Late at night, in the luxurious bedroom of the manor's main house.
Shirley's father paced back and forth with a pale face, complaining to Shirley's mother: "It's all your good idea! What did you say about agreeing to the marriage contract, allowing the lowly boy to start contacting the aristocratic circle, undermining his confidence, and making him take the initiative to leave Shirley, but what was the result? Instead, he grabbed it tighter!"
"Who knew he was so shameless!" Shirley's mother said with a gloomy face.
Shirley's father snorted: "You have seen too little of the world, you don't understand human nature at all, this kind of poor boy just wants to become an aristocrat through marriage, the more we show it, the more eager he is, how can he take the initiative to leave?"
"You know! You know everything! Then you still agree with my idea and agree to the marriage contract?" Shirley's mother roared sharply, "Tell me, what can you do? Shirley was like being controlled by magic, and she didn't listen to any advice! He even threatened me with his life!
Shirley's father's expression became cold and he hesitated: "Of course I have a way."
Shirley's mother was stunned for a moment: "Do you have a way? What is the way? Why didn't you say it earlier?"
A series of questions exposed her panicked, anxious and angry heart.
"I found someone to observe this kid, he is very interested in herbalism and medicine blending, and often goes to the swamp to look for exotic herbs." Shirley's father had a cold face and raised his right hand, "After a while, find a mercenary to follow him to the swamp, and then, click ......."
He made a gesture to pinch his throat.
"What? Are you going to kill him? Aren't you afraid that Shirley will hate us for the rest of my life? Aren't you afraid that she will commit suicide? She often threatens us with her life!" Shirley's mother asked in a broken voice.
Shirley's father smiled sinisterly: "How could she doubt us? We have been softened by her and promised to be a good parent, if we want to kill him, how can we agree to the engagement?"
"You ......" Shirley's mother suddenly woke up, "That's why you agreed to the engagement?"
"Well, otherwise how could I give in?" Shirley's father nodded, "At today's banquet, those young people who like Shirley seem to be very dissatisfied with the poor boy, Shirley should regard them as objects of suspicion, jealousy has always been one of the main factors in crime."
"Very good, I don't want to see that poor boy again at all!" Shirley's mother smiled with satisfaction, "Honey, you are so smart, when do you plan to do it, I have to look at Shirley."
Shirley's father shook his head: "Don't worry, I said, jealousy has always been one of the main factors in crime, those boys are all from aristocratic backgrounds, they have always been bold with civilians, and they can do anything, so observe for a while, maybe they can help us achieve our goals? Then we don't have to venture out to find adventurers ourselves, hehe, I promised this banquet for this purpose."
"You have always been right." Shirley's mother smiled and nodded.
…………
In one of the rooms in the main house of the manor.
The three noble children who had behaved the most provocative at the banquet before quietly gathered together.
"Andrew, my anger is hard to contain." One of the aristocratic children with naturally curly hair said angrily.
The tall and fat young nobleman named Andrew said with a gloomy face: "Me too! Yes, I like Shirley very much, but it's not to the point where I can't get her to go crazy, so if she marries another nobleman, I will only be sad and won't do anything drastic, but, but, she actually wants to marry a commoner boy, a kid who has no hope of stimulating her blood at all! This is an insult to my personality, an insult to the dignity of the nobility, how can I face other people at a banquet in the future? "Yo, Andrew, you can't even compare to a commoner boy?" 」
"Yes, I can't wait to kill him now!" Another young man with amber eyes waved his fist heavily.
The natural nobleman who spoke at the beginning nodded vigorously: "I'm the same as you, but now that poor boy is Shirley's fiancé, what we are going to do will probably excite the Baron Brennell couple, who have a wide influence nearby."
He looked very frustrated, and Brunzel was Shirley's last name.
The room suddenly became quiet and fell into an indescribable silence.
Suddenly, Andrew snorted coldly: "This kind of thing can be done without us coming forward."
"Huh?" The other two looked at him suspiciously.
Andrew smiled and said: "I know a night watchman, as long as he accuses the poor boy of being a magic apprentice."
"Is he a magic apprentice?" The amber-eyed young nobleman asked in astonishment.
"Whether it was before or not, it will definitely be in the future." Andrew said viciously.
Oh! The other two nobles were no strangers to this trick, and they immediately understood what Andrew really meant.
"But what if Baron Brensel goes to save him?" The natural volume aristocracy asks a question.
Andrew smiled and said: "Since the church occupied Alto, those magicians have become more hidden, and many night watchmen have not killed the evil ones for a long time.
"If there is no 'evidence', then let the baron not be able to bear the torture and 'die' before he saves people, anyway, he is just a civilian, and no one will really pursue it." The amber-eyed young nobleman complemented the plan.
The naturally curly hair nobleman said with some concern: "But in this way, will the night watchmen get used to 'making magicians', and will they get it on our heads?"
"Idiot, we are nobles!" Andrew scolded, "Okay, let's get together some 'Kintal', so that it is easier to persuade the night watchman I know."
While the three of them were actively discussing, there was a maid standing outside the door, holding a tea tray in her right hand and her left hand frozen in mid-air, maintaining her posture before knocking on the door.
Her face was pale, her ears swayed slightly, and she could hear the voice inside clearly.
She is a human with a special bloodline, and although she did not stimulate her bloodline and became a knight, she has been a bit peculiar since she was a child, and her hearing is very outstanding, so she was sent by the Brensel couple to work in the guest room.
Holding her breath, the maid quietly turned around and left the door step by step, waiting for the corner before she quickened her pace and headed towards the master bedroom.
"Very good, you did a good job, I will take care of this matter, don't tell the young lady, so she won't worry." Baron Brensel said with a "indignant" face.
Hey, this plan is amazing, as long as after tonight and tomorrow day, no matter what I do, I can't save Vicente's life, Shirley, don't blame me, Dad can't do anything...... He rehearsed in his mind how to comfort Shirley, well, when Vicente was caught, he would bury the maid in the garden.
Do things without leaving any loopholes.
Early the next morning, the maid who had had had a nightmare wakes up early to bring breakfast to the guests, only to find that Andrew and other young nobles had left at some point.
"Did they start acting?" The maid thought with a little worry in her heart, Miss Shirley is gentle and kind, has a good attitude towards her servants, never beats and scolds and tortures, if her fiancé dies, she will definitely be sad, I wonder if the baron will have time to stop it?
Worried, she unknowingly walked to Shirley's bedroom and heard a soft female voice humming a cheerful and happy melody inside.
"Miss is very happy......" she subconsciously thought, should I tell her about this, let her inform Mr. Victor to hide, and wait until the baron solves this matter before coming back?
She had the impression that Andrew's family was much more prominent than the baron, so she was a little worried that Baron Brensel would not be able to stop it in time.
She lingered at the door, unable to make up her mind, on one side was the young lady who was very good to her, and on the other hand, she was the order of the baron.
Suddenly, the door to the room opened, and Shirley looked at her with a stunned face, not understanding why she appeared in front of her door.
After the atmosphere froze for a while, Shirley said softly: "Nice, what happened? What can I do for you?" She thought Ness was here to ask for help.
Nice shivered all over, and made up her mind in the soft care, she quickly looked around and said in a low voice: "Come into the room and say."
The door closed, and Shirley listened to Nice tell her about it again.
Her face suddenly turned pale, and her heart was filled with a tidal wave of worry, if it was just a simple false accusation, she believed that she begged her father to come forward, there should be no problem, but, however, there were several corpses hidden in Vicente's basement, several corpses that had been dismembered by him!
If he is discovered by the night watchman, who will believe that he is not a magician except himself?
And the father and mother were not very satisfied with Vicente, under normal circumstances, it was possible to save them, in this case, they would never guarantee Vicente.
No, Vicente must be notified and asked to destroy those corpses or throw them back into the swamp! Shirley paced back and forth anxiously for a few steps and decided to rush to Vicente's house.
It's not that she doesn't want a faster servant or guard to go in her place, but how could she tell others about the corpse!
…………
In the new cemetery.
Oliver and another burial man were left here by the bald villain George, because the "grave keeper" had just been buried in the cemetery today, and the town hall and the church could not find a replacement for a while, so they asked George to help guard it for two days.
George wouldn't stay in this eerie cemetery by himself, so he left Oliver behind: This damn boy, how dare you seduce my daughter, I have to make him understand that I am the manipulator of his fate!
If he wasn't worried about Oliver escaping, he didn't even want to arrange for another corpse burial.
Oliver was tortured conservatively during this time, suffering pain like never before, and his arrogance gradually disappeared from his young face, replaced with a numb expression, and his heart gradually became mature.
"Only love is the only candlelight in this miserable world......" he sighed in a low voice, although George's daughter was not beautiful and not the type he liked, but she warmed his desperate heart.
Looking at his companion who seemed to want to fight someone else at any time, Oliver decided to go out for a walk.
"If you dare to escape, I will catch you back and bury you alive!" The other corpse buried man threatened him viciously.
Oliver's mood was bad again, and during this time, he was beaten a lot. After leaving the "Tomb Keeper" hut, he paced slowly in the cemetery, and the strong smell of corpses could no longer affect him in any way.
"The silver moon is so beautiful, but I am such a miserable ......" Oliver raised his head and looked at the bright silver moon, and suddenly his emotions surged, and his poetry was in high spirits, but when he was about to write a sonnet, his feet suddenly emptied, and a scream came out of his mouth, "Ah!"
Pop, crash, a cemetery collapsed directly, countless bones and carrion were exposed, and the slackness of the buried corpses created patches of unstable ground.
