TOV58

The young girl hugged him, but Colin didn't have any charming thoughts.

Because the two substantive gazes made him look back.

One is from Vera, and the other is from Marquis Garcia.

Especially for the latter one, Colin could almost feel the hidden murderous aura of the other party.

"Brother, I'm so happy to see you!"

Fortunately, the cry of the woman in his arms saved Colin's life.

Right, the woman who rushed up was Colin's sister, Caitlin Angele.

Two sharp gazes immediately moved away from Colin, but he didn't feel relaxed at all.

The excessive enthusiasm of the woman in his arms made Colin very uncomfortable.

On the one hand, he is not a real Colin, but a traverser who lives in this body. On the other hand, it is because Colin has always suspected that his sister Caitlin was the person who participated in the murder!

Lightly patted his sister on the back, Colin comforted: "Sister, Everything is alright. The rain is so heavy, let's go to the city!"

"Good."

Caitlin lifted her head from Colin's arms. The pear blossoms with rain and tears in her smile made Colin wonder if this is also the actor?

This little episode didn't make the welcoming team stay too much, and everyone soon entered the city.

Due to the limited capacity of the Sudor family's castle, there were too many nobles gathered in Ice Rock City at this time, and it was naturally impossible for everyone to live in the castle.

Therefore, Colin still found the hotel where he stayed last time.

As soon as he entered the room, a blue figure sprang out from the corner and plunged into Colin's arms.

This time it was not a person, but a cat.

"Ho ho, I haven't thought that you were still here!" Colin touched Xiao Bai's head, a little surprised.

"Meow~~" Xiao Bai whimpered a few times, as if complaining that the master wanted to abandon herself.

"When did you raise a cat?" Caitlin smiled and looked at her younger brother, and poured two glasses of water.

"I picked it up on the side of the road not long ago and raised it." Colin sat down at the table, but didn't touch the glass of water.

Xiao Bai seemed to be thirsty, leaned to Colin's water glass, stuck out his tongue, and licked it.

Caitlin frowned, trying to drive Xiao Bai away, but was stopped by Colin: "Nothing, let it drink."

"You spoil it too much." Caitlin shook her head, somewhat helpless.

Colin didn't care, but stared at Xiao Bai after drinking the water and carefully observed its reaction.

"I heard Butler Yimen say that you were assassinated in Greycastle?"

"Well, Knight Carter did it, he has been killed by me."

"That treacherous bastard! Father respected him so much." The anger on Caitlin's face didn't seem to be fake at all.

"What happened later? Why did you leave without saying goodbye? How did you follow the Black Cavalry to the ice field?"

Colin looked at Xiao Bai, who wasn't unusual, wondering if he was too sensitive.

At this moment, he heard his sister's inquiry, and briefly recounted what happened later.

As Colin talked, Caitlin was sometimes worried and sometimes amazed. She was exactly what a sister who cares about the safety of her younger brother should be.

After Colin finished speaking, Caitlin said with a lesson: 

"It was too risky for you to leave Greycastle by yourself. Although you said it was to elicit the murderer hiding in the dark, it was still not very appropriate. You should have contacted me as soon as possible!"

"Yes, yes! I didn't think about it well." Colin immediately pretended to be a good baby.

Seeing that Colin was so obedient, Caitlin let him go and asked, "Do you have any clues about the person behind the assassination of you?"

Colin shook his head, then observed every subtle expression of his sister.

Caitlin frowned, seeming to wonder who might murder her brother, but after thinking about it for a while, she didn't have any clues, so she had to say seriously:

"Although we have no clues for the time being, your guard must be strengthened. I will contact Knight Raymond to bring more people to the hotel."

"Has knight Raymond come too? Where is he now?"

"The private armies of the lords are all concentrated in the military camp in the west of the city. This time Raymond brought more than 500 people, all of whom were private soldiers of the Angele family."

Hearing this, Colin frowned.

Caitlin obviously misunderstood Colin's meaning, and explained: "Don't worry, although there are not many soldiers in Greycastle, there should be no major problems."

Most of the Angele family's army was taken to the battlefield by Colin's father, and then the whole army was overthrown.

This time Raymond brought out another five hundred people. According to the memory of Colin's predecessor, the remaining army in Graycastle is estimated to be less than a hundred people.

But in fact, what Colin worries about is not the safety of Graycastle.

"Who asked Raymond to bring people to Ice Rock City?"

"It's the knight Kahn, son of Viscount Sudor."

"He can't order Raymond to move!"

"I had already returned to Greycastle at the time. After receiving a letter from Knight Kahn, I ordered Knight Raymond to bring people to Ice Rock City. I am very worried about your safety."

Colin wanted to say that you were not qualified to order the knight Raymond, but he swallowed it.

Caitlin's performance was so natural, he couldn't tell whether the other party was really worried about his safety or wanted to pull the Angele family into the water.

The current Ice Rock City is an extremely dangerous political vortex. Although the lords of the Northern Territory have brought troops there, Colin really does not want the Angele family to be involved.

"Okay. I will go to Raymond myself, you don't have to worry about it."

Colin went to see Raymond himself, of course not for his own guard.

In fact, he was eager for his own assassination.

This time he must stay alive so that he can interrogate the instigator behind the scenes.

The reason why he wanted to go to Raymond himself was to tell the other party that no matter what happens in Ice Rock City in the future, the army of the Angele family can only obey his orders.

No one else, including Caitlin, has the right to mobilize this army.

He had a hunch that these northern lords concentrated their troops in Ice Rock City, and they should be preparing to do something.

And this mastermind behind the scenes, of course, is not the soft-blooded knight Kahn who dare not even go to the battlefield.

He was just a puppet pushed to the front of the stage.

Just like at the banquet that forced the Marquis of Charles to abandon his title, the knight Kahn who stood up was just a stunned star.

And standing behind him...

Colin thought of one of the suspects - Earl Uman.

"By the way, do you have any information about the whereabouts of my brother-in-law?" Colin asked suddenly.

When they met at Mirror Lake Camp, Knight Raymond told Colin that his sister’s husband knight Varla, who was the illegitimate son of the Earl of Uman, had gone out with Baron Angele, but he separated after the defeat.

Caitlin's eyes instantly reddened, and she choked with sobs: "There is no news."

"Don't worry, brother-in-law must be in trouble, we will always find him."

Colin was puzzled, what's going on?

In his opinion, Earl Uman’s motive for assassinating himself was actually to seek a family business for this illegitimate son who had no inheritance rights.

But I didn't think of...

Is the knight Varla really so bad, or is he also acting?
