2027 Inquiry

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Lins of dark figures and huge axes and halberds began to appear in the dim passage as they stepped deeper, accompanied by an overwhelming pressure and an involuntarily silent atmosphere. Duan, who was brought here by the previous guards,

Qing and others then crossed the last corner of the principality's underground area under such circumstances, and came to an unknown secret area that was heavily guarded with breathlessness: "——Yes, since Tania rebuilt

After that, we secretly changed the restoration and construction plan, and selected such a place while restoring the boundary between Tania’s surface and the underground passage to its original state.”

"Every city needs a 'garbage station' where filth can hide, even a city like Tanya." In the silent movement of the walking team, Duan Qing represented the others and the guards leading the way.

He answered politely: "But whether you are the Speaker or the leaders of countless generations of parliaments before you, you must understand this truth very well. Tania's prison for serious crimes must have been like that for a long time.

Exist."

"The place where felons are imprisoned and punished is not the same as the place we are in now." Amidst the rhythmic clanging of armor, the guard leading the way replied in a low voice: "'That one' is not suitable either.

We should be detained in those known places, and at least the location cannot be exposed to others, otherwise we will suffer various attacks within three days."

"The so-called secret detention center is naturally a place set up to hide the public's eyes and ears and try not to let outsiders know." Once again passing by a patrolling soldier, the principal soldier who led the way raised his axe.

The arm of the halberd: "Of course, to Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess of the empire, this place is not a secret, but as the representative of the Fleur Empire stationed here, she has already - well."

"Here we are."

The fishy smell of the underground waterway became lighter after stepping onto the slope. The principal guard who was the first to climb up the front paused for a moment. Duan Qing, who was aware of it, then raised his head and faced the opponent with his companions.

Looking at the end of the indicated direction: "...Where is it?"

"Right at the end of that passage."

A square space with a small cleared open space appeared in front of the gray-robed magician, and matched with it was the top of the curved passage corridor at the side corner. Two heavy armored soldiers stationed there also heard the sound.

He turned his head and looked face to face with the guard leading the way: "Are they them?"

"That's right." He waved his hand at Duan Qing and others. The soldier leading the way looked back with a look full of indifference and ruthlessness: "Go in, the time is only thirty minutes."

"Aren't you guys watching?"

"There's nothing to spy on."

Waving his hands to answer Duan Qing's following questions, the guard put the heavy weapon in his hand on the wet ground: "Although I don't know why the Speaker satisfied your request, you are destined to return without success this time.

, because that person’s mind has long been abnormal, and no useful content can be asked from his mouth.”

"Of course, the prison is surrounded by magic barriers and magic barriers, and the heavy masonry cannot be broken easily." The guard who said this added: "The only way to enter is this direction. I want to take him to escape.

It’s impossible to get out.”

"We are not here to take him out. The only ones who want to take him out are...well, there is probably no such person now." The words that came out of his mouth were taken back loudly, and Duan Qing scratched himself with an innocent look on his face.

Head: "It seems that Her Royal Highness the Princess has no reason to rescue him. From the perspective of the Imperial Princess, letting him stay here to die is actually a better way to deal with it."

"So we have long said that we don't know why the Fleur Empire wants to find someone like her to be the negotiating representative." In the scene of two tall figures separated to the left and right by the arcade in front, the guard responsible for leading the way looked down.

He answered Duan Qing's question with a smile: "It made such a big fuss... Haha."

"In our eyes, the more noise the imperial princess makes, the lower the success rate of bringing back the 'former prince.'"

Putting the laughter of the guards behind, Duan Qing and his party entered the final passage. The darkness and depth from the end of the passage gradually receded in the magical lighting of Qian Zhihe, and finally appeared in front of them.

Outlining the standard appearance of an underground prison: "Iron doors and iron railings...hey, there really is no creativity at all."

"This is the most effective way of imprisonment. Those fancy prisons and the like are just nonsense... Hey, is there anyone in there?"

"If no one does bad things, we might become the second scapegoat. By the way, how did the Fool Adventure Group at that time get involved with the former prince of the empire?"

"You didn't ask the people involved in the Fool's Adventure Group when they were present. Now you come here to ask me? How do I know what's going on? Are the news and analysis posts flying all over the Internet not enough for you?"

"who is it!?"

A howl then appeared on the other side of the prison, interrupting the casual whispers made by Duan Qing and the others as they approached. The stumbling sound of the iron chains colliding with each other and the heavy pounding of the ground also merged into a series of galloping

The roar that came, finally turned into a muffled sound of metal and iron hitting the other side of the iron door: "Let me out! Let me out! You bastards! You know me

Who is it? I am the prince of the empire! Drenir’s most respected son!”

"Doesn't he sound normal?" The hand covering his ears relaxed a little, and Qian Zhihe, who was standing aside, took the lead in raising his doubtful eyes: "Does it sound like he still knows who he is?"

"Don't make trouble, this is an epic meeting that we have worked hard to secure." Duan Qing, who signaled the other party to continue lighting work and ignored the noise in front, pushed back the other party's head when he took the opportunity: "I want to directly

Now is probably the best opportunity to understand the true nature of that incident."

"As to why he behaves so normally - we'll see."

After gesturing in the direction of Bai Bu Wushuang, the team completed the division of labor in the fastest and most tacit way. Chao Ri Dongsheng, who was carrying a long sword, followed the archers and blocked the other side of the passage, using

Their respective bodies partially blocked what was happening at the door of the prison: "You bastards! If you don't let me go! I will let you know what fear is!"

"We are not from the principality, and there is no point in telling us this." As if he was sure that he could cover up the other party's crazy voice and the harsh noise of knocking on the iron door, Duan Qing reported in an octave lower than the other party's voice.

The identity and purpose of the visit were revealed: "We are guests of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and we can also be considered as envoys sent by her. What is the purpose of our visit - you should know better than us, right?"

"...Rena?" The roaring and howling voice paused for a moment, and then turned into a shrinking panic on the other side of the prison iron door: "No, no! Don't come over! I, I won't see you!

"

"Don't worry, we are not here to 'deal with' it." Duan Qing seemed to have expected the other party's reaction. He exchanged a look with Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was also squatting by the iron door: "We have already gone through so much.

After a long time, if Her Royal Highness Princess Reina wanted to deal with you, I am afraid you would have disappeared here long ago."

"She, how dare she!"

The heavy breathing roared on the other side of the door for a moment, and finally turned into a sad smile: "How dare she kill me! Even if I feed her the courage of three bears, she will never dare to do it! That will only

Confirm her ambition to seek power and usurp the throne!"

"Everyone knows that I am the legitimate heir to the Fleur Empire! I am the most valued heir of Father Drenier!" The roaring voice began to get louder and louder, mixed with the sound of the collision of iron chains and iron doors.

The beating sound: "She can't defeat me on a frontal battlefield! That's why she uses this despicable method! That's right -"

"She secretly planned what happened this time!" The words mixed with various harsh collisions began to become confusing: "It's her! Everything is a conspiracy planned by her! Only she can stop my father from taking me out of here.

Get out! Let me suffer humiliation here!"

"So how did she do it?"

"I...how do I know how she did it! She must have controlled my body! That's right! She must have used some evil magic from another country! How could this prince attack a woman like that country bumpkin?

Still a pariah in the principality!”

"But this is the fact. According to the information we have, you killed many guards who wanted to stop you on that day, and finally tried to escape-"

"It's all a lie! It's an illusion! Everything is a lie! I was recuperating in that tasteless and devoid of dignity hospital! How could I have the strength to hurt others? And there are so many elite guards of the principality!

"

"It's wrong to say that, Your Highness. After all, so many people are identifying you now, but you just deny the existence of this possibility in this vague way... Ahem, isn't there some more powerful evidence?"

"His Royal Highness Prince Chris."

The cold voice finally calmed down the chaotic rhythm of the conversation, and the sharp eyes of Xueling Huanbing, who finally spoke, gradually covered the embarrassed figure between the iron gate and the iron fence: "I didn't know you were imprisoned here.

How long, I don’t know what kind of treatment you have suffered before, but please regard this meeting as your last chance and tell us all the truth you know."

"Based on the current situation and situation in the outside world, except for us, I'm afraid no one is willing to take the initiative to help you." In the atmosphere that gradually quieted down, Xue Ling Huan Bing's cold voice still wandered back and forth between the passages: "This may be

Your last chance, if you don’t provide valid information, you may be buried here forever with the truth of the matter, do you understand?”

"...of course I understand."

The voice on the other side of the iron fence was silent for a long time, and the voice that sounded again became hoarse because of the previous roar: "The empire's envoys must have arrived here for a long time, right? From the time I remember it until now, it seems that

How many months have passed? How many years? No, I have been in this dark place for too long..."

"They only sent someone once during this period, but that damn former imperial minister didn't believe what I said at all." The person who was speaking seemed to hold his head and groaned in pain: "

But I really don’t know anything! I, I don’t know why I appeared there at all, why there was such a woman under my body, I...I only remember...if I was discovered like that,

Everything was lost for me, so I had to get up and run away..."

"You claim that you are unconscious? And then something like that happened inexplicably?" After looking at each other again with Duan Qing, Xue Ling Huan Bing continued to speak with a somewhat disdainful sneer in her tone: "Haha

, This is the most clumsy excuse. Even in the imperial court, it is impossible for any juror to believe such rhetoric."

"I, everything I said is true! I, I don't know... I don't know..." His emotions fell into a state of collapse. The man inside the iron gate responded with a bit of crying in his voice:

"Hell, I really have seen a ghost. Why did this happen? Why... why did it happen to me? Could it be that Emperor Frey and the ancestors no longer protect me?"

"Then what's going on with the Fool's Adventure Group? Why are they helping you?" Xue Ling Huan Bing, who took a deep breath and began to lead the inquiry, continued to pursue: "Are they just fulfilling their guard duties?

Or were they already aware of this development?"

"I, I don't know." The voice inside the door stuttered and replied: "I don't know anything. Maybe they planned all this, or maybe it was those damn principality people, and the damn empire people, yes,

It’s Reina, that guy who has no bloodline, no honor, and no humanity... In short, it’s not me who did it! I didn’t do anything!”

"Please believe me!"

The sound of the collision of iron chains on the other side of the prison became intense again, and the roars mixed in among them also turned into cries at this moment. Xue Ling Huan Bing, who stopped asking, then looked at Duan Qing.

, seemed to get the answer he wanted from the latter's eyes: "It seems that he is not crazy."

"Violet has confirmed that his mental state should still be within the scope of a normal person." Duan Qing lowered his voice and replied: "Look, so what is said by the outside world that 'Prince Chris is crazy'

Such rumors are themselves nonsense."

"If I had heard such testimony, I would have thought he was crazy." Xue Ling Huan Bing shook her head: "How could anyone defend themselves like this? How could anyone say such a thing?

believe?"

"But after such a long period of torture, he still insists so much that I actually believe it." Duan Qing took a deep breath: "When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. If you want to clear Mengzhu and the others' suspicion——

"

"It seems we need to start from more places."
