Honkai Summoning

"Don't be nervous, it's me." The man on the opposite side with most of his face hidden in the darkness said, his voice was very young and his tone was very relaxed.

The familiar tone made Wyfred relax, and he secretly said in his heart: "Is it possible that he is from His Majesty, but this voice is a little strange."

As if in order for Wifred to recognize him, the man took a few steps forward, walked out of the shadows, and completely exposed himself in front of Wifred's gaze.

Before he said something familiar, as if he had said something to an old friend, Wyfred might have shot at this time.

But for now—Wavred just looked at the somewhat familiar face in confusion.

This face, he is indeed somewhat familiar, seems to have seen it somewhere, but can't remember it all at once.

"you are?"

Wyfred frowned and asked, is it really an acquaintance?

"Hey, you thought you would know me..." The young man in black took another step forward.

The icy smile on his face made Wifred's heart tighten suddenly, and the guy in front of him, he finally recognized who he was!

This person is the butler of Trandon - Sebastian!

Wyfred felt that this face was a little familiar, not because he had really seen the new relationship of the Wobbs family, but because he had seen his sketch portrait that was not very similar.

Wavered's hands behind his back were about to be drawn out, shooting or stabbing his sword.

It's a pity that it was a little late at this time, and Su Mo, who was less than one meter away from him, had already taken the lead in placing his footprints on Wavered's chest.

Because of the severe pain, both the gun and the sharp sword in his hand fell, and Wavered's body flew directly into the carriage, smashed through the door on the other side, and flew out again, rolling on the ground several times.

Endured the severe pain, trying to struggle to get up, someone stepped on his back, the housekeeper of the Wobbs family appeared in front of Wyfred and said in a smiling voice: "All I said it was me, don't be nervous, why didn't you listen?"

"It's a fart! Who knows you! Don't make everyone familiar, okay!" Wifred wanted to roar this sentence out, just like he usually does.

But the huge strength on his back and the pain in his chest made him unable to speak at all, and even he could only exhale but not inhale.

Fortunately, the other party didn't mean to kill him immediately, and after letting Wifred feel what it means to be suffocated, he let go.

Su Mo squatted down, looked at the face that was twisted from pain and covered in cold sweat and said, "My young master, I would like to invite Director Wifred to come. I don't think you will refuse it, right?"

"You guys, what do you want to do?" Wifred said through gritted teeth.

"What? Isn't this obvious? Revenge." Su Mo looked righteous.

"revenge?"

Wyfred's eyes widened, "What revenge, revenge for the Marquis of Wobbs, and what have you done these days?"

"Not just for the Marquis of Worbus, but also for Master Trandon himself. These days... it wasn't done by us, but by me, oh, that list was provided by Master Trandon. Yes." Su Mo said, staring into Wavered's eyes.

It's a pity that he couldn't see any special emotions in Wavered's eyes - sure enough, the panic in the eyes in the anime novels is deceptive.

It's a matter of panic and nervousness, you have to match your expression to see it.And now the expression on Wavered's face has long been "destroyed" because of the pain, and has no value at all.

The word "pain" was written all over his face.

"Vengeance, are you revenge? A bunch of lunatics, do you know what you're doing?" Wifred said.

"I am certain."

Su Mo didn't have much response to Wyfred's drinking question, and responded casually, "By the way, you are also on the list. But it belongs to the latter, and there is not much hatred, but your identity is not Great, Master Tranton really wants to know the truth about the death of his parents. Plus... as a child, he has to hold some grudges. You sent the sheriff several times to harass him, and he was very unhappy."

"Having said so much, do you think you will win?"

Wifred stared at Su Mo and sneered. Halfway through the laugh, it turned into a sound of pain. He felt that his ribs should have been kicked off by this bastard.

The only thing fortunate is that the broken rib should not have stabbed anywhere, and there will be no life-threatening.

"I know you're procrastinating..." Su Mo waved his hand and said indifferently, "Actually, I'm procrastinating too."

Hearing Su Mo's words, Wifred was shocked.

It's not without reason that he said so much nonsense despite the pain.As the director of the Public Security Bureau of the City of Thorns, he has sat in this position for ten years, and it is inevitable that he offends some people. How can there be no one to protect him?

However, this protection is secret. There are six shadow guards sent to him by Henry XI, and everyone is very skilled.

In the past ten years, Wavered has only met them three times, but they have saved them more than a dozen times.

Wavered believes that this time will be the same as before, and will be rescued by the shadow guards again - although this time should be the most dangerous and the closest to death.

"Well, actually I'm not stalling for time."

Su Mo said again, "I'm just waiting for someone. I'm bored to talk to you while I'm waiting. Okay, someone's here."

With that said, Su Mo stood up, and Wifred also heard footsteps and a little friction approaching from behind.

The footsteps stopped, followed by the figure of the heavy object falling to the ground. Wifred turned his head and saw a few familiar and unfamiliar faces - it was his shadow guard.

However, at this moment, these people have stopped breathing.

"Are there any omissions?" Su Mo asked Anuo and Seven Sins who came over.

"No." Arnold shook his head and smiled, "These people are a little bit more powerful than the average street punter, and they have a little value to be killed by me."

"Come on, it's as if you wouldn't kill without the value of being killed by you," Su Mo said.

Although Arnold's tone of speech is very Hong Kong style, he is still a devil in essence, and killing this kind of thing is simply an instinct in his bones.

Why don't you kill me because it's too weak to be worthy of being killed by me—that kind of thing can be heard as a story.

"Then what." Su Mo squatted down again, "I think everyone should be more straightforward. If you have something to say, just tell it directly. How about I give you a treat?"

Wavered closed his eyes and opened them again: "What do you want to know?"

"It's not too much. How much do you know about the disappearance of my young master, and the cause of death of the former Marquis of Wobbs." Su Mo said, "Although this place is secluded, it's not that no one will show up at all times. It depends on your performance. Can you drag the time until someone shows up, maybe it can save your life."

There was a gleam of survival in Wyfred's eyes, and he licked his chapped lips: "Okay..."

The next morning, a high-pitched shriek nearly pierced through most of the lower city.

This city of thorns, before recovering from the successive deaths of several nobles, fell into panic again.

The Sheriff's Office, Waverred, was found dead in the lower city, and the carriage next to it was violently damaged and the door fell.And the coachman who was supposed to be with Wavered was found in a small alley in Midtown and was quite comatose.

Countless people suddenly discovered that this prosperous city, the center of the empire, known as the City of Thorns, was much more dangerous than they thought.

Chapter 35 Downtown

Wavered's death seemed to be a sign, causing the three-handed group and gangsters in the lower city to become restless.

Fortunately, the nobles in Shangcheng are still as stable as Mount Tai.The reason for this, on the one hand, is that even if they have some fear in their hearts, they will not show it like ordinary people.

What is the nobility?The nobles are having a banquet at home, and the servants hurried over to report: "The big thing is bad, the mud legs outside have already hit the door!" The child hit the door" problem.

Even though their legs may have been frightened, they still have to act relaxed and calm - in the words of that kid from Tranton, this is the pride of the nobles.

On the other hand, those nobles may still be secretly rejoicing that Wifred, the loyal dog of the royal family, was finally beaten to death. Well done!Raise a toast to the good man who has benefited everyone.

Although Wyfred's death was astonishing, it was not a major event such as the discovery of the "New World" and the sudden death of the king.

In fact, if this guy hadn't caught up with the good times, he died after the Marquis of Monroe and several other nobles, forming a series.

Wavered's death was even less impactful than that of Marquis Wobbs.

The City of Thorns is still the prosperous imperial capital, but behind the prosperity, the undercurrent has become more and more obvious, and it seems to gradually form a chaotic vortex that will drag everyone into it.

As the creator of the undercurrent, Trandon also had some worry written on his face, looking at Su Mo and asking, "Will we do this..."

"What?" Su Mo asked.

"Too presumptuous?" After thinking for a while, Tranton couldn't find a suitable adjective, so he had to use "presumptuous" to describe it.

"No... We've been doing things in secret, isn't it very in line with the nobility's code of conduct?" Su Mo said, "Besides, young master, this is revenge, revenge will not kill people. Otherwise, you give up revenge and complete the contract directly. , I'd better go home early to sleep."

"Che, do you think I'll take advantage of you, the devil?" Tranton sneered, suppressing the confusion in his heart.

"Anyway, everyone is on their own." Su Mo said.

"Okay, don't say these are useless, how much useful information do you know from Wavered." Tranton brought the topic back to the right track.

As Su Mo said, Wavered did indeed have several not-so-small frictions with the Wobbs family.But that wasn't the main reason why he was listed as a "target of revenge" by Tranton.

Tranton regards him as an enemy. On the one hand, after his parents died, Wilfred's attitude of doing nothing, perfunctory, and even covering up.On the other hand, as the director of the Sheriff's Office, he can know some secrets that are much more than ordinary nobles.

"He doesn't know much, but it should be very useful." Su Mo said.

"About the person behind the island or the cause of my parents' death?" For Tranton, he was most concerned about these two things.

"All." Su Mo said an answer that made Tranton's heart beat faster.

After taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly, Tranton barely calmed down.

"As for the cause of death of your parents, although it has always been claimed that they were killed by a carriage, the real cause of death is not this. I think you should feel it, Master," Su Mo said.

Tranton nodded. The official cause of death of his parents was that he was hit by an out-of-control carriage that afternoon. After returning home that night, the two died.

But on that day, Tranton remembered very clearly that although his father and mother had some injuries, their movements were still strong, and they didn't look like two seriously injured people at all.

How could he wake up and die "severely" in his bedroom?

"Although there is no clear evidence, according to the results of the investigation, the cause of your parents' death is no different from the cause of death of the rest of the Wobbs family. The state after their death is almost exactly the same," said Su Mo.

"..."

Tranton's eyes widened, "How did they die?"

"Death without a cause." Su Mo said, "At least, the cause of their death cannot be detected with the current methods, but compared to being scared to death, I personally prefer poisoning."

"Poison?" Tranton muttered.

"By the way, if that Wyfred didn't lie, Marquis Monroe's death status is the same as that of the Wobbs family." Su Mo said.

"What did you say?" Tranton was stunned for a second.

"There is probably a master who can use poison, and he attacked Marquis of Monroe after almost annihilating Wobbs." Su Mo speculated.

"Find that person." Tranton gave an order decisively. As for how to find it, this kind of thing is not something he has to consider.

"And about that island."

Su Mo said, "Wyfred is not an insider, but he provided a very interesting clue. About Aldridge, how much do you know, Master?"

"I don't know," Tranton said. "What does he do?"

"The king of beggars in Xiacheng District - at least on the surface he is the boss of a group of beggars." Su Mo said.

"What's the use of this guy? Help us begging?" Tranton's tone was disdainful.
