Powell had been in Coldwind City for several months and had no money in his pocket. After he arrived at Banshee Castle, he secretly went out of the city to find Phil Longlegs to report to work, mainly to get some activity funds, otherwise there would be no money to live in the hotel.
Five kilometers away from the city is already very remote. It has to pass a section of rotten road, two cemeteries, and three barren forests. There are several villages on the road, and only dogs bark at night.
Powell rode past, which also caused the villagers to drive away vigilantly.
The long-legged family fell into disarray and lived in a small manor.
Powell came a few months ago. At that time, people came and went in the manor, and the family members were in the same hatred and united under the same crises.
There are parties every day, oaths are being taken every day, and passionate scenes emerge endlessly. We abandon past grievances and work together for revenge.
Beautiful words are easy to say, but enthusiasm can't match reality.
In just a few months, the original busy manor was very deserted. There were a lot of weeds on both sides of the road, and the leveled road was potholes again. The gate was closed and never again.
Because the Buche family's assistance is not free, many people who believe in "Long Legs" would rather change their surnames than be exploited.
Powell rode a bad horse to the trench outside the manor and called the door. The torch crackled and burned on the fence. The guard shrank behind the wall, slowly moving the probe.
The guards of the former manor were fierce and fierce. The current guard is in tatters, old-fashioned, and slow to speak, for fear that he is not deaf. After Powell shouted for a long time, he reluctantly went to report.
Half an hour later, a hanging basket was put down on the wall, and Powell had to climb up the rope by himself. As for the bad horse he rode, he can only be tied outside the manor.
There were not a few torches in the manor, and there were black rumblings everywhere. Except for the bugs at night, there were no servants who were watching at night. Not even a few sentries can be seen.
Think about it a few months ago, the Longlegs family had servants on duty 24 hours a day in the city lord's mansion in Coldwind City. The masters only need to take a mouthful at any time, eat, drink and sleep, and they can be satisfied with whatever they want.
But now...
There is not even a decent house in the manor, and even Phils himself can only live in a soil yard with a two-story wooden house. It's like'nongjiale'.
After Powell came in, he could only stand outside the courtyard waiting for an interview.
Outside the yard stood an armed attendant on duty, lazily standing against the wall, uninterested in outsiders visiting.
Powell asked him where did the rest of the family go? The answer was: "They're all gone, and those who haven't gone to war with Bishop.
Even if this battle is won, the long-legged family won't get much benefit. Everyone is not stupid, all who can go are gone. We have nowhere to go. "
This was too blunt, and it took Powell's words for a moment.
Let me ask where is the "Wizard Bank"? The attendant said that he didn't know, "I haven't seen him for several days."
This is clearly'the tree fell and the hunger scattered'.
Listening to Powell's coldness, he subconsciously felt that it was time for him to find another home. It's a troubled time now, maybe the powerful Buche family would be a good choice.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement in the soil yard of'Nongjiale'.
If he had been in Coldwind City in the past, Powell would have tolerated such negligence. Aristocratic masters are often busy having fun and don't take the reports of their subordinates seriously. Not to mention asking him to wait for a few hours, waiting for a few days to meet is common.
Sometimes the master forgets himself, and Powell has to run a few times to remind him.
But now I understand that the family is deteriorating and Mr. Detective has become impatient-Phils. Long legs, you are in such a desolate situation, what else
The fence of the yard in the manor is not very high, and you can see the situation inside with a little jump on your feet.
Powell lightly scratched the wall, his head poked out but saw a scene of horror-in the dirt yard, another attendant was opening his mouth, rushing out from the gate of the house in extreme horror.
The attendant's face was twisted, and his body suddenly split. A sharp blade of light passed through and cut it in half. Two corpses snapped to the ground, and blood sprinkled on the ground.
Strangely, the extremely miserable picture is completely silent. There was no sound from the death attendant's yelling, fierce slashing, and the tragic state of the body falling to the ground.
Powell's heart tightened, and he quickly shrank his head. He was sweating all over, and his teeth were shaking and rattling.
There is no doubt that something went wrong!
Someone launched an attack at night. There is only one reason for the lack of sound—silence. It still covers the entire house on a large scale.
The blood that had been killed in the house shed all over the ground, but it was silent outside a fence. To do this is not easy, you must understand the defense of the entire manor, including a lot of warning arcane.
Don't think about it, this is definitely a ghost.
Who is the attacker? What was the motive for the murder? What are the consequences of this
Powell's mind turned, thinking that the best thing he should do is-run away!
The attacker used silent technique, just not wanting to disturb too many people, only to secretly get rid of the work. But if anyone finds out something and yells, he must be the first to get rid of it.
and so... ... .
I didn't see it, I didn't see anything. I am a blind man!
Powell comforted his chest, twisted and walked out slowly, pretending to be natural. But he didn't walk a few steps, and a cold drink came from behind, "Hey..., where do you want to go?"
It's finished, it was discovered.
Mr. Detective was going to be scared to pee, and he felt that he was going to die soon. He turned around stiffly and tremblingly, but found that it was the armed attendant on duty outside the yard who called him.
The other party also stood outside the yard fence, as if it was strange how Powell left suddenly, "Your Excellency Phil did not let you go. You have to keep waiting. You have to wait until dawn."
Wait for a ghost, there is a massacre in the house. As long as you put your feet on the wall, you will see that the people inside are going to die, and you are guaranteed to freak out.
Can't I wait for the dead to turn into ghosts to come to me
Although the Longlegs family has been ruined, it is the inviter of the Bouche family to start the current war.
Dare to run to the outside of Banshee Fort to kill Phils. Long legs, what kind of cruel person is this? Don't put the Buche family in your eyes at all.
Powell hasn't figured it out yet, but he doesn't want to disturb the muddy water. He can't say that he has found something wrong, so he can only make up an excuse: "I want to make it easier."
The foolish attendant accepted this excuse, but walked over and said: "It just so happens, I want to make it easier too. Together, together."
Who wants to be with you
Can you let Lao Tzu leave alone
Powell was already frantic, but was pulled by a fool's attendant on his shoulders like a friend. The two of them had an awkward chat of "you say, I say", and they went to find the latrine together.
Walking out of a hundred meters, Powell smelled a pee. He thought he was in the toilet, but after a few seconds he realized that it was a foolish attendant peeing his pants. He asked more frantically: "Man, what are you doing?"
If you want to go to the bathroom, I will be with you. What do you mean when you pull me to pee the crotch
The fool's attendant was weak in his legs, and leaned on Powell's support like a limp. He even cried out loud.
"What's the matter with you?" Powell's scalp was about to explode, feeling inexplicable.
The fool's attendant said sadly, "My legs are so weak that I can't walk anymore."
Is there a mistake? It's just going to the toilet. Not only did you pee on your pants, but you also told me that your legs were soft? Do you want me to change your diapers later
The idiot attendant continued to cry: "A strong blood wafted from the house, which is absolutely abnormal. Your Excellency Phils hasn't called you for so long, something must have happened inside.
I heard that there are some weird methods in this world that can kill people silently. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be true. It was terrible, my heartbeat almost stopped.
You said to find the toilet, so I decided to go with you. If I hadn't held your shoulders, I would have been unable to walk. Brother, help, drag me away. Thank you. "
Thank me? no need.
Powell immediately let go of the'oil bottle' and ran out of the manor. But he didn't run very far, and the left attendant shouted, "Come on, there is a long-legged iron man with Phils running here."
Powell ran faster and cursed at the same time: "I have never been loyal to Phils. Long legs!"
