Chapter 1038 269. Clues

Terry stood up: "I will promise them now!"

"Eat first, and I will go with you after eating."
< br>The hungry Annan swept away the food, praised the chef several times when he was flattered, and followed Terry out.

"Find an opportunity to kidnap the chef back to Liberty City." Annan said with unfinished meaning.

It is said that the chef was specially brought by the old court president? I have to say that nobles are really good at enjoyment.

Annan knows the Shadow Brotherhood fairly well. Although they don't do good things, they are generally lawful: they reason with the strong and use fists with the weak.

Drove to the Hara Gang, where the brotherhood’s connector is.

Annan glanced at the gang members who were on duty and coming and going. They all had a little finger missing from their palms.

The contact person is a middle-aged man who seems to be a businessman and has no characteristics of an assassin. He recognized Annan and showed his reasonable side: "Master Olmei, I didn't expect that this incident would alarm you..."

"I have dealt with you, let's get straight to the point, who is the deceased?"

"This..."

Annan pressed forward step by step: "I can ignore it, but I can't help asking. I How do you know if you killed the Blade of Freedom?"

"Definitely not!"

"I said he was"

Annan vividly embodied his arrogance and domineering attitude.

The face of the contact person was not very good: "Master Olmei, this matter has nothing to do with the Purification Court, right?"

"It has nothing to do with it? This is the Purification Court, and it is under the control of the City Guards. We also take care of things that the city guards can't take care of."

The contact person was relieved. Young Master Olmei's reaction was in line with his prejudice against the Purifying Court, and it also confirmed that the Purifying Court is indeed capable of everything. I don’t know, I just discovered it by chance: “But it has nothing to do with the Blade of Freedom...”

“Do you think the king believes in you or me?”

"Okay... I will tell you, but I hope you will keep our secret."

The contact said that the deceased was Kurtz, a low-level knight of the Brotherhood, who was bribed by the target in an assassination mission , killed his companions and defected, the Shadow Brotherhood sent people to capture and execute him.

The Shadow Brotherhood in different regions has different characteristics. For example, the Shadow Brotherhood in the Kingdom of Dimon will have tattoos on their arms, and Shadow Song has a red flower. The Kingdom's Brotherhood of Shadows takes off their pinky finger nails. As he spoke, he showed off his little finger without nails.

Annan recalled the characteristics of the corpse. It was true that there was no nail on the little finger. At that time, he thought it was dug out by digging in the soil.

This statement is easy to check, and it is unlikely that he is lying. No wonder the Brotherhood of Shadows doesn't want to say that a member's defection would be a scandal to them.

"Okay, I won't ask further. Now let's talk about the bloodline of the old royal capital."

The connector nodded, looked at the surrounding men, and motioned for them to step aside first.

"You should go out first."

Annan asked the others to leave, leaving only Terry.

The story begins with a commission received by the Shadow Brotherhood after they came to the new royal capital. They are commissioned by an official to deal with one of his political opponents. They carried out the mission, and the target revealed a secret before being killed: Princess Seles was deliberately abandoned in the old capital, and the murderer was the one who sent them.

"That's it?"

Annan was very satisfied with the news. The suspect was suddenly locked in the Jiuyuan case that had no clues at all. He just wanted to test whether the Shadow Brotherhood knew more.

"We are the Brotherhood of Shadows and are not in the intelligence business. This information is of no use to us."

"Tell me who the noble is."

Connector People refuse to speak. Annan continued to threaten and induce: "Are you going to drag the entire Shadow Brotherhood to death for a rule that no one follows, or are you going to maintain a good relationship with the Purification Court?"

"...Sugra grain collector."

Annan doesn't know him, at least he's not on the list.

"I have another question. Don't worry, it has nothing to do with this matter." Annan asked curiously, "Do you have any contact with the Shadow Brothers of the Dimon Kingdom?"

"Wang There were still before the migration.”

It seems that the Kingdom's Shadow Brotherhood is trapped on an island?

"I got it. The Brotherhood of Shadow... we will meet again."

Annan left with Terry, leaving behind the contact who was worried about gains and losses.

Annan guessed right, the Shadow Brotherhood has indeed become an isolated and helpless island, otherwise it would not be able to even be coerced by the nobles.

In order to survive, they need a backer.

Now it seems that the Purifying Court doesn't mind, but Young Master Olmei is too young and immature. Who knows if he will die before becoming a great noble?

......

Annan and Terry sat in the car and watched the scenery passing by on the street. Annan asked: "What do you think?"

"He I didn’t lie, but I hid part of it,” Terry, who remained silent, analyzed.

“Oh?”

Terry analyzed the mission from his perspective of the Shadow Brotherhood: Usually the Shadow Brotherhood would not participate in personal vendettas between officials to avoid being implicated, but the official made an offer they could not refuse.

This was the first mistake made by the Shadow Brotherhood. The second mistake was that when they carried out the assassination, they spared the target's life in order to find out the hidden property. In order to survive, he revealed a big secret. : Princess Seles was deliberately abandoned in the old royal capital, and the murderer who sent them here was one of the instigators in order to shut his mouth.

No matter how stupid the knight who took action was, he should have realized that this was a hot potato and silenced everyone outside the Brotherhood of Shadows who heard about it on the spot.

If it were just like this, they would not want to exchange this news with the Purification Court.

The problem came from the fact that after the assassination was completed, the noble suspected that the Shadow Brotherhood knew something, summoned other nobles, and pursued and intercepted the Brotherhood from all angles.

In the final analysis, the Shadow Brotherhood is just a civilian organization such as a mercenary association. They do not have the strength to compete with the entire country. In order to protect themselves, they can only resist.

The Brotherhood originally wanted to follow their old profession and assassinate all the insiders, but the nobles seemed to know something and increased their precautions.

At this time, the Purification Court found them through the traitor incident.

The Brotherhood wanted to throw the hot potato to the Purification Court and bring some trouble to the noble, so the Purification Court, which had been causing trouble for the nobles all day long these days, became the best candidate.

"What you said is indeed more logical."

The motives of the Shadow Brotherhood are also clear. For example, why they couldn't wait to talk about the bloodline of the old capital... just to attract Annan's attention.

"They want to use you as a weapon, and their intentions are terrible. Should we say that they colluded with the Freedom Blade?"

"No, I don't hate this kind of cleverness, and they did help. Aren’t we?”

Because of Dina and Shadow Song, Annan has a good sense of the Shadow Brotherhood.

And they really helped.

Annan was looking forward to the scene when the chairman handed over the case to him and told him that the murderer was in the dungeon.
