Lord Willett's adjutant was found quickly. Fortunately, as expected, he was only knocked unconscious by a sneak attack, stripped off his clothes and thrown into a dark place. His life was not in danger.
After sending the adjutant to the hospital for treatment, night had fallen and the cleanup work had come to an end.
There is no need to keep an eye on the scene. Those caught need to be taken to the prison for treatment and supervision. The injured sergeant also has to deal with his wounds... There are many and complicated things to do.
Lord Willit left a team of people to make the final touches, and then invited Ann and Leonhardt to return.
It just so happened that An planned to go back to Miku first. The interrogation of the killer cannot be done urgently, and can only be carried out until the other party is conscious. However, out of caution, he suggested to Lord Willett that his team should be kept under joint supervision with the security forces to prevent accidents.
Lord Willett readily accepted this slightly offensive proposal.
He has seen the killer's weird methods. Even if the killer is beaten to the point of disability, no one can say that the other party will have no way to escape!
Even if we don't talk about the killer's own tactics, just looking at the series of disturbing and vicious events that happened in the town during this period is enough for Lord Willit to be extremely vigilant against this group of people.
Lord Willett didn't care about his own face, he wanted to eliminate the possibility of similar things happening again.
Naturally, there would be no more carriages for people to use when returning this time. An, Leonhardt, and Lord Willett, rode horses to the lord's mansion where Miku and others rested. This destination was decided in advance. After being informed, An found out. He originally thought that Yoya would take Miku and the others to a certain hotel.
But think about it, if such a big thing happened in the town and the entrances and exits were blocked, the hotels to the outside world would definitely not be opened again.
Regardless of income, safety cannot be guaranteed.
After comprehensive consideration, the Lord's Mansion became the best choice.
Remember, you still need to be polite.
Ann said: "Lord Willett is so generous."
"After helping you so much, it's natural for you to rest at my house!" Lord Willit said boldly, "Besides, entertaining you well is the duty entrusted to me by the king, so of course I have to do my best!"
After saying that, he laughed, and the tiredness and gloom that had been seen on his face in the morning disappeared.
Lord Willett's style is very easy to make people feel friendly. He has a rough personality but is meticulous in his work. As a lord, he is friendly and gentle to the people. He was very talkative after letting go of his heavy heart. Ann and Leonhardt were also happy to chat with him after the matter had come to an end.
The content of the chat basically revolved around An's fight with the killer just now. Lord Willit seemed to be quite interested in the fighting skills used by An, that is, the fighting skills of the escort team. Considering that he is also a warrior, this is normal.
Lord Willit also knew that the fighting skills of the escorts were never revealed, so he asked very restrained questions. They were all about things that could be seen with the naked eye and were insignificant, so that the conversation could proceed smoothly.
The group of people reached a fork in the road.
Lord Willit pointed out two roads to An and his wife, one leading to the lord's mansion and the other leading to the prison.
After saying that, he pointed to the killer who was tied to the stretcher and said, "Should we take this prisoner to my house for custody?"
Normally, the murderer must have overwhelmed the prison guards, but as the leader of the prisoners, this killer must know far more information than the other accomplices, and his importance is not on the same level. If he escapes, he will miss the mark!
"That's not necessary. With people from the security forces watching over it, everything will be safe."
An was not too worried. He was worried that the other party would commit suicide and keep the secret secret when the situation was bad. Also because of his own emotional problems, he struck hard and gave the killer his last breath. No matter how special the opponent's physique is, it is impossible for him to be able to move again within a day or two.
Moreover, there is a guard team guarding him together, and the team leader who is close to Leonhardt and has extraordinary skills is also among them. There is basically no need to worry about the killer escaping. What needs to be paid attention to is that he does not let him die suddenly due to excessive injuries before receiving treatment—— An Ke hopes to pry something out. Given their current situation, knowing more clues will increase their chances of winning!
There is another more important reason why An does not want to detain the killer to the Lord's Mansion: due to time constraints, the Queen's convoy cannot stay here waiting for the killer to wake up, so An plans to take the killer with her.
He now has a headache over the wording he used to negotiate.
Although the killer's real purpose was to attack the princess's motorcade, the crimes he committed in the town were real! If he puts the opponent under his nose, it will become even more difficult to convince Lord Willit, who is also angry at the killer.
Therefore, it is better to put the killer in jail together with other captured survivors first!
An's answer secretly gave a thumbs up to the security forces, and Lord Willit was very pleased with it. With his trust in An, he did not raise any further objections.
So the people were divided into two teams, and they were sent to the lord's mansion, while the other team escorted the captured prisoners to the prison.
Mentioning the killer's treatment reminded Lord Willit of the cases of the past few days, and his mood dropped.
Not long after the team separated, he blamed himself: "It's really embarrassing to say that there are so many people with ulterior motives running into the town, and as a lord, I didn't notice anything!"
Leonhardt consoled him: "After all, this is the town closest to the royal capital. There are merchants, officials, entertainers... there are so many people coming and going, it is impossible for you to find out their identities one by one."
The words of comfort he used were humane, but for a responsible person, this was obviously not enough.
"To tell you the truth, the reason why I have so many garrison troops is because this place is closest to the royal capital and has a strict population review system. People with unclear origins and incomplete procedures are absolutely not allowed to pass here." Wei Li The special lord raised his head and shook his head, "But even so, so many people with ulterior motives got involved. It is really my fault. If it weren't for the help of the two of you, it is really unimaginable how far the situation would have expanded!"
"Lord Willett does not need to blame himself. The prisoner's plan certainly did not happen in a day or two. It must have taken a long time for so many of them to gather here. If they came under different names, it would not be possible. Go against the strictest exit inspection to the royal capital, and with the flow of people here, it is inevitable that you will not be caught."
Lord An Weiwei Lit analyzed.
"Judging from their ambush methods, since they want to ensure that they are not discovered, they must have taken ownership of the buildings around the lane. Do you have any clues about this?"
"If it's nearby..." Lord Willett, whose attention was diverted by An, thought for a moment and came up with the answer, "Except for a few residents, most of the rest of the places are warehouses used by the chamber of commerce. The ones that collapsed belonged to three medium-sized There are several chambers of commerce, one specializing in fireworks, one specializing in firewood, rice, oil and salt, and one selling daily necessities..."
"You actually remember it so clearly?" Ann and Leonhardt looked surprised.
"In addition to handling government affairs, I will also visit administrative agencies in my free time. These companies happened to be registered when I was there, so I remember them clearly." Lord Willit smiled modestly.
"Then your memory is really extraordinary!" Leonhardt praised.
"Haha, this is one of the benefits of regular physical exercise!" Lord Willit smiled quite proudly.
