What's it like to be surrounded by five knights who are taller and stronger than you are surrounded by armor and heavily armed?

Tess almost couldn't breathe.

She stiffened and was escorted into the knight's residence behind the church.

The Paladins dispersed, Pei Xia sat in front of her and said seriously: "Miss Tess, please be careful not to show up in the next few days, and you must not be spotted by the people here to avoid being caught up in the grass."

Tess nodded: "I understand."

Tess jumped out of the carriage and escaped while she was in custody. She kept her eyes closed when she left the underground brothel and came to the underground brothel, so she couldn't determine where the underground brothel was.

To get rid of these nasty criminals in one fell swoop, precise investigations are needed.

"Tom." Pei Xia ordered, "You go find a dress that covers your head and face. We have to make Miss Tess pretend to be the maid of the Son of the Son, so that no one will be suspicious."

"Yes, captain, I'm going now!" Tom nodded seriously.

"Jack, you and Beta are more clever. When Beta comes back, you and him will find a way to build a good relationship with the local Paladins. The task of collecting intelligence is left to you!"

"Don't worry, Captain, promise to complete the task!"

Pexia looked at Buck and Mallory again: "Buck, Mallory, you two are responsible for the safety of Miss Tess. There must be someone with Miss Tess at any time, understand?"

"clear!"

Instructing them, Pei Xia breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and prepared to find Lucifer. As Lucifer's guard knight, he should always be by his side.

But Lucifer didn't say how to arrange Tess, Pei Xia had to do it herself.

"Are you leaving?" Tess sat on the edge of the bed, her hands on her knees a little awkward.

"Yes, but don't worry, Buck and the others are very good gentlemen, and they will never hurt you." Pei Xia comforted patiently.

Lucifer couldn't see it anyway, he couldn't be jealous.

Tess bit her lower lip and her eyes slowly became firm. She nodded and said, "I will take care of myself, and you must be careful."

"Okay, I will."

After leaving here, Pei Xia went to find Lucifer, and ran into the last remaining Paladin on the road. He was in charge of taking care of the horses, so he came over later.

"Lanta, come here."

"Captain, what's the matter?"

Pei Xia leaned into his ear and said: "I entrust you with an important task. You can investigate who buys horse feed in large quantities in the city, and exclude the normal military, noble households, caravans, etc., there are abnormalities. Record it all."

"Understand the captain, I will go now!"

"By the way, it would be better if we could investigate these abnormal feed places."

"I will do my best!" Lanta patted his chest.

Pei Xia patted his shoulder with relief: "Come on!"

Tess currently identified two priests, one is the bishop of the branch church, and the other is the ordinary priest, and their names are Tess heard when she was in an underground brothel.

Tess also said that the people who go there are rich and powerful, and ordinary people can't get in, and how can these people who don't lack money and pleasure seek to wrong themselves?

They must have sat comfortably in a carriage, and once they left, they would spend a night at a leisurely pace. Dozens of horses gathered together to consume a large amount of feed. Starting from this aspect, the scope of the investigation can be reduced.

...

When Pei Xia rushed to Lucifer, Lucifer had already checked the daily affairs of the branch church. In any case, if you know in advance that the Son will come, the work on the bright side will definitely be handled beautifully.

After it was completely late, Bishop Andren stared at Lucifer and invited him to share dinner with the priests.

The son of Lucifer is getting more and more beautiful, and Andron still remembers the last time he saw him five years ago, obviously he was not as eye-catching as he is now.

He is obviously holy and pure, but he has a fascinating magic power for no reason, so that Andren, a horrible old man who loves a playful woman, can't help but sway in his face.

Lucifer showed a non-obvious, nonchalant look of disgust, and Pei Xia, who had just arrived, swooped in front of him.

"Of course, it happened that our Lord Son had been on the way for a whole day, and I hope to take a break as soon as possible after eating."

"This is natural." Andren smiled amiably, "Here is Bishop Andren, you must be a knight of Lord Son, please don't worry, we will take care of Lord Son, you can rest assured to have dinner. ."

After speaking, he yelled and called a guard over to prepare to take Pei Xia to the knight's restaurant for dinner.

"No, I am the guardian knight of Master Shengzi." Pei Xia said seriously, "I will always be by the side of Shengzi, please don't be so polite, I just have to eat with everyone."

Andren's smile can hardly be maintained, who is polite with you, you an eyesore stinky knight!

He wanted to persuade a few more words, and Lucifer said: "When I was in the main church, Pei Xia had been eating and sleeping with me. This is my guard knight."

Pei Xia: "...Uh, yes!" Male lead, male lead, what you said is a bit exaggerated.

Unexpectedly, Lucifer was so afraid of Andren, and also, Andren was such a disgusting person, who would hate anyone when he saw it.

It is a pity that they are afraid that if they are exposed immediately, there will be fish that slip through the net, so now they can only talk to the other party first.

When we arrived at the restaurant, apart from the guard knight standing guard at the door, there was only Pei Xia left. The rest are either priests or nuns who set the table.

Andren enthusiastically opened up the chair for Lucifer: "Holy"

With a squeak, Pei Xia sat down, and then helped pull away another chair beside her.

Lucifer smiled and sat down beside him. Andren's face was a little embarrassed, but his patience was good, he didn't say anything, just looked at the chair on the other side of Lucifer and was about to go over and sit down.

At this moment, Pei Xia quickly grabbed Andren's clothes and pulled down, and with a bang, the bishop was forced to sit on the chair next to Pei Xia.

Andren smiled hard and got up again without embarrassment.

He tried to lean forward or leaning back to cross Pexia and communicate with Lucifer, but this eye-catching paladin could always stop him just right.

Andren was a little angry.

In this branch church, he is the boss, and the old man who has been accustomed to being praised by everyone is the most unbearable to be resisted and contemptuous by others, so he stood up without a smile and poured two glasses of holy wine.

"Master Shengzi, in order to show my welcome to you, I will toast you! Please be sure to accept my heart!"

"In that case, I am disrespectful."

Lucifer stood up in a hurry, and was about to take the wine in Andren's hand, Pei Xia got up.

He stood up and made an exaggerated oops, and his whole body slammed into Andren and fell to the ground: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I presume that Master Master gave me another glass of wine."

Andren: "That's mine!"

Pei Xia smiled and scratched his head, pulled him up, turned his head, and confronted Lucifer who was splashed all over with holy wine.

Pei Xia: "...I didn't mean it."

Lucifer: "...I believe you."

So this dinner ended in Pei Xia's enthusiastic mess.
