Chapter 135 Dark Minstrels
As soon as Wen Liang heard the news, he almost subconsciously stared at Su Mu's face with an eagle-looking look.
But there is no doubt that Su Mu's surprise was not less than Wen Liang's news from the reporter.
At this time, the one covered Su Mu's face was also deeply surprised.
So Wen Liang was convinced in a moment that Su Mu was not the mastermind of the accident.
"From now on, you will immediately bring the prince and the princess and return to the sleeping place under Hubert's escort. With the surrounding of the Hanging Mountain Cavalry, no matter how much the consortiums lose their minds, they will at least not be able to directly elevate this sudden conflict to the national level."
The gentleness in front of Su Mu was not an extremely cautious politician. Just from the message of this sentence, he had already predicted the worst.
He even made the most rational judgment without hesitation:
"I will communicate with the consortium for the next thing. Before I make a real breakthrough, neither you nor the princess behind you, you cannot easily express any attitude."
Wen Liang said as he heard the news, another figure who rushed into the garden behind the official residence regardless of the obstruction of his servants.
The visitor was obviously... Hubert, the cavalry commander!
The reason why Hubert stubbornly broke in was undoubtedly that he doubted that everything was Su Mu's arrangement.
That's why I wanted to force Su Mu away from Wen Liang's anger.
However, everything in front of him was obviously contrary to Hubert's expectations. Not only did there be no conflict between Su Mu and Wen Liang, but he even passedably formed an emergency alliance in an instant.
Seeing Hubert's intrusion, Wen Liang didn't have time to blame him, but just ordered him quickly:
"You immediately escort them back to the bedtime place and directly announce to the public that His Highness the Princess was suffering from a cold and would not see any guests who came to ask for advice again."
"If you don't want the balance between the empire and the federation to be destroyed, then no matter what method you use, you must ensure that the three of them are absolutely safe."
...
The speeding Qi-powered ritual car arrogantly cut through the prosperous night of Safest City.
Under the sanitation of dozens of elite cavalrymen, they were directly in the luxurious bedrooms of the federal lawmakers.
Although Su Tong had already guessed that the incident originated from Kabat Fortress when he noticed Su Mu quietly left the banquet hall, he still inevitably entangled.
But even Su Tong did not expect that things would eventually turn into such a violent conflict.
"Who do you think killed him?"
Looking at the empty luxurious bedroom, there were cavalrymen wearing heavy armor.
Whether it was the unknown prince Su Can or Su Tong who had vague speculation, they both did not return to their bedroom, but went directly to the hall where Su Mu and Hubert were negotiating.
Seeing this, Hubert bowed and took his leave immediately.
After all, in Hubert's vision, although Su Mu is still a federal resident, even though his identity has undergone a huge change, he is still in the field of communication.
However, this pair of siblings who truly retained the emperor's bloodline made Hubert feel restrained.
And Su Mu did not raise any objection to Hubert's farewell.
After all, Su Mu was really inconvenient to Hubert for the question Su Tong asked at this time:
"First of all, at this point in time, when the consortium responded to Berg's revenge, it directly killed Berg in the military camp. Then the person who was actually committing the killing would inevitably be related to the matter of Kabat Fortress."
Su Mu's judgment was actually Su Tong's guess.
But if this guess is correct, Su Mu and others are actually facing a bigger mystery:
"But who has such strength to take Berg's life away from the crowds, and will not even be left behind by the entire camp."
"And why would a person with such strength kill such a stupid regional commander in such a big fanfare?"
This paradoxical mystery, not to mention Su Mu and Su Tong were hard to imagine, even Wen Liang felt unbelievable.
Even this is the most important reason why he believed Su Mu.
However, at this moment, Su Mu did not continue to entangle this almost unsolvable problem.
Instead, I blurted out the clue that was more important in the message:
"In the news reported to Wen Liang by the apostle, the murderer seemed to be a man in a strange mask, and also called himself: 'Dark Bard'."
"So have you heard of this so-called 'dark bard' somewhere before?"
...
However, what disappointed Su Mu was that neither Su Tong, who was always at the center of the incident, nor Su Can, who had lived in the Science Federation for several years, had heard of this strange title.
The existence called the Dark Bard seemed to be covered in darkness.
It cannot be easily noticed by any gaze.
But just as Su Mu was confused, a sudden and unexpected voice once again injected new vitality into this question that almost led to desperate situations.
Under these endless surprises, even Su Mu almost forgot:
In the bedroom where two imperial blood descendants live, there are also two other people who are regarded as escorts of the royal daughter, and are now also arranged to live in the bedroom.
The person who made a strange noise was Jiang Lan who happened to be in the sudden sanitation of the cavalry and wanted to leave the room to see what was going on.
The reason why Jiang Lan made a strange noise was also because of the key word Su Mu just mentioned... Dark Bard!
"I have heard of the legend about the Dark Bard, which has been vaguely circulating in various circles of magicians."
Jiang Lan said as she finally remembered the current identity of Su Tong brothers and sisters.
So he stopped telling in panic and stepped forward to greet him in a panic.
But the royal brothers who were extremely passive because of this obviously did not care whether Jiang Lan was respectful enough. While comforting Jiang Lan, he also asked about everything about the Dark Bard again.
As Jiang Lan came to her senses in comfort, the legend about the dark bard was gradually revealed to Su Mu and the other two:
"The dark bard is neither a single individual nor a group that exists in a certain period of time. No one knows their origins, nor does anyone know their purpose. The only thing I can be sure of is that since the earliest records of ancient books thousands of years ago, there have been dark bards carrying masks."
"There are both powerful and terrifying warriors and mysterious mages. Sometimes they turn into rebels, dominating the rise or demise of a country; sometimes they become pure perpetrators, simply violently interfering in a certain independent incident."
"They exist in every corner of history. In the official records of every major country, they are deliberately avoided. They are like sharp blades in the shadow of this world, staring at the world all the time, and never wanting to appear in people's sight."
"So according to the words I have seen from the classics, the so-called dark bards... they are almost like some secret group with a clear purpose but always rejected by the mainstream world!"
