Whizzing!
Two flying knives came through the air, bringing two cold lights in the cemetery at night.
"careful!"
Sheriff John reminded loudly, and subconsciously blocked the middle-aged man behind him.
As for Qin Ran
After seeing Qin Ran's strength, Sheriff John was not worried about Qin Ran at all.
On the contrary, he was more worried about the person who attacked Qin Ran,
In fact, it is.
Qin Ran's figure disappeared in a flash, even with the two throwing knives. The wide-eyed Sheriff John didn't catch Qin Ran's movements at all.
All he saw was Qin Ran's figure when he reappeared, holding two throwing knives in one hand and a figure of a strange man in the other.
John didn’t see clearly, let alone the middle-aged man of the Wayne family.
"What's wrong?"
"What happened?"
The middle-aged man shouted in panic.
"It's okay, it's just an accident!"
After Sheriff John comforted the other party, he walked up to Qin Ran and looked at the unconscious man who was being carried.
The other party was wearing a black strong suit, the clothes around the wrists and ankles were tied tightly with string, and there were two throwing knives and a short sword stuck in the belt around his waist.
On the other side of the belt is a cyst.
Inside the capsule, there is a hand crossbow and flint pistol, and some test tube potions and the like
And in the opponent's boots, there is also a dagger hidden.
Looking at these things, John frowned.
Most people don't carry these things with them.
Of course, the people who appear here cannot be ordinary people.
"Who is this guy?"
"He's following us?"
John asked.
"Who needs to be interrogated for a while, but he arrived here earlier than us."
Qin Ran kept the prisoner on the ground and said with certainty.
First, Qin Ran was absolutely sure that the other party had guarded here in advance, otherwise, based on his perception, if the other party followed him, it would be impossible for him to miss him.
Second, the other party should have nothing to do with the Wayne family, no matter in appearance or behavior, it is more like a guy engaged in some secret activities.
Some guys engaged in secret activities are interested in the soon-to-be-broken Wayne family
Qin Ran quickly walked to the place where the other party was hiding.
In the field of vision, the traces left by the other party are clearly visible
In other words, the other party only arrived a little earlier than them.
"As soon as the people from the 'Revival Society' were wiped out, someone appeared here... Interesting!"
With his chin propped on one hand, Qin Ran glanced back and forth between the prisoner and the tomb of the first Earl Wayne.
"How about it?"
John asked.
"If it wasn't for something like 'Rooting Tomb', then we might have accidentally caught a big fish."
Qin Ran replied.
Then, he went straight to the tomb of the first Earl Wayne.
Without any difficulty, Qin Ran found the mechanism to open the tomb door.
Ga.
With a sound of the machine spring turning, the door of the tomb slowly opened.
Looking at the opened tomb door, the middle-aged man of the Wayne family opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when he saw the situation in the tomb, the middle-aged man's mouth completely opened, completely in line. Not close anymore.
Simple but fully furnished living room.
There are no coffins, let alone corpses.
There are only beds, desks, chairs, and blankets made of animal skins.
Judging from the scattered bowls on the ground, at least seven or eight people lived here.
"This this… "
The middle-aged man stuttered and was completely speechless.
"It's Ketley's bastard's hideout!"
John snorted coldly.
Although the other party is really dead, even so, our sheriff can't have the slightest favor for the other party who participated in and created the 'plague'.
"But, but the bones..."
The middle-aged people slurred what they wanted to express.
"Perhaps cleaned up."
Looking at Qin Ran who was walking back and forth in the tomb, John said somewhat uncertainly.
John did not forget what Qin Ran said just now.
"Big fish?"
John lowered his head to look at the unconscious prisoner, his brain kept spinning.
Our sheriff tries to connect what he sees and hears.
But in the end, nothing was found.
"What's going on?"
"What do you mean by big fish?"
John walked into the tomb and asked Qin Ran who was thinking the same.
"Look at this tomb."
Qin Ran didn't answer the question.
"It's normal, except that there is no corpse!"
John answered.
"Then have you ever thought about where the coffins and corpses that should exist here go?"
Qin Ran asked again.
"Should it have been disposed of?"
"After all, a large group of Ketley is here, and if there is a corpse, it will be very absent!"
John talked about his previous guess.
"Um."
Kieran nodded and did not deny John's guess.
Because this is the most reasonable explanation for the situation in front of you.
If there is no corresponding trace!
A coffin containing a corpse, according to the time on the tombstone, has been placed in the tomb for at least forty years, even the rocky ground should have left traces.
What's more, this kind of cold and damp tomb
If there is a coffin to be placed here, not to mention the indentation, the moss that grows alone cannot be easily 'cleaned' by the latecomers.
At least some wash marks will remain.
But it's as if nothing is clean in front of my eyes.
"Aren't there coffins, burial chambers for corpses?"
Qin Ran, who was talking softly in his heart, didn't say anything more to John, but walked towards the middle-aged man.
"How did the first Earl of Wayne die?"
Qin Ran asked.
"He died of a sudden illness, and some people said it was a plague, so the corpse and the coffin were hurriedly sent to the tomb."
The middle-aged man replied.
"Did you see it with your own eyes?"
Qin Ran continued to ask.
"That was forty years ago, how could I see it?"
"It's all from the elders."
"There should still be people who could witness it with their own eyes, but now, after experiencing the civil strife caused by that bastard, many people died for no apparent reason."
The middle-aged man smiled wryly.
"is that so?"
Qin Ran pondered.
The more he found that the Wayne family was unusual.
With the death of the second Earl of Wayne... No, not with the death of the second Earl of Wayne, but the other side consciously promoted the death of the second Earl of Wayne.
Not Ketley.
Ketley was also a pawn.
Should be hidden deeper guy.
A guy who is not only scheming against the Wayne family, but also scheming at the Church of Dawn.
"Who is the one?"
Qin Ran was still thinking while sitting in the carriage on the way back, and his eyes couldn't help looking at the prisoner.
At this moment, the bound prisoner has come to his senses.
When he met Qin Ran's gaze, the prisoner immediately lowered his head.
But the next moment, the other party raised his head again.
"Sorry to meet you in this way, 2567."
The other party with cloudy eyes spoke as if dreaming. 8
