"You didn't even know he was dead?" Sheela frowned and looked at him.

"No, I don't know." The man was pushed back by the team members and hurriedly added, "In the morning, breakfast was delivered to the room."

Sheila Gui looked him up and down and saw that his legs were swaying, it didn't look like he was pretending.

He said to the team members: "Keep an eye on everyone and follow us back to the association for questioning."

The team members dispersed and gathered all the servants and guards.

inside the room.

Wu Heng checked the body and at the same time released the ghost to inspect the surroundings.

But there are no obvious clues.

"How's it going?" Sheela came over and asked.

"He died not long ago, so he should be on the same foot as us." Wu Heng said.

Sheila Gui frowned and looked at the body again, "The murderer took away the head because he was afraid that you would ask about the body."

"should be."

"That means someone knew that you had found this place and came here specially to kill the person so that the clues could be completely cut off here." Xila Gui frowned and analyzed.

It's obvious.

It definitely had something to do with Millicent being kidnapped and killing the guard commander himself.

Wu Heng also said: "The other party should be a high-level professional."

"The speed was too fast. We rushed here directly, and he could still take action before us." Sheila Gui opened the curtains and glanced at the open window.

"It's possible that when we arrested 'Greco', the other party was already dealing with the following matters."

Sheila Gui frowned, "Well, the other party has no chance to kill 'Greco' to prevent you from interrogating the body, so just come here and kill this person."

Having said this, Silla's eyes widened a bit, "There are other people involved."

"Only in this way can we make sense. Let's check the room first and go back to the association to talk to the deacon."

"good!"

The team members dispersed.

A few people checked the room to collect clues, while the others still looked at the servants outside.

When the inspection is almost the same, we return to the association together.

Association, Deacon's Study.

Shiragui told Imiro what happened next.

"The body has been sent to the morgue, and the remaining people are interrogating the servants at that residence."

The head of the capture target was taken away.

Although Imiro was a little surprised, he was not surprised.

He just pondered for a moment and said: "Let the investigators record normally. At the same time, notify all field envoys of the association to be careful about safety and report in time if there is any situation."

"Understood!" The two nodded.

"I will negotiate with the city hall. You continue to investigate this matter, especially Wu Heng. Don't go to sea yet." Imiro spoke again.

"Oh well."

Imiro waved his hand, and Sheila Ge retreated directly.

Wu Heng did not leave.

Imiro asked: "Why, do you still have something to do?"

"Deacon, can that tavern be closed? If this matter spreads, other people should know that the tavern is related to the association." Wu Heng directly expressed his thoughts.

The Nautilus Tavern still provided some useful information.

Moreover, they have all been built and are developing quite well, so it is a bit unbearable to close them down like this.

Imiro still looked at him, "You have also investigated Lao Tong's case. Why haven't you ever thought that others suspected that Lao Tong was the association's spy?"

Um?

This is another way to look at the problem.

As a well-known force on Beacon Street, Lao Tong would not doubt that Lao Tong was the association's spy even if the association also assisted the other party in handling matters.

"Lao Ceng's business method is different and deeply rooted. No one believes it is normal."

Imiro's tone was still calm, "The same goes for your tavern. If you find a reasonable reason to sever ties with your tavern, even if someone suspects it, it won't have much impact."

Wu Heng rescued Millicent, but outsiders didn't know.

Unless someone behind the scenes speaks out, or a blank envelope tells everyone directly, outsiders will not know what is going on.

At most, there was a conflict between the association and the guard commander at the port.

It has nothing to do with the pub.

"Okay, I understand, thank you deacon."

Wu Heng nodded and exited the room.

Return to your office and study room.

Sit for a while.

The door opened, and Anderweil came in with Millicent in a cloak.

"Master, I've brought you back."

Millicent took off his hood and saluted slightly, "My lord."

Wu Heng said: "Weier, you go there again and prepare some food for her."

"Good master."

Anderweil leaves.

Wu Heng looked at Millicent, "Sit down, do you feel any discomfort in your body?"

Millicent carefully sat down aside and subconsciously touched his butt, "It's nothing uncomfortable. Thank you, sir."

"The person who kidnapped you is dead, but there may be others behind the scenes. I will arrange two skeletons for you to protect you."

Millicent nodded, "Okay."

"Well, you will stay at the association for the next two days. Then we will see if there is anything else to do. If not, we will arrange some reasons for you to open the tavern again."

Millicent looked overjoyed. She didn't want to give up all the hard work she had put into the tavern.

"It's my lord."

"It's okay. You've worked hard. After dinner, go back to your room to rest and refresh yourself." Wu Heng said, and then continued to add, "By the way, Philippa has joined the association. She asked me to tell you "One sound."

"Really? That's great." Millicent was a little excited.

Then, he asked Wu Heng about the details of his daughter joining the association.

Wu Heng also briefly explained to her.

The two chatted for a while, and Andweil brought back the food.

Millicent ate carefully, then went to the prepared dormitory to rest.

Wu Heng also left the association and walked towards his residence.

Return to your residence.

After saying hello to Minnie, he entered the radio station room on the third floor.

Picked up the phone and asked: "Philippa, are you there?"

Just as he finished speaking, Philippa's voice came from the other side, "It's time to eat, you missed me."

Wu Heng leaned on the edge of the table, "Your identity as a Whisperer has been confirmed, and you also have a emblem. You can use the emblem to prove your identity wherever you go."

"Really? Damn it, I am also a member of the association." Philippa exclaimed.

"Whenever I have time, I will give the emblem to you. Holding it in your hand can be considered a kind of protection." Wu Heng said.

The person on the other side paused for a moment and replied: "It will take a while. I have been building relations with the Wild Lion Pirates these days."

You can’t always run this way.

Too frequently, the crew might even notice something is wrong.

"No rush, I'll leave it to you when I have time."

"Okay, I'm not in a hurry. You may not be able to use it in my hand. I'm scared to see a place like the association." Philippa said casually.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and continued: "Your mother was kidnapped yesterday and has been rescued now. There is no danger."

"How could this happen?" Philippa's tone suddenly became serious.

"Remember, the last time you came back, the person who gave a speech at the port?"

"That pretty boy?"

"Yes, he seems to have a strong insight. He saw us entering the tavern and talking to your mother, and planned this kidnapping." Wu Heng explained.

"Fuck, what's his name? I'm going to kill his whole family tomorrow." Philippa cursed angrily.

On the sea, pirates are a symbol of toughness and ferocity.

If he threatens his family members, he will also resort to crazy ways to retaliate.

"People have been killed by me, and there are still many things involved in this matter. You should also pay attention at sea, in case there is any information that may also involve you."

Hearing that everyone was dead, Philippa had nothing to say.

He agreed, "Okay, I'll be careful. By the way, can't she open that tavern?"

"It's not necessarily impossible to open it. I will pay attention to the news outside in the past two days. If there is no problem, I will release some false information to let your mother put aside the relationship with the association. Then the pub will be opened."

"Okay, she still likes this pub. If possible, I hope she can keep it open."

"Well, don't worry, I will have someone protect her when the time comes. If the Beacon Street tavern cannot be opened, let her open one outside the association." Wu Heng promised again.

"Hey, thank you." Philippa smiled and thanked her.

"Do you have any information about the pirates?" Wu Heng asked again.

"No, there is no latest news in the past two days. If anything happens, I will inform you in advance."

"Okay, be safe."

"Goodbye dad."

Hang up the call.

Wu Heng went upstairs again and entered the study.

Pour yourself a cup of tea and sit down behind the desk.

He leaned back, contemplating what had happened.

The leader of a guard actually wanted to lure him out and kill him.

Moreover, the second person behind the scenes was found to have his head chopped off, cutting off the subsequent investigation.

Now, the island is starting to feel less safe, too.

But think about it carefully.

These people on Treasure Island were originally pirates.

It is not so strange to be attracted by high bounties and take risks to do something.

"It's not a bad thing. At least remind yourself that there are dangers on the island."

"We still need to speed up the level improvement and ensure the safety of the people around us."

Dong dong dong~!

After speaking softly, there was a knock on the door, and Minnie's voice came in from outside, "Master, it's time to eat."

Wu Heng opened the door, put his arm around the little maid's shoulders and went downstairs.

Minnie talked enthusiastically about the ingredients sent by Shannara and the dishes she developed.

Downstairs, Anderweil also returned from the association.

We sat down at the dining table together and started eating.

Had dinner.

After the three completed training.

Then everyone returned to their rooms to rest.

The next day, Wu Heng went to the association early in the morning.

In the office study room.

Sheela Gui said: "The body without the head yesterday can be confirmed to be the person we are looking for. In the afternoon, the guards came and took away both bodies and said they would investigate the matter later."

"Nothing to say?"

"No, Deacon Imiro was present at the time, and they didn't have any objections." Sheila Gui said with a smile.

Wu Heng nodded, "If you are strong, you are a bull."

"Of course, Imiro also has a high status in the elves, otherwise he would not be placed here." Sheila Gui said with a little pride.

"Really, what status!"

Xilagui blinked at him, but didn't continue talking. She took a sip from the teacup.

Wu Heng didn't continue to ask, and didn't care who was more powerful among the elves, or what their identities were.

He was still from another world.

Who didn't have a special identity?

He also took a sip from the teacup, and then he asked, "What is the occupation of the owner of Treasure Island?"

Xilagui looked up and said uncertainly, "It should be a warrior. There is no specific information."
