119.Chapter 119
- The Federation's troops will soon arrive at the junction of the star fields?
- Is the Federation going to openly support Samuel and fight Carter together?
There was silence in the cabinet room, and people had their own thoughtsβsome rejoicing, some cautious, some apprehensive......
After a while, the silence finally broke.
An elder in the cabinet sat upright in his place, facing the menacing legionnaires, his face still unchanged: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this...... The cabinet is not your Selentu Palace, when will the emperor be able to enter and exit here casually? β
Emperor Beckwell saluted the old man politely and patiently explained, "Mr. Penner, I am very sorry that I had to bring the army in. These are extraordinary times, and we have found evidence of some cabinet members collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and they must be brought back to continue the investigation. I can assure you that the army will only take those who have conclusive evidence of their problems. β
Penner Howard is the younger brother of the Duke of the Second Star District, and the oldest member of the current cabinet.
He had already deduced from Beckwell the Great's previous words that Carter had orchestrated the interstellar pirates and kidnappings, and that there was someone within Samue who was in cahoots with him, and that Duke Gustav was likely involved......
Now that the emperor has brought the emperor ** in and surrounded the cabinet, as a senior cabinet member, Mr. Penner must state his position and attitude and safeguard the dignity and interests of the cabinet, so he asked questions.
Seeing that Beckwell the Great's attitude was not particularly tough, and he also directly stated the "strong" reason, Mr. Penner nodded and responded: "If it involves collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, then the plot is very strict, and if this is indeed the case, the cabinet will also cooperate with the actions of Serentu and actively investigate." β
Duke Hazelden, Duke of Gustav, who was on the other side, saw that Mr. Penner had already made his attitude clear and understood that it was no longer possible to incite the members of the cabinet to resist the "atrocities" of the emperor at this time.
But he was absolutely unwilling to be taken away like this, so he could only ask: "How did you get the so-called evidence?" Have you been monitoring the actions of your cabinet members? β
Other than that, Hazelden couldn't think of any reason why Beckwell the Great could find evidence of their collusion with Carter so quickly! And even Nayden is his son, he can find out!
Spying on cabinet members, this is definitely a scandal for the royal family! If Beckwell insisted on continuing the investigation, he would have to admit that he used the Imperial Team to spy on and prosecute government officials.
If they make a fuss at this point, maybe they still have a chance to turn the tables!
"These evidences were discovered by the person concerned, Alan Adrington, and we have found some of the suspects based on the clues he provided, so we need to continue the investigation in order to find out these traitors as soon as possible."
Hazelden sneered: "What clues can a teenager find?" If you want to add to the crime, it seems that Your Majesty is going to wash the cabinet with blood, so you are willing to give up? β
Alan's abilities were as special as those of Elijah the High Priest, and it was best not to speak out unless there was an emergency.
But after deliberation, it was already predicted that Hazelden would likely lay the charge of spying on the cabinet on the head of Beckwell the Great β a scandal that would be absolutely fatal and easy to cause until the royal family had fully proven itself and restored its reputation and public trust.
As a last resort, Beckwell the Great, after seeking the consent of High Priest Elijah and Allen, could only state this fact: "Alan Adrington, like High Priest Elijah, has that kind of power......"
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
βLike Elijah the High Priest...... That ability?
When Mr. Penner heard this, his heart moved.
It is said that the High Priest of Elijah had a special ability to see the "soul" of a person, whether it was disguise, surgery, or complete genetic modification, he could see the true identity of the other person through the "soul".
The Samuel family had heard about it, but they didn't make it public.
Even a well-informed Mr. Penner could not help but be a little surprised to hear that there was a second person possessing such an ability, for he had vaguely heard that such an ability could only be possessed by a very small number of members of the Holy See......
On the other hand, Hazelden's first reaction when he heard Beckwell the Great's words was not to believe it at all!
This legendary ability is extremely rare, and there are no more than 3 people in history, including the high priest Elijah, and without exception, all of them are clergy of the Holy See, and two of them are high priests.
That Alan Adrington was indeed an S-class spiritual power purifier, and his talent might be good, but he was not a clergyman.
Moreover, where did such a coincidence come from, in the same period of time, two people with the ability to "see souls" appeared!
"It can't be!" Hazelden's tone at this time finally had a hint of panic: "In order to cover up his behavior, His Majesty actually fabricated such a completely impossible situation!" β
"Whether it's a fabrication or not, it's not up to you to decide. If you have to prove it, Alan Adrington said, you can always test him. Beckwell the Great also saw that Hazelden was at the end of his crossbow, so he took advantage of the victory and pursued: "We can also ask someone to notarize!" β
The reason why Beckwell the Great wanted to take advantage of the cabinet meeting to arrest people was because they were sure that Hazelden, who was confident that he would not leave a handle, would definitely be present in person to "add fuel to the fire" for the emperor's abdication.
This time, they want to wipe out all their henchmen, and they must capture the thief and capture the king first!
Mr. Penner also saw the purpose of Beckwell the Great's visit, and he kindly reminded: "If what His Majesty said is true, I should ......notarize it as soon as possible" so as to stand on his feet and not be slandered by political enemies and misunderstood by the people.
Beckwell the Great was very modest in front of the old man, he nodded, indicating that he agreed with Mr. Penner's proposal, and then turned to Hazelden: "Then trouble Duke Gustav, and these people, cooperate with the investigation." β

The day after Allen returned safely to Serentu, he contacted Deacon Richard of the Diere church, mainly to inquire about the circumstances of his abduction that night.
When he heard that the gangsters might not stay long because they were afraid that they were under the statue of the god of light in the chapel, so they would not have the time and energy to harm the children and elderly people of the church, Alan was finally a little relieved.
"The emperor has already come here once and taken away the problematic deacons and nuns you mentioned," Deacon Richard said with great guilt: "I didn't even notice their strangeness earlier, this is all my negligence!" β
"It's not your problem, it's that they're hiding too deeply." Alan comforted the other party.
Among this group of problematic clergy, there are even nuns who have worked in the Holy See for more than ten years, who are gentle and meticulous on weekdays, and are patient and considerate to the children and the elderly in the church - such a person, if it were not for Allen's soul, would never have guessed that he would be in adultery with the gangster wolf Bèi!
"What about Little George? Is he okay? β
"George hasn't eaten or drunk since you were kidnapped, but today I heard that you have been rescued, and you have begun to eat and sleep obediently, and now you should be awake, you can look at him and comfort him."
The terminals worn by the children and the elderly of the church were donated by charities, and although they are fully functional, they are mainly cost-effective, and the size of the holographic screen must not be compared with the terminals of intermediate deacons.
When Deacon Richard found little George in the room, he was looking at a bottle of wildflowers on the windowsill that had withered, and there was no expression on his face, but his eyes were bright, as if they were glowing.
"George, come over here, Alan wants to say a few words to you." Deacon Richard sat in a small chair and gently called for little George to come over.
When little George heard this, he immediately ran over and looked at Deacon Richard expectantly, and the other party opened his holographic screen, revealing a face that he had been thinking about for a long time.
Alan looked at the little guy's happy face with a smile, "touched" his little head through the screen, and was about to say something, when he was surprised to see that the little golden retriever next to the child had already opened his eyes!
Round, bright pupils, imprinted with his shadow, look bright and good-looking, with the innocence of a child, and an indescribable strength!
The "eyes" of the soul appeared, which means that little George's mental power defects are likely to be cured to a certain extent, although he doesn't know what miracle happened to little George, but Alan is sincerely happy!
"George, good boy, eat and sleep obediently, and after a while, I'll find a chance to see you at Die, okay?"
It certainly won't be very peaceful lately, he has just returned safely to Serentu, and it is not known what the intrigue is outside, let alone what kind of turbulence will be set off in the investigation of the rebels.
It is impossible for Alan to leave Serentu anytime soon, and I am afraid that he will not even be able to go to Adrington Manor and the Temple of Abner, let alone Dee.
But he also wanted to see the "healthy" little George with his own eyes, so he made an agreement with the little guy that after a while, when the current matter was resolved and relatively safe, he would go to the Die's church and visit the church members who were innocently affected because of him.
And Eren also decided to go to the scene to pay respects to the warriors and guards who died to protect them.
Little George was very happy when he heard Alan's words, and he pursed his mouth, although he didn't say a word, the small dimples on his cheeks were deeper.
The "little golden retriever" next to him wagged his tail even harder, and his eyes became brighter!

"The Carter royal family wrote, directed, and acted by themselves, single-handedly creating interstellar pirate incidents and kidnapping incidents!"
Such a news announced by the royal family immediately caused heated discussions.
