Chapter 386 Detective Watson's Investigation

Evans did not leave the Silver and Tin Palace in the middle of the night, but stayed there directly.

Isabel had prepared a room for Aiwas a long time ago. And the things that Aiwas had burned when he was reading the "Morning Crow Secret Sutra" have been replaced.

After all, there must be many people coming to mourn outside the Griffin Bridge tonight. There must be some people from the Round Table Hall coming here to block him.

Aiwas did not want to meet people outside, so it was better not to cause trouble for himself.

The next day, the national morning newspaper published the news of Her Majesty's death.

There are more than 300 well-known newspapers in Avalon. Among them, there are regular ones and some are not so regular. But no matter their original reporting style, they must honestly report the news of Queen Sofia's death and Queen Isabel's succession to the throne today.

Among these basically similar reports, there are also some newspapers with the magic painting drawn by Janice.

Although in Avalon, the only newspaper that can carry the magic painting is the "Glass Steps Newspaper". But Master Janice's painting skills can be used as photos without any problems. Therefore, these magic paintings were also transferred into negatives by special people and distributed to major newspapers in Glass Island.

As for newspapers in remote areas, they will be delayed for two days. Or simply wait until the National Funeral Day a week later to publish them together.

At this moment, in a street near Garden City in the Metropolitan District, a young man wearing a yellow windbreaker and a brown beret is carefully looking at the newspapers covering the table in his "Watson Detective Agency" - some of them are old newspapers, and of course, the "Glass Steps" that he bought at a high price today.

Andre Watson bit his pen and looked at the newspapers spread out in front of him, lost in thought, with a blue light flowing in his pupils.

He is a detective.

Of course, he is definitely not as famous as Sherlock. But he is also excellent.

The Metropolitan District is the most prosperous place in Glass Island, and it is also the most populous place. It is not as dangerous as Lloyd's District, nor is it like the Red and White Queen District where almost every case may involve big people.

It is simply busy here - busy because there are so many people.

Because of this, Mr. Watson is often invited by the local supervisory bureau to help solve some difficult cases. As a wizard of wisdom, his brain is much more useful than those lawyers and supervisors.

After all, there is only one Sherlock. But the big cases on Glass Island cannot be solved by him alone.

But at the same time, Andre Watson has another identity... or two identities.

In fact, he is a spy from Star Antimony. Born in the First Special Operations Force of the Star Antimony Army.

And this unit has another nickname, called "Secret Room". It is mainly responsible for the collection and processing of intelligence.

The reason for this name is that it was originally an unnamed secret room before it was numbered and regularized. The early members of the "Twelve Keys" exchanged intelligence and conspired in it. And now it is the spy and counterintelligence department of Star Antimony.

But in addition to this, Andre has another identity.

He is the child born to a high-level wizard of the Narcissus Principality and the Son of the Moon.

Although the high-level mages of the Narcissus Principality have now sworn allegiance to the King of Star Antimony, there are certainly seeds of national restoration among them. And he is one of them.

From this perspective, Andre can be said to be a double agent - on the one hand, he serves the Star Antimony people and hides inside Avalon; on the other hand, he serves the Narcissus people and steals Star Antimony intelligence and sends it to the Mage Tower.

- The Star Antimony people may not be unaware of his ill intentions. In other words, it would be strange if those mages really pledged allegiance to Star Antimony without resistance. But in the face of the general trend, their attitude itself is not important. As long as Star Antimony can survive steadily, this kind of thinking will naturally lose its foundation after a few generations.

Perhaps it is for this reason that he was sent to Glass Island.

An enemy-behind-the-line area far away from Star Antimony and the Narcissus Principality, with a large number of legal mages with lie detection capabilities. As a member of the "Secret Room", he actually does not know any important intelligence that can be traced back to the headquarters - this is the unique confidentiality style of the "Secret Room". The secrets held by everyone are fragments, and the truth can only be revealed after being decrypted and pieced together.

It was already difficult for him to survive in Avalon.

It was impossible to hide the origin of Xingti, and people who appeared out of thin air were more likely to be exposed. As the relationship between Avalon and Xingti deteriorated year by year, the pressure he was under here became greater and greater.

It took him a long time and energy to gain the trust of the Inspectorate. In recent days, he began to feel suspicious eyes again. Even after the arrest of former Minister of Trade Drost, he was investigated by the Inspectorate.

At that time, he thought he was going to be discovered.

Fortunately, the spell his father cast on him was reliable enough.

He was able to sneak into the "Secret Room" at that time because of his parents' protection - he was also sure that he was not discovered, otherwise he would have been executed or locked up.

When he learned about the story of "Miss Crawley", Andre was quite emotional.

Of course, he didn't know the identity and mission of his colleagues. This was to prevent someone from betraying their companions.

But the information was too true.

Although he had been in Avalon for many years and could no longer remember whether there was such a third young lady in the Crawley family - but now that he thought about it carefully, the vague memory seemed to tell him "it seems that there was".

And he sympathizes with "Miss Crawley" and resonates with her.

——In a sense, he and Miss Crawley are in the same predicament.

He is now one of the most important spies of Star, and he must obtain important intelligence for Star, but at the same time, as a Narcissus, he is also thinking about how to betray Star; Miss Crawley is a pure-blooded Star, but because of the forbidden love, she also wants to betray Star.

As a member of the "Secret Room", he knows what kind of resistance and crisis Miss Crawley will encounter in the country. Although after she is captured, Star will definitely exchange her back through the trade of spies... But her parents and her family will be under very strong pressure because of this!

Even if she is the daughter of an earl, she must pay the price.

Her family will soon pay the price, and she must pay the price for the family.

It is precisely because of their similar positions that they resonate with each other. On the one hand, Andre is hostile to the hero of the story "Evans Moriarty", and on the other hand, he is curious about his charm.

So out of curiosity, he went to investigate.

——It turns out that Aiwass is a playboy!

He flirted with girls every day in middle school, and even made girls quarrel and fight over him;

His girlfriend changed every Monday, from his female teacher in her thirties to his classmate's elementary school sister, they all showed extraordinary enthusiasm with him in public;

Even the two girls who fought were finally coaxed by him, and the two turned enemies into friends, and went to dispel rumors together to try to eliminate the impact of rumors for him-

After graduating from middle school, his legs seemed to be broken by the brother of one of his girlfriends, and he was in a wheelchair. After that, from the student union president of the university, the female bishop who taught, and even the princess Isabel, they all had close relationships with him.

"... Such a philandering man is not a good match, Miss Crawley!"

Just when Andre was worried about the colleague he had never met, he received the news of the queen's death.

After reading the newspaper he usually subscribed to and seeing the photo of Aiwass and Queen Isabel in it, he immediately went to buy the "Glass Steps Newspaper" with the magic painting! Then all the newspapers and intelligence related to Aiwas were taken out for joint analysis.

Andre watched the magic painting hundreds of times and analyzed very critical intelligence from it-

When Aiwas put his hand on Isabel's shoulder, the young queen did not resist or oppose at all. When she turned around and looked up at Aiwas, there was obvious joy in her eyes.

And after Aiwas put his hand down, Queen Isabel even stepped aside half a step.

If it were an ordinary person, they might think that this was to keep a distance. But Andre observed Isabel's shoulders and arms and confirmed that her arms slightly moved back when Aiwas put his hand down.

What does that mean?

It means that she took the initiative to touch Aiwas's hand!

And after that, Aiwas put his hands behind his back-perhaps this means "avoidance"?

Isabel's half step aside made the fact that Aiwas was behind her less conspicuous.

It seemed that the two were standing shoulder to shoulder. It doesn't look like a photo of a king and his subjects, but more like a photo of a couple.

Combining his previous analysis of Isabel's desire to attack, Andre boldly came to a conclusion:

Isabel chose to let only Iwass accompany her to take photos when the rumors about Iwass and Aleister were spreading, just to snatch Iwass from Miss Crawley!
