Speaking of which, these three men are pretty good at acting.
But the panic on their faces clearly gave them away.
Being so nervous doesn't seem like someone going to receive a reward.
Fortunately, the man in black didn't seem to pay attention to this, and just asked them coldly: "Are you sure you didn't kill the wrong person?"
The three men nodded in unison.
"Definitely not. Those two people were the only ones out of the city at night. How could we kill the wrong people?"
"Yes, and of those two people, one is scarred and the other is highly skilled in martial arts. Are we right?"
"We killed both of them and buried them quietly, including our brothers who were only on that road. We also cleaned up the corpses at the city gate. You must have taken care of them yourself before dawn. ?」
"..."
Hearing the three people say this, the man in black's eyes flashed with pride, "Very good."
"What about the rest of our reward?"
One of them asked impatiently.
Thinking about it, although they committed a serious crime, they were only ordered by others.
Right now, the three of them are helping the prince and princess to lure out the people behind them. No matter what happens, the princess won't kill them, right?
As long as I can live, I still have the opportunity to spend the reward money...
Thinking of this, the three people finally had a smile on their faces.
And the man in black really put his hand into his arms.
"Don't worry, I won't give you any less points..."
The three of them looked expectant.
But he never thought that the moment the man took out his hand, two darts shot directly into the foreheads of two of the men...
Before they could react, the two men fell down in shock.
The other man panicked and his first reaction was to shout for help.
But before he could speak, another dart pierced his neck. In a moment, all three of them died...
Everyone on the roof was shocked.
Obviously, he didn't expect that that person would actually do something like silence...
Du Tingyun seemed to want to make a move, but Liu Shengsheng gently grabbed his clothes and shook her head at him.
Du Tingyun's face was serious: "This person is cruel and ruthless. He is definitely not a kind person. He must be eradicated!"
"You also said that you want to eradicate the weeds, so you have to follow the clues and see what kind of force is behind it?"
Liu Shengsheng said softly.
Du Tingyun's face was gloomy, "The killers of the world are at home in all corners of the world after all..."
"Why did the charlatan killer assassinate my Yichen for no reason? And he also did things like silence. If he didn't know that the person behind Yichen was me, there would be no need to do such a cruel thing, right? Brother, if you think about it seriously, you can think of it These, aren’t they?”
As soon as Liu Shengsheng finished speaking, Nan Muze next to him whispered: "He left."
After saying this, Nan Muze took Liu Shengsheng in his arms and followed him with a Qinggong skill.
Du Tingyun waved his hand at the surrounding secret guards, and those few secret guards followed him.
And Du Tingyun finally thought about Liu Shengsheng's words.
Speaking of which, what she said did make some sense.
After all, if we weren't worried about the forces behind Yichen, there would be no need to deal with those who assassinated Yichen. Read the book
This is obviously destroying evidence of crime...
Could it be said that those people were really sent by the City Lord's Palace?
But why?
Liu Shengsheng and the others had never been to Liguo, and it was impossible for them to have any grudges with the city lord here.
Why did the city lord send someone to assassinate Yichen when there was no grudge?
Du Tingyun thought of that Ayong.
Could it be that it was A Yong who was captured by the city lord, and Yichen came to the city lord's mansion to rescue A Yong...
But even so, the City Lord's Mansion can still send people openly and honestly.
There is no need to send charlatans to kill people, right?
And now the killer has been silenced...
This has to make people doubt the intentions behind it.
No wonder Liu Shengsheng wanted to find out.
Just as Du Tingyun was thinking wildly, Liu Shengsheng and Nan Muze had already disappeared following the man in black.
Fortunately, the secret guards were leading the way. Following the steps of the secret guards, Du Tingyun finally caught up with Liu Shengsheng.
But what he didn't expect was that the man in black actually returned to the City Lord's Mansion...
Although he had already guessed a few things, Du Tingyun still felt his face hurt when he saw it with his own eyes.
Thinking about the fact that before he came out, he had always emphasized that he could not be someone sent by the city lord, but now that he was really the city lord, he didn't know what to say...
Bai Cang, who had been following him, also said with some embarrassment: "Maybe the city lord we returned to the city didn't even know that Yichen was the princess's son..."
His voice was very low, and after he finished speaking, the people around him ignored him.
Even Du Tingyun was quiet.
The four of them squatted on a roof together, while several secret guards were scattered around, but they all stopped.
After all, the man in black had already taken off the gauze on his face.
Just when he went back to his house to change clothes, the city lord returned to the city and came to the door.
"How? Are all those people silenced?"
The man who had changed his clothes had a long beard. As soon as he went out, he said proudly: "Don't worry, City Lord, no one is left behind."
Du Tingyun's brows instantly knitted together.
It's hard to tell how ugly Bai Cang's expression was.
At this moment, they are not in a hurry to catch those two people...
Then I heard the bearded man say gloomily: "If the prince and the others hadn't led more than 20,000 soldiers and were near that big river, we would have searched all the way along that road and then taken the bodies of those two people. bring back……
There were really too many more than 20,000 soldiers, almost all over the mountains and plains. In order to avoid being discovered by them, we had to give up the search along the road. "
After a pause, the bearded man continued: "But of those we sent out, only three of them came back, and according to those three, those two are indeed dead...
Now, with the death of those three people, there is no evidence of death. Even if the real princess behind finds that her person is dead, she will never guess who we are. After all, the people we sent are all people from the world. The city lord can Don’t worry! "
After hearing what the bearded man said, the city lord was obviously a little proud.
"Oh, why am I worried about this city lord? This city lord has never taken that real princess seriously. So what if she knew that the person was killed by my city lord? Without evidence, can she still take action against my city lord? "
The bearded man chuckled and said flatteringly: "Yes, even if she is a real princess, without real power, she is nothing to be afraid of..."
"So what if she has real power? I am not afraid of her at all. The reason why I want to destroy the body and eliminate traces is just because I am afraid of trouble."
The city lord said proudly and walked out happily, "Since there is nothing else, let the servants cook more food. I want to get drunk tonight."
"yes……"
