100. Willing to meddle and unwilling to meddle

 What the Elf King wants is an explanation.

This statement is given to those in the country who oppose peace talks.

What Grand V wants is a step up.

A step that can keep the empire's face and quickly close the case.

What they want is actually a murderer. After all, the murderer has become a basket, and all dirty things can be thrown into it.

Lu Yu could imagine that once the cat-faced murderer was caught, there would be a large amount of evidence proving that he had committed countless crimes, and these crimes were probably committed by the person who reported the crime.

Lu Yu took out the hard fruit candy he bought in the city from his arms, fed one to Lulutis, and took one in his own mouth.

He didn't express any opinions. He didn't want to do this multiple-choice question.

Lu Yu is not from the Grand Empire. Whether he wants order or justice should depend on Heather.

Heather was hesitating. This great mage, also known as a genius, moved his lips. He wanted to say something several times, but in the end he swallowed it all.

She wanted to know what Lu Yu, who had traveled a lot and was knowledgeable and interesting, thought about it, but what she saw was Lu Yu closing his eyes and concentrating.

The cat-faced murderer is brought to justice. The Elf King is satisfied, His Majesty is satisfied, and the people of the two countries will also feel very satisfied. Peace has returned again...

There seems to be nothing wrong with such an ending.

Heather thought about taking the first step to the second floor of the barn, then looked back at Lu Yu.

"You take yourself too seriously."

In the darkness, Lu Yu sighed and changed his mind.

The murderer stared at Lu Yu, not understanding what he meant.

"Twenty years ago, His Majesty's second son committed suicide in order to prove his innocence, hoping to prevent the Grand Empire from being involved in endless wars. However, in the end the war still broke out."

"In front of the country, the power of an individual is very small. Unless you are so powerful that you can destroy the country alone, you cannot prevent the operation of the will at the national level... just like the arrival of peace."

"I can't understand what Sir said."

"Through your conversation, I can guess that you are well-educated, speak well-reasoned, slow and elegant... But after all, you are just an ordinary person and do not have the ability to analyze the information in the palace and obtain that information.

channel."

"So you are worried because of the rumors among the people, and you feel that the death of an elf will cause the peace that has come to disappear. You are even worried that you take the initiative to stand up and admit that you are a murderer. You want to take over all the sins and avoid thinking about it yourself.

The tragedy is repeated.”

The dead elves and the cat-faced murderers who want to take the blame are insignificant in front of these wills that have been twisted into a rope because they are tired of war.

The death of an elf is far from shaking the peace that has begun between the two countries, because this peace is promoted by the most powerful factions in the two countries.

As long as the rational faction prevails and the people's voices calling for peace are echoing, and as long as one of the two remains, peace will last.

Because the elves have seen the tenacity of humans, humans have realized the power of elves.

Twenty years of fighting allowed the people at the bottom to take the lead in reaching reconciliation.

Therefore, killing an ordinary elf just to destroy peace is not enough.

Unless the person behind it can kill more elves, or even people with higher status.

You must know that the war was caused by the death of the little elf princess, who was the elf king's most beloved daughter.

It was the second prince who committed suicide that made the Grand Empire's will to resist rise.

In order to clear away the suspicion and return peace to his people, his own prince sacrificed his own life, awakened those cowardly people, and regained the land captured by the elves.

Lu Yu didn't make his words clearer. The smart cat-faced murderer should know what he didn't express.

"What will really affect peace are, first, the people of the two countries who are really tired of the war, and second, the emperors and nobles who have the right to speak at home."

"Your life is not important, and neither is the life of the dead elf."

The house was very quiet, and Lu Yu and Heather could hear the heavy breathing of the cat-faced murderer.

Heather's magic has restrained the hands of the cat-faced murderer.

"By the way, I have another guess here. Do you want to hear it?"

Heather sighed and said a little tiredly: "Please, my dear Sir."

"You have captured the cat-faced murderer. After His Majesty declares the punishment and before the Elf King returns to Thoresen, the person who actually killed the Elf will come out to commit another crime."

"Since a small elf can't affect the overall situation, people may choose a big shot to kill... Oh, think about it carefully, even if you don't attack the big shot and kill a small character, the Grand Empire was finally created in Thoresen."

The impression of strong unity will be shattered and replaced by the ignorance of the monarch of the Grand Empire, the incompetence of his subordinates, and the corruption of his rule..."

The flesh on Heather's cheeks kept twitching.

The cat-faced murderer suddenly realized that running out and surrendering himself might not be a wise choice.

It doesn't matter if Heather catches her now, it doesn't matter if she doesn't catch him.

It is absolutely impossible to arrest him and only review the seven cases that the cat-faced murderer recognized before. After all, everyone is waiting to label the murderer. Even if you say that he is not the murderer of elves, who will believe it?

It has to be yes even if it’s not.

But if he doesn't catch him, how can he count the seven lives in his hands?

The cat-faced murderer was more anxious than Heather. He anxiously asked Lu Yu if what he just said was true.

"The continuous crimes are too arrogant. Now all the Thoresen elves are active near the station. Even if they go out, they are protected by the knights. He can't do anything."

"Be sensible, Heather. You are called a genius by them after all. Don't be so naive when thinking about things. If there is one, then there are two. When the little princess was killed, was the other party afraid because the target was the little princess?"

"What's more, does he have to do the murder himself? Can't he find a confidant to do it? Can't he hire a human killer at a high price to do it?"

"If the other party is determined to prevent the two countries from getting back together, then he will definitely take action again in the Grand Empire, because once he returns, he will not be able to throw dirty water on Grand."

Heather's eyes flashed fiercely: "I led people to personally guard the station, and all the elves' outbound protection continues to be upgraded. I don't believe he dares to take action like this."

Lu Yu smiled and did not correct him. Instead, he sat down on the hay next to him and let Lulutis massage him with her tentacles.

I walked too much and my whole body felt a little stiff.

Heather suddenly discovered that the group of tentacle monsters Lu Yu had been summoning seemed quite practical. The massage effect must be very good... Lu Yu felt so comfortable that he even hummed.

"It depends on what you want. Oh... it feels comfortable. Move it towards your neck, yes... oh, it feels comfortable."

"If you simply want to keep the peace at this moment, you can continue to raise the security level so that the mastermind behind it can't take action and are forced to return to Thoreson with the Elf King."

"But you have to think carefully. If you put it back, he will definitely find ways to provoke war between the two countries until he gets everything he wants."

"The lifespan of elves is much longer than ours. If the mastermind who killed the little princess twenty years ago was also an elf, then he has seen the end of a war and watched two generations of the Grand Empire die. And his... appearance has not changed.

, time is cruel to us humans, but it is extraordinarily gentle to him."

"When the generation that is calm, wise, and capable of solving problems all ages, will your body still have enough energy to deal with one tedious matter after another, and find the truth against the conspiracies and tricks thrown by the other party?"

"What this generation can solve, let this generation solve it. If future generations are incompetent, this country can hold on a little longer and give them room for trial and error."

Heather and the cat-faced murderer looked at Lu Yu blankly, both shocked by what Lu Yu said just now.

"Lu Yu, your country and your ancestors must have left a lot of wealth for you."

The cat-faced murderer said enviously.

Lu Yu just smiled noncommittally.

Heather admired Lu Yu's thoroughness in seeing things, and he was worthy of being a great magician who had traveled to many places.

"Do you have any ideas?"

"There is no good way, only a stupid way, but if you use it well, it will have miraculous effects."

After whispering the description into the other person's ear, Aesop let out an "ah" in surprise.

This reaction was exactly the same as Heather's reaction when she heard about her plan.

"Can it be done..."

"I think it's completely feasible, tighten it first and then loosen it, and the plot is within a logical range. If the other party wants to try it, they will definitely seize these few opportunities."

"No, no, no, you misunderstood me...I mean, is it okay if I wear women's clothes? I will be found out..."

Lu Yu didn't expect that Aesop's dilemma would be here.

He looked Aesop up and down. He was not particularly tall, had a well-proportioned figure, fair skin, and was quite handsome. Just looking at his profile, he thought he was a girl.

"You have a good foundation. Just put on a little makeup and make sure no one knows you are a man."

Aesop burst into laughter. He really didn't know whether to be happy or embarrassed about Lu Yu's praise.

"To be serious, this is a bit dangerous. Although you have level 4 strength, it is not safe enough, so I will give you a bodyguard."

Aesop looked at Lulutis on Lu Yu's shoulder.

A seventh-level magician is willing to control the summoned objects by himself... This is great!

What kind of strength does the seventh-level summoned object have? What does this black mist feel like? Aesop can't wait to know.

Lulutis naturally noticed Aesop's gaze and complained in the chat room.

"Why is this kid staring at me? He doesn't think I will give him a fourth-level little character as a bodyguard."

Lu Yu reminded awkwardly: "Since you haven't tested my rank yet, I am now a small character with zero rank..."

"How can he compare with you!"

Lu Yu was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "Yes, I like to hear this!"

This time, Lulutis was silenced.

Lu Yu coughed and invited the mist demon who transformed into Aesop.

"Mist demon, please change back. It's not polite to imitate others..."

"no, I'm fine!"

When Aesop saw the mist demon, he quickly waved his hand to stop Lu Yu, then quickly stepped forward and looked at "himself" seriously.

"It's like looking into a mirror that only shows grayish white... Although the lines are a little uneven in thickness, they still look like it."

The fog demon proudly puffed out his chest: "If this fog demon were stronger, I would be able to get some color."

Aesop was so proud that he applauded him repeatedly and called him awesome, as if he was coaxing a child.

Because the perpetrators were most likely to be among the elves or people from the Grand Empire, Lu Yu had no intention of telling too many people about the plan.

For this reason, to protect Aesop, there is no way to use the combat power of the elves, and we can only use our own people.

No matter how childish the Mist Demon is, it is still a mithril-level monster, and I heard from the locals that there is often fog near the station late at night and early in the morning. Although it is not big, it is enough for the Mist Demon to perform its best.

In order to pretend that he was really discussing magic with Aesop, Lu Yu spent the whole night sleeping on the floor in Aesop's room.

Aesop didn't mind at all that there were other people in his room, but because Lu Yu didn't want to sleep on his bed, he simply didn't sleep and followed Lu Yu on the floor.

So a "seventh-level magician" and an elf prince woke up early in the morning and felt that his shoulders, waist, and neck were sore and painful.

After bidding farewell to Aesop, Lu Yu informed Heather of the preparations.

The actors are already in place, and now it’s time to set up the stage.

The work of setting up the stage was done jointly by Heather and Aesop, and Lu Yu, the mastermind behind the scenes, only had to watch.

Returning to his residence in the palace, it was rare for Lu Yu not to cook in person. After all, his stiff neck was really painful, and at the moment he just wanted to be lazy.

While eating the same breakfast as the Grand Palace, Lulutis suddenly knocked on Lu Yu in the chat room.

"It's really not like you this time."

"what do you mean?"

Lu Yu took a sip of milk and felt that the taste was not enough. He added a spoonful of honey to it, took another sip, and then nodded with satisfaction.

"Let Prince Aesop personally serve as bait, not because there is no suitable person who can be used as bait, but because you deliberately want to expand the matter."

"Whether it's the people on Thoresen's side or the hands on Grand's side, as long as they hurt Aesop this time, no matter how much involvement they have, they can't save that person's life. Lu Yu

, you want to squeeze the pustules out of the two kings."

"When you were in Yas, you faced the conflicts and crises in Yas and sat idly by and didn't provide any suggestions. You just gave advice to people you knew... But this time, you are helping two countries solve problems... Why

?”

Lu Yu said: "One can be saved, the other cannot be saved, that's all."

"Lulutis, I am not a cold-blooded animal. I will also be touched by what I see with my eyes. I also want to do something to avoid tragedies within my power."

"The crisis in Yas stems from Yas III and the domestic nobles. They all want more rights. No one can give in. War is inevitable. Even if we have more face, we can make them give up their talk.

?"

"The difference between the Grand Empire and Thoresen is that they both want peace, but some people don't want peace between the two countries. He wants the war to rage all over the sky and the two countries to blow their brains out."

"I can imagine that he must be a person of great status. His views on war are different from that of the cat-faced messenger of justice, the dead little princess, and the second prince. His height determines that he cannot see those dead people.

, no matter how many corpses there are on the front line, it will not affect his overall interests."

"He cannot understand that peace and living are a luxury for ordinary elves and ordinary people. Even if he understands, he will not care, because he only sees the benefits that are about to be obtained."

"If just a little interference can ruin such a person's plan, I would be very honored!"
