    In the end, Norris and others still got the reward from Lucis, and the big fish was sent back to the palace for further processing.

    The bonfire was lit, and barbecue preparations began in the temporary camp.

    Sathyas are very good at grilling, even Lucis is no exception. The way they handle their prey in the wild is also very simple. After cleaning the prey, marinate them for a period of time, and then wear them on the branches and lean around the campfire.Plug it in a circle, turn it over from time to time, let the campfire slowly cook the skewers thoroughly.

    The weather is still hot at this time, and the temperature around the campfire is very high. Even if an ice basin is prepared, the heat cannot be reduced. However, Lucis, who has always been afraid of heat, grilled the meat himself, and it was the wild buffalo he hunted.Ella's attempts to help were rejected.

    "Your Highness, please let Your Majesty come down."

    Tetis quietly pulled Ayla aside, and the excitement she had been filled with since seeing Ayla accepting His Majesty's prey finally came out at this moment: "Do you know what it means for you to accept Your Majesty's prey?"

    Ella was silent for a moment, then nodded.

    She has made up for various customs in Sathya. Unmarried men give unmarried girls the prey they hunted by themselves.It also means tacitly acquiescing to the other party's pursuit. After that, the man will send several meaningful gifts one after another. As long as the woman accepts them, they will basically be successful.

    ——This kind of thing is the same everywhere.

    Tetis didn't hide her joy, and said in a brisk tone: "Then you should know that after you accept His Majesty's prey, His Majesty has the right to roast the prey for you. This is His Majesty's importance to you."

    Ella looked back at Lucis who was grilling the meat. His movements were skillful, and he would occasionally sprinkle some prepared spices on top of the barbecue when he turned it over. The aroma of barbecue wafted in the air.

    His grilling technique is really good. The meat of the roasted wild buffalo meat is firm, chewy and tender. The rich spices completely cover up the unique fishy smell of game, and it is full of fragrance in one bite.

    Reciprocity, after Lucis roasted the buffalo meat, Ella also roasted some in return for him, and this time Lucis did not refuse her to do it again.

    The attendants who were guarding them all quietly exited the shed tacitly and gave them the space.

    The two chatted around a bonfire, grilling meat, eating a bunch of barbecued meat from time to time, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

    The kitchen knows Ella's preferences very well, and has prepared a lot of vegetables suitable for grilling for her, as well as fruit drinks to relieve boredom. This BBQ-like grilling method makes Ella unknowingly eat more than usualA little more, and her flat belly bulged out. Fortunately, the top she was wearing was loose enough to not be seen.

    Of course, they couldn't finish eating such a large cow. Lucis only used the most tender part of the meat, and the rest would be eaten.

    On the return journey, the waterway they took was not yet dark, but the temperature had slowly dropped. The evening wind blew across the water, refreshing and pleasant, and took away the smoke and smoke from their bodies.

    Back in the palace, the two separated in front of the bedroom, and Ella ordered hot water to wash as soon as she came back.

    The slave brought several vats of hot water, and a basket of flower petals.

    A basket of flower petals was sprinkled in the tub, and the hot water infused the fragrance of the flowers.

    Ella, who was soaking in hot water, picked up a petal and smelled it: "The scent seems a little different today?"

    The maids who were helping her wash her hair didn't smell any difference. Tetis looked at the petals in the water and found that some of the petals inside were not the ones Ella usually used: "Maybe it's because the types of petals used today are a bit different.Is it a lot?"

    The female nobles of Sathya like to bathe with scented flower petals, in order to leave the fragrance of flowers on the body.

    Following the custom, of course Ella also likes flower petal baths, but she always prefers light scents, and the petals she uses are also good for the skin, so it is easy to smell a slight change in the smell.

    Ella sniffed it carefully, but didn't find any special smell in the petals, so she didn't pay attention to it anymore.

    After taking a bath, the sky outside finally darkened. Ella, who put on her nightgown, wiped her hair with a cloth towel and went to the balcony to dry her hair.

    Although the next door is Lucis' bedroom, in fact, out of safety considerations, the king's bedroom and other bedrooms are separated by a room door used as a storage room, and the distance from the balcony is also very far.It is absolutely impossible to get to the next door without borrowing tools from the balcony, but with the current lighting tools, at night, you can only see some faint fires coming from the next door, and you can't see the rest clearly.

    "Your Highness, it's time to rest."

    Ella's hair was almost dry at the moment, and she handed the cloth towel to the maid.

    "Go and rest, too."

    Ella never kept a vigil at night, so the maids put her to bed, put down the anti-mosquito curtains, and finally extinguished the brazier for lighting in the room. After making sure everything was all right, they quietly exited the bedroom.

    The brazier was extinguished, but the room was not completely dark. The moonlight came in from the balcony. Although it could only illuminate a part of the area, it still made the things in the room faintly visible.

    After a day of wind and sun outside, Ella relaxed and fell asleep soon.

    There was only a slight sound of breathing in the door of the room.

    As the night darkened, the light and shadow of the moonlight quietly changed on the ground of the sleeping hall.

    In the darkness, some rustling sounds suddenly came from the sleeping hall.

    The sound was like the sound of some kind of object rubbing against the ground, the movement was so small that it was almost hard to hear it.

    At least Ella, who was sleeping soundly, didn't notice that there was an unfriendly guest in her bedroom at all.

    The visitor in the dark crawled out from the corner, crawled across the bright ground in front of the balcony, and revealed the visitor's true appearance.

    It was a cobra as thick as a child's arm.

    The front part of the cobra's body stood upright, spitting out snake letters, the snake body meandered forward, and swam silently to the side of the bed, and then climbed onto the bed along the foot of the bed.

    When the cobra crawled up the bed and moved towards Ella who was sleeping inside, Ella seemed to realize something in her sleep, her eyelids trembled, but she didn't wake up immediately.

    The cobra got into the gauze curtain and climbed up the thin quilt. The slight friction sound disappeared, but the vibration from the quilt finally woke Ella up.

    When Ella opened her eyes, she saw a shadow not far from her. She was so scared that she dared not move. Fortunately, this was the case, otherwise the sudden movement might cause the cobra to attack.

    But her sudden opening of her eyes obviously alarmed the cobra, and the cobra stopped in place, as if observing whether it was going to attack.

    When Ella finally saw clearly what the black shadow was, her breathing became chaotic for several beats.

    Although she has an antidote in her hand, she will not die if she is bitten by a snake, but the pain will still hurt.

    She tentatively sent out a greeting: "Mr. Snake, good evening?"

    The cobra, who was still poking his head out to spit out snake letters, paused: "Huh? Are you talking to me?"

    Ella breathed a sigh of relief, she was afraid of encountering an animal that could not communicate, which often meant that the other party was extremely dangerous.

    At the same time, she also realized that she had made a mistake. It was a female cobra instead of Mr. Snake.

    "Yes, I was talking to you, I'm sorry I called you wrong just now, should I call you Miss Snake or Lady Snake?"

    "Oh, you're so polite. I like the title Mrs. Snake. I have a lot of babies."

    "Okay, Mrs. Snake, nice to meet you."

    Ella carefully sat up while observing the cobra by the moonlight.

    The cobra didn't attack her, but continued to say with great interest: "You are the first human being who can communicate with me. You are much smarter than others. Unlike you, they don't understand snakes at all."

    Ella's heart moved, and she followed Mrs. Cobra's words and asked, "Has Miss Snake met anyone else?"

    The cobra has a good impression of Ella. It can feel her nervousness, and it retreats a little considerately, then coils up its body, and lifts the front of its body to look at her.

    "Of course, I was raised by humans."

    Raised by humans?

    Ayla immediately realizes that Cobra's presence here was no accident, it was a conspiracy.

    She touched her ring, took out a piece of dried meat that she had received a long time ago, and carefully handed it to Cobra: "Then why is Mrs. Snake here?"

    "Oh, thank you, I'm just hungry." The cobra swallowed the finger-thick jerky in one gulp.

    Ella looked at its size and took out several pieces of jerky.

    The cobra ate all the jerky, and it became difficult to even lift up a piece of its belly, so it spread it directly on the quilt.

    It said lazily: "What did you ask me just now? Oh, why am I here, right? I have to think about it."

    Ella waited for a while before hearing what had happened from the cobra's mouth.

    According to it, the human who raised it brought it.

    The other party didn't put it directly on the door of this room. The cobra originally slept in the door of the next room. When it woke up, it smelled a familiar smell, so it crawled here to prepare for food.

    After speaking, it shook its head: "I don't know why I slept so deeply this time, I'm still a little confused now."

    Ella guessed that it was probably not asleep but stunned or something.

    She asked, "What's the familiar smell you're talking about?"

    "A special smell, my owner will smear this smell on the prey every time for me to find, so after smelling the smell, I thought it was my prey here."

    Ella thought of the different fragrance of petals in the tub when she was taking a bath tonight, and secretly thought that she was not cautious enough. She just made sure that the petals were not poisonous and didn't care, but she forgot that the fact that the petals were not poisonous didn't mean there was no problem.

    "So ma'am, do you remember where your breeder lives?"

    "Then I don't know, I've never left my lair, and this is the first time I've come out."

    ·····

    Mrs. Cobra knew that Ella wanted to find her owner, so she told her: "But I remember his appearance and smell. If you want to find him, I can help you identify him. Of course, in return, you will be responsible for raising me in the future."

    Lady Snake is a domesticated snake and has been raised by humans since it was hatched, but it doesn't mean it doesn't know how dangerous the wild is. Its owner will catch some of the same kind from the wild from time to time, and it can also learn something from them.The thing is, it is very clear that if it is allowed to forage for food in the wild, it will most likely not be able to survive.

    It is not difficult for Ella to raise a snake, even if it is a very poisonous cobra, as long as it does not hurt people, it can be raised, and even if she cannot raise it, Lucis can find a suitable snake breeder if she wants to come to Lucis.

    So she readily agreed to Cobra's request.

    But there is one more thing that makes Ella more concerned: "Mrs. Snake, you said that you were next door, is this here?"

    She pointed to the wall next to the bed. Ella's bed was against the wall, and the other side of the wall was her storage room.

    "No, I came from the other side."

    The cobra raised its tail and pointed to the wall on the other side.

    That's the king's storeroom.

    Ella's eyebrows sank, and it seemed that this matter was more complicated than she thought.

    "Are you the only lady here today? Are there any other snakes there?"

    The cobra yawned lazily: "Yes, but I killed it."

    Ella almost jumped out of bed when she heard the first half of the sentence, but the words behind the cobra stopped her.

    "Bite to death?"

    "Yeah, I was so sleepy that I thought it was food for me, so I bit it, but it was bigger than me, I couldn't eat it, and it smelled food, so I came to you.”

    Ella hurriedly asked, "Is there anything else besides that snake?"

    Mrs. Snake replied with certainty: "No, I don't smell any other snakes."

    Ella got off the bed, picked up one side of the cloak and put it on herself, walked to the brazier, picked up one side of the flint and hit it a few times to light the brazier, and the room door was brighter.

    Then she walked to the location that Cobra said, which is the corner where Ella takes a bath every day. Because the wall on one side is covered by a gauze curtain and the decorations placed there, it is not obvious that there is any problem with the wall, but Ella opened it.Bending over the curtain to examine it carefully, he saw a hole hidden in a corner.

    The palace is built with large stones. The adhesive used for the door between the stones is somewhat similar to the original version of earth method cement. The main components are clay and some sticky substances. At this time, the adhesive used for the door between the two stones in the cornerA very small hole was dug out, and you couldn't see it unless you looked carefully. Even if someone found it, they would think it was a mouse hole.

    She straightened up and turned her head to look at Mrs. Snake, who was still lying on the bed and staring at her with black eyes: "Madam, is there any other hole in the door of the next room? Like this one."

    "I didn't notice, but there should be."

    "Why do you say that?"

    "When I was there, I could smell food on both sides, but the smell on your side is stronger, so I came here."

    If there is no hole, even a snake can't smell such a small smell through a thick wall.

    Ella looked back at the corner of the wall. She always bathed in this corner. It was inevitable that some water would fall on the ground. The special smell that attracted snakes was added to the petals used for bathing. The bath water naturally incorporated this smell.No wonder Mrs. Snake felt that the smell here was stronger and was attracted to it.

    "Ma'am, I'm going to visit the next door now, do you want to come with me?"

    "Of course, I don't want to stay here and be beaten to death by other humans."

    The IQ of snakes is not high among animals, but Mrs. Snake is obviously not stupid. Humans are not friendly to poisonous snakes. It is too dangerous to stay here. Naturally, it is safest to follow the new owner.

    It twisted and swam out of the bed with its overfed body, crawled in front of Ella, and wrapped it around her arm when Ella knelt down and stretched out her hand. In the end, it probably felt that the temperature on Ella's body was very comfortable.And put his head on her shoulders.

    Ella knew that going out with her current appearance would probably scare the soldiers guarding outside, but the scares were enough tonight, and they shouldn't care a little more.

    I guess so.

    The door of the dormitory is two doors on the left and right. Ella deliberately made a sound by the door before pushing one of them open.

    When the door was pushed open, the soldiers guarding outside immediately turned their heads to look this way.

    Ayla has a guard team, and they will take turns guarding Ayla, but the guards outside the bedroom are actually in charge of other soldiers. Her bedroom is next to the king's bedroom, and the two are located in the same corridor. The corridor isIt is closed, and only two ends can enter. There is a team of soldiers guarding each side. At the same time, there are four other soldiers standing guard at the entrance of the two sleeping halls, which are heavily guarded.

    Because of these soldiers, Ella's guard team will only have one guard in charge of night watch every night, mainly responsible for following the guards when Ella leaves the dormitory, but so far they have never seen Ella leave the dormitory after resting at night.

    They all knew that Her Highness the Princess was different from other nobles. She didn't like night entertainment and went to bed early every day.

    Today was the first time they saw Ella open the door at night.

    The guard in charge of night watch tonight, Amu, saluted and asked, "Your Highness, what are your orders?"

    "Something happened." Ella rarely looked serious. "Snakes entered the storage room of His Majesty next door. Go to His Majesty's side to check the situation."

    There are snakes?The faces of the soldiers all changed when they heard this.

    "Your Highness, how do you know that the snake entered the next door?"

    It's not that they want to question the princess's words, but the storage room next door has no windows and can only be entered through the door. They can also see the door of the storage room if they guard here. It is very clear whether there is a snake entering.

    And even if it got into the snake, the princess in her bedroom shouldn't know it.

    "Because a snake got into my side too, and it crawled over from the next door."

    Ella opened the door that had only been opened a crack before, fully exposing herself to the soldiers, and naturally also exposed the Snake Lady on her arm.

    Seriously, Mrs. Snake is a beautiful cobra. Its scales are bright olive green, but the neck that rises below the snout is white.The door between the scales at the bottom section also has white lines, which makes it look more elegant and delicate than other cobras, and it is an elegant snake lady.

    But the soldiers could not appreciate its beauty, in their eyes, it was just a dangerous poisonous snake.

    "Your Highness!"

    Everyone suddenly turned pale with fright, and their faces turned pale with fright.

    "Your Highness, please don't move."

    Amu held a knife in his hand and tried to get close to Ella. Cold sweat broke out on his nervous forehead. It was just a poisonous snake that he wanted to deal with very easily, but now this snake is wrapped around the princess and may attack her at any time, Eminem is not confident that he can save the princess before it bites.

    Everyone didn't dare to breathe, they held their breath and watched Eminem try to rescue him.

    The appearance of the cobra is so characteristic, they recognized this poisonous and aggressive snake at a glance, and they only felt a burst of panic in their hearts, not only fearing that something might happen to the princess, but also worrying about their own lives.

    If something happened to the princess, they would all be buried with her. Even if the princess survived, it would be their dereliction of duty to let such a big poisonous snake enter the princess' bedroom.

    Their nervousness also affected the cobra. The latter, which had been lazily spread on Ella's shoulders, also supported the snake's head at this time, and the skin folds of its neck swelled, and it let out a menacing whimper towards the crowd.

    "Don't be nervous, it won't attack me."

    Before the two sides became more hostile, Ella spoke out to appease everyone, and at the same time reached out and touched Mrs. Snake's head. While appeasing it, she was also proving to the soldiers that she was indeed not in danger.

    She whispered to Lady Snake, "Don't worry, Lady Snake, I won't let them attack you."

    As a result, everyone saw that the cobra, which had been making threatening behaviors from time to time, quickly calmed down under the princess's touch, and then lay on the princess's shoulder again.

    This scene is really a test of courage, but Sathya also has a snake dancer. Although I am surprised that the princess can tame the poisonous snake, the most important thing now is the safety of your majesty.

    Ella also reminded them: "There is a hole in the wall of my bedroom next to His Majesty's storage room, and this snake came in from there. You'd better go check the next door now to see if there are any snakes."

    In fact, she didn't need to remind her, the palace was in the same corridor as her bedroom, and the soldiers in front of the palace had already noticed something was wrong when there was such a big commotion in her place, and they had already gone to inform Lucis.

    However, some soldiers listened to Ella's words and immediately reported the matter, while the remaining four remained guarding Ella.

    Amu glanced at the poisonous snake. Even though he had seen that it had no intention of attacking, he still couldn't rest assured: "Your Highness, why don't you give it to me."

    Ella shook her head: "It might attack you, so I'll take it with me."

    She won't be attacked because of her own animal affinity. If it were someone else, Mrs. Snake might not be so cooperative.

    Eminem had no choice but to remain vigilant all the time.

    The remaining three soldiers looked at each other and one of them said: "Your Highness, there may be danger in the bedroom, please allow us to go in and search."

    Ella stepped aside to let them in, and reminded: "There is a hole in the corner of the wall on the left. Someone probably dug it out on purpose. You can see if there are such holes in other places."

    The soldiers nodded, indicating that they would check carefully.

    Not long after they stepped into the dormitory, Lu Xisi came out of his dormitory with someone.

    The soldier who reported at the beginning didn't hear the conversation on Ayla's side, but only saw the poisonous snake wrapped around Ayla's body, so Lucis, who received the report, only heard that Ayla was wrapped around a poisonous snake, and fell asleep.He grabbed his weapon and rushed out, and then saw Ella standing in the corridor with the cobra wrapped around her arm.

    ·····

    At this time, in the eyes of Lucis, Ella was almost on the verge of death. He ran towards Ella with a dark face, and then stopped at a distance that would not disturb the cobra.

    Fortunately, although the poisonous snake hid on Ayla's body, it did not attack her. At this time, Ayla was still safe.

    Lu Xisi's face turned pale, and the machete in his hand pointed forward, staring closely at the cobra, as long as he found an opportunity, he would cut off the snake's head and fly it away.

    It was risky, but Lucis believed he could save her before the snake bit its jaws.

    The murderous intent on Lucis was too obvious. Seeing that the situation was wrong, Ella quickly turned her body to block Mrs. Snake, and at the same time stretched out her hand to hold Mrs. Snake, who was startled by Lucis's momentum, to prevent her from raising her head.Sith said: "Your Majesty, I'm fine, it won't attack me."

    Lucis was taken aback by her action of protecting the snake, and seeing that she held the snake's head down and the snake didn't attack her, his face finally turned dark.

    He didn't take back the knife, but the killing intent on his body dropped. He frowned and looked at Ella: "What's going on?"

    Ella briefly explained what happened tonight, and of course concealed her relationship with Mrs. Snake.

    When Lucis heard that someone was playing tricks in his storage room, he immediately asked someone to open the door of the storage room to check, and also sent someone back to the palace to search for other poisonous snakes.

    At the same time, soldiers who entered Ayla's bedroom and searched came out and said they found no trace of other snakes.

    Soon, the soldiers who entered the storage room brought out a dead cobra from it.

    The cobra was much larger than Mrs. Snake, and it was most likely a male snake, but unfortunately it was bitten to death by Mrs. Snake. This was probably not thought of by the person who smuggled them in.

    At the same time, the soldiers also found two hidden wall holes in the storage room, leading to the sleeping halls of the two respectively.

    Ella followed Lucis into the storage room to look at the two wall holes. At this time, she still had a fearsome cobra wrapped around her body.This is a good move, so Ella obediently stood away from others, especially Lucis, and never let Mrs. Snake have a chance to get close to him, so as not to torture everyone's nerves.

    This is just a palace, so there are not many things in this storage room. It mainly stores the clothing and jewelry that Lucis wears every day, and important items that represent identity, such as the crown and scepter, are stored in the king's palace for his convenience.It is also safer to use.

    The wall holes in the storage room were dug very concealed, one on the left and one on the right behind the cabinets for storing clothes. It was impossible to find the tricks behind the cabinets from the outside, but after knowing that there was a problem, they were quickly found.out.

    At this time, the cabinet was moved away, exposing the hole in the wall behind.

    All the braziers were lit, and the door of the room was brightly lit. Ella could tell at a glance that the hole in the wall leading to the king's bedroom was smaller than the one leading to her bedroom. With the size of two snakes, the dead cobra could notIt may be able to get into Ella's bedroom, so the person who released the snake should have chosen Lucis as its target.

    Soldiers checked the condition of the two holes, and the results were soon available.

    "These two holes should have been dug at different times. The hole leading to His Majesty's bedroom was dug earlier than the hole leading to His Majesty's bedroom. Judging from the traces of the latter, the snake hole on His Majesty's side is probablyIt was just dug in two days."

    And the dead snake was found under the wardrobe on this wall near the palace.

    Everyone gasped.

    Obviously, the poisonous snake was prepared for Lucis at the beginning, and for some unknown reason, before the action, the mastermind selected Ella as the target of poisoning.

    It is conceivable that if Mrs. Snake hadn't killed another snake and it chose to go to Ira's side, Lucis would probably be attacked by a cobra in his sleep. He might be able to spot and avoid it vigilantly, butPossibility of being accidentally bitten.

    And Ella found more, Mrs. Snake told her that there was the smell of it and another snake in a stack of clothes in the open wardrobe. Ella speculated that they should be smuggled in hidden in the clothes.

    Lu Xisi's face darkened, and he ordered: "Immediately arrest everyone who has entered here, and find out who did it."

    As soon as he said this, Ella clearly felt that the atmosphere around her had changed, and many people showed panic and even trembled.

    This is the king's storage room. Most of the people who can enter and stay in the door for a long time are his attendants. Under the order of Lucis, these people, no matter whether they are suspected or not, will all be imprisoned and undergo severe torture.torture.

    This was not the first time. Every time Lucis was assassinated, there would always be a bloodbath, and the first to be unlucky must be the attendants around him.

    And killing the king by poisoning is tantamount to a serious crime on the same level as treason.

    But most of them are innocent.

    Ella thought for a while, then lowered her voice and asked Cobra: "Mrs. Snake, do you know who brought you in?"

    "I was sleeping soundly at that time, and I didn't even know who brought me here, but if humans have touched me, I will leave a smell on them, and I can smell it within a short time."

    Only they knew the conversation between Ella and the snake, but the entire storage room was silent at this moment. Although her whisper was so soft that others could not hear clearly, they could still find that she had spoken.

    Lucis turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"

    Ella thought for a while, and told Lucis: "Madam Snake has a very good sense of smell. If someone has touched it, it should be able to smell it. Your Majesty, why don't you try to call everyone who has entered the storage room today and let the snake smell it?"Madame admits."

    "Madame Snake?"

    "The snake's name, it's a pretty lady, isn't it?"

    Ella touched Mrs. Snake, who touched her palm affectionately.

    Lucis looked at her deeply, with inexplicable complex emotions in his eyes: "You are very popular with animals."

    Ella smiled at him, not denying it, but said, "I like them too."

    Lucis turned his head and asked the soldiers to find out all the people who had entered the storage room recently and take them to the main hall.

    At the same time, Ella's maids also rushed over.

    They who had rested heard that there was a snake in Ella's bedroom and almost passed out. When they rushed over, they were frightened by the snake on Ella's body, and their legs were so weak that they dared not approach.

    Ella didn't make things difficult for them, she comforted them a few meters away, and followed Lucis to the main hall.

    When Tetis heard what had happened from Eminem, she was only glad that she had already been transferred to Ella's side by His Majesty, otherwise she, who was in charge of keeping His Majesty's clothes, would never have escaped this incident.

    It was already late at this time, but the palace that should have been immersed in it was lit up everywhere. The big event of the king's assassination was enough to wake up the whole palace. Although they didn't know what happened, there were soldiers searching everywhere, and some people directlywas taken away.

    Even though they all wanted to know what happened, no one dared to go over to find out the situation. At this time, if they behaved a little strangely, they might be taken away by the soldiers. They dared not risk their lives.

    Soon, those who had entered and exited the storage room in the past few days were brought into the main hall. Among them, those who frequently entered and exited were the most suspected.It is easy to make holes in stones, but it also takes time, and it is impossible for the door to stay in the storage room for a long time, so it can only be made by someone digging a little bit every time.

    And it was obvious that there was not only one person who did this. The attendants were not allowed to stay in the storage room for a long time, and they were not allowed to enter alone to avoid being guarded and stolen, so it could only be a gang crime.

    The people who were brought stood in several rows. At first glance, there were no less than twenty or thirty people, and most of them were female slaves in charge of washing. Most of these people had only sent washed clothes to the storage room, and most of them wereBeing affected by innocence, but no one will sympathize with these poor people. If they are taken away for interrogation, their thin bodies will not be able to support them to leave the gate of the prison.

    All the people who were brought were in panic and fear, and some even didn't know what happened, but this didn't prevent them from thinking about bad things.

    Seeing this scene, Tetis was once again thankful that she was no longer serving His Majesty.

    When everyone is here, Lucis looks to Ella, who walks away from him and walks towards the suspects.

    The stunning silver-haired princess is entwined with a terrifying poisonous snake. This weird combination is too shocking to people's vision and makes people dazzled, but what makes them feel dizzy even more is that the princess is bringing the poisonous snake in front of them.

    The person standing in the front row couldn't help but retreat, and the soldier on the side pushed him back with a spear as soon as he made a move.

    The sharp spear pointed at him, and he could give him a shot at any time, and no one dared to take half a step back.

    Ayla's eyes swept over the people in the first row. This row is the most frequent people who enter the storage room, and they are all the servants who serve beside Lucis, including several of his close servants.Officer, it can be said that most of this row are acquaintances.

    Ella had agreed with Mrs. Snake before that she would pretend to control it so as not to scare people, so when she walked into those people, she held Mrs. Snake's snake head with her hands, with neither light nor heavy force.It will not make Mrs. Snake feel uncomfortable and prevent it from breaking free easily.

    Like Ella, Lucis would not keep anyone around when he was resting. The attendants didn't know what happened before, but now they saw Ella approaching with a cobra, and everyone was still frightened.

    Because everyone is afraid and nervous, but it is impossible for people to see whether there are any perpetrators among these people.

    But facial expressions can deceive people, but smell cannot deceive snakes.

    Lady Snake was held captive by Ella, Snake Letter was searching in the air, and soon, it locked on the target.

    "That person, come closer."

    Ella approached and stopped one step away from the target person according to her words, and looked at him. The reaction of the latter was the same as everyone else, staring at the cobra with a nervous expression, but probably because of the influence of Mrs. Snake, she also began to feel thatThe other party's tension was a bit unusual.

    "That's right."
