Chapter 289: Drunken Sleeping
"Whew-whew-" No matter how Grabo called, Bolton hung his head and purred like a hibernating bear.
Grabo can't help it, he can't leave Bolton here, or tomorrow Bolton will find himself sleeping on all sides at the banquet and no one will care, and he will have to get angry.
Grabo lifted Bolton's right arm around the back of his neck, ready to lift him up and carry him back to his room to sleep.
But Grabogo looked at his own strength, he was not a main combatant in the Trojan family, he had not received active infection, he was just an ordinary person, he had no extraordinary strength, and he was usually drunk on wine, he didn't exercise much, and he was too tired to hug a maid, how could he carry a strong man like Boton.
Grabo exerted his strength several times, but he couldn't lift Bolton, and almost flashed his waist.
"Whew-whew-" Burton collapsed on the ground like mud, snorting and sleeping, so anxious that Grabo was sweating profusely.
On the other side of the banquet, Solandelle had tasted a little bit of wine today, but she really didn't inherit any of Perseus's drink, and she was already asleep with her arms on her pillows in a daze.
On the contrary, Lorna, who has dragon blood, has an extremely amazing amount of wine, with empty barbecue plates and empty wine glasses in front of her, and it is conservatively estimated that there are seven or eight catties of 20-degree fruit wine, and the whole person has nothing to do, not even a red face.
Seeing that Grabo was helpless against Boton, Lorna walked over directly and gave him a blank look: "Why are you so strong as a little girl?" I'll do it. ”
After speaking, she picked up more than 200 catties of Bolton with one hand and carried it on her shoulders, as simple as carrying a bag of wheat.
Grabo was surprised by the dragon knight's strength, and laughed, "Then I'm sorry for you." ”
Lorna carried Bolton back to the room, threw him on the bed, picked up the quilt and threw it at him, clapped her hands and said, "Okay, it's done, you go home, I'm ready to go back to sleep with Solan." ”
Grabo rolled his eyes and said respectfully: "No, no, no, His Royal Highness the Prince is not lightly drunk, and he is injured, and I see that the other guards are also drunk, so I will stay here to keep vigil, and I will take care of His Royal Highness at night." ”
"Vigil?" Lorna looked puzzled and looked weird, "What are you keeping watch here?" Are you going to sleep with Burton? Whew-"
"You're kidding, I didn't mean that." Grabo smiled helplessly and said with concern, "His Royal Highness the Prince is drunk like this, and there is no personal guard by his side, I am worried that it will not be safe at night." Wasn't it very dangerous yesterday, it is said that that Chino's thug sneaked in here in the middle of the night to try to deceive people, but fortunately, His Royal Highness handled it properly and didn't let him do anything. ”
Lorna sighed, shook her head and muttered, "Anyway, Solan and I don't believe in that kind of thing... We all felt that Chino had been wronged. ”
"I won't comment on this, I believe that His Royal Highness the Prince will make a fair decision." Grabo coughed lightly, his tone slightly urging him, "Miss Lona, I just saw that Her Royal Highness the princess was sleepy, why don't you take her back to rest quickly, it's good to have me here." ”
"Okay, then I'll go, you take good care of Bolton here." Lorna didn't stop long, ready to go back to Solandelle.
After Lorna left, Grabo tiptoed to the door to listen, and when he heard the footsteps disappear at the end of the corridor, he relieved himself, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and looked back at the room.
Burton has the habit of taking a nap in the afternoon, and in order to improve his work efficiency, he will often bring some important documents back to his room, so that he can continue to review them as soon as he wakes up.
At this time, many military documents were neatly stacked on the table, and those that had been annotated were placed on the right-hand side, and those that were not annotated were placed on the left-hand side, showing them in front of Grabo without any secrets.
I don't know if there's anything in there...
Grabo stole a look at Bolton, Lorna was careless, and didn't pose well when he released Bolton, making him sleep in a crooked position, and the quilt covered his head, like a shroud.
But Bolton was still snoring like thunder, presumably very drunk, and he was directly broken, and it is estimated that he will not wake up if he kicks him.
Grabo swallowed nervously, lowered his body, slowed his movements as much as he could, and quietly walked to the desk, holding his breath like a sneaking ghost.
Grabo walked over to his desk, pulled out his first document, and began to peek.
Suddenly, there was a furious roar from behind him: "What are you doing?!" ”
“??!!” Grabo only felt that his consciousness was blank for a moment, the cold current rushed down his back, the blood all over his body seemed to be frozen, his mind buzzed like exploding gunpowder, and the whole person almost broke his nerves and fainted to the ground, he didn't even have the courage to move, and his mouth was stumbling, but he couldn't say any cunning words.
However, after a long time, the imaginary blow did not come.
I heard Bolton turn over and muttered in a daze: "Don't eat that spoonful in the middle of the watermelon... That's for Solan... We eat on the side..."
It turned out to be a dream talk... The tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and Grabo only felt that his eyes were black for several seconds, his heart rate was approaching 200, and he was covered in cold sweat, and he almost passed out.
Grabo didn't even dare to catch his breath, so he swallowed hard, held his trembling hand, and when he calmed down, he began to secretly flip through the papers on the table.
"Mansion Sentry Deployment Map", "Search and Arrest Intelligence Summary", "Prisoner Statistics Table", "Regimental Entry Batch Planning"...
Some of these documents were routine military information, some were confidential news, and Grabo was absolutely not qualified to have access to them, and if Bolton found out that he was peeping, it was not a capital crime, and the torture interrogation alone could peel him off several layers like an onion.
But Grabo now put the law behind him, tiptoeing through them, and glanced at the classified documents without looking at them, as if he was determined to find something.
Halfway through the flavage, he suddenly looked at a flame and carefully pulled out a document.
The document was titled "Prisoner Transfer Record", and it was written by the wardens of the Guards Legion, and most of the prisoners were desert horse bandits captured in the Battle of Blood Sand, including many high-ranking officers of the horse bandits, and even several captured tribal chiefs.
The order of the list was in order of the date of the latest capture, and on the last page of the newly captured prisoners, Grabo saw familiar names -
Name: Chino Van Heersing.
Date of capture: 4:13 a.m. on the 18th of Red Lotus.
Detention place: Basement, No. 63, Jade Lane, Beicheng District, Thundercloud City.
Alert Level: Level 1.
Looking at the "detention place" recorded on the paper, Grabo's eyes narrowed, the North City is the old town of Thundercloud City, this Emerald Alley was included in the scope of demolition a few years ago, but because of planning problems, it has not been started, there are a large number of uninhabited old houses, and homeless wild dogs or homeless people can occasionally be seen coming and going.
Most of the houses in Emerald Lane are duplexes with basements, so as long as you clean up the surrounding homeless people, it is really a good place for Tibetans.
Grabo looked down at the "Alert Level".
First-level alert, this is the highest level of alert on the march, and those who can "enjoy" this treatment are mostly crucial felons, such as the several tribal chieftains captured in the Battle of Blood Sand, who are first-level security guards.
According to the combat power of the Guards Legion, the first-level alert keeper is likely to be the "Burning Mang" of the 5th sequence, with high professionalism and extremely terrifying strength, and the prisoner can't fly out even if he has wings.
Grabo memorized the information in his head, put the documents back in their place, and he was very careful once, all the documents were placed in order, the position of the pen, the number of pages of the documents spread, etc., all restored, and there was no trace of anyone who had touched it.
Grabo finished processing the traces, tiptoed over to Bolton, and looked closely, but Bolton still slept like a dead pig, his breath was full of wine, and his snoring was comparable to thunder.
Seeing this, Grabo felt a lot more relieved and secretly left the room.
"Squeak..."
The moment the door closed, Bolton slowly opened his eyes, and there was a seeping cold light hidden in them.
...
As soon as Grabo arrived in the corridor, he happened to meet the guards patrolling here, he did not show panic, and even took the initiative to greet him: "Oh, even if someone is here, I am looking for someone to take care of His Royal Highness the prince in my place." ”
The guard stepped forward and asked, "Is His Royal Highness the Prince alright?" ”
Grabo responded: "It's fine, I'm already asleep." ”
The guard opened the door and took a look, and seeing that Bolton was sleeping deeply, he gently closed the door, nodded and said, "I'm tired of you taking care of His Royal Highness the Prince, where are you going?" ”
Grabo smiled: "I was going to take care of His Highness all night, but just now I suddenly remembered that there was an urgent official business that was not handled, and it happened that the two of you came, so right?" ...”
The guard heard the meaning and did not refuse: "Then please go back to work first, His Royal Highness the Prince will be taken care of by us, and tomorrow when he wakes up, we will explain the reason." ”
"I'm tired, take my leave." Grabo hurried away.
After leaving Burton's residence, Grabo rushed back to the mansion and found a dead confidant.
Graboti wrote a document with his pen, stamped it with the seal of the magistrate, gave it to the dead man, and gave him the information about Chino's place of detention, and then said in a deep voice: "This document is used as a cover, and you now take it out of the city with you, and bring the news of Chino to 'the one'." Always be careful on the road and make sure no one is following you. ”
The dead man nodded heavily, put away the papers, and placed a poison sac in his mouth.
These dead men are often abandoned babies who have been adopted by the Trojan family since childhood, and have undergone professional and rigorous training, not only are they highly capable of fighting, but also have some almost perverted loyalty, and regard serving Troy as their highest calling.
Every time they carry out a secret mission, they will put a poison sac in their mouths in advance, and once they are caught, they will not hesitate to bite the poison sac and kill themselves, killing the secret and their own lives.
The dead man was ordered to leave the mansion on a fast horse overnight.
However, due to the assassination, all the city defenses of Thundercloud City were ordered to be transferred, and the entire city's defenses were already under the control of the Guards.
No, as soon as the dead man arrived at the city gate, he was interrogated at the checkpoint.
"Stop!" As soon as the soldiers saw someone riding a horse, they immediately raised their hands to signal to restrain their horses, and the rest of the city defense personnel also tightened their weapons to prevent anyone from rushing to the card.
The dead man cooperated and stopped at the checkpoint.
The soldier stepped forward and asked, "Who?" ”
Dead man: "The executive of Thundercloud City is close to the guard, and now I want to bring a letter of information to Fengyun Pass, please let me go quickly." ”
"Send information?" The soldier looked puzzled, "Fengyun Pass is several days away from here, why don't you just fly pigeons and pass the book?" ”
The dead man replied, "This is confidential information, and the magistrate of Grabo, fearing that the flying pigeons will be lost, has asked me to escort them personally." ”
The soldier and his companion discussed something in a whisper, and then said with a blank face: "Now is a special period, His Royal Highness the Prince has an order, and no one is allowed to leave Thundercloud City without reason. ”
Dead Man: "I can understand the difficulties of several people, but this is an urgent report to the Governor's Palace, not for nothing. If a few of you still want to stop it, then please write a pledge that you will bear the consequences of delaying the information, and then I will stay in the city and wait for the lockdown to be lifted. ”
In this case, the regulations have long been stipulated, and the soldier said in a rather formal tone: "If you must leave Thundercloud City, you must go through a thorough examination and take out your personal documents for us to review." ”
The dead man suddenly frowned: "I have already said just now, this is confidential information for the Governor's Mansion - confidential, do you know the meaning of these two words?" ”
The soldier said coldly, "There is no secret now that is as big as the assassination of the prince, and if the Governor investigates it and asks him to send a letter to His Royal Highness the Prince, we will bear any responsibility." ”
After all, Thundercloud City is Grabo's territory, and although the city defense army has been transferred, he is very familiar with the situation of the city gate control, and what is happening now has long been predicted.
There is a possibility of leakage of information recorded on any carrier, only the information recorded in the brain is invisible, as long as you don't say it, no one will know.
The information about Chino's detention was entirely verbal, and the dead were remembered.
Now this so-called "confidential information" is just a cover document for the soldiers at the city gate, and it doesn't hurt for people to see it, or in other words, it is one of its functions to let people see it.
In order to behave more naturally, the dead soldier and the soldier exchanged a few words back and forth, and finally pretended to be unable to do it, and took out the document: "Then you see! I'll report this to the Governor! ”
The soldier took the file, opened it, and looked through it carefully.
The document wrote about the process of the prince's assassination, as well as the recent movements of Thundercloud City, which was indeed reported to the governor of the province, and there was no sensitive information.
The soldiers searched the dead soldier again, and made sure that they did not hide any prohibited items, as for the poison sac in the mouth, not to mention that this part of the mouth is generally not included in the scope of "body search", the poison sac is very hidden, even if you open your mouth to let people find it, you really can't find it if you don't look carefully.
After reading the documents and searching his body, the soldier returned the documents, took a step back, and made a "please" gesture: "What an offense, we are just doing our duty, please don't mind the Governor when the time comes." ”
The dead man took the file and let out a lukewarm "um".
The soldier waved his hand to his companion behind him, signaling to remove the barricade.
After the level opened, the dead man shook the reins vigorously, rode out of the city gate, and disappeared into the night.
