It was painful for Anthony to think about it. Although his memory was slowly recovering, he felt that his personality had not changed back to the original ruthless state, so he was also very regretful about what he had done. Now he felt that he didn't want to remember it. Unfortunately, he had no choice but to think about it now. After all, it was something that concerned the safety of the continent. However, it was really difficult for Anthony to recall. Although there were some fragments, it was difficult for him to organize them.
Li Huailin did not have the time to wait for him to organize them. He thought for a moment and said, "Your father has a lover. Your father isn't the only one who knows about it. For someone like him who leads the army all year round, would he hire someone to take care of this lover or something? For example … Wilham?"
"Huh?" Anthony was stunned when he heard that. He immediately said, "Wilham is my father's confidant. He might know about it. Dernate, hurry up and get Wilham here."
"Okay." Delnate didn't hesitate and immediately nodded before setting off.
After a short while, Delnate arrived with Wilham. As it was a confidential matter of the royal family, only Wilham came. The only people who participated in the discussion were Anthony, Sulan, Delnate, and a few trusted guards. Castellan Cadella had also asked him to leave for the time being.
"Uh … about this …" Wilham immediately knew what was going on. He was a little hesitant. "Actually, I don't know much about it."
"But you do know, right?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes." Wilham nodded. "The general did have a lover, but even I didn't know about it. I only found out about it 15 years ago. Back then, a young man came to the general and said that he was the general's son. Of course, the general didn't admit it and asked someone to send him away."
"I thought it was a little strange, so I asked the general about it at night. The general told me that he had a lover back then, but they haven't contacted each other for more than ten years. If the two of them had a child now, it might be this old," Wilham said.
"Then why didn't Father acknowledge him?" Su Lan immediately asked. "I've never heard of this."
"At that time, we hadn't verified whether the boy was the marshal's flesh and blood. The marshal also asked me to investigate the matter to see if the boy was the child of his lover. Of course, I accepted the order to investigate, but I couldn't find the young man and he never showed up again. So now …" Wilham shook his head.
"Understood." Li Huailin nodded slightly. "Judging from the current situation, this young man must be your marshal's son. He came to claim his kin but was chased away. Anthony, you found out about this, so you followed him. When you realized that he might be your brother, you killed him with a sword …"
"…" Anthony didn't say anything, nor did he deny it. Yes, in his opinion, that was the case. Wilham and Sulan also looked at Anthony, not knowing what to say at this moment.
"I'm such a jerk," Anthony said again. It wasn't the first time he said it.
"Let's not talk about whether you're a jerk or not. Judging from the current situation, your brother might still be alive and has been captured or something," Li Huailin said.
"Yes, I must save him and make it up to him," Anthony said immediately. "Huailin, what should we do?"
"What can we do now?" Li Huailin spread his hands. "By the way, Wilham, didn't you say that you've investigated him? What's his name and where he lives? "
"Yes. Although I couldn't find him, I've looked into his information. After all, he might be the marshal's flesh and blood. " Wilham nodded. "His name is Marshall. He doesn't have a surname because he's a commoner. He lives alone with his mother and has no father since he was young. I've asked the neighbors around him and they said that his father died in the war a long time ago. Nobody has seen him. His mother's name is different from the marshal's lover's name. "
"Things like names can be changed," Li Huailin said. Li Huailin said, "Since the other party knows where the Marshal is and doesn't want to meet him, it's natural for them to change their name."
"Yes, that's what I thought too." Wilham nodded. "In fact, I asked around and found out that the time when the woman appeared was around the same time when the lover left the marshal, so I was a little suspicious at that time. However, Marcial's mother had passed away at that time, and according to Marcial himself, it was only when his mother passed away that he asked him to look for his father, the marshal. That's why I couldn't find Marcial and his mother passed away, so I couldn't confirm it at all. When I reported the news to the marshal, he asked me to stop the investigation. "
"Mm." Li Huailin nodded slightly. "So, what city does he live in?"
"In Lekmsey City," Wilham said immediately.
"Where?" Li Huailin immediately turned to Ceci who was next to him because the guy knew more about geography.
"It's a small city not far from the main city." Ceci, who was on the other side, immediately answered.
"Do you want to go take a look?" Jade Emperor asked.
"Mm … Anyway, let's go take a look first." Li Huailin looked at Anthony and said, "But we won't teleport to Lekmsey City directly. Instead, we'll go through the main city because he only appeared once to look for your father. After looking for him, he disappeared, which means that you might have killed him on the way back. Let's follow the route he took and see if you can remember anything."
"Okay," Anthony said immediately.
Without further ado, they immediately teleported to the main city according to Li Huailin's plan. Then, they followed Wilham to Lekmsey City. It took more than half an hour to travel from the main city to Lekmsey City. Anthony was obviously thinking carefully along the way, but it didn't seem to be very effective. Until they saw the walls of the small city, Anthony still couldn't think of any useful information.
"This is where he used to live," Wilham said, pointing at a small house in front of them. Wilham pointed at a small house in front of them. The house looked very shabby from the outside. Just by looking at it, one could tell that Marciel must have lived in a very bad environment when he was young. However, Li Huailin was more curious about something else.
"Is no one living here now?" Li Huailin asked curiously. It was already dark. Of course, the places with people were lit up, but it was pitch-black here.
"Of course not. Didn't he say that the guy went missing?" Twinkle Orange said.
"Are you stupid? He's been missing for more than ten years. Although this house isn't very good, it's still a house. If you were a beggar and saw that there was no one living in this house, why wouldn't you go in and live there?" Li Huailin asked.
"Mm … that's true." Twinkle Orange was stunned.
"Go get someone from the side," Li Huailin said as he pointed at the house next to him. One of the guards nodded and immediately went to the house next to him to get someone. After a while, he came out with a guy who looked like a commoner. He was a little panicked because the person who caught him was a soldier. Although he didn't know who Li Huailin and the others were, he obviously knew that they were nobles, so he was very afraid.
"How long have you lived here?" Li Huailin asked directly.
"I was born here, sir," the commoner replied immediately. "More than thirty years."
"A man named Marshall used to live here …" Li Huailin said.
"Yes, I know him," the commoner replied immediately. The civilian immediately replied, "But I haven't seen him since his mother died. I think he's gone missing."
"Who lives here now?" Li Huailin asked.
"Hmm? No one. " The commoner immediately said, "Oh, I think it was bought by someone more than ten years ago. Although no one lives here, sometimes people go in. I met a few last time, but looking at them …"
"What's wrong?" Li Huailin asked.
"The people I saw were all very mysterious. They always covered their faces, and I don't think they are good people. I have a feeling that they are not easy to deal with, so I didn't do anything," the commoner said.
"If you don't think they are good people, why don't you call the city guards?" Su Lan asked.
"This … Miss, we are in the slums. If I call the city guards, I will be the one who died. Will the city guards protect a commoner like me?" the commoner immediately said, "So no one wants to be a busybody."
"Got it." Li Huailin nodded slightly. He was right. No one would care about this kind of business. He waved his hand to ask the guards to let him go, and the commoner immediately ran away.
"Sure enough, someone bought this place," Anthony said nervously. "Could it be him? Is he really not dead? Is there something wrong with my memory? "
"That's a little …" Li Huailin said as he pushed the door open. He wanted to say that it was possible, but halfway through his sentence, Li Huailin saw the situation in the house and swallowed his words. "Alright, it doesn't seem possible …"
"Hmm?" Anthony was slightly stunned. He then walked to Li Huailin's side and looked inside. He saw a shocking scene. The whole house was filled with red marks that looked like bloodstains. The most obvious one was the huge words written on the wall in front of them. "Anthony, I'll wait for you in Leronweir."
