Chapter 136 Undercurrent
The dark bard in Jiang Lan's mouth is more like a ghostly rumor than a reality that exists in the cracks of history.
"That is, the group called Dark Bards is not actually understood by anyone at all. And their purpose and behavior patterns are almost impossible to detect."
Su Mu finally concluded that it seemed ridiculous in his helplessness.
But if you think about it carefully, you will find that this is exactly the same as the one who killed Berg.
The man did come out of thin air and left again without leaving any more information.
The reason why he wanted to kill Berg was not only Su Tong and Su Mu could not explain it, but even Wen Liang, the administrator of Safest City, also agreed that Su Mu and others had no idea.
So when Jiang Lan's words of "dark bard" were presented little by little before Su Mu and others.
Some unanimous and determined look also instantly met between Su Mu and Su Tong.
"This is...the best excuse!"
There is no doubt that if they judged it simply from a rational point of view, it is obvious that they could not blame the so-called dark bards so easily...
However, because of this, since it is impossible to make a correct judgment from a rational point of view, such strange remarks like ghost legends can be used as an excuse.
"Although according to the gentle and kind requirements of the administrator, it is best for us to try not to communicate with anyone, and we also need to refuse all visits, so as not to leave any loopholes in others."
"However, it is obvious that if we relax our preparations because of this and fail to think of a reasonable enough excuse in advance, it will still make our situation more passive."
Su Mu said here and directly passed Su Tong who was thinking about him.
Then he took extra seriousness and explained to Jiang Lan and Prince Su Can:
"We must pretend that Berg was never aware of the killing, and we have no clue as to the murderer who killed Berg."
"The only thing we have to do now is... spread the legend of the dark bard!"
...
The dinner in the administrative residence ended with the hurried departure of the prince and daughter. In fact, it had been a full three days.
However, within these three days, the entire Safest City was shrouded in an extremely strange atmosphere.
Now, even the upper class, whose information is blocked, must have learned from various passages that Berg was killed in the storm camp.
Maybe others don’t know what identity and background Berg has.
But for the upper circle of Safest City, that was almost an open secret.
"The chairman of the Safest Business Alliance is actually Berg's biological father. Although the Business Alliance is not the dominant one, they have at least 70% of the resources of the Business Alliance."
Wen Liang's eyes were sharp, penetrating the bustling streets outside the administrative residence.
It seems that I want to see the huge shadow shrouded behind the block through the nothing unusual neighborhood.
"So, no matter how reluctant he is to accept my invitation now, I must really meet him before the conflict between the two sides breaks out."
"The servants in his residence did not receive the letter, and they sent them directly to every place he would go to on weekdays; his closest servants did not want to talk to you, so they went directly to the side branches of their family who served in the official residence."
"No matter what method you use, you must also convey the message I requested to meet to the sight of the Chairman of the Safest Business Alliance as soon as possible."
Wen Liang said, but he withdrew his gaze from the street again.
And continue to write at your desk...more invitations!
Even the chairman of the Safest Business Alliance could not ignore the invitation from the administrative residence, so the only thing he could do... was to try his best to avoid the appearance of the invitation letter.
On the other hand, as long as one of these invitations is successfully conveyed to the Chairman of the Business Alliance.
So from that moment on, it was when Wen Liang was able to really mediate.
...
However, with the huge number of invitations, they are constantly approaching the chairman of the Safest Business Alliance through various channels.
Another news, however, began to spread widely throughout Safest City.
Dark Bard... A legend that originally exists only in the words of ancient books, but now it reverberates in the streets and alleys of Safest City like some fascinating bizarre rumor.
"Have you heard that the killer who killed Berg is actually the legendary dark bard."
At a tea party held by a wealthy businessman, several rich wives who were idle were chatting.
"I heard that the so-called dark bards are actually the remains of an ancient empire. After they felt that there was no hope of restoring the country, they began to do a chivalrous manner on the mainland, specifically punishing those with despicable personalities."
The person who spoke was a young woman. She now obviously had a naive sense of justice, but in fact she also disdained people like Berg.
However, her argument undoubtedly touched some of the fears of several other rich wives.
Therefore, someone immediately made a rebuttal to the woman's remarks that matched her position:
"There is no such thing as a hero. As far as I know, the so-called dark bard is actually an institution specializing in assassination activities. As long as someone pays enough money, he can do anything crazy."
"I even heard... they had assassinated the king of the Longtuo Empire in a long time ago."
"It is precisely because they act too arrogantly that they have been jointly cleaned by all countries and completely disappeared from the open. Now they can only hide in the dark like rats crossing the street."
"And..."
There is obviously no real evidence for the remarks in this afternoon tea party.
However, humans' ability to add fuel to the fire is undoubtedly even more amazing than they imagined.
Although the source of all the information was, under Su Mu's instruction, Jiang Lan quietly disclosed the information to the servants who served "accidentally".
But when this message was conveyed layer by layer, it finally reached the mouths of every Safest resident.
But everyone swears, saying a certain one-sided part of this message, and then magnifies this one-sided part as the ultimate according to their own understanding.
So "exact" news that even Jiang Lan had never known was also circulated by word of mouth.
Whether it is about the secret of Emperor Longtuo, or the romantic fantasy of the Dark Bard himself.
All of this becomes unstoppable in the doping and contrasting of each other.
In the end, when people heard the news that Berg was killed by the dark bard, there were countless explanations that could make him logically smooth.
It seems that Berg was killed by the dark bard, which was simply destined to be for granted.
"No matter whether the so-called dark bards are knights or villains, the reason why they want to kill Berg must be related to their bigger plans."
"Although I don't know that plan, it's obvious that Berg was killed by them in the military camp. The matter is definitely not that simple."
The wife of the wealthy businessman who initiated the tea party made a qualitative summary of the gossip.
And her summary is also the conclusion that comes from the entire city of Safest.
