After the old king learned of the drastic changes in the palace, his expression did not change much. He had experienced all kinds of storms and waves in his life, so he had long developed the habit of keeping his emotions and anger hidden.
The old king sat down, threw the empty wine glass in his hand on the table, took a napkin and carefully wiped the wine stains on his hands.
"Iron Hand, if I continue to leave this matter to you, how long will it take you?"
The old king spoke as if there was no one around, and there was a dead silence in the banquet hall. Although the officials or wealthy businessmen pricked their ears, they all kept their postures sideways or with their backs turned, and no one dared to look directly at the old king.
"Three days."
The mission period was only three days, so Su Xiao answered simply. If the murderer could not be found within three days, his Iron Hand identity would be stripped away.
"Okay, I'll give you three days."
The old king was also very straightforward, but he did not say what would happen if Su Xiao could not find the murderer within three days. Some things did not need to be so straightforward.
It can be seen from the old king's previous "momentary gaffe" that the development of things has now been beyond the control of the old king. It is strange enough that the little princess died in the back garden of the palace. If her death was just a provocation, then the queen and Ka
The suicide of the commander of the Lun Army was a huge conspiracy.
Su Xiao walked out of the banquet hall with Bubu Wang and five guards. These five guards have been completely following Su Xiao's command in the near future and are the top cannon fodder + thugs.
While walking out of the banquet hall, Su Xiao began to think. Judging from the current situation, in order to cover up the traces, the murderer almost emptied everyone present except Su Xiao, Bubo Wang and five imperial guards.
eyewitness.
The commander of the Karen Army died of suicide by cutting his throat, and the other witnesses committed suicide by drinking poison. According to Su Xiao's observation, the poison the queen took was the same as the poison taken by the direct guards of the royal family. In other words,
Someone offered them the same poison.
Covering up the traces means that the murderer did not dare to confront the royal family, at least not in the palace, so he hid his head and tail and destroyed the body to eliminate traces.
There is one thing that Su Xiao still can't figure out, that is, the murderer went to great lengths to arrange a series of plans, including the queen and the army commander, just to kill Charlene Herbert?
What's different about Charlene Herbert? At least in Su Xiao's opinion, there's nothing special about this girl except having sex with a man too early. Her physical fitness is only that of an ordinary person, and her appearance is pretty, but she's not considered a
So beautiful, as for the figure...what kind of figure can a 13-year-old girl have?
Charlene Herbert has no special energy in her body, nor is she an important figure in this power struggle.
Su Xiao thought quickly in his mind, and various possibilities appeared in his mind. After a series of thoughts, Su Xiao was surprised to find that he did not find any valuable information. Sure enough, his reasoning ability was only average.
Su Xiao was not surprised to find this situation. He had never thought that he could find the murderer with his own reasoning ability. No one is perfect.
Su Xiao does not have very strong reasoning ability, but he has the position of Iron Hand. The Saint-Saudin Kingdom is a huge kingdom. It is composed of the territories of five kingdoms. In addition, the land is rich, so the Saint-Saudin Kingdom
The population is between 300 and 500 million. As for the specific population, it is impossible to calculate it based on the current level of science and technology.
Considering the technological level of the world of Shia, this amount of population is already an exaggeration. However, considering the huge area of the Shia continent, it actually makes sense that there would be such a large population. You must know that this is the total population of human beings.
In terms of quantity, the Kingdom of Saint Sodin is the only human kingdom in the world of Shia.
Even if there are hundreds of millions of people, the Saint-Saudin Kingdom is vast and sparsely populated. Therefore, the royal family strongly advocates procreation. For the Saint-Saudin Kingdom with very abnormal farming technology, a large population may cause people to live in poverty and starve to death.
Not very likely.
There is a potato-like crop in the Kingdom of Saint Sodin called 'Keba'. The viability of this thing is at the level of a weed. If the land is fertile enough, Keba can grow to the size of a washbasin.
Not only that, the Kingdom of Saint-Saudin also has very advanced technology for the cultivation of crops such as wheat. Things similar to plows have long been invented. What is even more bizarre is that the civilians of the Kingdom of Saint-Saudin actually know the grafting technology.
If the technological level of the Saint-Sodin Kingdom is similar to that of medieval Europe, then its farming is at least several hundred years ahead.
Because of this, the Kingdom of Saint Sodin can maintain a large population base and have been at war with the Necrons for thousands of years.
Among this huge population base, there will of course be talents in various fields, such as detectives with incredible reasoning abilities.
Detective is a popular profession in this world. Some great detectives can even be recognized by the royal family. Their status is lower than that of officials, but higher than that of merchants and other industries.
There are many famous detectives, and as long as Su Xiao gives an order, all the detectives in the royal capital will be forcibly snatched away.
Not only a detective, Su Xiao also needs other people. This mission is not to kill a specific target, but a reasoning type. His own reasoning ability is not strong, so he will use his authority to make up for it.
An excellent detective is a necessary condition. Of course, Su Xiao also needs a 'know-it-all' who knows everything about the big and small forces in the capital.
Not only a detective and a know-it-all, Su Xiao also needs a complete and safe intelligence channel.
As for detectives, Su Xiao will certainly not search for it personally, as that would be a waste of time.
"Take it with you and go find Joe Valentine and ask him to get the best detective in the capital within 2 hours."
Su Xiao threw the golden lion pendant to a guard. The guard quickly disappeared from Su Xiao's sight. Su Xiao looked at the other guard. These guys all wore metal helmets.
Only one pair of eyes is shown, and they have no names.
"When you go to the second princess, tell her that the Iron Hand needs her intelligence network in the royal capital temporarily."
Of course, Su Xiao will not be stupid enough to investigate this matter alone. He will mobilize all available means to complete the hidden side mission.
Now that there is no clue about this matter, the only thing Su Xiao has to do is not to search for clues all over the world, but to wait for the murderer to come to him.
This was not Su Xiao's delusion. Almost all the people who had witnessed the first murder scene were dead. Only Su Xiao, Bubu Wang, and five imperial guards had been to the scene and examined the body of the little princess.
If the murderer wants to be completely silenced, he will definitely get rid of Su Xiao. As for Bu Bu Wang and the five imperial guards, the imperial guards are still worth getting rid of. It is unlikely that Bu Bu Wang will attract hatred.
.
As long as the other party wants to get rid of Su Xiao, they will definitely send someone to assassinate him. As long as someone comes to assassinate him, Su Xiao's chance will come.
Su Xiao is not good at reasoning, but he is good at fighting. Once the opponent chooses to use force to solve the matter, Su Xiao will be confident to complete this hidden side mission.
As for the identity of the other party who is afraid of the Iron Hand, don't be kidding. The other party dares to kill the little princess in the palace and is not afraid of the Iron Hand at all.
Now, Su Xiao wanted to give the other party a chance, so he put all the force around him away and stayed alone in a place that seemed safe but was actually not safe. That place was the Iron Hand's mansion.
