Chapter 246 'Morning Crow Tantra'

 After Aiwass was promoted, he didn’t even have time to ask Sherlock if his promotion was going well...

As a result, Sherlock came to the door himself to confirm whether Aiwass and Isabel had been successfully promoted.

The only problem is that he did not go to the Palace of Silver and Tin, but to the Royal University of Law.

He stood majestically at the school gate to intercept Aiwass, and at the same time accepted interviews from four newspapers that rushed over within half an hour.

The famous detective Mr. Sherlock, who had been publicly buried, was resurrected in a dignified manner - without even thinking about it, he knew that it would definitely make the front page. No matter what the original headline was, it would be snatched away.

Detective Sherlock is resurrected!

Sherlock's reputation in Avalon is very high.

It is different from Aiwass' role as a hero who has repeatedly eradicated evil, purified demons, protected civilians, and healed the wounded.

He is worshiped because he is a symbol.

"Sherlock" represents a possibility: even if you do not enter the Supervisory Bureau, Supervisory Council, or Law Court, even if you are a civilian who does not hold any power or wealth in your hands - as long as an individual has outstanding talents, even the Supervisory Director must treat him

Show respect and even get a reception from the Queen.

Because Avalon needs Sherlock.

Although everyone knows that Shylock is a member of the Hermes family, his brother has always kept a low profile. Even not everyone in the Round Table Hall knows his name. He is almost invisible, and he is almost invisible in any political struggle.

, tabloids, and public speeches. Although he went to all the banquets that he should go to, he also had no sense of presence at the banquets.

Therefore, people's impression of the Hermes family still remains at the level that Shylock's father caused a big trouble and resigned.

——Look, a retired official who caused the assassination of a member of the royal family due to work mistakes, his descendants can also be received and respected by the Queen because of their outstanding personal abilities!

As a result, Shylock, who was born in the Hermes family, became the common people's idol in Avalon.

In an interview, Sherlock told reporters in detail who he was assassinated by, why he hid his identity and faked his death, and later designed a layout with his best friend Aiwass Moriarty - and finally succeeded in identifying the Minister of Trade.

Drost's spy evidence.

In fact, many people know that the Minister of Trade was investigated and imprisoned for espionage.

However, most people don't know the specific crime he committed. Many people even think that this is just a political struggle among the upper echelons of Avalon... because Minister Drost's reputation among the people is actually quite good.

He is an old man who is very approachable and has strong business ability. As the Minister of Trade, he is often interviewed by reporters and has repeatedly explained the benefits of various economic policies to civilians in simple and easy-to-understand terms.

That is to say, because the queen's reputation is higher, she can suppress her.

But now, Sherlock revealed this matter without hesitation.

His angle is also very simple——

"The person who tried to assassinate me is closely related to Drost."

Sherlock said very seriously: "He has a close relationship with the Noble Red Society and has hired murderers many times. I have found a lot of definite evidence and will send it to the Glass Steps Newspaper for publicity soon."

Droste has a good relationship with Vice President Boca. Vice President Boca's subordinate is Lawyer York, and Lawyer York is the person who assassinated Sherlock. Even the explosives he used were smuggled in through the channels provided by Droste.

; Sherlock was assassinated by York lawyer because of investigating the smuggling case.

From this perspective, there is absolutely no problem for Shylock to say that the person who ordered his assassination was Minister Drost.

"At the same time, in the name of protecting Avalon's industry, he raised tariffs on alchemical products three times within a year. However, he himself took the opportunity to smuggle these alchemical products - according to the evidence I have determined, he was at least in the Lloyd District

Controlled 14 trading companies and more than 60 warehouses.

"Last year alone, his single-person trade volume reached 170% of Avalon's imported alchemy products from Iris and the Theocracy. It can be said that there are basically no alchemy shops in Avalon that 'do not sell smuggled goods', because

He has already seized an absolute advantage in the supply of goods.

"Just today, a cargo ship from Star Antimony will arrive at the port. It will be full of alchemical raw materials. The name of the cargo owner is also - Charles Drost. Please stay tuned."

This is information from Aiwass.

Before being arrested, Minister Drost had already sent the deposit to the "King". According to the return time of the freighter, today is almost the day that the shipment will arrive.

Because Minister Drost has absolute control over the port, his smuggling methods are very simple - even simple to the point of being crude.

He would send a large number of merchant ships from Lloyd's, loaded with seafood or cheap wine, and then head to their destination.

After arriving, the source of goods at the other end will take out the goods from these wooden barrels. Then put the goods that need to be transported into them, and then send the goods back on the pretext of sending the wrong goods, and park them directly at the port.

Shipping area. So Drost sent someone to exchange the real goods in, and the second time they were sent to the real owner of the goods.

For ordinary people, this would definitely not work. But no one would check out Drost's goods.

By this time, Aiwass had arrived and listened around for a while.

Although Lily has been able to completely contain the Shadow Demon without causing leakage... But Aiwass can't suddenly stand up from the wheelchair. Although there are many people who know Aiwass's secret, at least he still has to be polite.

One thing, don't be too direct.

This holiday is a good excuse.

At this time, Aiwass directly asked Lily to push the wheelchair into the crowd: "In addition, Minister Drost has hired murderers many times, some of which were businessmen who did not give him face, and some of whom were his

Political opponents.

"There are also some who have no reason, including even the mother of his child. Just because she gave birth to an illegitimate daughter for him, he planned to assassinate both her mother and daughter."

"Do you have any evidence?"

Tuo, who didn't know who was placed in the crowd, suddenly asked.

Aiwass said with certainty: "Of course, because I am the witness to this matter——"

Saying that, Aiwass reached out and pulled Lily behind him.

"My friend, my personal maid, the sister who took care of me since I was a child...Lily Drost was the victim of his assassination. It was precisely because of this incident that Sherlock and I caught

He hit his heels.

"——And before that, her mother was the victim!"

Aiwass does not intend to explain too complex political and economic issues to reporters.

It is too difficult to explain many of the bills signed by Drost. These reporters themselves are not professional. If they are asked to translate for a second time, the final content transmitted to readers' ears will inevitably be imprecise.

So Aiwass had a different idea from Sherlock - he chose to directly attack Drost himself.

"We still don't know how much information the former trade secretary sold and how deeply he betrayed us.

"But according to my investigation, the former minister now has four manors of his own in Star Antimony, as well as a viscounty. He became a genuine Star Antimony noble and established the 'Droste Manor'..."

——This is indeed what they investigated and it was not made up by Aiwass.

Although Minister Drost is dead, his son and daughter are now being investigated by the Inspectorate. And the information in Aiwass' hands is fresh and hot. He just arrived at the Palace of Silver and Tin this morning. Even the Round Table Hall is still there.

have no idea.

"OK OK!"

At this moment, a young woman wearing a red bishop's robe, with curly hair tied up in a ponytail, smiled and clapped her hands and walked over: "There is a final exam today. If there is no problem with the interview, come here first! Let the children go first.

Let’s go in and take the exam——”

Ms. Meia dispersed the crowd and walked to Aiwass with a calm smile on her face.

After everyone around her left, her expression changed slightly, and she lowered her head nervously: "How come you were promoted again so quickly?"

"Wouldn't it be better to hurry up?"

Aiwass asked rhetorically.

Meia had a headache: "I was just procrastinating...but this time I can't give it to you immediately. Your promotion is too fast. This tantra book must be mastered before the third level. Once it exceeds

There are too many levels to understand.

"After my class exam is over today, you will come home with me. I will lend you the Morning Crow Tantra - this is the reward we agreed on before, and I have not forgotten it."

Aiwass tilted his head slightly, his eyes a little confused.

...You haven’t forgotten, but I have.

When did this happen?

On the other side, a middle-aged man with messy hair was standing on the boat, looking expectantly at the approaching sea level in the distance.

The order was so big that he was a little worried about handing the goods over to them directly.

For this big business, the big customer... the "King" decided to come and deliver the goods himself.

update completed!

I was super, just as I was typing, Nuanyangju suddenly gave me an Apple 15!

Woohoo, I didn’t miss it because of Golden Jasmine’s notifications. Thank you Jasmine!
