A strange world

Chapter 1048 Section 279. Push

The hard soles of the boots stepped on the crunching snow and stood in front of the gate.

"Gratton, nice to meet you."

"I... I'm the butler." The butler who came out to buy time for Gratton stumbled and said, "The master is not at home..."

"How could it be, my people just saw him in front of the window." With the unique publicity and arrogance of young people, Young Master Olme tilted his head and said, "Let's go in and say hello to Gratton."

"You... You can't go in!" The butler wanted to block Annan, but was pushed away by him.

When he was about to break into the manor, a roar sounded:

"Young Master Olme!"

"Little... Kyle?" Annan looked at the little bat falling from the sky, and his surprise flashed away: "Mr. Kyle, do you know Gratton?"

"Gratton is the Grand Duke's man, how dare you cause trouble for Lord Barbatod?"

"Mr. Kyle, I'm just following orders."

Annan still maintained a little respect for him, which made Kyle feel a little relieved and happy to play this play with him.

"Whose order?"

"Mr. Chairman."

"Impossible!"

Annan took out the amulet given to him by the Chairman: "Every move I make is approved by the Chairman!"

Kyle's pupils shrank slightly, because the amulet was real... What's going on, why is the Chairman standing on the side of Annan?

Wait...

Kyle vaguely remembered that the Chairman's surname was Augusta, and Annan's deputy city lord was also named Augusta...

With a thoughtful look, Kyle said to the butler with a pale face:

"Tell your master that Grand Duke Barbatod cannot intervene in this matter."

"Mr. Kyle..."

Kyle didn't listen to the rest of the words, and flew up like a big bat... Hey, where is his black cloak?

Annan retracted his gaze and continued to order: "Start searching, and those who dare to resist will be killed on the spot!"

Even the legendary wizard was scared away, and the butler and guards had no idea of ​​resisting at all. They let the people of the Purification Court break in and catch their grandfather, search everywhere, and do to them what they did to others.

The Purification Court's men were all good at confiscating houses. In less than 20 minutes, even the wall painted with gold powder was scraped off.

Returning to the Purification Court, Annan couldn't wait to go to the dungeon.

Chatting with Graton, who was gloomy and refused to speak: "Do you know? Milburn, Barr and others were originally imprisoned in this cell."

Graton's eyes fluctuated.

"Do you know why you were arrested?"

Graton said hoarsely: "I didn't collude with the Free Blade..."

"Tell me everything you know."

"I didn't collude with the Free Blade..."

He repeated this sentence over and over again, refusing to cooperate.

Terry came over: "Do you want us to beat him for dozens of minutes before interrogating him?"

Annan stared at Graton, whose fat body was trembling, shook his head, and suddenly said: "Princess Sayles."

Graton raised his head in surprise, but there was no panic or evasion.

"Your current evidence is enough to go to Milburn and the others, but if you can tell me something that interests me, I will allow you to make meritorious contributions while serving your sentence."

"I don't know anything..."

Annan asked a few more questions to confirm that the warden really knew nothing, and handed him over to his men, and rushed to the main location of the clue - the residence of Sugra's grain collector.

In order to avoid being discovered by the people behind the scenes, Annan picked a few lucky people from the list. Anyway, they are full of evil, and the longer they live, the more suffering the civilians will suffer.

With so many people coming in, the dungeon suddenly became extremely lively.

Sugra, who was locked in the cell, was dejected. He had heard of the reputation of Olme and the horror of the Purification Court dungeon. It was said that no one who came in could get out alive, even the royal family was no exception...

Fortunately, not only did he not collude with the Free Blade, but he also did not embezzle much money. Olme should not be tortured into confessing, right?

And a little bit of relief that it was not that incident...

"Why did you kill Olga to silence her?"

Sugra's pretended calm was broken: "I don't know what you are talking about..."

"He is still alive, and the Shadow Brotherhood you entrusted to do it is not reliable."

"I...he blocked my way. If I want to get promoted, I must kill him, and he is also..." Sugra quickly thought of an excuse and perfected it.

"Sugra, who asked you to harm Princess Saiers?"

Then Annan's words punctured all the luck.

He knows everything...

Sugra's expression no longer needs to be tested, Annan chuckled: "I caught you."

"Tell me everything you know."

Sugra was silent, and Annan was not in a hurry: "If you can be sent to kill Olga, someone will send someone to kill you. I actually saved you."

"If you tell it, I will die."

"If you don't tell it, you will die too."

At this time, the subordinates came to the side: "My lord, he should be referring to the spell that will kill if you mention the relevant content."

Annan looked at Sugra with an inquiring look and got his confirmation.

"Can you solve it?" Annan asked his men.

"I can't detect anything, at least it's a spell above the eighth ring..." The men who were already elite mages shook their heads.

It seems that Skeleton King or Kyle should come to help, but Annan has a more suitable candidate.

He took out the amulet given to him by the Councillor and activated it directly.

A soft white light that was not strong lit up in the dungeon, and the Councillor in a white robe walked out.

Sugla was stunned. When he confirmed that this was not an illusion, he lowered his head and said, "I'll tell you."

The importance of the councillor in the eyes of the people of the kingdom was heavier than Annan had imagined. He just stood there, and Sugra didn't want to hide it anymore.

"Don't worry, let me remove the curse for you first."

The councillor's magic power knew what was going on as soon as he explored it. He raised his staff and condensed a milky white halo that fell on Sugra.

Some shackles seemed to have melted away in the dark. Sugra was relaxed, knelt on the ground, and told everything he knew:

Sugla was just the execution link of this huge conspiracy, and the real murderer was someone else - this is certain. He is a small grain collector, how could he have the courage to murder the royal family.

"Who is your superior?"

"I can't contact that big man. I only know that the person who contacted me is a butler named Ruby..."

The councillor looked at other cells in the dungeon.

"They are a cover, and I'm worried that they will be discovered by the people behind the scenes." Annan explained.

The chairman of the council looked at Annan: "Only one day has passed."

"My luck has always been good." Annan smiled modestly.

The chairman of the council took the amulet, recharged it, and gave it back to Annan: "Do what you want to do, no one can stop you... I'm waiting for your good news."

This time Annan can really walk sideways in the new capital. Even if he beats Agarwal, the chairman of the council will think there is some deep meaning.
