Ms. Wang Weina, my cousin can't do it either

It was only his family who launched the rebellion and suffered liquidation. If the aristocratic Republican Party was confessed, the storm would sweep the entire Victoria. And those grand dukes who are equal to him, who must be very worried at the moment, will all be implicated!

It's just a rebellion, and His Royal Highness Wayne from Londinium's side may be able to see that he once fought for his father, the King of the North, and has worked hard without credit.But if all those people were involved, tomorrow...no, tonight, the Normandy family would disappear from this land.

The Duke of Normandy has made up his mind. Anyway, Heidi is dead. It is said that the notes recording the evidence of the aristocratic Republican Party have also been reduced to ashes with an explosion and fire. With the existence of the association, Ernest couldn't do anything to him.

As for extorting confessions by torture?That's impossible. As a duke, although he may be less powerful than Ernest in terms of power, they are equal in terms of title. Duke Ernest has no right to torture himself, who is also a grand duke. You have to torture yourself, unless the two Aslan royal families in Londinium are present in person.

But the Duke of Normandy knew very well that that was impossible.The northern border has long been blocked by his soldiers, and all the mobile cities have deviated from the established converging waterway. Under the foggy conditions, neither His Royal Highness Wayne nor His Majesty the Queen can risk their lives and run to Come from the north.

As for the students of the Royal Military Academy, the highest person behind them is the duke who is at the same level as him, and it is even more impossible for anyone to have the power to replace torture.

The Duke of Normandy leaned back confidently on the back of the seat, looked at Ernest standing opposite the table by the lamp on the interrogation table, and smiled slightly.

Duke, just a few dukes, how can they beat me in Normandy?

If you can suddenly jump out of a royal family and kill me, I, the Duke of Normandy, will eat this lamp on the spot!

The Duke of Normandy leaned back tactically, and said indifferently to Ernest:

"What's the matter? Norfolk, can't figure out how to talk to an old friend? Or, at a loss?"

Ernest glanced at him and said, "It's not me who interrogated you."

Just as he was speaking, the door to the basement opened. With the materials that the Unicorn temporarily helped organize in his hand, Wayne glanced at everyone present, nodded, pulled out a chair and sat opposite the Duke of Normandy, and said:

"Sorry, I'm late, I checked the situation with Unicorn temporarily."

Immediately afterwards, he looked at the Duke of Normandy in front of him, with a bit of confusion on his face, and asked:

"Although I understand, I understand a little bit, but I still don't understand. Why don't you tell me yourself, Mr. Normandy, what kind of guts did you have to openly rebel against Aslan!"

"There is absolutely no such thing!"

The Duke of Normandy suddenly sat up straight, leaning his upper body forward and almost touching Wayne's face. Even so, he felt that it was not enough, so he stood up from the chair with a snap, and explained loudly:

"You are His Royal Highness Wayne, I know you, I hugged you when I was young, ah no, I hugged you when you were young, you have to believe me, I am absolutely sure that you have no intention of rebelling. All this is my fault son!"

The Duke of Normandy really panicked. He never expected that Wayne would appear here, and he was still wearing the uniform of the "Royal Military Academy".What does this mean?This means that the Duke of Normandy surrounded the convoy of the Royal Military Academy not long ago, and wanted to blow up the convoy to attract Heidi and Vincent. In fact, he almost bombed His Royal Highness Wayne!

Then he wanted to coerce the nobles to order Londinium, which almost turned into kidnapping the royal family!It's still the royal family that tmd is most likely to intercede for him after the rebellion failed!

The matter has exploded, and it cannot be solved by eating a desk lamp.The Duke of Normandy doesn't intend to protect his son now. A mere son is nothing to the entire Normandy family. If one dies, there will be another litter.The most urgent thing is to explain clearly to Wayne and let him calm down.

The survival of the family is the top priority in everything!

Gritting his teeth, the Duke of Normandy said:

"It's all my unfilial son, Earl Princeton, you know him, he played outside with you back then. It was that guy who initiated the rebellion. I just went to Earl Vincent to deal with some trivial matters within the nobles. , I never planned to make such a big fuss!"

The Duke of Normandy rolled his eyes and blurted out a very reasonable reason,

"The Earl of Princeton felt that I would not pass on the title of duke to him after my death, and that guy was greedy enough, so he started thinking badly. I was also going out, so how could he know that he would launch this rebellion in my name?"

He looked at Wayne with as sincere a look as possible,

"Your Highness Wayne, I am your father's loyal old subordinate, you should trust that I will not do such a treacherous thing."

The most correct way to lie is nine truths and one falsehood. He really did not expect that Princeton would launch a rebellion, and he still used his banner. It is true that he came to find Earl Vincent for some trivial matter among the nobles - to ask for a remote earl The daughter of the president of the Literary Association, isn't this a big deal for a dignified prince like him?As for him being a loyal subordinate of the King of the North, it is true or not that he had a relationship with Wayne when he was a child. All the memories of the North in Wayne's mind are very vague, so naturally he can't remember clearly, and he doesn't have it at all. reference.

The only lie in his words was the reason why the Earl of Princeton set off the rebellion. Naturally, it was not because he was afraid that he would not pass on the title to him, but because it involved the exposure of the secret association of the aristocratic Republican Party.The reason why such a title was given to Princeton is purely because the title is easy to use and difficult to prove.In the case of Heidi's death and the disappearance of evidence, it is almost impossible to dispel this reason.

If it was Wayne in the past, seeing the Duke of Normandy's tearful appearance, coupled with such a nonsense but very reasonable reason, he should follow the Duke of Normandy's script and express his trust in him.

But now Wayne is not so easy to fool.

What's more, Wayne always felt that this dude was implying something.

Afraid of not being able to win the position, so rebelling against the father?Who are you implying?Why don't you report my ID number directly?Does this person know the news about the death of the King of the North?

Wayne sneered.Your path is narrowed.Regardless of whether the Duke of Normandy is actively rebelling or being tricked passively, Wayne has his eyes on him.

"But as far as I know, your reason for rebellion doesn't seem to be this."

Wayne kicked the table, pushed the chair back a little distance, avoiding the gaze of the Duke of Normandy's big eyes, and said coldly:

"As far as I know, what kind of handle did you get caught by a little girl?"

The Duke of Normandy clicked his tongue lightly, shook his head and said:

"There is absolutely no such thing. I act upright, where did I get caught!"

"Oh?" Wayne raised the corners of his mouth, looking at the Duke of Normandy's unrepentant appearance, he couldn't help feeling a little funny.

He probably also felt that his plan to assassinate Heidi had succeeded, and the evidence of the crime had disappeared from the world together with the witnesses, right?

It's a pity that it's just a little bit short.

Wayne didn't speak, but turned to look at the unicorn beside him, and clapped his hands.The unicorn nodded knowingly, turned and left the interrogation room.

The Duke of Normandy couldn't help feeling cold, is he going to torture himself?

Wayne is here, he is undoubtedly a member of the real royal family, and has the right to use punishment on himself, the duke.The unicorn just went out to get the instrument of torture, right?

Taking a deep breath, the Duke of Normandy looked at Wayne seriously, and said:

"His Royal Highness, whether you believe me or not, I will only answer this way. All of this is my godson's incompetence. It has nothing to do with the Normandy family, and it has nothing to do with the tricks you said. No matter what you do to me I will not change my confession even if I am punished.”

Wayne spread his hands indifferently: "Are you still stubborn at this time? Then I'm going to slap you with the whip called complete defeat!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the basement door behind him opened again, and the unicorn led the Filin girl with short pink hair into the dimly lit basement.

One step after another, the light of the lamp gradually illuminates the figure of the visitor from bottom to top.The Duke of Normandy's ready-to-go argument was blocked in his throat in an instant, his mouth could not help but grow, and his eyes began to be a little dazed, as if the girl whose face was half illuminated by the light of the desk lamp was a ghost from hell Generally speaking, he was terrified and speechless.

I saw Heidi put her right hand on her chest towards Wayne, lifted her long skirt with her left hand, bowed slightly and performed a standard aristocratic audience etiquette, and repeated it to the Duke of Normandy, and said softly:

"The witness, Heidi Thomson, has met His Highness, Grand Duke."

Chapter 118 Chapter 62 Give me your notes

"Heidi...Heidi..."

The Duke of Normandy looked at the girl in front of him in a daze, and stretched out his hand suddenly, wanting to touch Heidi's face.But not surprisingly, he was indifferently intercepted by the unicorn standing aside.

"Criminals, please don't act at will."

"I'm not a criminal!"

The Duke of Normandy came back to his senses suddenly, and refuted loudly, but his confidence was much weaker than before.His gaze was fixed on Heidi, like a wild beast that preyed on people, making the film girl take a step back in fear, but soon, she puffed up her chest again, and took another step forward, with a firm gaze stared back.

"Duke of Normandy, it's me."

As if to cut off the last sliver of luck in the heart of the Duke of Normandy, Heidi said seriously, word by word.With the same voice and the same appearance, the Duke of Normandy can no longer deceive himself. The person in front of him is not an illusion at all, she is Heidi Thomson.

"But...why?"

The Duke of Normandy murmured, and Wayne waved his hand, making Heidi step back slightly, crossing his fingers into a pyramid shape, and said with a smile:

"Are you surprised? Not only was Miss Heidi not killed by the explosion on the mountain road as you imagined, but she also appeared here unscathed?"

The Duke of Normandy was slightly taken aback, as if he understood something, and asked:

"You saved him?"

Wayne didn't pay much attention to such details because he didn't use honorifics, but the frowns of the unicorn who was proficient in interrogation and Ernest, who knew a little about psychological warfare, slowly relaxed.This kind of performance means that the psychological defense of the Duke of Normandy is under tremendous pressure, so that he has no leisure to think and care about this kind of etiquette that is dispensable under the current conditions.

This is what shocked them.As an old comrade-in-arms who once fought alongside the Duke of Normandy, Ernest naturally knew in his heart that this Grand Duke, who was the deputy commander of the Northern King's Army before his arrival, was by no means an ordinary person, and his mental quality was definitely comparable to his military quality. match.But Wayne did shake his psychological defense with three consecutive "surprises" after his debut, which is amazing.And the unicorns are also a little emotional. If Wayne is not Aslan's royal family, such an interrogation talent, they will definitely try their best to recruit to join the intelligence organization of the clock tower, and they will definitely be a giant in Victoria's shadow in the future.

Recalling that it was only a few minutes ago, the Duke of Normandy's confident and easy-going appearance, compared with the current posture of forced calm, Winston and Ernest couldn't help laughing.In just a few minutes, in just a few minutes, His Highness Wayne accurately grasped the weakness of the Duke of Normandy, causing him to be hit head-on when he was most proud.

As His Royal Highness said, he swung the whip called Complete Defeat to the Duke of Normandy. Using the whip is so painful but not fatal in one blow. It is more humiliating than killing the enemy. This kind of interrogation method that makes the Duke of Normandy go to despair step by step is simply perfect.

And for unicorns who advocate torture to extract confessions, this method is more ornamental than practical. It has to be said that it may also be one of His Highness Wayne's bad tastes.

Wayne nodded:

"My men saved him."

Shirtel and Muyan are naturally Wayne's people, there is nothing wrong with this sentence.

But in the ears of the Duke of Normandy, Wayne put on such a relaxed expression, and the meaning of saying these words is to remind him——I have seen through your conspiracy a long time ago, and Heidi has been under my protection from the beginning down.

No wonder, no wonder the Sarkaz mercenaries he hired encountered accidents every time they acted.

He glanced at the crowd knowingly, and as expected, he found the green-haired figure in the security uniform, and his mood couldn't help but drop a bit lower.

Sarkaz's mercenaries sent wild beasts to lure Earl Vincent's plan without any problems, but "accidentally" encountered a thunderous blow from the security guards of the mansion, and a few wild beasts turned into flower fertilizer in the blink of an eye.The Duke of Normandy thought it was bad luck at the time, and happened to hit Earl Vincent, who had lost his mind and hired a powerful security guard.Now it seems that, as expected, the security guard is also someone who has been arranged by Wayne long ago.Otherwise, with only one servant, how could he enter the venue where he, the duke, was being interrogated?

He recalled the scene of the battle that shattered the mountain road that he witnessed on the cliff. He searched the crowd, and as expected, he found the man standing at the gate in the distance, guarding the gate, wearing a hat and coir raincoat. back.Although there is a slight difference in body shape, the unique outfit cannot be a coincidence, it is one of the two parties that triggered the mountain collapse war on the mountain road.

The Duke of Normandy assured that he had never seen such a person or force in the northern border, and he was able to stand here majestically at this moment, that is to say, he was also from Wayne.

A touch of despair began to pervade the heart of the Duke of Normandy. This feeling of helplessness that had been calculated from the beginning to the end, and if it hadn't been explained by Wayne himself, he might not even be able to discover the truth until now, made the Duke of Normandy, who was once utterly astonished. Fengyun's battlefield veterans were all terrified.

He raised his head, looked at Wayne, and asked with the last glimmer of hope:

"The notes are also..."

Wayne raised an eyebrow.

What notes?

He turned his head and looked at Heidi, with some guesses in his mind.

This note, probably what Heidi said, forced the Duke of Normandy to do everything possible to get rid of all those who knew, directly revealing the evidence of his rebellious nature, right?

But...is it actually a notebook?Wayne thought it would be something like a photo of the transaction site, or a recording of the discussion of the rebellion, this kind of evidence is more direct and less likely to be imitated.Notes are handwritten, and handwriting can easily be imitated by people who specialize in this field, and the credibility will be greatly reduced.

It is impossible for a man like the Duke of Normandy to not think of this.Why does he act like he doesn't doubt the authenticity of the notes at all?

Wayne stared at Heidi. This answer must only be given to him by this young lady.

"Heidi, give me the notes."

He said softly, holding out his hand.

Unexpectedly, Heidi hesitated. She covered her satchel, looked at Wayne, pursed her lips, and glanced at Kelsey who was beside her.

Wayne raised his eyebrows in doubt, and repeated:

"Give me the notes."

Kelsey also quietly nodded to Heidi quietly. She didn't know what was written in the note, but she had a keen sense that it could make Heidi hesitate at this time. Something, probably related to Wayne.But at this moment, Heidi cannot be allowed to hesitate. The matter has come to this point, and it is justified to hand over the notes to Wayne.

Heidi finally sighed softly, took out the notebook from her satchel, and handed it to Wayne.

The notebook is sealed with a thick layer of thick-hoofed animal skin. Although it looks like it has been around for a long time, it doesn't feel worn out at all.This kind of full-hoofed animal hide specialized in the field of clothing, bred by the rich-hoofed people of Minos, is similar to the cowhide of Wayne's previous life, but it feels better and is more expensive.In Victoria, there are not a few people who use this kind of leather to make leather boots and other clothing, but it is the first time that Wayne has seen such a luxurious notebook with such a high-quality animal skin as the cover outside the royal private library. arrive.

People who have used this notebook are either rich or expensive.

Wayne was a little surprised, and opened the book cover in front of the Duke of Normandy who covered his face and sighed in complete despair.

The handwriting that came into view was unfamiliar yet familiar, and Wayne couldn't help squinting his eyes, searching in his mind while reading the contents of the notes.

"May 1085, 5 in the Terra calendar, sunny."

"The crusade against the wandering alien species that suddenly appeared in the northern border has finally officially ended today. With the experience of last time, this time our combat method against these infected beasts has become much more mature, and the casualties have been kept to a minimum. To an extent, and, unexpectedly, I also got a pleasant surprise."

"In the monster's lair, the legion accidentally rescued a little girl from Vayvan. She was seriously injured and couldn't even speak her name. I plan to take her home."

"That way, Wayne won't be alone when I'm away from home."

Wayne closed his notebook.Looking at the Duke of Normandy in front of him, he said coldly:

"Now what else do you have to say?"

The Duke of Normandy bowed his head in silence.

Winston stepped up and took over Venn's position. His Royal Highness Venn's mission has been completed. Unexpectedly, the royal power was not used to torture the Duke of Normandy to extract a confession, but the result was still very perfect.The rest is their job.Winster has a lot of experience, how to get the most and the most valuable information from an almost desperate population.

Wayne nodded and stepped aside.

He glanced at Heidi and put the notebook into his arms.Frankly speaking, the short passage he had just read contained nothing about the reasons for the Duke of Normandy's rebellion.The final questioning was just an impromptu showdown, but fortunately there was no overturning.

But this does not mean that Wayne lost interest in this notebook, on the contrary, his interest in this notebook has greatly increased.

Because, from this short page, Wayne has deduced the identity of the person who wrote this note.

The only miracle in Victoria who successfully resisted the rule of Londinium as a local warlord, the former ruler of the northern border, the person he is most familiar with and the most unfamiliar.

His father - King of the North.
