Chapter 395:-stirring stick thinking
"Last night's murder on Baker Street in White Queen has been clarified."
Sitting in the Queen's study in the Palace of Silver and Tin, Ivas looked at the newspaper delivered this morning, and casually read the headline on the front page: "The dangerous werewolf who assassinated the new Minister of Trade, Mr. Griffith, is a wanted criminal from the Iris Kingdom."
"Prime Minister Iris made an urgent telegram last night to the Temple of Silver and Tin to express his deep condolences over the matter. The Arbitration Hall has stepped up patrols to apprehend the murderers as soon as possible. β
He chuckled, "It's pretty fast." I just didn't say anything. β
"Indeed."
Lily, as the wolf in question, nodded approvingly.
She relied on switching back and forth between human, wolf, and werewolf forms, and the ability to sneak through the shadows, and it took a whole night to finally shake off the griffins. I've only recently returned.
After the accident last night, Ivas rushed to the next door with reporter Dimmit.
The vicinity of Chancellor Griffith's mansion was covered by griffons - more than twenty white-feathered griffons were flying in the air, and as they flew, dark clouds had formed in the night sky, and thunder was rolling in the clouds. It roared like a lion's roar.
The murder of the minister was no small matter, and the entire White Queen was placed under martial law. The arbitrators, who don't usually see each other a few times, and all the members are of the fourth level, have already arrived at the scene as soon as possible.
Evas revealed his identity and, accompanied by members of the arbitration hall, took a photograph of Dimmit and his assistant very smoothly.
Of course, this escort is also essentially surveillance.
In order to prevent Ivas from expunging some of the evidence β but Ivas really doesn't need to expunge.
Therefore, he even invited a number of arbitrators to accompany him, and even took the initiative to help them find clues.
That's what Ivas is all about.
To Ivus's surprise, Lily didn't follow their previous plan and leave traces of the Shadow Fiend in the villa.
It immediately occurred to Eivas that there must be some special circumstance that prevented Lily from leaving traces as originally planned.
The fact that Shadow Fiend did not immediately return to him for help meant that Lily was not in danger. But Lily turned into a werewolf...... Suffice it to say that this change is not due to security needs, but to intelligence purposes.
Without communicating with Lily, Ivus knew what information Lily wanted to convey to him.
So he led the arbitrators of the arbitration hall to search the entire scene according to the most rigorous process and kept the evidence.
Naturally, they found the Eagle Feather Dagger.
- This is the assassination proof that the Hawkeye organization will stay on the scene after assassinating someone as "the Hawkeye organization is responsible for this". After all, at its core, the Hawkeye is a comprehensive group of agents with political leanings, not a group of mercenaries who carry out assassinations purely for profit.
After testing, they also found traces of the poison in the tattered corpses that had been bitten.
Obviously, this matter has nothing to do with Ivus.
After the Arbitration Chamber reported the lead, the Privy Council met urgently that night and began to discuss it.
The "werewolf assassins" who appeared last night are undoubtedly very dangerous criminals. It even assassinated a minister in the White Queen's district, which must be explained as soon as possible. Therefore, the newspaper of the next morning had to take a position on the matter.
So in the morning, Ivas received both the newspaper and the report of the Temple of Silver and Tin.
Ivas flicked the report from the Privy Council and praised: "It's still clearly written. β
By custom, Privy Councillors are required to hand over the minutes of meetings to the Queen's Study.
Then the only one who can see this report is the only one who can walk freely in the Temple of Silver and Tin.
That's not a transgression. Because Isabel had left the Isle of Glass this morning and was cruising around Avalon according to tradition. Before leaving, she wrote down the paperwork and authorized Ivus to take care of the matter. She also wrote a few blank slips, signed her name underneath, and left blank on the specific "authorized matters."
Ivas can fill in the blanks on it as often as he wants.
What kind of trust is this?
β¦β¦ It's like Iwass has hollowed out the trust.
It is an obvious fact that werewolves appear in the streets and are spotted by civilians.
Ordinary people don't know the political details of those irises, but the knights certainly do.
The "Hawkeye" Order, an assassin group that hates the Children of the Moon, is clearly opposed to the Children of the Moon and the "Healthy Party", also known as the Stability Party, which is dominated by the path of love within Iris. Their partisan identity is a red heart that wants to maintain the status quo.
There are many people who yearn for eternal life. On the other hand, the witch's versatile potions, as well as the witch's appearance, which greatly strengthens her appearance with increasing energy levels, are also valuable and rare resources in their own right.
In Iris, where witches are mostly controlled by the Children of the Moon, potions are basically a quota rationing system. Because of this, the "Healthy Party" controlled by the Son of the Moon is actually a party dominated by the old aristocracy and big businessmen.
On the other hand, the "Giant Tree Party", which is dominated by the path of beauty, has a green tree.
The "Giant Tree" refers to the Giant Tree inhabited by the spirits of the Church. Because of the constant pressure from the star antimony, the iris is prepared for war all year round, and the military expenditure is very high, and because of this, the tax rate also increases every year, and both men and women will be forced to conscript when they reach adulthood, unless they pay a high "conscription tax". Therefore, the anti-war tendencies of the iris folk are very high.
The Giant Tree faction refers to the desire to become a permanent neutral country like the elves, open ports and trade to all races and countries, focus on economic development, and be independent of the wars of various countries. They consisted mainly of the city's petty bourgeoisie, intellectuals, and a large number of artists.
These artists became scholars, and basically controlled the promotion of the path of beauty. And there is no doubt that the path of beauty is more stable and easier to gain the support of the people than the path of love, which is easy to get out of control and madness. This is also one of the very few paths that can master a certain level of extraordinary ability only through diligent systematic study.
Just like when a high-ranking alchemist teaches a student, as long as the student studies hard and has a college student-level brain, he can at least reach the second level at the age of thirty; The same is true of the "art style" that the great artists teach their students to create...... Even a little talent can reach the third energy level.
And in the case of the increasing survival pressure of irises, a large number of talented young artists have also been suppressed in disguise.
It is precisely these young artists from the bottom who are overwhelmingly numerous, and the seemingly passive and naΓ―ve "Giant Tree Party" can become a powerful party on a par with the Stability Party. This is also the ruling party in which the current prime minister belongs.
Not many people know that the "Hawkeye" organization actually belongs to the "Giant Tree Party".
On the bright side, the Hawkeye Organization is the successor of those exiled mercenaries belonging to the Black Hawk Principality.
Because they not only kill the children of the moon, but also some great artists. In other words, they actually kill on both sides. It's just that it's more against the Moonchild - because Black Hawk and Narcissus are enemy nations, which makes sense. In addition to this, they also take on some hired killings.
And many, including the Privy Council, believe that the Hawkeye organization actually belongs to Iris's third-largest party, the "Imperial Glory Party." They are a rather radical organization that declares the Iris Kingdom to be the rightful successor to the Hellasr Empire. Inciting xenophobia and emphasizing ultra-nationalism.
The violence of the Hawkeye is undoubtedly close to the claims of the Imperial Party.
Not long ago, the prime minister, who came from the Giant Tree Party, confessed to the assassination of the Avalon royal family and promised a huge compensation. There is no doubt that these reparations will eventually be passed on to the entire population.
As a result, there was a lot of dissatisfaction with the Giant Tree Party within Iris.
But the Prime Minister did not admit that the assassination of the Secretary of the Minister by the Assassins of the Hawkeye Organization was related to him. It is believed that this is an extermination of the Star Antimony spies within Avalon, and a long-arm operation by the Star Antimony Kingdom - in other words, he claims that the Eagle Eye is related to the Star Antimony People.
As for the Iris folk point of view, it was basically tacitly assumed that "Hawkeye" belonged to the Imperial Party. The Imperials are happy to acquiesce to this view in order to increase public recognition of their power.
Now, they have quickly stated that the Hawkeye organization has nothing to do with them. But the basin has been overturned, and it will be difficult to get out.
In this incident, whether it is the werewolf or the witch behind the werewolf, it is likely that they are all members of the Health Party.
Therefore, there are two directions of interpretation of this event.
The Privy Council Ministers wrote it very clearly.
One is that the werewolves of the Healthy Party are posing as assassins of "Hawkeye" and framing the Hawkeye organization, that is, the Imperial Party. Eliminate political opponents ahead of schedule when it is confirmed that the Giant Tree Party will not win the next election.
The second is that some of the assassins of the Hawkeye organization have become "wild werewolves" who are not controlled by the Health Party.
There was no need for Avalon to seek the truth. They can do it.
Then the former Avalon needs to denounce the "Hawkeye Organization", emphasizing that this incident was committed by the Assassins; In the latter case, Avalon needs to emphasize that it was the werewolf who did it.
According to the Inspectorate's investigation, they confirmed from the mutilated body of Chancellor Griffith's unique "curse poison" that was consistent with the residue of John Ruff, the former chief private secretary of the Minister of Droth.
The point of these two speculations is actually "whether the traces of the curse poison left in the body are intentionally left". As for the Eagle Feather Dagger, it doesn't matter. This Hawkeye assassin would stay at any assassination site, and it's not surprising that someone would collect it.
"The view of the Privy Council is that it is advisable to choose the second option. The report stated, 'Traces of the bloody demon-summoning ritual were found in the basement where the corpse was located'. Because the two trade ministers were assassinated one after another, because they were both related to the Star Antimony people.
"If the first option is chosen, then it doesn't actually hurt the Imperial Party. To their supporters, both the Avalons and the Star Antimony are enemies, only the Star Antimony are more hateful; Then a Star Antimony spy in Avalon, kill and kill.
"But with the second option, as long as we add 'we've identified these two as Star Antimony Spies,' we're characterizing this behavior as a. It is accusing the 'Iris Health Party of colluding with the Star Antimony People', suggesting that this assassination was actually a long-arm operation from the Star Antimony 'Secret Room' department......"
The corners of Aihuas's mouth rose slightly, and his fingers tapped lightly on the document: "This will make the interior of Iris chaotic and make the originally certain party election uncertain." Excellent-stirring stick thinking...... It's really calculating. β
I'm afraid that the iris people will be a little confused now.
When the Scout on Iris's side gets this information, I'm afraid they will think that Miss Chloe is still alive, but just a werewolf.
β¦β¦ I've wronged you, Miss Chloe.
I'm going to have to trouble you to live again.
