My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

After leaving the police station, under the watchful eyes of two guards behind him, Orson stopped a carriage and headed towards the Imperial Academy.

"Alas, when will this day end?" In the dormitory, Litt sat in the living room, looking up at the chandelier on the roof, bored.

"Orson is not coming back, Lena is going to go home again, and Lianka and Olivia are also going to go back."

When Litt thought that Orson was still in prison, he was furious.

"Really, Orson has made so many contributions to the empire, but they don't show any mercy at all. It's impossible to think that Orson would do something like assassinating the duke, not to mention the assassination of the emperor later."

At this time, there was a sound of turning the doorknob at the door.

"Who is it? Orson is not at home now. If you want to find him, come back in a few days."

It seems that Litt has become accustomed to the frequent classmates coming to Orson these days, and he is ready to drive people away without looking up.

Then she suddenly thought that those who want to see Orson will not push the door directly in.

So, she raised her head.

As expected, Orson was standing at the door at this moment. He hung his coat on the hanger and then noticed Lit's gaze.

"Hey, Lit, I'm back."

Lit didn't say anything. She put down the book in her hand, stood up silently, and slowly approached Orson.

Then, when she was less than five meters away from Orson, she used a brutal collision.

"Puff, hey! Lit, I know you miss me a lot these days, but there's no need to do this."

However, Lit didn't care about these. She hugged Orson tightly, as if she wanted to weld herself and Orson together.

Then, Orson felt Lit's body trembling slightly in his arms.

"Lit?"

Orson asked in confusion.

He had only been away for a while, why did he feel that Lit's performance at this moment was particularly like a...

puppy?

The kind of puppy that excitedly wagged its tail and pounced on its owner after work.

"Great... Great."

Lit repeated these three words.

"What's so good?"

"Orson, they let you go, right?"

"Yeah."

"Does that mean you're not a bad person? They really wronged you."

"...I guess so."

Orson nodded and answered.

Unexpectedly, after saying that, Lit buried his head in his chest again.

Seeing this, Orson patted Lit's back helplessly.

It seemed that she was the one who least wanted to be bad.

"Okay, okay, I'm fine, Lit, they framed me, how could I do that?"

He comforted Lit softly.

It seemed that he was comforting others.

Chapter 44: Filial Piety

"Arthas, I told you."

In the palace, Odysseus looked at Arthas in front of him. Today, he was actually angry with his son.

At this moment, he held a list in his hand.

"If you can't control your own men, then disband them all. They will only make food expensive if they live in this world!"

Arthas lowered his head and remained silent.

The results of the investigation during this period were very unsatisfactory, and there was even a possibility that the boomerang would hit Arthas.

He had given the police station the maximum support, and even destroyed the relationship between him and Lucius for this.

But the result was that nothing was found.

Orson's suspicion was cleared, and the other breakthroughs and suspects in the case were either missing or dead, and there was no way to start.

If the investigation continued, the only way to hastily pin the blame on Giovanni and Raven was to blame them.

And Odysseus rebuked Arthas for a different reason.

According to the investigation of Francois's missing servant, Odysseus found that just a few months ago, Arthas's men had had contact with the servant.

"Arthas, tell the truth."

Odysseus looked at Arthas, his eyes no longer had the usual kindness, but were full of confusion and doubt.

"In your heart, the throne is so important that it is worth it for you to frame your sister for it?"

"Father, why do you say that?"

When Arthas heard this, he seemed to be stabbed in the sore spot, and suddenly raised his head to look at his father.

"Do you think I don't know anything about what you did behind your back? Arthas, your father is an emperor no matter what."

"You want to intensify the conflict and frame Elsa. You put a forged bill in her servant's house. The content on it is for the Orchid Tavern, right?"

"The background check of the person who assassinated me showed that he was your old subordinate in the army, wasn't he?!"

"Father...you are..."

"Do you think Elsa is so stupid!?"

"Arthas, I am extremely disappointed in you. I will give you a month to deal with the affairs in the army. Starting next month, you only need to be responsible for the affairs of the Knights. The rest, leave it to your sister."

Odysseus' words pierced Arthas' chest like a bolt from the blue. He looked at his father in disbelief, his lips trembling.

After a long while, he mustered up his courage and said, "Father, I know you look down on me and think that I am just a warrior and that my methods are biased."

"But if I don't do this, will you give me the throne?!"

Alsace questioned.

"Before Francois was assassinated! I was the heir to the empire, Elsa was still in school, and had no real power. Everyone knew that I would definitely be the next emperor of the empire."

"But why! You clearly know that the matter of the family emblem was clearly framed on me, but why do you still think it's my fault? Someone is obviously framing me in secret and trying to support Elsa to the throne. Can't you see it?"

"Then go find the person who framed you in secret!"

Odysseus also shouted angrily.

"Didn't I give you a chance to prove your innocence? You arrested Orson and dug up Mrs. Lucius's grave. Aren't these opportunities enough? What did you take out?"

Hearing this, Alsace clenched his fists, and then looked at Lucius with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Father, you are not on Elsa's side, are you?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Think about it carefully, you seem to be really partial to Elsa. After all, she hasn't graduated from the academy yet, and you gave her so much power. This is not in line with the rules of the past generations."

"Because I have seen through you, you are an absolute waste. If you sit on the throne of the empire, it will only make the empire more chaotic."

Odysseus said coldly.

"So, in your heart, it doesn't matter who is on the throne between me and Elsa, but who can stabilize the situation in the empire is more important, right?"

"In your eyes, father, we are just alternatives for your heirs, and there is no family affection, right?"

"You..."

Odysseus watched Arthas's emotions gradually collapse, and pointed at Arthas angrily.

However, the next second, a sense of powerlessness used Odysseus's heart, his eyes went black, and his body fell backwards instantly.

Arthas was also shocked when he saw the scene in front of him.

"Someone, come! Father has fainted!"

In the palace, Arthas's heart-wrenching voice came.

...

When Elsa hurried back to the palace from the police station, Odysseus had been carried to the bed.

The court physician's diagnosis was that he was in a coma due to excessive stress. No one knew when he would wake up and whether there would be any sequelae.

Elsa walked into the bedroom and immediately saw Arthas kneeling beside Odysseus.

She came to her brother and then asked anxiously: "Brother, what's going on with father?"

"Today, my father and I were discussing the progress of the case. When he heard the news that the key witness was missing, my father was a little angry. I comforted him a few words, but it didn't work..."

"Really?"

Elsa asked doubtfully.

But soon, he saw Arthas turned his head and looked at him.

At this time, Arthas' eyes were red and swollen, and his pupils shrank slightly. The expression on his face looked very creepy.

"Elsa, even you don't trust me, your brother?"

"No... no." Seeing this, Elsa hurriedly shook her head.

"It's just that my father is seriously ill in bed, so I subconsciously asked..."

"Now I'm back, you can take a rest, brother."

"No." Arthas shook his head. "I want to stay with my father, and I still have a lot to tell him."

Seeing this scene, although Elsa had some doubts in her heart, she still said worriedly: "Forget it, brother, you go back and have a good rest first. When my father wakes up, I will definitely come to inform you, how about it?"

"..." Arthas stopped talking.

Looking at Arthas's actions, Elsa was also very helpless. She came to the door and asked one of the guards.

"When the accident happened today, was it only my brother who was with my father?"

"Yes." A guard said with certainty.

"How long has my brother been kneeling in front of my father?"

"About... three hours."

"..." Elsa heard this and said nothing, and went straight back to the room.

Looking at her brother, she followed suit and knelt beside him.

Arthas heard the noise next to him and turned his head to look at Elsa, but he did not stop her.

"If you can't stand it, don't do it."

He gave Elsa a piece of advice, and then continued to guard in front of Odysseus.

Seeing this, Elsa said nothing more.

A black cat lay on the wall outside the palace, feeling the sky getting dark, it yawned, then arched its back to stretch its muscles, and then jumped off the wall.

On the other side, Orson came to the Saint Laurent City headquarters of the Lison Chamber of Commerce alone.

A merger ceremony will be held here today.

The business war of Cherlinina has finally come to an end.

The Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce is about to withdraw from the stage of the empire and be completely incorporated into the Lison Chamber of Commerce.

Chapter 45: Things that must be done

The first floor of the Lison Chamber of Commerce has now been used as a banquet venue.
