Chapter 13: Going Crazy
Looking at that copy, the evil thoughts in Michelle's heart became more and more vigorous.
In order to slander Allen, this copywriter exaggerated the strength of the pharmacist Niru a lot, and fabricated a lot of specious things, if it weren't for Michelle himself being a well-informed mage, I'm afraid it would be difficult to see the flaws in it. The most amazing thing is that this copy actually investigated and recorded all of Allen's previous affairs, and it recorded that Allen had not learned any knowledge of alchemy before......
One thing, not afraid of people who don't understand it, but afraid of people who really understand it!
Michelle was defeated by Allen in public, and now he is still holding his breath in his heart, and when he sees these documents, the idea of revenge on Allen in his heart gradually swells!
"You two, help me get Niru's apprentice Anil!" Michelle shouted excitedly.
It took less than half an hour for Anil, the apprentice of the pharmacist Niru, to arrive. This is a short and fat young man, with two thin eyes that look insidious. It was the first time he had seen a big man like Michelle, his expression twisted and uneasy.
Michelle waved his men back and looked at Anil with interest.
"You're Anil, the apprentice of the Niru Apothecary?"
"Yes, yes, Lord Deacon. Anil cramped.
"Relax, don't be nervous...... The petition you submitted to the temple says that Alan could be the murderer who killed your teacher and then stole your teacher's research?" said Michelle, picking up a few papers.
Anil was even more uneasy when he saw that Michelle was holding what he had written. Alan is a papal deacon and the second son of Raymond, Grand Duke Lionheart, and what the consequences of slandering such a person will be after being found out, Anil certainly knows. He looked at the papers in Michelle's hand uneasily, and in the end, greed triumphed over uneasiness. At the thought of being able to claim a large sum of money from Allen, and maybe even get the formula for the Deer Snake Pill, he gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down: "Yes, I'm so skeptical!"
Michelle pretended to casually look through the documents in his hand, and said, "Tell me, why are you so suspicious?"
"Lord Deacon, my teacher is one of the many alchemists in Pompeii, and he has created a lot of Qi replenishing and healing pills, you know this. Anil said this, looked at Michelle, and saw Michelle nodding slowly, he suddenly came to his senses, and continued, "My teacher has actually been researching an elixir in recent years, and he told me that after this elixir is developed, both warriors and mages can regain their strength after eating it. I often see him calculating recipes for medicinal herbs, and the words I see most often are 'deer antler' and 'snake blood'...... My teacher had been studying hard for several years, and he was about to succeed in his research, but two months ago, a group of robbers came out of nowhere, broke in and killed him! His research codex was also robbed by the bandits! Master Michelle, not long after that, Alan said that he had obtained the pill of the deer snake pill by chance...... Not only does the time coincide, but Allen's elixir is called 'Deer Snake Pill', which means that the formula also matches!"
"But I remember when you reported the crime before, you only said that the money in the pharmacy was robbed, not that the Niru Apothecary's codex was also robbed......" Michelle looked at Anil with a scrutinizing gaze.
Anil's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately said, "I was too nervous before, so I missed this detail...... Without waiting for Michelle to reply, he immediately clenched his fists and said loudly, "Lord Michelle, the results of my teacher's painstaking research for several years cannot be misappropriated like this! My teacher is a great pharmacist, and he invented this elixir for the benefit of the world, not for money! Lord Deacon, I am not for money or fame...... If I blame Allen, I'm willing to be punished, but if my guess is correct, please do justice to my teacher who died in vain!"
The more Anil spoke, the more excited he became, as if it were true.
Michelle just listened quietly, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Do you dare to confront Alan in court?"
"Dare!"
"Okay, you go back first, and I'll do justice for you. ”
After Anil left, Michelle clenched his fist hard and jumped up from his chair.
"It's hopeful!"
Immediately, Michelle felt that this was not very reliable, and it was impossible for him to frame Allen alone. After thinking about it, he went back to Barrick's office.
Barrick was writing in there, and when he saw Michelle coming, he stopped his pen and asked Michelle what was wrong. Michelle paused, and then told her what had just happened and what she had thought.
Balik suddenly became furious: "You are crazy! You actually have this kind of thought! I, Balik, act in a fair and upright manner, how can I have a son like you! I have taught you every day since you were a child, and you are a good person who does not deceive the heavens, and you are the wind in your ears? Alan won you by luck for a while, but you can't use crooked ways to deal with him because of this! If you tell me this again, I will break your legs!"
Michelle said with a painful face: "Father, I don't want to either...... But as you can see, you can't suppress Allen with just and honest means. He climbs up step by step, and sooner or later he will step me down, and then the power of the Ye Luo vein will increase......"
Barrick was silent for a moment. After a while, he changed his tone and said, "How sure are you?"
Michelle had an excited smile on his face, he knew that Barrick was supporting him! After thinking about it, he said, "Fifty percent sure." ”
"It is impossible to have such a success rate. There are not many fools who believe what others say...... Moreover, His Majesty Andorra is still in Yanjing, and with him protecting Allen, you can't hurt Allen's foundation by doing this. Barrick analyzed carefully.
Michelle had already thought of this question and hurriedly said: "There are not many fools in the world, but there are not many people who do not bring letters! Father, Allen is too popular and has become the target of public criticism. Although there are many people who worship him, there are even more people who instinctively reject him like him! There are always some people who are ambitious and talented, and they feel that what others have achieved must be shady and must have been obtained through dishonorable means...... It's not that they can't come to a correct conclusion when they analyze it carefully, but such a person will never seriously analyze it when he sees that others have better grades than himself! Allen can even cure Iverson's daughter, and he must be proficient in pharmacology. He said it was a recipe for the potion that he got by accident, but I think it was something he had researched himself. But there must be only a minority of people like me! Most people are absolutely jealous of him, saying that he is nothing more than a recipe obtained by chance by good fortune! As long as he is caught in the case, most of those people will fall into the hole! Even if he is proven innocent later, those who doubt him will not believe him, but will suspect that he used his family connections to exonerate him......"
Barrick listened quietly, the solemn look on his face fading away. He smiled and said, "Then you can do it, I will try my best to help you." I've seen that document, and it doesn't have a codex that says Niru stolen, so I'll help you fix it later. ”
"Thank you, father!" Michelle said overjoyed.
One day later, in the afternoon, the Lionheart Family Magic Shop.
Alan had just returned from shopping with Jenny.
He sat down in his chair with an indescribable feeling in his heart. Every time he was with Jenny, he felt very comfortable. Jenny is a gentle and considerate woman, and no matter what happens, she will help him to do it properly, and he doesn't have to bother with it at all......
"Is this the legendary 'good wife' type of woman?" Alan thought of the saying 'a good wife in the family, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of amusement'.
He picked up the ledger and was about to look through it, when suddenly an apprentice came in and said that Michelle had brought someone to him.
"What's the matter with them?" said Allen.
"I don't know...... However, he brought a lot of people with him, and it seemed that he had bad intentions. The apprentice said worriedly.
Alan was puzzled, but still said, "Let them in." ”
The other side.
"Michelle, your slanderous methods are so bad that even I can see it. Charlie whispered, a little contempt in his eyes.
Charles's father was an elder of the Inquisition, and he was close to Ye Luo, but he was at odds with Barrick. Michelle is on the Mage team. In order to bring a member of the mage team for interrogation, the Holy Crusade must be arrested. Michelle submitted the matter to the next level, but he didn't expect to come with Charlie, who didn't agree with him.
"Shut up, Charlie. Michelle exasperated.
Charlie closed his mouth when he heard this, and looked to the side with a faint smile.
The apprentice came out and told the two that they could go in, and the two left their men outside, and then went into the inner hall side by side.
"Michelle, what are you bringing so many people to me for?" Alan looked at Michelle and said coldly.
"Alan, people are doing it, the sky is watching! Don't think that no one knows about your business if you do it secretly!" Michelle said solemnly.
"What do you mean?" said Allen.
"You are suspected of leading someone to assassinate the apothecary Niru two months ago, and robbing him of the recipe for the potion, which can restore mana and fighting energy after taking it, and the main ingredients are deer antler velvet and snake blood...... You see what I mean? We're taking you to the investigation right now. Michelle said lightly.
"This is slander!"
Michelle looked directly at Allen and said solemnly: "Slander is not slander, you know it yourself...... Alan, Master Niru invented this potion for the benefit of the world, you killed Master Niru and snatched his formula, but you did it to make money for yourself, you are really not human!"
"I see, Michelle, it's your doing. But, Charlie, I didn't expect you to be involved in this......" Alan stood up and looked at the two of them.
"No, it's none of me's business, I'm here on orders. Oh, Deacon Allen, I'm on the same side as you. Although Charlie had a little trouble with Allen, he chose to side with Allen at this time.
Shout!
An ice arrow suddenly shot out, piercing the unsuspecting Charlie's neck from the side!
After Charlie was shot, his pupils shrank and he slowly fell to the ground. Blood spurted from the wound on his neck, staining the floor red in an instant. His expression was shocked, obviously not expecting to be attacked by his companions......
Michelle took the scroll of the water magic 'Ice Arrow' and laughed madly: "Haha! Alan, you not only arrested! You killed Charlie! Now you're finished!"
