Chelinina looked at the sky and said thoughtfully.
"Um."
Orson nodded.
"Umbrella, I have prepared it for you. If you need to use it, please tell me at any time."
"I will."
Orson and Chelinina walked back indoors and were alone for a while before Orson left Lissen Chamber of Commerce.
…
The next day, it was dawn.
Sherlock woke up from bed, got dressed and got ready to go to work at the Sheriff's Office.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the room, she felt something was wrong.
Outside the door, there were at least five strangers.
She knows magic. In order to prevent thieves from intruding, she specially applied detection magic to detect abnormal smells at the door of her residence.
If a person's aura remains within the detection range of magic for a long time, she will be warned when she comes to the door.
At this moment, she noticed the auras of five people at the door.
Faced with this situation, she deliberately stayed cautious and walked out through the secret door leading to the alley.
However, when she walked out of the alley, several guards walked up instantly.
"Miss Sherlock, we suspect that you were bribed by the suspect and deliberately protected the suspect, so please come with us."
"Huh? Being bribed? Who are you? Who sent you here!"
Sherlock knew that he couldn't resist, so he was ready to ask them for their details.
However, the other party didn't say anything and just made a "please" gesture.
Sherlock had no choice but to follow a few people until they walked to a house outside the palace.
At this moment, inside the palace.
Odysseus was still unconscious. After kneeling for a day, Alsace could only return to his residence under the persuasion of his guards.
Before leaving, he informed the guards that he would notify him as soon as the emperor showed signs of regaining consciousness.
Afterwards, he returned to his residence and began to plot secretly.
Alsace was not, as Odysseus said, ignorant of government affairs. On the contrary, it was precisely because he was very interested in politics that he made increasing royal power his most important task after coming to power.
After Odysseus completely gave up his confidence in Alsace and prepared to cultivate Elsa as his heir, Alsace had only one choice.
"Back?"
In the room, Rosalin looked at Alsace.
"Um."
Not long after the last meeting, Rosalind and Alsace formed an alliance. The two became a nominal couple and then lived together.
And the alliance has only one goal.
Arthas became Emperor of the Empire and Rosalind became Empress of the Empire.
"How is His Majesty the Emperor feeling?"
"Nothing serious, just comatose."
As Alsace said this, he took off his coat and sat on the chair.
"but……"
"but?"
Rosalind looked at Arthas in confusion.
"Father, he no longer trusts me. He is planning to let Elsa inherit the throne."
Hearing this, Rosalin was stunned for a moment.
"So, you are going to continue to wait like this until your sister takes away the position that originally belonged to you?"
"...What if? He is my father."
"It's true that he is your father, but Arthas, you are the future emperor."
Rosalin walked up behind Alsace and put her hands on his shoulders.
"I'm not a woman who likes to fail. What happened last time has already brought shame to my family."
"This time, it's a big event related to the future. I don't want to lose again, do you understand?"
"Then what are you going to let me do?"
"At least now, His Majesty the Emperor hasn't given an official order, right?"
Hearing this, Arthas turned his head and looked at Rosalind in shock.
"So, what do you mean?"
Rosalin moved closer to Alsace and whispered in his ear:
"I'm afraid of losing something, especially if it's something I value most."
"So if someone must take it away from me, I will fight with all my strength."
"Now, before everything becomes an established fact, there is still room for maneuver, right?"
Arthas nodded after hearing this.
"I see."
Rosalind then told Arthas what to do. After hearing this, Arthas did not refuse.
But his hands hidden under his sleeves were trembling slightly.
Chapter 46: Breaking up the relationship (5K)
"Phil? Why you?"
Sherlock was taken to a house, followed by the guards to the second floor, and then saw his old acquaintance in the study.
"You go down first."
Phil did not answer Sherlock, but glanced at the guard beside Sherlock.
Hearing this, the latter nodded and then left the room.
After that, Phil looked at Sherlock with a hint of apology in his eyes.
"Charlotte, please sit down first."
She still used a more intimate title to prove her relationship with Sherlock.
"I don't have to sit down."
Sherlock shook his head and looked straight at Phil.
"Tell me, Phil, what happened?"
"To be honest, I don't know very well."
Phil said helplessly.
"You also know, Charlotte, I am working for the royal family. You must not be angry about what I am going to say next."
"Well, you say."
Sherlock was mentally prepared. The worst possible outcome would be to be killed by the royal family. She had been prepared since she took office.
"Someone from the royal family said... you are a friend of Orson and have met with him in private. The investigation results are all forged, and the evidence proving that Orson is not suspected is also false, so they asked me to first Take control of you and prepare to continue the trial of Orson.”
"What?!"
Even though he was prepared, Sherlock was still a little stunned.
"However, they have no evidence to prove that Orson is the prisoner. Do they want to forge evidence and forcibly persecute Orson?"
"Maybe."
Phil shrugged with a wry smile.
"That's how the royal family is. Once someone threatens their rule, they will fight that person to the end, even if the end result is that both sides lose, even if the crime is not actually at all."
"But aren't they afraid that if Osun is moved, forces from other places will counterattack?"
"This is not something I, a working man, can think about."
Phil sighed.
"You can stay here for the next few days. Fortunately, I am watching you, otherwise others would probably use other methods."
"Other means?"
"Well, like torture? Anyway, it won't make you too comfortable."
Phil said this, stood at the window, looked at the crowd outside the window, and sighed.
"However, I guess something will happen to Saint Laurent City soon."
"Before that, just rest here for a while. Although I can't promise to let you out, it's okay to make you live a more comfortable life."
"Thank you..."
Hearing this, Sherlock thanked Phil softly.
…
A few more days have passed, and the students who went out to practice at Imperial College have also completed their experience reports one after another, so Imperial College is preparing to end the semester of this academic year.
As the president of the student union and also a student representative, Orson took the stage to speak as a matter of course.
"As students of Imperial College, we carry the future of Imperial College and the future of the empire. I also ask you to work hard, live up to your time, and climb to the top of the mountains."
After Orson finished his concluding remarks, the audience burst into thunderous applause. He bowed to the audience, and then gave the remaining time to the dean of the academy, Luca.
And just when he stepped off the stage, Tris came to him.
"Oson, news just came from the gate of the academy, saying that the royal guards are waiting at the gate of the academy, preparing to take you for investigation."
When Orson heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Me? Haven't I already completed the investigation?"
"So I think the situation this time should not be simple. At least, it may be more dangerous than the last time I took you away. What should I say? If you are ready to shirk, I will deal with them."
"No need."
Orson shook his head and rejected Tris's kindness.
"Teacher Tris, I accept your wishes, but this is my business. If they really want to target me, then I shouldn't involve you. In short... I have my own way. Trust me."
"..." Tris was silent for a while after hearing this, and then nodded.
"Okay, then I believe you, but at least let me accompany you out of school."
Saying this, she took the initiative to walk ahead of Orson.
"OK."
Arriving at the entrance of Imperial College, as expected, a group of guards were already waiting quietly at the door.
The moment Orson stepped out of the school gate, the guards came up.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Orson, someone has accused you of colluding with the security station staff to clear your criminal suspicion, so we have to ask you to go back and continue the investigation."
"Well, of course." Orson smiled and nodded, then turned back and waved to Tris.
"Teacher Tris, say hello to Li Te for me."
"Um."
Later, Orson was taken back to the police station.
This time, Owen was the only one who greeted Orson at the door of the police station.
Orson immediately understood how the so-called "crimes" were woven together.
