Chapter 40 Attacking the stronghold(1/2)
For the next time, Yarman focused on investigation.
Even arrange personnel to track all targets that are considered suspicious.
Manpower and financial resources are being consumed quickly.
It was not until the recent days that the logistics manager of the City Lord's Mansion had entered Yarman's suspicion.
The logistics manager is named ‘Barnard’. He is a middle-aged man with a mustache. He is mainly responsible for various logistics supplies in the city lord’s mansion.
We often need to count the warehouse goods, organize, count, or supplement.
According to Barnard's status in the city, he should have a relatively good life, but his place of living is on the edge of civilian areas.
This place is only separated from the refugee area by one street, and the public security and environment are very harsh.
This was also the case that attracted Yarman's attention and began to investigate this person in a special way.
"If there is no evidence, even if he really has problems, there is no way to deal with him!" Ang Lee said softly.
If you can lurk in the city lord's mansion and be a logistics supervisor, you will definitely not be an ordinary person who is easy to deal with.
Not only did he gain the trust of the city lord, he was also a person who was good at disguising himself.
If the other party is good at defending forcefully, if he cannot produce favorable evidence, he may be said to be sowed and disagreeable by the other party and will be difficult to end.
"Don't worry, I've made arrangements, just look at mine!" Yarman said confidently.
Investigating the local Blood Thorn Knights gave him an uncontrollable passion to his heart.
The childhood dream of knights has continued to grow in the past few days, making him forget that the Berenta Chamber of Commerce and Blood Thorns had cooperated.
Businessmen should remain neutral and ensure that their interests are not affected.
…………
At night, the stars shine.
The area close to the city wall is a residential area where civilians and refugees live together, with only one street between the two sides.
Public security chaos, stealing, and fighting can happen at any time.
It is hard to imagine that as the logistics manager of the City Lord's Mansion, he would choose his residence here.
As I saw it with my own eyes, Ang Lee also understood why Yarman suspected him more.
At this time, Ang Lee, Yarman and Amire were hiding in the darkness with fully armed guards.
Sewage and garbage everywhere exudes a pungent stench.
If the weather hadn't just returned to spring, they would have been covered with flies and sucked by mosquitoes and anemia.
"That building is Barnard's residence, and his bedroom is on the second floor!" Yarman said in a low voice and pointed to the building ahead.
It was a two-story building, and the orange candlelight could be seen from the windows.
"Look at that again!" Yarman pointed to the refugee area in the distance.
Ang Lee and others looked at it again and found that it was a broken tent made of canvas, which was dilapidated and the cold wind blew by.
"It's a secret passage entrance that leads directly to the interior of Barnard's room," Yarman said.
Both Ang Lee and Amire all widened their eyes and said in surprise: "Okay, Yarman, I didn't see that you are so powerful!"
"This is not difficult. I have only money and people in the investigation," Yarman said in a plain tone.
Ang Lee secretly curled his lips.
Grass!
Pretending to be a lie!
While the two were talking in a low voice, a man walked out of the dilapidated tent, looked around vigilantly, and turned around and walked into the alley without notice.
"It's him." Yarman selected the target.
According to Yarman's plan, as long as you catch one person, you will find clues about blood thorns from this person.
This can prove that the logistics supervisor is the identity of Blood Thorns, and let the city lord Carlisle send troops to encircle and suppress it.
Seeing the man go away, the few people quietly retreated and began to chase him in the direction where the man left.
In order not to be discovered, I deliberately followed a distance and left the vicinity of Barnard's residence, and then started to speed up and get closer.
The man turned left and right, and his steps began to become more and more rapid.
When he realized that he was being followed, or even surrounded and had no way to go, his face became even more gloomy.
"With so many of us, letting you escape become a joke." Yarman walked out of the shadow with a smile on his face.
The man looked at the well-equipped guards who surrounded him and felt a sank.
He squeezed out a smile and said hurriedly: "Everyone, I only have that little money here. Just take it away. Don't make things difficult for me."
As he said that, he took the purse at his waist and threw it at Yarman very happily.
The wallet fell to the ground and made a crisp sound.
Yarman did not look at the wallet on the ground, and took a step directly over and said softly: "I know you are a blood thorn man, maybe you can tell me something interesting."
Hearing the three words "Blood Thorn", the man's eyes instantly turned cold and he said, "I don't understand what you are talking about!"
"You will understand, catch the living."
At Yarman's order, the guards rushed forward and rushed towards the man.
The man was not hiding, and directly drew out his short sword and fought with the guards who rushed up.
"Solve it as soon as possible." Ang Lee said from the side.
I was afraid that the shouts of killing would attract other people's attention and cause other troubles.
Amiri seized the opportunity, tried her best to cut the battle axe from bottom to top.
Bang!
Although the man arrived with a dagger, his huge power still made him fly backwards. After hitting the wall, he felt like a deflated balloon, so soft that it was on the ground.
This time, it was a slash that made him dizzy and blood spilled out of the corners of his mouth.
He also wanted to struggle, and after several cold sharp blades were placed around his neck, he also calmed him down.
"Search it!" Yarman ordered again.
The guards began to search the man and took out all the items on his body.
In addition to the miscellaneous things, there is a wanted order with the Blood Thorn Seal, targeting a local nobleman.
The man's character tonight was to assassinate the nobleman according to the wanted order.
"With this evidence, I see how Barnard can argue." Yarman sneered.
Just finished speaking.
Another man suddenly walked out of the alley, and when he saw the scene in front of him, his expression suddenly became stunned.
Standing there was a little stunned.
Did the fighting attract nearby residents?
Come and watch the fun?
Ang Lee and others thought to themselves.
"Run quickly..." The arrested man suddenly shouted.
The person who was stunned at the entrance of the alley suddenly woke up, his expression changed, and he turned around and ran away.
Ang Lee and Yarman's hearts tightened.
This kid is also a blood thorny person.
"Chasing!"
Everyone rushed out of the alley, but in the middle of the night, there were no traces of men.
People feel cold.
It's over!
Not only was the work in vain, but if the other party recognized Yarman, it was still very likely that the Berenta Chamber of Commerce would be dragged into the water.
"There is no other way. Let's take evidence to the city lord's mansion and ask the city lord Carlisle to bring troops here. Let's go directly to Barnard's residence to catch people." Ang Lee ordered.
Yarman frowned, but there was no better way.
The news that Berenta is involved in it must not be revealed.
Two guards escorted the man and went to the city lord's mansion with the evidence found.
Ang Lee and others rushed to the residence of the logistics manager Barnard.
Outside Barnard's residence.
Ang Lee and others hid in the shadows, observing the building in front of them.
