Chapter 229 False alarm
Chapter 229: A false alarm
These, together with the news obtained by the Spider Guild in certain official channels, have finally come to a conclusion together.
The soldiers surrounding the Folits' mansion had already withdrawn, but a short battle occurred in a large business in the northwest of Matt City. After the city guards arrived, the battle sides quickly evacuated.
Afterwards, the City Guards, who were in charge of public security, did not continue to pursue the investigation. Some people nearby saw that the City Guards took away several hunting dogs from the vicinity of the battle.
With the fear of the whole family, Huigang, the girl and Yalina were calm and calm, and lived a quiet life for three days. The old baron was relieved.
There were three more people at home to have dinner, and the Folite family, which was already a little tired, was immediately stretched. Lao Folite thought that this was not a solution. At least there were still some cloths stored in that store, and it would be a supplement when it was sold cheaply.
The monk originally asked him to go and see the situation, but was stopped by the old baron. Although he knew that his son was very capable, the years of businessmen and the days of swallowing his anger in the past three years made the old man feel that it was better to have less than more things. So he sent the butler Carter to inquire.
After all, Huigang had not run a daily life for a family. Instead, Fei'er was quite smart to see the financial difficulties of her family. When the monk was ashamed to hand over the gold coins brought from Drew to the old man. The old baron was naturally happy to see these, and then stood up from the chair, saying with some anxiety and regret:
"If I had known this, I wouldn't have let Carter go. The sensation has not subsided yet. Don't be in danger."
Although the amount of gold coins brought from Drew is not large, it is enough to support the family in a simple way. After all, the money of the duke, marquis and prince of the Drew Empire is naturally extremely luxurious.
Unexpectedly, Carter did not come back at noon. Although the cook and the gardener didn't feel anything, Old Ferte began to get anxious. After knowing the whole story, Ferte's mother also complained a few times. Generally speaking, after all, why did people who have been together for so many years be sent out so recklessly?
Then he became even more anxious. The behavior of the parents and the elderly made the monk feel impatient, and he did not say hello and went straight to the street where the shop was located.
Although people come and go on the road, the monk's seemingly normal speed on the road is actually extremely fast.
So people on the street saw a young blonde walking by themselves. The speed was not fast, but often they disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Maybe it disappeared into the crowd, no one discussed this again. Soon the monk arrived at the street where the shop was located. Strangely, this place seemed much more lively than yesterday. Many people naturally remembered the young man who was almost invincible yesterday, and soon learned from the rumors that this was the scandal three years ago, oh, no, it should be the protagonist of the legend.
The descendants of the Paladin family who escaped from the Leixing Platform, the surrounding merchants came over and greeted him respectfully, regardless of whether they knew or not. The door of the cloth shop where Salson was was closed and asked the people next to him. Only then did they realize that after leaving yesterday, the carriage collapsed, and the store closed, and no one was seen entering and leaving this morning.
Huigang also asked whether the old butler came or not, and everyone said they didn't see it.
Then the monk became a little anxious and walked to the door of his store. He found that the store and surroundings, which were still old and messy, were all sorted out and refreshed. It was obvious that someone had cleaned it carefully.
I couldn't help but wonder. It was not the time to focus on these things. I wanted to find the whole city again, but I didn't care about the shocking world. The gathering of true energy on my legs and feet gently tapped the ground. It seemed as if it was flying up on the ground and ran.
After seeing yesterday's dignified power, these people present saw this kind of martial arts that they had almost never seen in their entire lives. They were extremely lucky. At least there will be a lot of topics of conversation in the future in their boring life.
At this time, it was a time when the crowds were surging and bustling. There were a lot of people on the street, but the monk who was moving quickly did not leaps on the roof and kept serializing among the crowd, but he would not bump into it. Those people were just surprised to see a figure whizzing by his side.
But when I was watching intently, I noticed nothing except a breeze and the strangers around me.
After searching four streets, Huigang found that his method was really clumsy, so he had to give up and return home. The old baron who was waiting anxiously at home complained a few words first, and then asked:
"How about it, Carter, have you found it?"
The voice trembled slightly, obviously because of worry in his heart. The monk shook his head a little discouraged. When the old baron saw this response, he smashed his hand with his fist and said with regret:
"We should wait a few more days, and the money you have in your hands can support you for a while."
The monk thought about it, but didn't know what to say at this time. After a while, he spoke:
"If Carter had anything to do, I would have slaughtered those who violated our family."
The old baron's complaint stopped abruptly and looked at his son beside him in shock. Huigang's expression did not change much. He had already determined in his heart that it was probably the big fat man who was yesterday. He was going to check the truth tonight. Old Ferte shook his head slowly. It seemed that his child had changed a lot, after all, he had not seen him for three years.
When it was time for dinner, the cook asked casually, but he didn't take it seriously. But the old baron didn't know what to say. Although there was a good meat on the dinner table because of the monk's gold coins, the monk still ate the salted vegetables with bread. The surface was as deep as water, thinking that if Carter had not come back after dinner, someone in Matt City would be punished.
Soon, after dinner was finished in a muffled voice, Lao Folite and Huigang walked into the yard together. The old baron sighed and said to the monk:
"Do you still remember that Old Carter was also a very arrogant person in the past. No one expected that after our family fell, he would have stayed in our house and refused to leave."
After saying that, he sighed again, obviously with infinite emotion.
Just when the atmosphere was a little sad, a carriage rumbling outside the yard and heard a loud voice outside:
"It doesn't matter. I've watched our young master grow up since I was a child. He still listens to what I said. Don't worry!"
The father and son in the yard looked at each other strangely. They all heard that this was the voice of the butler Carter, and their worries flashed.
I heard that there was not only one person coming off the carriage outside, but there were also a few old housekeepers who were supporting the frivolous steps, and said with a smile:
"The misunderstandings that happened yesterday should be asked to take care of the noble Baron and the Knights. Please say a few more good things."
With the old butler's vague promise and frivolous footsteps, the door creaked open. Although the distance was not close, a smell of alcohol still came to his face. Old Carter may not have drunk so much pleasure for a long time. You must know that the wine in this world is not a very cheap consumer product.
Those who sent the housekeeper back did not follow the steps. Huigang did not pay attention to who was on the carriage outside, and was too lazy to pay attention to it.
Old Carter walked into the door, and almost fell down there with his feet. He was not drunk, but he was really overexcited. Seeing two people standing opposite him, although it was dark and it was not clear, he still barely straightened up. The old baron said:
"Carter, you've been worried about us all day and see what you're like now!"
The master and servant have shared hardships in recent years, and there is no need to pay so much attention to it. They seem to be close friends when they get along with each other, but they feel a little angry in their tone just now. Although they are dizzy in their minds, butler Carter wakes up a little bit of silence.
Rubbing his face hard, the old man, who is not young, recovered his energy and said:
"This morning, I went out carefully and caught up with me before I could walk too far. I started to panic, thinking that those people from yesterday came to trouble us. I was so scared that I was so scared that these people were particularly respectful and invited me to the Rose Hotel, saying that yesterday's incident was a misunderstanding, and I hoped that the mistake could be made up..."
Old Carter, who was not fully awake, spoke in a mess, but he understood that the people who had a conflict yesterday felt particularly frightened by what they did, hoping that they could apologize if they had the opportunity, etc.
Old Carter's alcohol had already come up, and was helped by the gardener who rushed over to the residence. The old baron thought for a long time but couldn't figure out why. Instead, Huigang was very free and easy and said to the old man calmly:
"Since there is nothing, let's take a break sooner."
