Director Kadi whispered: "This person's origin is indeed a bit strange. First of all, she was escorted here by the 'witch' of the 'justice' field... to be honest, it was a female extraordinary person from the Knight State. Normally, this job is done by the beasts of burden in the 'Chariot' realm. It is strange enough that the noble witches in the 'Justice' realm would look down on people and lower themselves to do this job. Then, that group of people had a secret talk with the warden for a long time. The warden told us to settle down well and not to bully No. 96 too much, nor to let No. 96 live too comfortably... Look, what a difficult order. After that, there were many people wearing blue coats outside the town. Nominally they were mercenaries hired by the warden, but in fact they were members of the Barbarigo family. It was no big deal. When we talked privately, we couldn't understand why the warden allowed outsiders to reach out here. No matter how poor it was, the Discipline Tower was still a territory directly under the king. " Thus, Cecil got the possible allies of Count Marseille: the Barbarigo family of the Knight State, and Michaela, the "senior" of the Tower Realm. After the collapse of the Heaven-Connecting Tower, the king's direct territory in the 'Tower' area was deliberately divided into four unconnected pieces. The current 'King of the Forest' Amalashunsha nominally ruled the four territories, but at least in the Discipline Tower, the warden Michaela had the final say. Michaela's resume is equally mysterious. In official records, she first appeared in 1224, serving her sentence in the tower as a guilty witch. After the whole territory of Weite was pardoned in 1227, she stayed in the tower as a guard, was later promoted to director of the security department, and was promoted to warden in 1232. Considering the life experience of Count Marseille, the two men may have met before 1224, but it is more likely that they were introduced by someone in the field of "justice" in recent years.
Doctor Cecil had a thousand thoughts in his mind, but on the surface he only showed disappointment: "Since he is a prisoner that the warden values, then forget it." "Yes, that is to say, we are in the same boat. That's why I tell you that outsiders like the Church of the Holy Fool and the Waite Survival Department know more about the Tower of Discipline than anyone else, but they know nothing!" Doctor Cecil first performed physical examinations on the guilty witches. The Discipline Tower was divided into seven floors. The third floor was where she visited most often, and it housed the hospital and delivery room of the Discipline Tower. The fourth floor is where the guilty witches with children live. The fifth floor is where the magic of discipline is studied and practiced. The warden's office is also on this floor. The sixth and seventh floors housed the young and old guilty witches respectively. Today was the routine physical examination day of the Discipline Tower, and she and other doctors were going to check from the seventh floor down. The old witches were almost worthless, and the care they received was just a formality. After a perfunctory examination, the doctors quickly moved to the next floor. The doctors spent a whole day examining all the guilty witches registered in the Discipline Tower. Three witches were found to be pregnant, so their living conditions and food supply were immediately upgraded. The other doctors went to eat, and Cecil came to the confinement room built in the basement of the Discipline Tower. He saw No. 96 tied to a chair, sleeping with his head down. The doctor already knew the life story she told, but had no mercy. She used instruments on Don Rodick, and the strange feeling of invasion woke up the drowsy Don Rodick and caused him to convulse. Don Rodick stared at the strange woman in front of him. Doctor Cecil pricked her skin with his fingers and injected magic power. The intense pain made Don Rodick shed tears. Don Rodique initially thought it was a new torture, but soon she noticed that the doctor's fingers were writing words... the common language of the Church, which is a variant of the common language of the Federation, a language that everyone who has lived in the Holy Land is obliged to learn. After spelling out a few words, Don Rodick roughly understood what Cecil conveyed: the doctor wanted her to cooperate with Sister Helena's plan and endure the pain. Dr. Cecil twisted the prop, and a tearing sensation came from his abdomen, causing Don Rodick to scream in pain. His face lost color and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down. She was in pain, but endured it because of the newly awakened hope. She looked at Cecil with determined eyes, as if she wanted to remember the witch with long light green hair in front of her. "Nice look, and even better if you could understand what your first sacrifice for freedom is," the doctor whispered. After the big bell in the Discipline Tower rang eighteen times, the doctor packed up his equipment and left the confinement room. Because the guards often did shady things here, the monitors who should have been there and the monitoring equipment that should have recorded the confinement room were all of no use. Director Kadi invited Cecil to dinner and asked how many guilty witches were suitable for accounting and how much she could take this time. Cecil said first: "I swear in the name of my most beloved 'Magician' field, 'King of the Forest' Jasmine Melville: After my examination, I found that Prisoner No. 96 had a laceration in her birth canal. Judging from the injury, this was a recent incident." Director Kadi stopped pouring the wine. No. 96 had been confined in the detention room since yesterday evening, so her laceration could only have occurred before... The Duke of Alva's male obligations, what that fool said was true!
Regardless of whether the Duke of Alva had actual power or not, he was nominally a great nobleman from a foreign country, and his intercourse with a sinful witch would have different characterizations depending on the different possibilities: The worst possibility is that No. 96 seduced the Duke of Alva and made the Duke involuntarily perform things that were beyond the scope of male obligations (underage version). In this way, not only No. 96, but also those associated with her will be punished.” "doctor!" Director Cuddy stared at Cecil and said, "Open your toolbox. I want to check the props you brought!" "You're not dreaming that I caused the injury temporarily to induce you to have wild thoughts, are you?" Cecil was very disdainful: "Well, my last oath gave you room for fantasy, so I'll make another oath - I swear in the name of my most beloved 'Magician' field 'King of the Forest' Jasmine Melville: I am not the one who caused the lacerations to Prisoner No. 96. " "enough!" The director interrupted Cecil and said that when the witch swore by the true name of the king of the forest in her art, the oath magic she initiated had a very strong binding force and could almost be regarded as "truth." But to the witch in the "Magician" field who invented the magic of oath, this is just a word game using truth and sincerity. Compared to oath magic, checking the props is more direct. Because the moment the witches are injured, they will reflexively concentrate their magic power towards the wound, and the higher concentration of magic power will leave marks on the props that come into contact with their wounds. No matter how physical or magical cleaning methods are used, it is impossible to completely erase the traces. If Cecil did it, then her tools must have left traces. Cecil sneered and opened the box. Director Cuddy rushed over like crazy, picking up one tool after another, his expression changing from madness to despair. When the last prop had been carefully examined, Director Cuddy slumped down in his chair and muttered, "No scratches." "If you need me to, I can swear again that these props were used on No. 96 today, but judging by your expression, it's no longer necessary." Cecil poured a glass of wine and poured it over Director Cady's head: "Now, are you sober? We should discuss the matter between Prisoner No. 96 and the Duke of Alva." Chapter 34: The Wisdom of Successors "No, if this gets out of hand, we'll all be in trouble!" Director Kadi gritted his teeth and said, "Doctor, help me, and you'll also help yourself!" "Are you threatening me? Honey...what's your name?" The doctor smiled and said, "Because you guys are changing so frequently, I won't remember the names of you middle-level managers. The warden is very careful about his reputation and doesn't want to get too close to someone like me who walks in the gray area, so he sends someone like you to do business with me and earn extra income in an honest way. You want to drag me into this, but aren't you also dragging your employer into this? She should be able to deal with you faster than you can reveal the facts and gain influence. Dear, calmly consider your future. If you make the wrong choice, perhaps my next operation will be to cut off part of your brain to clean up the mess for the warden. " After thinking for a moment, Director Kadi raised his head and said, "I...this matter must be resolved in private. I will go to the Duke of Alva and negotiate with him to suppress this matter!" "No, he must say that he did not have intercourse with Prisoner 96. This way, other reasons can be used to explain Prisoner 96's lacerations - such as she stabbed herself for fun, or it was an accident during the activity. It seems that as long as the Duke of Alva does not admit this, everything is just the nonsense of a foolish woman. To be safe, give her some contraceptive pills. This is my idea, do you have a better solution? "
Director Kadi poured herself a glass of wine. She was so flustered that she couldn't think of any solution. She said, "Let's do it!" She sent someone to inform the Duke of Alva through teleportation magic. Dias was eating in the school cafeteria at the time. When he heard someone slandering his innocence, his face turned red and he sat down with his hands on his chest. Anne winked at him, then solemnly said to the messenger of the Discipline Tower: "Mr. Toledo has a heart disease. If anything happens to him, you will be responsible for your words and deeds." The remarks of a certain Longueville made matters more difficult. After a moment, Dias, who had recovered from his illness, claimed that he was not feeling well and could not go in person. He authorized his two companions that day, Corneille and guard officer Polly Grayclaw, to go to the Discipline Tower to prove his innocence. Seeing a hint of anger in Annie's smile, the messenger from the Discipline Tower dared not say anything more and went back to report. At two o'clock in the afternoon, Polly, who came to pick up Diaz, heard this. Her suspicious eyes swept between Diaz and Anne, and finally stopped on Anne. "Hey, little devil, it was your bad idea," said Polly. "What does this have to do with me?" "Your family is always hurting people like this!" Anne yawned. "Ha~ Instead of picking on me for no reason, you should restore Mr. Toledo's reputation as soon as possible. Mr. Toledo, I'm a little tired today. Excuse me, I'll take my leave first." "See you tomorrow, Miss Longueville." Polly sent Dias home, dragged Corneille out of the mansion, and said coldly: "You are really good at having fun! But please don't torment me." Corneille took out the banknotes from her wallet. Polly, who had suffered a loss before, took out a black square box prop and scanned the banknotes. After confirming that they were real, her tail wagged happily. "We cannot sit idly by while attempts are made to defame the Duke's innocence." Polly hesitated and asked, "So, there really is no ..." Corneille said seriously: "Your delusion is a bit rude, Miss Polly. The Duke's current physical condition does not allow him to engage in strenuous activities. I will not joke with his life." Polly nodded: "Okay, I will record and report what I saw. I will neither take the initiative to do anything nor help you cover up. However, if what you are planning is harmful to the interests of the master I serve, I will take a different approach at that time." "I respect your position, Miss Polly." Polly called a teleportation magician to take her and Corneille to the town closest to Nebuchadnezzar, and then they took a carriage to the Tower of Discipline. By the time they arrived, it was already dark. They didn't bother to eat and prioritized their business. What made Director Cady feel a little relieved was that the testimonies of Polly and Corneille unanimously stated that the Duke of Alva and No. 96 were innocent... Regardless of whether it was true or not, it could be regarded as a statement from the Duke's side. "I want to meet No. 96 and ask her why she falsely accused my employer," said Corneille. This was a reasonable request, and the people in the Discipline Tower took Corneille and others to the confinement room. Considering the impact, Tang Luodike had been released from most of his confinement in advance, with only his hands tied. "Look up, No. 96." Corneille said: "The Duke, out of sympathy, mustered up the courage to talk to you, accompanied you tenderly at a socially polite distance, and gave you money. Is this how you repay him?" No. 96 raised her head, stared blankly at Corneille for a while, and suddenly looked up at the ceiling. Everyone followed her gaze and looked up, not noticing the blood gushing out from her buttocks.
In the first second, she manipulated the blood to spurt out, destroying the restraints; The next second, the blood recondensed into a dagger in her hand and rushed straight towards Corneille; In the third second, the dagger stabbed towards Corneille's throat, but Corneille raised his arm to block it; In the fourth second, Polly tackled her to the ground from the side and restrained her. "You big bad guy, I want to sleep with that boy and you stop me!" No. 96 raised his head and spat at Cornell: "I got the wound just for this! You bad guy, go to hell!" Polly punched No. 96 and said, "Behave yourself, or I'll cut off your arm!" "I want to sleep with that boy. I feel my lower abdomen getting hot when I see him. Why can't you let me sleep with him?" No. 96 cried loudly, mixed with Polly's exasperated "quiet" voice. The authority of male guards can only be fully activated when accompanying their protected objects, so what Polly can do is quite limited. Corneille looked at his arm, where the tiny wound made by No. 96 was oozing blood. He said to Director Cady, who was eager to explain, "Don't worry, I'm not going to vent my anger on you, but between me and No. 96, the Duke and No. 96... this matter is not over yet! I will file a complaint with the Political and Legal Affairs Department and wait for the lawsuit!" The good news for Director Cady was that the Duke of Alva had not been seduced; the bad news was that Corneille was not an easy person to deal with either. She slapped No. 96 and ordered him to be restrained. Corneille calmly told her that he hoped she would not resort to lynching, otherwise people would misunderstand that he and the Duke of Alva were taking private revenge. In Waite, it was almost unthinkable and unforgivable for a man to lynch a witch. Corneille was very worried that Director Cady would make No. 96 suffer and turn the tables, putting him and the Duke of Alva in a passive position in public opinion. Director Kadi did think so. Among the twenty-two fields, the "Tower" field has become a secondary field among secondary fields, and to a certain extent, it has even become a vassal of the "Justice" field. Whether guards or prisoners, they are all weaklings who are rejected by other realms. But the weak are not dead, they also have their own ways of fighting, which are not "magical", but they maintain the existence of the "Tower" realm. However, Director Kadi's talent is concentrated on making money, and she is mediocre in other aspects. Now her tricks have been seen through in an instant, and she can't find a new person to blame for the time being. Polly is still there, but Director Cuddy doesn't want to offend the Male Management Department and the master Polly is loyal to. She looked at Cecil for help, and the doctor whispered, "Your trading partner is the Longueville family. The lady of that family is a classmate of the Duke of Alva." Thanks to this relationship, Director Cadi managed to soften Corneille's tone. Apart from reiterating that No. 96 must not be abused and that he and the Duke of Alva should take the blame, he adopted an attitude that everything else could be discussed. Director Cuddy breathed a sigh of relief. "It can be discussed" meant that the situation could be delayed, and delay meant that she had a chance to get rid of responsibility. After Cecil's encouragement, she no longer wanted to do it. Although this position could make money, it was undoubtedly expendable to the warden. She has saved a lot of money in the past few years. She can bribe the warden, get through the connections, and transfer to another place as soon as possible. She can just trust the wisdom of her successor to deal with the current mess. Chapter 35 Menstruation Waite's condition did not allow the carriage to travel at night, so Corneille and Polly had to stay in the town. Corneille wanted to book two rooms, and Polly was unusually generous and took the initiative to pay for... one room, but by bribing the front desk, she got the receipt for two rooms. Gao Naiyi was very surprised: "Are you greedy for this kind of money?" "Ah, every penny is important. Because I have elderly people and younger brothers and sisters at home. If I work and earn more money, they can live a better life."
Polly was a little confused: "I am also saving for my retirement. Being a soldier is a profession that depends on youth. Once you are past your physical peak, you will become less and less able to do your job.
