Chapter 1051: The Secret Agent of the Security Bureau
In Aundair, a place that cannot be detected by any exploration magic.
The flames on the torches flickered, bringing a tiny .
Rather than saying that the fire dispelled the darkness, it made the darkness even more terrifying.
In this secret room, a heavy and steady voice slowly spoke out a piece of information: "Jones Fredrica, codenamed Sparrow, is a special agent assigned by the Security Bureau. His superior is Vulture Cade."
In the secret room, a figure was tied to a chair, with his whole body restrained by restraining force, and the area around the chair was filled with absolutely deadly explosives. As long as the other party tried to escape, it would explode immediately and the underground secret room would all become part of the earth.
From this, we can see how much the owner of this voice fears the [prisoners] who are bound here.
"What is your purpose for sneaking into the Morris family?!"
Jones raised her eyelids and immediately felt a sharp pain in her body. Her body was already covered with dense scars, and the maid outfit she was wearing had become a piece of rag, barely covering the bloody wounds.
The torture inflicted on her body was not an unbearable pain for her. She was very clear about one thing, that is, when the other party called out her identity, her life would be safe.
At least for a short period of time.
She looked at him and couldn't help but smile. The curl of her lips brought a piercing pain again. "Count Maurice, you already have a guess, why are you asking me?"
Before Count Morris, whose face suddenly turned pale and blue, could speak, Jones continued, "I'm not surprised that you could call out my code name and my boss. Even if you called out my real name, I would have thought that Vulture had betrayed me."
"But you can even say the name of the vulture, which means one thing - you have an informant in the Security Bureau."
After saying this, a gust of wind came from nowhere and suppressed the flame on the torch to the lowest level. The flame made the dark shadow behind Jones look like a predator watching the world from the underworld, ready to spread its wings of death.
"You want to plant a spy in the Security Bureau, Count Morris, do you want to die?"
Count Morris shuddered violently, as if it was him, not Jones, who was tied to the chair and being tried.
"The royal family has planted a spy from the Security Bureau in my manor. I am the absolute victim in this matter no matter what. The Morris family is definitely in the right. Even if the Morris family violated some business rules, it is not the turn of the Security Bureau's hounds to sneak into my manor."
When uttering the first half of the sentence, Count Maurice spoke sternly, as if reason, justice and the whole world were behind him, but the second half of the sentence obviously made his momentum plummet.
He also discovered this, so he used more intense words to express his anger, "This violates the agreement between the royal family and the nobles. I will chop off your head in front of the royal family and make Her Majesty the Queen apologize in person in the palace!"
Although the words were harsh, there wasn't much in them that could be considered a threat.
He knew very well what the three words "Security Bureau" stood for. It was a secret force directly under the Queen Mishas that was re-established after the fall of "Fairhaven".
They are responsible to only two people, one of whom is Queen Mishas.
"Well, dear Lord Maurice, since your estate has not deducted my wages for the past two months, I will tell you something so that you can be prepared."
Jones did not threaten the regular meeting with Earl Morris at all. She sat up straight and said, "Soon, your butler will come back to you and tell you that someone with a much higher rank than you, most likely the leader of your small group, is coming to visit you."
"You will be called outside this underground secret room, and you will meet that person in the corridor. First, he will congratulate you on everything you have done. Congratulations on discovering some small activities of Her Majesty the Queen, which gave the nobles a better way to limit the Queen's power. You have made the country better and prevented power from being overly concentrated in one person. You will be rewarded and even have several great nobles write a letter jointly requesting the promotion of your title."
"Then he will tell you, I need to be released. You may object , and you may even use all means to threaten me, but in the end, I will be released."
"And I will bring a group of people from the Security Bureau with me in one day, maybe two days, and kick open your door. I will show you an order signed by the director of the Security Bureau and ask you to cooperate with our inquiry."
"The topics of inquiry will be the bloody sacrifice rituals evident in the mines of the Soliyue Ruins, the process of the artificial sinking of the Seranis family fleet, and the status of your butler's followers among the cultists."
"Of course you can destroy the evidence and deny it. But guess how much strong evidence I have in my possession for me to tell you this?"
As soon as Jones finished speaking, Count Morris's face was filled with murderous intent that could no longer be concealed. It was obvious that the other party had dug out his deepest secret.
The weapon has been drawn in the hand of Count Morris. In the next second, the wounded member of the Security Bureau will die silently in this underground secret room, just like a rat.
But at this time, Jones spoke again, "Your Excellency, you may think that Her Majesty the Queen sent me here, but on the contrary, Her Majesty the Queen is not aware of my actions here. This is a mission issued by the Director himself, and you should know who the Director is responsible to."
The Director of the Security Bureau [Loni Zoe] and the Security Bureau under her name only need to be responsible to two people in the entire Aundair.
One is Her Majesty Queen Mishas, and the other...
"The Duke?"
Although the name was not mentioned directly, the only person in the aristocratic circle who could be called the Duke was Mo Cheng.
A person who hardly appears in aristocratic social circles and appears in public even less frequently than Her Majesty the Queen.
But one thing that cannot be denied is that the Dragon Duke possesses power that is comparable to or even greater than that of Her Majesty the Queen.
Even though this has not yet manifested itself, the nobles all know that it is only a matter of time.
"If you let me go, you will be questioned a day later. If you kill me, the Security Bureau's [handling team] will come."
"Since this mission involves His Excellency the Duke, I highly suspect that what will come is dragon fire falling from the sky, turning the Morris family into ashes."
Jones' words continued to bring fear to Count Morris, while also provoking his murderous intent.
But soon, a smile appeared on Jones ' face, "We are finally here."
