664 Sue (2/2)

Furthermore, that story of Knight Jorah really did arouse a bit of his curiosity.

”Still, before that, I have to settle the matter of these two troublemakers first!”

Fang Yuan thought and escorted both Maz and Rick to the town and found the previous town mayor.

”Ah, it's Luhn. Why have you all come here?”

The town mayor's name was Michule. Seeing the three of them, including Fang Yuan, come over, especially Maz's terrible state and his dagger, made a hint of astonishment flash past his muddy eyes.

”I want to report these two for plotting to murder the successor of a knight!” Fang Yuan instantly announced loudly.

”Plotting to murder a member of royalty? Where's the victim?”

Michule instantly jumped up, which was different from a free citizen's character.

”The victim is me!”

Fang Yuan pointed at himself.

Although he hasn't received the documents yet, the Dream Master could differentiate between truth and falsehood. He naturally knew that these two people didn't lie.

At this moment, he was doing nothing else other than borrowing the tiger's skin first.

”You… a knight's successor?”

Michule felt his brain become numb.

After all, Luhn, Maz, and Rick were originally three good friends. At this moment, it was already very shocking that he escorted both of them over here and reported a murder attempt.

Furthermore, Luhn even proclaimed himself as a horseman successor. This was even more surprising.

”Correct, I'm about to inherit the Jorah manor of the Shawshank leader!”

Fang Yuan spoke eloquently, and his tone possessed a great deal of audacity within it. ”These two were actually plotting to murder me in the forest. Just now, they were, once again, plotting a despicable conspiracy! They were planning to assassinate me a second time!”

”… I understand, guard!”

Michule looked at the dagger and called for two militia to first bring Maz down. ”No matter what, this is a case regarding an attempt to kill a free citizen. I will continue to investigate. And you, Luhn, I will verify the truth or falsity of this information, and before the outcome of the case has been confirmed, you cannot leave Blue Moon town!”

”Of course!” Fang Yuan promptly agreed.

Although he knew that, from today onwards, he would be monitored by the other citizens 80% of the time, it wasn't a problem for him at all.

His main goal was to throw these two people to the town mayor to settle whilst using the town hall as a channel to help him investigate the truth behind Knight Jorah successor.

Nevertheless, after the news has spread, will that vicious, manipulative person from behind the scenes still dare to continue with his evil plans?

Fang Yuan was very excited about this.

Of course, if he found out that everything was a mess and just a misunderstanding till the end, there would be nothing better to say, and he could just walk away.

After all, he isn't the real Luhn, and he had no sense of belonging to this identity.

What was more amazing was that Luhn's relatives and friends had already diminished to such an extent that he could be said to be free of all attachments, and he could go on an impromptu journey anytime he wanted.

”A horseman… Hehe…”

After returning to his wooden house, Fang Yuan sat cross-legged, and a cold smile emerged on his face. ”Originally, I didn't want to cause any trouble… but, instead, it became so complicated in quick succession… could it be that this is also the retaliation of this realm's subconscious?

”Since a disaster has arisen, simply avoiding it at all costs isn't a wise decision. I should proactively tackle the disaster to find a way to remedy it. It seems like… I should compete for the horseman position.”

That night, there were a lot of people who would definitely wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully.

…

In the town hall.

Michule wore a set of round spectacles and looked at the official documents under the oil lamp. After a long time, he took them off and rubbed his eyebrows.

In reality, Maz and Rick weren't powerful characters, and they didn't even need to be tortured—just scaring them would make them reveal everything.

All the details of the entire incident were already very clear.

Furthermore, he had even heard the news of Knight Jorah and knew about the unlucky demise of the other party.

Hence, it could be said that these two people had irrefutable evidence. A charge for plotting to murder a member of royalty was definitely sufficient enough to send them to the gallows.

But how can this incident be so simple?

Looking at these confessions, Michule simply wanted to kill them directly.

”The instigator of everything is actually the businessman, Owen? After all, he's a close friend of the baron… could it be that the baron is behind all of this?”

It was precisely because of this consideration that Michule was unable to quickly determine a solution.

Furthermore, he really wanted to escape these muddy waters and go as far as possible!

”Town mayor, Pastor Torello is here!”

At this moment, a servant knocked on the door and brought news of another uninvited guest.

”My God… he's not willing to wait for just one more night?”

Michule lamented, but he still immediately invited Torello over to the big hall with a fake smile plastered on his face. ”Pastor, your arrival is timely. Regarding your compensation, I've already ordered people to prepare…”

”Truthfully… I didn't come for the compensation!”

A slight grin hung from the corner of Torello's mouth. ”Instead, you, the town mayor, seemed to have encountered some trouble. How may I be of service to you?”
