Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Luo Xiu then folded up the secret letter from the "Ancient Hermitage" and put it in his arms.

This is evidence that can be submitted directly to the "Holy Court" to apply for a "trial" against Lodiv.

But this is not enough - according to Luo Xiu's observation of the Lord of Lodiv, even if this evidence of crime is presented in front of him, the old eunuch will probably find various excuses to evade it.

For example, "This is forgery", "This is slander", etc. Luo Xiu could imagine the old eunuch's angry protest.

He also needs more evidence that can truly nail Lodiv's charge of "collaboration with the enemy."

Luo Xiu was thinking calmly, and at the same time he heard the rustling footsteps coming from behind.

Anthony, Pamier and Connor also followed them upstairs. Captain Anthony waved to Luo Xiu from a distance and said hello.

"... Luo Xiu."

Anthony asked, "Did you find anything?"

"Not yet...what about you?" Luo Xiu responded calmly.

He doesn't want Anthony to know yet that he actually has key evidence.

Because this evidence has not yet exerted its maximum value.

"We searched the second and third floors."

Anthony said with some emotion on his expression, "But apart from discovering that Lodiff's daily life is really quite luxurious... we didn't find any evidence related to the 'Hermitage'."

"That's it..." Luo Xiu said in a regretful tone, "Maybe Rodive hid the evidence somewhere... Let's look for it again."

"Everyone, please be careful and don't let go of any clues."

Anthony nodded, a trace of gloom flashed across his face, "...I can only do my best. Even if I am a candidate for the priest of the Holy Court, the 'search power' I have is very limited. Probably...we still have twenty minutes."

After Anthony finished speaking, he took Connor and Pamier into another room.

They closed the door, and then there was the sound of rummaging.

…

Twenty minutes passed.

Anthony, who found no evidence, took Connor and Pamier back to the guest room on the first floor with a somewhat disappointed mood.

Lord Lodiv looked at them with a smile.

From Anthony's expression, the Lord of Lodiv knew that they had gained nothing.

"Fellow Holy Judges," Lodiv said with a smile, "Have you discovered anything?"

Anthony was about to answer when he suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder.

He turned around and saw Luo Xiu passing behind him.

Luo Xiu followed Anthony and the others downstairs to avoid meeting them and being asked about the "evidence" before returning to the guest room.

If Anthony were asked in this situation and he "concealed" the secret message, it would seriously affect the unity of the team.

Luo Xiu paid great attention to the sense of proportion.

"Lord City Lord...as you wish, we have not found any evidence that can accuse you."

Luo Xiu said as he sat on the sofa next to him.

When he heard Luo Xiu say this, the last trace of hope on Anthony's face quickly disappeared.

Anthony was a little dull, but he heard Luo Xiu say next:

"...But, Lord City Lord, do you know why we are here?"

"For what?" Rodive asked with interest.

"——Actually, we captured the Monastery's 'Elemental Envoy' Alonzo."

"..."

"...?"

Luo Xiu looked directly into Rodiff's eyes, and he noticed a hint of suspicion flashed through Rodiff's eyes.

"Elemental Envoy" Alonso was the signature of the sender of the secret letter from the "Hermitage".

This is exactly the situation "weaved" using that letter.

"...Alonso told us that he said that among the officials in Red Maple City, there are informants from their 'Hermitage'."

Luo Xiu slowly stated to Rodive. At the same time, he noticed that Rodive's eyes became deeper and deeper.

Anthony, Connor and Pamier on the side also noticed this at the same time.

Although they knew from the bottom of their hearts that they had never caught any "Elemental Envoy" Alonso.

But seeing that Luo Xiu seemed to be confident, and seeing the obvious emotional changes in Rodive, Anthony and the other three tacitly remained silent and acted like a crowd.

"Lord City Lord, guess who Alonzo told him?" Luo Xiu asked with a smile.

"..."

"...Could it be me?" Lodiv blurted out.

But he soon realized something was wrong, and his slightly narrowed eyes immediately looked away.

"Hey! You guessed it right!" Luo Xiu suddenly raised his voice, "No wonder people say you are a truly wise person."

"..." Lodiv tightened his lips and remained silent.

He felt that the priest across from him seemed to be exuding an inexplicable aura of being beaten.

Rodive was waiting for Luo Xiu to continue saying something, but Luo Xiu suddenly stopped talking.

He just smiled and stared at Rodive, his expression was like a static sculpture, with a strange calmness.

"..." Lodiv gradually couldn't bear it anymore.

"So, you, because of the random nonsense of heretics, you have unreasonable doubts about the most loyal subjects of the empire?"

Rodive looked angry and couldn't help asking, but he only saw Luo Xiu shaking his head with a lonely look.

"Of course not..." Luo Xiu sighed:

"You don't understand our painstaking efforts at all. We just want to prove your innocence. After all, the truth is often accompanied by doubts..."

"but."

Luo Xiu suddenly clapped his palms and said, "Congratulations, Lord City Lord!"

"We didn't find any evidence in your home that you had an affair with the Priory, which proves that Alonso's words may indeed be slander..."

"...That's good." Rodive breathed a sigh of relief.

But before he could finish breathing, he heard Luo Xiu continue:

"When we go back, we will continue to torture Alonso, and we will definitely let him explain who is the real mastermind."

"So! If Alonso identifies you again, we will conduct a routine search at your residence again!"

"Please understand, this is all for the sake of your innocence..."

"..."

"……ah?"

Rodive's eyelids twitched, but he saw Luo Xiu had stood up and patted Anthony on the shoulder.

"Then, let's say goodbye today, Lord City Lord."

Luo Xiu smiled and nodded to Rodive.

Anthony understood, so he stood up and, like Luo Xiu, nodded and said goodbye to Rodive.

Now Rodive only felt noisy. His mind was filled with "Alonso's" accusations against him, and for a moment he just felt confused.

…

From the corner of his eye, Rodive saw Luo Xiu and Anthony approaching the door.

The result is the next moment.

Luo Xiu suddenly turned around and shouted to Rodive:

"-Oh, by the way! I forgot one thing!"

"——Lord City Lord! That Alonso also lied to us. He said that you are...hemiplegic!"

"——But you are obviously so healthy! We can all see that this is a lie, this is a cheap slander and slander!"

"..."

--Bang.

Before Lodiv could respond, Luo Xiu had already closed the door.

Then, just seconds after he closed the door.

Luo Xiu then heard Rodive's hysterical roar coming from the mansion, as well as the sound of glass being broken.

Rodive's mentality collapsed.

It's not that he was caught with anything.

He simply broke the defense.

And this is also the result of Luo Xiu's deliberate creation.

His plan was to obtain "new evidence" from Lodiff.

So far, it's even half done.

Wait until I wake up and continue coding! wait for me!

Today I had to raise the ashes of this old eunuch.jpg
