Chapter 363: Interrogation
"No, no, No, Your Holiness, I'm not lying, what I said is true." At this time, Duke Seleto was of course holding on to Pope Soleden's thigh, of course he couldn't believe Ye Junwen's enemy, the other party would definitely find trouble for himself, and all he could do was to make Pope Soleden believe in his words, and he could escape.
"I'm not here to listen to you shirk your responsibilities." Pope Soleden here didn't say anything polite to Duke Seleto, "This operation has led to the death of more than 120 knights of our Holy See, and the bigger danger is that there are still many spies lurking inside our Holy See, if we don't find them, our Holy See will suffer even greater losses." So, I must know all this from your mouth, who is causing trouble with our church, what their purpose is, and I will use any means to do so. ”
"All I know is that their organization is called the Hidden Ones, and I don't know what kind of organization they are." Duke Seleto immediately said, "It's true, they didn't tell me too much, that Reed, originally followed the eldest prince, and then he had frequent contact with me......"
"Really?" Ye Junwen said with a smile, "But the news we got doesn't seem to be like this...... The spy we caught told us that he was introduced to Reed by you 3 years ago, which means that you had been in contact with Reed at least 3 years ago. But you said you only met Reed after you met the Great Prince, but the Great Prince is said to have been exiled......"
Duke Seleto was also a little panicked, and hurriedly said: "Yes, the eldest prince was exiled four years ago, but in fact, I have always been in contact with him...... At that time, the eldest prince was already in contact with that organization, and then he introduced Reed to me. Three years ago...... By the way, speaking of which, three years ago, I remembered, and indeed Reid asked me to introduce the emissary of the Holy See to him...... But I didn't care about it after that......"
"Who else did you introduce to Reed?" Pope Soledon asked, Reed obviously won't show up on his own initiative, so most of the work of the introducer should be done by the Duke of Seleto, that is, if you ask him, you will know who has come into contact with Reed.
"Yes...... A lot ......," said the Duke of Seletto.
"Write down the list." Pope Soledon said, of course, after writing it, let his subordinates focus on these few.
Duke Seleto said that not everyone remembers, so after thinking about it, he wrote down this person who can still remember it a little. Pope Soledon glanced at it, he didn't know all the people on the list, after all, there were so many people in the Holy See, and not every Pope knew him. Anyway, let your subordinates take the list away first, and start looking for the people on the list.
"Your Excellency, I'm really not lying, that's all I know." Duke Seleto said.
"Really? You don't think there's something you want to explain. Ye Junwen said suddenly, "You said before, the reason why that organization is still here to save you is because of something in your hand, what is it?" ”
"That'...... That'......" Duke Seleto hesitated for a moment, then said, "Your Excellency, if I confess this matter, can you promise to spare my life?" ”
Of course, he said this to Pope Soleden, Ye Junwen definitely didn't believe it, he would definitely be killed if he fell into his hands, but if Pope Soledon guaranteed it, he might still have a way to live.
"It's okay if you don't confess, I wish you hadn't confessed, you have caused me so much trouble, I really want to see you ...... by the Pontifical Law Enforcement Team" Ye Junwen was even frightened here, but before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Pope Soledon next to him.
"Okay, I can say yes." Pope Soledon said, "Tell me what it is. ”
Duke Seleto is actually struggling a little, this is the last thing to save his life, if he gives this thing out, he won't have any hole cards. But he is really afraid of the Holy See's forced confession, he has heard of the Holy See's criminal law, and he estimates that he can't bear it, so it is better to be forced to confess now than to put forward a condition to save his life. Ye Junwen didn't believe it, but Pope Soleden was a pope, and what he said was a holy decree to some extent, and there was no joke, so Duke Seleto at least felt that the Pope's words could still be believed.
"Actually, I've always wondered what Reed was helping us for." Duke Seleto said, "At first he promised to help the Grand Prince ascend to the throne, I thought that the other party just wanted to be a servant of the dragon, or simply to support a puppet emperor, but then I found out that the other party's purpose was not to take the throne. Reed also had little loyalty to the Great Prince, and the idea of framing the royal family for beast blood was indeed the one they came up with, and the potion was indeed provided by them. ”
"And what is their purpose?" Pope Soledon asked.
"They're supposed to be looking for something in the palace." Duke Seleto continued, "They have something they want in the Terran palace, so they will help us capture the main city, they don't mean to help me or the eldest prince sit on the throne, they just want to enter the main city. ”
"Looking for something?" Ye Junwen narrowed his eyes and said, "I remember when you poisoned the emperor and them, but you poisoned every member of the royal family in the palace, which means that you already have a large number of spies in the imperial city, if you want to find something, let the spies shoot is not over, why do you deliberately capture the palace?" ”
"Indeed, we have a lot of spies, in fact, we know a lot of information in the palace." "But those spies probably can't find it, so they want to take the palace." After we captured the palace, Reed asked my men to help them find something, and they looked anxious......"
"What's that?" Pope Soledon immediately asked.
"According to Reed, a round slate ......"
"Round slate?" Ye Junwen was slightly stunned, and glanced at Pope Soledon next to him. Of course, Pope Soledon immediately understood what Ye Junwen meant, and he knew all about the previous report, didn't Ye Junwen find a triangular slate when he was in the Dwarf Kingdom, so now although the slate that Reed is looking for is round, it is all slate, and it seems to have a relationship.
"What about that thing? Listening to your tone before, it seems that you got it? Ye Junwen asked.
"No...... We didn't find it at all. "We searched almost the entire Imperial City, and although we found a lot of similar things, he said no, so in the end we didn't find what we wanted, and then your army attacked, so in the end we had to retreat." ”
"Didn't find it, but didn't you say the thing was in your hands?" Ye Junwen asked.
"Yes, I asked them to come to my rescue, saying that what they were looking for was in my hands, but it was a lie to them." "I haven't found anything at all," said Duke Seleto, "but if I don't say it's in my hands, I'm afraid they won't come to my rescue, so I'll say it's mine, but it looks like ...... They didn't seem to believe it, and it was obvious that they wanted to kill me......"
Ye Junwen probably understood that the Duke of Seleto lied that he had got the things, so those people would come to attack the escort troops. As for why he did it to Duke Seleto, I don't know if he knew that the thing was no longer in his hands, or if he wanted to kill him and turn over the body by himself or something.
"In other words, this thing is still in the palace now?" Ye Junwen asked.
"That's how it should be." Duke Seleto immediately said, "But I don't know where it is, I've searched everywhere I can, even this treasure room ......."
"I TN knows that you have moved all the treasures and sold them, I really want to kill you!" Ye Junwen said.
"Rest quiet, Serina-sama." Pope Soleden, who was next to him, said, "This person may still be of some use, and if you keep him, you might be able to ask for some information about that organization." ”
"Don't worry, Your Excellency the Pope, I'm so kind, although I say I'm going to kill him, but I can't actually do it." Ye Junwen said.
"That's just as well." Pope Soledon nodded, "Lord Serina, let's go out for a while." ”
Of course, Ye Junwen also understood what Pope Soledon meant, so he went out with the other party, and Pope Soledon immediately said: "That slate...... It seems that this matter really has something to do with the things on Mazdor's side......"
"In other words, the black-clothed organization that the dwarves encountered is actually the same group of people as the organization they met this time." Ye Junwen said, "Then they searched for the slate in order to resurrect their so-called god, that is, the white monster...... This seems to be a bit of a problem. Last time, that monster, although it was successfully summoned, but the ritual was interrupted by me once, I think the god they summoned may be in an incomplete state, and this thing in an incomplete state also easily killed a saint-level, and also destroyed a city, if it is in a complete state, I think it is very dangerous. ”
"Yes, we can't let the other party's plan succeed, although I don't know what it is, but it's really very dangerous." Pope Soledon nodded, "What do we do now?" Does Serina-sama have any plans? “
