The clown, who had believed that Lucien Evans was close to the professor from the beginning, had considered the possibility of the two of them joining forces to frame him before he arrived at No. 116 in Gisu District, such as having Lucian Evans pretend to be seriously injured by himself, and then Natasha, Camille, or someone from the Principality's intelligence services would witness and stop it all and kill or capture him.

But after careful scrutiny, the clown found that if he framed himself like this, the loophole would be bigger. If he were to be killed on the spot, the sympathetic people in the inquisition would definitely not accept the conclusion casually, and at least conduct a rigorous interrogation and verification of Lucien, which was definitely not a good thing for Lucian, who had many suspicions and was close to the professor.

Natasha could not strongly oppose the Church's reasonable demands, and the other nobles would not support it either—in the relationship between the Church and the nobility, both sides had a certain bottom line, and no one would arbitrarily cross it, and the Church held a strong position.

And if you just design a trap to catch yourself, as long as you don't die on the spot, you have a good chance of turning over. How did Lucien get hurt?What are the traces of the injury?Does it match the characteristics of his own blood?He came here after the Tracking Professor, and this matter can be confirmed from the "Sage" Viscount Crane, so why did Lucien go to No. 116 in the middle of the night in the middle of the night in the recuperation?

The most important thing is that this time, I have a clear conscience, I can directly ask the church to use divine means to interrogate and lie detectors, and I can prove my innocence through them!

But Lucien Evans died in such a strange way that it was completely beyond the Joker's imagination. He had the image of the fallen angel with broken wings in his mind. Looking at the scene of "blooming" like fireworks, I couldn't come back to my senses for a while.

At this moment, he believed that Lucian Evans was really dead, because if he used the body after a short transformation to disguise himself, then unless he never appeared again, never again as the great musician Lucian Evans, it was useless, and killing himself by mistake would make the church suspect that there was something wrong with it, and it would definitely be strictly questioned.

After a brief moment of distraction, the eyes exposed from the clown's comical mask shrank sharply into two dots.

He saw Natasha stunned in mid-air. She wore a gorgeous purple court dress. The body is slender, the legs are slender and straight, the eyes are shining, and the lips are vermilion and pink. Heroic yet beautiful. Like a noble lady who meets her lover in the middle of the night.

Of course. At this time, Natasha's gaze had completely frozen, and she seemed to have lost her soul and looked at the flesh and blood "fireworks" that bloomed.

Run, run, run!

That's all that runs through the Joker's mind, never spend a second more in front of a woman who has witnessed the dismemberment of her closest love. Especially when this woman also has extremely powerful destructive power!

At this moment, she will not be reasonable at all!

Under the danger, the clown burst into full potential, and there seemed to be invisible black threads rising from the air around him. And he stepped and clung to these thin lines, and in two or three times fled to the edge of the woods behind the villa.

But just then, he heard a roar of anger and sorrow, or closer to a wail, and the earth and air around him seemed to tremble.

"Not good!" the clown pounced into the woods, but a silver-gray sword light slashed through his back.

The sword light quickly turned into an invisible, distorted strange gap, and disappeared in an instant, not a short distance, and the layers of magic light and magic item light shining on the clown's body were cut apart like ordinary paper.

The clown's body suddenly twisted, and the whole person turned into a toy doll that seemed to be wrapped in thin black lines.

Thin lines break off one by one, and a gap emerges on the black figure that almost splits it in half.

Immediately afterwards, the clown returned to his original state, but the right half of his body was separated from his torso and fell to the ground, splashing his internal organs and blood all over the sky.

The Joker's mind began to blur, but he knew that there could be no pause, and if he wanted to escape under a Heavenly Knight, who was also a Heavenly Knight of the top bloodline, he had to seize every slight opportunity.

Since Natasha failed to kill herself with the first sword, there is still hope for herself!

The strong will allowed the Joker to endure severe pain and injuries that would paralyze most of the bishops, and he did not slow down, running away in the dark woods, while he calmly squirmed his body, so that the blood was wrapped in an invisible membrane, no longer overflowing, leaving no trace.

Although he knew that if Natasha stabbed again, it would be absolutely impossible for him to dodge, and Natasha suddenly forgot that the possibility of not attacking again was almost zero, but no matter how small the hope was, he had to fight for it, and he couldn't give up because of his despair!

Even though he hates Lucien Evans, the never-give-up spirit contained in his music is something every knight should have!

A miracle seems to have happened until the Joker disappears into the darkness and Natasha's second sword is not slashed.

............

"Valdo, you're going to stop me?" Natasha held a silver-white sword, her eyes cold and terrifying.

Valdo, the "Substitute" of the Vaorit Inquisition, was flying wildly under the pressure of that invisible momentum, but he still stood firm in front of Natasha and said calmly: "Your Royal Highness, I have sent the Night's Watch to arrest the clown. And until things are figured out, I think it's best to save his life. What happened just now?"

Since the clown is carefully inspected from house to house, when Natasha slashes at him with a sword, the "Substitute" Waldo arrives at the scene. Sympathizing with the Joker, he naturally stopped Natasha's second attack, so as not to be "killed" by her.

In the distance, Camille, who seemed to be afraid of disturbing something, flew over at this time.

"The Joker killed Lucien. Natasha replied as if she was suppressing infinite anger, and her silver-purple eyes became cold and ruthless.

"What?!" exclaimed all the night watchmen, including Valdo.

Juliana, who had just arrived at the back of the villa and was about to "hunt" the clown, stumbled and almost fell. His face turned extremely pale.

The great musician Lucien Evans is dead?!

They, like the clowns, did not anticipate this possibility at all!

As if giving up on chasing the Joker, Natasha handed the matter back to the Night's Watch, closed her eyes and said, "I saw Lucien die in front of me, and the Joker was right next to me. ”

Her tone was bleak and gloomy, with a deep sadness.

Seeing that there was not a single piece of flesh and blood on the lawn in front of the villa, Valdo quietly took a breath, as the Countess Violet and the intimate relationship between the two, since she said that she saw Lucien Evans die with her own eyes, it was impossible for a living musician to emerge in a few days. And look at such a technique. As well as discerning motives, it is really possible to be a clown!

"Your Royal Highness, I can understand your feelings, please don't be too sad. I suppose Mr. Evans, he doesn't want you to forget about happiness either. "Waldo has a cross drawn on his chest. "He's so outstanding. So good that the Lord called him early to continue his music creation on Heavenly Mountain. ”

After a few words of comfort. Waldo's expression became solemn: "However, Your Highness Princess, now I need to ask you some questions and check if the blood belongs to Mr. Evans. It's not about doubting you, it's a normal process of doing things in the court, and I hope you can understand. ”

Before Natasha nodded, Valdo was cautious and vigilant, afraid that she would suddenly lose her mind. Although she is also a sixth-order, she is a top-notch bloodline, and she is in extreme grief and anger, so she may not be able to parry it.

After a few seconds of silence, Natasha opened her eyes, and her silver-purple eyes were cold and deep: "Mr. Valdo, you ask." ”

Her Royal Highness the Princess, who is more manly than many men, Valdo really admired Natasha very much at this time, and while instructing the night watchman who did not pursue the clown to check the blood, he asked in a thoughtful tone: "Your Royal Highness Princess, why did you come here in the middle of the night? Isn't Mr. Evans still recuperating? Even if you are in the middle of the night, cough cough, you can choose the tryst at Sir John's villa, where Mr. Evans is currently living." ”

Natasha suddenly showed a light smile, poignant and beautiful: "This is where he used to live. It was in the piano room of that bedroom that he played the first movement of the moonlight to me, and told me that whenever I saw the moonlight, I would think of him...... So we'd like to reminisce here tonight about the past. ”

Speaking of the back, as if afraid of crying, Natasha covered her mouth.

Valdo, who subconsciously appeared in countless fragrant scenes, scolded himself, how could he think about this without sympathy and kindness at such a time?

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I understand. Waldo nodded slightly.

After he had asked a few more questions, a bishopric night watchman flew up and whispered in his ear, "Moonlight blood, indeed Lucien Evans's blood." ”

"Mr. Valdo, the Joker should not live more than an hour after being slashed by me with all my might, I hope you can find him sooner. Natasha reveals the real reason why she didn't chase the Joker.

Suddenly, she turned her eyes and saw something like an iron ring on the lawn, so she flew down and picked it up, her expression gentle and sweet and sad and gloomy.

"It's exactly the same feeling as the first movement of Moonlight, and I can't imagine seeing such a feminine side of Her Royal Highness the Princess, worthy of the violets of Valorit. The idea came to Waldo and a number of music-loving night watchmen. A stunningly beautiful woman who is usually rigid and heroic suddenly showed this expression, and under the strong contrast, it made people feel extremely beautiful and sad but dreamy.

And what that iron ring was, Valdo knew very well, it was the destroyed Holm crown ring, a relic of Natasha's mother, and now it seemed that it was also a token of love.

"Your Royal Highness, please don't be too sad. It's our fault that we didn't catch the clown in time. Valdo reassured again.

Natasha shook her head: "It has nothing to do with you, you have already decided to execute the clown before, and it was he who ran away on his own." Well, it has nothing to do with the church. ”

Hearing Natasha's words of understanding, Valdo nodded with satisfaction and relaxation, what he was most afraid of was that this incident would cause an irreparable gap between the church and Natasha, the future ruler of Vaorit: "Your Royal Highness, you are really a devout believer, a wise lord. ”

When Waldo and the others began to inspect the villa and the surroundings, Natasha breathed a sigh of relief, the previous "love words" felt weird, a little rich to the point of wanting to vomit, and a little inexplicable.

However, she was relieved, mainly because Valdo did not suspect that things were going in the direction she had hoped.

As a devout believer, Natasha has no psychological barrier to occasionally attack the church to protect her good friends and maintain the status of the nobles, but she is unwilling to use the things she and Lucien planned to ruthlessly destroy the prestige of the church, destroy the relationship between it and the nobles, and destroy its image in the eyes of the people.

"I hope Lucien can understand that everyone has their own persistence and bottom line. ”

............

In a villa, a middle-aged man in a black hooded robe sits in a chair with his eyes glazed out.

"I didn't expect that the Morning Star, who had always been silent, turned out to be a traitor. The sage sighed with a pale and weak face, as if he had lost a lot of blood.

When he had observed the reaction of each apprentice to hearing the news from the Magic Council headquarters, he had actually seen it in general.

The professor in front of him was still shrouded in black robes, and then he reached out and wrote a few words on Morning Star's body with blood:

"The end of the betrayer. ”

"Professor. ”

The sage was a little puzzled by the professor's actions: "Mr. Professor, why do you want to leave a corpse, an epigram, and a code name?

"Now it's going to focus the hatred and attention on you. ”

"To deter other betrayers. Lucien smiled and whispered inwardly, "She's helped me so much, how can you embarrass her." (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
