Walking out of the guard camp headquarters building, the street scene outside is already full of lights. Ruit City has attracted a large number of business groups in the past two years. The streets and alleys are crowded with various shops. Most of these products are available.
Transported into the dry cloth plane.
The bustling night makes the city full of vitality. The closer it gets to night, the more people there are on the street.
Surdak suddenly stopped before bending down to get into the magic caravan, and said to Samira who was following behind:
"Samira, I leave this matter to you to investigate."
Samira said absently: "Oh..."
After sitting in the carriage, Siya was still curled up on the soft leather sofa and sleeping soundly. Suldak sat down next to Siya, and then lowered his voice slightly and said:
"I always feel that this case is related to the person we just saw."
"What happened just now? What happened to you just now?" Gary Decker was the last one to get into the car and asked Samira.
Samira told what had just happened. Gary Decker frowned slightly, took out the investigation report and looked at it again, and asked: "Do you think there is any relationship between the cemetery owner and the necromancer?"
relation?"
"They are the only people who like to deal with dead people." Suldak said.
Samira lowered her head and sighed as she glanced at the glass slippers on her feet. If she had just worn leather boots that she usually wore, maybe that person wouldn't have been able to run away.
The restaurant was not too far away. Suldak and Samira had just returned from the dance and had little appetite, so they just ate a little with Carrie Decker.
After dinner, Surdak took Thea, who had been waiting in the carriage obediently since she woke up, back to the castle.
Gary Decker didn't want to return to the military camp so early, so he took Samira for a walk on the streets of Ruit City. Gary Decker was nearly 1.9 meters tall and was considered very tall among women, especially
Wearing tight-fitting leather armor and having long and straight heads, he is extremely eye-catching when walking on the street.
Wearing a beautiful white gauze skirt, Samira looked a bit petite in Carrie Decker, but her elf-like face easily became the focus of the eyes of pedestrians on the street.
Samira was used to being watched secretly by others and turned a blind eye to those people.
However, after Gary Decker was promoted to the commander of the Guard Battalion, he saw the Knights of the Guard Battalion patrolling on the street. Every time he saw them stopping to salute when they rode past, Gary Decker would also stop and return the salute.
She has only been the leader of the Construct Knights for more than a month. She has not yet established enough prestige in the hearts of these Construct Knights. She does not want to become an arrogant and rude leader in the eyes of these Construct Knights, so she
I usually pay attention to these details.
The second Constructed Knights formed by Surdak are basically the elite warriors in the lord army of the Ganbu plane. These warriors have experienced the hell demon war in the Ganbu plane and have a great influence on Surdak.
High loyalty.
Hathaway was walking beside Carrie Decker, but she kept thinking about the scene in the magic caravan in the evening.
If the necromancer hadn't been there, maybe he would have kissed her... Her cheeks felt a little warm.
"I think the most suitable time to go to the cemetery to investigate and get some information is at night. How about... If you don't want to go back to bed so early, would you like to go and have a look later?" Gary Decker
I asked Samira excitedly.
"...Okay!" Samira came back from her trance and replied.
"Samira, do you know that there seem to be some changes in you recently?" Gary Decker said casually as he walked in front.
"What?" the half-elf archer asked Gary Decker.
Gary Decker lowered his head and got close to Samira's ear, and said to her mysteriously: "You look like a silly sweetheart in love who worries about gains and losses."
Samira stood in the street with a stunned look on her face.
…
Hathaway was lying on a soft big bed, her belly was obviously swollen and hidden under the silky brocade quilt. She put her hands on both sides of her belly, turned her body over with some difficulty, and let herself lie on her side for a while. She was getting closer to giving birth.
The closer she gets, the huge belly puts a lot of burden on her body. Even when she sleeps, she has to turn over frequently to relieve the pressure of her belly on her body.
She smiled and looked at Suldak sitting beside her, her eyes as gentle as water.
Suldak would take a short while every night. He would hold a book and read a short paragraph before Hathaway fell asleep. Sometimes he would wait for Hathaway to fall asleep before leaving.
Worried about accidentally touching Hathaway's belly, Suldak almost always sleeps on Beatrice's side these days. Suldak has been quite busy recently, so before falling asleep,
It can be said to be a rare time for the two of them to get together.
Suldak put his head close to her belly and could feel that the little guy inside was very dishonest.
"The nobles in the city have been talking about you all day long. They complained that your punishment of the knights in the guard camp was a bit too harsh, saying that you harmed the interests of the nobles in order to win the support of the civilians in Ruit City." Hathaway
Tell Surdak the latest news.
"I heard that when some old families talk about you, they always add the prefix of cruelty or dictatorship."
Then, she added in a pretendingly relaxed tone.
Suldak kissed Hathaway's smooth forehead, and then said with a smile: "Are you saying that I was originally born as a commoner, so although I was canonized as a noble, I still have the bad roots of being a commoner in my bones.
?When I came back from the Bailin plane this time and passed by Bena City, Marquis Luther also reminded me that I need to properly repair the tense relationships with these old families."
"Speaking of which, I have no prejudice against anyone. I just hope it can be a little fair. I don't want anyone to hinder the development of Ruit City. Whoever stands in the way, I will step up and kick them away.
.”
Surdak expressed his thoughts. There was nothing wrong with the second half of this sentence. A great lord should have such courage, but the first half of the sentence might cause some trouble to the nobles.
Because in the Green Empire, there was no inequality between nobles and commoners.
In the Green Empire, there are several codes specially revised for nobles.
Hathaway finally saw Suldak's stubborn side.
Sometimes, Surdak would regard many of the long-standing privileges of the nobility as inequality for the common people... This is the problem.
But these topics should not be overly discussed between two people.
Hathaway smiled faintly and said to Suldak: "Old Earl Benton has passed away. The news has been officially transmitted in the afternoon."
This old Earl Benton is the father of the Minister of Logistics, Alan Benton. He is also an influential old nobleman in Luyter City. His biggest regret in his life is that his achievements have not allowed him to be promoted to the rank of Marquis.
.
"How could it happen that he died at this time? Are there any young people from the Benton family in the guard camp?" Suldak asked with a frown.
He was worried that someone would make a fuss out of this matter, such as 'The Consul of Surdak dismantled the Luyter City guard camp, causing Earl Benton to die of illness'.
"The logistics department and the guard camp have always been at odds. There is no way that Allen Benton would send his family members to the guard camp..." Hathaway said to Suldak.
It can be seen that Hathaway has now successfully entered the circle of ladies.
Suldak put down the book in his hand, thought for a moment and then asked: "When is the funeral?"
The maid brought over a glass of milk to help with sleep. Suldak took it and helped Hathaway sit on the head of the bed.
"There will be a farewell ceremony tomorrow morning, and then he will be buried in the Benton family cemetery." Hathaway said.
"Do I need to attend?" Surdak asked.
"Of course, and you are also required to give a speech at the funeral, unless you are busy with official duties, then I will go for you, and of course I don't have to give a speech..." Hathaway said.
"I'd better go in person." Suldak said without any choice.
Then he walked to the terrace of Hathaway's room and said to Thea, who was swimming in the swimming pool: "Thea, push off all the things that happened in the morning. If you can't push them off, change the time."
Siya had just sobered up and was lying on the marble at the bottom of the swimming pool blowing bubbles. When she heard Suldak's shout, she quickly got out of the water and agreed loudly:
"knew……"
The water surface of the swimming pool suddenly sparkled...
