Pastor's Tantra

Chapter 397: Stirring Thoughts

"Last night's murder in Baker Street, White Queen, has been cleared.

Aiwass was sitting in the Queen's study in the Palace of Silver and Tin, looking at the newspaper delivered this morning, and casually read out the headline on the front page: "The dangerous werewolf who assassinated Mr. Griffiths, the new trade minister, His true identity is a wanted criminal from the Iris Kingdom.

"Prime Minister Iris called the Palace of Silver and Tin urgently last night to express her deep condolences over the incident. The Arbitration Chamber has increased patrols to arrest the murderer as soon as possible."

He chuckled: "It was pretty fast. But I didn't say anything."

"really."

As the wolf in question, Lily nodded in agreement.

She relied on switching back and forth between the three forms of human, wolf, and werewolf, coupled with the ability to sneak in shadows, and it took a whole night to finally get rid of the griffins. I just came back not long ago.

After the incident last night, Aiwass rushed to the next door with reporter Dimit.

At that time, the vicinity of Minister Griffith's residence was already covered by griffons - more than twenty white-feathered griffons were flying in the sky. As they flew, dark clouds had gathered in the night sky, and thunder rolled in the clouds. With. It roared like a lion roaring.

The murder of a minister was no small matter, and the entire White Queen was placed under martial law. The arbitrators, all members of the fourth level who were rarely seen at all, arrived at the scene as soon as possible.

Aiwass showed his identity and, accompanied by members of the Arbitration Hall, successfully took Dimit and his assistant to take photos.

Of course, this companionship is also surveillance in nature.

To prevent Aiwass from eliminating certain evidence - but Aiwass didn't really need to eliminate evidence.

Therefore, he even invited many arbitrators to accompany him, and even took the initiative to help them find clues.

This in itself is Aiwass' purpose.

What surprised Aiwass was that Lily did not leave traces of the Shadow Demon in the villa according to their previously agreed upon plan.

So Aiwass immediately realized that there must be some special situation that prevented Lily from leaving traces according to the original plan.

Shadow Demon did not immediately return to him for help, which meant that Lily was not in danger. But Lily turned into a werewolf... This is enough to show that this change does not come from security needs, but for intelligence purposes.

Without communicating with Lily, Aiwass knew what information Lily wanted to convey to him.

So he led the arbitration officers from the arbitration hall to search the entire scene according to the most stringent procedures and retained evidence.

Of course they found the eagle feather dagger.

——This is the assassination proof that the Hawkeye organization will stay at the scene after assassinating others as proof that "the Hawkeye organization is responsible for this". After all, in essence, the Hawkeye organization is a comprehensive agent organization with political leanings, rather than a mercenary group that simply carries out assassinations for profit.

After testing, they also found traces of the cursed poison in the torn and tattered corpses.

Obviously, this matter has nothing to do with Aiwass.

After the arbitration hall reported the clues, the Privy Council held an emergency meeting that night and began to discuss the matter.

The "werewolf assassin" who appeared last night is undoubtedly a very dangerous criminal. It even assassinated a minister in the White Queen District, and this matter must be explained immediately. So the next morning's newspapers had to take a stand on the matter as well.

So in the morning, Aiwass received reports from newspapers and the Palace of Silver and Tin at the same time.

Aiwass flicked the report from the Privy Council Minister and praised: "This is still clearly written."

According to the rules, the Minister of Privy Council must deliver the minutes of the meeting to the Queen's study.

Then the only one who can see this report is Aiwass, who can walk freely in the Palace of Silver and Tin.

This is not a transgression. Because Isabel had left the Glass Island this morning and was cruising Avalon according to tradition. Before leaving, she wrote a document authorizing Aiwass to handle the matter. She also wrote several blank forms, signed her name below, and left blanks for specific "authorized matters."

Aiwass can fill in the blanks at any time as needed.

What kind of trust is this?

...It was as if Aiwass had robbed him of his trust.

It is an obvious fact that werewolves appear on the streets and are discovered by civilians.

Ordinary people didn't know the political details of those fleur-de-lis, but the knights certainly did.

The "Eagle Eye" organization is an assassin organization that hates the Children of the Moon. Its position is a clear-cut opposition to the Children of the Moon and the "Health Party", a party led by the Path of Love in Iris, also known as the Stabilization Faction. Their party logo is a red heart and they want to maintain the status quo.

There are many people who long for eternal life. Secondly, the witch's magical potions with many uses and the witch's appearance that will be greatly enhanced with the advancement of the level are also valuable and rare resources.

In Iris, where witches are basically controlled by the Moon Children, potions are basically a rationing system. Because of this, the "Health Party" controlled by the Moon Son is actually a party dominated by old aristocrats and big businessmen.

In contrast, another political party, the "Giant Tree Party", which is led by the path of beauty, has a green tree as its logo.

The "giant tree" refers to the giant tree where the elves of the Theocracy live. Due to the constant pressure from Star Antimony, Iris has been preparing for war all year round. The amount of military expenditures is very high, which is why the tax rate is also increasing every year. Moreover, both men and women will be compulsorily recruited when they reach adulthood, unless they pay a high " Levy." Therefore, the anti-war tendency among Iris folk is very high.

The Giant Tree Sect hopes to become a permanent neutral country like the elves, open ports and trade to all races and countries, focus on economic development, and be independent from the wars of various countries. They are mainly composed of urban petty bourgeoisie, intellectuals and a large number of artists.

These artists became academic circles and basically controlled the promotion of beauty. There is no doubt that the path of beauty is more stable and easier to gain public support than the path of love, which is prone to getting out of control and going crazy. This is also one of the very few ways to master a certain level of extraordinary abilities just through hard systematic study.

Just like when a superior alchemist teaches his students, as long as the students study hard and have a college-level brain, they can at least reach the second level by the age of thirty; the same is true for the "art style" that great artists teach their students to create. In this way... you can even reach the third level with a little talent.

As the survival pressure of Iris continues to increase, a large number of talented young artists have also been squeezed out in disguise.

It is precisely because of the overwhelming number of young artists from the bottom that the seemingly passive and naive "Giant Tree Party" can become a powerful party on par with the stability faction. This is also the ruling party of the current Prime Minister.

Not many people know that the "Eagle Eye" organization actually belongs to the "Big Tree Party".

On the surface, the Hawkeye Organization is the successor to the exiled mercenaries belonging to the Black Hawk Principality.

Because they not only kill the children of the moon, but also kill some great artists. In other words, they actually kill both sides. It's just that they are relatively opposed to the Children of the Moon - because Black Hawk and Narcissus are originally enemy countries, this makes sense. In addition, they also take on some hired killing jobs.

And many people, including the Privy Council, also believe that the Hawkeye organization actually belongs to Iris' third largest party, the "Imperial Glory Party." They are a quite radical organization, claiming that the Iris Kingdom is the orthodox successor to the Herasl Empire. Inciting xenophobic sentiments and emphasizing ultra-nationalism.

The violent behavior of the Hawkeye organization is undoubtedly very close to the ideas of the Imperial Party.

Not long ago, the Prime Minister from the Giant Tree Party admitted the assassination of the Avalon royal family and promised to pay huge compensation. There is no doubt that these compensations will eventually be passed on to the entire population.

Therefore, this caused a lot of dissatisfaction with the Giant Tree Party within Iris.

However, the Prime Minister did not admit that the assassination of the minister's secretary by the assassins of the Hawkeye organization was related to him. He believed that this was the elimination of the Star Antimony spies within Avalon and a long-arm operation by the Star Antimony Kingdom - in other words, he claimed that the Hawkeye organization was related to the Star Antimony people.

From the perspective of the Iris people, it was basically the default that "Eagle Eye" belonged to the Imperial Party. The Imperial Party is also happy to acquiesce in this view to increase people's recognition of their powerful power.

As a result, now, they have quickly declared that the Hawkeye organization has nothing to do with them. But the shit basin has been overturned, and it will be difficult to escape.

In this incident, whether it is the werewolf or the witch behind the werewolf, there is a high probability that he is a member of the Health Party.

Therefore, this incident can be interpreted in two directions.

The Lord Privy Councilor wrote very clearly.

One is that the werewolves of the Health Party are posing as assassins of "Eagle Eye" to frame the Eagle Eye organization, that is, the Imperial Party. Eliminate political opponents in advance when it is confirmed that the Juju Party cannot win the next election.

The second is that some of the assassins of the Hawkeye organization have become "wild werewolves" who are not controlled by the Health Party.

Avalon has absolutely no need to find out the truth. They can just go with the flow.

In the former case, Avalon needs to denounce the "Hawkeye Organization" and emphasize that this incident was committed by an assassin; in the latter case, Avalon needs to emphasize that it was a werewolf.

According to the investigation by the Supervisory Bureau, they confirmed from the mutilated body of Minister Griffith that the unique "curse" of the Hawkeye organization was the same as that left in the body of John Raff, the former Chief Private Secretary of Minister Drost. consistent.

The key point of these two speculations is actually "whether the traces of the poison remaining in the body were left intentionally." As for the eagle feather dagger, it doesn't matter. The assassins of the Hawkeye organization will leave this thing at any assassination scene, so it's not surprising that someone collects it.

"The view of the Privy Council is to recommend the second option. The report said, 'Remaining traces of a bloody demon summoning ritual were found in the basement where the body was located.' Because the two trade ministers were assassinated one after another. They are all related to the Star Antimony people.

"If you choose the first option, then it will actually be innocuous to the Imperial Party. To their supporters, both the Avalonians and the Star Antimonians are enemies, but the Star Antimonians are more hateful; then A Star Antimony spy in Avalon, just kill him.

"But if we adopt the second option, as long as we add 'We have identified these two people as Star Antimony spies', it will be equivalent to characterizing this behavior as silence. It is accusing the 'Iris Health Party and Star Antimony people in collusion'" ', suggesting that the assassination was actually a long-arm operation from Star Antimony's 'Secret Room' department..."

Aiwass raised the corner of his mouth slightly and tapped the document with his fingers: "This will cause chaos within Iris and change the originally certain party election. Excellent troublemaker thinking... is indeed a good calculation."

I'm afraid the Iris people are a little confused now.

When the spies at Iris get this information, they will probably think that Miss Chloe is indeed still alive and has just turned into a werewolf.

...I feel sorry for you, Miss Chloe.

I have to trouble you to live again.
