Chapter 86 Aiwass with a Thousand Faces

 Aiwas quickly adapted to campus life at Wangli Law University.

It is now Thursday afternoon.

It has been two days since Aiwass appeared in the Glass Steps newspaper for the second time.

The situation was completely different from the last time at the Pelican Bar - that time, although Aiwass was in the newspaper, not many people in school knew about him.

Because there are basically not many students who buy expensive and serious newspapers like "Glass Steps Newspaper".

The content in the "Glass Steps Newspaper" is too serious, and most of the news is very brief - for example, the death of a big figure, personnel changes at the top of a certain department, a certain industry is thriving or encountering a crisis, laws and regulations

How taxes have been adjusted, explanations of key policies for this year or next year, and important events happening in other countries.

There is no gossip and fun, nor are there serial novels, short poems and jokes, or interesting advertisements that often appear in other newspapers and periodicals. Even the details of many news are incomplete, and many major events only have a short sentence.

The words that appear most frequently in the "Glass Steps Newspaper" are all kinds of "personal names" - and for students, they basically don't recognize most of the names, and it just makes their heads hurt when they look at them. The only thing

The most interesting thing is probably Master Yanis’s “magic paintings”.

Therefore, ordinary students will not buy this kind of thing at all. It has nothing to do with intelligence or knowledge... If someone suddenly buys the "Glass Steps Newspaper", then he is probably not doing it for the knowledge or information on it, because they can't understand it.

This is either a parent's request, or it's just to show off and pretend that you can understand.

At that time, to the students at Wangli Law University, Aiwass was just a "strange young man who suddenly appeared on the front page of the Glass Steps Newspaper" and was a "child of another family" that they were hostile to.

.

After all, both the Pelican Bar and the Demonologist are far away from the students living in the Red Queen.

But the murder that occurred at the White Shoes Club on Monday afternoon and the killer who intended to murder Princess Isabel was different.

This is what happened around them, and many students even witnessed that scene with their own eyes.

Secretary Rafe fell from the second floor and landed at their feet, and died of poison in front of the students; a steady stream of supervisors and inspectors came from all over the city, lining up at the entrance of the club; people wearing silver armor and dragon head helmets

The air cavalry rode tall and majestic white griffons flying at high speed in the sky...

——If Avalon goes to war one day, it will probably be like this! The students thought excitedly.

Completely opposite to the Round Table Hall and the Hall of Silver and Tin, which generally tend to be conservative, the students are very enthusiastic about the war. Their continuous cycle of daily life is too comfortable and boring, and the students are eager to find something

Exciting stuff.

And right now this is exciting enough.

The beautiful female killer emerged from the shadow of Her Royal Highness, and an old knight wearing armor and holding a two-handed giant sword chased her. The two fought fiercely on the streets, and every road in the city was blocked by legal magic.

The air cavalry continued to attack, crackling lightning strikes and hurricanes as sharp as blades swept through the streets, and the rolling thunder that could be heard from the edge of the glass island was constantly heard from the clouds.

The old knight chased her from the Red Queen to the White Queen, and then from the White Queen to Lloyd. The amount of movement he could unleash was very limited, and he almost lost her after two streets away——

But fortunately, there are still gryphon knights in the sky, and Director Gordon also summoned his own gryphon.

But after they arrived in heaven, it became even harder to track them.

The clue they can see is "the shadow flashing across the ground even though there is no obstruction on the ground." As the distance increases, it becomes more difficult to identify.

Not to mention, the streets of Glass Island are so narrow that it’s really hard to follow.

Among the residents of the Red and White Queen District are a large number of knight families, priests, elves, wealthy businessmen, scholars and officials. There are also some distinguished guests traveling from foreign countries.

The cunning killer also took them all the way through churches, museums, art galleries, government buildings, courts, orphanages, schools, hospitals, research institutes... Her route was not even a straight line, but deliberately went around these places.

Dive into the crowd and guide the knights to attack them.

But none of these old knights are hot-blooded and reckless warriors. They can enter the Round Table Hall, and they are generally over forty years old. They have passed that reckless age, and all of them are very calm.

——If they take action forcefully, I don’t know if high-level killers who are adapted to the road will be fine, but passers-by will definitely die. And they will die piece by piece.

It's better to let the killer go!

After all, the killer only assassinated the lowest-level affairs officer. Although she once escaped into the shadow of Her Highness the Princess... she did not really assassinate a member of the royal family after all.

The killer obviously knew what they were afraid of, so he deliberately led them in circles. Relying on his extremely skilled clone, stealth and vision deception techniques, the people from the Supervision Bureau chased them before it got dark. The only way to confirm

Yes, that is, the target entered Lloyd's Zone before disappearing.

——The weight of Lloyd's District and the Red and White Queen's District are different.

As a result, the Lloyd District was completely sealed off. The port was temporarily suspended, and even the navy, which was resting on the shore, was alerted for a time. Six inspection brigades mixed with a large number of inspectors went through the Lloyd District street by street.

The sweep continued until dawn, but in the end the killer was still not caught.

The Supervisory Bureau simply pretended that they were not chasing assassins, but rectifying the security of the royal capital - so they successfully took down the gathering dens of thirteen illegal organizations and arrested more than 400 people involved. It was quite effective.

It’s a big event on the card.

Anyway, you have come, you can’t go back empty-handed.

In the eyes of the people who did not know about this incident, this was regarded as a special operation carried out by the Supervisory Bureau. But for a few people who knew the inside story, the Supervisory Bureau even became a joke.

The Supervisory Bureau, which was almost fully mobilized, could not catch a single person. Compared with the matter of "not catching the killer", the Supervisory Bureau's overly serious attitude was more likely to attract ridicule.

But on the contrary, Director Gordon, who was the first to catch up, was not only not punished, but was actually rewarded.

Because what he did in the first place was completely correct: instead of launching a powerful attack on the assassin, he pushed him away from the princess first.

Even though such a push helped the other party escape safely, Gordon's primary purpose had been achieved. That was to protect Princess Isabel.

——The same thing is said, if the killer is released, then it will only be the personal secretary of a minister who dies. But if the killer is trapped in the club, and she kills everyone, there is no telling how many students will be killed or injured.

Compared with their safety, letting a prisoner go is a more acceptable consequence.

Of course, his commendation will not be issued immediately. But Aiwass heard from Isabel that Director Gordon will be transferred to the Inspectorate to serve as the senior inspector responsible for managing and supervising the discipline of all regional inspection bureaus on Glass Island.

From director to senior inspector, it looks like he has dropped half a level. But in fact, he has been promoted one and a half levels - and he can even continue to manage his previous department.

Compared with the Supervisory Bureau, which caused a big stir that everyone in the city knew about, Aiwass, who was sitting motionless in a wheelchair, seemed even more powerful. After all, anyone could see that Aiwass's shot had caused a lot of damage to her.

How much damage was caused? To exaggerate, maybe the damage caused by Aiwass was all the damage.

The students who witnessed the "big event" with their own eyes were extremely excited and even boasted about it to other students who had not seen the scene.

Because there were too many students present at the time, no one really saw the whole thing clearly - at least 80% of them didn't notice that there was a thin knife the size of a pinky stuck in Secretary Raf's back;

The only people who called out to Director Gordon were those around him.

Although Aiwass was highly praised in the newspapers, Aiwass also used the mysticism of "I won't tell, you guess for yourselves" when he was interviewed.

Because of this, they relied on their own imagination and understanding to try to complete this seemingly happy event.

When the students could only guess on their own, almost everyone told slightly different stories. And the people who heard the stories felt they had to share them with others. So they went to find someone to tell the story for a second round.

, relying on my own memory to add some extra details...

——By permutation and combination, during lunch break the next day, there were more than 70 versions of the story.

During lunch, almost every table in the canteen was telling this story. And the stories on each table were different, as if they all came from different timelines.

There are versions like "Aiwass is the ex-boyfriend of the female assassin" and "the assassin is Aiwass's stepmother" that sound more normal; there are also versions like "Aiwass is the secret guard of Her Royal Highness the Princess", "Aiwass is the stepmother of Aiwass".

He is a prophet" is a somewhat subtle speculation.

In the end, there were even stories with legendary plots and ups and downs such as "the assassin's target is actually Queen Sofia", "the assassin is the revengeful princess of the previous dynasty", and "the assassin is a demon in human form".

Nowadays, it seems that some students are planning to use Aiwass as the protagonist to create a second creation...

Now Aiwass has truly become a celebrity.

As he originally planned, he won the kindness and recognition of his classmates, but the way was different from what he thought.

Today, he has become an urban legend with a thousand faces. Aiwass believes that even if a professional spy comes to the university to inquire about himself, he will probably be fooled.

How come everyone can give different answers?

Is Aiwass so mysterious?

In the end, Aiwass gained fame, Director Gordon got a promotion, the students present got something to talk about, and the students not present got fun.

Although other departments were verbally criticized, no one actually accepted the punishment - the knights' previous judgment of the matter was completely correct. The assassin was not really planning to assassinate Her Royal Highness after all, so Her Majesty the Queen would not have any objection to the slippery and difficult-to-catch killer.

Too strong a perseverance.

Although they made a lot of noise, they caused the largest amount of damage in this incident, which was probably the destruction of some building walls in Lloyd District. These losses can be included in the "thirteen illegal

There is even a lot of redundancy in the operational funds of the "organization".

The only two people who felt sad were probably Aiden and Isabel.

Isabel was simply sad because she couldn't go to the White Shoes Club.

In this incident, the White Dance Shoes Club was temporarily closed down.

Although Isabel heard what Allen said, she would definitely unblock her. But after more than two months of enrollment, she finally joined the first student organization. As a result, she didn’t have time to make friends or even say a word to strangers. The organization

It's closed.

Aiden was extremely unlucky.

As a student who had been in contact with the assassin, he was transferred to the Supervisory Bureau for two special interrogations. Even the copy of "Dracula" was taken away.

Even during normal classes, Aiden didn't really listen much; but after missing two classes at once, he missed class again.

Mainly because Aiden felt a little anxious: Now that the final exam is coming, how can I make up for the classes I missed?

"——Can't you just come two weeks later?!" He complained.

That way, if I don't do well in the exam this semester, I can blame you directly when I get home!

It's almost a month before the final exam, and it's extremely uncomfortable to have no clue what's going on.

What makes Aiden even more sad is that his budding first love ended before it even started.

The "mysterious lady in the white dress who may have a crush on him" turned out to be a cruel and evil woman - which shocked him greatly.

Aiwass just smiled and said nothing when he heard his complaints.

It's okay, brother. Calm down...

——Sooner or later, you will get used to it.
