It wasn't until the squires had left that Hart was relieved.

"Kumarqing, you said that Viscount William can really recover this time?"

"Let's treat it as a gamble, everyone is happy if we win the bet, and if we lose the bet, we still have the old duke to rely on. ”

Kumar replied with his head bowed.

"Is there anything else you can do about this 'rumor'? or we just make the matter of Alonso public?"

Hart still dismisses the joint statement as a rumor, wondering how to refute it.

"Your Majesty, we can't do this until the Empire believes Viscount William's words. To be honest, we don't need to care too much about what ordinary people in the kingdom think, we need to pay attention to those nobles who are not firm enough, and the remaining members of the royal family, too... ”

At this point, Kumar stopped talking, but he believed that Hart understood what he was trying to say.

"You continue to do the internal surveillance, and by the way, draw up a list according to the situation. As for my siblings, I'll talk to them. ”

Ha said pointedly.

"Then the old slave will go back and sort out the list first. ”

Kumar obviously didn't want to get too involved in the bloody storm of the royal family at this time, this kind of thing has always been something that can only be done but not said, just listen to Hart's orders.

In the next few days, the joint statement was gradually transmitted from the Federation, intentionally or unintentionally, and instantly spread like a raging fire, and for a while, the atmosphere in the entire kingdom became tense and restless again.

Because the spread was so rapid and widespread, Kumar was so busy that within two days, the Inspectorate's black prison was almost filled with "dissidents" caught by the spies he sent out, and he had to coordinate with the Police Department to free up several prisons for the suspects who were still being sent in.

At the same time, Hart began to travel back and forth to the mansions of his siblings, and almost all of them behaved obediently after Hart ascended the throne.

Although Hart did not put them under house arrest on the surface, they all pretended to stay at home in the imminent future, almost without leaving the door, without stepping out, and even stopping their previous communication, they didn't want to become the second third under Hart's knife.

But in the past two days, Hart's visit has made them feel like pins and needles again.

Soon, Hart's youngest brother, Prince Eleven, reported to the nation that the Chuck Federation and the Silver Eagle Republic were spreading rumors, that he had seen the old king's death, and that the old king had passed the throne to Hart at his last days.

Under this overture, Hart will also reciprocate, announcing that Xiao Eleven can go to the fief on the same day, and by the way, he also increased the area of Xiao Eleven's fief a lot.

Seeing that the advantage was taken advantage of by the youngest guy, the other princes and princesses also couldn't wait to jump out one by one, supporting His Majesty Hart and condemning the Federation's rumor-mongering.

After this operation, although Hart did not claim that they could also go back to their own restaurant, the surveillance of them was also relaxed a lot.

In this way, through the continuous arrest of people, coercion and temptation of his brothers and sisters, monitoring the every move of the nobles, etc., the kingdom did not set off a wave of rebellion against him, and the few chaos in the days were still caused by the arrest.

But just when Hart and Kumar breathed a sigh of relief, a bad news came, Viscount William, who was given his death.

This matter needs to go back to the time when William returned to the empire ten days ago.

When William decided to return to China, he not only sent someone to inform the Hartland royal family, but more importantly, the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as well as the Grand Duke Carroll.

After he executed Alonso, he sent another message back, saying that he had found the real leaker.

This also surprised the chaotic military intelligence organizations, and the emperor personally ordered William to return to China as soon as possible to report on his work, and asked all departments to fully cooperate.

You must know that the supreme level of the god general level is not an ordinary cat and dog, even a country with a solid foundation like the empire can only maintain the number of four to five people in each generation, and with the ordinary supreme of nearly fifteen people, it can achieve the point of resisting the silver eagle externally and suppressing the allies internally.

This generation can be seen from the name, there are only four god generals, there are only four, and another god general, Dali Sandro, was killed by his own ability, which killed the second-ranked dark god general, which made the empire not only lose face, but also decline a lot in external deterrence.

William is indeed the first suspect, but there are also four or five others who are also suspected, all of whom are confidential personnel in the Empire who know the whereabouts of the Dark God, and because they are all still in the Empire, these people are under strict scrutiny by the Military Intelligence Agency, and Adam Matthews, who replaced Sandro as the temporary Grand Witch Priest, has also been entrusted by the Emperor as the final judge of this review operation.

It's just that this guy was really frightened by the tragic death of his predecessor, and every time he saw these suspects, he had to wait for a long time before examining these hapless suspects in a place full of stand-ins.

He didn't want to be completely reduced to ashes like his predecessor, so every suspect had to wait a long time to meet Adam Matthews and be vetted by him, usually for about five or six days.

In his schedule, there was no name William, and he didn't want to get too involved in this matter, but he couldn't turn a blind eye to His Majesty's orders, so he was here all day long.

In the original plan of the empire, William was the second group of people to be investigated, and he did not know that even if he did not offer to return to China, the personnel directly sent by the imperial family to arrest him were already on the way.

After receiving two letters from William, which were less than an hour apart, the arrest team was also changed to escorts, of course, there was no lack of surveillance.

Gathering the power of the whole empire, his journey back home was extremely fast, and the imperial military even directly sent a number of fast airships to relay along the road.

This airship was named the Fly class because of its small size, equipped with only the necessary propulsion and reconnaissance facilities, and even the airship had only four members, three of whom were responsible for piloting and one was responsible for operating the diagnostic equipment.

This design makes the speed of the fly class very fast, several points faster than the Dusk class of the Federation, and it can be said that as long as the plane does not appear in front of the world, it will be the world of the fly class.

In this way, more than two dozen Fly-class ships were placed one after another, and only the personnel in charge of piloting were on it, leaving a place for William.

When William arrived at the territory of a minor principality within the Holy Alliance, the fly-class airship that had come to pick him up arrived, followed by a never-before-seen airship relay.

When William jumped from the cockpit of the fly class for the twentieth time, the exhaustion of jealousy made his feet weak, and he almost fell on the take-off and landing field, and it can be seen that even if he was only riding in an airship, it also consumed a lot of energy from this transcendent powerhouse.

The members of the last two airships that were in charge of waiting for him here immediately helped him up. "Lord Viscount, you're all right. We'll fly one more takeoff and landing. ”

William, whose face turned blue, also knew that he could only insist on insisting and persisting now, and only in this way could he clear his suspicion as soon as possible.

"It's okay, help me up. ”

William said weakly.

By the time he was helped onto the airship, he had almost lost his strength, and it was only by strapped to the airship's seat that he didn't roll around in the tight space.

But even so, in William's hands, he still clung to the cloth bag holding Alonso's head, and he probably did it before leaving, otherwise the head would have rotted and deteriorated.

Finally, the scenery of the imperial capital came into William's eyes again, and his eyes gradually brightened.

But there is neither his arrogance in front of Hart, nor his groveling and pretending to be calm in front of God, nor the tyranny and viciousness of his killing of Alonso, but only the joy of seeing home. This made William's whole person seem to come to life, and his mood was very happy.

"Wait, bastards, I, Lord William, are back, and when I wash off the dirty water that has been splashed on my body, I will let you spy on the true Duke's family. ”

In the bottom of William's heart, he is secretly planning how to take revenge on those guys who fell into the well.

"All right, Lord William, please get in the car. ”

William's good mood was interrupted by a tall and sturdy middle-aged man.

At this time, the fly-class airship had been quietly docked there, and the pilots in the cabin had disappeared, leaving only the middle-aged uncle who had just come in.

Without showing his papers, wearing the traditional trench coat of the Military Intelligence Agency, and without any accessories to prove his identity, the man just stood and looked at William with a blank face.

"Who are you?"

William swears he has never seen this guy. But the momentum on his body makes it difficult for William's strength to be brought into play. Even if this person is not the Supreme, it is not far from the Supreme.

He knew that he would never have a chance to return home, so this man should have been the one who had been sent to escort him.

"MIA, Paparapoulos. ”

The middle-aged man obviously had no interest in any anxiety with this guilty man, and he didn't even pay attention to him, if it wasn't for William's personal questioning, it is estimated that he would not have reported his family.

"I'm sorry, I'm also from the MIA, but I don't think I've seen you?"

William tried to remember if he had seen or heard of the name, but in the end he gave up, and had to ask the man to show his ID.

The man, who called himself Paparapoula, was obviously impatient, glared at William viciously, and reluctantly took out his work card.

"What? You're the new deputy director, shouldn't it be the one from the Sauron family?"

When William saw the document, he knew who it was, but new doubts came to his mind.

"I don't need to tell you anything, William Carroll, handcuff yourself, take your salute and go with me.

After Paparapoulos finished speaking, he returned to his car with a proud face.

William looked around, he knew that this was indeed a secret base of the Military Intelligence Agency, and some of the staff members in the base were also known to him, so the identity of this Lapros should be fine.

He had to follow, carrying with him his only salute, the small backpack with Alonso's head, and the only one he could use to turn the tables.

It was an eight-seater station wagon, and there was only one driver left in the car except for Paparapoulos, and it seemed that this guy didn't think it was a problem at all whether he could see William.

The car quickly drove out of the base, but instead of heading in the direction of the imperial capital, it came to a satellite city forty kilometers south of the empire, where most of the area has been converted into a new prison for felons, and this prison only caters to the most extreme guys.

It's just that these transformations have not yet been completed, so they have been temporarily requisitioned and have become the work point to investigate the real cause of the death of the dark god this time, and it can be seen that from time to time there are agents in and out of different unit uniforms.

After entering the base, the car drove to the innermost part of an underground facility before coming to a stop.

"Bring your stuff and come with me, waste. ”

It's still so unkind, especially the last sentence has begun to scold.

William held back the anger in his heart and decided not to meet this arrogant fellow.

It was only when he was put in a separate cell that William realized that things were not quite what he had imagined.

What William didn't know was that the day before he returned, the people of the Military Intelligence Agency found an important clue, that is, a senior intelligence officer of the Kingdom of Amusa had told his family the news of the Dark God General of Amusa, and it is reported that he said it when he was drunk, and as a supporter of the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Amusa, he was also dissatisfied with the Empire's brutal interference in the Kingdom of Amusa at that time.

So when this situation was discovered, the position of the first suspect was transferred from William to this guy.

The advantage of this for William was that he did not have to go to the confinement cell that was intended for him, and there was a cell where hundreds of people could be held for him to play.

But there is also a downside, that is, there is no time to take care of him now, except for the caretaker and the aunt who delivers the food, William can hardly see a living person, if he is not wearing a spiritual power restraint device, he would have wanted to lift the table a long time ago.

As a result, the smell on the untreated skull grew stronger, and even the underground prison area was filled with swarms of flies flying around in pairs.

Finally, when William couldn't stand the flies anymore, he was arraigned.

It's the arraignment, the suspicion of that Amusa guy has been cleared after these days of intensive interrogation, he did drink and lose his words, but all the subjects who heard his words found that no one caused the second leak of this news after the empire's soul search, in fact, these people are just listening to a fresh, how can they know what kind of mission the dark god will be, in fact, even this intelligence officer is not very clear, only that he is an accomplice to the mastermind who forced their prime minister to death.

Of course, this kind of person who is disloyal to the empire has no point in living, and dozens of people in the family go to Huangquan because of his drunkenness, and there is really no more unlucky than him.

At this time, William no longer dared to hold Alonso's head to his chest, but tied it with a long rope and came to the interrogation room.

It was not Papasopoulos who was in charge of interrogating him, but an interrogator whom William knew very well.

The two of them first stared at each other, and for reasons that knew each other in detail, they knew that it would be difficult to get any effective information from their opponents.

The next picture is quite boring, an old fritter and another old fritter are there to lay out the facts, reason, and argue with each other about whether there is a leak or not.

"You said that I leaked the secret, then you come up with evidence, you ask us to talk about all kinds of evidence, but aren't all what you say conjecture?"

Although William couldn't stand the smell, his brain was still very good, and he had repeatedly prepared for today's interrogation in the past two days.

The interrogator was forced to stop by William's words, so he could only bite the bullet.

"Mr. William, you are still an old intelligence officer, do we need your testimony? We just don't want to get in trouble, what falls into the hands of the MIA is that there is meat on the chopping board, and you still want evidence, isn't it funny?"

This embarrassing person became William, how could he not know this, many of them were drawn up by him personally.

Just as the scene came to a standstill, Mr. Dalí, who had been sent by the Empire to make the final judgment, finally arrived at the scene at this time, and according to Adam Matthews, he had been inspired by fate.

"Let's go, there's no need to waste time here. Let's go straight to the Heavenly Temple. ”

Adam's face was red and he said to the people present, apparently as if he had just experienced something happy.

Prophecy is a very serious matter, but it is much easier to judge only a person's past, and the only distant reason for them to dismiss the prison and replace the puppet is the fear that they will accidentally see something terrible and play themselves to death like their current superiors.

As a result of hearing the news of the arrival of the witch festival, the royal attendants, the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and the two strongest surviving powerhouses of the Sauron family who had been waiting in this place gathered at the gate of the Heavenly Prison.

They didn't communicate, just silently focused their eyes on Adam's body, and even William, who was still lying there, didn't let them look at it more.

"Squire Tom, I'm about to begin. ”

Not as strong as his predecessor, Adam knew who his real parents were, so naturally he first asked the squire for his opinion.

In fact, since the last leak was caused by a chamberlain, the royal family's trust in these people has dropped a lot, but the acolyte sent this time is really capable.

He nodded at the attentive Adam, then sat still, keeping his stinking expression.

When Adam heard this, he began to dance the witch dance, which is what he does best.

Witch priests can communicate with the will of the world through singing, dancing, or even just asking and listening, but everyone is different at what they are good at.

Just looking at this burly witch priest jumping around like a big horse monkey, people who were waiting for the results couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

If Ye Wenqin was here, he would be able to find that this dance might be similar to the coffin-carrying dance he had seen, and even four or five people could dance at the same time with only one person here.

After about ten minutes of dancing, Adam finally stopped, and at this time his eyes were blank, according to the witch priest, this was the front end of the Eye of the Heavens.

He kept this expression and walked step by step to William, who was standing downstairs.

When he looked at William, he couldn't help but be surprised, "What's going on, why is the reaction so strong." “

His celestial eye is based on the things he identifies as a criterion, and is measured by the will of the world himself, and if the object of observation passes the measurement of the world consciousness, it will appear red, otherwise it will be black.

In his eyes, William's face was completely black, and there was not a trace of red in sight. This shows that there must be something wrong with this guy William.

"Viscount William, please tell me who the real leaker is. ”

William in front of him could really feel the coercion brought to him by Adam's witch sacrifice at this time, this coercion was not actually Adam's own, but the coercion that leaked out of the world's will when he communicated with the will of the world.

With some difficulty, he raised the head in his hand and shouted loudly.

"That's it, Alonso Rogrigues. He gained my trust by approaching me, helping me, and then starting to stab me at this time, it must have been him. ”

"No, Viscount William, I don't see anything in this skull against you in the past. On the contrary, your face shows that you did leak information. ”

Adam's words, like the judge's final verdict, left William on the ground.

As an Astor, he knew the power of the witch priesthood, so he would not have asked to come back and confront it, because he firmly believed that he had not leaked the secret.

But at this time, Adam, the current first person of the witch festival, said that the news leaked from him, and Alonso, who he thought was a traitor and had been slaughtered with his own hands, was innocent, how could he accept it.

"This can't be, something must be wrong, how can I be a leaker, you must be wrong. William shouted hysterically.
