Chapter 1193

Because the contact time is still short, ANN can't judge whether Carla's brother Charles is talented or too precocious. However, from the combination of eavesdropping spell and shielding aura at his age, at least there is no doubt about his talent in magic. Some graduates of the school of magic don't have this ability.

And the child has quite accurate goal planning for his future.

The Duke of Westford, one of the four dukes, is a real power faction. The whole empire belongs to these four Dukes except the emperor. If you have two minds, you may even run out and become king.

Few people are indifferent to such a position, but Charles doesn't seem to be interested in it.

The title is really attractive, but the title is only the title of the Empire. You don't know who cares about one of the four pillars of the Empire without the Empire.

You know, this is a multiverse world with countless planes

So in Charles's eyes, his brothers and sisters are too narrow-minded. The status of a Duke is indeed attractive, but it is not the ultimate goal of being an heir.

When they all focused on who could inherit the next Duke of Westford, Charles had focused on the broader and never marginal multiverse.

He studies magic and even wants to worship teachers when he meets, which is to prepare for this, because the safest and reliable plane movement methods are cross plane transmission in magic and the most high-end void travel.

It's really valuable to have a clear understanding and planning for his future at such a young age. When an Yizhi was eight, he still played video games with Lin Linglin all day, which is basically no different from ordinary bear children.

In other words, why are they more like dragon Aotian than me? I'm the protagonist of this book

——I don't know.

Anyway, Charles's appearance is just an episode. An Yizhi's top priority is to continue to catch the serial murderer. In Charles's own words, he came here mainly to watch the float parade and ridicule his stupid sister.

And the mockery effect... Is also quite good.

After Charles left, Carla was like crazy. She tore down her carriage with her bare hands. Finally, she found a magic pattern that shouldn't exist on the board under the cushion, took a huge sword and cut it into pieces to relieve her anger.

Maybe it means to release her mood. After all, she's only one step away from the gate of hell. Otherwise, an Yizhi's help is fast. The sister has begun to taste the saltiness of Mengpo soup now

But Charles also agreed with Cara's assessment of Ann's point of view. After he had been well vented, Cara could only make complaints about it.

"Have you ever thought about walking to Jeremiah's house without a carriage?"

“……”

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Kara herself could not accept it if others could stand it or not. After all, the nobles were a group of guys who wanted to lose face and suffer.

But walking

It's a little far away.

However, fortunately, the productivity level of this replica world is not low. You can find a personal tricycle casually. Otherwise, you can only measure it step by step with your legs, and there will be no image when you wait for the place.

As soon as Ann pointed out, she and Carla took a rickshaw to Duke Winifred's residence.

As the time approached the meal point, Carla didn't want to eat anything. She was mainly frightened by the tragedy at the scene of the crime. As long as she remembered, she had no appetite at all. It was estimated that she might have a nightmare that night.

An Yi pointed out that as a player, he didn't need to eat. He was just a pure mouth addict. He hung a buff with increased physical recovery speed. He bought a food like a hot dog from the street and maliciously asked the store to put more ketchup. Carla's face turned blue and white

The four Dukes all have mansions in the imperial capital, but the location is not near the center of the Imperial City, or even very far away.

From the map, the four Dukes' mansions occupy a corner of the edge of the imperial capital. It is said that this arrangement represents that the four Dukes guard one side for the emperor. It is unclear whether it is to reassure the emperor and other dukes.

Duke Winifred's house was not close to the scene of the crime. The rickshaw driver almost rode hard in front of the gold coins thrown by Carla, and finally got to the place in the shortest time.

Although not very favored, Carla is at least the daughter of the Duke's family. Many people in the circle know her, but she won't be rejected.

A energetic middle-aged housekeeper who received them said that the young master was reading in the study and took them to the reception room to wait for a while. By the way, an Yizhi also took a little look at the scenery of the Duke's house on the way.

Whether it is in the real world or in the different world, the powerful and rich have some things in common in the way they show that they are awesome, such as the big sleeping slot in the house.

The Duke's house is no exception. The housekeeper took them to turn left and right in the house. When passing the corridor, an Yizhi even saw an independent artificial lake outside.

It's a bit exaggerated to say that it's an artificial lake, but the area is definitely not comparable to that of a pond. There is also a delicate Pavilion beside the lake. When you're free, go there to drink tea and talk nonsense, combined with the gentle breeze

Zhennima will enjoy it!

Therefore, the feudal dynasty is extravagant and licentious, but think about it, isn't the so-called democratic modern just another name

When he came to the reception room, he almost asked the maid to bring tea and cakes, but the key Jeremiah still didn't appear.

Ann pointed out that he was not in a hurry. Anyway, the guard had poked the matter to the emperor. It is estimated that even without Jeremiah's human support, the emperor will send someone to find a way. There is no need for him to worry about it.

Carla was not in a hurry. After all, she wanted to catch the serial murderer. If the emperor directly sent someone to deal with it, she would not be as meritorious as she.

So after entering the reception room every few minutes, Carla asks the housekeeper why Jeremiah hasn't come yet.

"The young master may be too attentive. Recently, he often locks himself in his study. Please rest assured, Miss Carla. I've sent someone to inform."

This sentence obviously could not reassure Carla. After sitting for less than two minutes, Carla asked to go directly to the study to find Jeremiah.

As the saying goes, the lobbyist is at will. This kind of request is somewhat rude.

However, for one thing, Carla's identity is special, and for another, she is Jeremiah's classmate. The housekeeper thought that maybe the two people have a good relationship at school, so he didn't refuse.

An Yi pointed out that he wanted to continue to wait. The biscuits were delicious, but now he is Carla's bodyguard, so he'd better follow.

"Jeremiah probably feels the same pressure as me."

On the way, Carla pointed to Ann and said as she walked:

"As the heir of the Duke, his every move is more concerned than me."

That's why I locked myself in my study just to read more books and learn new things?

"Is his situation miserable, too?"

"He is different from me."

Carla shook her head and said:

"Duke Winifred is very easygoing and doesn't have high requirements for his children. Moreover, he has only one son, Jeremiah. He doesn't have to worry about the inheritance right at all. The main thing is whether he feels capable of taking over."

The current Duke of Winifred was originally the third in his family. When he was young, he felt that he must have no chance to inherit the title, so he took up his luggage and ran away from home before his father took him out with his relatives, claiming to study abroad.

But when he came back from more than ten years of sightseeing, he knew that his eldest brother and second brother had died in the war against the Federation, and the old lord had not long died, so he took over the title in such a muddle headed way.

Although the process is a coincidence, the current Duke of Winifred has done well. Under the pressure of reality, the speed of people's growth must not be underestimated. Perhaps Jeremiah inherited the characteristics of his own Lao Tzu. Even if others don't say anything, he won't lower his requirements for himself.

After all, it's still too thin skinned

In other words, it is estimated that the four pillars of the Empire will become three pillars. An Yizhi will definitely become a typical dandy. Bullying men and women is a necessary project.

Of course, the premise is Lin Linglin's permission, otherwise he will be beaten all over his face when he goes home.

With these messy things in mind, the housekeeper took them through the corridor. As long as they turned another corner, it was the study.

However, an Yizhi smelled something different. He whispered to Carla:

"I smell blood in front of me."

An Yizhi, who often fights, is very sensitive to this aspect.

Carla was stunned when she heard the speech:

"Is there a mistake? How can there be a smell of blood in the Duke's house?"

While talking, they had turned the corner of the corridor and just saw a maid lying on the ground in front of the double door of the study. A lot of blood made the carpet under them scarlet. Someone should have cut his throat, which was fatal.

"Betty! This..."

The housekeeper exclaimed, then reacted, rushed to the study door and knocked hard:

"Young master! Young master!"

The door is locked. The housekeeper can't knock it open.

An Yizhi took two quick steps. He heard a slight metal collision behind the door. It seemed that someone was fighting inside.

"Get out of the way!"

He drove the housekeeper away and raised his staff:

"Spell Penetration: position siege hammer!"

The hammer-shaped position is directly connected to the exquisite mahogany gate, which makes the latter wail and deform. In the brittle sound of the broken bolt, the gate is blasted open with an finger.

People saw a guy dressed as a waiter fighting with the golden hair young master seen in the last copy with a cross shaped dagger, and the latter obviously couldn't support it.

The moment the door was opened, the strange dagger stabbed into the lower abdomen of the latter. Seeing an's fierce opening the door, the assassin took a knife without hesitation and directly smashed the French window on the other side of the study.
