King K City is located in a private mountain village thirty kilometers away from the palace.
This villa belongs to the Dark Palace, which has properties all over the continent, and there are also many buildings and properties within the royal city.
However, most of the buildings cannot be displayed in public, so naturally they will not be moved here with great fanfare.
After moving out of the hotel, Wen Li never went back to the palace. Instead, he chose this private place to live because he wanted to be quiet.
When contacting her privately, Lu Min gave Yin Sa his address, but stated that their wife wanted to have a good rest recently, and Yin Sa did not invite anyone to invite her.
A series of consequences caused by the previous Heavenly Palace Change are still being cleared up. Yin Sa herself is also very busy, so of course she cannot take care of Wen Li.
Wen Li didn't like going over to join in the fun at this time, so he chose this place to live.
When I got up in the morning, it started to rain lightly outside. The drizzle was dense in the mountains, carrying the unique fragrance of soil and trees.
Wen Li was sitting at the round table outside the room, preparing to have breakfast.
After Fu Yuxiu bought this villa, he made corresponding adjustments to make it more comfortable and added some of the original architectural style of Country G.
Living here doesn't feel uncomfortable at all in a foreign country.
"Boss, it's been almost three days since he settled down. Don't you plan to see him yet?" Xia Chen asked while biting the sandwich in his mouth.
When the palace was invaded by Ni Chang, Wen Li ordered to bring back the leaders of the mercenary organization who had accepted Ni Chang's commission.
The people were placed in this villa, but the boss had never seen them since the moment he brought them back.
Their leader asked to meet the boss several times, but the boss didn't agree, so he kept whetting their appetite until now.
During this period, the boss never went over to see them.
Wen Li picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee, "How have you been these two days?"
"It's quite calm. There's no fuss or fuss. It's time to eat and sleep. But yesterday, I was asked to have a sandbag to practice boxing with."
It's impossible for people like them to stay here and have some free time. After only three days of free time, they couldn't stop. It's probably that their hands and feet are almost getting rusty.
The boss ordered them to treat each other with courtesy, and he agreed to all their reasonable requests.
However, this leader is really able to keep his composure. He has been able to stay calm for the past three days. He is really patient.
"It's almost time to pass." Wen Li put down his cup and stood up.
Now that you have brought someone here, you can't keep him there forever.
In a purely wooden-style room, a leather sandbag hangs from the beam, and a shirtless man is punching hard.
The men sitting around the edge were all staring at the man sweating.
These people are used to being busy. When did they get locked up here with such leisure? When they were tricked into coming here, they also wanted to resist.
But the young man just said something calmly. The most accurate snipers were surrounded from all directions. There were eight sniper rifles alone. If you want to try it, please feel free to do so.
Such a sentence interrupted all their fantasies.
Since the other party has made up his mind to deceive them, he must be well prepared.
However, these people did not treat them harshly. They had all the food and clothing provided, and even catered to their tastes. All they ate were their hometown dishes.
Everything is fine, but there is no freedom.
"Sir, how long are we going to stay in this damn place?"
So far, they have not seen what the person who arranged to deceive them looks like.
Being locked up here like this, I'm afraid people will go crazy.
The sandbag spun in the air several times and then stopped. The man took the towel handed over by his subordinate and wiped the sweat off his body.
This room was originally equipped with a sofa, TV, and all ordinary furniture and furnishings, but after they changed it, it looked more like a martial arts arena at first glance.
"If someone invites us here, they can't possibly spend time and energy raising us here properly."
He threw the towel in his hand to the men beside him, sat down and took a drink of water.
"If you ask me, it's all that brat. If he hadn't lied to us, we wouldn't have been imprisoned here." The people on the side said indignantly.
They had already arrived at the palace according to their original route, but the young man who came out halfway, wearing the uniform of a palace guard, deceived them.
Except for a few generals who were imprisoned here, the rest of their subordinates were also taken to various military camps and imprisoned.
They traveled thousands of miles to reach K country, but the trip ended without firing a single shot.
It's really speechless.
He would definitely break him if he saw that boy again.
"Sir, we are imprisoned here and now we don't even know what is going on outside. So what are we going to do?"
You have to find a way to know what's going on outside now.
Ruilai listened to his subordinates' words, folded his legs and sat down, listening to his subordinates' complaints.
At the same time, the door was opened from the outside, and Xia Chen stood at the door, "Mr. Ruilai, our boss wants to see you."
Three whole days passed, and the other party finally let go and saw them.
The people under his command looked at Ruilai excitedly, "Sir,"
Rylai looked at the two people closest to him and said, "Come with me."
This man knew the rules quite well and followed him with only two of his subordinates.
Xia Chen led the people along the annex where they were detained to the main building. Wen Li was already sitting on the corridor waiting.
When Ruilai went out, he looked around. The furnishings here were different from those in other countries. They seemed to be a fusion of architectural styles from other countries. There were quite a few pavilions, waterside pavilions and modern buildings.
Living in such an environment is very pleasant and comfortable.
He has become familiar with Country K over the years. Among the famous buildings in the royal city, there is no information about this place.
After walking for a while, Rylai saw someone sitting with his back to them.
The back was slender, and it looked like it was a girl. Ruilai stopped in his tracks. The back seemed a little familiar.
"Please." Xia Chen walked around to the seat opposite Wen Li and gestured.
Ruilai took two steps forward and sat down opposite Wen Li. When he raised his eyes, he saw clearly the girl sitting opposite.
The figure from behind was so familiar that he immediately remembered who this person was.
Back in the imperial capital of Country G, he accepted a commission to attack the Royal Hotel for the sake of the eldest lady of the Li family.
That was the territory of the Fu family. After he was captured, Fu Yuheng moved his hands in anger. At that time, she was the one who stood up to stop the man.
"It's you." Ruilai looked at the person in front of him and said.
"Long time no see." Wen Li replied.
When he took the person back from Fu Yuheng for interrogation, Wen Li failed to understand Ruilai's answer.
Now that I think about it again, it’s terrifying to think about it.
"So you are the one who has imprisoned us these past few days." Ruilai said, his eyes still full of vigilance, "What do you want to do?"
Wen Li pushed the poured coffee over and looked at the person opposite, "I want to talk to Commander Ruilai." Ruilai looked at her silently. The three days of house arrest were to dampen their spirit, but also They are losing their arrogance bit by bit.
Nowadays, people are treated as slaves and others are treated as fish and meat, and they can only be slaughtered by others.
"I want to know who is Commander Ruilai's employer when he comes to Country K this time?"
After Wen Li asked this question, Ruilai was stunned.
This was the answer he expected. Their people were deceived as soon as they entered K country. No, the other party obviously didn't just want to kill them.
Otherwise, it would have been nice to have killed him directly, and we wouldn't have spent so much time imprisoning him.
"I remember that you seem to be the wife of the head of the Fu family, so you are more or less familiar with our industry. We have an obligation to keep all the client's information confidential."
This is the minimum requirement for a mercenary. If you cannot do this, you will naturally not be able to gain a foothold in this industry.
"Of course I know the rules of mercenaries, but now I'm not asking Mr. Reilai, I'm asking you to make a choice." The cup in Wen Li's hand was placed on the table without hesitation.
This was a naked threat. Ruilai looked at the girl in front of him.
When he first saw him in the imperial capital, he felt that this person looked very familiar, but he didn't know where to start with this feeling of familiarity.
I heard that the head of the Dark Palace was married. The people who were in charge of guarding the entire villa with cold faces did not say a word, but the mark embroidered on their shoulders was the symbol of the Dark Palace.
You can generally guess that this is the boundary of the Dark Palace.
To be able to give orders here, the girl in front of her must be the legendary lady in the dark palace.
"Ma'am, are you threatening me?" Riley asked.
Wen Li moved his fingers on the potted plants on the table in front of him, "It's not a threat, it's a request. Those who understand the current situation are heroes. If Mr. Ruilai can agree to cooperate with me, I guarantee that your business will develop better in the future than it does now." .”
"Mr. Ruilai, you are not clear about the idea of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade. Furthermore, we only want a piece of entrustment information from you, not all the information. You can definitely compare this transaction." Xia Chen He spoke.
What the boss wants to know is who is behind the commission case they took on regarding King K's Palace.
"We have signed a contract with our customers and will not disclose their privacy against their wishes."
This is the most basic principle.
"Don't worry, he won't have another chance to cause trouble for you."
Ruilai was stunned after hearing Wen Li's words. What did she mean
"I remember you said something to me back then, about the client who hired you to attack the Royal Hotel. The woman next to you looks a lot like me?"
Wen Li didn't take these words too seriously at first, but now he thinks about it differently.
If you study this more carefully, there is another layer of meaning in it.
"The person who hired you shouldn't be Ni Chang, right?"
It was originally a calm tone, but she heard something aggressive.
Ruilai quickly distinguished the importance in his mind, and it seemed that he had no choice.
"The person who hired me is indeed not Ni Chang..."
When they wanted to take Li Li away at the Imperial Hotel, in a place like the Imperial Capital, they suspected that it was the enemies of the Li family who did it.
But that's not the case at all now.
Wen Li has been wandering around for these years. Compared with Li Li, Wen Li's life experience is more difficult to investigate.
If the person who hired Ruilai was in King K's palace, he would have only one purpose for arresting Li Li.
It was found out that she was the daughter of Princess Lejia.
All these are connected in series. It seems that in the palace, besides Hatas, there are other people who know the news that Le Jia is not dead.
In this case, the murderer of her parents is very likely to be in the palace.
Of course, Ruilai didn't know what Wen Li was thinking, but she was right in saying that those who know the current affairs are heroes.
In this world, the strong has always been the king, and Wen Li will not let them go if he does not make his relationship with King K's royal family clear.
All those imprisoned here will only die.
This little girl looks innocent and harmless, but she may not be innocent and harmless when she strikes.
Xia Chen on the side was obviously stunned after hearing Ruilai's words. So the death of the eldest brother's parents really had something to do with the K royal family.
The person who hired them to arrest Li Li definitely did so after finding out the true identity of Li Li's parents.
Ruilai looked at the person opposite. After listening to his words, the person opposite didn't seem to have any emotional fluctuations.
It is already remarkable to be able to restrain one's emotions so thoroughly that one cannot distinguish between joy and anger.
"Thank you Mr. Ruilai for your cooperation. In two days you will be able to return the same way. If you need anything, you can give orders to the people below at any time." Wen Li said.
Xia Chen understood what she meant and led the people away from the corridor.
Wen Li's fingertips subconsciously flicked the ring on his ring finger, and something that was about to come out was already clear.
After confirming that the murderer was in the palace, Wen Li generally had the answer in his mind.
"Madam, according to Rylai, should we go back and ask Hatas directly?"
It was Lejia who was sentenced to death by Hatas, and Hatas's attitude towards his wife made it clear that he must know her identity.
Why did Le Jia fake his death back then? Who else knows about Le Jia's fake death? Starting from these aspects, we will definitely be able to find out who the murderer of Madam's parents is.
"Now that it's confirmed, of course we have to go back and ask, but we are not the ones to ask." Wen Li suddenly smiled.
After a while, Xia Chen returned and brought some news.
"Boss, Princess Lejia's grave has been opened."
These words were like thunder on the ground, and Lu Min, who was sitting on the railing of the pavilion, suddenly turned over.
"What's the meaning?"
Xia Chen handed over the photo, "This is a photo sent back from the scene. Although the coffin was reburied, it was indeed opened and reburied."
The place where Le Jia's body was buried was equivalent to a mass grave. There was no splendid tomb, and the scapegoat would not have any burial objects, so it had no value of being stolen.
But he was picked apart.
Thinking of some possibility, Wen Li clutched the cup with his fingers.
It seems that those who suspect that Le Jia is not dead are already investigating.
"Madam, Your Highness Yin Sa is here. He looks very anxious and says he wants to see you." The person in charge of guarding the door rushed over.
Wen Li raised his hand and rubbed his temples. If he wanted to investigate his mother's affairs, there was another person in the world besides her who would definitely do it even if he risked his life.
This person is Yin Sa.
"Let him come in, I just want to see him..."
It’s time to say something clearly.
