Chapter 20: The Formation of Tacit Understanding
When the chains were tied around his neck, where was he still in the mood to care about Abdulby's fugitives, Pique could only be dragged to the ground, desperately defending himself.
It is impossible to turn over, the death of Chief Bishop Hank is a blow in the face of the Holy See, so it is not publicized, with the scapegoat of Pique, you can let the Holy See let the next archbishop be appointed.
So, it doesn't matter what you really think.
"I swear to the great gods, I really didn't collude with witches!" Hank's screams still echoed, and the banquet was impossible.
The people who had flattered Hank before changed their faces: "I didn't expect this guy to be this kind of person, hmph, a blasphemous who is in the company of witches." ”
This is the real aristocracy.
Sauer cleared his throat and said to the nobles who were waiting for news: "Fellow believers, I know that you have a lot of questions in your minds, so let me explain them to you......"
Abaylou asked Jotz, "You didn't kill that Bishop Hank?"
"It's no good for me to kill him, why kill him. ”
Jotz glanced blankly at Abay Lou and continued: "It is very likely that Bishop Hank's method of killing is a witch, Hank was killed by a heartbeat, and I was also the object of suspicion at first, and then I got rid of suspicion. ”
One can imagine how much effort Joates wasted trying to get rid of suspicion, because she was a real witch.
"This witch's cave belongs to my teacher, and she used to experiment here. Since it can't be used, it's better to use it as a means, anyway, Pique will be eliminated by me sooner or later. ”
Joates grinned and said that she was unusually black-bellied.
As the two whispered, Commander Sauer read Joets' name: "The person who discovered these witch things is none other than our staunch papal believer, Miss Jotz! Thanks to her, the solution of the unsolved case of the Holy See is just around the corner, and everyone's safety is protected." ”
Sauer instructed the waiter to bring him a glass of wine, and he held it up: "Thank you, Miss Jotz!"
"Thank you, Miss Jotz!" shouted the nobles.
Sauer glanced at Joates gratefully from the bottom of his heart, even if he didn't catch the witch, catching a big nobleman who had a relationship with the witch was a great achievement.
It is very likely that he will be rewarded from the atrium for this incident, and it is not impossible for him to become a captain.
At worst, it will become the eyeliner of the executor, which is a real power!
"Don't thank me, that's what I'm supposed to do. "Jotz modestly said that she was not afraid of the jealousy of anyone here, because she was an evil witch, the underground king of Sapphire City.
The Holy See took out those human skins, pretended to be disgusted, and showed them to everyone, and was not afraid of Joetz's exposé, so he said in a grand manner: "What do you think these are?"
"What kind of leather is it, the witch's secret research?" the people below commented.
Sauer sneered and shook the human skin, allowing it to be displayed in its entirety in front of everyone.
There are few fools in the aristocracy, and at this glance they can see that this is a human skin, of course they don't know that this is a thing of the Holy See, so the horror and cruelty of the witch has risen to another level.
"God, witches are so terrible, they actually skin people, are they demons? ”
Enough, Sauer is satisfied to let his subordinates take the human skin, and the superiors influence the subordinates, and these nobles will let the others know the horror of the witch as well, and finally spread to the whole of Sapphire.
Witch, you will be at a loss!
Sure enough, it was the right thing to bring these skins, he had a look of resentment on his face, but his heart was happy, he did this too beautifully!
Before the curtain was over, this major event had already spread to all the nobles in Sapphire City.
As Joates and Abaylou walked out of Peake's mansion, three grim men in black cloaks appeared in the doorway, blocking their path.
Executor!
Jotz's eyes shrank, she had dealt with this group of people at her most nervous time, insidious, stubborn, and pervasive.
"Miss Jotz. The leader lowered his head, which was already his greatest courtesy.
Joates also performed a bit of etiquette, the same kind of salute that is better than not doing.
Taunts could be more.
The executor didn't care, but asked, "Jotz, how did you discover the witch's cave in Pique's house?" ”
His tone was stiff as if interrogating a prisoner, and Joates asked uncomfortably, "You still suspect that I have something to do with a witch?"
"Please answer our questions. ”
"What if I say no?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a clanging sound of chains in the robe of the black-robed man behind the executor. The executor's tone has begun to be displeased: "You have no room for refusal. You are the one who could have killed Chief Hank who has the best chance of getting close to him, and we have reason to believe that you are the murderer. ”
"Please, then this is a witch, it's normal to kill people with strange whereabouts. Joates said unhappily.
Abaylou also holds the dagger, and if Jotz is attacked, he kills three people and takes the black cauldron.
The executor didn't move, but the three men surrounded the two of them in the middle, clearly with a desire to attack.
"One last chance. Said the executor.
"Okay," although the strong Jotz of the executor retorted, he still had to be soft when he was soft: "You should know that my power was discovered by my thieves by accident." ”
"That's a good reason indeed. "Then please tell me the name of the thief, and we'll ask him directly." ”
"If you dare to hurt her, I'll report it directly to the atrium. "Name the thieves," said Jotz threatening them.
The executor left, and Jotz said helplessly: "Look at the executor, pedantic and clingy and terrible. ”
Abay nodded, he had dealt with the executors a lot.
The force of the executors may not be top-notch, but the observation is definitely top-notch, because they have a culture in many places where everyone is at risk.
Very few people can escape their tracking.
"It's over, I'm planning to leave Sapphire King City tomorrow. Abyrine said to Joates as he left.
"When will you be back?" asked Jotz, a little reluctantly.
"It may be a long time, I promise, and it will come when you need me most. Abaylou smiled and said, "But don't you need me all the time, I can't keep busy." ”
"I'd love to know what's going on with you, and I hope you can tell me when you get back. Joates was haunted by Abaylou's perfunctory inquiry.
"Of course, I won't have any scruples then. Abaylou rubbed her hair.
Joates narrowed his eyes like a kitten.
She liked it very much, and Abaylou gave her a great sense of stability, maybe he was strong, maybe he was not surprised in anything?
Surely not the reason to sleep with him!!
"I'm sure you can do whatever you want. Jotz said coldly.
Then he was stared at by Abay Lou's eyes and his face turned red.
I didn't know what to say. Joates almost covered his face and slipped into the cracks.
"You're so cute. Abaylou tapped the corner of her lips and said with a smile.
This woman was so cute, Abaylou touched her somewhat hot face.
But she didn't have the appearance of dealing with those nobles at all, which was in line with her age.
"Let's go, I'm going back!" said Joets stretched out his hands to push Abailou away, covering his blushing face.
"You're going to have to come back and see me sooner. Joates whispered, looking at Abay Lou.
"Hmm. ”
The two of them looked at each other, and they actually had a tacit understanding.
