In this situation, Wyatt displayed the typical characteristics of a regular noble: he vehemently denied any involvement in the affair and worked hard to convince Hof of his stance.
Hof was now puzzled.
He had initially thought Wyatt was the one causing trouble, but it appeared not to be the case. So, who could the real perpetrator be?
Mambaton suggested to Hof, "My lord, could it be the work of that old fox Mibo? He may not excel in many things, but when it comes to scheming, he certainly knows his craft."
Wyatt thought to himself: Indeed, just like our lord 'Viper' Hof, they're both cunning old devils, engaging in a shadowy battle of wits.
However, he kept these thoughts to himself, striving to maintain the expression befitting a vassal in the presence of his lord.
After some thought, Hof declared, "I see now. Let's not discuss who's behind this for the moment; I believe I know when the crime was committed."
