Guidebook for the Dark Duke

"Arrest?" Duke Wilson raised his tone: "What kind of evidence does he have? Why did he suddenly want to arrest Colonel Mel?" Duke Wilson frowned at Butler Chris.

Steward Chris grinned in embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "This... I don't know, but Sheriff Chandler looks very determined, and I also..."

Duke Wilson frowned and waved his hand: "Let him in."

Chandler was actually arrested at his house. I really don't know if he is too sure or looks down on himself.

After a while, Sheriff Chandler walked in following Butler Chris. He looked very cautious, but when he looked at Colonel Mel, his eyes were very sharp.

"Your Excellency." He nodded slightly, "I'm sorry to bother you."

Duke Wilson looked at him with a cold expression: "I heard that you came here to arrest Mel. What did he do wrong?"

"I think you should have heard about the murder case in the town from Colonel Meyer, right?" Sheriff Chandler was not intimidated by Duke Wilson's serious expression, but said very rationally: "I I have always doubted Colonel Mel's innocence, but just now, I found out that the relationship between Colonel Mel and Sister Elisa is not as simple as he stated, so I want to invite Colonel Mel to the police station to talk this problem."

What Sergeant Chandler said was well-founded, and Duke Wilson didn't know how to refute it for a while. He looked at Colonel Mel's words with a bit of hatred, and his emotions were very complicated.

"In that case, then follow Sheriff Chandler for a while." Facing Colonel Meyer, who looked terrified, Duke Wilson said very coldly: "If you are innocent, I very much hope that you can Clear the suspicion as soon as possible." When he said this, his expression was very meaningful.

Colonel Mel nodded a little stiffly, feeling terrified in his heart.

Sheriff Chandler did not expect Duke Wilson to be so easy-going, and his expression flashed with surprise.

"Thank you very much for your accommodation." Sergeant Chandler nodded at the Duke and said gently.

Duke Wilson waved his hand impatiently and didn't say much.

Sheriff Chandler took Colonel Mel away, but Duke Wilson's face suddenly sank. Colonel Mel, as his confidant, unexpectedly became a murder suspect on the first day he came back. People, no matter what the final truth is, anyway, for the current Duke Wilson, this will make his face very ugly, let alone in the small village of Delan Lille, if Duke Wilson guessed correctly, he will not come out tonight , I'm afraid that everyone in the whole village will know. Thinking of this, Duke Wilson's face became even more ugly.

Duke Wilson's prediction was not wrong at all. Later that day, Evan heard about it. At that time, he was saying his last prayers in front of the altar. Mrs. Sanders happened to come in from the outside, her face With a touch of forbearable excitement.

"What's wrong with you?" Evan asked with some doubts.

Mrs. Sanders's lips trembled slightly, and then she hesitated to say: "Colonel Mel has been arrested."

This sentence has no beginning and no end, if it is someone who may not understand it, but Evan understood her meaning at once, frowned and said: "So fast?"

Seeing that Evan suddenly understood a little bit of herself, Mrs. Sanders was a little surprised: "Did you already know about this?"

Evan nodded: "Butler Chris once said that at the station." He couldn't wait for Mrs. Sanders to say something, and immediately asked eagerly: "What happened? Why was Colonel Mel suddenly arrested? "

Mrs. Sanders couldn't help sighing: "You have heard of such a terrible thing. This is really a shameful thing for the church, even if it is a matter of the Catholic Church..." Mrs. Sanders still Couldn't help but sighed, and then continued: "I heard from Simon, who works in the police station, that a little nun went to the police station today and reported to Sergeant Chandler that Sister Eliza and Colonel Mel were different. Because of the usual relationship, Colonel Mel was arrested by Colonel Mel."

Evan couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect that the friend in Colonel Mel's story was really himself.

"What does Duke Wilson say?" The relationship between Colonel Mel and Duke Wilson is well known. It is impossible for Duke Wilson not to react to something like this happened to Colonel Mel.

"Oh, this incident is really dramatic." Mrs. Saunders finally had an expression on her cold face, and she said with a little excitement: "Colonel Meyer was arrested at the Cornwall Manor, in front of Wilson. The face of the Duke, this is really too bold, I can't even imagine the expression of Duke Wilson now, for a gentleman as noble as him, it is really..." Mrs. Sanders said with great sympathy.

Evan couldn't help but frown, Sergeant Chandler was so merciless in doing things, even in front of him...

"I see." Evan said calmly: "Please prepare a carriage for me, I'm going to Cornwall Manor."

Mrs. Sanders was taken aback for a moment, and then nodded understandingly: "Oh, you are a friend of the Duke of Wilson. At this time, I think the Duke needs a friend to accompany him very much."

Mrs. Sanders hurriedly went out to prepare the carriage, while Evan returned to his living room and changed the priest's robe, but his face was still ugly. He knew the character of Duke Wilson very well. He was a man with very strong self-esteem. Man, when this kind of thing happened, I was afraid that he would be more anxious than Colonel Mel himself, and the most taboo thing in this kind of situation is to be anxious. He was afraid that Duke Wilson would make things even more difficult to deal with.

When Evan came out, the carriage was ready, and Mrs. Sanders was waiting for him at the door. Evan didn't say much, but got into the carriage silently, and ran towards the Cornwall Manor.

When Evan arrived at the Cornish manor, it was already dark, and the gate of the manor was closed tightly, which looked a little gloomy. Evan got off the carriage, walked to the door and patted the door vigorously. In the past, when he came, it was daytime, and this door was not closed.

After a long time, a voice finally came from inside: "Who is it?" It sounded very immature, with a slight trembling.

Evan said in a deep voice: "I am Pastor Bruce, please tell the Duke, I have something to discuss with him."

Hearing Evan's voice, the people inside were obviously relieved: "So it's you, please wait a moment, I will report to the Duke immediately."

Because Evan often went in and out of the manor, everyone in the manor was very familiar with him, and they all knew that the relationship between him and the Duke was very close, so Evan didn't have to wait long before the door opened.

"Mr. Pastor." Unexpectedly, the person who came was Chris Butler, and a trace of surprise flashed across Evan's face.

"It's great for you to come." Butler Chris had a sincere smile on his face: "The Duke is in the study at this time, and no one is allowed to disturb him, and he hasn't had dinner yet. Maybe you are the only one who can persuade him." him."

A trace of surprise flashed in Evan's eyes when he heard this, but his brows frowned even deeper. The Duke was so angry that it seemed that he was really dissatisfied with this matter.

"I see, thank you." Evan pursed his lips with a very serious expression.

Butler Chris led Evan through most of the manor and into the castle. Only half of the lights in the hall were lit, so it looked a little dim. Evan went upstairs with the dim light, at the door of the Duke's study stopped.

Steward Chris glanced at Evan with a look of embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "Please persuade the Duke, he doesn't listen to us at all now."

Evan nodded, and Butler Chris left very sensibly.

After the figure of Chris the butler disappeared at the corner of the stairs, Evan whispered: "Charles, it's me."

Just such a sentence, there was a sudden noise in the originally silent room, and then the closed door in front of Evan suddenly opened.

"Are you here?" Duke Wilson looked a little tired, but his eyes were shining when looking at Evan.

"I heard about Colonel Mel, so I came here." Evan said with a smile.

Hearing Evan talk about this, Duke Wilson's excited eyes immediately dimmed, and he waved his hand impatiently: "I really didn't expect that Mel would be such a stupid thing, really..." As long as you think of yourself It will become the talk of the whole Delandrier, and Duke Wilson's hands trembled with anger.

Evan didn't want to see him like this very much, so he walked in with a smile, closed the door, and then stretched out his hand and hugged him into his arms.

Such a simple action made Duke Wilson's body completely stiff in an instant. He seemed to be frightened, and looked at Evan in a daze. Said: "It's really great that you are here."

Evan patted him on the back with a smile, and said in a low voice: "Don't think too much, although Colonel Mel is inseparable from you, but people in the town will not and dare not slander your reputation , this matter will pass, don't worry."

Duke Wilson couldn't help sighing when he heard this sentence, Evan was still too innocent, he didn't know the power of rumors, let alone the role played by Colonel Meyer beside him, needless to say about Delan Lille's gossip , although he also cared, but he didn't care too much. The most important thing was the things that Colonel Mel had done for him. Since his father, Colonel Mel and the Christ family have been very close. But his ability to accumulate so much wealth in a short period of time did not come out of thin air.

A hint of sternness flashed across Duke Wilson's face leaning on Evan's shoulder. The reason Colonel Mel was able to make a fortune so quickly was because he did a lot of private dirty things for his father, whether it was spying on him or not. Intelligence is still dealing with traitors. Colonel Mel seems to have a unique talent for this kind of thing. He has grown from a small soldier to the present because Duke Wilson's father has a good eye for people.

Although the matter this time is small, if it was really done by Colonel Mel, then in order to save his life, these things may be dangerous. Duke Wilson couldn't help but clenched his fists. This time the matter was really for him. There was a problem, and now that he knew nothing about it, he had to try his best to save Colonel Mel's life, otherwise the key would pull out these things, I'm afraid his face would be even uglier than it is now, and those in London side……

Duke Wilson's expression was obscure, but when he raised his head to look at Evan, his eyes regained a gentle look, and said in a low voice: "I know, with you here, this matter will definitely be investigated. "He hates using Evan very much, but at this moment he has to do it because he can't let Evan know his other appearance.

Duke Wilson's expression was firm and calm.
