The Divine Hunter

  Chapter 262 In the Garden

  The bright sun of late autumn sprinkled from the patio in the center of La Varetti Castle, reflecting the fragrant and colorful rose, begonia, camellia...

A woman stands on the path between the flower gardens, a light green open-chested long skirt supports a graceful figure, and there is a babbling mahogany stroller at her feet, and a watering bottle in her hand is hitting the flowers. Water was poured in the basin.

"That is Mrs. Luisa." At the entrance of the garden, the maid Sylvia pointed to the distance and explained to the two witch hunters in a low voice, "Because of the young master's affairs, the wife has been living a lot during this time. Depressed... I go to the garden every day to relax."

  "Will going in now disturb Madam to rest?" Roy asked.

   "Two masters, I have to ask my wife about this," Sylvia apologized, "but I think Madam is concerned about the safety of the young master and should be willing to cooperate with the investigation."

  The demon hunter nodded, watched the maid enter the garden center, and then confessed a few words to the members of the Sea Scorpion Acrobatic Troupe beside him, asking them to wait outside the garden. After all, the three Evelyn were still accomplices in the murder of Arian in name, and Luisa, the victim's mother, would naturally not agree with them.

  ……

"Snee!" Roy rubbed his nose and glanced over the two women in the distance. From his perspective, he could only see the back of the Baroness, but only from the back, the undulating curve of the woman's waist and hips, The beautiful swan-like neck can also prove that she is an extremely outstanding beauty.

"I just gave birth to a girl more than a month ago... the figure has recovered so quickly, she is so talented." Roy admired slightly. In his inherent impression, most women no matter how beautiful they were when they were young, once they gave birth. The beauty will be marked with a big discount.

  The body quickly loses shape, and the waist is bloated like a bucket is the most normal change, especially the country women. After giving birth, who will deliberately maintain the figure to please their mud-legged husband who goes to the field every day?

   "I don't know how this noble lady maintains it?"

"Little devil, don't forget that she is still the mother of a teenage boy..." The bald man added in a low voice, a strange color flashed in his eyes, "I'm less than 30 years old this year...27 years old? So inferred. Mrs. Luisa gave birth to her first child when she was seventeen or eighteen, at a tender and beautiful age..."

   Resso's voice paused, and Sylvia walked back towards them and stretched out her hand.

   "Two masters, madam, please come over."

  ……

  Roy looked around. There were no less than ten kinds of flowers planted in the garden, such as hibiscus and chrysanthemum, but the most were white jasmine, which accounted for more than half.

"Jasmine, a symbol of loyal love. Is this the old baron deliberately planting this?" Roy's mouth twitched and suddenly felt quite ironic. The age difference between the baron and his wife is too great, and the relationship between old couples and young wives is not just money. And these flowers can be maintained.

  The old husband raised a grassland after all.

"These flowers..." Without taking a few steps, his nose moved. The rich scent at the gate of the garden was already impressive enough. Now near the center of the garden, the ubiquitous floral scent became extremely strong, like sea water. Wrap them tightly in the same way.

  Roy and Reso's sense of smell is far more acute than ordinary people's smell is almost entirely occupied by the fragrance of flowers, and there is no room for other smells.

  No matter what, as long as it is excessive, it will cause disaster, and the fragrance of flowers is no exception. Relatively speaking, the demon hunters are even more willing to smell moderate flesh and blood, which allows them to better maintain a sharp and clear mind.

  They frowned at the same time, until the elegant woman turned around at them, and the displeasure was replaced by surprise.

I have to say that God is kind to the lady in front of me. At the age of twenty-eight, most white women will inevitably have wrinkles on their bodies, but the baroness's skin is still smooth and delicate in a healthy wheat color by the sun. , Milk and silk are average.

She has no rings or earrings and other accessories. She has a simple black hair tied in the back of her head. Her brown eyes are as bright as sunshine, and her vermilion lips are like newly-peeled water chestnuts. The front of her chest is opened very low, obviously. With a fascinating scenery, coupled with her slender waist and slender thighs, she is undoubtedly a **** stunner.

  "9-point charm..." Roy's own 8 charm suddenly pales in comparison.

  From observation, the baroness does not have traces of magical carvings like the sorcerer's body, except for the high charm and scary, other attributes are not outstanding.

  This is a true natural beauty,

   "No wonder that fascinated by that."

"Master Demon Hunter, I am Marie Luisa La Varetti, the wife of Baron Baron. Thank you very much for accepting this commission. The child is skinny and skinny. If it weren't for the secret method of a witch doctor, He can't hold on anymore."

Mrs.    looked tired, her face was sad, and her voice was a bit hoarse, but her gentle attitude made people feel like a spring breeze. She did not have the superior and aggressive oppression of her husband. She stretched out her hand towards the two of them and made a drooping pose.

  The two took her fingertips and kissed the back of her hand lightly.

"Dear Madam, you don't have to worry too much. A person who is upright and kind like Master Arian will be blessed by the gods. Maybe this is just a test, so Master Arian can grow into a better knight in the future. "

"I hope so. But my poor little Ariane is only eleven years old. He shouldn't have suffered this kind of sin!" Luisa thought of her unconscious son, her charming face was full of sorrow, her eyes flushed slightly, her eyes were slightly red. Unconsciously turned to his side.

  There is a baby carriage there. The baby girl in the baby carriage is wrapped in a petite baby girl. The sun shines on her fleshy pink face, with red lips and white teeth, which is really cute.

  At this moment, the little guy is holding his slender and transparent pinky, his bright black eyes are spinning between Madame Luisa and the Demon Hunter, with a touch of innocence and curiosity.

  The baroness squeezed the little guy's cheek softly, and then took a deep breath, calming down her anxiety.

"Aneth La Varetti?" Roy admired the warm scene in front of her. His heart moved. This baby girl is not easy. If she follows the normal trajectory and undergoes a series of changes, she will eventually become the only legal Temalia. Heir.

  Of course, no one knows her future except Roy.

"Two masters, Sylvia said that you have done a lot of investigations," the baroness pursed her red lips, her charming face showed unstoppable eagerness, her tone became gloomy, "then... is there any What clue did you find, where did the murderer who killed Little Arian hide?"

"Don't worry, Madam. We have a preliminary judgment about Master Arian’s accident, such as—" Roy carefully observed Luisa’s expression," Master Arian and Amos were at the time. There is a high possibility that he is practicing magic in this garden... the murderer hid aside and suddenly launched an attack. He fell into a coma and was transferred to the servant's room."

"Any criminal act cannot be done perfectly..." Roy said, staring at the dazed baroness. "Perhaps the criminal thought that the scene was handled perfectly, but in fact would always stay in a corner that he couldn't notice. There are more or less traces; it may be difficult for ordinary people to find these traces, but it is not a problem for the demon hunter."

"Then I hope to hear the good news as soon as possible..." the baroness said sincerely, "to free Arian from the pain. As for now," she held the handle of the stroller, "I won't stay here to interfere. Your investigation, it's time to send Aneth to visit his brother."

"The treatment of the witch doctor today is almost over," Luisa finally said to Roy and Resso before turning to leave the garden, "You can also go see Arian later, Sylvia will lead the way. ."

   "No problem, ma'am."

  ……

   "Ms. Silvia." Watching the baroness leave, Roy exclaimed at the maid beside him, "Mrs. Luisa is really a good mother..."

"The madam has always loved her sons and daughters. It is no exaggeration to say that the young master and the young lady are the meat of the lady," Sylvia said with a sad expression. I don’t sleep well, I don’t have any appetite every day."

   "Even if the complexion is not good during this period, the lady's beauty is still not reduced," Roy asked, "Sylvia, at the dinner that day, the lady must be the focus of the whole party, right?"

Sylvia nodded heavily, and then seemed to think of something interesting, and she laughed while covering her red lips, "The two masters were not there at the time. They didn't see the master's bragging power, so I can't wait to inform all the guests that this is him. Madam, gave him a pair of lovely children..."

   "Such a beautiful and elegant wife is indeed worth showing off," Roy said enviously, "but Miss Aneth was just born at that time, and she also attended the dinner party?"

   "The master and the wife took the young lady around for a while, and then asked Nai's mother to take the young lady back to the room to take care of her, for fear of disturbing her."

   "Ms. Luisa can rest assured?" Roy asked casually, "Sure she will go back to see Miss Aneth?"

   "Yes, Madam won't let her newborn daughter stay out of sight for too long. Although she was busy and exhausted, she was too busy to go back to the bedroom and take a look."

   "There are very few dedicated mothers among the nobles...well, not much gossip, it's time to do business." The two demon hunters got the answer they wanted, exchanged glances, and began to search the entire garden.

  ……

"Snee!" An hour later, two witch hunters covered in mud were sitting opposite each other against the two pillars around the garden. Among them, the bald man folded his thick palms and crushed a jasmine flower with jealous eyes. Look at the whole garden.

  They have searched the garden meticulously. Although they can't shovel the flowers off and turn them upside down, they have searched all the places they should look for. Apart from the various flowers, there are only mud and water, a few bees and mice.

  The two became so embarrassed as a farmer, and they got nothing.

"In my opinion, even if the hapless Amos had an accident in the garden, was killed, and bleeds... the bloodstain would have been dealt with by the murderer." Reso rubbed the bridge of the tall nose vigorously, and the rubbed nose turned red. , Slightly swollen, "With the interference of the rich floral fragrance in this yard, it is difficult for us to find clues."

   Reso stood up abruptly and punched the pillar hard.

  Roy glanced at the clusters of colorful flowers in the courtyard, a little helpless, but when his eyes turned to the pillar in front of the bald man, he suddenly condensed.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Reso, I seem to have found something, you move a few steps aside," Roy walked to the big man in three steps, and hurriedly touched the blue-painted pillar in the other's puzzled eyes. There was an extremely light red mark the size of a fingernail.

  It looks like a child’s hand-painted graffiti, or a natural red stained by a flower squeeze.

  The two leaned forward to the pillar, carefully rubbing, observing, moving their noses, and there was a faint smell of blood, which sometimes disappeared under the cover of the rich fragrance of flowers.

  Only the demon hunter with a super-smelling sense can gain insight into its essence——

   "Bloodstains!" The bald man took a deep breath, pacing around the pillars like a torch, "Sure enough, there was a murder in the garden that night, maybe this area is the first scene."

  "The identity of the victim?" Dark gold's pupils gleamed, Roy pondered for a moment, and an answer came out in his mind-the missing Quinte performer Amos.

  There seemed to be a picture before his eyes—the garden under the moonlit night. The Quint performer Amos was suddenly attacked by a murderer and was seriously injured and dying. While struggling, he accidentally touched the column in front of the garden and left this blood mark.

   "I don't rule out another possibility, this is a kind of reminder, he left it on purpose!"

The eyes of the two men moved upward along the blood stains, until they reached the ceiling of the corridor around the garden. On the side of the ceiling protruding outward, in the direction of the pillars, there is a row of inward eaves corners, and the upper side of the eaves corners is hidden. In the shadows, people can't really see it.

  The next moment, Reso’s huge body was agile like a gecko, swam against the pillar, blinked up to the 4-meter-high pillar, and then quickly drew his muscular arm to the corner of the eaves, and then landed steadily.

  When he spread out his callous palm, he added a square piece of cardboard on the back with complicated and delicate patterns painted on the back.

   "What is it? A Gwent card." The bald man raised his eyebrows, thoughtfully.

   "That fellow Amos is not stupid, he has left us a clue! Only the Quint performer can get the card **** to that place without knowing it... even the murderer and the servant of the castle have not been discovered!"

  Roy said, flipping the Gwent card in the palm of the big man. The card is a character he is very familiar with——

"this is……"

"A member of the Northern Territory deck, the king of Tamoria, Foltest..." There was a sudden flash in Roy's eyes, "This king has another identity. In the castle night banquet that day, come Master Testaf, the breathable garden!"
