Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 541

"Did you mean the organization that would do anything you ask, for the right price?" asked Matthew, feeling uncertain. He hadn't
been aware that the Scarlet Devils had a stronghold in the River City as well.
"Yes." Pearce thought again for a moment before he added, "It's actually interesting that the Scarlet Devils has never taken any
serious action in the River City. But even if they did commit crimes here, they would leave no incriminating evidence. So this
organization didn't occur to me at first, since they've always been very low-key here in this city."
"Matthew, I heard that the Scarlet Devils is a self-governing gang from the world of martial artists. Could it possibly be connected
to the court?" Harper asked doubtfully. In general, people or organizations out there would not get involved in court business or
politics. On the other hand, if anyone from the court paid for an assassination, an organization like the Scarlet Devils would be
happy to carry out the job.
"I don't know yet," Matthew replied. Suddenly, he recalled that the Scarlet Devils sometimes did their assassinations with hidden
weapons like silver needles. "But still, there is reason to doubt that the Scarlet Devils was involved in this matter," he then added.
"You mean the murder might have been done by the Scarlet Devils?" Harper then realized that it would make sense for a group
like the Scarlet Devils to utilize such a subtle and sinister method of killing. Indeed, she herself often carried hidden weapons for
self-defense, but the assassins among the Scarlet Devils would find it useful to kill their targets by such a quiet method.
"Are you sure?" asked Pearce, his face going pale when he heard this.
"No, I'm not quite sure yet. I think I ought to pay the Scarlet Devils a visit." A cold smile found its way to the corners of Matthew's

mouth. "I hope that the Scarlet Devils is not involved in this. Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to slaughter every last member of
that gang."
"What kind of organization is the Scarlet Devils, exactly?" Harper wondered out loud. She didn't have a clear idea of this
legendary organization.

Pearce. "The leader of the organization is called Marquis Scarlet, and he has six fierce killers, known as the Scarlet Killers, who take orders directly from him. They are murderous devils, all of them." "It's really an extraordinary gang. Their leader calls himself 'Marquis Scarlet, ' as if he were truly a

though I couldn't trace any evidence of it yet. Now, it appears that the force finally

can not only scare wailing children into silence, but also frighten away the prince."
Matthew, however, said nothing. It seemed to him that he had discounted Jason long ago. If there were any other princes worthy
of consideration, Francis and Lucas were the only notable ones. Unfortunately for them, Lucas didn't have the support of his
mother's clan, and Francis had been weak for a long time. If they wanted to fight against Felix, they could only rely on Matthew.
"Your Highness, you must know that His Highness built his reputation a long ago! He can scare a prince away as easily as he
can blink. Once he even intimidated the emperor of the Great Jade Kingdom enough to force him to depose the crown prince
appointed by himself."
"The crown prince of the Great Jade Kingdom?" Harper murmured. A familiar face flashed in her mind. "What happened at that

their emperor would not have deposed his crown prince, Rolando, to mollify your anger," Pearce told Harper. He wasn't fond of Matthew's sour and cold face, which seemed to say everyone owed him a great debt and must follow his orders, so he ignored Matthew and told Harper how
