Looking at the elegant letter in front of him, Knight Conan was obviously a little surprised. He raised his head, looked at the old man in front of him, then lowered his head, and looked at the letter again.

"It was found in my poor boy's pocket."

The old man's complexion was quite haggard, giving the impression that he had aged ten years overnight, while Knight Conan stretched out his hand after the other party signaled, picked up the letter, opened it, and then read it.But soon, Conan Knight's expression began to become weird and strange, even hiding a bit of anger.But even so, he still forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart, and only after reading the letter did he look at the old man again.

"Excuse me, what is said in this letter..."

"...It should be true."

The old man bowed his head deeply at this moment, showing a repentant expression.And Conan Knight also turned red and white, not knowing what to say.

What is recorded in this letter is nothing but a series of atrocities committed by the son of the city lord who died before, including but not limited to violence against women, beating and injuring civilians, and even raped peasant women for the sake of beauty. , After getting it, I felt bored and afraid that she would cause trouble, so I sent my subordinates to kill the other party's family, and even pretended to be a fire accident.

To be honest, Knight Conan came back here as a sheriff only two days ago, but he also knew about several of these incidents, but because he just came here, he hadn't had time to investigate.Now it seems...someone has already dealt with it from beginning to end.

This bastard fell to his death is really cheap for him!If this was caught by the temple, it would at least be a public execution!

"What does this letter mean?"

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Knight Conan also looked at the old man.He didn't believe that the city lord called him here to confess his son's crimes.

"Let me explain."

At this moment, standing behind the old man, a man dressed as a housekeeper took over the conversation.

"It's a 'death verdict.'"

"……………I do not quite understand you."

"Knight Conan just came here, maybe you don't know yet."

The butler bowed slightly to Knight Conan before speaking.

"In fact, recently, a mysterious assassin nicknamed 'Reaper' has appeared in this area. No one knows who he is, and no one knows whether he really exists. They only know that every time he After commissioning, the commissioned target will die in a few days due to an 'accident', and beside them, there will be letters recording the crimes of these people. It is as if they are being judged for their sins... So We also refer to it as a 'death verdict'."

"So, this is really an assassination?"

Conan Knight feels completely incredible.

"Is it the influence of some kind of magic? Or we can find a divination mage..."

"It's useless. We have hired a prophecy mage and even performed time regression, but we can't find any clues... This is also a matter of course. After all, we don't even know whether the other party is a human or a ghost."

Speaking of this, the butler also showed a self-deprecating smile.

"Not magic, and no do-it-yourself?"

Conan Knight is even more incredible.

"Can this be called an assassination?"

"But in fact, the other party has accepted the entrustment every time, and after the 'accidental' death of the target, the entrustment letter will also appear to be completed. In other words, this is indeed an 'assassination'."

"So you mean..."

"I hope Knight Conan can ask the Temple to intervene to find that assassin."

The old man raised his head and stared fixedly at Knight Conan.

"I know that my son has done unforgivable crimes. If he is caught by the temple, I can even accept beheading. However, I cannot accept that my son is killed by a despicable and shameless assassin! I hope the temple can help me find the murderer and punish him!"

"This……………"

Looking at the angry old man in front of him, Knight Conan didn't know what to say for a while.For some reason, looking at the old man in front of him, he suddenly thought of Knight Commander Brand... Maybe this is the doting of parents on their children?Conan Knight is not married yet, let alone have children, so he still can't understand.In fact, when he saw Knight Commander Brand wielding his sword to resist for his daughter in the temple, Knight Conan already found it difficult to understand the other party's thoughts.

And now...

"Sorry, Lord City Master, I have retired now. I will inform the temple about what you said, but I can't be sure how the temple will react."

"Thank you, Knight Conan, but I will not let the murderer of my child go."

"…………"

Hearing the old city lord's answer, Knight Conan didn't know what to say for a while, he could only stand up silently, saluted the old man in front of him, and then left.

"...My lord, do we really want to report this to the temple?"

Leaving the city lord's mansion, Conan's attendant hurriedly walked to his side and asked in a low voice.Facing the question from his entourage, Knight Conan was silent for a long time, then he suddenly turned his head and looked at the entourage beside him.

"Bart, I remember...you are married."

"Ah, yes, my lord."

Hearing Knight Conan's endless inquiry, the attendant froze for a moment, then nodded hastily.

"Are there any kids?"

"There is a... mischievous guy who doesn't like to learn swords all day long, just wants to go out and take risks. I really can't do anything about him... hey..."

"Then what do you think, the Lord City Lord's actions are right or wrong?"

"This……………"

Hearing this, the attendant was also taken aback for a moment, and after a while, he answered with a complicated expression.

"This...to be honest, my lord, the son of the city lord is indeed not a good thing. Frankly speaking, I am quite relieved to know that he died. But... I am not completely unable to understand the city lord, after all That was his only son..."

"Really………"

Conan Knight was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

"Follow the general procedure to declare, at least this is our responsibility."

"Yes, my lord."

When the entire city of Keha was in a commotion, the instigator of all this had already left this land of right and wrong far away.

"Nothing challenging, but at least the rewards are good."

Counting the platinum coins in the purse, Fang Zheng nodded in satisfaction.

That's right, these days, all the so-called "death murders" in this area were all written by him.

And what Fangzheng used was "Killer 47", one of the two bronze soul stones he had drawn before.

In fact, Fang Zheng has always believed that, compared to Assassin's Creed, Killer 47 is the real killer.Although many people like to use things like "Where is there so much time in life for you to sneak in, if you want to assassinate, you will be unparalleled".But this can only be used in the world of Assassin's Creed. In the main world, Assassin's Creed has no meaning at all.

Peerless?The aristocratic mansion here is full of magic traps and alarms, you, Wushuang, will be surrounded in 30 seconds.And even if you Wushuang killed someone, so what?Mage has plenty of ways to find your traces, and it will only be a matter of time before the world chases and kills you. Unless you have some props or artifacts that can conceal your identity, otherwise you think it is so easy to assassinate.
