I'm not a loser in love from Dimensional Adventurer

"Because the impact of the murder of the Pope was too great, the members of the Tribunal jointly decided to postpone Count Albert's trial."

This news is not good for Vician. Even if he is in prison, the count will definitely use his network to bribe all the witnesses to reverse the final verdict.The longer time drags on, the more failure it will be for Wei Xi'an and the others.

The count was acquitted because he was not guilty?He didn't want to see this ending a second time.

"Okay, let the interrogation begin!"

Ivan Bell said this and pushed open the door. The blacksmith who had just woken up behind the door showed a puzzled look to them.

"We haven't opened the store yet. And I'm not planning to open the store today."

"We're not here to shop."

"Hey! What are you doing! Let me go, damn it, guards! Guards!!!"

Alice pretended not to hear the blacksmith's cry when he was taken away and tied to a chair. She watched in silence as Vician tied the rope skillfully.Ivan Bell and Caschia stood on both sides of the chair, one holding a sickle and the other holding a spear.

"This dagger came from your shop, right."

Visian took on the role of interrogation. He brought the dagger stained with blood and soil to Lid's eyes.Lid glanced down and said in a panic: "Yes, yes. I have indeed made such daggers. They are very sharp, aren't they?"

"It's indeed very sharp. It can even cut the Pope's neck easily."

Vician got straight to the point and said he didn't want to waste his time writing threats, and often the truth was the best threat.

Lid's pupils shrank significantly when he heard the pope. He must know something.

"Listen, tell us honestly who bought the dagger."

"And we won't tell anyone. We will catch the assassin who killed the Pope."

"So nothing will happen to you, you'll be safe and alive until the next morning."

"But if you don't say it now, then it won't be anyone else's turn to take action. After all, it's better for one more person to know about the assassination of the Pope than to have one less person know about it."

Visian tilted his head and motioned to his companions holding two weapons.After receiving the order, Ivan Bell and Caschia pressed the weapons in their hands forward, and the gleaming blade touched the blacksmith Lid's neck directly.

Lid felt that his neck had definitely been scratched. Even though he couldn't see the full range of the weapons of the two men, he could be sure that these weapons were extremely sharp based on the touch on their skin.

The sharp weapons showed no sign of moving away from his neck.

Lid realized that he would die if he didn't speak up.

"Good! Good! I say! I say!"

Lid pulled himself back hard and begged Vishian to let the two men stop.Wei Xi'an smiled with satisfaction and motioned to Alice who was playing with the weapons in the store.

"Okay, we're going to start questioning. Stop wandering around and come help quickly."

"I'm coming."

Alice moved four chairs, one for each person, and everyone sat in front of Lid and surrounded the city, which looked quite oppressive.

Blacksmith Lid was not let go. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and began to describe the pre-dawn transaction.

Chapter 28 Deal before dawn

[Lide Blacksmith Shop at three o'clock in the morning]

I worked very late last night and barely managed to finish my work in the early hours of the morning.I was tired, so I just fell on the bed and slept until the next morning.

I probably only lay there for less than half an hour when a rapid knock on the door woke me up.

Do you think any lunatic would come to the blacksmith shop in the middle of the night? ?But I met it.

I was so annoyed that I vowed in my heart that I would put a brand on the head of this guy who disturbed my rest.So I walked over, opened the door, and saw this guy standing in front of me.

The guy's face couldn't be seen clearly, and he was wearing a black cloak.As you all know, Ander is so dark before dawn that when I saw him, his eyes seemed to be floating in the air.

I was startled and wanted to close the door quickly, but the guy was like a boneless snake and slipped in through the crack in the door in the blink of an eye.

I reached over and grabbed the hammer on the counter, the one on your left against the wall, it's pretty big, isn't it?

I tried to threaten him to leave my blacksmith shop, but it was no use. He just watched me swing the big hammer.

I mentioned before that I worked late and my wrists were so sore.I waved for a moment but had to put it down before my wrist broke.

Only then did the man start talking to me.

"I need weapons."

His voice was honestly so harsh!It was like there was a piece of glass in his throat and there was a tiny person inside scratching at them with his fingernails.

After saying this, he stopped making any sound. While staring at me, he stretched out his bony fingers and pointed at the weapon on the wall, the one you have in your hands.

However, this dagger should be a pair. Where is the other one?

Ah, sorry, I'll go on.

Ahem, anyway I don't really want to sell to him because he looks too dangerous and I don't want to cause trouble.

But he suddenly came over and grabbed my arm with both hands.

I suddenly felt pain in my arm.

I don't know how to describe this feeling. I feel like something is swimming along my blood vessels, like the iron I melted is pouring into my blood vessels.

The liquid swirled around my body, and I started to feel uncomfortable all over.My body was hot and aching and I started screaming, probably at that point I agreed to the deal with him.

The man in the cloak stopped torturing me and threw me a big bag of gold coins. No kidding, it was really a big bag!

I gave him two brand new daggers and he left.

Then, I took the gold coins and went to the bar. I didn’t think anyone would know that I had reached a deal with him. I’m afraid I wouldn’t have anything to do with that person anymore. No one would know.So I went to the bar and got drunk to forget everything.

After this, it was you who found me.

No, that's all I have to say, you will keep me safe, right?If not I would be dead!That guy will definitely come back to me!

------

Blacksmith Lid recounted his pre-dawn transaction fluently, and Alice could imagine how strange the customer this blacksmith encountered was.Lid even felt that sensation when she described the strange thing happening in her body.

Hot and desperate, it's like there's an active volcano inside your body that's always on the verge of erupting. You can't get this thing out of your body, you can only endure the suffering.

In addition to the pain, she also began to realize that what they were looking for was not only a well-trained assassin, but that the assassin was also a possessor of strange abilities.

"You didn't see his face clearly."

"All I could see was his glowing eyes."

Lid shook his head, his hangover lessening a lot, and his consciousness coming back together.

He tried hard to recall all the details, but there was nothing. All he saw was the eyes of the guest.

Alice and her companions left the room for a moment, and they stood outside the blacksmith shop and began to discuss.

"We are looking for an assassin who has no face, glowing eyes, and strange abilities. Great, where should we find him?"

This is simply an impossible task. Should everyone wearing cloaks be arrested and interrogated?Or shake hands with everyone and see if you're going to explode?

"I wanted to see his arm. He said his arm was suddenly grabbed by the guy, right?"

"He must have been hit by blood magic, probably"

It was certainly a good idea, and Lid mentioned that there was something running through his veins.So who here knows the most about blood?

Of course Ivan Bell.

She gave a rough explanation about the types of blood magic, and Alice learned a lot from her. For example, blood magic can change the shape of blood, drain a person's blood and convert it into his own energy. Even the king Magic that allows court wizards to track blood owners is also a type of blood magic.

"Then I'll leave all the responsibility to you. Please, bring me some good news!"

Visian clasped his hands and prayed to heaven for Ivan Bell to have good luck.

The four of them returned to the room. They untied Lid and asked him to hold his hands upright.

There were two horrifying scratches on the inside of Lid's arm. It was extremely difficult to spot these scratches in the dim light.

They had to get very close to recognize that the scratches were made by human hands.

Caschia checked every part of the skin himself, but Ivan Bell, the mastermind of the proposal, was in some unusual condition.

Ivan Bell's attention was completely attracted by a small red line extending from the scratch.Ivan Bell tried not to pay attention to it, but every time her eyes intersected with the red line, she would feel that the line was a little longer.

This made Ivan Bell unable to concentrate. She felt that the sticky thread was extremely annoying, and she began to reach out and pull it out.

Ivan Bell tried several times, and the red thread managed to escape from her fingertips every time.

"Can you help me break this damn thread?"

"Line? Let me take a look? Well... there is no line here."

"It's right there, it's floating. It's red, don't you see it!"

Ivan Bell pointed in the air, and she kept reaching out to try to catch something, as if there was really an invisible thread floating in the wind.

"No" x3

No one can see the red line, except Ivan Bell.

In her eyes, the line grew longer and longer, passing through the wall and connecting to the outside of the house.

"This line seems to be connected to something."

Ivan Bell stared at the wall, her eyes focused on a point on the wall, and everyone looked over involuntarily.

Three people looked puzzled, and one person looked horrified.

"That's where he left."

"I remembered, he didn't leave through the door. He walked through the wall, like a ghost."

Lead finally found his tongue, and his whole body shivered. The first memory he wanted to forget was recalled.

"When he left, his cloak flew up. He had many hands, and those hands were bleeding, and they were all hidden under his cloak."

Chapter 29 The King’s Commission

"His cloak floated up, and then I saw it. I saw those bloody hands, all squeezed together, hidden under that cloak!"
