Pivot of the Sky

Chapter 147: 145, She's the Murderer

Dragon Teng did not disturb General Amonda's “elegance," he simply told the brothel owner: "Do you know who General John is hosting today? Empire General Amon! You wait carefully and tell me when the General has had all the fun. Let's just say that Longteng came by, solved a little trouble, let the general have fun. It's rare to go back to Dreamfield, don't let it spoil you. ”

Dragon Teng caught a group of people who were still angry, left the brothel and headed straight for Shengyi's mansion. He broke three doors in a row and pulled Shengyi, who was healing, out of bed.

Sung Yi is waiting for news of his companion's capture of John. Unexpectedly, it is the great warrior Longteng who broke into the door. Dragon Teng didn't touch his right leg just fixed with a splint, but waved his hand and broke his left leg again. Sung Yi fainted on the spot and Lung Teng woke him up and said: "Do you know what you've done? How dare you commit an armed assault in front of Imperial General Amon! ”

Longteng wanted to take Sheng Yi into the barracks too, but seeing as he broke his legs was not easy to dispose of, he had to send someone to wait for him to take it back, so he simply didn't take it away, anyway, he couldn't escape.

Why would Longteng do that? In fact, he also hates Sung Yi's people. John and Long Teng fought side by side, gained glory through military merit, but was impeached by a dwarf and taken from his post. This was a blow to Amon's face. Dragon Teng, who was also the commander of the regiment under Amon, had a fire in his heart and thought it was an insult to the glory of the samurai.

To say that the “glorious story” of the fighting was no worse than John's when Dragon was younger, and had a solid foundation in the Ecu military, never afraid of anyone. Now he is the chief samurai of the Temple of Isis and the leader of the Imperial Legion. He has naturally become much more stable, but he has never caused any trouble. Who has ever caused him any trouble? Today is the day to seize the opportunity. He is taking offense for Amon and John, as well as for the general on the front line.

Isn't it breaking a leg, John? What's he afraid of? Besides, if it's not for no reason, who can dragonfly him because of it?

Dream Fest City was a bustling night! Dragon Teng seized so many noble children at once, how could these people not have family and friends, the city is almost fried. Many of the relatives and friends of the captured people ran to the main city hall to ask for their release, but they were not in the city prison. The owner of Daya City found Longteng night after night and ordered him to be released.

Said it was an order, in fact, it was painful to ask Longteng to let people go first, then to find out what was going on before it was too late to dispose of them, and to keep these aristocratic children in the military camp what is the matter? Dragon Teng barely nodded and promised to let people go, but specifically said: "People can let people go first, but things can't be done. These men are armed in the middle of the night in an attempt to attack General Amunda. Be sure to find out and deal with it! ”

The next day, a bunch of people went to the main city residence to declare, naturally accusing General Amunda of condoning John's assault, and instructing Legion Leader Longteng to arrest people in the middle of the night. These people suffered a great loss, and took the opportunity to count the accounts on Amundo. Daya City owner sent someone to ask Amon for information, and Amon disappeared again. The general reportedly caught a hooker last night and took the girl and her bodyguard out to visit the city today.

How did Amon get out of town with Themis at this hour? Last night, Dragon Teng had a big nightmare, and Amon didn't know it beforehand. He didn't expect the leader of the regiment to intervene to make things so big, and he had to start all over again.

……

John was so powerful, he threw Sung Yi and his dog and friend Fox Party out of the brothel, walked back to the incense hall with a large number of stolen swords, threw a pile of weapons into the ground, shouted and dude removed that broken screen, and moved a new block in front of the door, which jumped over the sink prayer: “I'm sorry to disturb the general's exhilaration. ”

Amon laughed: "Xiao Xiao Xiao, how can you disturb the general's enthusiasm? It's just a tiny little scene, come on, let's keep drinking. ”

The girls in the brothel have seen a lot of fights, but they've never seen anything like it. John is too "brave” and this young man is too tall! Lord Sung Yi and his guests are just a bunch of Xiao Xiao Xiao. He is not even qualified to disturb this young man's drinking pleasure. What is he really?

The girl at the party would always observe Yan Guangdong, just now a frightened pink face was white, at this moment the smile was open, and she held John with her hands together, and couldn't help but raise a glass to toast Amon. Themis stood with a glass full of wine and shouted to John in the “flower bush": "This general, little lady, toast to your invincibility! Your name is John. Who's General John? ”

John hasn't answered yet, brothel owner Dylan ordered the guys to move a brand new screen, move it from another fragrance hall temporarily, and remove two new doors in exchange for this fragrance hall being kicked. Dyland stood across the sincere terror from the sink: "General Amonta, I don't know if you're here, forgive me! Lord Longteng has just passed by, he has taken down all your sinners and asked me to tell you to have fun. It is rare to go back to Dreamfield, don't spoil the fun! ”

Several girls screamed in surprise and shouted: "Amon, Empire General Amon! Oh, my God, is that really you? ”

Amon smiled slightly: "I'm Amon. Don't be surprised. This is my SS captain, General John, and a former commander of the Isis Regiment, who followed me to the death of thousands of horses. But I didn't expect a group of Xiao Xiao to commit a crime in front of me. ”

Dyland shuddered and quickly explained: "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding! Lord Sung Yi, they don't know it's your old man...”

Amon looked down: “Am I old? … Everyone back off, including the band behind me, I have something to talk to this Thames girl alone. ”

John thinks Amon has a crush on Themis and wants to do something nice here. He doesn't want to be disturbed. He stopped talking and turned to wave and drink: “Do you hear me? The Admiral has orders. Everybody out. No stops in the vicinity! ”

The boss, the man, the band, a dozen girls were all expelled, and John walked out of the screen and prepared to guard the door himself, but he heard Amon say, “John, I didn't ask you to go either. Come on in. ”

John turned around and went back in, not forgetting to close the new door. Skipping around the screen, he saw Thames kneel down in front of Amon and said: "So you are the Empire General Amon, the little girl has no eyes! ”

John asked with a smile, "I just kept calling him General, didn't the girl react? ”

Thermis explained somewhat awkwardly: “Guests here, who don't like to brag about each other after drinking? Even a small leader of the city guard force likes to be called the Grand General in front of the girls. Never thought today would be a true Empire General. ”

John scratched his back and asked Ammon, "General, why did you call me in when you were drinking alone with Miss Themis? ”

Amon pointed at the cup on the table: "Miss Themis was toasting you just now, this drink has not been drunk yet! ”

John laughed, “Turns out, the Admiral has always done things his way.” He picked up the cup and drank it, "said Themis.“ Thanks for the compliment, I'm dry! ”Thermis also knelt there and drank his glass.

After drinking, John asked, "Is there anything else the Great General wants? If it's all right... I'll stay outside. ”

Amon stretched his hand to the lounge chair opposite him: "Of course, something is wrong. Sit down and listen to me for a second. ”

John didn't know what Amon was going to sing, and somehow sat down again. And Amon and Yan Yue asked, kneeling in front of him, “How long have you been here, girl? John's a regular here. Why haven't you seen him before? ”

He kept her awake, and Themis had to kneel down and say, “It's been about six months. ”

And Amon asked, "You're Chenio, right? ”

Themis bowed his head: "Yes. ”

Unlike the usual descent of slaves, the so-called chino slaves are slaves for a certain period of time or under certain conditions because of certain contracts, such as accepting punishment and paying off debts. Such persons may forever lose their status as free citizens and become genuine slaves, or they may redeem their identity and restore their freedom. Prisoners of war are most commonly captured and often enslaved by enemy States, but may also be exchanged or redeemed.

Amon went on to ask, "You're still a middle-class warrior, aren't you? ”

Themis's head dropped even lower: "Yes, it's nothing short of the eyes of the general, I'm a Class IV samurai. ”

The next question for Amon was, “You must have been to Ecuadorian Dudez, right? ”

Themis replied subconsciously: "Yes, I have been there before. ”

And Amon laughed, “You can get up and sit next to General John. ”

John was even more puzzled when he asked, "General, what do you mean? Why don't you let Miss Themischi drink with you? ”

"John, didn't you always wonder who killed Redross? The cleric who impeached you in the book is also Sung Yi's distant cousin. Now the killer is here. You saw her! ”

John stood up and said, "What! Did she kill Redross? Grand General, are you kidding me? ”

Themis just stood up to go to John and suddenly heard Amon, his face instantly grew white and his body was not in control of shivering. If you look at her reaction, you can see that Amon is right.

Amon picked up the glass and sipped gently: "John, you don't have to be surprised.... Girl, you don't have to be afraid. If I let everyone down, I want to give you a chance to explain why I killed Redross and why I tried to do it again today. Even if you can kill Sung Yi on such occasions, you will surely die. Who gave you the courage to do this, or did someone persecute you? ”

Themis knelt down again: "General, no one has forced me, all this is my own choice, no matter what the cost, and willing to bear any consequences. ”

John was so stunned, Amon, how did you know that one of the girls in the brothel was the one who killed Redross? Previous causes and consequences are complicated and simple because Amon is able to perceive the real emotions in others' hearts.

When Sung Yiti sword rushed in, Themis consciously wanted to reach out and hold the sword. Amon really sensed the upsurge in the girl's heart - she wanted to kill Sung Yi! This is so unexpected that a girl became a middle-class samurai, but fell into a brothel to perform a sword dance, and when she saw a sudden homicidal intent from a noble lord, the killing was intense and almost irrepressible, with obvious hatred.

George looked at the investigation file into the assassination of Redross and told Amon the results. Redross died in a bed in the bedroom when his underwear was just half untied and his face was frightened and overwhelmed. He was a cleric, not without the power to defend himself, and when he was assassinated, no movement was transmitted outside. He was apparently assassinated in close proximity without any protection at all. He was unwrapping his underwear, and the scene was very intriguing.

Red Ross is a Dreamfisher, hanging out with his cousin Sung Yi often, many bad things are done by two people, these things George also told Amon. Found out today that Themis wanted to kill Sung Yi, and remembered the strong dissatisfaction the girl had just entered the door, Amon understood that she wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate today. Reminded of what happened when Redross was assassinated, and asked Themis a few seemingly irrelevant questions, Amon came to a conclusion.

But Thermis didn't know that, and Amon didn't say it in a speculative tone, but told John that she was the one who killed Redross. The tone must be unquestionable and highly unpredictable! He is General Amon of the Empire, so bluntly spoken, that Themis is no longer able to conceal, and does not want to deny, the rumor that Ray is so desperate.

John actually admitted to Themis, stepping forward: "Why? Why did you kill him? ”

Themis raised his head and his face was filled with tears: "General, you have returned with honor, and prestige has spread throughout the continent to all the countries raised. But what about the soldiers who died in the sandbox? They have sacrificed their lives unwittingly, and their families have suffered grief and suffering. My brother's name is Jules, he served in your army and died in battle. ”

John slapped him in the head and said, "What! Are you Jules' sister? I remember him, a squad leader of the An-La Legion, who fought very bravely and died in a raid to cover the Grand General's infiltration into the Hati Line, one of the first heroes of the An-La Legion to die. ”

Amon frowned slightly: "Jules? I remember that name, and he was on the list of pension awards submitted to the Imperial Army. Girl, get up and sit down and talk. John, you pour her a drink.... I just don't understand, what does this have to do with you assassinating Redross? ”

Themis' body was still shaking slightly, and John took her to the lounge and handed her another glass of wine, listening to the girl tell a sad and tragic story ——

Though not of aristocratic origin, Themis has a strong family, which owns a farm on the outskirts of Menfis with many farmers and servants. Her father, Old Jules, was a samurai who taught his son physical arts from an early age, while Themis also loved martial arts and was secretly involved in his brother's teaching. Jules loves this beautiful and vibrant sister, whose physics and martial arts are taught by her brother.

The Ronnie Divine River divides many fan-shaped tributaries at the entrance to the sea, forming a large delta, which is a seasonally submerged land that can be cultivated when the floods retreat. The Jules' farm is on the eastern bank of the Ronnie River, with a small tributary passing, and in order to prevent the land from being temporarily submerged by flooding, they organized a drainage of a dam under the farmhouse, which took decades to complete. The fields can be irrigated all year round, yielding twice as much as nearby farms.

Downstream of this tributary is the family territory owned by Shengyi. He looked at Old Jules' farm and sent someone to buy the land that could be irrigated and cultivated all season. The price was very low. Old Jules refused, of course. Later, he sent someone to find trouble, saying that the upstream dam had soiled the downstream water. This is obviously bullshit, Old Jules ignored it.

Under the pretext of organizing a bunch of rogues, Shengyi often came to the farm to make trouble, trying to keep farmers from cultivating, thus forcing Old Jules to sell the fields at a low price. At that time, Jules was at home, and a group of young and strong children followed him in martial arts practice, and this group of groundskeepers taught him a few harsh lessons. Sheng Yi hates the itchy teeth, nothing can be done for a moment.

Later, Jules and Sung Yi's landmine Dros were recruited to serve in the Ann La Legion. Jules became a squad leader, and the young and strong children of his hometown became his soldiers. On his way into the army, Redross was wounded by John, and he returned to his hometown to feed his wounds, where he lived.

One day Redros walked by the river and saw a beautiful woman working in the fields from afar, when her soul couldn't help itself. Go back and ask, the woman is Jules' wife, her husband is not a mess.

Soon after the nightmare came, Jules died in the sandbox, and the whole family was in immense grief. But for Sung Yi and Redross, it's good news! Sung Yi had long wanted to clean up the old Jules' family, and Redross was encouraging a bad idea.

They hired another bunch of idle groundhounds to mess up the farm and run when they saw someone throw their legs out, repeated it several times. For the last time, these people tried to dig up the dam, and if they did, the Jules' hearts and minds would be destroyed for years. Old Jules was also a samurai, who immediately took up arms and drove away with dozens of farmers and servants, and the nature of the problem was no longer simply a mess.

The scoundrels ran away again and were chased by a thoroughly angry old Jules, who inadvertently entered Shengyi's family territory and ran into Shengyi and Redross' drivers. I don't know who stabbed Shengyi's horse while he had the chance, but somehow there was a mixed war. Immediately afterwards, a large group of armored guards poured in and took down Old Jules and others, sending them all to the city prison.
