'I can rest assured that. '

Hellagur stood up and left.

.......

When Kamsko was in chaos, a special convoy quietly appeared on the road outside the city.

Tallulah pursed her lips as she sat in her seat.

"Our role this time is to contact officials in Kamsk and discuss some matters. And to do some 'political investigation' here."

Tallulah is currently a member of Kosche's spy organization 'Black Snake'.

The above is the content of their tasks.

To be honest, Tallulah was still a little confused about this mission. After all, most of the things Black Snake did were dirty jobs like assassination and kidnapping.

What is a 'political investigation'?

Tallulah had a vague feeling that Kosice was behind this.

Especially since this team also includes Kosice's right-hand man, the leader of the 'Black Snake', a man named 'Dumiso'.

This man is a sinister and cunning guy. Although he is of a different race from Kosice, his methods are indeed like those of a cold snake.

Countless thoughts flashed through Tallulah's mind, and finally she lowered her head slightly.

No matter what....she wanted to meet that person.

Chapter 30 Dumiso

Dumiso and Kosice are like-minded.

He was a smiling male Pero with cunning eyes, a distinct face, hard bones, and every contour so sharp, revealing a cunning and vicious temperament.

Dumiso is in charge of the Black Snake organization and has some understanding of Koschei's plan.

Perhaps Kosice's preparations sounded a bit convoluted, such as 'supporting Luo Chen to take the position' and 'staging a coup'...but for Dumiso, everything can be broken down.

For example, inducing senior officials to stage a coup is actually another form of bribery and inducement.

Another example is to cause chaos, which is simply fanning the flames. Killing a few people can cause great chaos.

Dumiso is very familiar with this, and his subordinates are also experts in this area.

According to the evidence handed over previously, Emperor Ursus's appointment will arrive two days late.

After all, it is an appointment by nobility, so the fastest method must be used.

The people led by Dumiso need to make arrangements within these two days. They need to win over the officials, sneak into the disaster camp, and negotiate with Viscount Igor....

These are Dumiso's specialties.

He thought all this was not difficult.

It's even a bit of a waste of talent.

"A young man who only knows how to save people. It will be easy to eliminate him in the political struggle." Dumiso sneered contemptuously.

He sat in the passenger seat of the car, looked at the city in the distance, and took out a telescope from his arms.

Their first stop was the Viscount's mansion at Kamesco.

The emperor's dismissal order is expected to arrive at the same time as the appointment order. Dumisuo wants to seize this information gap and squeeze the viscount hard.

Using both carrot and stick, and making subtle threats, Dumiso was sure that at least half of this guy's assets would be taken out by him.

"In a small city like this, the tallest building might be the nobles' mansion..." Dumiso thought, and then looked through the telescope.

"what?"

Dumiso was stunned because he could not see the originally tall and magnificent building through the lens.

All he saw was...a dark mass.

Then, in his eyes, the black mass moved, and then... collapsed!

"?" Even as a professional spy chief, Dumiso's brain was unable to react when he saw such a scene.

He blinked in confusion, as if wondering if he had seen it wrong.

Dumiso wiped the lens of the telescope and looked again.

The dark mass in the distance had disappeared. A cloud of black dust rose in the sky.

"Something's wrong. There's a problem." Dumiso's face was gloomy. "Something happened in the city!"

.........

Something really happened in the city.

This stems from Sergei's receipt of the 'Viscount Legacy'.

Sergei cracked down on dissidents and hunted down traitors in the city, and at the same time took over most of the power.

With power, the first thing Sergei did was to check the warehouse.

It turned out that the storage in the city was only average, or even a little insufficient, which was not in line with Viscount Igor's extravagant style.

So Sergei was sure that Igor must have a secret private warehouse.

After interrogating several servants, Sergei determined that the other party's warehouse must be hidden under the mansion.

As a result, the Viscount's mansion, which had originally been reduced to ruins by the fire, suffered a new round of destruction.

Various bulldozers and excavators are digging here.

Sergei stood aside and watched eagerly.

He really needs the money.

Because no matter how much he cursed those "country bumpkins", the city still needed their supply of food.

If the struggle continues, when the real cold arrives, Sergei's position as the "acting city lord" will be pulled down by the angry other petty nobles.

So Sergey must get the money. Otherwise, it will be a dead end!

But the process was not smooth. After digging for several days, there was still nothing. Sergey was so worried that he lost a few more hairs on his head.

"Lord City Lord." One of his men came running over, shouting, "Someone is here to see you!"

"Whoever it is, get out of here... I'm busy!" Sergei said angrily.

"He...he said he is the Grand Duke's man..." the subordinate whispered.

"What?!" Sergei was shocked. "Get ready, I'll be there soon!"

Dumiso waited in the room for a while, and Sergei came out dressed.

He was all smiles, like an old pug - "Are you the Archduke's envoy? Oh... I am sorry for not welcoming you."

"You guys are finally here. I almost couldn't hold on any longer...those rebels outside the city..."

Sergei began to cry, with snot and tears streaming down his face.

Dumiso looked at him expressionlessly, while Tallulah, who was standing behind him, turned her head away with a look of disgust.

"Let me tell you clearly first, what happened here?" Dumiso asked coldly.

"What happened... A few days ago... Viscount Igor was assassinated." Sergei said timidly.

"Killed by someone?" Even Dumiso was shocked.

Although he had heard a lot of rumors on the road, he still found it hard to accept this matter.

An Ursus noble, current city lord. Killed in his own city.

This is rare, very rare.

Even if this happens on the border, it could very well become the fuse of war.

“As if!” Tallulah, who was listening from behind, felt completely different.

She feels....happy.

The nobles of Ursus were all bastards like Kosice. Tallulah had known this for a long time. Therefore, the death of these nobles was indeed a happy thing for her.

"Who killed him?" Dumiso continued to ask.

"Those country bumpkins..." Sergei immediately entered performance mode.

He was full of words condemning the "nobles" in the town, as if they were evil and had just walked in and killed the viscount.

"Are you sure it was them who did it?" Dumiso frowned slightly.

This didn't make sense, he couldn't figure out why those local tyrants would come to assassinate the Viscount. This didn't make sense at all.

"Sure. It must have been them!" Sergei said righteously.

In fact, he does not have direct evidence. But he cannot admit this. If he admits it...

Sergei knew that he would die faster!

Even if you are wrong, you must continue to follow the mistake!

Sergei knew this very well, so he waved his hand and produced a lot of evidence.

When I spread it out, I saw that it was all interrogation records.

These records show that some officials in the city had close ties with people outside the city and accepted bribes and passed on information.

These were all "dissidents" captured by Sergei and then tortured into confessions.

But no matter what, the evidence is here. Sergei is sure that even if the next city lord comes, he will not be able to deny it.

What? You mean you want to ask these interrogation subjects directly?

Sorry, their wounds accidentally became infected and they died in prison.

What Sergei cares about is that there will be no evidence, and now he insists that those people did it.

Dumiso didn't even look at the evidence, because he knew it could be forged. And he saw what kind of person Sergei was.

A fence-sitter who bullies the weak and fears the strong, with ruthless and vicious means. An extreme egoist.

To be honest, most Ursus officials are like this.

Dumiso has seen too much.

"Tell me the whole story. Or what happened before the Viscount died? Tell me in detail." Dumiso said directly.

This is a tough time for Sergey.

Because they can't directly say what they did before.

What about human trafficking, what about not caring about the victims and watching them die, what about the core city not being able to warm up to the sudden natural disaster...

These can be said in private. Even done.

But it's not something that can be put on the table.

So Sergei's words were incoherent and contradictory, and his forehead was covered with sweat from anxiety.

But Dumiso was Kosice's right-hand man after all, and he found something valuable in Sergei's confusing language.

So after the other party left, he immediately gave an order -

"You guys, sneak into the slums and investigate."

Chapter 31 We Got It...

"Help me carry my stuff."

"Okay~" Luo Chen picked up a huge piece of iron sheet and threw it out easily.
