Tange replied: "Boffin, the steward of His Majesty's estate in Dawn Street."
"Bofen?" Meng Qingxiao frowned. This was a very unfamiliar name, and he didn't know many people here. "Where is he now?"
"The yard I just left is the housekeeper's property. I am responsible for cleaning it every day."
"So the king's steward is still a noble?"
"Yes, the king has a total of 6 housekeepers, all of whom are nobles." Tange said matter-of-factly.
"Then what is your identity?" Meng Qingxiao finally asked her question, "I see that you live in a noble house, but you are working as a maid for others."
"I'm really just a maid." Tange said bitterly, "Although I am the king's illegitimate daughter, I don't have any identity."
"As for the house I live in, it was my mother's property. It was given to her by the king when my mother was still alive. The servants there were also given by the king. Their wages were paid by the government, but she did not live there until her death. Spent a day here.”
Meng Qingxiao continued to ask: "There have been rumors that you and your mother froze to death together. What is going on?"
"I didn't die, my mother protected me, but at that time there was news that a killer wanted to kill Tanna and me, so an adult who was handling the matter asked me to fake my death, and then put me Got it here secretly.”
As a spiritual master, Meng Qingxiao was very sure that Tange was not lying, so he deleted the memory fragments about himself in Tange's mind and let her go.
The mosquitoes on Tange's body had been sent to Boffin's house by Xiao Dai in advance.
Through surveillance, Meng Qingxiao discovered that Boffin was a very extraordinary person. Although he was the king's steward, he had a tighter number of guards than the royal manor. His manor was surrounded like an iron barrel.
"Is this guy crazy? He is just a butler. How can he mobilize so many royal guards?" Meng Qingxiao felt incredible.
Is he afraid of death, or is there something valuable in his manor?
Although Meng Qingxiao has not lived a serious life here for a few days, he feels that it is still very safe here. Unless someone is targeting you, for example, like he is targeting Boffin now, no one would dare to cause trouble here.
Anyone who is not a fool can see that the situation in Boffin's family is very abnormal. If he is trying to guard some secret, then it means that there is no silver in this place.
Dai Dai used a drone (mosquito) to patrol around, and finally came to the conclusion: "The defense is very tight. There is no way to sneak in. It seems that you can only force your way in."
"If I go, he didn't know that I was coming, so he waited for me there on purpose?" Meng Qingxiao felt incredible.
"The possibility is very low." Xiao Dai gave a negative answer, "He probably wasn't trying to guard against you."
"Since I'm going to fight, I have to recuperate my energy. I'm in a state of hypoxia for a long time, so brute force is fine, but my brain is not enough."
Meng Qingxiao decided to take action at night.
Xiao Dai also gave advice: "When you act, you can return to your original appearance and then put on a mask. This will allow you to unleash 100% of your strength."
"Well, that makes sense. My current identity really shouldn't be exposed, otherwise I won't be able to hang out here in the future."
As the king's steward, Boffin did enjoy many privileges. His yard was much larger than that of other nobles, and it was a rare three-story compound with one floor above ground and two floors underground.
Limited by the local climate and environment, nobles were proud to live underground, and the higher they went, the more noble they became. For example, the king's study was even built eight floors down, and the king's palace was also three floors underground.
There are no traffic routes on the third underground floor, only some emergency escapes, which are also evacuated to the second floor. Therefore, the third floor is the safest, because the emergency escape cannot be opened from the outside.
Butler Boffin's building has three underground floors, which is technically illegal because only the royal family has this authority. However, because he is the king's steward, this is possible. For some reason we don't know, The king asked him to build a three-story house, or gave him a residential estate with three floors.
Boffin naturally does not dare to live on the third underground floor. The negative 3 floor is his treasure house and the security measures are very strong.
Meng Qingxiao appeared directly at the door of Boffin's house in the evening. The underground floor was guarded by a little cat holding the dimensional bag containing 300 Kunjia warriors to prevent Boffin from escaping from the underground floor, but she would not take the initiative. When attacking, they are only responsible for surveillance. When Boffin wants to escape, he will intervene.
Meng Qingxiao did this to prevent the situation from escalating. He did not want to really start a war. If he was the only one to break in, Boffin would not realize the seriousness of the situation. If he broke in with 300 Kunjia warriors, , Boffin’s first thought was to run away.
Meng Qingxiao is wearing an oxygen mask, and he looks like an alien at first glance, because his appearance has long been famous in this country.
As famous as his appearance is his reputation as a murderer. Although the locals are stupid and can't tell the faces behind these masks, as long as they are wearing masks, they are classified as murderers.
The battle was about to break out. The guards at the door were doing hard work and their force was not strong. Meng Qingxiao basically punched each child and knocked them all to the ground.
He came here to prove his innocence, so he would not kill anyone.
Before entering the courtyard, the siren was already ringing for several blocks. However, at this sensitive moment, there were many people who were wise to protect themselves. The nobles in other courtyards were desperate and just looked at the door, but no one came forward to help.
When Meng Qingxiao hit the yard, there were more than a dozen people surrounding him, and their skills were obviously much stronger than the guards at the door. It was already difficult for Meng Qingxiao to knock down one of them with one punch.
After spending a lot of effort to deal with the second group of people, Meng Qingxiao continued to move forward. At this time, he came to the entrance of the hall on the first floor, and more warriors ran up from the basement.
Meng Qingxiao complained in his heart: "Damn it, did I break into the military camp? How come there are so many warriors in such a small manor?"
Xiao Dai also agreed with him: "I'm afraid it's really a military camp. There are at least 30 masters below and more than 100 intermediate warriors fighting with you. There is a problem with the space here. It is not as small as it seems on the surface. The walls I’m afraid they all use Jingshi.”
"Let me go, this king's butler wants to rebel, I can't fight so many people by myself!"
"Then release those 300 Kunjia warriors. Aren't you raising them just to be useful at this time?"
"Okay, help me contact Xiaomao and ask her to release those Kunjia people."
Now even if he doesn't want to escalate the situation, he can't stand it alone. The warriors here are too powerful. He has no problem fighting one person, but he is really unable to fight a group.
Attacked from both sides, the pressure on Meng Qingxiao was greatly reduced. Regardless of his personal combat power, there were 300 people underground and he was the only one on the ground. As long as Boffin was not stupid, he would know that the main force must be placed underground.
Meng Qingxiao had thought about meeting acquaintances here. After all, when they communicated with the king, dozens of people came to them for discussion. It would not be surprising if one or more of those warriors were here.
However, he never thought that the first acquaintance he met turned out to be Bo Xi. This guy was reinstated by Prince Bo Xi. Meng Qingxiao originally thought he was from Bo Tong, but later found out that he was from Bo Han. But now he actually appears here. This is a major discovery!
"Xiao Dai, it turns out that this is Bohan's secret stronghold!" Meng Qingxiao shouted in his heart, "Oh my god, now I finally know who killed the king. It's really the guy named Bohan."
"Xiao Dai, I admire you so much. You have suspected this guy from the beginning, but I have never paid attention to it. I look at this matter with the prejudice of an earthling. I always feel that if Botong and Boao compete for the throne, then It is a matter of their own family, but Bohan is an outsider. If he also competes for the throne, it will be a change of dynasty, which is a serious crime of treason!"
The nature is different, and the results of doing the same thing are also different. If the state violent institutions kill people, it is called enforcing the law. If ordinary people kill people, it is a crime.
Meng Qingxiao took this matter too lightly, but forgot the most fundamental reality, this is not the earth.
But at this time, Xiao Dai poured cold water on him and reminded him: "Isn't it too early for you to draw conclusions now?"
"Bohan is just highly suspicious, but he may not be the one who killed the king."
"Xiao Dai, have you discovered anything new?"
"There are no new discoveries, just analysis based on every previous inference. There will always be a turning point in this matter. Many times you think you have found the answer, but many times there will be new clues pointing to new targets."
"Then according to what you say, we'll end up going around in circles."
Xiao Dai further analyzed: "First, as the king's steward, how likely do you think he is to agree to Bohan's murder of his master?"
"You have to consider that his current house has a three-story structure, which means that the king had great trust in him during his lifetime. Would the king misjudge a person to this extent?"
"Secondly, you just saw Bosi appearing here and you identified Boffin as Bohan's man. However, Bosi and whose subordinate he is are currently unclear."
"You can't just rely on what Botong said to Boao and conclude that he is Bohan's man. Both Botong and Boao have their own agendas."
"Third, why did Boffin call himself Tanna when he asked Tange to frame you?"
"Is he trying to bring trouble to Tanna? What's the point of doing this?"
"And haven't you noticed that all the royal families in the royal city are choosing sides, except Princess Tanna, who is not bothered."
"The water here is very deep," Xiao Dai continued, "I have a vague feeling that there must be a bigger conspiracy brewing in the imperial city... Well, you fight first."
