Chapter 370： : Nightmare of a girl, 1 night at the castle (1/2)
Just when there was a pleasant dinner in the castle.
The periphery of the central area is on the street facing the area near the entrance.
A scout wearing a black robe with two short swords on his waist was staring at the castle intently.
It seems to be observing something, and it seems to be waiting for something.
His behavior looks suspicious, but it has long been commonplace for patrolling guards.
There are many foreigners who come to Bosbon for the first time like this one who has never seen the market.
Especially during this period of time, there are more and more people like this.
Many people also wandered around nearby with private arms ranging from a few to a dozen people.
The sheriff in charge of the inner guard of Bangcheng also specifically asked Baron Bezos for instructions.
The order was to send someone to follow up and investigate secretly.
For these people entering Bangcheng, as long as they don't step into the red line.
Even though it is almost 2 o'clock in the morning, there are still passers-by on the street.
Some of them were drunk and drunk, staggering on the street.
Until the brain can no longer withstand the stimulation of alcohol, it caused a vomiting reaction, and fell to the side of the road to throw up a lot.
At this time, an intimate Bangcheng Army patrol will come up to carry the alcoholic away.
Bosbon is the only state city within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.
It is also the real gold-selling cave in this area.
Even those gangsters and gangsters who want to have fun eventually have to find a way to get into the city.
In the wilderness, the money is dung, and only in the state can they be converted into value.
Therefore, the patrol of the Bangcheng Army has already had a complete set of procedures for how to deal with drunken people at night.
These drunks will be taken to a tightly guarded small building near the central area.
There are sobering rooms in it, and all the drunks will be held in solitary confinement.
Prevent trouble and wait for them to sober up.
On the street, where sour and foul vomit was vomited, someone came to clean it five or six minutes after the drunkard was taken away.
Wait until the next morning, after the alcoholic soaks up, he will pay a cleaning fee of 50 dinars.
If you can't pay this fee, you can also choose to work for two months in those farms and orchards under the jurisdiction of Bangcheng.
The above are the measures taken by Bosbon against those alcoholics.
As for situations such as fighting, eating overlord’s meal, overlord’s female ticket, stealing, and robbery.
There are other ways to deal with it.
The total amount of fines collected by the state city alone can reach hundreds of thousands of dinars each year.
Soon after the vomit was cleared, another patrolling Bangcheng army passed by this street just right.
All the soldiers on patrol looked forward meticulously, only the Tier 3 dragonborn swordsman who led the team deliberately glanced at the black robe scout.
And the black-robed scout also looked at him, and raised his eyes lightly, giving him a vague look.
The eye contact between the two took place in an instant.
Immediately, the black robe scout's figure moved, and he got into a corner of a house.
”Peide, take them on patrol.”
”I'll go and make it easier.”
The third-order dragonborn swordsman stopped.
Pointing to a small corner not far from the roadside, he said to his deputy.
In each patrol team, there is a third-order fighter leading eleven second-order fighters.
His deputy was a Tier 2 Avalon light infantry.
”Go ahead, Lord Milne, don't be seen by the inspectors.”
”You can be fined anywhere.”
His deputy nodded and whispered.
The Tier 3 dragonborn swordsman named Milne smiled.
Reached out and touched the helmeted head of his deputy.
Then he hurried back and ran into the alley.
The black scout was waiting.
”Milne, I'm waiting for you.”
”Master Evans is waiting for me to report the situation to him.”
The black robe scout whispered.
”Just now those people found some items left by Master Bezos when he was young.”
”Now I have become a guest of Lord Bezos.”
”There is a dinner party in the castle.”
Milne said in a hurry, and at the same time stretched out his right hand.
After listening to him, the black robe scout took out a small purse from his arms and gently threw it into Milne's hand.
”I understand. I will report these situations to Lord Evans.”
”You go back to the team, don't show your feet.”
After the black robe scout finished speaking, his figure began to fade.
He entered the stealth state directly, and quickly escaped along the shadows.
On the spot, Tier 3 Dragonborn Swordsman Milne didn't say anything, just squeezed the money bag in his hand.
Then it was stuffed into the gap between the waist of the battle armor.
Without changing his face, he walked out of the alley.
Inside the castle, in the banquet hall on the second floor.
Those immortal lancers are eating and drinking intently.
Your lord is responsible for chatting nonsense, and they are responsible for opening their belly.
Luna and Vereesa only ate very little meat, and they made various salads and vegetarian food as their staple food.
This is because their eating habits are different from those of ordinary humans.
The two of them were eating, bringing their heads together, chatting in a low voice.
The atmosphere of the dinner is not serious, on the contrary it is very relaxed.
Especially Zong Shen has become a well-deserved protagonist in this dinner.
Both Baron Bezos and Miss Stephen became his loyal audience.
After the chat was over, Baron Bezos actually increased his favorability by 10 points.
In just two or three hours, his favorability for Zong Shen reached 75 points.
And Miss Stephen's favorability for Zong Shen also reached 35 points.
Zong Shen's knowledge and talkativeness have thoroughly consolidated his personality as a young explorer.
At this time the dinner has also come to an end.
Everyone has a round belly.
Zong Shen happily mentioned about going to Evans' manor for an appointment tomorrow afternoon.
Unexpectedly, after hearing the words, Baron Bezos narrowed his smile for the first time and frowned slightly.
”Dear brother Zongshen.”
”That guy Evans is not a good person.”
After saying a few words, Bezos paused.
He looked at Vereesa and Luna.
”That guy is extremely lecherous.”
”This is no secret in the upper circles of Bosbon.”
”He is very enthusiastic about Hunting Yan.”
”It's just an out-and-out lewd stick.”
”A savage who only thinks with his lower body.”
”And that guy did a lot of dirty things.”
”I have always suspected that the so-called ”Night Demon” in Bangcheng for nearly two decades is also related to him.”
”It's a pity that I didn't get direct evidence.”
Baron Bezos was extremely contemptuous of Evans.
For men, **** is not something embarrassing.
But that guy is different, he is like a boar in love.
Bosbon and even all the women in the giant city of Rentax have a leg with him.
In addition to the female branch, those beautiful and good families are also his targets.
It happened that his place was still the same as Flammulina velutipes, at most three minutes to end the fight.
I have to say that I am big and let others bear it.
These things are no secret to Baron Bezos.
He and Evans rarely interact.
Hearing what Baron Bezos said, Zong Shen also turned his head and glanced at Luna and Vereesa.
He naturally understands that Evans is not a good thing, but he also shoulders the task of helping Master Mars retrieve the wealth left by his father's generation.
I still have to go to the manor at noon tomorrow.
”Master Bezos, I understand.”
”But I still have to go there at noon tomorrow.”
”By the way, my lord, what do you mean by night demon?”
Zong Shen said slowly, did not elaborate on any reason, but asked him with some doubts.
Bezos looked at Zong Shen, understood that he seemed to have his own purpose, and nodded.
”I see, it's a pity that I have a gap with him.”
”Can't accompany you to the appointment.”
”For him, we can't use tough methods.”
”Because the family behind him also has a lot of influence.”
”Although his ancestors are emerging aristocrats, they have the same status as hereditary aristocrats.”
”You better not bring your two female subordinates.”
Baron Bezos said bitterly, no one knows how deep this pool of Bosbon is better than him.
He took a sip from the wine glass, moistened his throat, and continued.
”As for the Night Demon, this is a nickname.”
”It's a nightmare that has haunted the Bosbon girls for twenty years.”
”In the past two decades, there have been 176 cases of missing young women in Bangcheng and nearby villages.”
”This is still a number recorded by the Bangcheng Public Security Department.”
”As for those that have not been recorded, there should actually be many more.”
”The methods used in these disappearance cases are very consistent, that is, they are forced into the room in the early hours of midnight and taken away.”
”There is no sign of resistance at the scene, and the other party has never killed anyone.”
”The nature of these cases is not the same as the looting of villages.”
”At that time, there were clues to Evans, and we also sent people to search his manor.”
”There are even several caravans that he set up in nearby villages.”
”Although some suspicious traces were found, in the end no direct evidence was found.”
”In the past few years, it once caused panic among all state residents.”
”At that time, everyone called the mysterious figure who specializes in kidnapping young women the night demon.”
Baron Bezos's tone gradually became serious.
Obviously for him, this is a behavior that makes him extremely disgusted.
”Is there anything like this?”
After hearing what Bezos said, Zong Shen felt a little weird.
The guy Evans is not short of money, as a descendant of the emerging aristocracy.
He also owns his own caravan and industry.
Live in a luxurious manor.
Even the fresh seafood from the East China Sea can be obtained.
Can this kind of criminals use this kind of indiscriminate means?
This is something Zong Shen cannot understand.
But Baron Bezos is absolutely impossible to deceive him on this kind of thing.
Maybe that guy really has some kind of perverted hobby that is beyond the normal category.
Combined with his own observations and Luna's report, Evans is indeed very likely to be a pervert with a human-faced animal mind.
Zong Shen thought of this, and by the way told Bezos that Evans needed a lot of Requiem.
According to the previous guide, Evans has extremely stubborn insomnia symptoms.
These requiems are all used to make sleeping pills soup.
But there are still many doubts.
After Zong Shen finished speaking, Baron Bezos did not rush to answer.
He seems to have made a decision, there is something very important to tell Zong Shen.
”Papa Papa”
Baron Bezos stretched out his hand and patted, and said to the butler and maid waiting on the side.
”Everyone go out.”
Upon hearing this, the maids and butlers immediately put down the bottles and cutlery in their hands.
All left the banquet hall within half a minute.
And closed the heavy wooden sliding door of the banquet hall.
After the clearing, only Zong Shen and his soldiers were left in the banquet hall.
And Bezos' daughter Steven.
I saw Baron Bezos pick up a clean napkin on the table and wipe the corners of his mouth.
”Brother Zong Shen, I will tell you something next.”
”Evans's full name is Evans Haywood, and he relies on the new aristocratic Haywood family.”
”His ancestors obtained outstanding military exploits in the Kingdom War and were named marquis.”
”So the Haywood family was established.”
”Their family is not only active in the giant city of Lentax, but also in the giant city of The Hague in the east.”
”Back then, Evans' fathers came to Bosbon, relying on the strength of the family to take advantage of it, and soon gained a foothold in the city.”
”They are good at exploiting loopholes in the laws of the kingdom.”
”The entire Haywood family is a bunch of borers.”
He paused for a while, and took a few deep breaths.
The continuous and fast-paced talk made his breathing a little bit short.
Zong Shen listened carefully.
Baron Bezos soon recovered his breathing and continued.
”As for the Requiem thing, I don't know the hidden story.”
”One thing that can be confirmed is that he started to have insomnia symptoms more than 20 years ago.”
”At that time, he had called many doctors.”
”Including some witch doctors and priests of the Holy Light who are proficient in nature.”
”A lot of methods were used, but they couldn't cure him.”
”In the end, it was discovered that only the sleeping medicine soup made from requiem can make him fall asleep.”
”So he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build two professional drying blast furnaces in his manor.”
”Also hired a pharmacist and apprentice pharmacist from the giant city of Lentax to serve him exclusively.”
After listening to the words of Baron Bezos, based on Zong Shen's years of experience in criticizing, it can basically be concluded that Evans has a big problem.
As for whether Requiem is connected, he is not sure yet.
This time he combined the known information and started asking questions again to the strategy module.
The strategy module also has its own limitations, just like in the case of active questioning, it will only give limited answers based on what Zong Shen knows.
Otherwise, before the battle of Oduo Village, Zong Shen would be able to insight into those situations in advance.
But even so, the strategy tips are still very helpful to Zong Shen.
As long as the extra information is connected together, he will be able to grasp the truth.
”For Evans, is there any other use for Requiem besides being a sleeping pill?”
”Is the Night Demon mentioned by Bezos related to him?”
Most of the requiem was made into sleeping medicine soup by him, and a small part of the requiem was made into requiem powder by him. He is indeed the so-called night monster, which is also the reason for his insomnia. This The guy is similar to you, but not as lucky as you
Zong Shen thought of the guide after reading the tips.
According to the prompt, Evans was already the notorious ”Night Demon”.
The only thing he couldn't understand was the last sentence.
”This guy is similar to you, but not as lucky as you.”
Zong Shen pondered this sentence, the more he thought about it, the more it was wrong.
He admitted that he was an old critic.
But he swears by his seven-inch big eagle, that there is absolutely no nasty and obscene hobby for someone in his clan!
”What do you mean? Why do you say he is the same as me?”
”Are you saying I am Enoki mushroom?”
Zong Shen couldn't help asking in his heart.
If the strategy module had an entity, Zong Shen could not wait to fight it directly.
Well, the similarity is that you have both got the Demon Soul
The golden prompt subtitles appeared again, and Zong Shen seemed to see the helplessness of the strategy module.
”Devil's soul?”
”Night Demon”
”I seem to understand something.”
Zong Shen stared at the tabletop blankly, and walked on his own.
After connecting the clues of Requiem, Lecher, Night Demon, and Manor.
He understood everything in an instant.
By chance, it really made him run into a big asshole.
Seeing Zong Shen looking down and thinking, Baron Bezos did not bother him.
He waited until Zong Shen recovered before he spoke again.
”Brother Zong Shen, if you insist on going to the appointment.”
”Then I have one thing I want to ask you.”
As Baron Bezos spoke, a task reminder appeared in front of Zong Shen.
Good guy, can this all dig out tasks?
Baron Chebman, Bezos, invites you to a mission
accept
Refuse
This kind of task with a reminder from the lord system is very safe and reliable.
At least so far, Zong Shen has encountered tasks like this.
He was already an old fritters, and decisively chose to accept it.
”Sir, what's the matter, please tell me straight.”
”I guess you must want me to investigate some clues about the Night Demon in Evans' Manor.”
Zong Shen took the initiative to say, guiding Bezos to enter the topic as soon as possible.
Baron Bezos nodded when he heard the words, and a smile appeared on his face again.
Because he discovered that Zong Shen could actually guess his thoughts.
What a clever and witty young man.
”Yes, I want you to take advantage of the opportunity to go to the banquet.”
”Check it out inside his manor.”
”In the past two years, the Night Demon has been somewhat restrained.”
”And the guy Evans has become more superficial.”
”I have noticed that he is not a day or two.”
”That guy bought some of the low- and middle-level officers in the state army.”
”He thought I didn't know, but I was just not as good at calculations as ordinary nobles.
”But I am not stupid, otherwise Bosbon will not be prosperous and stable.”
As Baron Bezos spoke, there was a faint sneer on his face.
”Because of the expedition that year, too many Bangcheng troops were damaged.”
”This is my stain, and it is also the root cause of my inability to be promoted to Viscount.”
”Bosbon is not the most prosperous state city controlled by the family at the time.”
”I took over, Bosbon is completely different from now.”
”By the standards of the time, Bosbon could only be regarded as the last in the state.”
”But in less than three decades, Bosbon's urban area has expanded by a third.”
”The permanent resident population has doubled, and Bangcheng's fiscal revenue and material reserves have doubled several times.”
”Even the scale of the state army and the scale of the city defense have tripled!”
Baron Bezos said proudly.
In this long period of nearly thirty years, he never went to explore again.
All my thoughts were spent on the construction of the state city.
He is using actual actions to prove that he is not a fool who only knows about adventure.
Unfortunately, this is useless.
Although under the protection of the family, he can give full play to his talents.
Safely guard his foundation in Bosbang.
But just as it is difficult for ordinary people to cross class and become aristocrat.
