Attack on Titan's Silent Watch

Squatting in front of Dai'er and asking: "Miss?"

Dai'er nodded to her with difficulty, Emma understood, and told the maid beside her, "Call everyone here to gather."

Ten minutes passed. Except for the servants who went out with Niobe and Icarus, the rest of the servants and maids in Sterling's house stood facing each other in a row, bowing their heads nervously and daring not to make a sound.

Kenny paced back and forth among these people, "Everyone is here?"

"Yes." Emma replied respectfully, "Everyone is here except for the servants who followed Madam and the young master to the capital."

Kenny suddenly turned around and asked Dale, "Earl Morrison, do you know who your husband's servants are?"

Dai'er was still speechless, so she could only point out a few people based on her impressions, and among them, Anna was the only maid.

"Is that so?" Kenny glanced at Emma, ​​and then moved closer to the servants one by one.Frightened by Kenny's ferocious appearance, those servants pointed out by Dai'er couldn't help trembling.

"Don't be so nervous." Kenny patted one of the servants on the shoulder, then waved to everyone, "You can all go back."

The servants breathed a sigh of relief, and when they were trembling back to their work positions, two military police stood in front of Anna. "Except for you." Kenny said deliberately waiting for Anna to be stopped.

Anna was also very scared, holding the bracelet on her wrist tightly with one hand, praying that Icarus would come back quickly.

"Do you know what I want from you?" Kenny pushed Anna back to the corner.

"No... I don't know." Anna's voice trembled, and tears of panic flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Kenny turned to Delle, "Didn't you have anything to say when someone saw your husband hooking up with this maid on the wedding night?"

Dai'er shook her head silently, she really had nothing to say.

"Next question, is it true that the maid seduced your husband?"

Dai'er turned her head and looked at Emma who was standing behind her. She was also sweating profusely at the moment. She dared not answer this question, otherwise Icarus would not let her go.Dai'er understood Emma's situation, and she was also a little entangled in whether to give an affirmative answer.At this moment, Anna was looking at her with pitiful eyes, and her moist eyes made her heart soften.

Pursing her lips, Dai'er turned her head away from looking at Anna and Kenny.After looking away, the psychological pressure seemed to be less severe. She stammered and said, "Captain A... Kerman must... must have obtained... the evidence before he came here. I... Is it important to say?"

"It's true, I didn't expect Earl Morrison to be quite sensible." Kenny showed a cracked smile, revealing a bloodthirsty temperament. Without words, Anna was almost paralyzed on the ground in despair.But suddenly, she didn't know where the courage came from, and she rushed straight to Dai'er, stretching out her hands to grab Dai'er's neck and die with her.

Anna's intentions failed, and she was subdued by another military police within two steps. She could only knelt on the ground and shouted hoarsely at Dai'er: "It's all because of you! If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't It will become what it is today!" The implication is that if Dai'er hadn't appeared, Icarus would not have gotten married, and she would not have been accused of having intimate acts with Icarus after the wedding banquet.

Anna's resentment stung Dill's nerves, and Kathy seemed to have said similar things when she stabbed her.She closed her eyes tightly, and repeatedly persuaded herself that it was not her fault.

Gradually, Anna no longer complained, she had nothing to say, she could only wash her face with tears to express her fear of death and her grievance that her vision failed.At this time, Icarus rushed back, seeing Icarus, hope was rekindled in Anna's eyes.

"Anna?" Icarus ran over and pushed the gendarme who was holding Anna, but he didn't move at all.

Icarus had no choice but to ask Kenny angrily, "What's going on? Let him go immediately! This is Sterling's house, and it's not your turn to make decisions!"

"I'm sorry Earl, we are here to help you clean up the family scandal. After all, a husband with a legal wife is entangled with his own maid. Do you know how much impact it will cause if it is spread?" Kenny spoke to the child The tone of speaking explained.

Icarus immediately stared at Dill viciously, "Is that you?"

"It was other nobles who reported your bad behavior to us when they saw your bad behavior on the day of your wedding banquet." Kenny answered immediately. He didn't want to protect Dai'er, but he just didn't want to cause trouble.

"I don't care, this is my territory, I order you to let her go." Icarus pointed at the ground and shouted at Kenny.

"Forgive me." Kenny took out his gun and put the barrel of the gun on the brim of his hat. "The order for this operation was issued by the parliament, unless you, Earl, intend to disobey the order of the assembly."

"What's so great about Parliament..."

Before Icarus finished speaking, Niobe realized the seriousness of the matter. Anna must die today, otherwise the Sterling family's foundation over the years will be completely destroyed.She immediately stood up and said, "Captain Ackerman, since this is the request of the council, we are inconvenient to stop it, but please take him away and deal with it."

"No!" Anna cried, trying to break free.

"Mother!" Icarus couldn't believe that even his mother was on Kenny's side, and his eyes gradually became bloodshot with anger.In the past, no matter what he wanted, his mother would help him get it. Besides, didn't she acquiesce when he was with Anna?

"Bring the young master back to the room." Niobe ordered the servant coldly.

"Yes." Two strong male servants grabbed Icarus' arms and wanted to carry him away, but Icarus refused to let go, struggling and shouting 'let go'.The servants didn't dare to use too much force, and the scene fell into chaos for a while.

Not interested in watching the farce continue, Kenny pulled the trigger when both Icarus and Anna were extremely emotional, following the principle of out of sight and out of mind.

The gunshot sounded like a thunderbolt, and the Sterling family fell into a dead silence.Bright blood spread in the center of the hall to the surroundings.In the pool of blood, Anna opened her frightened eyes and twitched a few times before not moving.Icarus stared blankly at this scene, and no longer resisted. The worldview he had cultivated since childhood gradually collapsed in front of the cruel reality.

Dai'er hadn't seen such a scene for a long time, and the smell of blood brought back the terrible memories buried deep in her heart. The scenes of her parents being killed and herself being trafficked alternately overlapped with the scene in front of her, making her stunned and unable to move.

Niobe stared sullenly at the corpse on the ground, and took two steps back before the pool of blood spread to his feet.The crisp sound of high heels touching the marble floor awakened everyone present.

Kenny said, "Sorry for messing up your floors."

Niobe maintained the reserve that a noble lady should have, and could not hear the emotional fluctuations, "It's okay." But the moment she looked at Kenny, she had already issued the order to expel the guest with her eyes.

Afterwards, the group of central gendarmes dressed in black filed out, and soon disappeared into the vast night.

After the Central Gendarmerie left, the hall fell silent again.The blood was still dripping, and Niobe looked at the corpse with a little more disgust in her eyes. She continued to order: "Clean up the hall."

The servants only bent down to acknowledge receipt, and no one dared to say anything, because Icarus was looking at Niobe from the air with resentful eyes at this time, his chest was obviously heaving up and down, and the sound of breathing concealed that he would burst out at any time. the beast.When the servants brought a thick sheet and spread it next to Anna's body, Icarus finally went mad and yelled at Niobe: "Why did you do this? Why didn't you stop them from killing Anna? "

The deafening roar made the servants carrying the corpse tremble in fright. They could only speed up, wrap the corpse in a sheet, and trot away from the powder keg of Icarus.

Niobe fanned her fan lightly, trying to quench her anger first, otherwise the mother and son would not be able to have a good conversation.After a while, Niobe slowly said: "Because you really broke the rules, if you insist on staying with that maid, you must give up the title of earl, and Dolores will succeed you as the new earl."

"Since you know it's impossible for us, why do you still allow us to be together?"

"I thought you were just playing for fun, but I didn't expect you to take it seriously." Niobe regretted it now, why couldn't she be ruthless and dismiss Anna at the beginning, because she was too conniving with Icarus.She hoped that this bloody lesson would make Icarus realize his responsibility and measure of doing things.

Icarus refused to accept, "Then why can Dolores go to investigate the corps and even defend them? Isn't her behavior the most deserving of being killed?"

Niobe scolded: "The purpose of her participation in the investigation corps is to seize the family's inheritance rights. She even brought the evidence that you testified against the investigation corps. In comparison, what can you get with that maid?" ?”

"Hahaha..." Icarus cried and laughed, it was a desperate laugh.

"Since the council already knows about you and the maid, it means that many other nobles also know about it. Three days later, you and Delise will go to the royal capital to attend a banquet to show your attitude. Only Only in this way can the impact of this matter be minimized." Niobe said to Icarus.

Icarus ignored it, staggered like he was drunk, turned and returned to his room.The servants did not dare to support him, and they all followed him like an invisible man, and only carefully supported him when he was about to fall to prevent him from being injured.

Niobe stands alone
