Chapter 126 Auction. Prelude Part 2

After breakfast, the search team for Churé de Fendi began to expand. Under the order of the Marquis of Vauban, more people joined the search team. 【This book is published by the author】

After the Baron Jayer sent people out, Dean also asked the lady of Baron Till's family to participate in the search. However, compared to other people who searched like headless chickens, Dean The goal is quite clear.

Of course, in order to 'disguise' the clarity of his goal, Dean used some methods——

"Thanks for the message!"

Dean sincerely thanked the duty captain of the city guard in front of him.

"For some small matters, we have already submitted the report to Lord Marquis together with the body and the report at that time. Presumably Lord Marquis must have made a decision!"

The duty captain of the city guard is a strong middle-aged man, facing the polite Dean, he responded with a smile.

"Thank you again!"

Dean bowed slightly, and left the city guard with his two young subordinates and deputy.

"It's terrible that there is still such a murder in the city of Vauban!"

Ike had an incredulous look on his face, while Silen on the side was a little terrified; obviously, after arriving in Vauban yesterday, the two young people were confused by the prosperity here, and had already forgotten the so-called crisis.

"Where there are people, there will be no darkness and blood - there is Tyre, Vauban, and Emerald City!"

After Dean reminded his young subordinate, he strode towards the murder scene pointed by the other party.

Of course, Dean is definitely not checking here again, or looking for Chuld Defendi in the true sense.

He came here just to find out who was behind that house.

Compared with inquiring for no reason, this kind of inquiring under a certain banner is obviously more reassuring.

"Captain, this is it!"

Ike pointed to the street not far away where Vauban city patrols were stationed.

Obviously, this place is temporarily blocked.

The layers upon layers of people blocked out are the best proof.

but. Possessing the title of head of the local knights, and still responding to the search of the Marquis of Vauban, Dean and his party were naturally let go.

but. The scene was just as described by the duty captain of the City Guards Office.

Even Dean, who was personally involved in it, couldn't have gained more.

However, Dean naturally wouldn't "retire in spite of difficulties" like this——

"Ike, ask the guards, who are the residents around here? They may have more discoveries!"

Dean ordered to one of his subordinate captains.

"Yes, Captain!"

Ike turned around and ran towards the guards stationed.

And Dean pretended to continue to investigate the scene, looking for clues that could not exist-in fact, he had already erased the place where clues might be left.

After a while, Ike ran back.

"Captain. The property here belongs to Mr. Barlow, and this Mr. Barlow is the steward of His Majesty Mader—Mr. Mader is now one of the staff of the Marquis of Vauban, and he is very trusted by the Marquis!"

Ike said clearly.

"A staff member of the Marquis? Then, let's ask the butler!"

Dean said so.

but. Quite naturally, they were turned away—

"Mr. Barlow has made it clear enough that there is nothing more to say. Moreover, he is now at Lord Mader's house. If you have any business, go to Lord Mader!"

A rough face. The guy with a strong body and strong body, after saying this, he slammed the door shut with a 'bang'.

Such behavior undoubtedly made the two young subordinates of the Knights express their indignation.

"How can a butler of his staff be so arrogant?!"

Siren muttered indignantly.

"That is, the Marquis of Vauban is not so domineering!"

Ike also showed his youthful side.

Two young men walked in front. But Dean was a step behind, he cast a questioning look at his deputy——

"There's nothing wrong with that guy, but it's kind of weird!"

Huck knew very well what his regiment leader was asking again, and said immediately.

"Yes. Be alert!"

Dean added.

"That's right, it's just being on guard... as if you're on guard against something!"

Huck suddenly nodded, expressing his approval.

On the other hand, Dean was silent for a while, but there was a bright light in his narrowed eyes.

In fact, the moment the other party opened the door, Dean felt the hairs all over his body stand on end-this feeling is naturally familiar to Dean.

That was the feeling of being locked in by someone strong.

Although the other party has covered it up, Dean, who has undergone thieves training, is very clear about such a lock.

At least one great knight!

Dean finally speculated.

"The big knight... the big fish that appeared by accident!"

Dean sneered silently in his heart.

Obviously, if this was the mansion of the Marquis of Vauban, Dean would naturally not say anything if a great knight appeared, even if it was a silver knight, Dean would not be surprised.

However, this is only the home of a steward who works for the Marquis of Vauban.

In addition, the two knight-level guards who appeared last night, as well as the butler himself is not weak.

Everything seemed to make Dean suspicious.

As for the Lord Mader, who asked the Marquis of Vauban for help, and the Marquis of Vauban sent his men?

Such a thing is impossible!

First of all, in the capacity of the other party, his housekeeper and a lord heir under the Marquis of Vauban had a late-night relationship, which itself was the biggest taboo among nobles.

Secondly, and more importantly, the heir to the lord has disappeared even now.

Such a disappearance is absolutely undeniable.

Therefore, only His Excellency Mader, who is not in a daze, will never confess.

Moreover, everything will be handled calmly—just like now, the death of the other party's housekeeper did not disclose the relationship between Chuld Defendi and him. Also no one knows.

Moreover, he also sent capable subordinates to guard here.

Anyone who comes to inquire, unidentified. Obviously, it will be taken down by that great knight in one go.

Of course, what Dean pays more attention to is the 'ability' that the opponent can assign a great knight.

This is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.

In the entire city of Vauban, apart from the Marquis of Vauban, there seems to be only one person who can do this - the head of the Gaussian spy hidden in Vauban County.

Of course, this is just Dean's guess now.

To confirm this conjecture, Dean needs some means, not complicated ones.

However, that was after the auction of the Marquis of Vauban.

With his lieutenants and young subordinates, Dean was at the fork in the road. Walking towards the upper city, Dean didn't even look at the direction behind him.

Follow that direction until you reach the end, which is the temporary stronghold of the Brotherhood.

Dean knew it all too well.

but. He doesn't think now is the time to be alarmed.

...

"Is that so? Then we should tell the Marquis of Vauban the truth!"

After hearing Dean's honest report, the lady of Baron Till's family nodded.

In fact, the relationship between Tilling and Defendiling is basically well known, and it is not easy to achieve this step.

Even the Marquis of Vauban would say nothing more.

And that's enough.

As for Baron Jenner on the side?

Apparently he also got nothing, though. After seeing that Dean also got nothing, the baron became complacent instead.

No doubt he thought Dean had gotten nothing, and what did it matter that he had gotten nothing?

And neither he nor Dean got anything, proving that the two sides are not very different, or even basically the same!

This is naturally something worthy of his pride.

Dean glanced at the baron of 'scum bag'. Naturally, she couldn't understand the other party's thoughts, and the lady from Baron Till's family on the side didn't even want to look at the baron.

The search continued until after lunch, before the auction began.

The result, of course, is nothing.

but. The auction started as usual.

After all, it is self-evident that everyone knows which is more important, the auction of a marquis or the whereabouts of an heir to a barony.

Because there are items to participate in the auction, Dean appeared as a guest.

Therefore, Huck, who was Dean's deputy, naturally followed behind the baroness lady.

As for the arrangement of the seats, the Marquis of Vauban naturally had his own arrangement, and arranged the three of them together—the seating arrangement of the Marquis of Vauban's auction was not as neat and uniform as imagined. ; but according to the identity and relationship of the guests, they are arranged in a patchwork manner.

It was as if the four leaders of his subordinates sat down to everything like this.

And the merchants are together.

Those distinguished guests from other counties continued to sit together according to the division of places.

As for the auction table?

It is a place located in the middle of the hall, which is built, and the reserved, wide aisle is naturally reserved for the transportation of collections.

When the Marquis of Vauban appeared, all the guests stood up and saluted. The old man responded one by one, and then walked straight to the direction of Dean and his party.

As the county king of Vauban County, the Marquis naturally needs to sit in front of his lord and the lord's heir.

This is a rule and a custom.

"The auction begins!"

After the Marquis of Vauban sat down, the butler of the Marquis of Vauban walked up to the table, and lightly tapped the table in front of him with the gavel in his hand.

In the afternoon, squatting on the top of the building, looking at the clouds and clouds in the sky, feeling the cool autumn wind, and being in the sunshine, the whole person seems to be sublimated—as expected, ice cream should eat cream~~~
