Chapter 143 Chapter 141: Headless Case (Please subscribe, please vote)
The topic got a bit stuck here!
Luo Yi invited these two here in such a hurry, wasn't it just to find some clues and identify the mastermind behind the scenes?

Although, Luo Yi thought that this was most likely done by those great nobles.

After all, he had just offended them, and these people had the ability and means.

But there are ten great noble families, so we have to make sure who did it, right?
Even though Roy believes that the Hawke and Sesbin families who jumped the most happily are the most likely to be responsible, he cannot blindly target them without evidence!
However, when this matter involved the ancient killer organization, the Witches of Mercy, Roy knew that this matter would not be easy to handle.

As for Keluoyi, if you don’t like to provoke him, he also doesn’t like to provoke you, but if people come to him, he will always feel unhappy if he doesn’t react!

Just as the atmosphere was silent, Mira Greenman walked back quickly.

Luo Yi asked: "Did you find anything?"

Mira shook her head: "Mrs. Cassidy and I have searched everywhere, but we didn't find any missing clothes or accessories."

After a pause, she continued, "Master, you should go back."

"what happened?"

"Baron Miller has arrived. It is not convenient for him to be here, so he will wait for you at 19 Lombard Street."

Luo Yi narrowed his eyes slightly: "I'll be there right away."

Having said this, Roy spoke a few more words to Douglas and Mrs. Linda, then sent them away.

They have already provided a lot of information, and the follow-up is of no use here.

Then, the police took over the battlefield, and Police Chief Weber was in charge of cleaning up the battlefield.

Theoretically, Roy should be taken to the police station for questioning. This is the procedure, but Weber didn't even mention it.

As for Gary Mills, he did not choose to leave, but followed Roy.

Luo Yi naturally knew it, but after a slight hesitation, he said nothing.

This place is naturally not far from 19 Lombard Street.

The two of them ran very fast, passing through the streets and alleys, and in just a few moments, they arrived at the doorstep.

There weren't many people here, but there was a carriage parked there with the Petrovich family emblem on it, which was extremely distinctive.

Next to the carriage stood a coachman, who stood straight with a lazy expression, but he had an iron-blooded aura that made people's hearts flutter.

Luo Yi took a look at this man and actually felt a subtle sense of threat from him, like a dormant beast.

Nowadays, the person who can make him feel threatened must be a strong person among the extraordinary people.

When the man saw Luo Yi, he nodded slightly with good manners as a greeting.

When Luo Yi saw this, he nodded in greeting, but he did not stop. Instead, he pushed the door open and entered.

In the living room.

Baron Miller had a gloomy and ugly look on his face. He held a cup of black tea in his hand, but he showed no intention of drinking it.

Until Luo Yi pushed the door open, he immediately stood up and looked at Luo Yi with a guilty look on his face.

"This time, I've implicated you!"

Luo Yi shook his head: "There is no need to say this, I chose the path and I will follow it.

I want to know now, who did this to me?"

Miller opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

Luo Yi asked: "Do you know?"

Miller shook his head and said, "I don't know, I just, just..."

"You just want to persuade me not to be impulsive and to pretend that nothing happened. After all, any of these noble families are powerful and have amazing backgrounds.

If we really confront each other, I will be in trouble and won't gain any advantage at all!"

At this point, Luo Yi paused and asked again: "Is what I said correct?"

"That's exactly what I wanted to say!"

Miller did not deny it, but he changed the subject and said, “However, you have gained the friendship of the Petrovich family.

If necessary, I will stand by your side, no matter who the enemy is?!"

Luo Yi grinned: “Your words are enough, and I know what you mean.

Don't worry, I'm not a fool. I will stay dormant when it's time to stay dormant."

"At this stage, I don't have the ability, so just remember that one day, one day, I will get my revenge!"

Luo Yi made his attitude clear, then turned around and asked, "Miller, tell me the truth, you really don't know?"

Miller's smile became even more bitter: "I really don't know!"

After a slight hesitation, he added: "But I still feel that this matter is a little strange."

"You tell me?"

"Loyi, the fights between nobles also have rules, unless it's like between the royalists and the old nobles, it's a fight to the death.

But at other times, everyone has to save face.”

“Otherwise, if you kill me and I kill you, there will be no way to end it.

Therefore, caution and restraint are principles that every noble must understand when competing with each other."

“Besides, before the shares of Northern Railway Company are settled, they still have reasons to take action.

Now, the railway has begun to be built. They just killed people to vent their anger, and they killed someone as important as you. I always feel that they would not be so stupid. "Loy also frowned and asked, "How sure are you?"

"I am just making a guess based on the code of conduct of the nobility. If you want me to be clear, I certainly can't be sure.

After all, there are always fools among the nobility."

"Is that so?!"

Luo Yi neither confirmed nor denied it, but just nodded and shook his head.

"Anyway, let's put this matter aside for now. Right now, building the railway is the most important thing."

"it is good!"

……

Although it was said to be let go, the city of Auckland still conducted very strict screening from that day on.

Although there is magic in this world, it has little to do with the police.

Therefore, the police station’s current method of catching criminals is still the simplest screening.

That is to say, all police forces are sent out to question every household. The efficiency is naturally very low, but it is effective.

Especially those old patrolmen, who have been dealing with people all their lives and have a pair of extremely shrewd eyes. With just a glance, they can tell which people are honest and which are pretending.

Of course there is an effect, especially now that Auckland has become a well-known city.

There has been a siphoning phenomenon in terms of population, with signs of a rapid increase.

Of course, not all of them are honest people. Some of those who seem insignificant are the real tough guys.

This investigation resulted in the capture of quite a few wanted criminals, which brought the public security in Auckland to a higher level.

In addition to this, Miller did not do nothing. In the name of the Petrovich family, he issued severe questions to those great nobles.

Although any one of these great nobles is more powerful than the Petrovich family.

However, on the one hand, this matter went beyond the boundaries of internal struggles among the nobility, and they were in the right!
On the other hand, Hohenzollern III did value Miller.

If a quarrel really breaks out, even they will not look good.

Therefore, Miller really dared to ask directly, but the result was both unexpected and expected.

No one admits it!

Yes, the ten great noble families vehemently denied this fact, and they all claimed that they had never done such a shameless thing.

Well, it is normal for nobles to be shameless, but since they say so on the surface, we can believe it a little bit.

Anyway, Luo Yi didn't find the specific mastermind behind the incident, and didn't even have any pointing clues.

This assassination turned into an unsolved case, which made him feel helpless.

However, as time went by, Roy also shifted his attention to other directions.

For example, Lilia Leitninger and Lien Vasquez wrote again.

The letters were naturally written by two people, but they came from the same place and crossed the Silver Sea together, so they were delivered to Luo Yi together.

This time, Lilia did not only report good news but also bad news. Instead, she gave a brief account of the situation. Combined with the supplement from the bow-wielding man, Luo Yi understood the inside story.

Lilia was not very wary of others, but Lien Vasquez was. After Lilia's father got better, he immediately found this person and told him about the situation.

This guy, who was able to take over such a large fortune, also has a ruthless personality.

After some investigation, he determined that it was his younger brother and wife who poisoned him. The two had been in collusion with each other for a long time and had also interfered with the family business.

It was even difficult to tell whether his son was his or his brother's.

This made Lilia's father very angry. He didn't know where he found the men from. Anyway, the two traitors were killed without a burial place.

The affairs of the Leitninger family have come to an end here.

But there is also a bad thing, that is, Lilia's father now expects Lilia to stay in the Tudor Empire and take charge of his own business.

In other words, Lilia's return trip will be delayed again.

This was something Luo Yi could not tolerate. He naturally did not want to be able to see or touch his girlfriend.

After thinking it over, Luo Yi started to reply.

His reply to Lilia was full of sweet words, recalling the happy times they had spent together and looking forward to a bright future.

Finally, he also moved out the magic energy machinery, and needed her help in the research and development of the high-temperature resistant materials needed for the stamping machine.

There wasn't a single word urging her to come back, but every sentence was urging her to come back.

As for the letter to Lien Vasquez, it was much shorter. Roy only made a promise that he would do whatever it took to bring Lilia back.

In the future, Luo Yi will take care of the potions, skills and equipment that Lien needs for his practice.

After sending these two letters, Luo Yi still felt that it was not safe, but since they were so far away, he had no other choice.

After this matter was over, Roy had not had two days of peace before Maruna raised another big problem that he had to pay attention to.

The railway construction of the Northern Railway Company was in full swing, but at this time, the required rails were out of supply.

And the one who failed this time was Douglas Hill.
