Chapter: 746

The Viscount’s servant realized that something was wrong.

Then the owner stuttered his words out. “I-I’m sorry. I couldn’t help it.”

“What……”

As if waiting, soldiers with swords appeared in an instant.

The swords of the soldiers are aimed at him at once.

Things progressed quickly.

The knights of the imperial palace seized the Viscount’s man and the owner of the merchant group and brought all of the materials from the merchant.

Immediately, the Viscount was also called to the Imperial Palace.

Viscount Bürgen, the Minister of Home Affairs, meets the Emperor in the presence of a number of nobles watching.

The Minister of Home Affairs listened to the explanation of the situation, pale and tired.

It was revealed that the merchant stole the gunpowder.

It was the same gunpowder that was used in the bridge accident.

And the minister’s servant went to see the merchant and was arrested.

It was a suspicious situation for anyone to see.

“It is the same material used in the bombing that happened a while ago, isn’t it?”

“No! I don’t know!” He hurriedly denied Kaizen’s cold question.

“Then why did you try to get rid of the merchant who stole the gunpowder?”

“I didn’t mean to…… Sometimes I buy some necessities there. You can tell by looking at my mansion’s list of necessities. I’ve sent someone to place an order today.” The viscount replied after a quick thought.

There is no denying that he has anything to do with the merchant.

He had contacted the merchant group owner several times and handed him money.

But it cannot be concluded that it is because of the gunpowder.

A merchant always handles a lot of stuff.

Even if the situation is discovered, it can be excused that the money was sent for other things.

From the beginning, the merchant was chosen to make excuses in this way.
