Chapter 462 Spider's Foot

Evans got up from the sofa and called the princess by her name: "Isabelle..."

His face showed some anxiety, some surprise, and an expression as if he had figured out something: "Is there... something wrong?"

"——Evans!"

Isabelle did not answer, but with a sobbing voice, she threw herself into Edwards' arms without hesitation and hugged him tightly.

She hugged Edwards' waist with one hand, and hugged his back with the other hand, grabbing his long hair scattered on his back. Her face was directly buried in Edwards' arms, greedily breathing his breath deeply, and the girl who was still trembling before became stable at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Evans raised his hand and hugged Isabel back, holding her shoulders.

After a long time, Isabel was wrapped in a dull cry, buried in Edwards' arms and said loudly: "I don't want to marry a star antimony person! !

"——Save me, Edwards! Now I only have you..."

Her voice was extremely sincere, with extremely strong disgust and resistance, as well as trust and desire for the sense of security brought by Aiwass... It can be said to be extremely shocking.

Isabel didn't even say what happened throughout the whole process. But because of this, it seemed extremely real.

Such strong and tense emotional output is her strong point.

And what she said at this time was exactly what she wanted to say to Aiwass, or what she had said to Aiwass.

The acting of nine true and one false made Shafiya believe the truth of Isabel and Aiwass without hesitation. True feelings.

Even if James had not discovered Aiwass's identity in advance, he could only see that the two of them were indeed secretly developing a relationship and were unknown to the public.

—— At that moment, Shafiya was relieved. It was confirmed that the Moriarty family was indeed a friendly force.

If Aiwass had a great chance to become a prince, then the Moriarty family had no motive or position to betray the royal family.

Because Professor Moriarty was undoubtedly a smart man and a businessman.

Since Aiwass and Isabel were real lovers, if he handed Isabel over now, then It will cause huge and irreparable losses... and even so, it will not gain the trust of the new master.

If the Round Table Hall wants to hunt down Isabel, it can only be to silence her and confirm her identity as "fake Isabel".

And Isabel has developed a sincere relationship with Aiwass. Unless Aiwass is silenced, the possibility of Aiwass' betrayal in the future must be considered.

So unless the professor cuts Aiwass out and gives up the opportunity that will definitely make Aiwass a prince... otherwise he will definitely stand on their side.

No matter what the professor thought about this relationship beforehand Whether he knew or agreed, he had no choice now.

—— In just a moment, Shafiya found a breakthrough in the current situation.

At this time, the professor just looked at the two meaningfully, with an unconcealed smile on his face.

When he saw the close relationship between the two, he looked at them with interest and expectation as if he had seen something interesting.

Shafiya came up and whispered to Isabel about what happened: "Minister Droste poisoned the queen, and the Star Man found a substitute for Isabel in advance, ready to replace her identity and marry the Star Prince. Now the Round Table Hall has fallen into chaos... We escaped."

"...Oh, my God."

Professor Moriarty exclaimed.

His tone made Shafiya wonder if he was being sarcastic for a moment.

However, James soon sank his face and his attitude returned to seriousness: "How many fifth-level people did the Star Man bring? "

Professor Moriarty did not ask stupid questions like "Is this true?" or ask about the specific situation in the round table hall. Instead, he skipped many logical questions and asked the most critical question directly.

"Two."

Shafiya said very clearly: "One of them is Leo Karl, Lieutenant General of the Army... the incarnation of the Flame Demon.

"The other one is an old man from the Dusk Path. He is wearing the black robe of the School of the Dead. He should be a person of the black phase."

"Count Karl is familiar with Count Leipzig, and Count Leipzig is a person of the red phase."

When Professor Moriarty is serious, he becomes so reliable.

He crossed his hands in front of him with his fingers crossed, like a spider weaving a web with its feet against each other.

The old man analyzed the situation calmly and quickly: "One person from the Red Phase, plus one person from the Black Phase. Queen Louise is one of the Red Phase's 'daughters', and is at least a fourth-level Moon Child. It can also be judged as a fifth-level with hidden strength, and there is a high probability that she will carry a divine weapon.

"If Queen Louise is regarded as the representative of the Star Antimony royal family, then the three have reached a balance... Do you know what this means?"

"... They are wary of each other? Is this conspiracy the overall decision of Star Antimony?"

Shafiya was not very sure and answered vaguely.

She is actually very smart. But at this moment her brain has not completely cooled down from anxiety.

Being appointed as the Grand Judge means that she is the best at handling intelligence among the fifth-level strongmen.

"-It means that the other two parties have the opportunity to benefit from this matter alone, Ms. Shafiya. But the traitors of Avalon can only be loyal to one party, so we must still have a chance. "

Professor Moriarty's face was expressionless when he spoke, but it was full of persuasiveness and security.

"So don't be too nervous, ma'am. The situation is not as bad as you think."

There was a kind of incitement in his words, and he suddenly jumped the topic to another direction: "Although the Moriarty family is on the edge of the system of the founding family, we are not weak. Now that the Round Table Hall is almost controlled by Lloyd's, the Moriarty family, which has sufficient sources of funds, is the only founding family that is completely uncontrolled or influenced by Lloyd's.

"--Do you know what this means?"

Shafiya did not answer, she just shook her head and motioned Professor Moriarty to continue.

The professor slowly said: "Although you haven't said it in detail, I think there must have been a turmoil in the Round Table Hall. Now, the knights in the Round Table Hall who are completely loyal to the royal family are probably killed... because they are a minority and will be attacked by everyone.

"However, Xingtan will never give all the betrayers enough benefits - you may not know the economic situation of Xingtan, but I can say for sure that they can't afford this price at all.

"In other words, Xingtan must support individual ministers and Lloyd's executives to lead the pace and create a "big trend" to coerce others."

"...Yes," Shafiya nodded seriously, "I think it was Minister Droste."

Although she couldn't be sure that Droste was the one who poisoned the queen, because she couldn't see what specific method he used. But when the queen fell to the ground, Minister Droste's reaction must be wrong. Even if he was not the executor of the poisoning, he was definitely an insider.

"Very likely, ma'am."

Professor Moriarty nodded slightly: "As far as I know, Minister Droste got four manors and a viscountship in Xingtan. "

...Why didn't you say it earlier?

Shafiya was shocked and angry, and a silver-gray flame ignited in her eyes.

But before she could say it, Shafiya swallowed it back.

Anyway, it was useless to question it now, it would only push the precious ally away from her.

Looking at Shafiya's expression, Professor Moriarty obviously guessed what she was thinking.

He didn't explain why he didn't say it, but said directly: "Just before you came, Diomedes had just left. He wanted to trick Aiwas out to murder him, but I scared him away.

"This can only be an order from Droste-the reason is that Aiwas wrote a letter to Isabel, warning her. Obviously, the letter was intercepted and fell into the hands of Minister Droste.

"You should have seen him leave Moriarty Manor just now, and you should know that he came here at this time, and it must not be to discuss anything good with me, so we must not be allies. I believe that you can see that what I am saying at this moment is the truth. "

"...Indeed. "

Shafiya nodded with guilt: "I was excited, sorry."

But Aiwass looked at his adoptive father in astonishment, and the surprise in his eyes was not hidden at all: "How did you know...?"

"How do I know you wrote a letter?"

Professor Moriarty interrupted Aiwas directly, with a gentle and calm smile on his face: "You hang out with Sherlock every day, how can I not know what you are thinking? He is my most proud student.

"Your relationship with Her Royal Highness the Princess... I don't think there is anything to say, and people with discerning eyes can naturally see it. I will definitely stand on Aiwas' side, so the Moriarty family will also stand on Her Royal Highness the Princess... or the future Queen. If you have any ideas, try to share them with us."

The first half is undoubtedly the truth.

In this world line, Aiwass has no vigilance against his adoptive father, and his every move is completely under the observation and surveillance of Professor Moriarty.

And the latter sentence is obviously a foreshadowing for Aiwas to hide his identity.

The authoritarian path has a natural resistance to lies. For Shafiya, who can distinguish lies only by intuition, she can only let herself misunderstand... and it is obvious that the professor is an expert in this.

Just like Aiwass, he is proficient in the art of lying with the truth.

After being paved with such a foreshadowing by the professor, Shafiya can only think that Aiwass and Isabel's love affair has existed for a long time and has been exposed, and Professor Moriarty has seen it.

And since Aiwass and Isabel have been lovers for a long time...

Shafiya hesitated for a moment.

Then she stopped hesitating and directly told the secret of the "Shadow of Avalon" ceremony.

Although this is top secret... but at this point, the ceremony will either be completed or completely failed.

There is no point in hiding it anymore.

In order to complete the Shadow of Avalon ceremony, she must get the support of Professor Moriarty, so she needs to show her sincerity. She can't choose to hide the truth at this time... It's too stupid, it's like treating Professor Moriarty as a fool.

Of course he can't be a fool.

So Shafiya chooses to treat others with sincerity.
