Chapter 24: 002 Snatching Eagle's Food
A second public trial, presided over by the King's brother, the Duke of Orville, was held. In the end, Elaine was found guilty of abetting rape and murder, became the first major crime since the new King Stuart V took office, therefore all classes in society demanded a heavy sentence.
Spencer met the eyes of his daughter in the dock in panic, and Elaine was also looking at her father, and her eyes had lost their former luster, leaving them empty and obscure.
It was the first time Spencer had seen his once brilliant daughter lose all color at once, Spencer didn't want to criticize and blame his daughter anymore. He just wanted to go back to that dinner a few days ago, he thought if he had stopped it in time, there would have been no subsequent tragedy.
"Father, please believe me! I was wrongly accused!!!" Elaine cried out in Spencer's direction as she was taken away, while the anger of the people in the courtroom had boiled up and drowned out her voice.
*
Half an hour later, there were fewer and fewer homes on either side of the road, and the escorting party was almost at the border of England.
Elaine could not stop thinking about the way her father looked at her after the trial, helpless, lost in thought. That most business-minded Duke Spencer, who once held all the entertainment industries in the royal city, lost all color at once. That was the last time she saw her father.
She thought her father thought she was a murderer through and through, and he must have given up on her as a murderer's daughter. So she thought she had been abandoned by the world and was going to die a wrongful death. But even though her father didn't know the truth, he still wanted to save her.
It was getting late, the sun was sinking. The sky was gray and dreary, and it looked like snow was about to fall again.
The warden of the escort rode ahead and gave orders for the team to speed up and get to the rest house on the outskirts of town before the snow fell.
Elaine was in chains and handcuffs in the wagon, and thought back to the happy days with her father, while the tears left behind were about to soak her whole body.
Suddenly, a cry of snowy owls pierced the sky.
followed by several arrows with feathers tied to them, "Swift! shoo! Swoosh!" The arrows were shot to the center of the horse.
Under the command of the warden, the soldiers hurriedly drove their horses to stand in formation and surrounded the carriage, with their long swords drawn, they "clanged! Clang!" to defend against the feathered arrows.
"Prepare for battle !!!!"
The carriage suddenly began to lurch violently. There was no ventilation on all, so can only from the sudden bumps, one could only feel the chaos of the marching party. Inside, Elaine was completely unaware of what was happening outside, and she just kept falling over and over in fear.
The cup full of black tea on the wooden table was knocked away by her elbow, and the entire cup flew into the wall of the carriage and crashed to pieces. She clasped her hands on the wall so that she could stop flying around, but the carriage shook even more violently. In the end, her fingertips were even scraped hard by the gap and bled out.
Suddenly she felt her whole body was overturned, then heavily hit the carriage ceiling. Only a "woo", and then fainted.
"Avalanche !!!!"
The avalanche was caused by arrows coming from all directions, and soldiers shouted in fear, and even the warden drove his horse in the opposite direction.
The abandoned wagons were rushed down the hill by the snow, directly by the avalanche "boom!" with a crash, with the waves of snow rolling down the slope.
"It's crazy... ..." Jeff muttered as he stood at the top of the tree watching the rolling wagon.
He had been in ambush in these woods since eight in the morning with his trained guards, and they were now wearing pirate uniforms to disguise their identities, while last night they had picked a fresh corpse from a mass grave that resembled Elaine's body, and disfigured the stolen body, intended to be used to replace Elaine to create the illusion that the lady had committed suicide.
But Jeff didn't expect the Lancaster family to be so crazy, surprisingly so much noise to create an avalanche, is to kill all people who knew the things?
He suddenly saw a dark figure sweeping away from behind a bush in the distance, and the flash of the golden falcon crest on the man's clothes made JEFF's eyes widen at once.
[ Royal Guards?]
What the fuck, the little emperor's people also come to intervene?
But JEFF didn't have time to think more carefully, because the carriage, after sliding forty meters, stuckn to a huge cuckoo tree. Miraculously, it escaped the onslaught of the next snow flow.
JEFf stared nervously at the onrushing stream of snow, prayed in his mind that the wagon would not move again, lest he lose the rest of his bounty.
Miraculously, the trees formed a net that the wagon was securely held in place. And that's when the snow stopped.
JEFf hurriedly sent a flare in the sky, then his men jumped down from the trees on all sides and rushed to the wagon.
But to their surprise, another group of a dozen men in dark purple uniforms came out of nowhere, the two groups found each other's target was also the carriage, so the two sides fought.
[ Damn, what a day. ]
Jeff wondered, it seems that Miss Elaine has really offended a lot of people, and there are two groups of people who want him dead.
Jeff went around the back with the body double on his back sliencely and opened the door of the carriage with a click using the key he had copied in advance. Once the door was open, Elaine was lying on the wagon floor in a heap, and the red liquid continued to emerge from her head.
Jeff's heart sank to the bottom, and he hurried up to check and found that it was black tea, so he didn't delay any longer, and haphazardly pulled off Elaine's prison uniform and dressed it on the fresh body, then he put a servant's clothes on Elaine at random.
After that with his long sword he cut off Elaine's long curly inky blue hair without mercy, with a lighter to light it and extinguish it to create the illusion of being burned down, and throw it to the side ....
With a "boom", the two sides of the fight was a good fight of the two groups of people stopped their actions. At the same time to look, however, the carriage had already burst into flames.
[ Miss Elaine spontaneously combusted?]
The two sides stopped fighting and hurried to put out the fire. When the fire was completely extinguished and the door of the carriage opened, "Miss Elaine's" body had been burned to black carbon.

"You said the wagon exploded?" Orville paused with a face drinking black tea.
"Yes my lord," Lionel pulled out two clear plastic bags. One bag contained several scorched pieces of prisoner's clothing, and the other with charred BLUE hair.
"This is all Elaine's leftovers, and there's some human tissue at the scene," Orville pursed his lips satisfied, "Show the stuff to Lord Clare."
Lionel again took the things found from the scene and showed them to Clare, "Some traces of gunpowder were found in the wagon. Elaine may have ignited it herself," Lionel pulled out another bag containing gunpowder.
Clare looked at the corner of the prison uniform, and found that Elaine's number was still embroidered on it, so his expression eased a little, "Thank you both, my son and daughter-in-law have been avenged."
Regulus smiled at Clare, with teeth as white as pearls against bronze, healthy skin, "A person with an antisocial personality like Miss Elaine would have created chaos even if she had gone elsewhere. This time it just happened to work out perfectly." Randomly hahahahaha laughed brightly.
"Then since it's perfectly solved," Orville waved Lionel leave down with his things, then raised his hand and slapped it a few times, "Come on in, Janet."
Hearing the name of the person he was calling, Chad's eyes widened in surprise.
Then a woman in a dress, surrounded by servants, came in with a silvery, seductive laugh, and her scent of perfume ith a certain floral scent, if anything, was so faint people can just smell a little, very some of the meaning of the desire to return the welcome.
Regulus had seen this beauty at an underground auction in the Imperial City. She danced boldly and sexily on the auction stage, as if jumping step by step into their hearts. But in the end, this girl was bought by his good brother Orville before him. Now that he could finally see this beauty again, and he looked as if his eyes were glued to Janet's body.
Janet came to Orville's side first: "Janet greeted all the lords."
The rules and manners, the description of the posture, like a proper noble lady, while now Janet really was.
Orville stroked Janet's shapely, graceful figure, patted her upturned buttocks, raised his chin slightly, pointing to Regulus, who was sitting across the table: "Go to Lord Clare's place."
Janet smiled: "Okay."
Seeing Janet sitting next to Marquis Clare, Regulus only felt envious. And the room with a certain floral scent of perfume gradually intensified, Regulus only felt that even his bones were being soaked, so he was busy looking for a topic to talk to Janet: "I know you dance very well..."
Orville heard this and immediately picked up Regulus' words and continued, "You're right, so why don't Janet show everyone today, just in time to celebrate the fact that Lord Clare's son's enemy has finally been solved!"
Janet heard his order and did not refuse, immediately, she whispered something in the ear of the servant waiting next to her, and the servant went out immediately.
When he came back, several servants brought in a cart full of dance costumes. Janet got up, glanced at the men in the room with a wink, then moved with graceful dance steps toward the coat rack.
Then, in front of the crowd, she actually put her hand up to her collar ....
In a room of shock, Orville snuck up on the corners of his lips.
