Chapter 1012 243. He still has to say thank you

The first door opened, and the husband who lost his wife rushed towards the knight holding an ax.
The second door, the third door...
More and more residents rushed out, looking for their relatives, releasing the neighbors in the prison cars, and moving towards the dead knights and The war horse vents.
"We won." Annan said softly.
The city guards at the city gate stood outside the street, not daring to come in.
Annan asked his captain to negotiate with them and seize the time to prepare evidence: he searched out the evidence from the members of the Freedom Blade, stuffed it into the corpses of the knights, and then told the residents: "They belong to the kingdom. He went undercover and entered the suburban slums to search for the Blades of Freedom, but was discovered by the Blades of Freedom who had infiltrated the Knights."
After pouring the dirty water, Annan took all the corpses and residents whose families died in the massacre. Return to the city guard.
This time is not a small incident, the massacre in the streets and the annihilation of the Knights are not trivial matters... More and more people know that the people behind the Knights broke a bunch of expensive tea cups after knowing about this.
Annan didn't go anywhere, just waiting for trouble to come in the city guard, while deepening the soldiers' impression that "the Knights are the blade of freedom".
These corpses cannot be contained for the time being, but the temperature in the dungeon is not high, and decomposition will only take three days.
Standing in the room where the bodies of the Liberty Blades were placed, Annan said softly: "Sorry, I need to use your bodies. After this is over, I will take you back to Liberty City and bury you in the warriors' cemetery. . ”
Coming out of the cell, the clerk asked whether he should ask a mage to purify the dungeon. There are too many dead bodies, which can easily breed undead creatures.
“Is there such a good thing?”
"The undead creatures have nothing to do with them when they were alive." The clerk explained in confusion.
Isn’t Mr. Olmei a mage? Why don’t you even know this?
"Okay, do as you say. But forget about the Knights." Annan said, "I want to kill them again."
Three hours after the tragedy happened Later, the nobles behind the Sesu Knights came to visit.
Viscount Lien angrily broke into the city guard with his personal bodyguards and wizards, seeking revenge for the executioner who killed his own knights.
As a result, when Annan saw him, he shouted coldly: "Catch him! He can't get rid of all the free blades of his knights."
Viscount Lien, who was a step late, laughed angrily. : "You dare to arrest me?"
"Your men are all Free Blades, what's wrong with arresting you?"
"You said my men are Free Blades?!"
This is a false accusation! This is groundless accusation!
"The evidence is conclusive, and you still want to deny it? Otherwise, you wouldn't think that I, a small city guard, dare to deal with the Knights."
This sentence is like a bucket of cold water poured on Viscount Lien's head.
It was because of this that he came to investigate three hours later... How dare a mere city guard officer destroy a knight order and go against himself?
Then he found out that behind Master Olmei was the Minister of Military Affairs. Renaldo does have the ability to do this, but why?
"Want to know the reason? Follow me."
Annan turned and walked towards the dungeon.
Viscount Lien said nothing and followed with his guards.
They came to the dungeon and were randomly thrown into the cell. The knight in armor made Viscount Lien's eyelids jump: "Are you provoking me?" Annan said nothing and continued to move forward. Before placing the body of the Liberty Blade, he pointed at one of them and said, "He is Chalkin, one of the agents stationed by the City Guard in the slums. After your knights appeared, they involuntarily cut three wounds on him."
"He is Brant, one of the agents. Your knights stabbed him through the chest with a sneak attack from the back. He is Hoth, who has revealed his identity and begged for mercy. He was grabbed by the hair and had his throat slit by your knights... He was Max... He was Jack... He was Ron..."
What he said seems to be true. Did the Knights really kill one of their own...?
But no matter what, Viscount Lien will never admit it, and Annan will never let go.
The two sides found a balance and gave up killing each other, but maintained the intensity of "finding an explanation".
Viscount Lean believed that Annan was not qualified to talk to him, so he went to the sheriff to ask for an explanation, and then the ball was kicked back to Annan by the sheriff: it was Master Olme who acted, and the city guard did not know about it.
They made a noise all the way to the Minister of War.
"Your Excellency Renaldo, you have a good nephew." Viscount Lien sneered as he had lost a knight.
"I think so too. Uncle Renaldo, I eliminated a Freedom Blade lurking in the Knights, can I be promoted?"
The Minister of Military Affairs looked at Annan , looked at Viscount Lien again, and said a fair word: "Whether they are the blades of freedom and whether they have betrayed the kingdom, you will know by investigating what they did."
Viscount Lien's face changed. pale.
He sent someone to investigate. Maybe they are the Blades of Freedom... No, it's definitely a false accusation, but the massacre of innocent residents is definitely true...
"My men just suspected that they were the Blades of Freedom." Viscount Lien said without blinking.
“Is this so? Article 15 of the Kingdom’s Law states that any citizen is protected by the Kingdom, and anyone who harms them will be regarded as an enemy.”
“What is Article 38? "The military minister suddenly spoke up.
“Nobles who kill or harm civilians need to pay atonement.” In order to deal with Viscount Lien, Annan memorized the law for dozens of minutes: “But the Knights are not nobles, and they are not qualified to pay atonement. "
Viscount Lien remained silent, and Annan took advantage of the victory and pursued him: "Viscount, if I were you, not only would I not attack the enemy, but I would also like to thank those who helped cover it up."
"Because the Knights must die. Only when they die can I spread the word that the Free Blade is killing people and committing crimes. The Knights all sacrificed to protect the residents. If they don't die...then you will be the one who connives with his subordinates, killing civilians and The undercover sinner.”
Viscount Lien was sweating, not because of Annan’s words, but because the Minister of Military Affairs had enough evidence to hold him accountable...
Don’t tell me to give it to him then. If the Knights are not guilty, even he himself will be trapped in the whirlpool.
"Do you understand, Viscount Lien." The Minister of Military Affairs spoke out.
“I understand…”
Viscount Lien could only swallow his anger and suffer this big loss.
Correspondingly, Olmei's name jumped into the eyes of the big shots. They couldn't help but wonder what Renaldo's purpose was in letting his nephew stand firm against the Free Blade.
On the other hand, although Annan has "made great contributions", it is difficult to be promoted to the Sheriff... After all, he has only been on the job for less than a week.
But the turning point came on the third day - news came from the palace, and the king expressed his appreciation for Olmei.
Annan was promoted and Crowe had no reaction. The king's patrolling Crow didn't see him, but he killed the Blade of Freedom when he saw it - allowing Annan to enter Crow's eyes.
