Chapter 194: The bond between the screenwriter and the actor
To hesitate is to want, to want is to get!
Ivas didn't intend to let Chancellor Drost live too long, so he immediately got into action.
Although Chancellor Drost offended Meg...... But after all, he only turned himself in, and he was not directly hanged.
Although the Arbitration Chamber also has a plan specifically for the punishment of knights and ministers when they commit crimes, from deprivation of official positions to deprivation of titles, to refutation of honors and public trials, there is a complete process. You can't say that you are guilty in the morning, and you will not be interrogated or judged, and you will be pulled out and cut directly at noon.
The foundation of authoritarianism is the law.
The law of "rules" is a more solid foundation than the power of man.
Otherwise, every time there is a change in the personnel of the power, it may cause the strength of the transcendent people in the country to fluctuate up and down.
But on the flip side, having a complete process means that the process can be long. This time will be used by the Inspectorate to investigate other ministers and secretaries of the Ministry of Trade to find out who is associated with Minister Drost, and then to find out who is behind it.
And in this process, it is better for Drost to be alive, because then he can report the other party and provide valuable witnesses.
However, it also gave the ministers who were close friends with him time to destroy the evidence. The inspector wasn't clean either, and there must have been eyes in it too.
Ivas feared that the more information Chancellor Drost sold, the more valuable he became. Perhaps there will be a few "big-lettered" Excellencies who will protect him for the sake of the "greater good". It's even possible that he's genuinely helping Avalon – in fact, it's not impossible.
Because he is not really loyal to Star Antimony and wants to surrender from the bottom of his heart, Drost is just plain selfish. In other words, if Avalon can give him more benefits, then he will go back to Avalon.
Although he was not a businessman, the trade minister was more like a businessman than a businessman.
- But in that case, what about Lily's feud? Convince Lily to focus on the big picture and let go of hatred?
Ivus scoffed.
No kidding.
It's disgusting to listen to.
Ivas consulted with Lily and found that they only had two options.
Either "Miss Alesser" is dispatched, so the trick is repeated to kill the other party. As a prisoner, most of Drost's extraordinary powers have been sealed, and it is possible to kill the opponent in a quick battle.
But the biggest problem here is that Ivas doesn't know if the Inspectorate will strengthen its guards. After all, Drost and Lloyd's are different - they can "lock" Lloyd's life, and it is more convenient to use it without letting him die, and when he disappears.
But old Drost can't, he has a family.
Lloyd's brothers and sisters were killed by himself, leaving no offspring. So Lloyd's can disappear, and no one will ask about it, it's his own sin.
But Drost is a family of founders. Not only is it a high status, but it also has many members. And Drost did a good job of superficial kung fu, he had many friends, and his family respected and loved him.
- Either you will be dragged out for trial and hanged, so that the family can draw a line with him; Either they are banished or placed under house arrest. But you hide people without judgment, without letting them be seen, and you say if you are still alive...... So what does that mean? Are we going to change the owner, or are we not going to change?
Not to mention that the Drost family is dissatisfied, other knight families may also be upset.
However, if someone infiltrated and killed Drost, that would not work.
First of all, it will reduce the power of the authoritarian authority and the credibility of the Inspectorate. At the same time, it will also make people wonder if Lloyd's, who suddenly disappeared, is also dead. This would reduce the credibility of the information received from Lloyd's.
So secretly assassinating Drost is simple. But the aftermath is troublesome.
Thankfully, they have a second option.
That is to force Minister Drost to make mistakes.
As long as he provides enough excuses, or says the wrong thing, it makes sense to skip the process and go straight to trial.
It's not that hard, or it's simpler.
That is, let Ivus play the role of a member of the Noble Red Society, and directly attack the Inspectorate to rescue him.
Droste wasn't sure if he would survive, and as a spy for the Star Antimony, someone could take him over. So as long as Ivas gets in, Droste will run out with him.
At that point, it will be possible to kill him outright - in order to prevent a traitor in a high position from taking away a lot of classified information, killing him directly is a very reasonable excuse.
Happened.
Today, His Royal Highness the Prince hiccuped, and the strong gathered in the Hall of Silver and Tin. It's a good time to want to make trouble.
Let Ivus and Lily go into the Chamber of Secrets, and then let Shadowfiend take Lily out of the ventilation duct. Fight back from the main gate and try to get him away - and Ivus blows him up with the power of the Flame Butterfly.
Everyone knew that Ivus and Lily were in the Chamber of Secrets. Then it was certainly not them who rushed in from the outside. With this alibi, it's good to do after that.
This was the initial plan that Ivas and Lily had drawn up after discussing it.
After saying goodbye to Isabel, they went to find the Great Guardian who had just finished a meeting.
Ivas generously asked where Drost was held, and the excuse was-
“…… Do you want to see him? ”
The Great Guardian frowned, "What is there for him to see?" ”
His Excellency George obviously did not want Ivas to meet with the Secretary of State for Trade.
Although the Great Guardian is the one most likely to keep the Trade Secretary, he is also the most emotionally disgusted with the Trade Secretary.
"Quite simply," replied Ewass, "because Lily's last name was Drost." ”
"He's your ......?"
"Biological father."
Lily wrenched her hands together and her expression darkened: "He's dying, I want to see him one last time." ”
As a transcendent who adapts to the path, Lily is gifted with disguise and lies.
However, her demeanor is a lie, but her words are not lies.
This is the way Evaster taught her to deceive the Great Guardian.
The Great Guardian can easily see through the lies of others...... But in fact, according to Ivus's experience, this is not a good thing.
Because thinking about how much sincerity there is in other people's words is actually a necessary process. There is information in words, and behind words there is a heart that even the speaker himself may not be aware of, why he says such a thing, why he says this sentence first and not anything else—and relying too much on the ability to see through lies will give up thinking and pondering in this area.
After all, the truth can also deceive.
The Great Guardian could sense the honesty of Lily's words.
As a father, he also empathizes.
Of course, this empathy was also designed by Ivus.
For His Excellency the Great Guardian, this is the best place to start.
The Great Guardian loved his children, and David revered him. And he doesn't have an illegitimate child, so he can't put himself in the shoes of the other knights who have been approached by the bastard, but will subconsciously overlap Lily with David.
He would not refuse such a reasonable request.
- After all, the people of the Droost family can ask to see the Minister of Trade. Although Lily is illegitimate child...... But what happened to bastards? She bleeds Drost's blood, and because she is an illegitimate child, she can't be considered a Drost's person?
It's just that she's the first to see her, it's not a big deal.
That's what George thought.
But as the Great Guardian and as the elder of Ivas and Lily, he had to be reminded, "You can go and see him, but don't take any of his word for it."
"That guy is full of lies. He can lie about anything, as long as it benefits him. If he knew that Miss Lily was his own daughter, he would most likely pretend to be pitiful and disguise himself as a victim or an innocent.
"But don't forget, Miss Lily. It was he who abandoned you and your mother—and I want you to understand that you are where you are today not because of the slightest benefit from Droos, but because of the Moriarty family. ”
The Great Guardian said in a deep voice, "Including the professor, and even more so Aihuas. He's been nice to you, don't let him down. ”
This man seemed to be the most traditional knight, and his posture was as tall as a pine.
He spoke his heart unceremoniously and without hesitation. The voice is thick and steady, giving people a strong sense of security, and can clearly perceive his kindness and rationality from it.
That's a convincing enough language that doesn't require any processing.
This chic and calm posture made Aihuas somewhat envious. And his generous kindness, and the care and education of his elders, also made Ivus feel respected.
- Don't worry, good uncle.
With me, you wouldn't have died so miserably and desperately......
Ivus thought to himself.
"I know."
Lily whispered, she looked at Ivus, her gray pupils were full of respect and gratitude, "I am very grateful to Master Ivus...... He changed my fate. He has a pure heart of justice, extremely high moral standards, and unreserved, selfless and sincere love for others. ”
…… Hey, hey, don't make a fuss. I didn't have that in the script I wrote for you.
Ivus was a little nervous, wondering if this would be seen as a lie by the Great Guardian.
Because he actually has a little weak-hearted - he doesn't feel how righteous he is, and he doesn't feel how high his moral standards are. According to Evas, it was Avalon who was too depraved. What he does is what an ordinary person should do.
What kind of good person can be a liar who opens his mouth to lie, lies with the truth, and even skillfully embellishes another lie with one lie?
Unexpectedly, the Great Guardian nodded approvingly: "That's true."
"Eivas is the most pious, righteous, loving, wise, and willful young man I have ever met. So Her Majesty ......"
As he said this, he paused suddenly.
Then he said, "Oh, Your Majesty also praises him a lot. We need to let our children learn more from him. ”
Ivas couldn't hold back when he heard half of it.
Although he also knows that his character is actually quite good. But about half of them are pretended.
It was because he knew what kind of character he was, so he always felt that the Great Guardian was angry with him...... Although he knew that the Great Guardian must be praising him sincerely, it was because of this that he felt even more uncomfortable.
- Can you wait until I've done something great before you praise me?
What about Lily, what about Lily? Change the topic and save it?
Fortunately, the Great Guardian didn't hold Ivus and praise wildly.
He reached out and touched the Eye of Avalon on his chest, and said, "I'll see if he's awake." He's still locked in the chamber. There was no light or sound in the secret room, and the first thing many people did after being locked up was to sleep.
"They probably can't sleep at first, but when they do, they can spend a lot of time. Therefore, the real punishment begins only after waking up, when you can't sleep......"
Halfway through his speech, he suddenly paused. His expression suddenly became serious.
"Thank you, Evas."
The Great Guardian said suddenly, then took out his griffin flute and blew it, before saying, "Thank you very much......"
“……?”
Ivus tilted his head in confusion.
And the words of the Great Guardian made him and Lily stunned for a moment: "The people of the Noble Red Society are here, and there are many of them...... They're attacking the Inspectorate, presumably to get him out - they're running out. I've just seen some of the Inspectors die.
"If you don't tell me about it, they should all die here. The Inspectorate of the Capital was massacred and prisoners were taken away...... It's going to be a big deal. ”
How could there be such a thing?
Drost doesn't want to live anymore? Was he so sure he could run away?
How did he get in touch with the noble red? How did they know he was here?
Many doubts rose in Aihuas's mind—but he knew that the most important thing was that his chance had come.
"I'll go too, please take me there."
Eivas immediately replied, "I've gotten the ability to dispel curses and heal groups from the Flame Butterfly, and I'm sure I'll be able to help." ”
It's the truth.
The Great Guardian nodded unintentionally. He took Ehuas and walked quickly to the window on the second floor.
His griffin had stopped in front of the window. The Great Guardian lifted Ivus's wheelchair with one hand and threw him out of the second-floor balcony with the wheelchair attached.
The griffon grabbed Ivus's wheelchair with ease.
And Ivus added, "It's better to bring Lily!" ”
The Grand Guardian nodded, grabbed Lily by the collar, whispered "rudeness", and jumped onto the griffon's back with her.
Once the people were gathered, the atmosphere around the griffin began to fluctuate. The figures of the three began to blur a little, like human figures seen through the smoke above the barbecue.
The wind is not a resistance for the griffins, but their companions—
The griffon's claws plucked the silent strings, and the atmosphere slowly opened to the sides like an automatic door. If ordinary people break through the speed of sound, it is like smashing the transparent doors with their bodies, then the griffin will automatically move out of the way to both sides when the griffin walks over.
They didn't set off a sonic boom, but disappeared in an instant with a hurricane.
The big chapter of 4,000 words can be two in one, but it's only the first chapter! (Fork waist)
There's a second chapter after that!
