Chapter 149 Reasons
Mrs. Satir in the cell first dusted herself off, straightened her appearance a little, and then walked out slowly.
“Thank you very much for your rescue, two gentlemen. Your heroic actions make the Hune family owe you a huge favor. When I return to the family, I will definitely give you a rich gift. As a reward, although this worldly property cannot express my gratitude to you at all, it is the only thing the Hunet family can do, so please be sure to accept it."
Mrs. Satir. The words were watertight and made Nohir sound very comfortable, but rather than the reward, he was actually more curious about why this group of people were kidnapped here?
“Thank you for your generosity, Mrs. Satyr, but more than the reward, I want to know why you are here and why Duke Vansample kidnapped you. I wonder if you can answer this. Question? ”
After hearing this, Mrs. Satir's eyes shrank, and she subconsciously looked at Ska in the opposite cell. No, it was not Ska, but the shield he was carrying. After seeing Sati behind the shield, Mrs. Alfred seemed to want to say something, but she was aware of the presence of other people around her, so she ultimately said nothing.
Nohir noticed this strange behavior, but before he could ask, Saleen suddenly interrupted.
“Hey, I get angry when I think about it. I don’t know why others were caught, but I was just unlucky. I was in Talik in Baldur’s Gate with my two other companions. I stole some bread from the bakery to fill my stomach, but the two clumsy idiots were immediately discovered by the store manager, who then called Yanquan."
"At that time, I tried my best to explain to the soldiers that we didn't steal anything. But these two idiots, Alice and Baedeker, refused to even wipe the cream from their mouths. In the end, we had to jump into the sewers separately to escape. As a result, I lost my way while running, and then accidentally bumped into When I saw this group of cultists dressed in black robes and gold masks, I felt something was wrong at that time, so I immediately turned around and wanted to run away, but I suddenly fainted inexplicably before I took two steps. , I showed up here after I woke up. Oh, I’m such an unlucky guy. No, no, the reason why I ended up like this is all because of those two idiots!”
Sounding like an unlucky person who had been innocently affected and unable to provide any valuable information at all, Nohill ignored her complaints and continued to turn his head to Mrs. Satir.
Seeing Nohir's questioning look, Mrs. Satyr also began to hesitate. Should she tell the details of that thing here? But that thing is too dangerous. If I expose him here...
"Excuse me, can you let me out too, and then we can talk about what everyone wants to know?"
At this time, the only man locked in the cell said helplessly to Nohir, but there was a reason why Nohir left him at the end, but now that he interrupted.
Nohir turned his head towards him and said to him.
"The proposal is very good. Maybe I can talk to you first, but letting you out... won't work."
"What...! Why? Aren't you here to save people?"
< br>"I can answer you this question, but I can only say that saving people is just incidental. I will not tell you my real purpose, nor will I release you from the cell unless you can answer my question. Question."
"What question? As long as you let me out, I will tell you whatever you want to know."
"Okay, then answer it first. Me, why have you been imprisoned for so long without being harmed at all? This is a bit unreasonable, so tell me, what did you do to allow her to imprison you without harming you, and why is it so special to you? ”
"...Where did you see that I was locked up for a long time?"
"Answer me...forget it, believe me, no one understands better than me how to continue to work without sanitary conditions." What would it be like to stay in one place for a long time? Your face and the smell on your body clearly tell me that you have been locked up in this dungeon for at least two months."
"So. Now tell me who you are and why you are like this. My patience is limited. Please answer quickly. ""...My name is Kargil Orumal. I don't know why she did this to me. , in fact, I used to be the Duke’s sewer maintenance supervisor. I served the Duke for six full years. During this time, I have always maintained a good superior-subordinate relationship with the Duke, so I really don’t understand why she Would you do this to me?"
Sewer Maintenance Supervisor? If what this person said is true, then there is indeed a reason why he was not abused. After all, this person used to be considered a regular subordinate of Duke Vansample. He has a clean background and a high status. But why would such a person Will he be locked up?
"The reason you mentioned can barely explain why you were not abused, but this reason alone is not enough. Think carefully about what you did before this happened, and what happened to force VanSample to The Duke had to kidnap you?"
Why is this? Cargill's mind couldn't help but follow Nohill's words and return to an afternoon two months ago.
At that time, he had just planned a new maintenance route, but within two days of construction on that route, he suddenly received reports that his kobold plumbers suddenly began to disappear in large numbers. According to the news, he temporarily suspended the project because of this incident, and then went into the sewer to investigate, but found nothing.
Later, the project was resumed, but less than two days later, more than 50 of his original kobold tribe of more than 300 people disappeared.
1/6 of the quantity disappeared in less than three days. Such a big thing happened. He knew that this problem was no longer something he could solve, so he suspended the project and wrote again. A report was personally delivered to Duke Vansample in the hope that the Duke could help him find the reason for the disappearance of other kobolds. However, after seeing the report, the Duke just sent him home to wait for approval of new maintenance roads.
"...That's it. Less than two days after that incident, I was attacked at home. The intruders knocked me unconscious and tied me here. I have no family because my job is in the sewer. I have very few friends. Maybe no one knows that I am missing until now. Oh my god, damn it! Why is this happening?”
Kakir covered his head in pain and squatted in the cell. Er then looked at Scar, who had arrived at his side at some unknown time.
"What he said is true and he did not lie. It seems that he is indeed a victim."
Ska judged that he did not lie through the ability of divine perception, and if Ka Jill wasn't lying.
“I’m sorry, sir, I was too vigilant. Your plight makes people sympathize with you, but as long as today passes, the Vansamples family will completely become history, and their actions will be exposed to the world. In front of you, you can also serve as a witness against their depravity, so that you can get revenge to a certain extent."
Nohir opened the cell and helped up Kargil who was lying on the ground.
“Contact the Vansample family head-on? Sorry, I don’t have the courage. After what happened, I just wanted to stay away from Baldur’s Gate. This incident made me realize that even in a rural town, It is also many times safer than the mud pit of Baldur's Gate. I will never come back after leaving here."
In this dangerous world, there is no point. What about security? However, Nohill did not mean to dissuade him. After all, Baldur's Gate would indeed be too dangerous in the next few years, and leaving during this period might not be the right choice.
“I respect your idea, man, but before you leave, can you tell me where is the specific area of the sewer that you were responsible for repairing before? I am more interested in that area, there may be surprises The harvest is uncertain.”
“It’s very dangerous there. I don’t recommend it to ordinary people... Well, I think you should be able to solve it, and if you really solve the unknown monster, then my Colleagues can also encounter less danger when working in sewers.”
Kargil squatted on the ground and began to draw a picture on the ground with his fingers. After a while, he drew a very crude map, and then pointed in the direction.
