In fact, there is more than one such rat, and the iron axe looked at the captured person with a blank face, "You are already the third person to jump ship and escape, and the fugitives also say that you are not from the east, do you have any last words to explain?"

The two people who were caught before immediately confessed their origins and purpose after cutting off two fingers with a short sword. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info Of course, their corpses had been thrown into the canal - Iron Axe had never been a merciful man, and his experience in Iron Sand had taught him that the best way to deal with such a temptation to hide his head and tail was to cut off the hands that stretched out of the line one by one. However, to his surprise, the guy who was kneeling on the ground with his hands tied behind his back looked very healthy, not as if he was already sick.

Could it be that which force sent the dead soldiers?

"I'm not your enemy," he said with the first words that made Iron Axe startle slightly, "My name is Hill Fawkes, and Tassa knows my name!"

......

Tasa hadn't left the docks at this time, and after being called over by Iron Axe's men, he glanced at Hill and pouted, "This person is Black Hammer's subordinate. ”

"Not your people?" Iron Axe asked.

"It has nothing to do with me, just a rat just starting out in the industry. ”

"You've deceived the Black Hammer, and you've deceived the Skull Finger," Hill said suddenly, "You're not working for Tifeco, you're working for His Highness Roland Wimbledon in the West!"

"He knows too much. Tassa made a neck wipe motion with the iron axe, "The best place for this person to go is at the bottom of the canal." ”

He was still looking down on himself and said, "I have heard everything that mercenary promotes, we can cooperate! I am willing to serve His Highness Roland!"

"Your Highness doesn't need the allegiance of a rat," Iron Axe drew his sword.

"I'm not a rat, I'm ...... Free people of the royal city, I am Tifeko's enemy!" Ciel said aloud.

"Wait," Tassa called out to the iron axe and walked up to the other, who raised his head and looked at the guard without fear, as if something was burning in his eyes.

I see...... That's the answer I never understood when I first met him, Tasa thought. His eyes were full of hatred, and this hatred was so strong that even if he deliberately concealed it at the time, it could not completely hide the anger.

"Tell me why you want to serve Your Highness. ”

"I do live in Beicheng District, and I occasionally go to the underground trumpeter to drink, but I didn't lose all my family property because of gambling, and my wife didn't run away with someone else......" Hill gritted his teeth, "She was killed by Tifeko!"

The story is not complicated, and Tasa quickly figured out the ins and outs.

He and his wife were originally part of the Pigeon and Top Hat Acrobatic Troupe, and often performed in the inner city of the royal capital. The acrobatic troupe is not large, only seven people, but the atmosphere is very harmonious. And his wife, as the only woman in the group, was unanimously pursued by everyone. In the end, Hill wins and wins her heart. After getting married, life was very sweet, and it didn't take long for the two to save up to buy a house in the inner city. But all of this is destroyed by Tifeco's witch hunt, and Langley's patrol, led by Langley, is like a pack of mad dogs to hunt down suspects, and her wife is one of the unfortunate ones who have been caught by mistake.

Hill Fox thought that by paying the ransom, he would be able to free his wife and see her in prison. The warden accepted the ransom, but did not release her, not even acceding to his request to visit him in prison, but reassured her that he would release his wife after a while when he was sure that she was not a witch. Unexpectedly, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and when he was told to go to the prison to receive people, he saw a scarred corpse.

Hill angrily asks Langley for an explanation, but in the end, the warden, cell boss, and guard are all sentenced to ten lashes and a fine of twenty-five silver wolves, and he is compensated by three golden dragons. Such a punishment was completely unacceptable to Hill, and he even approached the top leader of the patrol, Sir Weimas, the Knight of Steelheart, but it was still to no avail. Sir told him that Langley was a close confidant of Tifeco Wimbledon, and that the new patrolmen were his minions. At the same time, it is His Majesty's will to hunt down witches, and even the Minister of Justice will not say a word for him.

So Ciel decided to take revenge on the new king, and unexpectedly, this decision was approved by all the partners of the acrobatic troupe. However, a group of actors with no combat expertise, no wealth and subordinates want to seek revenge, which is almost an unattainable goal. All Hill can think of is to gather information about Tifeko and provide it to his enemies, such as Garcia, the queen of the blue water. They join different Dark Street organizations to lurk and gather any clues related to the new king.

It was also for this reason that he was secretly monitoring Tasa's movements - if Tifeko wanted to deport the refugees, he should try to stop them as much as he could. However, before it could take action, the plague broke out, and Tasa suspended the transport of fugitives. To this day, Hill found these people in action again. In order to find out, he simply disguised himself as a refugee and blended into the crowd, only to find out that the real person Tasa was working for was Roland Wimbledon, the fourth prince of the Grey Castle.

There is no doubt that as a member of the competition for the throne of the Grey Keep, he is also a great enemy of Tifeco.

Probably in Ciel's eyes, as long as he can bring down the new king, even if he works for the devil.

"Last question, didn't you think about the possibility of being infected when you blended into the crowd to find out the news?" asked Tasa with interest, "I don't think a person with a goal of revenge would take his life so lightly. ”

"I have the antidote," Shirnu gestured, "and in my underwear pocket, the acrobatic troupe buddies bought it for me from the black market at the expense of most of their fortune. ”

Tassar reached out and touched it, pulling out a small transparent vial the size of his index finger, which seemed to be filled with a piece of blue liquid. He handed the bottle to the iron axe, "the Holy Spirit Medicine of the Church...... I think Your Highness will be interested in this. ”

"This man ......," Iron Axe asked, taking the bottle, "what do you think?"

"Hmm," Tasa touched his chin, and if it was usual, he would only choose the safest thing to do when he didn't verify the truth of his words, and send him straight on his way. But there happened to be someone in the camp who could accurately tell if he was lying, "I'd like to ask Miss Nightingale to verify it." ”

......

In the evening, Tasa returned to the underground trumpeter.

Black Hammer's spirit was clearly not good, and the recent spread of the plague had brought the tavern's business to freezing low, and the infection of the silver ring and clay pot had exacerbated his unease.

Hill sat across from Tasa as if nothing had happened, as he usually did.

The guard smiled slightly, and threw a small bag of golden dragons in front of the black hammer, "Don't be so depressed, I want to tell you good news, there is business again." ”

Black Hammer counted the coins, put them in his arms, and said weakly, "I won't take any business." Now that the plague is rampant, who would dare to hang out outside? The money earned is not enough for everyone to buy the Holy Spirit Medicine. Do you know how expensive a bottle of medicine can be sold on the black market now? at least twenty-five golden dragons!"

"What a coincidence," said Tassa, "I want to say that this business also happens to sell medicines," he paused, "...... A special medicine to deal with the evil plague. (To be continued.) )
