Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Chapter 351 Dead, but not completely dead

Rare props, hidden relationships, and the current version’s gold content is frighteningly high. There are two versions, guild and individual. The “Hidden Mission Clearance Ranking” has an increasing weight in various third-party intelligence analysis ranking organizations...

If the main mission that everyone shares is the staple food, and the reward mission that often appears is the meat, then the unique and difficult hidden mission is the peerless delicacy that every big guild cannot refuse.

Whether it's for the obvious gains, the secret benefits, or I want it all as a child making choices, the guilds that successfully triggered the hidden mission took this matter very seriously and immediately organized manpower to start pushing forward.

For those inexperienced novices, even if they can use their little brains to successfully find a few pieces of information that are both true and false from ordinary things, they still do not have enough imagination and judgment to extract real and useful clues. .

But for these professionals who are sent by countries around the world to plan game confrontations in the game, even if they are just here for the first time and have no foundation at all here, based on personal experience, it is not dangerous or difficult to want to know something. Digging up trade secrets is easy.

So the people who investigated the grain discovered that there were several guys in the city who appeared to be businessmen, but secretly had been raising bandits and using them as guns outside the city.

In addition to daily suppressing colleagues and monopolizing the industry, they recently sent their bandits to quietly approach the Hessen Territory, raid the villages at night, snatch away their relief grains, distribute them for free in remote areas, and use them to increase their reputation and Zhengqi. Sell ​​your own goods.

"Don't eat the sour radish! Usually we are the ones robbing people, but now they are robbing us. Beat up the horse!"

Those who investigated the club found that... firstly, the business scope of this club was as extensive as they had guessed, and secondly, its actual controller turned out to be a knight under the name of the third young master of the Jueqiao family.

And they also accidentally discovered that in addition to the daily high-end service consumption by celebrities from all walks of life in the city, the knight would also respectfully accompany a mysterious guest to enjoy it from time to time.

"...Team leader, I want to apply for a work-related injury, but if that doesn't work, you can replace me with that London boy. He should like to see this."

As for those who investigated the Deep Forest people, they found that there was more than just this one. Winster, a large multinational grain merchant, maintained a very close relationship with many Deep Forest people.

If that's all, it's okay. After all, as a businessman, if he's ready to hang himself, he might be able to collect a ticket fee.

But in recent times, they have been meeting more and more frequently, and their meetings have become longer and longer, and they seem to be intensively planning something in private.

"I feel like it might be more than that. Everyone should think more about it, otherwise the official wouldn't release a hidden mission."

For players, although this information is interesting and somewhat valuable, it is not very important.

At least he wouldn't make his private investigation public for such a thing.

But for Ji Ming, who was already suspicious and knew all the information, they were like pieces of a puzzle. As long as they were put together, he could deduce who assassinated Eleanor.

For example, the profiteers who sent bandits to steal grain seemed to have nothing to do with each other, but secretly they all had correspondence with Winster.

For example, thinking of the close relationship between Master Crowe and Winston, the extremely mysterious guest in the club probably couldn't think of any other possibility besides the former.

For example, for those deep forest people, Ji Ming issued another hidden mission requiring the investigation of suspicious people around Winster.

Just now, he successfully used the intersection of the two pieces of information to catch the assassin's tail.

Therefore, although this jigsaw puzzle has not been collected in place and there are still many pieces left, Ji Ming can already see which iron-born person they point to.

"So the E after the four major grain merchants in ABCD is here, right, Winster Elaine!?"

So, whether it is to calm down the storm in the city or to help the people in the south get rid of this scourge, the next thing to do is to wait for the most suitable time...

That afternoon, the public opinion that had been fermenting for several hours was almost going crazy.

Some influential celebrities in the city began to use the banner of "Don't chill the hero" to put pressure on Duke Jueqiao and ask him to provide detailed information about the current situation of the princess.

In fact, just looking at it this way is quite touching. Even though Marquis Changge has been dead for so many years, there are still people who are thinking about him, willing to take risks to stand up for him, and care about the life and death of an orphaned hero.

——If the biggest guide among them is not Winster himself.

And the major newspapers in the city also began to support these celebrities from the side, asking the Duke's Palace to explain all this publicly, so as not to chill the people of Jueqiaoguan and even Quanhuiguang!
Likewise, it is not their conscience that drives them to do such "just" acts, but...

"Oh, I'm not begging you. Can you clarify what the situation is? You must be held responsible for errors in the report!"

The direction of the wind blowing back and forth is a source of fun to others. Even if it changes three times a day, it doesn't matter. It's just fun anyway.

Even if you say it to death, you are only one person, and boomerangs and other things can't hurt your face, but this is not the case for newspapers and magazines.

In the morning, your family said, "According to relevant sources, the princess is critically ill due to an unknown illness, and an emergency report has been sent to the royal capital."

At noon, his family said, "According to reliable information, the princess is in good health and is currently resting in bed at home."

But when the sun sets, the citizens of the city took out other newspapers and took a look, and found that the princess had given up treatment, and everyone started writing suicide notes! ?
-
Come on, come on, guys, please come over and explain to everyone, which one is lying? Those who lie will be beaten to death on the spot!
So no matter how much they like to talk nonsense, no matter how charming they are, as a public news media, they cannot talk nonsense on such a big matter.

If this continues, even if they can enjoy the popularity, the credibility of their newspaper will be lost. How can they... let others believe in them in the future?
So they talked to each other privately and decided to join forces to put pressure on the Duke's Palace. They must ask clearly about the princess. I couldn't stand it any longer! Therefore, it may be because the pressure of public opinion in the city is too heavy, or it may be because after hearing about this incident, even other lords in the surrounding fiefdoms wrote anxiously to inquire. Duke Jueqiao, who was being roasted on the fire, had no choice but to At four o'clock in the afternoon a new Lord's Order was sent.

——At six o'clock tonight, Princess Eleanor will give a speech in the square in front of the Duke's Palace, welcoming all citizens to come and listen to the Holy Word.

"Good good!"

The citizens of the city were overjoyed, celebrating their success in exerting pressure and actually making the dignified noble lord bow his head and give in. This was our victory!
The powerful merchants were wondering whether the princess was dead? Still not dead? Or half dead? Did he want to dispel rumors that he was not dead? Or do you want to put a coffin there to show that you are dead?

Others focused on the last word, wondering why the princess chose to give a speech, and why she chose to give her speech now?
In short, regardless of whether there is something or not, whether it is tenable or not, in short, the overwhelming doubts break through all anxiety and hover in the sky above the cliff.

Under such a situation, naturally some people tried to inquire through various channels, some took risks for the sake of high commissions, and some were even bold enough to want to break into the guest house directly and witness the truth of the matter with their own eyes.

But the result was that those who were looking for connections couldn't find it, and those who wanted to investigate couldn't find it. The one who had the audacity to break into the guesthouse was arrested by tight security, and was shot dead on the spot without saying a word. There was only a body covered with blood with one after another penetrated. The injured were dragged out and thrown into a mass grave.

Fortunately, the speech will start at six o'clock in the evening, so the more than an hour in between is not difficult.

In other words, what they should really be concerned about now is whether they can squeeze into the Duke's Square, which has turned into a sardine can, and see with their own eyes what is bound to be an extremely exciting show.

Amid the increasingly lively crowds, the time soon came to nearly six o'clock, and the crowd in the square fell silent in unison, quietly waiting for the big event to happen.

But at this moment, a large group of people dressed in white suddenly appeared around the square. They walked in sharp steps, uniformly, and were of high rank. They were obviously not ordinary passers-by.

After a brief commotion, the people were surprised to find that these white-clothed monks were none other than the Holy Light monks in the city! Each of them was fully armed, solemnly as if they were preparing to participate in a celebration of the gods.

As an important town in the south of the kingdom, Jueqiaoguan naturally has a Holy Light Church. Under the order of Archbishop Tenis and the full cooperation of Duke Jueqiao, the Holy Light monks temporarily replaced the guards of the Duke's Palace and took full responsibility for this time. Security work for the speech,

Therefore, the Duke's guards in the square did not panic when they saw this, but took the initiative to negotiate, and then all left as a matter of course, leaving the entire square to their protection.

Seeing this scene, the countless pairs of eyes that were staring at this place suddenly became suspicious, and many even had bad thoughts.

You must understand that if you provoke Duke Jueqiao, you will most likely leave Jueqiao Pass. As a lone minister, no matter how great his power and influence are, he will not be able to leave the southern border of the kingdom. If you are lucky enough to escape to the eastern border, maybe the master there will be able to do it if he is happy. Give you a reward.

But if you provoke the Church of Holy Light... Even if you escape the entire Kingdom of Glow, you may not be able to ensure safety. As an ancient church organization that cherishes feathers, their influence is too far-reaching. Who knows if your neighbor will be... A believer in the Holy Light.

"You still have to be cautious and don't alert the snake..."

And in the darkness of the sun gradually setting, hundreds of Holy Light monks worked together, and the bright light made the square that had been sunk in darkness become as bright as day. The sound of horse hooves kicking and beating was heard at the end of the road that had been reserved in advance. The sound of wheels rolling.

A luxurious carriage gradually appeared under the holy light covering the entire audience, with the emblem representing the Glorious Royal Family shining brightly on it. It slowly arrived under the high platform as the city residents watched.

Everyone present held their breath, silently wondering in their hearts whether it would be the princess herself or someone else who stepped off the carriage. Would she simply show her face and leave directly, or would she really give a speech to gain popularity for herself?

It's a pity that the princess didn't want to betray this at all. The next moment she jumped down from the carriage lightly. While walking towards the high platform with steady steps, she also smiled and waved to the crowd around her.

die?
Die!
sick?
Sick ass!
The people's hearts were suddenly filled with turmoil.

——I know that those bullshit newspapers cannot be believed. Could this be someone with a physical problem?

——You can walk up the anti-human-designed steps at the entrance of the Duke's Palace quickly with a bang. You are in good health and have nothing wrong at all!
This time, the onlookers were really disappointed. Such a concise and clear revelation of the mystery even made them a little disillusioned. Their brains were so overloaded that the princess even stood behind the podium, and the entire square was still silent.

"what?"

Eleanor, who had played the leading role for several days in accordance with Ji Ming's script, was mentally prepared for all possible encounters, but when she saw that the people around her looked like they had seen a ghost, they looked at her without any reaction. My heart went cold as I moved forward alone.

Is it that the reputation of the nobles in the royal capital is too bad here, or that their life-and-death struggle during this period has exhausted their last bit of patience, or... is there something wrong with the design and arrangement of the Divine Selection?

However, most people re-adjusted their mentality after a short period of failure. After all, compared with other royal children, Princess Eleanor's reputation is that of a giant emerging from the den of dwarfs.

Compared with the people in other areas, they who have lived on the border of the kingdom all year round have seen too many chaotic things, so they clearly understand the principle of good people teaching good treasures and bad people raising bad seeds.

Let’s not talk about the distance, just think about Jueqiao Pass and Sunshine City. If it weren’t for the fact that all the heads of the Duke family are somewhat decent, and there are some ZTE masters from time to time, Jue Qiao Pass and Sunshine City can be different. What's the difference...I can't say!
Moreover, in order to keep up with the popularity these days, the printing shops in the city did not dare to rest at all. They learned many stories about the princess's previous stay in the capital and the Changsong Legion, which was a temporary supplement. gained some knowledge.

Now that the hero has passed away, wouldn't it be a pity if such a good person died too? We can't really let a bunch of insects squirm and chirp in the palace. Everyone is still looking forward to whether she can strike hard and use the blood of the Changge family to reverse the corrupt atmosphere in the kingdom's top brass.

Only when you have lost can you cherish it, so with a "Okay!" the people who decided to vote by action suddenly burst into overwhelming cheers. Before the princess had time to speak, she had already reached the level of other "brothers and sisters". Spending money on extras may not necessarily bring you the best program results.

Now it was Eleanor's turn to be stunned.

No, can it really be reversed?
