Chapter 89 Am I Really A Gentle Person?
"It's not me, Don Juan," Salvatore couldn't help complaining. "It's too quiet here, isn't it?"
He just walked all the way from the gate, but he didn't find a living person.
Not to mention Annan and the player, not even the servants and housekeepers.
What's more, the whole manor is dark, and even the lights are not turned on...
From the entrance of the manor to the inside of the house, it was pitch black. Only the restaurant is lit.
Yes, there was only light in the room where Annan and the corpse were.
He felt in the dark, walked all the way in trepidation, and then pushed the restaurant away. He immediately found a puppet-like pale and quiet boy sitting under the dim light and a fresh corpse that had just died.
And Annan still looked at him without saying a word, with a weird smile on the corner of his mouth.
Those icy blue pupils made Salvatore's heart freeze instantly.
He felt like he was about to be frightened and the erosion deepened...
"You at least turn on the light? Are you saving fuel for the Viscount? Isn't the price of green fire expensive?"
Salvatore couldn't help but complain.
Under his death advice, Annan reluctantly turned on all the lights in the manor...
"I just don't want others to know that there is someone in this manor."
Annan sighed and explained patiently: "I have to stay here and watch the corpse, this is the most important evidence. But I don't want to, just watch the corpse, but let other important things in the manor disappear. fly……"
For example, things like cash, jewelry, or tokens.
Of course, Annan did not say this.
On the other hand, Salvatore was surprised: "What, didn't you really kill him?"
From this sentence, it can be seen that although Salvatore did not see through Annan's nesting doll, he had an inexplicable insight into some of his inner personality habits...
Annan just calmly patted the seat beside him, motioning Salvatore to sit beside him.
Then, he explained in a low voice: "It was indeed me who killed, but the problem is...
"He's a rotten believer."
Salvatore was stunned when he heard the words.
He slowly looked at Viscount Barbour, and his eyes gradually became enlightened.
"...That's it, I understand."
He immediately asked Annan, "Did you torture Alvin about something?"
He used to be called the Viscount, but now he is called Alvin.
Annan smiled silently and responded, "It seems that you knew something from the beginning. It's just that you didn't know he was a rotten man."
"That's natural. It's no secret that the Church of Roof is preparing to invade the kingdom. After all, His Majesty is so old... Or, when the life expectancy of each ruler is approaching, the members of the Church of Roof will not know where to jump out of it. , like a salesman.
"I just didn't expect that there could be their people among the nobles..."
Salvatore exclaimed.
Looking at his reaction, Annan had a guess in his heart.
Could it be that the Black Tower already knew about the plans of the Roof Church?
So Annan asked, "Then do you know which ceremony they plan to use?"
He started with Wang Zhan.
——In the end, the silly roe deer were really blown up.
"You mean the ceremony of 'killing many children', I know that too."
Salvatore replied cheerfully: "This seemingly abnormal succession war happened too suddenly. At the beginning we suspected that this might be part of or a precursor to some kind of ceremony, and the possible ceremony , the most likely is the 'multiple sons kill each other' this life-continuing ceremony.
"It's just that the intelligence department of the kingdom has never been able to find even a relevant person from the Church of the Robber, so there is no way to be sure... But Your Majesty is very smart,
I think he should have it in his own mind. "
Hearing this, Annan was silent for a moment.
... Salvatore, the honest boy, proved to Annan what it means to give in vain with practical actions.
Annan just asked a question casually, and the honest child leaked a bunch of information.
He can now easily analyze a bunch of heavyweight news from Salvatore's words...
Annan sighed: "Yes, the Viscount was indeed killed by me. But don't reveal this information for the time being."
"You don't need to say more, I understand."
Salvatore nodded slowly: "You are indeed a wise and kind person, Don Juan."
?
Wait, what do you know?
Annan was a little dazed.
But his face didn't move at all, just looked away silently.
Waiting for further explanation from Salvatore.
"After all, he is a viscount, and he is also a vassal of your grandfather. If he is killed by you, the official lord of the North Sea Territory and the direct descendant of the monarch, it means that he has carried a serious crime that could be sentenced to death.
"Then his grandson would immediately be a sinner and be put to death. And he... knew nothing, did nothing wrong. His only sin was being the grandson of Alvin Barber."
...Speaking of which, he does seem to have a grandson.
But didn't it burn to death?
Annan heard the words and asked, "Where is his grandson now?"
"Missionary school, I have already investigated."
Salvatore replied: "He usually lives in a parochial school and doesn't come home until the weekends. And that brings up another question...why was he sent to a parochial school?"
Annan nodded.
After making up for his common sense for a while, he already knew what Salvatore meant.
This is not to say that church schools are not good... At least the safety issue can be guaranteed. Church schools are even safer than noble mansions, after all, no one will try to attack the Church of the Righteous God.
However, children who have graduated from a church school can join the church directly through internal channels if they perform well. And skip the preparatory stage of doing chores as a deacon, and start directly as a priest—a full-fledged priest who can use divine arts.
When good classmates and friends all join the church and get a decent and stable job, it is not common for children to go out and find work alone.
Therefore, ordinary nobles, in order to prevent their children from joining the church when they become adults. Neither would allow them to enter a parochial school "to meet friends who don't fit their status." Instead, some excellent tutors will be invited for one-on-one tutoring.
But Viscount Ba is different.
He is willing to send his grandson to a church school to study... Many people also praised his devotion to Silver Jue.
——The problem is that Annan knows that Alvin Barber is not a believer of Silver Lord at all.
"This grandson of Viscount Ba should also be his sacrifice to the rotten. The same should be true of his two previous sons, which is why he can live so long... It is precisely because of this that he does not need to think about children at all. education, and he doesn't need to consider his friendship..."
Salvatore analyzed.
Old Alvin just had to think about "safety issues".
In other words, the freshness of the offering.
Salvatore looked at Annan with a somewhat complicated look: "No matter who you claim to have killed the Viscount, because I am here, there will be no difference in the handling of other subsequent matters.
"I can help you deliver this important information to the Black Tower, escort your witnesses and physical evidence, and testify for you... And according to the kingdom's law, you don't need to bear any responsibility for killing guilty nobles and priests. .
"The only difference is that the grandson of the Viscount Bart - the real innocent in this incident, is life or death. If you claim that the Viscount was killed by you, then whether he intends to murder the royal heir, touch the black hand The big crime of ascending the throne, or the 'minor crime' of actually trying to murder your lord and monarch, will cause his grandson to be sentenced to death...
"But if you claim that old Alvin was murdered. Then not only will his grandson not be convicted, but he will be the only surviving heir, lucky to get Roseburg. Ironically, he was originally only as a livestock, as a Living as a sacrifice is just a tool at all."
Salvatore sighed and murmured in a low voice, "You must be arguing for him.
"My feeling is right, you really are a gentle person..."
……Wait a moment?
Annan was a little stunned to hear his analysis.
Your analysis seems to make some sense?
Do I really think so in my heart?
—Stop, what did I think in the first place?
