Rise of the Empire Total War

Ulrich has his own room. In fact, all officers above the company level can have an exclusive room. This is a benefit for the officers. Those who can be officers are generally nobles, and no nobles would be willing. Crowded in a room with a bunch of stinking GIs.

Ulrich's room was rather messy. Several clothes were randomly thrown on the bed, and a few books were scattered on the floor. Badley, who followed Ulrich in, looked around subconsciously, but he didn't see what he wanted. ID badge.

"Sit down first, wait for me to look for it." Ulrich pointed to the bed casually, and said to Baddeley behind him. The latter glanced at the messy clothes on the bed, sat down without saying anything , but in the next second, he felt his ass was stabbed hard by a sharp foreign object, and he almost cried out. He quickly reached out to touch the foreign object, and within a few strokes, he found a metal nameplate.

"This is!"

Seeing this nameplate, Baddeley suppressed the joy in his heart, hid the nameplate as if nothing had happened, and then chatted one after another. After a while, Ulrich found the book that Baddeley wanted , took the book and handed it over.

After getting the things, Baddeley didn't have the mood to stay any longer. He continued to chat with Ulrich for a while, and then found an excuse to leave.

He didn't feel guilty at all. Although he had a good relationship with Ulrich, in the final analysis he wanted to use him to get close to him. Now that he needed to be used, he had to play his role.

Back in his barracks, Badley found the poison, and it was not difficult to poison the Romans. He just bribed the servant who delivered the food during dinner and asked him to poison the Romans while delivering the food. At the same time, just to be on the safe side, he invited Ulrich to meet in the name of someone near the place where the Romans lived-of course, no one saw him, and Baddeley just wanted to let others see him appearing in that area area.

As for the servant who poisoned him, he was killed by Badley afterwards, and his body was thrown into the cesspit in the barracks. Unless someone deliberately rummaged through it, no one would ever be able to find the body of this tool man.

...

That night, Hariand was poisoned and died. Not only Hariand was poisoned, but several Roman soldiers also fell down. Armed gendarmes rushed there and surrounded the area, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.

Richard, who was still asleep, rushed to Hariand's residence as soon as he heard the news, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw Hariand lying quietly on the bed, not breathing, his face was gray, his lips Turned purple, obviously died of poisoning.

Seeing this scene,

Richard only felt that he was hit hard on the head and dizzy. He had only talked to Hariand during the day, so why did he disappear at night?

"Have you found out what happened?" He stabilized his mind and asked the gendarmerie inspector beside him.

"I only know that he died from poisoning, and the details are still being investigated. However, Your Majesty, the slave who delivered food to General Hariand tonight has disappeared." The Inspector said in a deep voice.

Although his voice was deliberately lowered, he was still heard by Hariand's adjutant. The adjutant named Bibulus suddenly raised his head, looked at Richard and the Inspector, took a step forward, and asked, "Is that slave missing? "

After the words fell, before the two of them answered, he said to himself: "I noticed something was wrong when he came to deliver the food. His expression was really strange, but the general didn't take it to heart... If I had known this would happen, I would have arrested that damned slave!"

"Strange?" Richard frowned slightly. Just as he was about to continue asking, a military policeman suddenly came from outside. He glanced at Bibulus standing there and hesitated. Seeing this, Inspector Garren said, Said: "If you find something, just say it directly."

"Yes." The soldier replied, and he glanced at Bibulus again, and said, "Our people found an identity plate outside the kitchen, which is a bit suspicious."

"Oh? Whose identity plate?" Garen asked.

"It's the captain of the second company of the third brigade of the first brigade, first regiment, Vasek Ulrich."

"What?" Garen's face froze, and he exchanged glances with Richard, who asked, "What is he doing here?"

"It's not clear yet, Your Majesty." The military police replied respectfully, "But our people are going to the barracks of the second company to investigate. One more thing, we asked people nearby, and they all claimed to have seen it during dinner. Ulrich appeared nearby, he was in a hurry, he didn't know what he was doing."

Hearing this, Bibulus became agitated immediately, and he stretched out his hand to grab the gendarme. The latter took a step back in shock and avoided the hand of the Roman adjutant. cried: "It must be that Ulrich! Damn it, he's the poisoner!"

Garen frowned and said, "General Bibulus, we don't have enough evidence, we can't conclude..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Bibulus. The Roman adjutant who had lost his comrades in arms was emotional and roared: "Your people poisoned and killed our general. This is already obvious. Don't you want to quibble?" ?!"

"I warn you! General Hariand is His Majesty's nephew. If you don't hand over the murderer, we will report to His Majesty the Emperor. At that time, even if we travel across the ocean, our army will avenge General Hariand!"

Hearing Bibulus' threats, Garen and Richard looked at each other, feeling a little helpless. Richard firmly believed that Ulrich could not have poisoned Hariand. He had no reason or motive. In other words, The soldiers of the system will not act against non-hostile forces unless Richard personally orders them.

Galen didn't think Ulrich did it either. He glanced at the agitated Roman adjutant, pulled Richard a few steps aside, and said in a voice that could only be heard by two people: "Your Majesty , I think there is some kind of conspiracy in this matter, Ulrich was obviously framed."

"I know." Richard said in a low tone, he glanced at Bibulus without a trace, and said: "The most urgent thing is to find out the poisoned servant first, only by finding him can we understand the truth of the matter, as for Ulri Xi, we have to take care of the emotions of the Romans, let's remove him first and lock him up, let the deputy company commander take his place."

Bibulus didn't know the content of the conversation between Richard and Garren. He looked at the two whispering people, but thought in his heart that the two of them were discussing some plan to deal with him. As an adjutant, he is obliged to take up heavy responsibilities to protect the safety of his compatriots.
