The order was given by the royal family, so, therefore, the wait did not last long.

Soon, the tavern owner, who was still in his pajamas, rushed to the scene under the directions of the guards. When the tavern owner passed through the corridor, everyone could clearly hear that he was panting.

But when the tavern owner arrived at the scene, the panting abruptly stopped. Mike looked cynically at the owner.

The owner’s face was completely drained of color.

He probably did not expect to see such a horrific scene. For ordinary people who ran small businesses in the city, the scene of the Princess’s death was more gruesome than any horror story.

The owner had completely forgotten to salute the Elven Queen and the Elven Princess.

Fortunately, the Elven Queen did not care about these details at the moment. She looked at the tavern owner, pointed at Mike, and said, “Do you know this person?”

Hearing the Elven Queen’s words, the tavern owner came back to his senses. He quickly looked at Mike, looked at Mike’s face carefully for a while, and revealed a look of recollection.

But no matter how hard he searched his memory bank, he could not remember the face of this human man. Helplessly, the tavern owner could only shake his head and say, “I don’t know him. I’ve never seen him before.”

This time, the Elven Queen revealed a suspicious expression towards Mike. The look she gave showed very obvious signs of distrust.

“If you said that you were sleeping in the tavern’s guest room, then how could the tavern owner not know you?”

However, Mike did not wait for them to ask questions and directly stared at the tavern owner.

“Think about it again!”

This sentence sounded very threatening, and the tavern owner was so frightened that his whole body trembled.

Within that time span, the tavern owner seemed to have thought of something. He was slightly stunned and then muttered, “It seems… that I have recalled an impression.”

General Osmond, who was at the side, patted the back of the tavern owner and said with his eyes wide open, “You don’t have to worry about his revenge. The Law of the Elf clan is your strongest backing.

“Just tell the truth.”

Mike glanced at Osmond and grumbled unhappily, “Hey! Have you forgotten that you found me in the hotel room just now?”

“That’s different. Now you’re asking him, it’s not your place to speak!”

Mike’s eyes twitched and he gritted his teeth as he glared at Osmond.

“Once I’m cleared of my crime, I’ll definitely have a good chat with you!”

Osmond snorted coldly. As a general, how could he be afraid of threats from others?

However, it was the first time he had seen someone who dared to threaten the Elven Queen so openly.

At this moment, the tavern owner let out a soft cry and hurriedly said, “I remember now, I have indeed seen him before!”

At this moment, everyone’s gaze turned to the tavern owner.

He pointed at Mike and said very quickly, “I didn’t recognize him just now because he wore a black cloak during the day and wrapped himself tightly, so I didn’t recognize him at the moment.

“However, I have an impression of his voice!

“And…”
