Lord God Investigator

Ellen Linville straddles Milo, pounding the poor man with his fists like crazy.

The screams had long since changed from loud to weak, from weak to silent.

But the film owner still didn't stop, punching him mechanically. His anger overwhelmed his reason, and it was difficult to extinguish it before burning everything.

Finally, the Shadow Master's arm was sore, and the skin on his hand was broken. The fist was bloody and bloody. Most of it was Milo's blood and tears, and a small part was his own blood.

He stopped, breathing heavily.

For a moment, he wanted to laugh, thinking that maybe the drama "The Love of Ghosts" did not discredit shadow thieves. Even the right-hand man of his shadow actor could say such stupid things. The shadow thieves who were played by ghosts in the show were better than Milo is much smarter.

Ellen stood up from Milo, who was taking in less air and outgoing more. He took the handkerchief handed over by Renault's bloody head and wiped the blood on his hand.

"Let the other members of the assassination team come to see me. I want to ask them one by one."

Renoir agreed with blood and walked out, but was stopped by the film owner Ellen: "Wait, you don't have to come to see me. Let the assassination team kneel and wait for me in the execution room. I will ask myself."

The film owner emphasized the word "ask" very strongly, and it was obvious that his way of asking was not a calm one.

…

The elite shadow thieves who participated in the assassination operation were stripped of their shirts and knelt down fearfully on the cold and damp stone floor of the torture chamber. The ground was glowing with a deep scarlet color. This kind of black and red that cannot be washed away, it takes an unknown amount of flesh and blood to condense. .

In front of them was the body of Milo, the deputy captain of the operation. The flesh on poor Milo's face had been beaten away, and only a blur of red flesh and bones and a few black holes could be seen on his face.

Ellen Linville walked up to them and said with a cold face: "Why did the assassination operation fail? What happened to the Akanis brothers? This is a question I must figure out tonight. You will not suffer because of the failure of the operation. Punishment, but you will die because you can’t give me a reasonable explanation!”

"Yes, Lord Shadow Master, we must tell you everything we know, and we will tell you everything we know."

"I...I really don't know what happened..."

"Sir, I dare not hide anything, but the situation at that time is really difficult to explain..."

…

The elite shadow thieves tried their best to clear things up, but they didn't know how to explain, and they talked in a variety of ways.

Ai Lang walked over and stabbed the knife into the heart of the shadow thief who shouted that he didn't know what happened. Then he pushed his body to the ground.

"Next, you tell me."

His tone was very calm, and he asked the shadow thief kneeling next to the deceased while holding a dagger with blood still dripping from the tip.

"Sir... Your Majesty... I, I saw Arcanis stabbing Bredero through the whole body with a knife, and then he stared at Bredero for a long time, dazed for a while, and then... then... Starting to protect Bredro, Bart originally wanted to give Bredro a last-ditch shot, but was stopped by Arcanis."

With his life under threat, the shadow thief struggled to describe the situation at the scene, but he managed to get it right.

"Bart, tell me."

The film owner let him go and turned to another person, who was the little boss who wanted to take advantage of him and make great achievements.

"At that time, Lord Arkanis had already thrust his dagger into Bredlow's chest. For some reason, he didn't kill him on the spot. Instead, he left to kill another group of troublemakers. So I sneaked over, intending to help Lord Arkanis complete the unfinished work. It happened, but Lord Arkanis actually held the dagger I stabbed with his hand, and even snatched the dagger away..."

Ellen's face became more and more gloomy. He guessed some possibilities and asked another person: "You are a mage. Did you sense the charm magic at that time? Why didn't you use 'dispel magic' on Akanis at that time?"

"Sir, I used it. Milo also used the 'Dispersion' magic. Before the war started, I had given Lord Arkanis the immune control 'Chaos Command' magic. It doesn't seem like Lord Arkanis was hit. Any charm spells and control spells, he’s wide awake.”

"When he stopped us, his tone of voice was very strange, as if his mood was fluctuating very much. It was completely different from his usual speaking style."

"The way he looked at Bradlow was very different, just like... like the last scene in "Titanic", when Io looks at Rose from a distance..."

…

After a round of questioning, Alan Linville asked Ellen Linville about all the details of what happened at the scene.

He fell into thinking and analyzed carefully.

He was not hit by any charm or control spells, and he was very conscious. Before his transformation, he looked at each other "affectionately" with Bredero for a while. When the two fought, it was hard to tell who would win, and they seemed to care about each other. You could hear Bredlow in the tone of their replies. It seems that it is very important to Arkanis, and he must protect him from any harm. The tone of Arkanis's words at that time contained a very rare emotion, unlike his usual cold style, and the eyes he looked at Bredreau were full of affection. …

Is it really what Milo guessed?

If Ellen had been Milo, he would have guessed the same thing when he saw that scene on the spot.

Oops, it seems that Milo was wronged and accidentally killed the wrong person... Ellen was annoyed for a few seconds and then put it behind him.

I never expected that, Brother Arkanis, you are such a person.

No wonder I have to be close to women, no wonder I like fitness so much. I don’t have any entertainment on weekdays. I only go to the guild’s practice room to hone my skills with the boys...

Brother, if you have needs in this area, tell me, the Shadow Thieves Guild doesn't have much else, but there are groups of good guys.

Ellen sighed deeply, and the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. She felt that this happened because she usually cared too little about the Akanis brothers and only regarded him as a sharp knife.

Arkanis is also a human being, he is not a cold dagger, he also needs feelings.

However, it is not good to fall in love with anyone, but to fall in love with Bradero?

Even if you fall in love with Bradero, when can't you fall in love without waiting until you are halfway through killing him?

Fate is so wonderful.

Unexpectedly, the God of Love Church had just established a temple in the city of Ascaltra, and the power of God of Love would exert a huge influence. It seems that the failure of the assassination was a force majeure and not a crime of war.

Ai Lang rubbed his aching forehead and waved his hand to disperse the kneeling shadow thief elites, no longer pursuing the blame for the failed assassination.

He fell into a bigger problem. Arkanis-Gas is now Bredlow's man. He is a legendary assassin and the former patron saint of shadow thieves. No one knows Arkanis's identity better than Ellen. It's scary, there's no one in Faerûn that he can't kill.

What if Bredlow seduces him with his beauty and blows the pillow, and Arcanis forgets his love and turns around to attack his former eldest brother?

The more he thought about it, the heavier Ellen Linville's heart became.
