Count Rias of Korra stood in front of the bed and looked at the maid kneeling on the ground.
Only then did I remember that the general in front of me had just arrived today and didn't know the situation here.
"Count Kula is also a nobleman.
His mansion is opposite the Lucifergus family.
It is our neighbor.
The people guarding just now found that there were all dead people inside."
The maid here looked a little panicked.
Rias and Lucia hurriedly ran to the window.
The outside was already illuminated by fire.
Except for the courtyard of Lucifergus' house, the surrounding areas were dark.
They didn't know where the so-called Earl Kula's house was. .
At this time, there were hurried footsteps again near the corridor near the door.
Rias hurriedly put on her coats, and Lucia was busy changing her into armor.
"Don't be anxious.
At this time, you should first understand the situation and then make plans."
"Would you please get up first?
Are everyone in the Earl's family dead?
Who did it so boldly?"
Rias asked.
Lucia lit the few candles beside the bed.
The maid who was kneeling on the ground stood up.
She shook her head, with fear in her eyes.
It seemed that the maid was not very old.
Perhaps it was her first time seeing a murder scene, and her whole body was still trembling slightly.
The sounds outside the door gradually came inside the house.
"General Rias, are you okay?"
A soldier stood at the door, not daring to walk in.
"I'm fine, what happened outside?"
The maid couldn't tell and Rias had to ask other people.
"There are assassins in the noble manor.
General, please follow me to the lobby.
Commander Ain is already waiting in the lobby."
It turned out that he was here to take people down.
In this case, Rias had to pick herself up from the window.
Follow out the door.
The corridors were full of soldiers, searching the houses one by one.
Lit up almost everything that can be lit up.
There are people all the way from the corridor to the lobby, and there is light all the way.
This made Wang Chujue wonder if someone was coming to seek revenge, and the sudden accident made his sleepiness disappear.
Anyone who is so powerful and actually comes to kill people among nobles must have sworn hatred, or he is so strong that he can completely ignore the guards of all noble families.
Without giving himself time to think, the soldier led the two of them down the room and opened the door to the hall.
And there's no one in the hall "This is Miss Rias."
An old man standing at the door opposite greeted him.
He is the butler of Lucifer Fergus.
Wang Chu remembers seeing him many times at dinner.

He is responsible for the food of all family members.
It seems that he is also the surname of Lucifer Fergus, so when he calls Rias, he uses the name of the family. tone, and did not address the general.
"Where's Uncle Ain?"
"They are all here.
There are probably assassins in this area, so we didn't tell everyone where they were going."
The housekeeper opened the door behind him, and there was an empty corridor.
It's closed, and there are doors on both sides, even a hundred meters across.
It's like a maze.
"This way, miss."
Wang Chu didn't have time to count which door he opened at the back.
It was probably the fourth door from the entrance.
Then in the corridor, Rias and Lucia glanced at each other.
There were so many maze corridors built in the house.
The housekeeper opened another door on the left.
This time, Wang Chu really didn’t know which one it was.
Because there was no reference, the one that appeared on his side was also the corresponding door.
One door, so I can’t count.
After opening it, I walked outside the house.
Rias looked back at the house behind her.
The place she came out of was not the front door, nor did it look like the back door.
It was in a courtyard among the houses anyway, but she could see the outside, that is, the entire road.
A place outside the West Figgs family home.
It looked like an escape route.
The four children of the family in front of them and Ain were among them, and there were several older women next to them, also wearing long dresses like Novai.
These people are all Ain's wives, but it is said that his first wife passed away due to illness in his early years.
These people are regarded as side rooms, so there is no need to introduce them separately, and there is no chance to bring them to the table during dinner in the evening.
"Thank God, eldest niece, you're fine."
When Ain saw Rias being brought over, they hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
Suddenly Wang Chu found that the eldest son beside him, named Henry, actually ran over and asked about Lucia's situation.
But the answer was indeed Rias.
"We are all fine, Uncle Iron, what happened."
It was still late at night and the whole family was searching everywhere.
Several noble houses could be seen outside, and they seemed to have lit bonfires.
"Something happened at Count Kula's house.
His courtyard was close to our house.
On weekdays, the patrolling soldiers from both families would chat a few words at night, but that didn't happen today.
The patrolling soldiers on the other side were always dark.
Yes, and it seems to have been like this since nightfall.
I called the other side several times but there was no answer, and then I realized that something happened over there."
As Ain was talking, a group of heavily armed soldiers gathered behind him.
"Commander Ain, according to your order, we have assembled and are in position."
"Okay, very good."
Ain turned to Rias and said.
"Among the noble families around here, we have the most family soldiers.
I have already informed other nearby nobles to stay at home and don't come out.

I will lead a team to enter Count Kula's mansion to have a look.
Rias, you can follow us."
"Okay."
Neither of them knew what was going on at the moment.
The best thing was to follow the team so that they could take care of each other.
"Follow me" Ain took a large sword handed over by Henry as a weapon.
He led the team towards the mansion opposite.
Wang Chu looked at the surrounding place, and it was strange that there was an illusion of tranquility in nature.
"Did you find anything, Cam?"
Rias noticed that she was looking around, but the two of them couldn't communicate verbally, and Wang Chu just felt strange and didn't find anything unusual.
The reason why I say it is strange is because the environment is not right.
At night, be it an owl, night bug, firefly, or even a cricket, it should be chirping.
Why is it so quiet.
This is so abnormal.
Wang Chu calmed down and asked about the voice of nature again.
Sometimes scenes that humans cannot fully see are different in front of nature, just like the fruit tree in the yard of his home in Hajir City.
He knows almost everything he does at home.
You can see it.
Calling for someone to hear my voice, whether it's an animal or a plant.
At least say something.
Is anyone here:
