The bright moon hung high in the night sky. In the magnificent room, the wide open windows and doors, blowing in a cold and cold wind, made the oil lamp on the table flicker.
Next to the upside-down chair lay a man, dressed in a gorgeous noble youth.
At this moment, his delicate face looked pale and colorless, his eyes were closed, his lips were purple, and a sharp arrow shot into his chest imposingly and pointed directly at his heart.
“Ahem…”
Suddenly, the young man coughed suddenly and woke up. He opened his eyes and looked around blankly, only to find that it was no longer the environment he was familiar with.
“Where is this?”
“Am I in the detective agency? Hiss…”
The spouting memory appeared in his mind like a tide. Kane Gerrard was the name of this body.
As a baron who had just inherited the title, he could have had a great view, but on this night, the sudden assassination ended his life.
And Su Ming from Blue Star inherited his body at this time.
It’s also unfortunate. Su Ming just took a nap in his detective office, but he didn’t expect to woke up and crossed.
stood up swayingly, but there was a pain in his chest, Su Ming then remembered that he still had a sharp arrow stuck in his body.
“Damn, I forgot about this.”
Looking at the sharp arrow that didn’t enter the chest cavity, Su Ming didn’t know what to do, but the increasingly severe pain warned him, either pull the sharp arrow or keep it hurting.
After tangling for a while, Su Ming took a deep breath, enduring the pain of his heart, holding the tail of the arrow, and pulling out the sharp arrow.
Then, golden and red blood gushed out with the arrow, and Su Ming himself fell to the ground.
An unspeakable pain sensation appeared in his body, as if Su Ming’s own strength flowed with the blood as soon as he pulled out a sharp arrow.
clutching his **** chest, Su Ming slowly turned from kneeling to fall, and finally lost the strength to support, fell completely, and everything in front of him became sleepy and hazy.
But his will to survive kept reminding him that he couldn’t just sleep like this.
Maybe it was a **** who was also moved by him. Under his strong will, the eyelids that were already spinning, gradually opened, and an inexplicable sense of comfort rushed to the whole body.
Su Ming, who no longer feels pain, relaxes in this comfort and gradually falls asleep.
……..
early morning.
There was a knock on the door when the bright sunlight entered the room.
“咚咚咚.”
“My Lord Kane.”
Maintaining the posture of last night, Su Ming fell on the ground, no, it should be Kane, and opened his eyes again.
He struggled to get up from the floor and wiped a handful of wet cheeks, only to realize that his whole body was covered with blood.
But what makes Kane feel strange is that the blood that should have dried up or coagulated is dripping from his body like running water at this moment.
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Kane tore off his tattered shirt.
looked at his chest, he showed such an expression as expected.
The blood hole left by pulling out the sharp arrow before, has now healed, leaving only a hideous scar.
I am afraid that something has changed in this body of my own last night. Kane clearly knows that even if he has the first-order elementary strength in his memory, it is impossible to have such an ability.
Looking at the big puddle of golden red blood on the floor, Kane shook his head mockingly. That’s right, people who can keep the blood in this place shouldn’t be a normal person.
At this time, an inquiring sound came from outside the door again.
”Baron Kane?”
Listening to this familiar voice, Kane knew the identity of the outsider, his personal servant Enqin.
As a servant who grew up with Kane, he is deeply trusted by himself.
Unknown whether the assassin came from outside the fort or inside the fort, Enqin was the person he trusted the most.
Immediately, Kane opened the door and pulled Enqin into the room.
“Master Kane, what’s the matter with you?” Looking at Kane, whose whole body was stained with blood, Enqin asked anxiously.
Kane patted Enqin on the shoulder, motioned for him to calm down, and said, “Enqin, I’m fine, don’t ask more about this, you should clean up here first and remember to leave arrows.”
Seeing that Kane didn’t want to say more, Enqin suppressed the doubt in his heart and began to clear it up.
On the other side, Kane, who had finished his order, went to the bathroom alone to clean it.
After washing and dressing again, Kane walked out of the room and was led by another maid to the dining room.
After he took his seat, the servant waiting aside began to serve the morning, and the housekeeper Jace also walked in at this time.
In the memory of the original owner, this Jess butler is an old man who has assisted the family since the previous baron, and his experience is very sophisticated.
“Master Kane, the warm red wine is ready for you. Would you like to serve it now?”
”Serve it, Jace.”
“As you wish, Lord Kane.”
Jace took the red wine from the servant and poured it slowly into Kane’s glass.
While , Kane also observed the expressions of everyone, but whether it was Jace or the others, it was as usual.
It seems that they didn’t know about their assassination. Could the murderer come from outside the fort?
…….
After breakfast, Kane, in accordance with the original habits, came to the training ground outside the castle and started daily morning exercises.
Waved the long sword in his hand, Kane absently slashed towards the training dummy.
While trying to maintain the original daily life, Kane kept thinking about who it was and wanted to assassinate himself at this juncture.
is Jace? Obviously not. As the steward of the castle, he has no reason to assassinate himself.
Will it be Marcus? A strong and steady figure emerged in Kane’s mind, but then he shook his head again. As his own canonized knight, the other party would not make such an unwise choice.
It definitely won’t be Catherine. She and Marcus are all supernatural beings cultivated by her own family. Once she falls, they themselves will be greatly affected.
put down the long sword in his hand, took the towel handed by the servant, Kane wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued to think, except for all the people in the castle, it could only be an assassination from the outside world.
The morning exercise soon ended, and Kane returned to his study again.
At this time, the study had been cleaned by Enqin. He stood aside and handed the weapon arrow to Kane.
took the arrow, Kane told: “Enqin~IndoMTL.com~Remember not to pass on the things in the room.”
Enqin nodded: “Yes, I see, Lord Kane.” Then he consciously left the study.
After the opponent closed the door, Kane picked up the arrow and tried to figure it out. There is a protruding part at the end of the arrow, and the feathers that should have been at the tail are above this part. Deconstruction of a typical crossbow arrow.
At the same time, the crossbow arrow style is also a common commodity. Obviously, the assassin did not want people to be aware of his identity.
put down the arrow, Kane came to the window, assuming that his previous reasoning was true, then the murderer might have entered the room from outside.
The windows of the study room looked very clean, thanks to the servants coming to clean it every day, but Kane still found some doubts under the window.
looked down, the majestic stone walls propped up the entire castle, but at some positions below the windows, Kane noticed that one or two stone bricks looked a little different.
They all lack a leg, and the missing position is right on both sides of the window.
This tiny detail, if it weren’t for Kane’s previous career, would definitely not be noticed by ordinary people.
As expected, the murderer came in from outside.
Then, the murderer who can escape multiple inspections outside the fort and easily climb the city wall to assassinate himself must be an extraordinary person, even higher than himself.
This gives Kane a little headache. The transcendents have their own unique powers, and they are far from being an existence that ordinary soldiers can resist.
Besides, now the other party is in the dark, and he is in the light. Once he finds out that he is still alive, he will definitely come to assassinate again.
Kane must make a plan before the opponent’s assassination.
