As soon as Grabo said this, the whole place fell into a brief silence.

The grumpy Lorna was the first to get angry. She pulled out her sword with a swish, put it on Grabo's neck, and cursed: "Try saying another nonsense to me?! You bitch,

If you don’t have a good relationship with Chino, why don’t you throw dirty water on him?! Believe it or not, I’ll chop off your dog’s head?!”

Bolton and Kino had no grudges in the past, and they would not believe such a thing rashly. They asked coldly: "Administrative Officer Grabo, think carefully before speaking. Do you dare to take responsibility for your words and deeds?"

"Of course I dare to take responsibility." Grabo didn't make any resistance, letting Lorna hold her sword and explained, "I did have a bad relationship with the Chino administrator, but publicity is public and private is private. I can't do it.

Talking nonsense about this kind of thing."

"The reason why I say he is the murderer is because I have obtained substantial evidence. If your highnesses don't believe it, you can follow me to the scene for inspection. If I say anything nonsense, you can kill me immediately."

Glaber spoke so fully without leaving any room for error that even Lorna hesitated. She was silent for a moment, sheathed her sword, and said coldly: "Lead the way."

In fact, it was not Lorna's turn to decide whether to go or not, but Bolton really wanted to go and see the scene, so he got up and, under the cover of his guards, followed Grabo towards a private house.

Along the way, Grabo looked very gloomy and reported: "Yesterday, the city gate guards reported to me that they found the Kino administrator who entered the city in casual clothes. I thought he came to Thunder Cloud City to find me, but who knew that I

I waited at the house for a long time but didn't see anyone. I really didn't expect that he was actually planning to assassinate His Highness the Prince... This is the scene of his assassination."

Grabo led everyone into a private house that was blocked by the local defenders, went directly to the room on the top floor, and showed it to everyone.

All the furniture in this room had been cleared away, leaving only a table with a large-caliber firearm covered with a cloth. It was the original Barrett M82A1. There were still blood stains on the ground and the remains of the windows.

Judging from the blood distribution, it was obvious that an injured person rolled out of the window.

Glaber explained: "This weapon, which the alchemists call a "sniper rifle," is a weapon from extraterrestrials that was confiscated in the Twilight City banquet bombing last year. It was originally hidden in the Star Castle for research, but it was used for research some time ago.

It was stolen and never recovered... Now we know who stole it."

Bolton frowned, quite puzzled: "You mean... Administrator Chino went to the Star Castle to steal this gun and specifically used it to assassinate me?"

"I can't guarantee the former. Maybe he stole it personally or sent someone to steal it. I won't speculate." Grabo changed the subject and said with certainty, "But the assassination has been confirmed. The shooting just now

After the incident, the nearby defenders heard the sound and rushed in. They found the Kino administrator who was about to escape. Someone shot him with a crossbow, but failed to hit his vitals, and he escaped through the window. "

"No! There's something wrong with what you said!" Solandel suddenly interrupted the conversation and took the initiative to stand up, "This is not an assassination scene! The reason why I jumped on my brother at that time was because the cathedral... is on the north side of the main road.

In the cathedral more than a thousand meters away, I saw a strange reflection in the bell room on the top floor. I felt very dangerous, so I jumped on my brother. That cathedral was the assassination point!"

Grabo was stunned for a moment, with a very confused look on his face: "Your Highness, you must have seen it wrong. You were frightened just now, so your memory may be a little confused."

Solandel said with certainty: "I was indeed frightened, but I definitely remember this incident correctly. There was a reflection there!"

Grabo wanted to say something else, but Lorna slapped him to shut him up: "She said yes! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll break the bridge of your nose!"

Grabo covered his face and said aggrievedly: "Even if there is, it may be the reflection of the glass. The cathedral has so many colorful windows, and the sun is shining brightly today, so reflections are common."

Bolton thought for a while and asked in a deep voice: "Solan, did you see clearly what was reflecting the light?"

Everyone looked at Solandel, who looked confused, lowered her head and muttered: "It's too far, I only saw a ray of reflection there, and then I felt inexplicably dangerous, so I immediately jumped on you, and couldn't see anything else clearly.

...sorry..."

"Silly sister, the last person who should apologize is you. Without you, I would be dead now." Bolton touched Randall's head to express comfort, and then looked at the accompanying guards, "Split your hands.

Go to the cathedral and check the bell chamber to see if there are any traces."

"Yes." Some of the guards left.

"Continue the topic just now." Bolton looked at the blood stains by the window, frowned and said, "Even if it is really Kino who wants to assassinate me, there is one thing I don't understand - he and I only met once at the New Year's banquet.

I have never been against each other, so why would he attack me?"

Grabo's expression became serious. He handed over a document and said quietly: "I'm afraid the complicated procedure of this matter is far beyond our imagination. Take a look at this."

Burton opened the file and took out three gold-encapsulated papers.

Bolton had just finished the Bloodsand Battle not long ago and was extremely familiar with the forces in the desert. He quickly identified this kind of gold paper: "The golden assassination order of the Blood Thorn Society?"

Grabo nodded.

The golden assassination order has special desert anti-counterfeiting technology and is extremely difficult to forge. The three golden assassination orders in Bolton's hands are all genuine, and they are in three editions, the upper, middle and lower versions. Together they form a complete contract:

Client: month.

Inherited by: Hanyi.

Target: Bolton van Dogruland.

No date limit.

Special requirements: None.

...

After looking at it, Bolton's eyes were uncertain: "I'm not surprised that someone entrusted the Blood Thorn Society to assassinate me. After all, I have been fighting outside since I was a child, and I have offended many forces. There are many people who want to kill me...

.It’s just that I don’t understand, what does this golden assassination order have to do with Kino?”

Glaber's expression was very tangled, as if he wanted to hide something, but after thinking about it, he still lowered his head and said it: "First of all, I hope to obtain the royal family's forgiveness on behalf of the Troy family - my good friend, Irene...

Troy has done some disgraceful things."

Bolton asked: "Eileen Troy...you mean the former administrator of Thundercloud City? What did she do?"

Grabo shrank his head and said: "After the Twilight City bombing last year, Brooke Troy died. Irene always thought it was Chino's fault. But as you know, after the on-site investigation, the situation turned out to be "Judge" Barty

Lord Doguland acquitted Kino, which made Irene's mental state very extreme for a time, so she... She secretly contacted the Blood Thorn Society and signed a golden assassination order, preparing to hire assassins to assassinate Kino

."

A city-level administrator actually tried to assassinate another city-level administrator with the help of the Desert Blood Thorns. This is simply a huge political scandal! There seemed to be anger burning in Bolton's eyes, and he wished he could do it now

Grabo's head flew away with a slap, but the current situation was urgent. He did not pursue the matter first, but asked coldly: "As far as I know, Executive Irene was poisoned later. Is it related to this?"

Is it related?"

Grabo said quietly: "Don't you think it's strange? Irene asked the Blood Assassin to assassinate Kino. Kino did not die, or was even attacked by the assassin. Instead, Irene was poisoned. This is not common sense at all!

unless..."

Bolton realized something, and his expression quickly darkened, as if he was about to drip water: "Go on."
Chapter completed!
