Chapter 91 The Returned Mayor
Of course Irina knows the value of the Claulund family cemetery. If there are no problems with the family cemetery, it may still be unknown who will eventually sit on the throne of the empire.
Now that Weston has found a way to restore the family cemetery, and has achieved some results. His son Herot succeeded as the head of the Claude family and became the ruler of the old days. In the face of the facts that have happened, simply getting angry is of no use and may make things worse.
The most important thing now is to protect Helot's safety, put him under the eyes of the emperor, and protect him under his own wings.
In short, you cannot stay in the remote Crowlund Manor. The exchange of information is too slow, and you will always be guessed. Others will only keep thinking the worst about you.
Herot understood his mother's intention and replied: "After I finish handling things here, I will go to the Imperial Capital immediately. I passed the interview with Tomorrow Group, and it's time to go to work."
"Good boy! "Irina hugged Helot: "I forgive my mother for not being able to accompany you and not reveal your identity. I just don't want you to fall into the whirlpool of my struggle prematurely, and I don't want you to be hurt."
"I understand, mother. You blocked all the arrows that should have been shot at me."
"You are very smart, as smart as your father, and have the same stubborn temper as him. For me Say hello to him and hope he finds a way out soon."
"I will tell him."
Irina sighed: "I'm leaving. There are many things waiting for me to do, and I can't accompany you anymore."
"I'm very happy to see you."
"Goodbye, I'll wait for you in the Imperial Capital."
Irina turned and left without looking back, and the guards formed a protective circle to follow.
Angelica walked up to Helot, put her arms around his shoulders, and said in his ear: "There are no beautiful girls in this country place. It is better to be in the imperial capital, where there are many beautiful and interesting things." Miss. Come back early and I will take you to some places that I didn’t dare to take you to when you were in school.”
The breath Angelica exhaled made Herot's ears itch. He moved away and said, "Aunt Angelica, my mother has not gone far."
Angelica He immediately covered his mouth and looked in the direction of Irina. Thinking that she might not have heard, he patted his chest: "This is our secret, please don't betray me."
" Of course I won't betray you." Helot completely forgot about betraying his father.
Angelica winked at Helot: "We agreed, next time we meet, I will take you to learn more."
"Okay!"
"Goodbye!"
Angelica blew a kiss to Herot and turned to chase Irina.
When they disappeared into the night, Herot let out a long breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
This level has finally passed.
In an instant, Herot felt that his waist was hardened and his chest was puffed up. He was once again the unshakable master of Claulund Manor.
Go back and wait for the people who should come!
The next day, Mayor Reinham returned to Hog Town in a carriage after receiving the news.
Then go straight to Claude Manor.
He still retained the battlefield from last night. Hundreds of corpses fell in the woods outside the manor. Blood was splashed everywhere, and the black ground was dyed red. Looking at the panicked faces, it was hard to imagine what happened to them last night. There were also war machines that fell to the ground. The new paint was stained with blood, and the remaining steam was leaking out.
The strong smell of blood rushed into the carriage compartment, and Reinhard couldn't help but take out a handkerchief from his pocket, cover his mouth and nose, and close the window.
When Reinham followed steward Kurt into the castle hall, the scene in front of him made him even more uncomfortable. As a child of a pampered family, he had never seen so many corpse fragments before, as well as twisted corpses full of stitches.
As the mayor of Hog Town, he had to watch.
He saw Morpheus, the detective of the Hog Town Sheriff's Office, lying on the ground, dying in a very embarrassed manner.
I also saw Miriel, a descendant of Claulund who died in Claulund Manor.
Helot came down the stairs and said to Reinham with aggrievedness: "Mayor, you saw it with your own eyes. Someone invaded my manor last night, and I had to fight to protect my property.
It’s just that I’m curious as to why Inspector Morpheus got involved and rushed into my home with the corpse stitcher. As the mayor of Hog Town, you should give me a reasonable explanation.”
Such a scene was something Reinham did not expect.
He felt that even if Claulund Manor was not defeated by Morpheus and the others, both sides would be injured. When the time comes when you come back to clean up the mess, you will be able to gain the initiative. Not only will the local power in Hog Town be weakened, but the Crowlund Manor will also be successfully demolished in subsequent operations.
Unexpectedly, the current outcome turned out to be one-sided. The Crowlund Manor seemed to have suffered no damage, and the intruders were completely killed.
The hidden strength of the Claulund family is... quite strong!
It will be difficult to handle when things develop like this.
So many people died in Hog Town. As the mayor, I always have to give an explanation to the townspeople, but it happened that they died as intruders in other people's territory and at home.
Imperial laws were perfectly circumvented.
Reinham asked Herot: "Last night, several town councilors and village sages died in their homes. Can you explain?"
Helot said angrily: "Mayor, don't tell me, I seem to be a murderer. I was trying my best to resist the invasion last night, how could I go to the town to kill people? I think you should investigate Morpheus. He colluded with the corpse stitchers, and those people may have been killed by his accomplices.”
Reinham knew that the people who died in the town last night were all united with Morpheus to embezzle the Claude Manor. The partners of Fortune, their deaths must be related to Herot.
But there is no evidence.
Most of the peace officers from the town police station were lying outside in the woods, and no one was keeping vigil in the town all night. The townspeople knew something big was going on and hid in their homes. No witnesses saw who killed the town council member.
It seems that Morpheus can only bear this crime. Anyway, he is already dead, and he died in the battle of invading other people's territory.
Reinham couldn't help but smile bitterly. He knew that his career in public service had come to an end.
It’s really gold-plated and shit-plated!
"Mr. Claude, on behalf of Hog Town, I would like to express my most sincere apology to you. As the mayor, I did not discover that there were so many gangsters hiding under my jurisdiction. This was a serious dereliction of my duties. .
I will submit my resignation as soon as possible..."
Helot stopped Reinham and said: "My Lord Mayor, it is not enough to apologize to my manor. Compensation is required.”
