Chapter 230 The shadow returns the jewelry to the original owner
Werther and others had no choice but to appease the man's emotions first.
"Sit down and take a rest first, and we'll discuss it slowly." Wile brought a chair.
Ivan whispered to Werther: "Your Highness, do you think this person is being used temporarily, or is he working with the Duke and the others?"
"It's hard to say, but they're probably in the same group, because it's hard for anyone to pretend to be a black shadow. There should be no one on Duke Dark's side who can pretend to be a black shadow."
"That's right. Look at this man's eyes moving strangely. It doesn't look like he has really lost his jewelry, but he looks like he has bad intentions."
"Sir, let's have a cup of coffee and some pies." Tom brought the food up in time.
The man smelled it and suddenly his eyes lit up: "It looks very good."
"There's a lot more, you can eat as much as you want." Tom said with a smile.
"Then I'm welcome." The man started to devour the food.
He finished eating quickly and handed the empty plate to Tom: "Give me another one."
"You can leave after you finish eating." Wile looked unhappy.
"But His Highness the Prince hasn't promised me yet." The man looked at Werther with an evil smile, "If you don't arrest the black shadow, I will tell everyone about the black shadow stealing my jewelry."
Werther suddenly thought of a way. Although he didn't know if it would work, he still wanted to give it a try.
"But the shadow didn't steal your jewelry." Werther frowned, "If you insist on saying that, I have to doubt your motives."
The man was so angry that he jumped up and down: "Why do you say that? It was obviously the shadow that stole my jewelry."
"Who is that black shadow?" Werther said, "Tell me who you suspect. Is it someone from my castle?"
"It must be someone from your castle, and it's that vampire maid Lina." The man said decisively, "It can't be anyone else but her. I saw the long brown ponytail hair and the green ribbon! In the entire Dawn Town, there is only Lina.
That’s the kind of hairstyle.”
It seems that he is determined to frame Lina. Werther thought to himself that when the shadow appeared before, he always covered his hair with a black cloak and a black cloth covering his face. There was no trace of the long brown hair and green ribbon.
.
"When was your jewelry stolen?" Werther continued to ask.
"Seven o'clock in the evening."
"Lina was in the castle at that time and even went out to help me pick some wild vegetables." Witte narrowed his eyes and said, "Some villagers should have seen her at that time."
The man was suddenly stunned: "But I clearly saw a black shadow that looked like a vampire."
"You are lying. There is no shadow stealing your things."
The man rolled his eyes: "If it's not Lina, there is someone else. You must find it, otherwise I will tell everyone that the black shadow stole the jewelry, and the black shadow is Lina, and you are still covering her up."
"You are using strong words." Werther was very angry and even wanted to drive this man out.
But Iron and Wile had already lifted him up and brought him outside the castle. Tom slammed the door shut.
Others in the castle were talking about it.
Margaery sighed: "Sister Linna is really unlucky to be targeted by them. But is she really the shadow?"
"It's very possible." Henry said, "Although she denied it to us, in the entire Dawn Town, who else can fly besides her. Even if there are other vampires or flying humanoid elves coming here to fly.
Go, but they have no reason to help His Highness. Only Lina has reason to do so much for His Highness.
.”
"Hey, hey." Wile looked at Henry helplessly, "You have only been in the castle not long ago, how do you know so much."
"Just asking." Henry shrugged, "It's not easy."
Werther listened to their conversation and agreed in his heart. He now also strongly suspected that the shadow was Lina, but what he didn't understand was that if she was really the shadow, why should she deny it? Is there any difficulty in it?
Early the next morning, Werther ran out of the castle immediately after getting dressed and saw Lina who had returned from the farm. Lina's face was pale and she forced a smile at him. She looked very tired.
"I'm going back to bed." She said this softly to Werther.
Werther carefully observed her black cloak. Her dark green cloak was worn inside out, and it was exactly the same as the cloak of the Shadow Knight.
He just stared at her cloak, and she didn't pay attention. She yawned and walked around him.
Soon, the news about Heiying helping the villagers grow crops spread. However, everyone did not change their prejudice against Heiying.

"Isn't the black shadow a bad guy? Why does he help us farm?"
"There must be some fraud. Maybe these seeds are poisonous or contain black magic, and the crops that grow will eat people to death."
The villagers actually dug up all the seeds planted by Linna and burned them.
Linna was awakened by a nightmare, feeling worried in her heart. She went downstairs and heard people in the castle whispering.
Wile sighed heavily: "Linna worked all night, but all her work was in vain! It's so miserable!"
Margaery touched her tears with a handkerchief: "Sister Linna must be very sad when she finds out about this. Besides, she should be a shadow knight herself, and she is still misunderstood by everyone. It's so pitiful."
Henry whispered: "Be careful if Lina hears you, she has very good hearing."
"I don't like it when people pity me behind my back!" Linna suddenly walked up to them, with an angry look on her face, "Besides, I'm not a shadow, so you don't need to worry about me!"
"Of course." Wile was suddenly frightened by Lina and quickly smiled, "Lina is a very powerful person, we don't need to worry about it at all! Right, Miss Margery, Henry!"
"Yes, yes!" Henry stared at Lina's two suddenly elongated teeth with his eyes motionless, and he hid behind Wile in fright.
Margaery, on the other hand, was not afraid of Lina at all, and just curled her lips at her: "We also mean well, but it makes people uncomfortable that you are so angry."
Linna suddenly woke up, looked at Margaery, blinked her eyes, and smiled apologetically.
"That's right. My attitude just now was not good. I apologize to you. But by the way, what happened?" Lina's tone returned to normal.
"You are so emotional now, Lina. This can easily cause misunderstandings." Wile breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you were going to beat us. In fact, it was nothing. The villagers dug up the seeds you buried and burned them.
.”
"What?" Lina screamed in horror. She lost her previous elegance and was followed by endless loneliness.
Her eyelids were drooped, her face looked very sad, and she said faintly: "Do they think those seeds are poisonous?"
"It seems like that, don't worry about it."
"It's okay. I'm going to write a letter to my family. I haven't contacted them for a long time."
Lina lowered her head, returned to the room, opened the drawer, and pulled out a piece of letter paper.
She wrote in the letter:
Brother, people in the castle have already suspected that I am a black shadow. Maybe Werther is also suspicious of me. I don’t want Werther to know about this. Once Werther knows about it, people may think
Because Werther and I are on the same team, if I do something secretly that may bring notoriety, it will bring unnecessary trouble to Werther.
I had to do something, for Daybreak Town, and even more for Werther. As long as Werther is not sure that I am the Shadow, others may not think that he instructed me to do certain things, and then all the notoriety will be mine.
Back. But now that Heiying has been framed, a lot of unnecessary notoriety has been generated, and the people have a very bad impression of Heiying.
It's probably the forces on Duke Dark's side that are throwing dirty water on me, and they seem to think that the black shadow is me. After all, I am the most likely candidate.
But I still want to continue doing things for Werther as Sombra and follow my original plan. I just hope that my brother will be prepared first. If I encounter danger, I hope you can rescue me.
After writing the letter and sending it, she felt better. This not only complained to her brother, but also reassured her family that they were safe.
No matter what, we still have to go ahead with the original plan, she thought to herself, I found out that the man who came to the castle yesterday got his jewelry from a friend. His friend went bankrupt because of it. Now they are all in Dawn Town,
His friend is a citizen of Daybreak Town. I can't ignore this matter. Lina has already made up her mind to help that person's friend get the jewelry back.
At night, she went out wearing a dark green cloak.
"Where are you going?" Werther asked anxiously before he had dinner, "Can you please not go out today?"
"No, I'm a vampire. Vampires are nocturnal animals. I need to move around more at night. It's good for my health." Lina made an excuse.
"But, I'm very worried." Werther looked at her nervously, "I'm worried that you are the Shadow Knight, and I'm worried about your safety."
Lina didn't expect him to ask directly. It seemed that he had already begun to doubt her and couldn't help but ask.
"I told you I'm not, why don't you believe me." Lina deliberately kept a straight face.
"I know that the Black Shadow Knight is just. If you were him, not only would I not blame you, but I would also be grateful to you."
"I'll be angry if you do this again." Linna walked around him, ran out of the castle, and flew into the night sky.
Werther was so worried that he didn't even have the heart to eat dinner. He ran outside the castle, found a deserted place, and searched for Lina's whereabouts with his superpower eyes.
However, when Werther was accumulating power, Lina had already put on her cloak inside out and covered her face with black cloth, blending into the night.
Werther searched for her for a long time but could not find her.
Linna easily returned the jewelry to its original owner. After the man saw the jewelry beside him being taken away by a black shadow, he screamed in fright. The men of Duke Duke who accompanied him also saw the black shadow.
"It's really the shadow!"
"It actually happened. Now we are not lying. The shadow really stole the jewelry."
"Great, let's go find the lord for comment now!"
"It's too late. I'm sleepy. It's not too late to go tomorrow."
"makes sense."
"However, you can't let others know that Duke Dark sent you here, so you should go find Werther by yourself tomorrow, and we won't follow you."
Several people slept in the hotel, and early the next morning, the man ran out of the castle angrily.
Werther was waiting for Lina at the door, and suddenly saw him again and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Your Highness, I admit that I lied to you in the evening, but the shadow really stole my jewelry last night," he said.
Werther was surprised. He certainly didn't look like he was lying.
