Chapter 75

The aster hotel has four floors. Victor lives on the fourth floor. He stands by the window and looks down. Below is a clean street.

Victor's heart is not clean at all. He completely fell into the disadvantage in the confrontation the day before yesterday. The York family knows everything about him. It is not surprising that there must be a dark son of the York family among the people.

What count York said about Sophia also attracted Victor's attention.

In order to pursue the Golden Knight Andre, the Marquis Sophia sent the little Baron to the remote human horse hills, secretly murdered her nominal husband, so as to obtain greater political interests and remove the obstacles to the combination with the Golden Knight. That makes perfect sense, but Victor doesn't think it's that simple.

First of all, the Earl of York mentioned: what would happen if the marquess pursued success. In other words, Sophia hasn't succeeded yet. Since failure means failure, now is not the time for Sophia to eliminate the little baron. After all, the reputation of being a widow twice in a few years is not good.

Secondly, no one knows that the little Baron has been killed and died at the hands of the wizard. It is entirely possible for the great nobles to keep several wizards secretly. As early as 1500 years ago, Lords began to hook up with wizards. But Sophia sent wizards to murder the little Baron is unlikely, because it takes too much trouble! You know, the little Baron has complete trust in Sophia. What can be solved with a cup of poisonous wine and risk using Wizards?

In short, Victor thought Sophia was unlikely to murder the little Baron, but what's the use of this? As the Earl of York said, if Sophia succeeds in pursuing Andre, Victor is really dangerous. Even if Sophia doesn't kill him, Andre, the Golden Knight, can't let him go.

In Victor's memory, Sophia was a very beautiful woman and very rich. Victor believes that once rich and beautiful women take the initiative to pursue men, few men can control it. Of course, maybe the Golden Knight will be different. But what kind of person is Andre? What's his purpose? Victor knew nothing. In fact, Victor knew little about the situation outside the territory. He was like a blind man.

At this time, Victor urgently wants to have his own intelligence network, but at present, he can only be delusional. He has neither money nor talent.

"What a fucking pit! Nobles can't divorce!" Victor scolded secretly.

Aristocratic marriage, like Knight duel, is a sacred and serious contract and a joint interest between the two families. There is no saying of divorce at all. If the nobleman wants to marry or marry another, unless the other half burps fart. For example, the biological mother of Princess Roland, Queen Irene, or the old Marquis of Wimbledon.

Looking out of the window, Victor smiled. He sensed that Lilia was creeping towards him and wanted to sneak at him from behind. Unfortunately, it was impossible.

Victor's perception has become more acute since he inexplicably entered the deep meditation of the Golden Toad's secret form the day before yesterday. Now he can detect the slight movement within two meters around him without opening the super sense,.

Lilia held her breath and her white little feet stepped on the thick cashmere carpet without a sound. She so quietly touched victor and saw that the sneak attack was about to succeed, but her body suddenly lightened and the whole person was held up by Victor.

"Victor, I failed again." Said Lilia chagrinedly.

Victor happily kissed the maid's cherry lips and put her down.

These two days Victor specially asked Lilia to attack herself quietly, but Lilia tried dozens of times but failed. Now Victor has determined that his strength has been improved, which is likely to be a passive talent. Victor called it blindness.

"Lilia, have you contacted Nicole and Bruce?" Asked victor.

"Victor, I've sent someone to inquire. Sister Nicole and knight Bruce have accompanied the Edwin scholar back to Al kingdom. It's estimated that they won't come back in a few months." Lilia looked at Victor with some worry. She already felt that adults had a problem.

"Hum!" Victor snorted coldly. He asked, "do you accept the sheepskin scroll I wrote?"

"I've taken it."

Lilia nodded and said, "Sir, Uncle John said the monkey wanted to see you."

"Anyway, there's nothing wrong now. Let's meet." Victor smiled.

The monkey stood respectfully in front of victor. He didn't dare to go out. He came to survive.

Victor looked at the thin gangster in front of him. He was wearing a coat made of wool and linen. His face was blue and white, as if he had not recovered from a serious illness. He took care of himself very clean, and even his clothes were ironed straight, so that he looked like a gentleman. But Victor knew that the monkey was a free man.

"Do you still dare to see me, not afraid I'll kill you?" Victor asked in a cold voice.

Although the monkey couldn't help it, he did rely on Victor's power and pit Victor again. So even if Victor killed him, he had nothing to say.

"Afraid!" The monkey smiled bitterly and said, "so I put on my most decent clothes and hope to die like a gentleman."

"Would you rather die like a gentleman than run away?" Asked Victor with interest.

"My Lord, if you want to kill me, I dare not run away and can't run away. I'm like an ant to you. You can run over me at any time or let me go."

The monkey said, kneeling down in front of victor. This is not etiquette, but a submissive gesture to die, like a prisoner about to be beheaded.

Victor's eyes were cold, but he was surprised. The young gang leader, without begging for mercy or excuse, looked like kneeling down and leading to death.

Victor could clearly sense that the monkey was sweating, his lips were pale, his heart beat hard, but his muscles were relaxed. All these showed that he was not pretending. He is really afraid and really leads to death, or he is betting his life on an uncertain future.

"As long as you are loyal to me, I won't kill you. How? Can you do it?" Victor felt that he was a little interested in monkeys.

"My Lord, I can't do it!" The monkey bit his teeth and spit out a few words hard. He couldn't control his trembling.

Looking at the young man's fear in front of him, Victor felt a little unbearable, even uncomfortable. Even if the monkey is a bloody villain, but this appearance of life and death by people will always make human beings in civilized society angry. This anger stems from compassion for the same kind and is aimed at the cruel world. This is not noble, but you don't know that you will end up in the same end that day. This is human nature, by people and yourself.

So Victor said, "just now, you almost died."

Hearing Vic's words, the monkey immediately collapsed on the ground and breathed heavily. He didn't even have the power to lift a finger

"Give him a glass of purple cane wine." Said Victor faintly.

If the monkey has just been loyal to victor, he will die. Because Victor already knew that the monkey was a dog of the York family, and the York family had many such dogs, and was willing to lend them to other nobles, but the York family was the dog owner.

Since old John suffered a loss, the old mercenary has not been idle. He has touched the gang forces in Heibao town.

There are three main gangs in Heibao Town, all of which are the tools of the York family to control the free people. They are masons, vegetable heads and hyenas.

The masons association is a gangster organization that specially organizes the free people to build walls and fortresses. They are also responsible for building roads and houses. Any free people who want to eat a bowl of rice should obey the arrangement of the masons Association, and the boss behind the masons association is the urban defense officer of Heibao town. From time to time, the city defense officer will promote the skilled free people to the leaders of the York family. When necessary, these strong free people can also be armed and become family militia forces. Therefore, the stonemason will have the closest relationship with the York family, and outsiders can't intervene. The free people want to squeeze in, which can not only feed their families, but also learn skills. Maybe they will become the leaders of the York family that day.

Caitou is under the leadership of the municipal magistrate. They organize the free people to clean up the feces and garbage of the town, grow vegetables and raise pigs on the land of the feudal minister, and provide daily needs for the whole town. However, caitou will never allow the free people to open up wasteland without permission, because all wasteland is owned by the Lord.

As for hyenas, they do dirty work. Their main role is to use intimidation and force to control those disobedient free people. After all, the Lords taboo killing free people directly. Hyenas are the most ferocious and miserable. Most hyenas will die. Their backstage boss is the sheriff.

The monkey drank a whole glass of purple cane wine and finally slowed down. He took a money bag from his pocket and respectfully handed it to the nearby guard.

"My Lord, this is all my savings. I am willing to atone for it." The monkey said respectfully.

Victor took the money bag in the guard's hand, weighed it, there should be 50 kinsol in it, and threw the money bag to Lilia.

Although the monkey's face remained unchanged, there was a trace of disappointment in his eyes. That's wrong. Shouldn't the Baron throw the money bag again and encourage me to serve him well?

But how could the monkey know that Victor's local tyrant has been installed to bankruptcy. Although the mosquito leg is small, it is also meat!

"Monkey, it seems that you have plenty of money in your business. You have made so much in just a few days?" Said Victor with a smile.

"It all depends on adults. Now many shop owners want me to get purple sugarcane wine." The monkey said flatteringly.

Victor didn't expect that purple cane wine would be so popular. Behind these bosses are all lords. Obviously, they are buying purple cane wine and going back to cellar, because the wine is more expensive.

"Monkey, I don't kill you because I'm very interested in the man behind you. Can you tell me who he is?" Victor asked, staring into the monkey's eyes.

"Sir, are you asking the sheriff?" The monkey answered carefully.

Victor stood up, walked to the window with his hand, looked at the street below and said in a deep voice, "a few months ago, I saw a hyena like you. His name is Maus. I ordered him to be executed."

"Unlike you, Maus has a strong desire to survive, and I'm deeply impressed by his wit. So, tell me, who makes you so different?" Victor turned and smiled at the monkey.

Looking at Victor's deep and unpredictable eyes, the monkey was cold. His intuition told him that as long as he dared to lie or hide, he would die immediately.

"Yes, it's master Barol." Said the monkey in a trembling voice.

"I've been with Lord Barol for a year. Lord Barol told me not to be clever in front of noble masters. If the masters want me to die, I can only die. Only honesty and ability can make the masters look up. If they still die, either their luck is too bad or their ability is not enough. If they don't die, they can live a good life. For us He said, "every good day is earned! Therefore, there is no regret for death."

Quietly listening to the monkey finish, Victor asked, "where are the barons?"

"He died. He played tricks, so he died in the free people's camp outside the city." The monkey bowed his head and replied.

"Do you have anything close to Barol?" Victor asked again.

"And some clothes and gadgets."

"Find it all and give it to old John. Go now."

Victor said to old John, "old John, take shack and dig out this Barol for me."

"Sir, is it his body?" Old John asked puzzled.

"No, I want to live."

After old John took people away, Victor sat alone in the room, vaguely excited.

There are many smart freemen, but few freemen know so much about the nobility. This insight is only available to feudal officials! Since barrow had such insight, how could he die like this? And why did he pretend to be a free man?

As far as you're concerned, can you escape the pursuit of the alchemical crow? Can you escape the capture of the monkey militia? Let me see who you really are?

A footstep outside the door attracted Victor's attention. It was the old housekeeper of Rose Manor.

"Your Excellency Victor, the countess invites you to her dinner."
