The bright moon hangs high in the night sky, in a magnificent room.
The open windows and doors let in a gust of cold wind, causing the oil lamp on the table to flicker on and off.
Lying beside the overturned chair was a noble young man in gorgeous clothes.
At this moment, his delicate face was pale and colorless, his eyes were closed and his lips were purple.
A sharp arrow shot into his chest majestically, pointing directly at his heart.
"Cough cough."
Suddenly, the young man coughed suddenly and woke up. He opened his eyes and looked around blankly, but found that the environment he was familiar with was no longer there.
"Where is this?"
"Aren't I in the detective agency? Hiss."
A flood of memories flooded his mind, and Kane Gerrard was the name of the body.
As a baron who had just inherited the title, he could have had a great career, but on this night, a sudden assassination ended his life.
At this time, Su Ming from Blue Star inherited his body.
It's unlucky to say that Su Ming just took a nap in his own detective agency, but he didn't expect to wake up and time travel.
Standing up unsteadily, there was a burst of pain in his chest, and Su Ming remembered that there was still a sharp arrow stuck in his body.
"Damn it, I forgot about this."
Looking at the sharp arrow that sank into his chest, Su Ming didn't know what to do, but the increasingly severe pain warned him that he had to either pull out the sharp arrow, or continue the pain forever.
After struggling for a while, Su Ming took a deep breath, endured the piercing pain, held the arrow tail, and pulled out the sharp arrow.
Immediately, golden-red blood spurted out following the arrow, and Su Ming himself fell to his knees on the ground.
An unspeakable pain appeared in his body, as if the moment he pulled out the sharp arrow, Su Ming's own strength also flowed away with the blood.
Clutching his bleeding chest, Su Ming slowly changed from kneeling to falling down, and finally lost the strength to support him, and fell down completely, and everything in front of him became sleepy and hazy.
But his will to survive kept reminding him that he couldn't just fall asleep like this.
Perhaps the gods were also moved by him. Under his strong will, the eyelids that were already spinning gradually opened, and an inexplicable sense of comfort rushed to the heart.
Su Ming, who no longer felt pain, relaxed his mind in this comfortable feeling, and gradually fell asleep.
early morning.
When the bright sunlight shone into the room, there was a knock on the door.
"Boom boom boom."
"Lord Kane."
Maintaining the posture of last night, Su Ming, who fell on the ground, no, it should be Kane, opened his eyes again.
He struggled to get up from the floor and wiped his moist cheeks, only to realize that his whole body was covered with blood.
But what surprised Kane was that his blood was mixed with a little gold, and the blood that should have dried up or coagulated long ago was dripping from his body like running water at this moment.
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Kane tore off the tattered shirt on his body.
After looking at his chest, he showed a really so expression.
The bloody hole left by pulling out the sharp arrow earlier has healed up long ago, leaving only a hideous scar.
I am afraid that something has changed in my body last night.
Kane clearly knew that even if he had the strength of a first-level primary in his memory, it was impossible for him to have such an ability.
Looking at the big pool of blood on the floor, Kane shook his head self-deprecatingly, that's right, a person who can leave a lot of blood and be fine should not be a normal person long ago.
At this moment, another voice of inquiry came from outside the door.
"Lord Kane?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Kane knew the identity of the person outside the door, and it was his personal servant Enqin.
As a servant who grew up with Kane, he deeply trusted himself.
When it was not known whether the assassin came from outside or inside the castle, Unqin was the person he trusted the most.
Immediately, Kane opened the door and pulled Unqin into the room.
"Lord Kane, what's wrong with you?" Enqin asked anxiously, looking at Kane whose whole body was covered in blood.
Kane patted Enqin on the shoulder, motioned him to calm down, and said, "Enqin, I'm fine, there's no need to ask about this matter, you should clean up here first, remember to leave the arrows behind."
Seeing that Kane didn't want to say more, Enqin suppressed the doubts in his heart and began to clean up.
On the other side, Kane, who had finished giving orders, went to the bathroom alone to clean up.
After rewashing and dressing up, Kane walked out of the room and was led by another maid to the dining room.
After he took his seat, the servants waiting at the side began to serve breakfast, and the butler Jess also walked in at this time.
In the memory of the original owner, the steward Jess was an old man who had assisted the family since the previous Baron, and his experience was very seasoned.
"Master Kane, the warm red wine in Petersburg has been prepared for you, do you want to serve it now?"
"Bring it on, Jace."
"As you wish, Lord Kane."
Jess took the red wine from the servant and slowly poured it into Kane's glass.
During this period, Kane also observed everyone's expressions, but whether it was Jess or others, it was as usual.
It seems that they didn't know that they were assassinated. Did the murderer come from outside the castle
After breakfast, Kane came to the training ground outside the castle according to his original habits, and started his daily morning exercises.
Waving the long sword in his hand, Kane absently slashed at the training dummy.
While trying to maintain the daily life of his original body, Kane kept thinking about who was going to assassinate him at this juncture.
Is it Jess? Obviously not, as the steward of the castle, he had no reason to assassinate himself.
Could that be Marcus? A strong and steady figure appeared in Kane's mind, but then he shook his head again. As his own canonized knight, the other party would not make such an unwise choice.
That definitely wouldn't be Catherine. She, like Marcus, was a superhuman raised by her family. Once she fell, they themselves would be greatly affected.
Putting down the long sword in his hand and taking the towel handed by the servant, Kane wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued to think that except for all the candidates in the castle, it could only be an assassination from the outside world.
The morning exercise ended soon, and Kane returned to his study again.
At this time, the study room had been cleaned by Enqin, and he stood aside and handed the murder weapon and arrow to Kane.
After receiving the arrow, Kane instructed: "Enqin, remember not to spread the matter in the room to outsiders."
Enqin nodded: "Yes, I understand, Lord Kane." Then, he left the study consciously.
After the other party closed the door, Kane picked up the arrow and pondered carefully. There was a protruding part at the end of the arrow, and the arrow feathers that should have been at the end were above this part. This is a typical Crossbow arrow deconstruction.
At the same time, the style of crossbow bolts is also a common commodity. It is obvious that the murderer did not want people to know his identity.
Putting down the arrow, Kane came to the window, assuming that his previous reasoning was true, then the murderer most likely entered the room from the outside.
The window of the study room appeared to be very clean, thanks to the servants who came to clean it every day, but Kane still found some doubts under the window.
Looking up and looking down, the majestic stone walls supported the entire castle, but Kane noticed that one or two stone bricks looked a little different at the position below the window.
They were all missing a leg, and the missing part was right on either side of the window.
This tiny detail, if it weren't for Kane's previous career, would definitely not be noticed by ordinary people.
Sure enough, as I thought, the murderer came in from the outside.
Then the murderer who could escape the multiple inspections outside the fort, climb up the city wall easily, and assassinate him must be an extraordinary person, even higher in rank than himself.
This gave Kane a little headache. Extraordinary people have their own unique powers, which are far from being resisted by ordinary soldiers.
What's more, now the other party is in the dark, and he is in the open. Once he finds out that he is still alive, he will definitely come to assassinate him again.
Kane must make a plan before the opponent assassinates.
