George and Hodge sitting by the window talking.

"Job, you're just in time, is there any news?" Hodge asked, motioning for Jobe to sit down.

After Job's retinue said the words of his entourage, he couldn't help but sigh lightly and said, "Henry, this useless fellow, must have fallen into the hands of Woolledlindo now, maybe he has already poked out all the things that should be said and what should not be said."

George frowned, and he was talking to Hodge about Henry.

Hodge shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's all my fault for being too careless, I originally thought it was just a trivial matter, and besides, Henry's guy used to do this."

"It's a little too late to say anything, and my retinue looked through the records at the gates, and Wooleglindo had only entered the city with one carriage, and he, the coachman, was scarred, apparently the one that had been attacked. "What do you think we should do now?"

"Woolley Grindo has a lot of means, and besides, there is still some use for this Henry, so he must have hidden Henry." George frowned and said, "Scatter some people and go out, and look through the nearby villages and towns outside the city to see if there is anything abnormal, and in addition, find a reason to search the location of the Tongji Alliance."

Jobs pondered, sighed and nodded: "That's it, I'm afraid, Henry has been sent away by him, for example, to the city of Assyria......"

"Impossible." Hodge interrupted Job, "I've been prepared for this, I've long set up a garrison along the road, and it's impossible to send a big living person to Assyria quietly, not to mention, Henry's knowledge is limited and there is no evidence, and he might be able to be of some use in Lincington, and it's a waste to go to Assyria."

"Forget it, what's the use of just discussing here, let's do what we need to do first. George's eyes looked out the window, "Lord Kevin will be here in person in a few days, and we'd better get all of this done before he arrives." "

Send a few more men and kill that kid?" Hodge narrowed his eyes.

"Woolley Greendo must die. George's gaze was a little cold, "But he can't die in the city of Lunvinton, and when he returns, let him do it halfway, this time he can't miss again."

Job nodded, of course he knew that if Woolley was killed in the city of Lunvinton, it would have unpredictable consequences, because the fact that this kid had been identified as Connor's pawn, and the supporters behind Woolley Grindo were also a force to be reckoned with, and it was not wise to blatantly provoke them and make enemies of them, at least for now.

Where would Henry be?" Hodge frowned again.

The answer was that Henry was in the city of Lincington, and he was even half a day younger than Woolley - he was sent into the city by the Daishan boy hiding in the compartment of the carriage, and then sent straight to the Tongji Alliance's station in Lincington, because Woolley could not find a suitable place to place him for the time being.

At this time, Woolley stayed with Henry, and this was the first time he had interrogated Henry in the real sense since he captured him.

In fact, Woolley was not very interested in interrogating Henry, because he didn't think that he could get too much useful information from a small character like Henry, and he couldn't even catch up with Nivea, for example, this counter-ambush, Nivea notified him in advance to take precautions, otherwise it would not have been so smooth.

Under the light of the two oil lamps, Henry looked very haggard now, he was tied to a pole, his thin body wilted, as if the wind was blowing, and the face under the broad forehead covered by slightly curly brown hair was not only pale, but also looked much older, and the whole person was weak, and when he saw Woolley walk in, his eyes moved slightly, and his lips, which had been pursed into a line, were tightened even more.

"Henry, it seems that I have to say sorry to you first, you see, I don't have a good place to entertain you, so I can only grieve you for a few days. Wu Lai said with a smile, although the business of the Tongji Alliance has not yet completely gained a foothold in Lincwinton, but the location for intelligence collection has long been perfected, and the place where Henry is held was originally a large basement used to store vegetables and grains, but now it has become a place for the alliance to store valuables and coins.

Henry glanced at Woolley slowly and lowered his head.

"Henry, it seems that you are going to grit your teeth again today and say nothing?" Woolley frowned slightly, dragged a stool and sat opposite Henry.

Henry didn't even lift his head.

"You really impress me, I originally thought that someone like you who was pampered and treated would not have such hard bones. Wu Lai laughed and said, "Your performance is surprised, it's okay if you don't want to speak, I'll tell you."

Henry gritted his teeth, but remained silent.

"What about you, in fact, you are just a little minion, in addition to obeying orders, you also do some dirty work, make some extra money or something, such as sending news to the bandit group in Baiguo Town, and colluding with the bandits to rob the merchants, you have been a civil official in Yanmarsh Town for fifteen years, and you should have a lot of money, right?" Wu Lai asked.

"You're spewing blood. Henry couldn't help but blurt out, in fact, Wu Lay didn't wronged him at all, but Henry did it, and there was actually some shadow in his heart, and his fifteen years of career as an official and bandit obviously did not completely cover his shame, at least, he was very disgusted with others mentioning this.

"Whether it's blood spurting people or not, you know it in your own heart. Wu Lai sneered and said, "I won't talk about the rest, just say this time, you old boy went to Baiguo Town single-handedly to ask the bandits to ambush me, and you played quite horizontally, do you think you are doing it very secretly? Hmph, that's just your own opinion, otherwise, how could I catch you so easily, and kill Tulu's handful of dirty bandits by the way?"

Henry twisted his head to the side, and when he failed to escape, he had already guessed that he had been betrayed.

"Don't like to hear it? Okay, let's change the topic, why have you done so many shady things and amassed so much money?" Wu Lai asked, he was very silent for a while, and suddenly slapped his forehead, "By the way, you have to support your family, the woman who is following you in Salt Marsh Town right now is your legitimate wife, right?" You don't seem to like her very well, I heard that you have a wife who lives in this city of Lunvington, and I heard

that she is a lot younger than you, and she has a son and a daughter for you, a son is four years old, and a daughter is only a year old, it seems that you want to leave all the money to them, right?" "If you do this, then you will be so sorry for your wife in Salt Marsh, oh, look at my brain, and forget, you don't want to see her at all, it doesn't matter if she is or not, right?"

"I don't know what you're talking about. Henry said in a deep voice, but his heart was already worried, because he didn't know what Woolley would say or do next.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know, you're not deaf, you can hear. Woolley spread his hands, "A corrupt official like you who colludes with the bandits and fish, I will definitely pull back to Salt Marsh Town and be executed in public at the request of the townspeople, as for the property you looted, I will recover it in a lot, Henry, you just wait and see, your house in Londonton, I will confiscate it, all the things in it will be confiscated, I will drive your little wife and two sons into the street, and let them become insults. Spitting beggar, by the way, your little wife is young and beautiful, will you leave your son and daughter alone and find your own support?"

"Don't say it!" Henry was so angry that his chest was about to explode, although he knew that Woolley was deliberately stimulating himself, but he still couldn't contain his excitement, especially when Woolley mentioned that he was going to drive his little wife and a pair of children to the street to be beggars, his mind actually came up with the scene of the mother begging and humiliating on the street in rags.

"Of course I have to say!" Wu Laihu stood up suddenly, stretched out his hand and pointed at Henry, his voice suddenly doubled, "Henry, you have done so many hurtful things, you can't pay it back, I will let your family carry it for you!

"You want to kill me? Woolley shrugged, "There are many people who want to kill me, you are just a small character who is being used, I really don't care, but your pair of children seems to be the only father of you, of course, your little wife is expected to be able to ...... in the future

" "Shut up! you scoundrel!" Henry scolded as he twisted his body to break free of the rope, but where could he break free.

"Is it a scoundrel, you don't ...... you," Wu Lai was saying when a young man knocked on the door and walked in.

"Young Master, Lady Manqi has arrived. The young man bowed and said loudly.

Henry's heart was shocked, Woolley glanced at him with a smile, and asked the young man, "How old is Lady Manqi, and what does she look like?"

After a pause, the boy added, "She brought a housekeeper and a maid, and the housekeeper was holding a little girl, about a little over a year old." "

Tall, beautiful, oh, got it, tell her, I'll be there soon." Woolley glanced at the stunned Henry again and waved his hand.

The boy promised to leave, and Henry finally came to his senses, and after a little hesitation, he

asked, "What do you want, Woolley?" "I don't want to do anything, but since I have already caught you, as a rule, I have to try a trial, for example, to know who asked you to kill me, and why to kill me, of course, I don't expect you to know everything I want to ask, so I am now more interested in chatting with your little wife." Woolley smiled and walked towards the door.

Before he could take a few steps, Henry's voice came from behind him: "Wait! I know more than you think!"

You are not qualified to tell me the conditions, but if what you say is valuable, I can send them to a safe city, such as Seneca or Menia, and I will let them all take away what you earn for them, and I will give them an extra sum of money, but, Henry, you should guess, you have no way to live. "

Well, I know......" Henry couldn't help but sigh, of course he knew that Woolley wasn't trying to scare him.

"If you're ready, start talking. Woolley quietly breathed a sigh of relief and sat back in his chair.

......

The next morning, Woolley walked into George's office. Yesterday afternoon, not long after he had finished handing over his letter of request, he received a notice to meet George at this time, which made him feel a little surprised when he thought he would have to wait an extra day or two—when had the authorities in Levington been so efficient?

After exchanging courtesy greetings, Woolley sat down at the signal of George, who could not see the change in mood, and waited for George to speak.

George was waiting for Woolley to speak first, Woolley's visit to Lunvington City this time was his request, and the reason was to conduct face-to-face inquiries about some things that had happened in Salt Marsh Town recently, to put it bluntly, it was an accountability with the meaning of retribution, and it could even be understood as a high-level interrogation, once something was asked, the consequences could be very serious.

George chose to remain silent because he was hesitating whether he needed to hang out for a few more days.

Yesterday afternoon, when Woolley came to the Archon's residence to present his letter of request, Hodge's arrangement of one hundred and fifty North District garrisons turned the Tongji Alliance's London Vincent garrison upside down, including all the corners, including the basement. The wall has gone back and forth for a long time, but the result is naturally nothing, but was scolded by Wu Lai, who rushed back after hearing the news, the most speechless thing for those scolded generals is that this guy is holding a tiger tooth nameplate as a talisman, and at the same time scolding his grandson in front of hundreds of onlookers, and finally wants to force these more than 100 soldiers to restore the station to its original state.

For this kind of guy who is almost inseparable from the scoundrel, George's traditional approach has been to ignore it and change people to clean it up, but the Woolley in front of him must be ignored, at least until the person who can clean him up comes.

After sitting for a while and seeing that George was silent, Woolley simply stood up: "Archon George, if you don't think of

what to say for the time being, I'll come back tomorrow?" George was stunned, and said in his heart What you said, what is "not thought of for the time being", could it be that I did it on my temporary basis to let this kid come to Lincington?"

George frowned and glared at Woolley, and said in a tone of lesson, "You are no longer a student at the Civic Academy, you are the consul of Salt Marsh Town, and you must be measured.

Woolley grinned back in his chair, and then, nonchalantly, spread his hands: "Archon George, I'm already very measured. What

did he mean by that? Was he hinting at me something? Or was he just taking my words. George pondered as he said, "Some time ago, I received an accusation against you here, saying that you ......"

Woolley listened with a straight face, and somehow, a woman suddenly appeared in his mind - twenty years old, tall, with a small red mole on her eyebrows, delicate and lovely, very decisive.
