Iscoran had difficulty answering Agatha's question.

In the past, the Brotherhood of Blades would be a simple one-on-one match for the Golden Shield royal family, and the two sides could always find a balance that everyone was uncomfortable with but acceptable. But now that a new aristocratic force has been added, the difficulty of the three-way game is not as simple as adding one, especially the new aristocracy has sprung up, the momentum is positive, and the edge is revealed.

Under the pressure of the imperial power and the new aristocracy, some of the Brotherhood of Blades, which had gradually lost power, had a great change in mentality, and the internal divisions were becoming more and more serious.

It's easy to go to extremes with a sense of crisis.

The union of the Duke of Celtic and the Temple of the Abyss will have a big problem sooner or later.

"Alas......" Viscount Iscollan sighed, "yes, times are different, perhaps the Brotherhood of Blades has fulfilled the duties entrusted to it by its ancestors. Your Highness, do you want to know what's in that bag? ”

Agatha said, "I can guess without looking...... Is it evidence of a smuggling syndicate of officials and businessmen in Nutao City? ”

"I know that I can't hide everything from Your Highness. This is indeed the evidence of smuggling by officials and merchants in Angry Waves that I have gathered, and they are only the tip of the iceberg. If His Majesty is willing to dig deeper with this evidence, the tax revenue of Angry Waves City can be at least fivefold, or maybe more. ”

Agatha re-fastened the purse and said, "The officials of the palace should also be arrested at least fifty percent, and there are many members of the royal family." This is not a big case you can set up, and my father knows what kind of turmoil it can bring to the Empire. You should know that, too, but you came with this evidence anyway...... What do you want? ”

When Viscount Iscollan was about to answer, the chamberlain came and informed him that His Majesty had summoned ......

The Viscount stood up and said to Agatha, "It doesn't matter anymore, can I ask you to go with you to your majesty?" ”

Agatha stood up and replied, "Yes...... The tax revenue of Angry Waves City can be increased by two times, if not by five times, it is an extremely considerable wealth for the empire.

On the way, you can go on and talk about Detective Meteor, I'd like to hear what all parties in Fury Waves have to say about him. ”

"Yes, Your Highness...... Please ......"

The next day, the city of angry waves.

Jomington arrived almost punctually at work at the Cape Secret Service, and this time he got his wish to meet Detective Meteor as he prepared to go out.

"Detective Meteorite......"

Luke walked past Jomington and said, "Let's go, let's go see Virgil." ”

Jomington didn't show any emotion at Luke's rudeness, and he walked out the door and got into the CIA Detective's car.

At the start of the convoy, he asked Luke, who was sitting next to him, "Why didn't the little girl named Sandpaper I saw last time at the Palace of the Sicissai come along?" ”

Luke knew he was tempting to ask the kestrels, so he replied, "Sandpaper is just a regular mechanic here. The last time I encircled and suppressed the Abyss Mage, all the war machines dispatched needed to be overhauled, and the mechanical maintenance room was very busy. ”

Jomington continued: "That girl is very strong, and being a mechanical mechanic is too talented. If you're willing to let her come to work with me, Inspector, for the sake of the first assistant-sama, I promise you a very good reward. ”

"Hahaha......" Luke laughed and said, "You're looking for a kestrel." I can tell you the truth, she's in my hands, and I've helped her recover some of her memories, and I know what your Cross Foundation did to these girls. Except that you have a good reputation, what you do is not much different from the Abyss Temple.

Now I have enough evidence to ruin you. ”

Jomington didn't expect Luke to admit it like this, and he said threateningly: "I don't understand some of your words. I ask you to hand over the kestrel to me immediately, I am her legal guardian, and I reserve the right to prosecute you for kidnapping and many other crimes. ”

"Then sue me...... Whether it's in the Court of Angry Waves or in the Supreme Court of the Empire, I'm with you. I have a car of information to play with you, it's up to you to see if you dare to play with me. ”

Jomington certainly didn't dare to make a big deal out of it, especially since he wasn't sure how much evidence the CIA had. The kestrel girls are too young, and once they are put on the surface, it will be a storm that will not end.

He couldn't have imagined that someone would be able to snatch the kestrel away silently under heavy protection. And that sandpaper is obviously the girl who killed Professor Greyfary, she is also a survivor of the eternal secret of life, and she is still a very special existence, and the three rescued girls all show a sense of dependence on her.

This is the subconscious that is difficult to suppress even with brain modification devices.

"You have already caused a lot of trouble for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess in Angry Waves City, and if you don't hand over the kestrel and sandpaper to me, you will cause even more trouble for Your Highness."

Jomington shifted the direction of the threat.

Luke scoffed: "Don't you think it's funny when you say that?" I really want to see what trouble you can give Her Royal Highness the eldest princess?

Jomington, kind reminder...... Let's think about how I'm going to get out of Angry Waves City alive. ”

"Are you threatening the life of a high-ranking Imperial official?"

"I'm making it clear, I'm reminding you. When we arrived, we went to see Councillor Virgil and were looking forward to what he had to say to us. ”

The convoy was parked at 102 Organ Street.

A big war has left a beautiful little building in tatters, and even after days of cleaning, there are still piles of broken bricks and all kinds of furniture fragments everywhere.

The Haijiao District Intelligence Bureau has bought the ownership of the land from Councillor Ibur at a very low price. Imperial agents have moved in, using a few relatively intact rooms as offices, and the cellar in the northeast corner has been converted into a dungeon.

Walking through the ruins, Luke led Jomington into the heavily guarded dungeon. Inside the dungeon were cells separated by a stainless steel fence, and Councilor Virgil was locked in the middle.

As soon as he entered the dungeon, Jominton noticed the anomaly of the atmosphere, the extreme depression and the dreadful feeling that made the flesh beat. This is not a prison cell at all, it is a spiritual mill. It can grind down people's spiritual defenses little by little, grasp the most fragile nerves, and crush them cruelly.

Jomington could already imagine what Virgil would be like at the moment, but when he met Fergil, he realized that his imagination was too optimistic.

"You can't be so cruel to an Imperial nobleman! I ask you to release Virgil immediately! I will take him back to the Imperial Capital, he is entitled to treatment befitting his status, the Supreme Court of the Empire has accepted the case, this is the letter of order from the Chancellor.

Detective Meteor, let them go! ”

Jomington has been going to the Cape Secret Intelligence Bureau every day these days, asking to see Virgil, just to prepare to take him out as soon as he sees him.

The letter of order from the Supreme Court of Justice of the Reich is shown to Luke, who must release him unless ordered by order of the Emperor.

Just get Virgil out and get rid of all accusations against him, and then it's time to fight back.

As usual, this is indeed the case.

But Jomington is facing a "fake" detective.

Luke took the Chancellor's order letter, read it through it, and let the gluttony breathe fire.

It was very quiet at one point.

Luke said, "Lord Jomington, where is the Chancellor's order letter?" Take it out and show it to me, and as long as it's true, I'll release him immediately. ”

Jomington looked at his empty hands, and the falling ashes...... Dumbfounded!

He has been an official all his life, and he has never seen such a bold one.

"You, you dare to burn the letter of the judge's order!"

Luke crushed the large piece of paper that had fallen to the ground and said, "Lord Jomington, don't slander an upright senior agent of the Empire. When did I burn the Chancellor's Order Letter? How dare I burn the Chancellor's order letter! ”

Jomington didn't expect Luke to be so shameless, he pointed at the Imperial agent who came in with him and said angrily, "They all saw it! ”

Luke asked the agent, "What do you see?" ”

The spies, all temporary workers recruited from the docks, shook their heads one by one and said, "We didn't see anything." ”

"I burned a piece of paper."

"Yes, the Inspector burned a piece of paper."

Luke asked again, "What do you say if you go to the Supreme Court of the Reich to testify?" ”

The agents said, "We don't know how to read, we really don't know how to read." ”

Jomington never expected that the dignified Imperial spy would dare to commit perjury in such a matter, and he angrily pointed to the entourage with him and said, "My people have seen that I gave you the Justice's order letter, and you burned it!" ”

Luke sneered: "You say it's your people, they can still testify in court?" ”

"You, you ......" Jomin's face turned red with anger: "I will definitely sue you, and the Supreme Court of the Empire will definitely make a fair judgment." ”

"This will be until you can get out of Angry Waves alive." Luke said to Jomington with contempt, "I'm going to interrogate Virgil now, do you go back to the Chancellor's order letter, or do you sit in there?" ”

Jomington instantly calmed down.

A person who dares to burn the letter of the judge's order dares to kill a high-ranking official of the empire? Even if he is a staff member of the Imperial Cabinet, even if he is a nobleman of his empire.

Look at Virgil, who has gone mad in the prison, look at the ashes on the ground, what this Meteorite Inspector can't do.

He has the ability to silently rob the kestrels, and he has the ability to assassinate himself silently.

even killed his own group of people directly in this prison.

He is so fearless, there must be an eldest princess to endorse him. On behalf of the eldest princess, the action in the city of angry waves is very resolute, no matter what obstruction, she will also nail this nail here.

And the reason why the eldest princess did this...... Is it what she means, or is it what His Majesty means?

I have to admit that many things in Angry Waves City are very excessive. The volume of trade has increased year after year, but tax revenue has remained unchanged all year round. Shousuke-sama also knew that if he did this, he would definitely touch the limit of His Majesty's patience, but there were too many mouths to eat on this plate.

If you want to pay more taxes, you will inevitably have to move the interests of many people.

The interests of these people are moved, and the position of the first assistant is unstable.
