Durin's Diary

Chapter 358 The Door of Despair
By dinner time, Du Lin had obtained more information.

First of all, the carriage that Kelar Walter and Sandor Walter were riding in was indeed hit by a cannon.

Secondly, the first car in the convoy should have been led by the secret police or special guard department, but the two felt that they were close to home, so when they turned around at Sword Avenue, their car was in the front.

So their car was hit by three shells - all the people nearby and the survivors among the guards heard three gunshots.

Judging from the scene, the first shot was a grenade that hit the driver's seat directly.

The second shrapnel shell exploded in the air, and most of the guards were killed by these steel balls and fragments.

The third shot was also a grenade, finishing it off.

The assassins were lying in ambush on the second floor of a cafe on a protruding corner of the street. They claimed that they had bought the cafe from the original owner. In the name of decoration, they opened a huge long window on the wall in the direction of the convoy, and then installed cannons on the second floor - they even found a magician to reinforce the walls and floors, and integrated and reinforced the pillars on the first floor.

The original boss is now nowhere to be found. It is said that someone saw him leaving, but considering the murderer is extremely vicious, the boss is likely to have been killed, and the person seen later is likely a fake created to confuse the enemy.

As for the two kings, they could not be found at all.

Now the kingdoms are frantically condemning the assassins.

The Eastern Elf Territory was being questioned by various countries, and perhaps it was annoyed. Just now, the Ring of Truth went all out and directly announced the shipping list of a certain warehouse that could not be disclosed.

Everyone then realized that it was not Northernism but the Northern Kingdom that imported the most weapons last year - they bought a lot of guns and two bullet production lines. Most importantly, the dukes, the army and the royal family even bought no less than eighty cannons.

Among them, the much-discussed three-cannon transaction of the Alkin family was actually the smallest artillery purchase order of the Northern Kingdom.

When the Sidney Alliance saw this, they no longer bothered to condemn the assassin. They were now questioning whether the Eastern Elf Territory was being partial - their Sidney Alliance had only bought forty cannons.

Duke Alessandro of the North had to stand up and say that there were fifty cannons in the North. Now Chaos believers were constantly attacking the Northern defense line, and every cannon was doing its best in the melee with Chaos.

Upon hearing this, Sidney fell silent - if the North was lost, the Chaos believers would move south, and Sidney and the North would be the first to bear the brunt and would not be able to escape.

But the problem is, with so many cannons, how can we confirm which one killed the two kings?

The answer is that it is impossible to tell. The cannon at the scene has been blown up, but most of the base is still intact. Judging from the base of the cannon, it is different from all the cannons sold in the Eastern Elf Territory.

There are two possibilities, either the assassin changed the base himself, or the elf leader changed the base.

In the end, the halfling craftsmen and dwarf craftsmen spent two days confirming that the material of the base was not as good as the base provided by the eastern elves, and it was very likely that the entire cannon was a replica.

As for the artillery shells, the Eastern Elf Territory is completely open to selling them to human countries.

The whole issue then becomes even more confusing.

Up to now, no one has come forward to admit that they are the murderer. Instead, a few small organizations that are not afraid of death have come forward. Unfortunately, when they caught the people and tested them, they found out that they were fakes.

But since they were caught, they were hanged on the gallows.

Du Lin could only sigh. These days, there are so many people who aren't afraid of death. The Northerners remained silent. Although their newspapers boasted about the idea of ​​karma, everyone felt that given Robert's situation, the Northerners wouldn't take action. Robert's fifth son was traveling between Venice and Genoa in Farol, making a killing alongside the Alkin family. If the Northerners took action, he'd be the first to die.

After the Eastern Elf Territory announced the shipment list, the earls and dukedoms of the nearby human countries all began to tacitly crack down on human traffickers, fearing that one day the grassland elves would use artillery to blow up the city walls and kill them all because of some trivial matter.

The Kingdom of Savoy was not willing to be left out, so it sent people to the Elf Territory overnight, saying that there were plenty of Savoy country people who wanted money, and asked if they could give them a batch of cannons and artillery shells. After hearing that the Sidney Alliance had so many cannons, the Savoy people who had become independent at that time could not sleep at night.

As for the Northern Kingdom, the serf uprising was surging, and the citizens fled with their belongings overnight. When the fourth son of the Walter family returned, he was faced with a devastated home.

He wanted to invite the fifth brother back, but the fifth brother Locke said that he would not come back to inherit the family.

As a result, the Northern Kingdom was in chaos, and the entire Western Continent was almost in turmoil.

The king died in such an unclear manner, and now the gate inspections of the capitals of all kingdoms are strict to the point of being abnormal.

Du Lin looked at the newspaper, and his only feeling was that the wizard had accomplished nothing, and any tracing could not trace the scene beyond five meters.

Rabin, in what name did you kill people?

Revenge, revenge for Roy Corleone or revenge for Tony Stark.

Or perhaps it's for Northernism.

It’s a pity that Durin’s intelligence network of the Trinity couldn’t find them either - Farol is difficult to infiltrate, and it’s even possible that there are Northernists among the younger generation of the Trinity, and Durin can’t give orders to every young person.

It would be better to say that he issued the order this morning, and this order should appear in front of Secretary Sora and Secretary Ace by noon.

Dulin could only hope that time would bring Rabin to him.

At the same time, he continued to live in Paris for half a month. Finally, Du Lin decided to return to the Everburning Nest to live for a while, away from the hustle and bustle forever.

This is a good choice - Durin's current identity is different from before, and many guys who want to purchase goods from the warehouse in the Eastern Elf Territory all visit him with various excuses.

For example, the latest visitor came under the banner of Duke Alessandro. After Dulin's investigation, he found that the person was correct, but the Northern Kingdom seemed to be preparing to expand its army.

Why expand the military now?
Du Lin didn't dare to ask, so he could only leave this hot potato to Yuanhuan to deal with, and then he took the girls and fled to the Everburning Nest overnight.

After thinking about the previous two novels, Du Lin finally decided to hand them over to Sidney's Cultural Center for publication - he really didn't want to go to the Northern Kingdom anymore, and this was not the right way to join in the event.

There should be a response in the next week or two.

Mrs. Lin of the Everburning Nest was still in good health. She took Du Lin to meet the three families that had just come to him. Du Lin saw many signs of deformities on them, but all three families said that after choosing to return to the Three Saints Society, although the deformities on their elders were unlikely to change, the conditions on their children had improved a lot, and some even had their legs deformed and dislocated joints alleviated or even improved.

Among them, the old man with a snake tail gave Durin a piece of information - they had seen an abandoned old-era tower in the mountains at the junction of the Great Wasteland, Farol, and the Central and South United Areas.

But there were automatic mechanical guards from the old era there, and they didn't dare to get close - the entire Western Continent knew about the old era automatic mechanical murder case, which was even a cult that could be written into a fairy tale book. No one wanted to use their brains and mechanical bodies to speak human language and rely on luck.
