[The Chronicles of Narnia] Sin

"Cair Paravel will not condone any intruders and detain them until the four monarchs send them down."

Edith and Saknur stared angrily at the Lord of Dorn Island in front of them.Never before had anyone in Narnia dared to wrong the decorated Bloodmoon Knight and Executor Compass like this.

"I am a knight handed down by the Supreme King. You have no right to touch a single hair of my hair." The werewolf boy stared coldly at him with red eyes. "Whether you are a Lord or a Duke, you cannot limit our freedom on behalf of him."

"Do you know this knight?" Taro raised his jaw and asked the two goat soldiers.

"The subordinates have heard of the 'Blood Moon Knight'...but don't know what he looks like."

After hearing this, Taylor turned to stare at the two in silence, with a faint winner's smile on his face.

Edith felt that the situation at this moment was already chaotic enough - due to the limited nature of their work, they rarely showed their faces in the castle; this time, no convincing evidence was found, so there was no way to refute it.But she didn't expect that another person appeared behind them, with a teasing tone: "——are you having a midnight party?"

"Your Majesty the Justice King!" Everyone was shocked and saluted him in unison.

"I suspect that I just misread the clock," Edmund said lightly, "Isn't it one o'clock in the morning?"

The cold and sharp atmosphere just now eased a little because of his arrival, and Taylor's arrogance suddenly languished. "King Edmund," he said, "I suffered from insomnia tonight, wandering around the castle, and came here to try to resolve the issue when I heard disputes here."

"Thank you for your kindness," the Justice King said elegantly but forcefully, "but I don't think you need to intervene in the internal management of Cair Paravel."

According to Taylor's usual personality, at this moment he must be patient and give in, but this time he insisted: "I think it is the responsibility of every Narnian courtier to ensure the safety of the palace. Please allow me to participate in the interrogation."

Edmund was so busy that he didn't see Edith for four consecutive days. The first time he met her, he found that she was staying with Blood Moon at night. "They are my people—" he used a menacing tone, "I believe Lord Taylor has no intention of usurping the monarch."

As soon as the words "Used Monarch" came out, Taylor finally fell silent.The King of Justice had a lot of talk, so he called all kinds of people back to their original posts.

In the end, only Edith, Saknur, and Edmund were left in the empty hall of the apse.

"what on earth is it?"

Edith knew that what the King of Justice said was mainly about her alone.She took the two of them into an empty room, and explained all the suspicions and anomalies.

"How do you think I should deal with you?" Edmund sat on the deck chair on the balcony, looking tiredly at the starry sky outside the window.

Saknur said in a deep voice: "Blood Moon violated military orders by trespassing on the inner palace, everything should be dealt with according to regulations."

Edith didn't speak, and Edmund knew she must be a little bit unconvinced—she was still insisting that there was something wrong with the waiter boy, and that investigating the case was obviously more important than complying with those damn regulations.Also, she might be embarrassed by this unplanned meeting.

"I will send someone to continue investigating this matter." The Justice King turned his head and looked at the two people in the room, "But you—the blind should do what the blind should do, and the executor should have a good rest at night so as not to affect the next day's tasks .As for the punishment...not to leave the Intelligence Bureau for the next three days, this is already the lightest punishment."

After getting the order, Saknur wanted to take Edith and leave together.But the girl obviously wanted to explain something, and stood there in the dark room.He looked at King Justice on the balcony, sighed inaudibly, and was the first to close the door and leave.

"I can't find anyone else who can help me." Edith said guiltily.

"It doesn't matter who you're looking for," said Edmund quietly, "but why isn't that person me?"

"I know you've been busy lately—" Edith said hastily, but was quickly interrupted.

"You always mistrust your own eyes."

"You have always helped me, but I don't know what I can do for you—" The Justice King, who has been in power for the past few days, seemed a little depressed, "I know that your birthday is coming soon, Etie."

If he hadn't mentioned it suddenly, Edith would have almost forgotten about it. "But I may not have time to attend the little party Lucy prepared for you." He stood up and walked to the girl, pinning her sideburn hair with his fingers, "I really have incompetent eyes..."

Edith saw that he didn't match his words, and silently stroked his shoulder.There were too many things between the two of them, but at this moment, she suddenly realized that maybe a quick fight like Edmund suggested at the beginning was the right thing to do.At least if she agrees to disclose her identity, today's troubles caused by Tai Luo will not happen; the King of Justice doesn't have to travel through mountains and rivers to leave the inner palace every day in order to see herself huddled in the small attic.But now, she has more important things to do-the recordings about Calormen, the island of Dorne, strange noises at night... There are too many doubts that need to be told to Edmund as soon as possible.

The next day, the Justice King, who synthesized all the information on himself and Edith, called Mr. Tumnus, the Castle Master.

"What's the name of the boy who cleans the top floor of the castle?"

"His name is Finch, and he is the waiter brought by Jordan, the Lord of the Seven Islands who visited three years ago."

"Then why didn't he follow the lord back to the Seven Islands?" King Justice asked.

Mr. Tumnus thought about it seriously for a moment: "It seemed that he accidentally broke his leg. Lord Jordan was anxious to return to the island, so he left him in Narnia as a waiter."

Edmund nodded: "Please call him for me."

Twenty minutes later, the boy's body was placed in front of King Justice.

"He died roughly between five and eight in the morning, with a knife pierced through the heart." The red dwarf Rolev, the castle's imperial physician and bachelor, said after examining the body.

King Justice was cold all over.There must be something wrong with Finch, and the person who killed him in advance must have known that he was investigating this matter.As for those who appeared during the dispute last night, apart from Edith, Saknur, and herself, there were only a few people left—a few guards at the exit of the apse, and Taylor.

"Sister Lucy said she would have come... but I didn't expect that someone died suddenly in the castle." Friel looked at the compass-shaped birthday cake on the table and bit her lip.

Edith smiled at her: "It's okay, I understand her and Ed. I feel a little guilty about holding a birthday party in such an eventful time."

Mona poked Edith's forehead: "It's not up to you to decide when your birthday is. Now that the cake and presents are all prepared, you can't let them down."

More and more soldiers entered the small hall, and the chatter and laughter gradually became louder.Edith heard the voices of Acting Director Amos, Saknur, Gabriela and others one after another.She decided to let go of her worries temporarily and repay everyone's concern with the best state.

After lighting eighteen candles, Furuier said loudly, "Make a wish."

In fact, Edith has already passed the age of believing that dreams come true; she can't see the dancing candlelight in front of her, and she has long been used to the boundless darkness.But in the silence, she still closed her eyes, put her hands together, and slowed down her breathing:

I hope to have light again.In order to defend Narnia, in order to fulfill their mission.

Aslan, can you hear me?

Tribenzia Pier.

"This time it's my turn to see you off, Peter." Queen Sharon stood on the waterside terrace with a natural and bright smile.

"I think it's enough to get here. The sea breeze in Tribinia is much colder than that in Narnia." The Supreme King was as considerate as before, better than his brother, "Keep warm."

Sharon smiled and looked at the man she once fell in love with.The strange light emanating from the young man gradually faded away, and now he has become an ordinary friend in her eyes.

"My vision was not bad back then." She suddenly talked about the old things with relief.

The Supreme King was a little surprised, but he was not completely unaware that Sharon was interested in him.

"But your eyesight is clearly better now," he said subtly and humbly.

"Pete!" Susan, who boarded the returning ship, called him from afar.

The Supreme Dynasty waved her hand in response, turned around and kissed the queen goodbye: "Looking forward to receiving your wedding invitation."

The sudden murder of Cair Paravel has the King of Justice and the Queen of Valor on edge.Pevensie, who was two years old and should still be in high school in London, dispatched hundreds of people to search, interrogate, and strip cocoons... almost two days and two nights without closing their eyes.

Edmund was actually very suspicious of Taylor, but he couldn't produce any evidence, and he didn't dare to accuse him easily.If he is really the mastermind behind the scenes, then rashly probing may put Kyle Paravel into a crisis unprepared; The scolding was bloody, and then the people of Dorne had very good reasons to scold the Pevensie family bloody.He has secretly dispatched a few of his confidants working in the castle to spy on Taylor's actions, which is currently the least possible way to startle the enemy.

"The goat soldiers at the scene looked innocent, Tai Luo's speech was impeccable, the murder weapon could not be found, and the scene of the crime was clean..." The Queen of Bravery walked back and forth in her brother's office in dismay, "Ah What about Aslan? I need Aslan to save me!"

Edmund is more concerned about the conspiracy that is trying to hide under the murder case.He sent Rolev and other bachelors to search the utility room that Edith mentioned, and the results should be out soon.

"Your Majesty," Rolev tremblingly walked into the office, "We collected some black powder on the floor, and the ingredients are yet to be studied."

Lucy frowned: "Then please hurry up, Bachelor Rolev!"

After a lively birthday party the night before, Edith wakes up on the first morning in August.

The pale light brought penetrating burning pain, and a stream of physiological tears came out of her eyes, and she hurriedly closed her eyes again.

After a moment of relief, she slowly half-opened her eyes again.

It's light, and blurred colors.The girl blinked her eyes frantically, thinking she was still in a dream.

She jumped off the bed and ran down the dormitory with bare feet.The green trees and grass in front of her, the blue sky and ocean in the distance, the slanting golden morning light dappledly fell on her white sailor suit.She closed her eyes and threw herself on the grass, greedily embracing this new, reborn world.

"Aslan..." She stroked the soft and tender grass buds in her hand, "Is that you?"

"Where are you going in a hurry?" Furiel, who lived with her, learned that she had regained her eyesight, and looked at her sister who was busy in her hands in puzzlement while being happy.

"Go to see Edmund—let him resume my job as an executive immediately, and give me the authority to investigate the case." Edith said while pressing her feet into her shoes.

"But his three-day grounding isn't over yet—"

"Fucking three-day grounding." The girl became wild and rude with excitement, and then rushed downstairs again like a whirlwind. "Tell them I can see—thanks, Furi!"
