Chapter 20: Arrest people
when they get closer.
Only then did everyone see clearly the appearance of one person and one skeleton.
Wu Heng was fine, just a little disgraced, and the skeleton wearing a round helmet next to him had five or six crossbow bolts stuck on the breastplate, all of which penetrated the body.
In addition, there was a bloody corpse on his shoulders.
This made everyone a little confused.
The crazy crowd used detonators, but no crossbows were seen.
If they can even use a crossbow, then none of them can escape.
"Wu Heng, where have you gone?" Kavina asked immediately.
"I hid in the village for a while and came out after seeing nothing happened outside." Wu Heng replied.
"As long as it's okay." Altluk nodded and said, his eyes falling on the corpse carried on the shoulders of the skeleton warrior, "Who is carrying this?"
"Put it down."
The skeleton threw the corpse on the ground, Wu Heng Just peel off the covering face towel.
The other people looked at the corpse and frowned.
"Achido's butler." Wu Heng directly revealed the other party's identity.
With this reminder, everyone's eyes widened instantly, full of surprise and disbelief.
I just said that there is no direct evidence to suspect Achido.
Now, Wu Heng came back carrying the other party's butler.
"What's going on? Tell me in detail!" Altluk continued to ask.
"After we were scattered, I ran away to the west and accidentally saw a group of people coming out of the ore behind..."
Then, he told what he saw last night.
From seeing the sneaky team, what the other party was holding, and how they wanted to kill me, but they were killed by me.
However, his way of counterattack was to rely on Poison Smoke Thunder and Skeleton Basson to conceal the matter of the skeleton group.
"You mean, they took something from the mine in the back mountain?" Plamon walked over.
"Yes, we all lured the crowd away, and they took something away."
In an instant, everyone's expressions turned ugly.
Plamon's eyes also revealed murderous intent.
This 'Achido' is the first to treat the investigation team like a monkey.
"Cut off the head of the corpse," Plamon said.
The guard stepped forward, chopped off the body with a knife, and wrapped it in a leather bag.
"Let's go back."
"They should have left the horses nearby. It will be faster if we find the horses."
All the horses of the investigation team were killed last night.
Going back on foot would waste more time, and Achido might arrange for someone to intercept him then.
"Okay, spread out and look around." Plamon continued to order.
The team dispersed and searched nearby, and sure enough they found the horses tied in the woods.
The horses were some distance away from the village and were not disturbed.
Everyone rode horses and headed directly to the station.
After arriving at the station, he did not leave directly.
Plamon directly mobilized the garrison troops and went back to the manor of 'Achido' to arrest people.
...
The team arrived at the manor in a mighty manner.
The defense of the manor was incomparable to that of the city. The wrought iron gate was hollow and thin and could not defend against the army's attack.
"Sir, I'm afraid this is against the rules. If you want to arrest someone, you need approval from the city hall." The guard stood behind the door and said.
After last night's battle, Plamon obviously didn't have much patience to talk nonsense with him. He kicked open the iron door with a bang and shouted: "All those armed with weapons will be executed on the spot for treason."
Swish, swish! !
The moment the order was given, the bows and crossbows were already loaded with arrows, pointing forward.
Those manor guards who still wanted to come forward and say a few words froze in place and did not dare to make any more moves.
Then carefully throw away the weapon in your hand to avoid being shot into a sieve. .
The charges of treason have come out, and obviously there is something big involved.
The manor guards threw away their weapons, and the guards quickly stepped forward to control them.
Plamon waved again and continued walking towards the central building.
When I reached the door, the door of the mansion was already open.
The owner of the mine, 'Achido', came out, holding something wrapped in yellowing rags in his arms. Between the gaps in the cloth, you could see a clay pot covered with patterns.
Plamon glanced sideways at Wu Heng, who nodded slightly, proving that this was what he saw last night.
At the same time, in Wu Heng's sight, the object in his arms exuded the slightest aura of death.
"Achido, do you know why we came?" Plamon's voice was cold and filled with murderous intent.
"I know that I am willing to go with you, but please don't hurt other people here." Achido said.
Ah!
Plamon sneered, "Now that I'm talking about this, who are the villagers you killed?"
The guards stepped forward and controlled Achido and a few people around him.
Plamon handed the pottery pot emitting death energy to Wu Heng, "Watch it, don't let it cause problems."
Groove! !
Wu Heng cursed secretly in his heart, put the things into the arms of Skeleton Bassen, and followed the team to escort 'Achido' and others away.
...
on the return train.
The guards and the professional team once again distanced themselves.
Skeleton Basson stood at the end of the carriage, holding the clay pot in his arms.
Wu Heng and others sat on the other side, keeping a certain distance.
"Captain, tell me about the Professionals Association!" Wu Heng asked.
I just joined and I really don’t know much about this organization.
The reason for joining at that time also had a legitimate identity.
"Well, let me tell you about the internal structure of the association first." Captain Altluk continued: "The Professionals Association is the collective name of the organization. It is not just a team like us that performs tasks. It has more detailed internal divisions. ."
"Those like us who are stationed in various branches are called 'field envoys' who mainly perform tasks and assist members of the rescue association. In addition, there are also different ones such as 'Hongwen Society', 'Hunters', 'Secret Whisperers' and so on. Branch."
"The main members of the Hongwen Society are formed by scholars and professionals with a strong thirst for knowledge." "
Hunters represent exploration and adventure, and are mostly rangers and thieves."
"Then there are the Whisperers. They are good at collecting all kinds of intelligence. Old affairs of the kingdom, love stories of nobles or some secrets spread among the people are all the targets they collect."
Wu Heng listened and understood the meaning of these organizations.
The professional association is like a school. Everyone is a student of this school, but there are different clubs within it.
Some people like to study knowledge, so join the Hongwen Society, some people like adventure, so join the Hunters, and if you like to collect gossip, then join the Whisperers.
But no matter how you divide it internally, you are still a member of the Professional Association.
This mechanism is quite perfect.
Kavina also spoke at this time: "Don't get too close to the people of the Whisperer. It's very troublesome to arouse their curiosity. You don't want your secrets to be kept in the database." Damn it
. !
When I say this, I instantly feel as if my information has been exposed and the world is being destroyed.
"Um, are there members of the Secret Whisperers in Blackstone Town?" Wu Heng asked.
"Yes, Mrs. Slater from Money Cat."
