Anyway, let’s eat something first.” Gao Naiyi put the fragrant and lightly sweet Yueling tea into his mouth and took out the biscuits to chew. The biscuits were baked very crispy and took into account his taste, with less sugar. "What is this?" Corneille saw a pink hair on it. Melusina said hastily, "Oh, sorry, I baked these cookies myself and my hair accidentally fell on them." Corneille threw the hair away: "It's okay." "So, are the cookies to your liking?" "great." Melusina breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great." “Thank you, Miss Melusina. If I have time later, I will prepare cookies as a return gift. "Well, that's very good. Monsieur Toledo told me that Monsieur Corneille is a very good cookie-maker."
Corneille replied: "Diaz's comments about me are always filtered. Miss Melusina, please don't expect too much from this. As long as you don't have any hope, you won't be disappointed in the future. "Mr. Corneille, you seem to have a low opinion of yourself." Melusina's speech became hesitant: "In my opinion, from a friend's point of view, you are a very good and fascinating man." "Thank you," replied Corneille. He felt hungry at this moment and continued to eat his biscuits, feeling Melusina's eyes on him. This made Corneille feel uneasy. The last person who looked at him so intently was Angelica, and the person before that was Camilla. However, it was too cruel for him to chase away others who had kindly baked snacks for him. Melusina looked at it for a long time, and finally remembered that it was impolite to do so. She awkwardly started a new topic: "I thought about it, and there is another possibility for his gender change." "what?" "Before coming to Waite, Mr. Toledo had been placed in a delayed supernatural power that would take effect after his arrival in Waite. It would be impossible for M. Corneille to find the murderer in Werther, because he did not commit the crime in Werther." Chapter 116 Six Sacrifices Corneille was silent for a moment and replied: "It is unlikely, because of some things. Before coming to Waite, I arranged for Dias to be examined in detail. If there is some hidden power that can hide from my eyes and the inspection of professionals, I think they don't need to play any conspiracy and can just come directly. "That's true," Melusina said. In any case, Corneille has to go to the Tower of Discipline to solve two problems: Is what Selena said true? And what is she not finished saying? The next day, he found Josephine. Josephine said: "You said the clue came from Selina? But you know, although Lord Amaraxunsa is a king of the forest with no sense of existence, his status as a king is unquestionable.
I can apply to the Tower for permission, but if she disagrees, there's nothing we can do." "What is Amarasunsa's position?" asked Corneille. Josephine explained: “If you think about it from the political standpoint of the Federation, then she has no position; If we consider it from the witch's perspective, her position is to benefit herself and to allow the weaker 'Tower' domain to be on an equal footing with other domains." "So there is no material in the 'trial' field to make a judicial deal with?" "Yes, but is it worth it? We investigated this matter because it is the responsibility of our branch. As far as the entire field is concerned, we do not have the initiative to protect Her Highness Isabella. She is an outsider, a foreigner, and even once was a man. Many traditional witches hate her and are afraid that she will become the object of imitation for the men of Waite. "But I think his Highness's party is quite lively," said Corneille. "Because there are federal men who don't follow male ethics, it's pleasing to the eye. This is two different things." Josephine asked: "Even though she asked you to wear the Black Eagle Knight Ring, is there any need for you to risk your life for her? Or is it like the recent rumors say..." Isabella's emotional problems have always attracted attention from all parties because they are related to her fertility, which in turn involves more complicated issues. Corneille did not want to be associated with Isabella as a lover because her son Alfonso had vowed to kill every lover of his father (as Alfonso still insisted on calling Isabella) and any children she might have. Among the royalists, everyone could accept that "Isabella was everyone's Isabella" and competition was limited to vying for favor. Once she got together with someone, that unlucky guy would probably face pressure from jealous people. As for the Three Kingdoms Alliance, it goes without saying that they absolutely did not want Isabella to have any offspring. Corneille was there only for Dias, to save her from the fate of her gender reassignment and to atone for his own mistakes. Therefore, he hurriedly distanced himself from Isabella and changed the subject: "The Trial field has tried quite a few criminals of the dark arts, right?" "Yes." "So, how much black magic is there to change human nature?" "No." "what?!" Josephine explained: "Because gender change is a wish that can be achieved through conventional means, while the wishes of witches who develop and use black magic are more grand, terrifying, selfish or anti-human. A trivial wish like gender change is not worth their developing black magic." "What about the black magic that can knock a person out, silence him, or make him sleep soundly at night?" asked Corneille. "No." "Isn't there any of this, too?" Josephine nodded: "Because the magic of the 'Moon' or 'Hermit' realm can satisfy your statement. Even if someone did commit a crime, it would be nothing more than the unauthorized use of magic from these two realms." Josephine submitted an application to Amarathon, and surprisingly, Amarathon was open to visiting the prison.
The two sides agreed to meet in the town of Nebuchadnezzar, and Corneille and Josephine saw that the king's representative was Lady Cady. "I haven't seen you for a month, Ms. Cady. I didn't expect you to be promoted," said Corneille. Director Kadi looked embarrassed: "No, no, no, I just confessed my sins to the king. The king forgave me and assigned me an errand." "We want to see Selina," said Corneille. "Okay, but you have to prepare enough scapegoats." "Take the blame for Selina?" "No, it's to ensure that no other realms will expand Selina's personal behavior into an accusation against the 'Tower' realm as a whole. We guarantee that whatever Selina did was her personal choice and did not involve the entire 'Tower' domain." I'm afraid that's not the case. Corneille thought to herself: At the moment when Selina was about to reveal the information, Amarasunsha decisively used Hayek's Hand to retrieve it. This shows that she is at least involved with the Count of Marseilles, and more likely has some secret deal with the people of the Triple Alliance. However, Corneille now had some evidence in his hand that was not very sufficient, but could make Isabella, an older and willful girl who always spoke based on her feelings and not on evidence, angry. After weighing the pros and cons, Amarasunsha probably didn't want to offend Isabella, so she chose to cut in order to maintain her own purity. On the surface, Corneille could only pretend to be confused: "I think our investigation is only aimed at the treason and assassination of Her Highness Isabella, and will not involve the 'Tower' domain or Lady Amaraxunsa." “So we need a guarantee.” Director Kadi said: "If we are attacked, we can confidently say that other fields have also done it, and the law does not hold everyone responsible, so we will be fine." Corneille looked at Josephine. Josephine nodded and said, "Okay, we will send the six witches from the realms of Queen, Justice, and Judgment to the Tower of Discipline as soon as possible." Director Kadi thought for a moment and said, "That's enough. Once you send the six witches to the Discipline Tower, we will let you meet Selina." "Will she reveal any useful information?" Cornelius asked: "I have seen your methods. You will not turn Selina into a foolish witch like No. 96, will you?" "How could that be? Lady Selina is a rare witch in the Tower who is proficient in combat skills. Our king has great use for her and will not let her become a fool. And she herself is also sympathetic. She just wanted to take advantage of men, such a simple hobby, but she was rejected by two men she loved. " Corneille thought of Don Rodick. He did not sympathize with Selina at all. Instead, he wondered if he should share Merritt's recent situation with her if he met Selina again. It is said that the girl who lost her memory fully trusted them and completely integrated into the life of Toledo Mansion. They are together now and in the future, and have nothing to do with Selena anymore. They stayed in the town and had a simple meal. Corneille had caused a great disturbance in the town of Nebuchadnezzar and had become a local celebrity. Unexpectedly, the townspeople showed no hostility towards him, but were very enthusiastic in asking him for autographs, taking out magic props and taking photos with him. Corneille soon realized that the reason for their enthusiasm was that they used him as a gimmick to attract a group of curious and energetic witches to visit and travel. The room where Corneille once lived was even vacated by the hotel owner and rented to the witch at double the price.
"Should I ask for portrait fees and copyright fees?" said Corneille. "The witches love you because you are free. If you ask them for money, they will hate you," said Josephine. "It seems that Waite's values are opposite to those of the Federation. In the Federation, money makes people love and hate." On the way back, Corneille asked Josephine about the six witches. Josephine asked back: "Did Mr. Tang Luodike talk to you about how he entered Waite?" "Something." "Well, his consciousness was probably very vague at that time. I can only give you a rough idea. The team escorting or escorting Mr. Tang Rodick was divided into two groups. One was the core team, and the list of members was kept confidential at the highest level. Even I did not have the authority to check those names. The other peripheral team was the team that escorted Mr. Tang Rodick in the eyes of the world. Although they came from the fields of the Queen, Justice, and Judgment, and looked very formal, they were actually just nameless people used for sacrifice in various fields. Nothing happened that year, so their sacrifice was postponed, and now it is their turn to fulfill the agreement. But this is not a good thing, Mr. Corneille, will you swear to keep it secret?" Corneille swore an oath. "I'll double-check their location. Once we confirm their situation, we'll work together to capture them," said Josephine. The "soon" Josephine mentioned was within a day. In the evening, a carriage engraved with the logo of the "Judgment" field stopped at the door of Toledo Mansion. Out of courtesy, Josephine formally visited the Duke of Alva (represented by Merit), and after obtaining her consent, hired Corneille and three subordinates. In the carriage, three witches from the "Judgment" witch realm waited with bated breath. Their professionalism made them indifferent when faced with the four men who got on the carriage. "cough." Corneille used his eyes to warn a witch who was trying to slip a small card to his subordinates. Josephine got on the bus last, picked up the folder left on the seat, opened the first page, and said: "The first target is Nesri, she is the oldest of the six targets, so she is in the best position to capture. After all, the range of activities of the elderly is not as large as that of young witches. She is also the strongest of the six targets, and is at the bottom of the senior level. So we must act at night. To be safe, you and I need to bring more people. Corneille nodded as if he understood: "So what kind of magic is this Lady Nessry good at? "She is a witch in the realm of 'Justice' and is skilled in punishment magic." "I thought the realm of Justice had lost its magic of punishment." "She was originally a member of the 'White Order', but was later expelled due to a scandal. She then returned to the current 'Justice' realm and earned a place in the organization by betraying the intelligence of her companions. "scandal?" "She is a dog lover, but her way of loving dogs is not decent and ethical." Josephine smiled bitterly and said, "Please don't look at me like that, Mr. Corneille. Witches don't play that big. We sometimes use transformation magic to turn our spouses into dogs, but normal people don't want to have sex with original dogs." Isn't that a big deal? Gao Naiyi thought.
As everyone knows, I have a habit in my recent few books, which is to arrange book friends to play minor roles. However, this matter is somewhat controversial. Either the names that the book friends give themselves as minor roles are outrageous, or the characters they roll out are outrageous, so it gives people a bad impression.
