Working Prophet

Chapter 91 Trap

"The Knight of Trinidad had not responded to Ilea's stepmother Vanessa's call to participate in the siege of Teacup Castle before, but this does not completely eliminate his suspicion."

Li Yu continued, "I once suspected that this was a good show that he and Vanessa put on together just in case. If Vanessa failed to take the Teacup Castle, then Trinidad could Earn Ilea's trust, and lurk beside Ilea as Vanessa's secret agent.

"And this can also explain why when Trinidad left the castle, the spy never appeared again... But we all know what happened later. The strange movements of those lizard people were true. The Trinidad knights came before The castle is indeed for help, not for anything else.

"It was only after that night that I focused my suspicion on you, and once I accepted the assumption that you were an insider, I found more doubts about you.

"First of all, the time we met was coincidental. It happened to be before the team of mercenaries hired by Vanessa found Ilea and me. At that time, we were in the wilderness. Logically speaking, the probability of encountering other people was very small, let alone A master like you.

"And I think about everything that happened that day. After I dealt with the two of them, Honey Bear seemed to have the idea of ​​​​making peace with us, but you didn't even give him a chance to speak, so you just killed him directly. The people under your command then completely angered the honey bear, and finally you killed all the remaining people in one go.

"Of course, considering the situation at that time, I can also praise you for your keenness in seizing the opportunity to win and taking decisive action. However, the two people I left behind to ask questions were no longer alive until we arrived in the green field. I woke up...

"I felt a little strange at that time. I thought I was too harsh. Now I think it must have been you. From that time on, you have already started to instigate civil strife in the Arias family."

"These are just your guesses," Jude said.

“Yes, these are all my speculations, and I don’t have any substantial evidence on hand.

"I need to do something to force you to reveal your true identity, so before I left last time, I made a promise to Ilea in front of everyone, saying that I would find the spy within three days."

"I did get nervous when I heard what you said." Jude said.

"But it's not enough." Li Yu said, "I watched the videos of the past two days after I came back, and you still didn't make any moves. You were surprisingly calm."

"Without this composure, I wouldn't have been able to survive until now as a descendant of the Enriquez family." Jude grinned.

"So I decided to push you again. During lunch, I gave you a wink and asked you to come to my room."

Jude also knew what happened next. He followed Li Yu's words and said, "You lied to me and said that you had found the spy. That person is Alfred Knight's retinue Thomas, a very surprising name."

"Because this is the only way to explain why I came to you instead of someone else. You appear calm on the surface, but you must be ecstatic in your heart."

"We quickly negotiated the price. I wanted fifteen gold coins, and you generously mentioned twenty, and you were also willing to pay half in advance. If I had known that this money was used to buy my life, I should have Ask for a little more.”

Jude smiled self-deprecatingly, "My head can be exchanged for a hundred gold coins no matter what. Selling ten of them to you is really a loss. It is the most losing business I have ever made."

"You may not believe it," Li Yu said, "I actually hope you didn't take action against Thomas in the wine cellar just now."

"How is that possible? The trap you specially set is just waiting for me to jump into it. Although I don't know why you insist that Thomas is an inside agent, as long as I accidentally 'miss' when arresting him, I will chop him down." If he dies, this matter will be completely confirmed.

"And if Alfred comes to settle accounts with me afterwards, I can still confess you and transfer his anger to you, the main messenger. How could I let go of such a good opportunity to completely clear away the suspicion. "

Jude then said with emotion, "I heard about the things you did in Rock Snow City, and I also saw your various methods along the way, so I have been trying to avoid conflict with you as much as possible, but I didn't expect that I ended up falling." It’s in your hands.”

After thinking for a while, he added, "I now know how you caught me, but I still don't understand how you saw through my identity?"

"Because of the dragon in the swamp." Li Yu didn't hide anything. "I asked Fausto and Ona about some things related to dragons. They told me that there was once a family that had a close relationship with dragons. There were even rumors. Their rise is due to the help of a dragon.

"And when that family established a foothold in the Western Territory, in order to commemorate that dragon, they also named their family castle Dragon Flame Castle. As the power of that family continued to grow, Dragon Flame Castle also became Dragon Flame City. , and then they became the masters of the entire Western Territory."

Li Yu looked at Jude, "The reason why you tried your best to sneak into Teacup Castle and create chaos in the Arias family was to protect the dragon. You didn't want the Arias family to allocate their energy to deal with it."

"Hey, you are so smart, why can't you see that I was also framed?" Jude sighed.

"You said you were not an inside agent?" Ilea asked, "Someone framed you, who was it?"

"I am indeed an inside agent. I admit that I had a purpose in approaching you from the beginning. I killed your stepmother's people and I also placed that note, but... that thing in the swamp has nothing to do with me.

"If I had known about the existence of that thing from the beginning, no matter how much money I was paid, I would never have let myself get involved in this bullshit." Jude said, "I swear."

"Aren't you approaching me to avenge your family? Or wait until that dragon grows up and tame it so that it can help you retake the Western Territory." Miss Rabbit looked up and down at the half-faced man in front of her with suspicious eyes.

"Why do you all think you are so smart that I care so much about my shit identity? It has been more than nine hundred years since the Enriquez family was destroyed, and I don't care at all about what happened nine hundred years ago.

"From the day I was born, this cursed bloodline has brought me endless troubles and made it impossible for me to live like a normal person. It has done me no good.

"As for me appearing here because someone found me and gave me a large amount of money that I couldn't refuse, and asked me to find a way to lurk around you and cause some trouble for the Arias family, I agreed. How simple."

"Who found you?"

"How much did he pay you?"

Li Yu and Ilea asked almost at the same time.

"…………"

"It was a middleman who found me. His nickname is Gray Swan. I have only dealt with that guy a few times, but the guy's reputation is pretty good. He paid me one hundred and sixty gold coins, and also told me Promise, if I can make the Arias family mess up, he will pay me another three hundred gold coins, which is a number I cannot refuse." Jude said.
