Volume 5 Chapter 126 - Running from the scene of the crime (1/2)

Princess Caroline talked about Xu Yi for half an hour. The motorcade was about to arrive at the Frestech Chamber of Commerce main base when they were stopped by an accident in front of them.

Seeing the special design Magic Sedan blocking the path in front and how there were two men in uniform standing by the fire red Magic Sedan, Princess Caroline and Marquis Southgate looked at each other before revealing confused looks.

This fire red Magic Sedan was the one that Seymour had purchased in Filios City.

When they set out from Black Rice City on the Black Rice Wasteland today, Seymour had followed the motorcade at first, but before reaching half way, he became impatient and drove off by himself. He sped up from time to time, wildly driving across the roads and ditching the motorcade.

Because the road from Black Rice City to the Stantine Duchy was simple, there was no need to worry about him being lost. Ading in the fact that he had practiced his driving skills in the past few days, Marquis Southgate allowed him to go on his own and didn’t want to restrain him too much.

But why was he now being blocked by someone?

Princess Caroline looked at the two young men in uniform and slightly knitted her brows, “Those two are peace officers of the Stantine Duchy, it seems like Viscount Seymour has committed a crime.”

“Peace officers?” Marquis Southgate looked at the two young men with a confused look before having the driver head over.

The motorcade stopped by Seymour’s fire red Magic Sedan. Seymour, who had been sitting inside with a look of disdain, quickly opened the door and passed by the two peace officers to come over.

“Uncle Dayolen, these two fellows dared to stop my car! I must teach them a lesson!”

Marquis Southgate’s expression sunk slightly. His unkind gaze looked at him before looking at Princess Caroline with a bit of inquiry in his eyes.

Princess Caroline was silent for a bit before giving a nod, “Lord Marquis, let me handle this.”

“Alright.”

Princess Caroline came out of the Magic Sedan and walked over to the two peace officers.

The two peace officers looked a bit angry, but seeing Princess Caroline come over, they were instantly stunned by her appearance.

“Two peace officers, hello.” Princess Caroline revealed a sweet smile before pointing at Seymour behind her and asking, “Can I ask why you stopped my friend over there? Did he commit some crime?”

The two peace officers were stunned by Princess Caroline’s appearance, but once they heard her question, they came back to their senses. The slightly chubby officer gave a cough and calmed down before saying with a serious look, “This miss, your friend didn’t follow the laws of driving Magic Sedans and hit a medium public transport Magic Car. It caused the Magic Car to fall off the side of the road and several people were injured. After this accident, your friend didn’t wait for processing and directly escaped. According to the laws, we must take him back and investigate him.”

“He escaped from a traffic accident?” Princess Caroline deeply knitted her brows. She turned to look at Seymour and Marquis Southgate with a difficult look.

Marquis Southgate saw the look on her face and came over.

“What happened?”

Marquis Southgate had a high position, so he naturally had a serious aura. The two peace officers were experienced and could tell with a single glance that he wasn’t a normal person, so they didn’t neglect him and explained the situation.

After hearing this, Marquis Southgate’s expression fell. He glared at Seymour and after a bit of silence, he said to the two peace officers, “Two officers, this is my nephew’s mistake, I represent him to sincerely apologize. We are willing to compensate the victims of this incident and we’ll be sure that they will be satisfied.”

Marquis Southgate waved his hand at a follower behind him. That follower didn’t say a thing as he took out a purse from his chest.

“There are a hundred gold coins in there. I want to use this as compensation for those passengers, it should be enough.”

The two peace officers looked at the purse before looking back at Marquis Southgate with a surprised look.

Marquis Southgate said with a smile, “There’s no need to be surprised. In order to show our sincerity, a hundred gold coins isn’t considered much.”

He didn’t notice that when Princess Caroline heard these words, she had a very strange look on her face.

The two peace officers also had strange looks. They looked at each other before the slightly chubby officer gave a cough and said to Marquis Southgate, “This…..This sir, do you think that a hundred gold coins is a lot?”
