Before Lorraine finished speaking, Xue Ni reached out to cover his mouth, her eyes were in a rare calm state, and said, "I choose you."

After being separated from Lorraine for a while, now she stays by Lorraine's side again, especially in the past few days, Xue Ni can be said to be in a state of being close to Lorraine all the time.

The feelings Xue Ni expressed were a little calmer than before, not like the waves under the strong wind at the beginning, trying to cover Lorraine all at once.

But this does not mean that this relationship has begun to weaken. On the contrary, the short period of separation made Xueni think a lot, which is why she did those things and even wanted to take Lorraine away from the royal capital.

Compared with the almost paranoid wanting to prove himself in the past, Xueni now knows more clearly what she wants, which is Lorraine in front of her.

Xueni's expression surprised Lorraine a little, as if she had been educated by the child she had taken care of for a long time.

"The matter in the capital will come to fruition, don't worry too much," Lorraine said.

Hearing what Lorraine said, Xue Ni didn't say anything more, but stretched out her arms to hug Lorraine's waist, and lay quietly in his arms.

Seeing Lorraine's state today, Xue Ni didn't clamor for Lorraine to stay with her for a while, on the contrary, she hoped that he would go back to rest early.

After Lorraine returned to the mansion, Zeth also just returned to Lorraine's mansion.

Unlike Lorraine who rode in a carriage, Zeth ran back in the light rain all the way.

"Thank you." After taking the towel handed to him by the maid, Zeth said while panting, "The matter has been settled, and now we will wait for your situation."

From the eyes of the people in the Lorraine mansion, it is obvious that Zeth is not a nobleman, but seeing the way Lorraine gets along with him, they almost regard him as a friend of Lorraine.

"Do you think there's really nothing wrong with that medicine?" Lorraine asked.

"Are you worried about accidentally poisoning that guy named Liraya to death?" Zeth waved his hand, "Don't worry, as long as you control the amount, don't worry at all, but that guy may feel a little uncomfortable afterwards."

The discomfort Zes mentioned was naturally the feeling of toxins violently eroding the body, but even if the dosage of the medicine was controlled, it would still make people feel very painful.

"That's good." Lorraine breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the relationship between Xueni and Liraya is not very good, Lorraine still doesn't want to let Liraya really die for no reason.

"For someone who has never been stained with blood, it does feel a little delicate to do something that will affect other people's lives at once." Zeth began to wipe the water stains on his arms with a towel, and then said, "You just want to Well, just for whom and for what purpose are you doing this. Besides, that guy should be punished for doing that kind of thing.”

If someone else did what Liraya and Mkahn did, it might not be as simple as it is now.

Although Lorraine did this because he wanted to use him this time, if everything goes well, Lilaya can come out safely, which is not a big loss for him.

"Yeah." Lorraine nodded.

Things have come to this point, and it only makes sense to let it continue.

Chapter 22

suspect

Inside the damp and smelly iron fence, although the aisle outside was lit with candles, there was still no light to shine inside. In addition to the fall of night, if you didn't look closely, you might not be able to see the prisoners inside.

In the corner, Liraya was tightly clutching the bag that Lorraine had given him, and because of his hesitation, the bag had been wrinkled.

In the past few days, apart from Naba who has visited him a few times, there is only Lorraine.

Thinking of the stupid things she has committed, Liraya regrets again.

If it weren't for my temporary obsession, I wouldn't be like this at all.

The image I had built in front of others also disappeared, and everything was meaningless.

"I have disgraced the Gretel family."

After speaking, Liraya reached into the bag with her muddy hands, grabbed the contents, and stuffed it into her mouth.

I felt the pill followed by the saliva, and passed through the neck quickly in my swallowing.

Liraya leaned back and leaned against the damp wall, looking relieved.

"ended."

Liraya's words had just ended when suddenly pain began to spread from all over the body.

At first Liraya could hold back, but as the pain intensified, both arms and legs began to convulse, and even her fingers were twisted into strange shapes because of the pain.

"It's time to eat." The guard patted the iron bars, and when he was about to put down the food and leave, he felt that Liraya looked a little strange.

The guard continued to pat the iron fence and said, "What's the matter with you?"

I saw Liraya lying on the ground struggling constantly, looking in pain, trying to reach out to touch his neck, but his limbs were completely out of control.

"Hey, hello." The guard began to feel that something was wrong, and quickly took out the key on his body to open the iron gate.

The guard stepped forward and pushed Liraya, and found that his body was tense, as if someone had tied up all parts of his limbs, and then pulled him in different directions.

But this situation lasted only for a short while, and then Liraya's whole body relaxed, foaming at the mouth, and losing any breath.

The guard stretched out his hand tremblingly and touched Liraya's arm and nose, and then the look on his face became frightened.

"It's over, something happened." The guard got up and ran outside immediately.

Although Liraya is being imprisoned here now, let's not talk about how to punish him, but he was also a nobleman before, and now he died here inexplicably, and they couldn't explain it clearly.

Soon, the news of Liraya's accident was reported layer by layer, until the people of the Knights were alarmed.

"Where's Mukahn? Has something happened to him?" Gomos, led by the guard, walked quickly towards the inside, and the sound of armor colliding with each other kept echoing.

The incident between Liraya and Mkahn involved members of the Iog family, the Gretel family, and the Knights, so the Knights are responsible for this matter.

Although Gomos is young, he is also an outstanding person among his peers, and he had a pivotal position in the Knights long ago.

It has been rumored by the outside world that he is a good candidate to be the next leader of the Knights.

Also, many matters of the Knights are sometimes handed over to Germos.

"Nothing happened to Mkarn, he just seemed to be frightened."

The guard raised the lamp in his hand to illuminate the place where Mukaen was being held, and found him curled up in a corner and shivering.

Both he and Liraya were caught because they had unreasonable thoughts about Lil and adopted extreme methods.

Now Liraya, who was detained with him, died for no reason. Anyone who changed it might think that he would be the next one.

Seeing Mkarn's embarrassed look, Gemos frowned.

"Is this considered a member of the Knights?" Fimer, standing behind Gemos, showed a look of disgust.

As the younger sister of Gomos, she has been following Gomos to learn how to deal with things. In addition to gaining experience in dealing with various things, it is more convenient for her to adapt better after entering the Knights. .

For the Knights, honor and dignity are sometimes placed before their own lives, but what Mkahn has done and what he is doing now seems to no longer have these.

Gomos turned around, no longer cared about Mkahn, and stepped forward to check on Liraya who was out of breath.

Finally Golmos set his sights on the bag next to Liraya.

Golmos picked up the bag and sniffed it lightly, and could clearly smell a strange smell of medicine.

"Has anyone come to visit Liraya these days?" Gomos asked.

He can be sure that this thing definitely did not come from here.

"Come to see him?" The guard scratched his head and said, "The Second Highness came here before, and he also asked to see Liraya by name."

"Your Highness?" Gemos paused and immediately thought of Lorraine.

The knights obeyed the emperor's command, but never participated in the affairs between the royal family and the nobles, because for them, it was a waste of time.

However, in the past few days, from some news, I have indeed heard news about the Second Highness.

Some nobles seem to want to make him the new heir to the throne.

"It's the Second Highness who can use high-level magic." Fei Mo heard some rumors about Lorraine in the academy.

"Why did he do this?"

From Gomos's point of view, if Lorraine really wants to become the new heir to the throne with the support of other nobles, it is completely unreasonable to do such a thing at this time, which will only reduce the number of people who support him.

And he has never heard of any bad friction between Lorraine and Liraya.

For Lil again?

Gemos glanced at M'Kan not far away again. If this was really the case, M'Kan would be fine.

After thinking for a while, Gemos got up and quickly walked outside.

"Brother, where are you going?" Fimo trotted after Gemos.

"Go to His Highness's residence."

Instead of thinking about it here, it is better to ask directly in person in the past.And if it was really Lorraine who did it, he would also need to be punished accordingly.

On the other side, news of Liraya's accident spread quickly.

Oule, who was in the palace, was stunned when he heard the news, "Liraya is dead?"

Oulie didn't know whether to be happy or what. He was afraid that if the investigation of Liraya and Mukaen's matter continued, he would be involved, but now it seemed that he could breathe a sigh of relief.

But hearing that it was related to Lorraine, Oulie was also a little confused about what was going on.

Turning around and stroking the face of a sleeping Romon, the expression on Ole's face became gloomy, "That's fine, let him escape last time, but this time he was targeted by the Knights, let's see what he can do. As long as With him gone, no one can threaten you."

Chapter 23

knights come

In just one night, the news about Liraya came out, and everyone was surprised what happened.

Although the things Liraya did can be big or small, it is too strange to die for no reason before the corresponding sanctions are decided.

Even Lil and Leno were very surprised when they heard the news.

Early in the morning, Lorraine woke up and heard the news. Although these were done by herself, she thought that Liraya would hesitate a little bit. After all, without knowing it, she wanted to end her own life. Should it be said that he is determined, or that he really has no expectations of himself.

"Where are the Zeth people?" Lorraine asked the maid next to her.

"That friend of yours seems to be in the backyard."

The maids didn't know what was going on. When they got up early in the morning to work, they saw Zeth running to the backyard, looking very anxious.

After knowing where Zes was, Lorraine immediately went over and found Zes in a relatively hidden corner with his cloak covering his body.

But here, besides Zeth, there are two other figures.

"You're up." Zeth took off the cloak, revealing his face, "It looks like you should have heard the news."

Even Zeth had to admire the speed at which the news came out. In their perception, if something like this happened to an insignificant person, the news might not come out in two or three days.

But this time it was Liraya, who was a nobleman, and basically everyone knew about it in just one night.

"En." Lorraine nodded, and looked at the two people standing beside him, "These are my two friends, Parry and Mobu. I have to ask them to help me this time."

After being introduced by Zes, the two men covered by cloaks nodded towards Lorraine, which was regarded as saying hello to Lorraine.

Although the whole body is covered, it is not difficult to tell from the figure that they are a man and a woman.

Zeth didn't tell himself that he needed help before, but Lorraine was not surprised to see the two people in front of him now, because this time he was not going to do petty theft, and he was going to the noble's house Mansion.

If a problem arises, even people like Zes and others who have been hanging around the capital all year round will find it very difficult.

Zeth patted all over his body, reconfirmed that everything was ready, and then said to Lorraine, "Then let's go first."

"Please, if you are in danger, leave as soon as possible."

Zeth has helped him a lot these few times, even if this time the matter is unsuccessful, Lorraine doesn't really want Zeth to have an accident because of this.

"I understand." Zeth gave Lorraine a reassuring gesture, and then said to the person next to him, "Pari, let's go."

The man who couldn't see his face stepped forward, and stretched out a strong arm from under the black cloak to hug Zeth and another person.

He murmured a few words, and a not-so-big wind swept over him. He jumped up the wall behind him as if he was stepping on the wind, and then quickly jumped towards the distance.

Lorraine stretched out his hand to slightly block the incoming wind with his palm, and said, "Is it wind magic again?"

Seeing the user of wind magic again, Lorraine found that he had not seen the offensive nature of this type of magic yet, but in some other things, he increasingly felt that this type of magic was highly practical. . "

"The next step is to leave it to them."

I have already made a start, and I can only leave it to Zeth for the rest.

Or rather, it is the existence of Zeth that Lorraine can carry out this series of ideas.
