Although there are other places where Ivus can take refuge for a while, they are not as good as Bishop Mathers' house.

It's safe enough that no one will come and investigate; The living environment was clean and comfortable, and Lady Mina was able to take care of the food—even by Ivus's discerning standards, her craftsmanship was quite good.

Lady Mina, after all, is from an iris background. It's still very reasonable to cook better than most Avalons.

Crucially, there are plenty of newspapers within easy reach. At Sherlock's request, Lady Mina now buys a large number of newspapers every day, as well as a large number of tabloids in addition to the Glass Steps.

According to Sherlock, despite the fact that the tabloids are mixed with a lot of exaggeration and lies, they still have a reference value. There will be a lot of things that the "Glass Steps" will not cover, and there may be important information hidden in a small sentence.

So with Lady Mina's stay, Ivas and Lily stayed here.

The only problem is that there are not enough rooms here. Ivas and Lily slept in one room.

However, Lily is Ivus's personal maid after all, and the relationship between the two is close enough. Not to mention sleeping in the same room, even if you sleep in the same bed, there is no problem.

After confirming that Ivas was safe, Haina returned to the dormitory with peace of mind.

She couldn't help but rejoice...... Fortunately, he didn't rush to the head of the school to save Evas, but came to Sherlock first to ask for advice.

Otherwise, if the front foot has just finished begging, the back foot will find that Ivas is playing chess with Sherlock safely...... Then she felt like she was going to be beaten.

After sending Hayna away, Ivas and Sherlock played chess again, and Sherlock went back to work.

He's been experimenting lately, and he's also immersed himself in writing a book—taking advantage of the rare leisure, Sherlock plans to take pictures of all the ash of more than 140 cigars, paper cigarettes, and pipe shreds available in Avalon and neighboring countries with a color camera, record them in a notebook, and summarize and distinguish the details of the cigarette ash.

"Don't underestimate the ashes. Sometimes, these inconspicuous things may even be the most important, or even the only clues, in the whole case. ”

Sherlock explains: "Sometimes the prisoner has a lot of experience and takes special care to destroy the evidence after the killing. But they tend to overlook details such as soot that shakes off the ground.

"And if you can confirm that a person who smoked iris 'Jasmine' brand cigarettes was present at the scene not long ago, even if the other party did not leave any other evidence, but you already have an idea of investigation; And if you've locked up several suspects, then this may even be the only evidence.

"The Inspectorate is more responsible for criminal cases between ordinary people – and there are much more malignant incidents between ordinary people than in cases involving extraordinary powers. I think this book can effectively help them investigate the incident, which shortens the work cycle and improves their work ability. ”

"Although you are not an inspector, I don't think Director Kent cares about the inspectorate as much as you."

Ivas Rui commented.

It can only be said that Sherlock is really idle and has nothing to do.

As it happens, Iwass is also idle—he's also waiting for things to unfold. So he simply accompanied Sherlock to write his dissertation.

Sherlock was pleased, and offered to include Ivus's name along with it.

And Aihuas refused without hesitation: "I'll help you temporarily, maybe in a few days, I'll be busy." ”

"But you helped me for at least a day."

Sherlock chuckled.

But they didn't expect that Ivas really only helped for one day.

Because wait until the next day, which is Thursday morning. Ivas saw the unexpected news in the newspaper.

"Justice Bran Boca surrendered?"

…… Yes?

Seeing the front page headline of the "Glass Steps", Ivers was stunned for a moment.

He looked back again.

Tommy Lloyd's, the current president of Lloyd's, was arrested for 21 felonies, including violent homicide, murder, coercing others to commit crimes, smuggling dangerous goods, and desecrating corpses.

“…… Yes? ”

Ivus was stunned again.

What's the situation?

So Ivus carefully read the text again.

Despite the vagueness of the news, Ivas could tell from the few words that Vice President Boca had turned himself in and then fished — and then Tommy took the bait.

He came to assassinate Boca, only to be caught by the guards who were crouching.

And Tommy, as a high-ranking transcendent, personally brings demons to attack others...... Those who can stop him may even be the ones with "big" in the title. After all, the temptation to turn himself in was still great - as the vice president of Lloyd's and a member of the noble Red Society, he was able to report a large number of people.

According to what Ivus knew about them, it was either the Great Guardian St. George or the Grand Arbiter Meg who was in charge of this matter. They are undoubtedly the most powerful ministers in Avalon, and they are all loyal royalty.

At this time, Tommy Lloyd was caught red-handed by them...... No matter how the people outside him operated, it was basically difficult to get out.

After all, the person in charge of the "Glass Steps" is Master Yanis, and her opinion can basically represent the queen's opinion.

And since the newspaper can directly mention Tommy's twenty-one felonies without concealing anything, it will not give him the possibility of overturning the case. Now this newspaper is trying to put pressure on Lloyd's to tell them that we are determined to convict Tommy and stop doing meaningless operations.

- Good guy, am I so efficient in a round of fakes?

Sherlock, look!

Although, according to Aihuas's expectations, things are indeed going in this direction...... But he ran away early Wednesday morning, and both of them had already been caught on Thursday morning. This still made Ivus a little nervous.

Can you stop sending it so quickly?

Ivas wanted to wait for them to pull it.

Only when the situation is completely muddyed can he go to assassinate Minister Drost.

As a result, the two of them are burping as fast as the wind - the middle leaders of Lloyd's may not be aware of it at all, and the two leaders above their heads are gone. All of a sudden, Avalon became secure again.

“…… Wait a minute? ”

Ivas suddenly realized the problem.

This time, the two of them didn't pull their hair at all, and they were both directly imprisoned...... Is there a possibility, then, that they will confess to Ivus?

Maybe Boca won't do that, after all, he bet on Eivas. But Tommy probably does.

It's revenge on Boca, but it's also an attempt to prove his innocence — to prove that Aleister is not their man.

Even if Tommy doesn't, he'll probably end up having his memory drained. At that point, Ivus will still not be able to hide.

Washton's brow furrowed slightly.

Mainly these days, the name of the demon scholar is really not good. It is because of these people of the noble red that their initiation ceremony is evil enough...... In addition to the occult significance, it is also to make the new members directly bear their lives and cannot turn back.

- As long as it is a noble red demon scholar, there is no innocent person who kills them all.

And this leads to a problem...... That is, it is difficult for Ivus to prove his innocence.

As a demon scholar, he will always have his own contracted demons, right?

So what if he showed his shadow demon...... That would be tantamount to exposing all of your plans.

…… What to do?

Why don't you go to Isabel and ask for an amnesty?

“…… No. ”

Ivas quickly decided: "There is a way. ”

He couldn't help but rejoice—fortunately, he had left his hand behind.

He got up and changed his clothes and called Lily, "Ready to go out, Lily." ”

"Where are you going?"

Lily obediently followed, and asked with some surprise, "Do you want to go out in the morning?" ”

After all, both Lily and Ivas are the types whose combat power is much stronger at night than during the day.

"Because we don't have much time, as soon as possible."

Ivus narrowed his eyes, put on the ring that symbolized the noble Red Society, and said calmly, "Let's go and put it out." ”

The second chapter is estimated to be more than two points-

The schedule is being adjusted......

(End of chapter)
