Chapter 410 The worst situation has arisen
He originally intended to remind her to draw a line between the family and Chapman early.
But Ge Li seemed to be threatened by herself, and she became angry irrationally.
"It's not your business, it's enough for you to go back and please your Chris." After that, she turned around and wanted to leave.
However, just as she walked out, she stopped hesitantly.
"...The last time you got more than one account book. And the magician was dead."
After saying these two sentences, she did not look back.
Tuliu Wien stayed in place with a slightly confused look.
"—What does that magician mean when he died?"
...
Chapman's evidence of guilt is disclosed more and more every time, and more than every time.
The whole kingdom was shaken by his outrageous crime.
The people were excited. Even beggars on the roadside learned to curse them every day to get more rewards, and seemed to have completely forgotten the difference in identity.
The king finally ordered the city guards to arrest and detain Earl Chapman who was confined to the dungeon, and set up a special investigation team to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Even Duke Elliot, who has never been involved in such incidents, specially submitted a self-defense letter, claiming that the rumors about his collusion with Chapman were all false and begged His Majesty the King to uphold justice.
For a time, all the princes and nobles involved in Chapman were in a panic and all the plants and trees were in war.
The weather turned colder, and before I knew it, the king capital already had a very solemn atmosphere.
Wien sat in the study, waiting for Elliot to bring back the latest news from the palace.
After a while, Elliot, who had just stepped into the house, walked into the study.
"The top person in charge of this investigation team is Bulvo," he said lightly. "There is another adjutant who is more unexpected, Stuart's special envoy Simon."
Wien was silent for a long time and didn't speak.
It seems that the worst situation I expected happened.
When he released evidence as Ecos, he deliberately screened it, and neither Bulvo, Franz and others were exposed by him.
But because he split the clues and did not directly take out the original account book, even if some people were announced less, it was not so eye-catching.
This is to test the real person in charge while keeping a backup plan.
Now he has received the answer.
His Majesty the King's arrangement is hard to explain as being out of good intentions.
And these days, the taint witnesses that were released by themselves have already died for many unknown reasons.
"If you have a breakup with the king, will your title be deprived?" asked Wien.
The profound meaning of it is self-evident.
“Not for a short period of time.”
Hearing his disrespectful remarks, Eliot's face was not even a trace of surprise. "But, this is just the beginning."
"After Franz's recommendation, His Majesty the King met Simon yesterday, and the two had a great conversation."
As she said, Elliot walked back to the main seat behind the desk and sat down.
"I can't find out the detailed conversation, but today His Majesty the King appointed Simon as the deputy leader of the investigation team without discussing it with anyone." He stated without discerning the mood, "The reason is that the alien from Stuart is not familiar with the place in the royal capital and has nothing to do with other local forces."
Wien glanced at the corner of his mouth.
He was clearly involved in private with Franz, and judging from his own performance, he did not look like he had never been to Lornes before.
"It's bad news for us," Wien pondered, "but... Is there no minister against this matter for appointing a foreigner to be so important?"
As a king, George II was not able to do whatever he wanted.
Aristocratic politics is born with the soil for exchange of interests. If the relationship between the parties is not balanced well, even the king will capsize miserably.
Elliot shook his head.
"With Chapman's incident in front, they were afraid of being beaten as accomplices, so most of them were silent."
"In addition, His Majesty announced the decision in court, and the meaning of unquestionable is very strong. Many people came to the meeting without reacting."
He smiled, "Maybe until now, there are still people who mistakenly think that Simon will stand on our side in the investigation because of your friendship with Raphael..."
That's a little outrageous.
It's easy to say about Bulvo. Although he had a handle on Chapman, the handle he caught was obviously bigger.
Simon is more difficult to deal with, and Wien hasn't figured out where his inexplicable hostility comes from.
"In addition, Your Majesty also tactfully advised me to ask the Leaf Publishing House not to guide the case any more public opinion."
Elliot's expression seemed to be very relaxed, and I don't know if he was really in control of everything.
Tsk...
The king's insight is much sharper than he imagined.
However, as long as this kind of thing appears, its influence will sooner or later be discovered.
"Father, I want to meet Simon once again," said Wien.
There is no new idea from other ways. You might as well have a positive meeting with him, and maybe you can find some clues.
"I'll go with you." Elliot took the initiative to care, "his magic is much stronger than you. If there is a special situation, you can't escape even if you want to."
“…”
It seems to be underestimated.
But at some levels, Duke Elliot is quite conscientious.
"By the way, does my father really have no impression of Simon or similar to him in his memory?" He confirmed again, "Maybe he didn't call this name before, and his appearance is different from what he is now."
"No." Elliot said with certainty.
But he quickly added: "But I have seen too many people in my life. If it were just strangers I met by chance many years ago, I might have forgotten them a long time ago."
...It's useless to say it.
Wien secretly complained.
Anyway, since this man named Simon had not appeared before, and now he has been involved in the affairs of the Wenche family, most likely he is ready to take action.
And often the moment when he takes action is the moment when his own flaws are the biggest.
It's enough to be on guard.
Under the bright lights in the study, Wayne and Elliott discussed the specific plan until very late.
The next day, when Wien hurriedly put on his coat and was about to go out with Elliot, Chris looked at them with a confused look on his face.
"Where are you going?" She reached out to stop the door in wonder.
As soon as the first sentence ended, the next sentence popped out completely subconsciously.
