I traveled through time and became a slave, and the noble lady was obsessed with me

Chapter 269 Back to the starting point

Seeing that they all kept silent, Chen Fan smiled disdainfully.

"The truth you are hiding is the truth about the death of the last baron."

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. There are two thousand people in Maplewood Town."

"I don't believe it. No one else knows about that matter except you."

"When I find out from others what happened, you guys just get out of here."

Hearing this direct threat, the expressions of several people changed wildly.

If you really want to say that you can completely give up this position, that would be a lie.

They are all used to relying on this status to make money in the town.

If they are beaten back to their original form, is it possible for them to make a living by working as carpenters like ordinary townspeople?

Under Chen Fan's threat, someone still relaxed, it was the slightly younger Minister of Forestry.

"Lord Baron, it seemed that he had predicted it before he died."

"He has been calling the Sheriff to step up patrols and be wary of all outsiders, especially bards!"

travelling poet!

At this moment, Chen Fan thought of the bard that Jose mentioned, the bard who brought the baron.

Unfortunately, that story is not finished.

"The Sheriff has stepped up patrols according to the Baron's arrangement, but the Baron seems to be crazy."

"He occasionally comes to our administration, but he always has to say one thing."

"If one day he dies, the murderer will be one of us!"

When he heard this, Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and looked at the four people in front of him calmly.

"Lord Chen Fan, we are really wronged!"

"That's why we haven't dared to say anything."

"If this kind of thing were heard by outsiders, wouldn't we be the innocent ones to take the blame?"

"This is the reason why we have been afraid to say it. The Knights Union has checked and the army has checked, but they can't find the reason."

"We really don't want to be involved in something like this."

The four people in front of them all spoke to each other with very sincere expressions of fear on their faces.

However, Chen Fan had a strange feeling inexplicably, but he couldn't explain it.

It was as if their reactions, and his own reactions, were like a grand performance.

Exaggerated!

Yes, these people’s reactions are a bit exaggerated!

They seemed to express their fear and fear vividly.

There's nothing wrong with this, it's just that Chen Fan is naturally a little sensitive to these feelings.

"I understand, I will not wrongly accuse a good person, nor will I let any bad person go."

"But I'm worried that the murderer hiding in the secret will attack you again."

"Let's do this. You all should take a break during this period and hide at home for a while."

With Chen Fan's comfort, they gradually felt relieved and prepared to leave.

Chen Fan didn't have enough manpower on his side, so naturally he couldn't arrange for his own people to protect them.

All we can say is that the town's original security team should send four or five people to protect them near them at all times.

After arranging the arrangements for them, Kanter hurried to the management office with a few younger brothers.

"Lord Chen Fan, what happened to my father?"

The young man probably had just received the news, and his eyes were red at this time.

Chen Fan briefly told him what had just happened.

"Kante, have you ever heard your father say these things?"

"Not at all, whether it's a baron or a viscount, my father never brings business matters home to talk about." Seeing the unconscious Jose, Kanter paced back and forth in a hurry.

"Lord Chen Fan, who did it?"

"If you dare to touch my father, I will kill him!"

Kanter's eyes were red and he looked anxious and angry.

This made Chen Fan gently pat the boy's shoulder.

"Kante, can I trust you?"

In the empty room, apart from Lilia, there were only Kanter, Chen Fan and the unconscious Jose.

"That's natural, I'm your subject!"

Seeing the other party's reaction without thinking, Chen Fan nodded.

"I suspect that there is a very dangerous person hiding in your town."

"He might be a bard!"

"This guy may have set his sights on me. Whatever I do now, he will probably be watching."

"As a local, you are usually used to running around."

"I want you to take your most trusted people and hide them in the town as a backup to support me."

"any questions!"

Seeing Chen Fan's serious expression, Kanter gritted his teeth and agreed.

This matter was not just about Chen Fan. That man dared to attack his father, which also made Kanter red-eyed.

Now I wish I could catch that mouse hiding in the dark.

Kanter came and went in a hurry.

After he left, only Chen Fan, Lilia, and the unconscious Jose were left in the room.

"Can you rest assured that you are putting your back on such a young man?"

Lilia couldn't help but feel worried. Even she felt that there seemed to be a black hand in the dark.

Chen Fan shook his head helplessly and sighed heavily.

"Julia has already told me that she also found out a lot of news in the few days she came here."

"I don't want to be involved in so many things. Who wants me to be unlucky? This is my territory and it always needs to be solved."

"But don't worry, I will arrange for someone to go back to the royal capital in the morning to find Menson for help."

"I asked him to help mobilize a team of knights. They can be here as soon as the day after tomorrow."

"We will stay put for the next two days and wait until Menson arrives with reinforcements before we go to inquire about the castle."

Chen Fan rubbed his brows, as if he was also troubled by these sudden events.

"Jose, please take care of it. He is the only one who knows best."

"If we can revive him, we can get the truth from him."

Lilia nodded, and she could only arrange it this way.

Afterwards, the remaining veterans took Jose and everyone back to the hotel.

Chen Fan also sent someone to notify several bounty hunters, asking them to come back first and temporarily cancel their plans to explore the castle.

Chen Fan was not in a hurry to go back. He took another person and walked around the town for a long time.

It seemed that he wanted to get the truth about what happened from other people in the town.

But few people could tell Chen Fan what happened back then.

It was as if someone deliberately hid all the truth.

In the afternoon, Chen Fan, who had been busy all day, took Jones and others and had no choice but to return to the hotel.

It was only after a while that Chen Fan's face became more relaxed after arriving at the hotel.
