Murder
After confirming that he had the support of Duke Kruje, Ravel didn't relax.
In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he still needed to make a lot of preparations. After signing the contract with Kruje, he left with Lacey.
Kruje also didn't go to the ball downstairs.
He sat in the study and quietly looked at the old photos. His face revealed a gratified and emotional expression as he muttered, "Rovino, I really hope that I can avenge you in my lifetime …"
"I think, this is something that will never happen."
A slightly raised male voice came from behind. Kruje's slender eyes suddenly widened. When he turned his head, a gun was aimed at his heart.
The silenced gun emitted white smoke. Kruje barely dodged the fatal blow, but was hit in the shoulder.
Phillips whistled. He wasn't angry because Kruje dodged the fatal blow. His expression was calm as he stretched out his hand and pulled Eve into his arms. He leaned close to her and said with a pampering tone, "Eve, your shooting skills have deteriorated a lot. How do you want me to punish you later, hmm?"
Eve secretly gritted her teeth.
This shameless guy actually put the blame on her. If he didn't bump into her hand, how could she make a mistake?
This was clearly an excuse to "punish" her.
Eve wanted to shoot again, but the fat Kruje's body suddenly became as light as a swallow. He nimbly turned around and pressed the alarm on the table. But to his surprise, he didn't hear the sound he expected.
His eyes widened in astonishment. He heard Phillips say, "Duke, did you forget that you blocked all the signals in the room?"
Kruje turned his head and saw Phillips playing with his remote control. At this moment, he was like a hunter teasing his prey. He enjoyed the other party's struggle and then slowly forced the other party into a desperate situation.
"You really are a high-ranking member of the J Organisation!"
Kruje knew that he was going to die, so he calmed down.
Phillips raised his eyebrows. "Duke, you do have a deep understanding of our organization. If it weren't for the amendment of the bill, we might not have noticed the existence of an old fox like you. You pretended to be wise to protect yourself, but you've been secretly investigating us. How despicable."
Hearing the word "despicable" from Phillips's mouth, there was always a sense of dissonance.
Kruje sneered, "Compared to rats like you who only dare to act in the dark, I'm much more noble."
"Ha, then how do you feel now that you're going to die in our Swordsmen?"
"Shame!"
Kruje lightly spat out the word.
While he was talking to Phillips, his hand was quietly groping for something behind his back.
Phillips's narrowed his eyes, he said, he coldly said, "If you give me the information, I'll let your family."
"In your dreams!"
Kruje sneered Kruje.
Even if he handed over the information, based on J Organization's ruthless methods, they definitely wouldn't let his family off.
Phillips's eyes darkened, his angelic face showing a sinister expression, he coldly said, "Since the Duke doesn't know how to cooperate, then please die in shame, Eve."
Eve was about to make a move.
"Wait!"
Kruje suddenly shouted.
Phillips immediately stopped Eve, raised his eyebrows, "Duke, you changed your mind?"
But at that moment, Kruje's eyes flashed, as if he was possessed by the God of War. He suddenly stood up, took out the pocket-sized pistol hidden behind his back and fired at Phillips. Unfortunately, Phillips actually dodged the bullet, and Kruje turned the gun back to aim at Eve.
Kruje's speed was very fast, but he was still not faster than Phillips. Several afterimages appeared on his body. Before Kruje could even open fire, the gun that Phillips had snatched from Eve's hand struck his neck artery. The powerful impact caused Kruje to fall down with a loud bang.
Blood gushed out, he pressed on his aorta and looked at Phillips fiercely, "Your conspiracy will not succeed! Once I die, the news about the J Organisation will be spread all over the country tomorrow, and one day, you will be torn apart by the angry citizens … "
Phillips's eyes were sinister.
He calmly listened to Kruje's curse, then shot him again.
Kruje's voice abruptly stopped.
Blood splashed on his leather shoes, making him feel disgusted. He slightly raised his chin and coldly said, "Don't talk so much when you're about to die."
He looked at Eve, laughed coldly, and said, "When Kruje pointed the gun at me, didn't you think of covering for me? Don't you think you're too heartless? "
When Eve was pointed at with a gun, Phillips blocked the bullet for her.
Eve's face was expressionless, using a formal tone, she said, "Because I knew you would be safe."
Being able to reach the Red J rank, their physical fitness and adaptability would only be one level higher than the Blue J rank members. Don't look at how young Phillips is, his body contains a terrifying combat power that is unimaginable.
"Ah."
Phillips sneered.
This answer didn't satisfy him.
He walked forward, pinched Eve's chin, and fiercely kissed her lips with an aura that could engulf everything. Facing his forceful plundering, Eve was already numb from the humiliation at the beginning. She only frowned, but did not resist.
To be able to kiss so unscrupulously in this situation, only a pervert like Phillips could do it.
The tip of her tongue was bitten by his sharp teeth, and the taste of blood immediately filled her mouth.
But this did not hinder Phillips's actions at all.
He forcefully hugged Eve's waist, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.
After a long time.
Phillips reluctantly left her, with a wicked smile on his face, he whispered in her ear, "I'll slowly punish you when we get back."
Eve's face finally changed.
Phillips was very satisfied with her expression, and then began to rummage through the room.
Although he didn't get any information about the J Organization from Kruje's mouth, it wasn't like he didn't have a way. Although it was a little troublesome, Phillips relied on his excellent detection ability to find the secret room in Kruje's study.
He took all the information about the J Organisation, then put in the prepared information, closed the door of the secret room, and walked out.
At this time, the sound of footsteps could be heard outside the room.
Phillips estimated the time and smiled, "Fish is finally back."
He said to Eve, "Let's go."
… …
Halfway through the journey, Lacey's face was very bad, and she finally could not help but say to Ravel, "Your Highness, there is something I must tell you!"
"What?" Ravel raised his eyebrows.
Lacey hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she said, "Your Highness, do you already know about the J Organisation?"
Ravel's face flashed with a strange color.
He did not say anything, and continued to listen to Lacey.
"I'm sorry for hiding it from you, but I don't plan to hide it anymore. I am a member of the J Organisation, and was sent to secretly monitor your actions, and wait for an opportunity to take control of your power."
"Oh?"
Ravel made a single sound.
"Your Highness, listen to me, the J Organisation's purpose is to control the entire royal family, and even the J Country by controlling you. They originally did not intend to directly interfere with the election between you, but I don't know why, but now they are directly involved. If my prediction is not wrong, they have already decided to make Lilith the next Queen!"
"Oh, do you really think that our Charlie royal family will be controlled by an unknown organization?"
Ravel smiled contemptuously, and he reached out his hand. Lacey subconsciously avoided it, but there was only so much space in the car, and she had nowhere to hide. The warm hand caressed her cheek, and she heard Ravel say, "I also have something to hide from you. I already know that you are a member of the J Organisation. Isabelle was also killed by you, right?"
Lacey looked at Ravel in astonishment, and a trace of fear appeared in her eyes. In the end, she accepted her fate and said, "A life for a life. When this is over, I will go to the law …"
Ravel suddenly pressed her into his arms.
His gaze was deep and complicated, and he stared in a certain direction, and said calmly, "If it were anyone else, I would definitely avenge Isabelle, but this person is you, and I can't do it."
Lacey's body stiffened.
Ravel asked again, "Lacey, I love you. Even if I have to become enemies with my brothers, and be despised by Isabelle in the future, I will not do anything to you, so you don't have to blame yourself. I will bear all the sins."
Lacey's voice was a little hoarse, "Your Highness, you don't have to do this to me …"
"I want to hear you call me Ravel."
"…"
"I've already confessed to you like this, don't you feel touched?" Ravel turned Lacey's body and looked at her. A smile flashed in his eyes, and he said patiently, "Lacey, call me Ravel, okay?"
His voice seemed to have a special magic power.
Lacey opened her mouth.
"Ravel …"
"Good girl."
Ravel touched Lacey's head.
Lacey blushed.
But she suddenly thought of something and shook her head fiercely, "No, Your Highness … Ravel, now is not the time to talk about this! We should immediately inform Duke Kruje and ask him to be wary of Phillips! "
"Why?"
Ravel frowned.
"Phillips is a senior member of the J Organisation. If he appears at the ball, it will definitely not be a good thing! If he knows about your alliance with Duke Kruje, Duke Kruje will be in a very dangerous situation. "
"I have a secret discussion with Duke Kruje. He can't know about this."
"No! You underestimate that man too much. Phillips is very difficult to deal with, and he is my direct superior. According to the J Organisation's principle of classification, he may be more terrifying than anyone we have met. Although I don't know how he obtained this information, I have a feeling that he already knows about your secret discussion tonight! "
Lacey's fear of Phillips still lingered.
Ravel saw Lacey's serious and pale face. Although he felt that she was overthinking the situation, he still decided to call to ask about the situation.
But after dialing Duke Kruje's number for a long time, he only got a reply: "The number you have dialed is not within the service area."
Ravel guessed that Kruje should still be in his study, and the study should be in a signal blocking state.
Probably because of Lacey's influence, he faintly felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart. He ordered the driver: "Turn back to Duke Kruje's residence."
When Ravel returned to Duke Kruje's residence, the ball was still in progress.
In order not to cause any unnecessary commotion, he only brought Lacey with him.
But when he arrived, Duke Kruje's study was locked from the inside. Even when he knocked on the door, no one responded.
"Do you have the key to the study?" Ravel asked the butler beside him.
