"Miss Judith, did you take the items that should have belonged to the two dead magicians?"

Yes, it wasn't a frivolous inheritance case that Father Pound dismissed the others.

Judy shivered: "Father, I took it, please punish me!"

"Where is it, Miss Judith?"

Judy raised her tear-filled eyes and looked at Mr. Leroy on the bed.

"Huh?" Father Pound uttered a questioning syllable.

Judy stretched out her hand tremblingly, trying to reach for the pocket watch in Mr. Leroy's hand, but as soon as she touched Mr. Leroy's stiff and cold hand, she couldn't help but let out a short scream.

Finally, she broke down in tears and said to Father Pound: "It's that pocket watch, Father, I dare not touch it, please come and get it yourself..."

Father Pound walked towards Leroy's body, picked up the pocket watch from his hand, and checked it. It was indeed a magic item engraved with space magic.

"Is there anything you want to explain, Miss Judith?"

Father Pound's voice was a mixture of majesty and kindness. To a desperate person like Judy, it should be like driftwood in the water.

"Father, Mr. Priest... I don't know how it came to this... When Stoney and I returned to Cole County, we just wanted to find the magician hidden in the dark through the communication at home. .”

"But my father suddenly asked me in private yesterday if I was on a mission."

"I'm sorry, I know that the internal situation of Xingxi Academy should be kept secret from outsiders. Father, please punish me severely. I am willing to accept anything. Only God's punishment can make me feel at ease when I am crazy."

"I was too urgent at the time. As you may know, I have always been the child who was not valued very much in my family. I always longed for my father's affirmation, so when my father asked me what task I was going to perform, my head became hot for a moment. I told him when I didn't respond..."

"After listening to my statement, my father asked me to steal the space props used by the magician to him after the mission."

"I explained to him for a long time that all the magic items seized in the mission must be handed over to the Holy See, and I can't take them privately, but my father said that he will only use them for a while, and I can't refuse this request. It was the first time my father had placed such high expectations on me..."

"And I thought, it's just one night, nothing will happen... But... But... I didn't expect... My God, how could this be..."

At this point, Judy was in tears, but still said the ending of the story with difficulty: "After I stole this pocket watch and gave it to my father, he asked me to tell him how to use it. I dare not, I really don't want to use it." Dare to tell him that this will send him to the gallows! I didn't expect that he would start this pocket watch indiscriminately because of his anger... Then the space magic worked on himself..."

Father Pound touched his chin.

He has always known that the weakness of most Xingxi Academy students is their family members, or their parents. Most of the students who will be sent to Xingxi Academy are not taken seriously at home. Half of these children resent their parents, and the other half are more urgent. eager for parental attention.

Of course, he also knew that these students might have problems, but the Holy See didn't have so many choices, relatively speaking, they were already a good choice.

As for this Miss Judith, tsk, this character is not suitable for staying in Xingxi Academy. She is too weak to her parents, so weak that she will reveal her secrets... just right, isn't she supposed to inherit the Liroy family?

Thinking of this, Father Pound softened his expression, and patted Judy on the shoulder: "Son, God will forgive you."

"Perhaps you should stop calling Mr. Leroy 'Father,' though?"

Judy's face turned pale: "You, do you also think that I killed my father?"

"No, I just think that maybe you have identified a thief as your father, and the Holy See will thoroughly investigate this matter, but if you are really the daughter of Mr. Leroy's brother, then you must come back to inherit the family, and you may have to quit Xingxi for this. Academy, never mention a single word about Xingxi Academy from now on, are you willing?"

A look of bewilderment appeared on Judy's face.

Father Pound didn't force a teenage girl to make such a big decision right away, he patted her on the shoulder: "Think about it carefully, I'll deal with the rest with the rest of your team first."

With a "squeak", the heavy wooden door opened again, and Riemann and the others looked at Father Pound, who had an extra pocket watch in his hand.

Riemann's expression changed, he still remembered that the pocket watch should have been in the hands of the dead Mr. Roy.

For the rest of the day, Cole County, a place where nothing much happened, was transformed almost dramatically.

First, the second daughter of the Dubis family is actually a magician!

Then the eldest son of the Dubis family actually killed his relatives righteously in order to eliminate the magician!

Then it was a metropolitan who came to deal with the above miraculous events!

For some reason, the youngest daughter of the Fryer family was lucky enough to be met by the Metropolitan, and he thought she was suitable to serve the God of Light, and she was about to go to the monastery in the imperial city!

Of course, the biggest event is the change of dynasty in the Liroy family——

It is a...not-so-secret secret in Cole County that the current Leroy raised his elder brother's daughter as his own daughter and inherited the Leroy family.

But I didn't expect that the incumbent Liroy died suddenly, and the metropolitan came to visit again. This old matter was overturned in this way, and Judith Liroy was lucky to get back her family property.

This is really... er, unpredictable?

Judith Liroy came back to inherit the family property, and chose a sister from the family to go to Xingxi Academy to study instead of her, so this child is really kind.

There were five people in Stoney's team when they came, but there were four when they went back.

Except for Riemann who joined in halfway, everyone else has been with Judy for a long time. Considering that they were mostly neglected before entering Xingxi Academy, their partners after entering Xingxi Academy are more like Judy. real family.

And now...one of the family members just...abandoned them and returned to the real world, which made Stony and the others somewhat complicated.

Riemann followed Father Pound to deal with all the sevens and eights, and when he returned to the teleportation array of the church, he saw Stony looking out the window blankly.

Hosea and Moore were also a little unhappy. Hosea stood leaning against the wall, playing with the cat entrusted to him by Riemann for a while, with his head down, unable to see clearly.

Moore sat on the window sill, dangling his feet unconsciously, staring blankly out of the window.

"Cough." Riemann coughed lightly, "I'm back."

All three turned to look at him.

"Well... let's go back to the academy." Stony took a deep breath and said.

The light of the teleportation array engulfed them and gradually faded away. When their eyes were able to touch the outside world again, Cole County had become a page in their past missions, and Judy, who had made her own choice, also entered the in mere memory.

When Stony was about to leave in a daze, she suddenly turned around and called Riemann as if she had just remembered something.

"Riemann!"

"What's the matter, Stoney?"

"It's nothing, I just want to say, if you want to form a team next month, come to me."

Riemann:?

He was a little confused, he thought that he had... entered into the regular team of Stony and the others, what is this, he just passed the assessment?

One question mark after another appeared in his mind, but Stoney had already left, and he didn't know how to answer this sentence.

"Ah, I only asked you to do tasks?" Or "Okay."

Riemann went to the library with his head full of fog. He has two things to do today.

The first thing is to take a good look around the library when you have time, and collect all the magic books that can be collected.

The second thing is that he has to study how people at that time flattered the God of Light when writing books. This will account for the bulk of the heliocentric theory he will release in the future.

After browsing the bookcases on one wall, Riemann couldn't help feeling that there are so many magic books in the Academy of Magic—this is like nonsense, but for the first time, Riemann really felt the joy of touching one and including it in the system .

Relying on pretending that he was browsing books, Riemann collected a wall first. In order to avoid looking too strange and conspicuous, he planned to collect the remaining books next time.

More importantly, he found a guide-level book on flattering the God of Light.

This book is called "Why Gods Are Gods". You can tell from the catalog page inside that this is a book dedicated to blowing up the God of Light in all directions without dead ends. Riemann plans to go back and study it carefully.

"Name?"

"Riemann."

"Borrowing books..."Why Gods Are Gods"...Okay, you will be deducted 2 contribution points, remember to return it within fifteen days, otherwise the fee will be deducted at the rate of one contribution point per day."

"Okay, thanks for the reminder."

Riemann put away the book and walked towards the dormitory.

He lit the fireplace, knocked on the plate, and a piece of cake and a cup of hot black tea obediently appeared on the clean silver plate.

Finally, he took a blanket from the bed and put it on the armchair.

The armchair is very soft, and there is an illusion of being trapped in the clouds when sitting on it. Riemann usually likes to read and write on this chair, and it is the same today, and he does not need to write today, so he waved his hand to let the desk in front of the chair move away , leaving only a small round table for tea and refreshments.

Although Xingxi College is in the south of Sydney, even in winter, the temperature is not low, but they built the dormitory building in a place where there is no light, and it is dark and cool all the year round. But for Riemann, this is a good thing, he likes Read and write papers in this "winter atmosphere".

Having prepared all this, Riemann sank himself into the chair, covered the blanket, picked up the newly borrowed "Why God Is God", and turned to the first chapter.

The aroma of warmth and desserts floated in the air, and Riemann woke up again, and it was time for the class schedule at the bedside to shout "Get up".

He moved his stiff neck and was confused for a moment before realizing that he had slept on the chair all night.

The tea and refreshments in hand were already cold, and he looked down at his hands.

"Why God Is God", Chapter [-], p.

Riemann: ...

The memory of last night gradually returned to his mind. He just opened the first page of this book, planning to study how other people flattered the God of Light while writing the book, but he only read half a page. , the drowsiness hits uncontrollably...

Riemann: ...

never mind.He sighed.

Struggling again tonight, if it doesn’t work, make it up yourself.
