Chapter 43: Jelink's inquiry

The corridor of Yagetilin's house runs through the garden in the courtyard.

The stone pillars along the corridor are carved with shells and mermaid

patterns, which are clearly visible in the bright moonlight.

After left the party hall with the housekeeper, the surrounding environment

became quieter, only occasional noise and music from the banquet in the

distance could be heard.

This young housekeeper walked in front, holding a black iron lantern in his

hand, and the orange light was shining on the road under his feet. His face

was in the shadow of the light, varying in brightness.

"It's the first time Miss Lacey has come to Yagertilin's house. Actually,

Master Angus used to come here for a short stay, so you don't have to be too

restrictive.

"Well, it's the first time I'm here, I should be familiar with it in the

future."

The girl looked at the bright full moon in the sky, and occasionally scanned

the gradually quiet and dark courtyard, and asked.

"Is Jelink Daren's study far from here?"

"It's just around the corner ahead. Master likes to work in a quieter place.

I'm sorry to invite you so late."

He explained naturally, but the pace did not stop.

Lorrain Hill looked at the back of the housekeeper, sighed, and then continued

to follow.

咚咚—

The door of the dark red lacquered wood was knocked, and the stray light of

the room could be seen from the crack of the door.

"Please come in."

squeak —

As the door opened, a middle-aged man could be seen sitting at his desk. A

small table and sofa were temporarily set up in the room. On the small table

was a small night light, as well as snacks and fruits. There are also a few

candle lights on the walls of the room to illuminate the light in the room.

"Miss Lacie, please sit down."

Jelink stood up from his seat and invited Lorrain Hill to sit on the sofa at

the small table, and then he sat on the opposite sofa.

After , the butler Owen brought two more drinks on the small table, then

stepped back and left the room, closing the door.

"Miss Lacey, it may be a little strange to call it this way, I would prefer to

call Lacey niece, because Angus and I have been good friends for many years,

just like brothers."

"It doesn't matter, you are a good friend of your father, so it doesn't matter

if you call me like this." Lorrain Hill, who is Lexi, held the drink in his

hand and replied.

"I am very sad about your father's sudden death, and I have many questions."

"I know this is presumptuous, but as a friend of his life, I really want to

know the process of the attack at that time."

"It doesn't matter if you ask."

"Where was Lacey's niece attacked?"

"It was on the road from the west wind to Wilga..." Then Lorrain Hill restored

the process of the attack based on what he saw at the time.

"So, before my father died, did he transfer all his property to you?"

"Yes it is."

"Are there anyone else present?"

"The butler Serres and the chief maid Chelsea are also present." The girl

looked at the reddish cider in her hand and answered without hurriedness.

"In this way, Chelsea are also here..." The middle-aged man's expression

seemed a little sigh and sigh.

"Uncle Jerink, you seem to have a lot of puzzles."

Jelink picked up the fruit wine in front of him, took a sip, and said.

"Yeah, I don't understand, Chelsea also betrayed Angus." After speaking, the

glass in his hand fell, and it smashed to pieces.

The door of the room was violently opened, and dozens of guards wearing robes

and locks rushed in. They held long spears and crossbows to surround Lorrain

Hill.

More than a dozen sharp spears were aimed at the girl in the blue skirt. The

blades of the guns reflected the cold light under the candlelight, while the

six crossbowmen stood behind Jellink, raised their crossbows and aimed them at

the girl with dreamy appearance. On the black matte crossbow, a faint magic

appears but does not attract it.

These spearmen are all War Sequence 2·Spike Guards, and those crossbowmen are

also War Sequence 2·Black Crossbow guards. It seems that the Yagertylin family

is not small and can summon more than a dozen Sequence 2's at once. Escort.

Lorraine Hill did not panic, but raised his head and looked at the nominal

uncle in front of him, as if asking, why?

"I advise you not to resist, this will save your life, and don't expect that

the rider outside the courtyard gate will rush in to save you. Someone will

take care of it."

Jelink put his hands on the armrests and stared at the blond girl in blue

skirt.

Seeing Lorrainhill was silent, he continued to speak.

"Angus and I have known each other for more than ten years. We went to the

South China Sea Islands to take an adventure. Several times we escaped from

the dead. He saved me many times and we regarded each other as brothers."

"I can't tolerate that someone murdered him and usurped his many years of

property in the name of his daughter." He said word by word.

"Why do you think I am not his daughter?"

"Indeed, Angus protects her daughter very well. She has been living in the

West Wind. No one in Wilga has seen her look."

"Unfortunately, I am an exception. When I went to Xifeng to do business many

years ago, I was fortunate enough to be invited by him to my home and met her

daughter."

"Maybe you don't have such a beautiful face, but she is also a cute little

girl. She is different from yours."

"And Angus called her, Elaine, not Lacey." There was a certain indignation in

Jerlink's voice.

"Mr. Jerink, you and Angus are true friends."

"You should be very clear. Many guests have seen me tonight. If I were

imprisoned here, it would not take three days for this matter to spread

throughout Verga."

"The Jagertylins have betrayed their friends for many years and murdered the

orphan of the Callites. This matter will soon spread to the towns, chambers of

commerce and people in Wilga."

"Yes, so what. I will report this matter to the court of the Vilga Alliance

and accuse you of the crime."

Lorrain Hill sips the fruit wine, his cheeks are slightly red, and he is not

scared by Jellink.

"Mr. Jelink is right, UU reading www.uukānshu.com, I am indeed not Angus's

daughter." As the words fell, the surrounding guards began to grip their

spears.

The girl sighed in her heart, she was really not suitable for lying, she was

exposed in just a few days.

"But it is not a deception that Angus transferred the Chamber of Commerce to

me." Lorrainhill put the empty wine glass on the table and made a slight

noise.

"How is it possible?" Jelink was full of disbelief.

"How can it be impossible?" the girl asked rhetorically.

At this time, there was a sound of fighting outside the door, and the metal

trembling of swords clashing from time to time.

"Jerlink, you idiot, hurry up and open the door!" Chelsea eagerly shouted

outside the door.

Jelink stared at the girl, still unmoved.

"Jerlink, you slept with Millie and Corna in the bar back then. You didn't

have a penny on you, so you still asked me to borrow money. If you don't open

the door, I will explode you and Tess."

The expression of the guard in the room became a little subtle, while

Jerlink's face turned dark. It was all old things, she actually remembered it

so clearly.

A guard next to asked for instructions with a wink. "My lord, how about we

open the door and see what's going on."

Jelink waved his hand and gestured to open the door reluctantly.

The door was opened again. Chelsea, Serres, and several Carrites riders were

fighting fiercely with the Yagertylin's guards. Fortunately, both sides

restrained and there were no casualties.

"The door has finally opened, Jerlink, I didn't expect that after so many

years, you are still so timid, you have to call so many people to deal with a

girl."

Chelsea put away the rapier in his hand, pushed aside the spear, and stood

beside Lorrain Hill.

"Sorry, Miss, I'm late."
