Chapter 857: News from the Waiter

After dinner, Able and Kant went back to their rooms, while Bandak needed to get his medicine, so he went down the stairs to the back kitchen on the first floor.

Able followed Kant closely behind, followed him into the guest room and closed the door.

Kant drank a lot of wine during the dinner, and his figure seemed a little shaky. Able hurriedly helped him sit down, handed the teapot and teacup, and said, "Your Highness, you seem to be drunk, drink some tea slowly." ”

"Thank you." Kant nodded in agreement, then took the teapot and teacup, and poured himself a cup of tea. Raise it to your lips and drink it slowly.

Able breathed a sigh of relief, sat down beside Kant, and spoke; "Your Highness, do you feel a little strange when Bandak arrived before dinner began?"

"Is it strange?" Kant raised an eyebrow and asked suspiciously.

"That's right," Abel nodded immediately, "we have great news today, and if it were the usual Bandak, we would have jumped to the ceiling in excitement." But his reaction was too cold. ”

"You say that, it seems a little," Kant nodded as he recalled, "or when Bandak comes back, let's ask him if something has happened?" ”

"Hmm." Able thought for a moment and nodded.

The two sat at the tea table and stayed quietly for a while. But he never heard a knock on Bandak's door.

"Abel, you've been watching every time Bandak has been drinking medicine lately, right?" Kant spoke.

"I saw him drink it once, and for the rest of the day, he went to get the medicine and drank it himself." Able responded, "But I have the impression that he drinks very quickly every time he drinks the medicine, why does he come back so slowly this time?" ”

"I think—" Before Kant could finish his sentence, there was a knock at the door.

"I'm back." Able stood up and said to Kant, then walked to the hallway, twisting the lock.

Unexpectedly, it was not Bandak standing outside the door, but the waiter who thought he was pale.

"Lord Abel, Lord Kant! Oh no! The waiter said in a trembling voice, "Lord Bandak has been poisoned." ”

"Poisoning?!" Able immediately pushed the waiter away and stood at the fence of the hallway and looked out into the lobby.

The lobby on the first floor was also in chaos at this time, and the waiters in the store gathered at the kitchen door in panic. 、

"Take me to see it." Able grabbed the attendant by the placket and commanded him.

"Yes, yes." The waiter nodded nervously and led Able downstairs.

As he reached the top of the stairs, Able suddenly remembered Kant, who was still indoors. He raised his head and looked at the door of the guest room: he was in a hurry before, so the door was still open, and there was no Kant in the entrance.

"Strange," Abel muttered silently.

His Majesty Kant should have known the news that Bandak had been poisoned and fell to the ground, so why didn't he react at all.

The information in my mind became a mess because of the involvement of this discovery. Able couldn't help but pause in place.

"Ae... What's wrong with you, Lord Ebel? The waiter, sensing Able's movements, turned around and asked nervously.

Able looked up from his contemplation, looked at the orc attendant with a frown, and saw that the other man's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, so he asked strangely, "What are you so nervous about?" ”

As he spoke, Able placed his right hand on the waiter's shoulder. The moment he touched the other party, he felt that the waiter's body was trembling.

"Because... Because... Banda... Master Gram fainted. The waiter shifted his gaze to Abel's arm and replied in a slurch.

"How did he faint, did you see that?" Able continued to ask. The grip on the shoulder was also a little stronger.

"I... I... I don't know, I'm just—" The waiter looked away and replied hesitantly.

Seeing this waiter, I couldn't say why for a long time. A silver light flashed in Abel's pupils, and he clapped his hands and said, "Bandak has fainted, I need to find a few more people to take care of him with me, I'll go to the soldier's room and ask first." Before we arrive, please call a carriage for us and send more men to watch over him. ”

"But this—" The waiter's expression became anxious.

Abel didn't pay any more attention to him, instead turning around and rushing towards the corridor on the third floor.

Upon reaching the third floor, Able knocked on the doors of each room, but received no response.

"What about the soldiers? Where did you get them? Able yelled at the waiter standing at the corner of the stairs.

The waiter came back to his senses, and when he saw Abel coming to his side, a look of horror appeared on his face, and he picked up his legs and ran.

Just as Able jumped down the stairs to chase after the man, he was stopped by a familiar voice.

"Abel?" Bandak stood at the door of the restaurant on the second floor, and called out as he watched Abel fly past his eyes.

"Bandak?" Able immediately stopped, walked up to Bandak, and said, "The waiters at this inn are really not honest, they just wanted to use the news that you were poisoned to deceive me, what about the soldiers?" Is it with you? ”

"The soldiers are in the cafeteria." Bandak didn't react to the meaning of Abel's words for a moment, and said suspiciously: "The waiter in the shop said that you and Your Majesty let us stay here and not go out." However, when all the dishes have been eaten and you still don't show up at the restaurant, I can't help but come out and find out. ”

"It's good that you came out, otherwise I wouldn't have thought that these guys were trapped here." Able took a long breath and said, "The people in the inn should be trying to take advantage of your inattention and find an opportunity to ambush me and Your Highness. and we will threaten you with our lives. ”

After meeting with Bandak, Able had already sorted out the general logic, and his tone at this time was a little angry and dissatisfied.

"Why did the innkeepers do this to us?" Bandak's eyes widened slightly, and he asked, "Also, what about Your Highness?" ”

"I don't know what they think. His Highness had traveled alone with the innkeeper before. If they're members of the Dark Side and want us to surrender, then they should do it. His Highness didn't follow me out, I don't know if I found out that something was wrong from the beginning, I'll rush back now to take a look. You hurry up and gather the soldiers. Let's rush out! Abel explained.

Chapter 858: The clouds that spread over the inn

"Good!" Bandak immediately agreed. Turn around and walk towards the restaurant.

Abel also walked to Kant's room without delay.

The door to the guest room had been shut, and a hint of foreboding had crossed in Able's heart.

He walked to the door, slapped it vigorously with his palm, and shouted, "Your Majesty Kant! Your Majesty! Are you still there? Open the door for me, I'm Able. ”

Able tilted his ears sideways, leaning against the door, expecting the movement inside.

After a moment of tables and chairs moving, the lock of the guest room door was slowly twisted open, and Ebl held his breath and cautiously hid himself behind the edge of the wall.

"Crunch-" The door was opened, the size of a crack in the door.

"Abel?" After hearing Kant's voice, Abel who was squatting by the wall breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and responded: "Your Highness, the inn is no longer safe, let's rush out with the soldiers." ”

After seeing Able's face, Kant reassured himself to open the door and let the other party approach the room.

"Bang!" The door was closed again, and Abel looked at Kant suspiciously, and said, "Your Highness, we..."

"We're not leaving." Kant walked to the teahouse and sat down, and said lightly.

"The whole inn is dangerous, they were trying to kidnap us... I don't know what else will happen next. Abel explained anxiously.

"Don't jump to conclusions." Kant waved his hand and said, "Even if there is indeed a trap in this, it is not necessarily planned by the people of the hotel. Now, the plan of the group of people who want to plot against us has failed. It should be them, not us, who should be in a hurry. ”

"So what do you mean, Your Highness?" Able pondered for a moment before asking.

"Pin down the people in the hotel and see what they do next." Kant said quietly: "Also, send someone to monitor the knowledge of the letter, contact the management of the goblin clan, and let them set up an ambush around the hotel. ”

"Yes!" Able nodded in agreement.

Able immediately turned around and left the guest room after receiving the order, and went to contact Bandak and the others.

The lobby, which had been in a lot of chaos just a moment ago, became silent again. I don't know when the door of the hotel was closed by whom. Not only the café, but also the back kitchen and other places did not see a single person.

Able met Bandak and the Terran and Elven soldiers at the door of the restaurant.

The soldiers were already in formation, and everyone's faces were not very good-looking.

"Abel, why are you alone? What about Your Highness? Bandak nervously stepped forward and asked when he saw Able alone.

"Your Highness said, let us stay in this inn." Abel explained: "Moreover, Your Highness believes that the operation was not organized by the people in the inn. ”

"But the waiter at this inn is involved in this plan." Bandak was puzzled: "If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be so easily deceived." ”

"Alas, in short, Your Highness let us control the field for the time being. Don't get into any of the people in this hotel. Abel sighed and admonished, "Now this enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light." It is better to tell the soldiers to be careful. ”

"Okay." Bandak agreed. Then he turned to the other soldiers and preached, "Let's go together and search the lobby on the first floor." Always remember to pay attention to what is happening around you, stay close to your comrades, and don't be left alone. Got it? ”

"Yes!" The soldiers replied neatly.

"I'll take the soldiers downstairs, you can go and pick up His Highness first." Bandak said to Abel, "Your Highness must have someone around you. ”

"That's good. Be careful. Able nodded.

After seeing Able leave, Bandak led his soldiers down the stairs.

I don't know where the account office that stays next to the counter on weekdays has disappeared.

Bandak went to inspect the door of the inn and found that the door had been plugged in from the inside.

Remembering what Abel had just said, Bandak suddenly felt that this operation might be as His Highness Kant said: the people of the inn were not involved in planning the plan.

"Let's start searching. A team of five people formed a team, not only here, but also in the kitchen and backyard, and they all went to see. Bandak ordered.

The soldiers immediately dispersed, and together with the captain of their squad, they searched everywhere.

It didn't take long for a discovery to be made.

"Bandak Commander!" A Croatian soldier stood in front of the counter and shouted.

"What's wrong?" Bandak, who was guarding the door, immediately walked over and asked.

"Lord Ledger—" The soldier standing inside pointed to the wine cellar below the counter and said hesitantly.

When Bandak heard the word "bookkeeper", he immediately bent down to check: he found that the bottles had been piled up on the floor, and the bookkeeper's body was stuffed into the narrow space.

"Is he still breathing?" Bandak looked up and asked the soldier.

"No," said the soldier, hanging his head.

Bandak called for three or four soldiers and removed the corpses from the chamber. Place on the tea table.

The account office is estimated to have been forced under the counter after his death, I don't know what kind of strength that person has, to be able to do such an outrageous thing, seeing that Philit's bones have been deformed, Bandak couldn't help frowning, and said: "I'm here to guard this gentleman's body, you go to search other places quickly." How much can be saved. ”

"Yes." The four or five soldiers gathered around the tea table bowed their heads and replied.

After the soldiers had dispersed, Bandak unfastened his cloak and covered the entire body of the bookkeeper. After that, he stood motionless at the tea table, waiting for news from others.

I don't know when, Abel and Kant have already walked in front of him. Bandak shook his head and said, "You're here? ”

"Who is this?" Able asked solemnly.

"It's the inn's bookkeeper, Mr. Fillet." Bandak said word for word.

Kant couldn't help frowning after hearing the name from Bandak's mouth.

"How did you find him?" Kant was silent for a moment, then asked.

"The soldiers found him where the wine was hidden under the counter. By the time he was found, he had already died. Bandak explained heavily.

Able stepped forward and gently lifted a corner of his cloak. After glancing at it, he quietly put down the cloak in his hand.

"Anything else you've found anywhere else?" Kant looked at Bandak and asked.

"Not yet." Bandak shook his head and said.

Chapter 859: The Wanderer Trapped in the Cellar

Kant found a chair at the tea table and sat down, directing the other two to help the soldiers.

After Able and Bandak were ordered to leave, Kant's gaze rested on the body lying across the tea table.

Sadness streamed through Kant's eyes.

His previous evaluation of the account room was not good, and he usually followed his own rules and kept a distance from the account room. Now it seems that that idea is indeed condescending.

When people are alive, being hated by others and being liked by others are fireworks in life. Because I belong to different people from you, I will hate you, like you, or ignore you. Those strong emotions stir up life.

Human interaction is like the process of exchanging labels with each other. Kant did not regret his actions, and given the sophistication of his actions, such a sudden accident did not allow him to overturn his logic.

He just stood in the shoes of a guest of the hotel, and had some sad associations with the corpse in front of him. And it exudes the emotions that you should have as a human being.

After waiting for half an hour or so, Bandak and Abel turned back to Kant. "Your Highness, the people of the inn have been locked up in the cellar in the backyard. Most are unconscious. ”

"Take me to see it." Kant stood up and responded.

"Hmm." After Bandak arranged his subordinates, he nodded to Kant.

The three of them immediately rushed to the backyard of the inn: the soldiers were gathering at the door of the cellar, carrying the unconscious innkeepers to the courtyard one by one.

"What is the condition of the unconscious?" Kant asked the soldier who was carrying the man.

"Also... And breathing. "The cellar was carried up and down by wooden ladders, and the soldiers were too tired to carry their attendants, who were half a head taller than themselves, back to the ground. Faced with Kant's inquiry, the soldier could only reply breathlessly.

"That's good." Abel nodded, "Take the people in the inn to a ventilated area, and I'll help you later." ”

"Yes." The soldier nodded.

"That's terrible." The expression on Bandak's face was not optimistic, and he said at this time: "We have not yet been able to confirm whether the group of villains in charge of planning have escaped from the store. They gathered the waiters and the guests of the inn here. In case they take advantage of the chaos to get inside..."

Abel screamed in his heart that it was not good, and went to the mouth of the cellar and shouted, "Everyone! Stop it! ”

This sudden burst of shouting made everyone stunned and stopped what they were doing.

Abel paused, then continued: "We only rescue the guests and waiters of the hotel, all guests must show the keys to their rooms, and all waiters must be approved by their companions. ”

"Yes!" The soldiers straightened up and agreed.

"Alright, let's go ahead and rescue." Abel said.

After receiving the order, the soldiers began to question the identities of the waiters and guests one by one. And searches were carried out on the fainted people, and only those with the keys on them could be taken out of the cellar by the soldiers.

Able walked back to Kant and Bandak.

Bandak glanced at him and said, "You are really amazing, as soon as I think of this, you can immediately come up with a corresponding plan and stand up in time to announce it to the soldiers." ”

"Your 'bad' is the key, and until then, I didn't even notice what the problem was." Able replied embarrassedly.

"The plan that Abel came up with is still good. Even if there is an omission, there is no need to worry about the safety of the lives of those innocent people. Kant said approvingly.

After adding the link of checking, the speed of saving people has become significantly slower. However, after the rescued people woke up, they quickly joined the rescue team. The flow of tasks has also become smoother.

"How many people are now unverifiable?" Kant himself walked to the entrance of the cellar and asked one of the team leaders in charge.

"Your Highness, the number of people whose identities are unknown now is probably about eight." The team leader responded.

Kant glanced at Bandak on the side, and told the soldiers: "Let the soldiers be more careful, it is better for two people to go in together, and take care of each other." It's also easier to lift people. ”

"Yes, Your Highness." The soldier nodded.

Next to the entrance to the cellar stood many nomads who had escaped from the cellar. Kant was crammed into the crowd, which was really inconvenient, and after explaining everything, he immediately withdrew from it with the help of Bandak and Abel.

"Help me! I'm really not the bad guy you think I am! A shout came from the cellar, so that everyone who was busy in the courtyard suddenly fell silent.

The Kant trio also locked their eyes on the mouth of the cellar. Waiting for a follow-up conversation.

"But you said you don't know anyone here, how can I let you out so easily?" The soldier's voice also seemed a little anxious.

"I'm the one who delivers food. It's my first time here today, and I don't know anyone. Who are you going to ask me to prove to you? The man confronting the soldier responded.

"You said you were delivering food?" The soldier's tone became loose.

Kant frowned, and immediately raised his legs to the edge of the cellar, while Bandak and Able walked in front to clear the way for him.

Walking to the entrance of the cellar, Kant coldly ordered the soldiers in the cellar: "You guys, all withdraw. ”

"Your Highness?" The soldiers who were being interrogated raised their heads and looked up.

"Quick!" Bandak also ordered.

"Yes." One by one, the soldiers walked towards the staircase at the entrance to the cellar.

"Want to go?! You have to stay with us. The beast man who had just been interrogated had a fierce glint in his eyes, and he spoke with hatred.

Seven or eight wanderers who were squatting on the edge of the wall also answered the man's words, picked up the farming tools in the cellar, and stabbed at the soldiers on the side of the stairs.

"They can't react, you two, go down and help them." Kant commanded the two beside him the moment he heard the man's words.

Bandak and Abel looked at each other, nodded to each other, and immediately climbed the wooden ladder and dived into the cellar. Walk up to the soldiers and protect them behind them.

An undead screamed and pounced in front of Bandak, and he swung the undead battle axe in his hand to Bandak's neck.

Able was now engaged with another Assassin, but his eyes were drawn to the battle axe, and he shouted, "Bandak! Be careful! ”

After all, at this time, Bandak's body has no combat power.

Chapter 860: The Battle That Came to an End

Facing the tomahawk that slashed in front of him, Bandak took a deep breath and calmly observed the direction of the axe's blade.

As the axe was about to slit his throat, the Bandak townsfolk took a step back. He jumped in place and threw a horizontal kick at the undead.

The undead closed their eyes tightly, ready to take the blow hard.

But Bandak reined in his strength and retreated. The soldiers behind him swarmed up and restrained the undead with ropes.

After knocking the assassin to the ground with a spell, Abel immediately handed over his opponent to the rest of the soldiers. And he hurried towards Bandak's side.

"Are you alright?" Abel asked with concern.

"It's fine." Bandak shook his head as usual and said, "Although the strength is not as good as before, the body is used to the state of battle, so there is nothing to fear. ”

"It's good that it's not hurt." Able breathed a sigh of relief and blamed himself, "I almost forgot that you were still sick and thought you should be fine." I didn't think about that until the undead rushed towards you. ”

"Most of the undead are a bit bulky, I can handle it." Bandak shook his head and said, "You don't have to worry. ”

"I can't let you do it again next time." Able was still not very reassured, and said firmly.

By the end of the conversation, the battle had gradually calmed down.

The soldiers escorted the captives out of the cellar and handed them over to Kant for interrogation.

The man who had just launched the attack was escorted to Kant, his face covered with reluctance.

Kant raised his hand to let the orc man look at him, and asked, "Who sent you?" How did you sneak in? ”

"No one instructed us, we wanted to rest at this inn on our own." When the man replied, there was a hint of banter in his eyes. Kant couldn't help but frown.

"Rest? Didn't you just say you were here to deliver food? Kant stared at the man and asked.

"So what, I'm a food delivery person, so I can't have a cup of tea in this hotel and rest for a while?" The man said stiffly: "How can you say that I am not innocent? ”

"How so? You let the other waiters in this room listen. Ask any of them if there is a rule in the inn for outsiders to carry food. Kant snorted coldly and said, "Your lies are already full of holes. What do you want me to say? ”

"I," the orc man was speechless by Kant's words, and immediately fell silent.

"The people from the Inspectorate are almost out of the door, and I think they might be better suited to interrogate you guys." Kant shook his head and said, "Have you ever been to the Surveillance Center?" Judging by your actions, I guess you have entered it. After all, I also know that the job of a 'clean' killer like you is not easy. But don't worry, I'm going to give you a good rest this time. ”

"How many of our brothers do you want to tie up with your connections on the island? Outsiders, I advise you not to worry about this, most of the nomads on this island have two faces. Don't put too much faith in your so-called friends. The orc man said coldly.

"It's... Not something you have to worry about. Kant smiled and said, "All the soldiers, escort these people to the lobby." Waiting for the adults at the inspection center to come and collect them. ”

"Yes!" The soldiers had long seen that this beast man who was full of arrogance was not very pleasing to the eye. After Kant gave the order, he swarmed up and punched the man several times in a push.

When the orc man arrived in the lobby, his face was already bruised.

The crowd sat in silence for a while while waiting, until there was a knock at the door.

"Go open the door." Kant ordered to one of the soldiers beside him.

When the soldier heard this, he immediately walked to the door of the inn and pulled it down. The army of goblins came in.

A familiar goblin soldier stepped forward and greeted, "Your Majesty Kant, I'm sorry, we're late to write. Are you alright? ”

"It's alright, did you have any trouble on the way here?" Kant asked, glancing at the clock on the wall.

"It's nothing, it's just that I've been delayed for a while by the temporary assignment." The soldier replied apologetically, "It doesn't matter. ”

"We have subdued the homeless people who broke into the hotel, please take them back to the detention center for trial." Kant turned back to the topic and said.

"The people in the store, are anyone hurt?" The goblin soldier confirmed.

"Most of the people who are locked up in the cellar don't matter. It is estimated that he will wake up soon. They are being treated by our side of the staff. Kant paused and continued: "One of the people killed is the bookkeeper in this hotel, I hope you can settle this matter properly, and give an account to the innocent victims." ”

"We'll do our best." The goblin raised his head and glanced at Chen Heng's corpse on the tea table, and nodded in agreement.

The unidentified nomad was handed over to the goblin soldiers, and Kant personally escorted the goblin army to the door.

Philit's body was also carried away by the goblin soldiers, leaving only Bandak's cloak on the tea table.

While watching the goblin soldiers leave, Able asked Kant, "Your Highness, the innkeeper probably didn't know about this yet, and Philit's body was transported away like this..."

"Don't worry, the innkeeper is a rational man. It should be known what Philit's body was in the hands of the people in the prison. Kant exhaled deeply, waved his hand, and said.

"Can you still live in this hotel?" Bandak raised the question in his mind.

"There's no way, this group of people is targeting us. Wherever we go, they will follow on their own. Let's continue to live here. Kant responded.

"If this matter is spread by the residents on the street, the business of this hotel will not be optimistic." Abel said worriedly, "So it's better for us to stay here." You can't drive other bosses to a dead end. ”

The three of them stood at the door of the inn for a long time, and after a long while, they walked back to the lobby.

The people in the inn were almost in good health, but after learning that the bookkeeper had died, everyone was enveloped in an atmosphere of grief.

Kant arranged for the soldiers to put all the tea tables together, and said to everyone: "Sit down, everyone, let's have a good talk, I still have a lot to confirm with you." ”

When the waiters and chefs in the restaurant heard this, they casually found a place and sat down, as Kant had said.
