Chapter 1292: Extinguishing the Mouth

Li Huailin came to the city of Satin La again, and there were also Reg, and a dozen or so guards, and then Riggi, who had just woken up, also followed, and the group just came to the city and immediately attracted the attention of the city guards, of course, the team of more than a dozen people, and then looked at the soldiers, of course, the city guards here came to ask about the situation, as soon as they heard that it was the Duke of Aquitaine, the city guards were also very nervous.

"Has this incident alarmed the palace?" The captain of the city guard here asked a little cautiously, of course he thought that the matter here had alarmed the emperor, so the emperor sent Li Huailin to check on the situation.

"Not yet." Li Huailin said, "It's just that this person named Carl owes me a lot of debt, and now he disappears, do you think I'm going to come to him?" ”

"Lord Duke, what does it mean to disappear?" The captain of the city guard here asked a little strangely.

"Isn't this rich merchant missing?" Li Huailin asked strangely.

"Not missing." The captain of the city guard here said a little strangely, "It was indeed reported that the disappearance case was reported before, but after a little search, we immediately found the body of this man named Karl, just outside the city...... This is a homicide. ”

"Huh?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned, "Found the body?" How did I not know about this? ”

"This ...... The Duke didn't inform us that we were going to report it to you......" The captain of the city guard here said a little embarrassed, who knew you were paying attention to this matter.

"This guy is dead? How did he die? Li Huailin asked.

"No external injuries, it looks like ...... It's like being poisoned. The captain of the city guard here replied.

"Poisoned? What about corpses? Li Huailin asked.

"His wife is going back, and now it's estimated that he is at home." The captain of the city guard replied.

"Let's go, I just have some questions I want to ask his wife." Li Huailin said.

Of course, it was impossible for the city guards to stop Li Huailin, and he quickly came to Carl's house with Li Huailin, and just walked to the door. Li Huailin saw a middle-aged NPC wearing a noble robe waiting for him, needless to say, this must be the city lord of Sadinla City.

"Lord Duke, below you is Rosyth, the lord of the city of Sadinla. Welcome to the Duke, Yorkett. Sure enough, when he saw Li Huailin appear, the lord of York City here immediately rushed over to say hello. Of course, there is nothing to say. According to Li Huailin's current status in the Human Empire, the local lords everywhere they go have to come to greet him, otherwise it is not a trivial matter.

"Hello Lord Yorkett." Li Huailin also said hello casually, and then introduced his purpose this time.

"This ......" Hearing that Li Huailin was here to investigate this murder case, the Yorkett city lord here was obviously nervous, of course, it was not that he was a murderer, but he was worried about his future.

"Don't worry, this is a private matter, I won't report it after the investigation, Anthony hasn't been so free to take care of the murder case here." Li Huailin said.

"Yes. Yes, thank you, Lord Duke. Of course, the city lord of York here instantly understood what Li Huailin meant, and he also wiped his sweat a little, although he said so, but ...... Still a little worried.

Of course, Li Huailin didn't care what Yokett thought here, and walked in directly with people. There are still quite a lot of people in the hall now, and Li Huailin obviously saw a coffin placed in the middle of the hall, and next to the coffin, a guy who looked like a clergyman was chanting scriptures to the people inside. Of course, Li Huailin also saw a middle-aged woman in black and a young man in black sitting next to him, and from the tear-stained faces of the two, Li Huailin quickly understood the identities of the two.

"Lord of the Castle. You've got to catch my husband's killer. Seeing Yoctac, Yocter's wife Kassandra also stood up immediately, and couldn't help but cry again.

"Lord Duke, this is Carl's wife, Kassandra." The lord of the city of Yorkett here immediately introduced to Li Huailin, and then said to Kassandra, "This is Lord Ruolin, the Duke of the Nasser Empire. This adult has a question for you, and you must answer it truthfully. ”

Kassandra also seemed to be frightened by Li Huailin's name, after all, the Duke of the Empire is a super official, and the Lord of York City and her husband are still a little friendly, but she has never seen such a big nobleman as the Duke. immediately knelt down for Li Huailin, "Lord Duke, the women know everything. ”

"How many years have you been married to your husband?" Li Huailin asked suddenly.

"Uh...... Twelve years. Kassandra here immediately replied, "After a year of marriage, we were promoted to Curt Jr., and now Curt Jr. is eleven years old, so we have been married for twelve years." ”

Kassandra here pointed to the boy next to him, of course, his and Carl's son, whose name was Kurt, who was eleven years old.

"Yes." The lord of Yokett next to him also said, "Actually, I also have a bit of a personal friendship with Karl here, and I even attended their wedding, which should have been twelve years ago. ”

"Hmm." Li Huailin nodded, and then asked again, "Then do you know what your husband used to do?" Have you ever been a butler for a noble lord or something? ”

"Huh?" Kassandra was slightly stunned, "Lord Duke, this ...... My lord used to be the son of the steward of the Phalaenopsis Chamber of Commerce, and he left the chamber of commerce a long time ago to set up his own business, and then gradually made a fortune. ”

"Really?" Li Huailin nodded slightly, "But when I came a few days ago, he told me in person that he used to be the butler of the Count of Gitalera's house." ”

"Count Gitalera, who is he?" Kassandra here was obviously stunned, "His Royal Highness the Duke, I have never heard Carl say this name, it is true that we have some communication with the nobles, but basically they are all local nobles here, but the nobles of such a big count have not been contacted yet." ”

"Yes, Lord Duke." The lord of Yoctut next to him also said, "I haven't heard the name Count Gitalera either, and I don't remember that our empire now has the Count of Gitalera...... Did the Duke misremember his name? ”

Yockett is really not lying, Li Huailin also investigated before, the title of Count Gitalera was indeed inherited by a relative of Gitalera, but later changed his name, and now when it comes to Count Gitalera, few people really know.

"Understood." Li Huailin nodded slightly, this sounds very weird, but it's not very strange, in fact, when he heard that Carl here was dead, Li Huailin also thought of something, that is, this Carl is actually just a stand-in, someone gave him information, and then asked him to pretend to be the butler of Count Gitalera, but he doesn't know whether it's true or not, because there are not many people who know Count Gitalera, and of course he won't know what Count Gitalera's butler looks like, the current situation, Of course, Carl was killed here.

"Do any of you know about autopsies?" Li Huailin turned his head and asked.

"This ...... Marshal, I understand a little bit. St. Regis here raised his hand.

"Then you can see how this Carl died, and then see if there are any clues." Li Huailin said.

"Yes." Rigi on this side nodded, and then immediately walked towards Carl's corpse, Kassandra on this side hesitated slightly, but she didn't dare to go up to stop it, after all, it was the Duke, and she didn't dare to offend.

Rigi looked at Carl's corpse here, mainly to look at his face, then rolled his eyelids and looked at it, and said: "Lord Marshal, this corpse's face is pale, but its eyes are a little black, it looks like it is indeed poisoned, but I have never seen this kind of poison ......"

While speaking, Rigi was about to flip Carl's body, ready to see what was going on with the back of the corpse, but before he could do anything, a scream suddenly came from the side, and everyone turned their heads to see that Carl's son Kurt suddenly fell to the ground, in pain.

"Little Curt!" Of course, Kassandra on this side immediately rushed to check on his son, and Li Huailin was also a little stunned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"I don't know, little Curt started a little unwell in the morning...... Alas? As he was talking, Xiao Curt on the ground suddenly began to twitch, looking very strict, not only that, but his abdomen seemed to suddenly begin to swell, and the whole person felt like a balloon that had been flushed.

"Bang", when everyone didn't react, a puff of black smoke suddenly came out of the little Curt's body here, and Kassandra next to him didn't react at all, and was immediately shrouded in black smoke, only 3 seconds later, Kassandra here suddenly spewed out a mouthful of black blood, and then poured directly on the little Curt's body.

"Yes...... Poisonous! The people next to him were frightened, this was not only poisonous but also poisonous, and the surrounding crowd immediately screamed and dispersed.

"Protect the marshal!" The Rigi here also jumped back to Li Huailin's side in an instant, and then immediately pulled Li Huailin back.

"Okay, get out of the way, I'm fine." Of course Li Huailin is not afraid, what he is not afraid of is the poison attack, that is, he is adding blood to himself, how can he be afraid. The priest who was praying over there also reacted quickly, raising the priest's staff in front of him, and the golden light flashed on his body, it seemed that he had used some kind of poison removal spell, and sure enough, the black smoke on this side was immediately charged.

"It's really TMD looking for trouble, just came here and asked two words, and the people were silenced, or in front of me, Rege, immediately lead the team to block the scene, and all the people inside are detained." Li Huailin also said immediately. (To be continued......)
