The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

"Aquatic King" Coatman naturally understood the principle of doing too little, and after receiving the answer he wanted, he stood up and left without any hesitation.

Emilius, who was in a bad mood, called his secretary Lu Er'an and ordered:

"Have Major General Bright come to see me immediately."

"Yes, Your Excellency, General." Lieutenant Colonel Lu Er'an agreed in a deep voice.

…………

At this time, Joyce was packing his luggage and planned to disappear for a while.

Not only to avoid the possible revenge of Major General Bright, but also to find a suitable opportunity to digest the potion... After all, as a baron, it is difficult for him to act as an "instigator" without any scruples in his daily life.

Joyce had everything packed and ready to go.

At the same time, Bright came to Amyrius's study.

"Your Excellency, please find me."

Amyrius didn't pay attention, but was dealing with the documents on his own.

The atmosphere in the room became increasingly solidified, making Major General Bright, a Sequence Five Extraordinary, feel a lot of pressure.

Finally, Admiral Amyrius put down the pen in his hand and stared at the young major general in front of him who was personally promoted by His Majesty the King:

"Don't you have anything to explain?"

Brett's heart suddenly sank, but he still didn't shed tears without seeing the coffin, and said stubbornly:

"I don't understand, Your Excellency."

"I don't understand!" Amyrius's voice suddenly became louder: "I think you are pretending to be confused!"

"'Sea King' Coatman personally came to me to investigate and declared that he would send you to the court. Only then will you understand!"

After yelling, Mr. Admiral threw out the document at hand: "See for yourself, you are really bold."

Brett caught the document and clenched his fists while reading it.

"This is slander." He argued.

Emilius laughed angrily:

"Slander... Do you want the Church of Storms to get to the bottom of it before you are satisfied?"

Bright resisted the pressure from the demigod and asked:

"What does this have to do with the Storm Church?"

"Because among the people you trafficked there are Storm believers, and a large number of potential Storm believers."

Admiral Amyrius said: "This is the reason given to me by Archbishop Rossid, 'Sea King' Courtman, and I will give it to you now."

What kind of explanation is this? It's obviously an excuse...Bright thought unconvinced, but he would never dare to let the Church of Storms pursue it, otherwise the consequences would only be more serious.

"I did it, but the church is not qualified to judge me." He unwillingly took all the blame.

Admiral Amilius said: "I will submit a report to His Majesty the King. As for the final result, it depends on your luck."

"Thank you, Your Excellency, General."

Brett finally lowered his head and thought to himself: Joyce, you don't think you can kill me like this, dream! You don't even know who you have offended!

"Just stay at home these two days and wait for the final result of Backlund."

Admiral Amyrius gave the final verdict on the matter and did not forget to remind:

"Put away your stupid ideas and stop provoking the Church of Storms."

"I understand, Your Excellency, Admiral." Bright said obediently.

…………

That night, Bright came to No. 14 Stone Street in a grand manner.

He crossed the gate and walked into the villa, turning a blind eye to the patrolling guards. The guards did the same, as if they had not seen anyone break in at all.

It's quite cautious, but it's useless... Bright commented leisurely that as the "Chaos Mentor" of Sequence Five, it is easy to distort the sight of several ordinary people.

But he was wrong a little bit. These escorts were not arranged by Joyce, but were specially arranged by Mr. Hunter after the "assassination incident"...

Brett was very familiar with this villa and found Joyce's bedroom on the third floor with ease... In order to find William's list, he had sent people to search the place carefully, but unfortunately he still couldn't find it.

leading to the current consequences.

He opened the door and sealed the entire bedroom, isolating it from the outside world.

Unfortunately, the bedroom was empty and Joyce was not found.

Brett was stunned for two seconds, and then realized: This guy knew I was coming, so he ran away in advance?

This result made him very unwilling. Brett found Harry again and found out that this was Joyce's most trusted valet, and now he seemed to be the housekeeper's assistant... If it weren't for his superior memory, he wouldn't even bother to remember such a small person.

!

In Bright's eyes, Joyce also belongs to this kind of little person, but it happened that he suffered the biggest failure in his life... It was this unbalanced mentality that led him to come here despite dissuasion.

His whole person exuded a submissive majesty, and he asked in a deep voice:

"Where's Joyce?"

Harry lowered his head and replied tremblingly:

"I don't know...I don't know."

He didn't even know! Bright didn't think that an ordinary person could resist his extraordinary ability. This can only mean that Joyce deliberately concealed his whereabouts.

What a cunning little devil!

…………

In the afternoon of that day, Joyce left No. 14 Stone Street early and followed the map to an inconspicuous house in the dock area.

He knocked on the door and heard a steady voice inside:

"who?"

"Bruce," Joyce said.

The door was opened from the inside, revealing a familiar hairline... no, a familiar Mr. Hunter.

Joyce unloaded his package and walked around the room. The decoration was relatively simple, but the furniture was relatively fresh.

"How long has it been rented for?" he asked sitting on the sofa.

Mr. Hunter replied: "For a year, it is close to the dock area and the rent is very cheap."

"What name did you rent it under?" Joyce asked again.

"Alfred." Hunter said a name that was completely unfamiliar to him, and at the same time looked at Joyce:

"Master, what exactly do you want to do?"

Joyce smiled and said: "Call me Bruce, Alfred."

"Okay, Master Bruce." Mr. Hunter changed his words and asked again:

"Changed your name, moved out of Stone Street, rented a house in the Docklands, and you even brought a lot of luggage... What was the purpose of planning all this?"

Joyce got up and pushed him onto the sofa:

"Be patient, I will explain it to you, but before that, I want to have a drink first."

"Is there any wine here?"

"There are two bottles of Southwell beer in the wine cabinet," Hunter said.

Joyce took it out, drank half of the bottle himself, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said:

"Relax, it's nothing big, it's just that we both have to live here for a while."

"Recently, the situation in Bayam has changed a lot. I have made some small contributions in it, so I chose to hide for a while."

"Is there danger?" Hunter's eyes suddenly became sharp.

Given Major General Bright's temper, it is not impossible to carry out revenge... But he may not dare to do anything too outrageous. After all, I am still a noble... Joyce thought of this and replied:

"There won't be much danger. The reason for hiding is more important to show a posture."

"And, although some people want me to die, there are also people who want me to live."
