Chapter 718: Steward

~5 min read 801 words

After all, if Qin Feng had seen that the steward had a badge on him, he wouldn't have asked like this.

Instead, he would have directly said that the steward had a badge on him and asked them to arrest the steward immediately.

Although she felt that the steward's suspicion was almost non-existent.

But since Qin Feng brought it up, Lin An would not completely not doubt the steward.

Instead, she held a certain degree of suspicion about it.

She believed that Qin Feng was not the kind of person who would shoot without a target.

What's more, this was a matter of Bibabu City, which originally had nothing to do with Qin Feng.

Helping is a favor, not helping is a duty.

He had no need to deliberately frame a person who had no intersection with him.

"I just used the Eye of Truth and didn't see any badge on him."

"So I cannot be sure whether he is a Dark Walker."

"After all, people who carry badges are not necessarily Dark Walkers; they could also be framed by others."

"And people who don't carry badges could also have put the badges in other places."

"It's just that I have almost never met the steward, and we are complete strangers."

"Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any intersection."

"But when he met me just now, the look in his eyes was full of killing intent. The kind of killing intent that wished to tear me into pieces."

"This made me feel very strange."

"During this period of time, the only intersection I have had with people in Bibabu City is related to the Dark Walkers."

"The only ones who have a reason to hate me must be other Dark Walkers who have not yet been detected."

"After all, it is precisely because of me that their companions were caught."

It was based on this consideration that Qin Feng would doubt the steward who had just shown killing intent toward him.

"If so, the steward is indeed very suspicious."

After hearing Qin Feng's reason, even Lin An, who originally trusted the steward very much, could not help but have deep doubts about him.

After all, if he were not a Dark Walker, the steward would have no reason to have any hatred toward Qin Feng.

"But the steward's status in the City Lord's Mansion is pivotal."

"Although he is not a person with an official position, and his strength is not considered the top in this mansion."

"But he manages all the big and small affairs in this mansion, and has managed the mansion very well from beginning to end."

"Everyone in the family trusts him very much, including my father."

"If we want to arrest the steward, we must produce strong evidence."

Although Lin An is willing to believe Qin Feng.

But after all, the steward's identity is special, and he is someone everyone trusts very much.

So wanting to arrest the steward still requires strong evidence to move the City Lord to arrest him directly.

Although it is said that it is better to kill by mistake than to let one go.

But because of the steward's identity and the things he usually does, the City Lord might not necessarily arrest him directly and then search.

And if one goes to talk to the City Lord about this matter without strong evidence.

It is really hard to guarantee whether the news will leak and be guarded against by the steward in advance.

"The identity badge seems to be a very important thing for every Dark Walker."

"The vast majority of them should be wearing it on their bodies."

"Even if a small number don't carry it with them, they usually put it at home, or in a place they think is very safe."

"You also said that the current steward's family has been stewards in this City Lord's Mansion for generations."

"They also rarely leave the City Lord's Mansion, so to them, the City Lord's Mansion is their home."

"So, for him, a safe place might be the City Lord's Mansion."

"So we can use the steward's room as a breakthrough point to check if there is this identity badge in his room."

Through a conversation with Lin An, Qin Feng also roughly touched on the steward's daily situation.

He found that the steward actually rarely leaves the City Lord's Mansion, not even once or twice a year.

After all, general procurement is completed by servants, and the steward is busy managing the affairs in the mansion every day; where would he have time to go out and mess around?

Therefore, Qin Feng inferred that if the steward is really a Dark Walker, then his identity badge must be hidden somewhere in this City Lord's Mansion. ===== CHAPTER 720 =====
