Chapter 397: Troublemaker Thinking

"The murder that happened last night on Baker Street in the White Queen District has been investigated.

Sitting in the Queen's study in the Silver and Tin Palace, Aiwass looked at the newspaper delivered this morning and casually read out 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 called the Silver and Tin Palace urgently last night to express his deep condolences. The Arbitration Hall has increased patrols to arrest the murderer as soon as possible."

He chuckled: "The speed is quite fast. But he didn't say anything."

"Indeed."

As the wolf in question, Lily nodded in agreement.

She relied on switching back and forth between the three forms of human, wolf, and werewolf, and the ability to sneak in the shadows. It took her a whole night to finally get rid of the griffins. Now she has just returned.

After the incident last night, Aiwass took the reporter Dimit to the next door.

At that time, the vicinity of Minister Griffith's mansion was covered by griffins - more than twenty white-feathered griffins were flying in the air. As they flew, dark clouds rolled up in the night sky, and thunder rolled in the clouds. It roared like a lion's roar.

The minister's murder was no small matter, and the entire White Queen District was under martial law. Those arbitrators who were rarely seen at ordinary times and all of them were fourth-level members had arrived at the scene as soon as possible.

Aiwass showed his identity, and accompanied by the members of the Arbitration Hall, he took Dimit and his assistant to take first-hand photos very smoothly.

Of course, this accompaniment was essentially surveillance.

In order to prevent Aiwas from eliminating certain evidence - but Aiwass really didn't need to eliminate evidence.

Therefore, he even invited several arbitrators to accompany him, and even took the initiative to help them find clues.

This was Aiwas's purpose.

What surprised Aiwas was that Lily did not leave traces of the shadow demon in the villa as they had agreed before.

So Aiwass immediately realized that there must be some special situation that prevented Lily from leaving traces as originally planned.

The Shadow Demon did not return to him for help immediately, which meant that Lily was not in danger. But Lily turned into a werewolf... This was enough to show that this change was not due to security needs, but for intelligence purposes.

Without communicating with Lily, Aiwass 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 stringent procedures and retain evidence.

They naturally found the eagle feather dagger.

——This is the assassination proof that the Hawkeye Organization will leave at the scene after assassinating others as "the Hawkeye Organization is responsible for this." After all, in essence, the Hawkeye Organization is a comprehensive agent organization with political tendencies, not a mercenary group that performs assassinations simply for profit.

After testing, they also found traces of curse poison from the bitten and tattered corpse.

Obviously, this matter has nothing to do with Aiwass.

After the Arbitration Chamber reported the clues, the Privy Council held an emergency meeting that night and began to discuss it.

The "Werewolf Assassin" that appeared last night is undoubtedly a very dangerous criminal. It even assassinated a minister in the White Queen District, and this matter must be explained as soon as possible. Therefore, the newspaper the next morning must also express its position on this matter.

So in the morning, Aiwass received the newspaper and the report from the Silver and Tin Palace at the same time.

Aiwass flicked the report from the Privy Council Minister and praised: "This is still clearly written."

According to the rules, the Privy Council Minister must submit the minutes of the meeting to the Queen's study.

Then the only one who can see this report is Aiwass, who can walk freely in the Silver and Tin Palace.

This is not an overstep. Because Isabel has left the Glass Island this morning and toured Avalon according to tradition. Before leaving, she wrote a document and authorized Aiwass to handle the matter. She also wrote a few blank lists, signed her name below, and left blanks on the specific "authorized matters".

Aiwass can fill in the blanks at any time as needed.

What kind of trust is this?

...This trust is like being undermined by Aiwass.

It is an obvious fact that the werewolf appeared in the street and was discovered by the civilians.

Ordinary people don't know the political details of Iris, but the knights certainly know.

As an assassin organization that hates the Son of the Moon, the "Eagle Eye" organization has a clear position of opposing the Son of the Moon and the "Healthy Party" dominated by the Path of Love in Iris, also known as the Stability Party. Their party logo is a red heart, hoping to maintain the status quo.

There are many people who yearn for eternal life. As a second choice, the witch's potion with many uses and the witch whose appearance will be greatly enhanced as the level is promoted are also a precious and rare resource.

In Iris, where witches are basically controlled by the Sons 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 old nobles and big businessmen.

The other party, the "Giant Tree Party" which advocates the path of beauty, has a green tree as its logo.

"Giant Tree" refers to the giant tree where the elves of the Church live. Because of the constant pressure from the Star Antimony, Iris is preparing for war all year round. The military expenditure is very high, and the tax rate is increasing year by year. Regardless of gender, they will be forced to enlist after adulthood unless they pay a high "conscription tax". Therefore, the anti-war tendency among the people of Iris is very high.

The Giant Tree Faction refers to the hope 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 wars between countries. They are mainly composed of urban petty bourgeoisie, intellectuals and a large number of artists.

These artists have become academic tycoons and basically control the promotion method of the Path of Beauty. And there is no doubt that the Path of Beauty is more stable and easier to gain public support than the Path of Love, which is easy to get out of control and crazy. This is also one of the very few paths that can master a certain level of extraordinary abilities only through hard systematic learning.

Just like when the alchemists at a higher level teach their students, as long as the students study hard and have a college student's brain, they can at least reach the second energy level at the age of thirty; the same is true for the "artistic style" that great artists teach their students to create...even with a little talent, they can reach the third energy level.

And with the increasing pressure on the survival of Iris, a large number of talented young artists have been suppressed in disguise.

It is precisely because of these young artists from the grassroots who are overwhelming in number that the seemingly passive and naive "Giant Tree Party" can become a strong party comparable to the Stability Party. This is also the ruling party where the current prime minister is.

Not many people know that the "Eagle Eye" organization actually belongs to the "Giant Tree Party".

The Eagle Eye Organization is the successor of the exiled mercenaries of the Black Hawk Principality on the surface.

Because they not only kill the Son of the Moon, but also some great artists. In other words, they actually kill both sides. It's just that they are relatively more opposed to the Son of the Moon-because the Black Hawk and Narcissus are originally enemy countries, which is reasonable. In addition, they also take some hired killing jobs.

Many people, including the Privy Council, believe that the Hawkeye organization actually belongs to the third largest party in Iris, the "Imperial Glory Party". They are a very radical organization that claims that the Iris Kingdom is the orthodox successor of the Herasil Empire. They incite xenophobia and emphasize extreme nationalism.

The violent behavior of the Hawkeye organization is undoubtedly very close to the claims of the Imperial Party.

Not long ago, the Prime Minister from the Giant Tree Party admitted the assassination of the Avalon royal family and promised to pay huge compensation. And there is no doubt that these compensations will eventually be passed on to the entire people.

Therefore, this has caused a lot of dissatisfaction with the Giant Tree Party within Iris.

But the Prime Minister did not admit that the assassination of the minister's secretary by the Hawkeye organization's assassin was related to him. He believed that this was a long-arm action of the Star Antimony Kingdom to silence the Star Antimony spies in Avalon - in other words, he claimed that the Hawkeye organization was related to the Star Antimony people.

From the perspective of the people of Iris, it was basically assumed that "Hawkeye" belonged to the Imperial Party. And the Imperial Party was also happy to accept this view to increase the public's recognition of their powerful power.

As a result, now they have hurriedly stated that the Hawkeye Organization has nothing to do with them. But the shit pot has been overturned, and it is difficult to get out of it.

In this incident, whether it is the werewolf or the witch behind the werewolf, it is likely that they are members of the Healthy Party.

Therefore, there are two ways to interpret this incident.

The Privy Council Minister wrote it very clearly.

One is that the werewolves of the Healthy Party are pretending to be assassins of "Hawkeye" and framing the Hawkeye Organization, that is, the Imperial Party. Clear the political enemies in advance after confirming that the Giant Tree Party cannot 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 Healthy Party.

Avalon has no need to explore the truth. They can just go with the flow.

In the former case, Avalon needs to condemn the "Hawkeye Organization" and emphasize that this incident was done by assassins; and in the latter case, Avalon needs to emphasize that it was done by werewolves.

According to the investigation of the Supervisory Bureau, they confirmed the Hawkeye Organization's unique "curse poison" from the incomplete body of Minister Griffith, and its composition was consistent with the residue in the body of John Raff, the former chief private secretary of Minister Droste.

The focus of these two speculations is actually "whether the traces of curse poison remaining in the body were left intentionally". As for the Eagle Feather Dagger, it doesn't matter. The assassins of the Hawkeye Organization will leave this thing at any assassination scene, so it's not surprising that someone collects it.

"The Privy Council's view is to recommend the second option. The report said, 'In the basement where the body was, traces of the bloody demon summoning ritual were found.' Because the two trade ministers were assassinated in succession because they were both related to the Star Antimony.

"If the first option is chosen, then it will actually be of no pain to the Imperial Party. For their supporters, both the Avalonians and the Star Antimony are enemies, but the Star Antimony is more hateful; then a Star Antimony spy in Avalon can be killed.

"But if we adopt the second option, as long as we add a sentence like 'we have locked these two people as Star Antimony spies', it is equivalent to characterizing this action as silencing. It is accusing the 'Iris Health Party and Star Antimony people of collusion', implying that this assassination is actually a long-arm operation from the Star Antimony's 'Secret Room' department..."

Evans's mouth curled up slightly, and his fingers tapped the document lightly: "This will cause chaos within Iris and make the party election that was originally set in stone uncertain. Excellent troublemaker thinking... is indeed a good plan."

I'm afraid the Iris people will be a little confused now.

When the spies on the Iris side get this information, they will probably think that Miss Chloe is still alive, but has turned into a werewolf.

...I'm sorry, Miss Chloe.

I have to trouble you to live again.
