MTL - Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit-Chapter 209 The Black and White Court joins in, exerting pressure from various parties (4/5)
"I sometimes... really feel that the world is too complicated."
September 19th, the eleventh game cycle, the endless sea world.
Having been busy all morning, Kestrel sat at Li Feng's house, chatting with him about what happened in Storm's End yesterday.
"Rhein, do you know that Jory is not the child of Governor Fell!
He is the child of Celine Weiss and Moros.
And also, Moros and Celine Weiss are cousins.
This is too messy..."
Kestrel feels the complexity of this world.
And Li Feng felt that he had heard the same thing several times from different angles.
"I really didn't expect—"
Kestrel shook his head, looking quite unbelievable:
"Only two days ago, when we last met, I was quite worried about whether Jory would trouble you again in the future.
But who would have thought that he died that night!
And his life experience was revealed, he is now the son of sinners.
Those fellows in Storm's End are eager to cut ties with him now, and then spurn him severely.
Even if Jory was dead, they were afraid that they would have any connection with him and offend the governor.
To tell the truth, Jory not only died a miserable death, but also lost all decency and good name after death. "
Listening to Kestrel's gossip, Li Feng nodded and thought in his heart, it seems that Xi Ya's plan was very successful.
After chatting casually for a while, Li Feng pretended to remember something, and asked:
"By the way, since Jory is not Governor Fell's child, did the Governor let the Ring of the Earth examine the body?"
Originally, Governor Fell did not allow anyone to get close to Jory's body, which could also explain his grief and deep affection.
But now, Jory has nothing to do with him at all, and it doesn't make sense to stop the investigation.
"Uh-no."
Hearing Li Feng asked, Kestrel shook his head, pondered for a while before hesitatingly said:
"That's why I came to you.
Governor Fell was very angry after learning the truth, and he ordered Jory's body to be thrown into the sea.
How should I put it, it must be hard to feel cheated and betrayed, but I always feel that he is overreacting.
After all, besides being a father, he is also the governor of an island.
Now, in his own land, there seems to be a Soul Eater contaminated with forbidden magic, and he is at large.
He didn't intend to investigate at all, so he didn't see anyone and didn't do anything on the grounds that he was hit and was in a bad mood.
To be honest, I have known Penrose Fell for more than ten years, and I don’t think he is a person who values family affection and puts his family in such an important position. "
Kestrel said some details that he knew, and Li Feng listened carefully.
He could see that Kestrel was already suspicious.
As for Penrose Fell, the Kestrel's suspicion was much more stressful than the suspicion of the ministers of Storm's End.
This is the effect Li Feng wanted.
"Rhein, do you know the Black and White Courtyard on Guanghui Island?"
After finishing the governor's topic, Kestrel suddenly changed the topic and asked about the Black and White Academy.
Li Feng thought for a while:
"Is it the Black and White House, an organization of hidden people?"
"That's right."
Kestrel nodded:
"The bloodless body you found in the reef cave, and the cause of Jory's death, all remind me of something that happened some time ago."
Kestrel straightened his mind, recalled the past, and continued:
"At that time, when you went out to search for Faranell's notes, and you were not in Wind's Rest, Morning Star, the hidden person from the Black and White Court, came to Wind's Rest."
‘Morning star? The wood elf? '
Li Feng quickly recalled the previous events.
In Jinhu Town near Wind's Rest, Li Feng rescued Mrs. Alvin's grandson-in-law and sneaked into the home of Moros's nephew, Borg Moros, for notes.
It was there that he first met Morning Star.
As far as Li Feng knows, the reason why Chen Xing went to Moros was to hunt down traitors for the Black and White Court.
"The Black and White Institute and the Ring of the Earth have a deep cooperation, so Chen Xing came to find me when he arrived in Wind's Rest."
Kestrel continued:
"She told me that the Black and White Academy had received news that there was a traitor who betrayed the Black and White Academy hiding in Wind's Rest City.
That person is called Marthas, a fourth-rank and ninth-rank Soul Eater.
Oh, by the way, this person was originally a hidden person. Later, he was infused with the essence of demons and became a favored person of the abyss. At the same time, he became a soul eater. "
'The Hidden One...It is exactly as I guessed. '
Li Feng was more certain in his heart, he thought for a while, and asked following the train of thought of Kestrel:
"You mean, the people whose bodies were dumped in the rocky cave, as well as Jory, were all killed by this man named Marthas?"
"I guess so."
Kestrel replied:
"Because the clues of Morningstar's investigation were broken at that time, she did not catch Marthas.
But the thing that worries me is another one. "
Kestrel looked towards the direction of the sea outside the window, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"I have a little channel to inquire about news...
A few days ago, I heard that the Black and White Institute had found some clues. Their ocean-going ship went to sea, and the destination was the waters near Storm Island.
The information I got is that their operation this time is to capture the most famous traitor of the Black and White Academy—Mathus.
The Black and White Academy has hunted him down for more than twenty years, because he stole something from the courtyard when he rebelled.
Some people say that it belongs to the mermaid clan, and there are also rumors that it belongs to the black dragon clan, but it is very important anyway.
In fact, not only the Black and White Court, the king also issued a warrant for the arrest of Marthas.
Mathus is a vicious man. In pursuit of power, he has done many bloodbaths in villages and towns.
But this person has always been very cautious. Over the years, he has rarely left any clues to reveal his flaws.
But this time, first there is the bloodless corpse in the reef cave, then the killing of Jory openly, and the clues he accidentally left at sea.
It made me think that Marthas was planning something, and his mentality seemed to have changed.
It was as if, as long as the plan was successful, he could not care about the black and white courts that hunted him down, or the kingdom's arrest warrant.
That's why he dared to act recklessly, and even dared to kill Jory publicly. "
Kestrel was very worried, but Li Feng was somewhat pleasantly surprised.
He didn't expect that he could make Kestrel associate so much with Hyzan imitating Marthas's method of killing people.
However, based on the information he has and his starting point, it seems normal to think of this level.
"If Masshas was cautious before, but suddenly changed his behavior pattern, there must be a reason."
Li Feng contributed to the flames.
Kestrel agrees:
"So I plan to contact the Black and White Institute and invite them to investigate in Wind's Rest in the name of the Ring of the Earth.
But there must always be a reason for the investigation, and I always feel that the Governor will not cooperate.
So I guess, with the bloodless body you found in the reef cave as an excuse, I don't know what Rhine is up to. "
Kestrel finally revealed the real purpose of his visit to Li Feng.
Li Feng nodded, and he readily agreed:
"No problem, if there is anything that needs my cooperation, just tell me."
Kestrel was very happy when he heard the words, but in fact Li Feng was also very happy.
Because it is not only the Ring of the Earth that is putting pressure on Penrose Fell, soon the Black and White Academy will also join in.
