I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 8 Burgundy

Tonight's imperial capital is bound to be restless.

Dark clouds covered the night sky, and the stars and the moon could not be seen. The dark night made the fog-shrouded city even more hazy. Only the lights of kerosene street lamps illuminated the streets, swaying in the breeze.

Living on the opposite side of the street, young Aibus looked curiously through the window at the villa on the other side of the street. The two or three meter high wall spread to both sides with the gate as the center.

The surrounding area, including the house where he lives, is the property of the owner of the villa, and his mother works inside the villa as a maid.

The angle of Abs' room is just right enough to see the inside of the wall.

Of course, there is a vast grassland behind the wall, and the real villa is far away from him, but here, he can still vaguely see the banquet in the courtyard.

According to his mother, it was a hundred-day feast for the son of Lord Panacea, and many nobles would be present.

He had just seen it, and he had never seen so many beautiful clothes and gorgeous carriages.

"Tick~"

The rain that had stopped before fell again, and the previous rest seemed to be for the next time.

Bean-sized raindrops fell from the sky, spreading like black blood droplets. In the rain, the existence of a person attracted his attention.

He has a slender body, wearing a black overcoat and a black umbrella, walking slowly on the sidewalk. The umbrella covers his face, which looks so unreal in the hazy fog and darkness.

There were very few people outside in the imperial capital of Britannia late at night, and it was even more strange in this private street of Duke Panacea.

"Dudududu!"

The ear-piercing siren blared, and a group of secret police officers wearing special uniforms and carrying guns on their backs were trotting over in an orderly manner from the other side of the street. It seemed that something had happened.

They passed by the man and ran straight into the villa behind them.

It seemed that no one was found there at all.

Aibus frowned, even at a young age like him, he felt something was wrong at this moment.

But then, when he looked back at the man in black from the secret police, he met his eyes.

He was standing on the opposite side of the street, facing him. The black umbrella was raised slightly, revealing his face covered by the umbrella. It was an East Asian man with short black hair, but under the darkness and mist, his appearance was hazy. .

What impressed him the most was the pair of brown-black eyes, which were still bright even in the dark.

Under Aibus' gaze, the corners of his mouth curled into an imperceptible arc, then he raised his index finger and put it on his lips, making a booing motion.

An unexplained fear suddenly spread to his heart, and he shouted a little excitedly.

"Dad! Daddy!"

Not long after, the door was quickly opened, and a man walked in.

"What's wrong? Abs."

"just."

Aibus turned around, only to find that the man in black had completely disappeared. He just wanted to recall the appearance of that person, but his mind was blank without any details.

"What's wrong?" the man asked softly.

Just as Aibus was about to say something, the movement of silence appeared in his mind.

"It's nothing, I just had a nightmare."

During their communication, on the roof of the house they were in, Shaar stood on the ridge of the roof, holding an umbrella, quietly overlooking the villa not far away.

"The child's spiritual sense is very strong," Calcifer said.

Shaar couldn't deny it either, his eyes drooped, "Although it's just a blindfold that doesn't consume magic power, it does have some talent to see through."

After a pause, he said, "But unfortunately, it was born in the wrong era."

"You can teach him."

Shaar didn't answer, but looked around, not only the policemen, some troops were even rushing here.

In this era, the Marquis is the governor of the frontier and is responsible for guarding the country's gates. Compared with the other four titles among the Duke and Prince, the number of Marquis is the least, so there is no doubt about its importance, and it is mainly because it is suspected that it is an enemy country. There are other purposes.

Before long, the entire imperial capital should be blocked.

And all of this has nothing to do with Xia, anyway, he didn't use his face in the banquet, and this fire couldn't burn him, besides, it wasn't him who took the Marquis of Oss away.

He raised his feet silently, flew a few hundred meters to the north, landed in a more hidden alley, and then stood in front of an old wooden house.

The alley was so narrow that a carriage could barely fit in, and the rainwater flowed down the brick eaves, forming a rain curtain.

This is not the main entrance, but the back entrance. Shaar walked to the carved wooden door of this building that was blackened due to old moisture. The wooden door was locked and could not be opened from the outside.

He waved his hand lightly, and with a click, the wooden door opened towards him, revealing the downward stairs behind, and with Shaar's entry, the door also closed.

This should lead to the basement.

Heilang brought the Marquis of Oss into here just now. He should have studied in the university in the imperial capital, so he naturally lived in the imperial capital.

The basement is supposed to be a place to store potatoes, so the decoration is average, surrounded by stone bricks, it feels like a dungeon.

Since the place where potatoes are stored needs to be dry, the drainage here is good. Even if it is raining outside, it is not very humid here except for the cold.

"Where is my sister!!?"

Hei Lang's suppressed angry roar came from down the stairs.

Shaar walked slowly to the door of the storage room, the dim light of the burning torch became the only lighting in the storage room.

The storage room is not big, there are only two people. Hei Lang, who is wearing a stealth suit, is holding on to the collar of the Marquis of Oss. At this moment, the Marquis has lost his former glory, with a gray face, bruises on his face, and blood at the corners of his mouth. .

Neither of them noticed Char's arrival.

There was not much fear in the eyes of the Duke of Oss, he grinned.

"I remember, you are Heilang Monique, the second son of the Monique family, you go to school in the imperial capital, when I sent someone to look for you, you had already gone to the snowfield.

At the beginning, we should really send some more people to avoid future troubles. "

"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you!" Hei Lang said angrily, "Tell me, where is he!?"

"Do you think I'm the same as those idiots?" The Marquis of Oss grinned and said, "I killed your whole family and told your sister's location, will you keep me?"

Hei Lang suddenly calmed down, he let go of his collar, and walked around the storage room a little anxiously.

The Marquis of Oss calmly tidied up his messy collar, and continued, "I can tell you responsibly, in this world, the only person who knows your sister's whereabouts is me.

I was kidnapped at a big banquet in the imperial capital. This is not a trivial matter. The entire imperial capital will be in turmoil. All the secret police and even the army will be dispatched to search for me.

Your place is not considered hidden, so it is only a matter of time before you are found.

This is not a good thing for you and me, I think we can make a deal. "

Heilang turned his head and watched him quietly, his face was covered under the hood, making it difficult for people to see his expression clearly.

"You hand me over to the people in the imperial capital, and then I will tell you where your sister is."

"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Hei Lang asked back.

"You have no choice." Oss said.

"No, I have a choice."

Heilang turned his head to look at Oss. He kicked the iron bucket placed on the ground on one side, and some dense creaking sounds came from the iron bucket.

"I studied medicine in the imperial capital, so I raised a lot of white mice for dissection."

Helang lifted the iron bucket and placed it at the feet of the Marquis of Oss.

"Centuries ago, there was a criminal law, have you heard of it?"

Helang stared at Oss.

"Put several rats into an iron cage, and there is only one exit in the cage, which is the only way for the rats to escape. The executioner uses the victim's abdomen to block the opening, and then heats the cage.

Regardless of the method, the end result is the same: the hungry rats, heightened by the stimulation of the open flame, can only try to escape by the only way out: they must bite the victim's belly and escape."

Oss lowered his head slowly. In the iron barrel, there were about a dozen mice huddled together, climbing each other, trying to climb out of the iron barrel, but the barrel wall was too smooth, and the claws slid over the barrel wall to produce The squeak, squeak, and fluttering rat tail made his hair stand on end, and his skin crawled.

His face lost the calmness of the past, he swallowed lightly, and said in a trembling voice, "No, no, you won't do this, your sister is still in my hands."

"But you're not going to tell me, are you?" Hei Lang stared at Oss, staring into his eyes, "My time is limited, if you don't tell me, I will kill you and go find my sister myself.

I can guarantee that your death will never be too easy. "

Oss gritted his teeth and stared at him.

Hei Lang didn't say a word, he directly grabbed Oss and pressed him on one side of the platform, let him lie flat, and tied him tightly with ropes so that he couldn't struggle at all.

Seeing his movements, Oss also panicked a little, and he spoke immediately.

"What are you going to do? Wait! We can talk again."

"Where is my sister?" Hei Lang asked.

"she she is"

Seeing Oss's action of obviously delaying time, the anger in Hei Lang's heart was completely ignited. He lifted up his clothes, picked up the iron bucket on one side and directly buckled it on his belly.

Feeling the dozens of mice falling on his belly and making intimate contact with him, the Marquis of Oss' body tensed up at that moment, and his whole body struggled as if his soul had burst, and he let out a piercing cry.

"If you don't take it away, take them away!"

"Tell me!" There was no emotion in Hei Lang's eyes.

"I said, I said!" Oss shouted hoarsely.

Most of the pampered nobles like him have some cleanliness, let alone heating the iron bucket, even contacting these rats is a great mental shock.

Hei Lang tilted the iron bucket and used a skill to move it away from his stomach without the mouse getting out.

Oss panted for a while, looked at Hei Lang with resentful eyes, paused, and spoke slowly.

"Your sister is not in my hands."

Hei Lang frowned, but fortunately, before he got angry, Oss continued to speak.

"A few months ago, I was approached by a group of mysterious people who claimed to be from the Rhine and asked me to help them find some "Burgundian" people"

There was a little interest in the eyes of Xia who had been quietly listening to all this on the side.
