Chapter 1481: Li Ang's Motivation

~7 min read 1,338 words

"What did you say?"

After listening to the report from the Great Witch Court's guard captain, the Shaman Society president's brain couldn't help but be slightly stunned, his expression confused:

"Your people caught the prince?"

"Not caught, not caught, it's invited... although the means might have been rough at the beginning, after knowing the identity of that prince, they were very polite..."

After explaining awkwardly, seeing the muscles on the Shaman Society president's face tighten rapidly and his two thick eyebrows twist visibly, the guard captain who came to report hurriedly opened his mouth to make up:

"My lord, this is actually just a misunderstanding. At that time, my people were acting on Princess Caitlin's orders, searching for underground society bases everywhere, looking for the Yarn Ball Society that plotted to assassinate His Majesty the Witch King.

But that prince and his maid not only happened to appear in the target base, but also couldn't say why they were there. That base also searched out the personnel list of the Yarn Ball Society, so my people brought them back along the way."

"..."

Your people just brought them along the way, I almost went on the road!

After listening to the guard captain's explanation, the Shaman Society president's face was still terrifyingly black.

Things like catching the other side's envoy can be big or small. If no one pursues it, it's naturally a laugh. But once someone wants to borrow the topic, it will definitely lead to a quite serious diplomatic incident, and may even lead to a war!

That is, the mother clan of that Prince Watching Watching Qiaoshuya has some marriage ties with the Shaman Society, and the two countries have another layer of alliance relationship, so the possibility of real trouble is not great. Otherwise, if you really caught a key member of a hostile kingdom, not only would this stupid guard captain be finished, even I would be driven off the stage!

After couldn't help but glare at the guard captain, the Shaman Society president asked with a black face:

"Where are the people? Where did you invite them to! Don't tell me you locked them up!"

"No, no!"

After shaking his head hurriedly, the guard captain who came to report hurriedly answered:

"Before arriving at the prison, my people had already confirmed the identity of that prince and sent them to the reception room to rest. Except for not letting them leave, there was absolutely no offensive behavior."

You still locked them up!

Hearing this, the Shaman Society president couldn't help but have a toothache, and subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to scold people.

However, when thinking of the death order issued by that Princess Caitlin, who directly bypassed the joint council of the seventeen major societies, the dirty words that had already surged to the Shaman Society president's lips were swallowed back again.

The situation this time is different from the past. The people of that Yarn Ball Society are suspected of assassinating His Majesty the Witch King, and it is said that they almost succeeded, so Princess Caitlin was furious and directly bypassed the joint council to issue a death order, requiring them to be arrested at all costs.

And although his subordinates don't have much brains, they are not completely stupid people who don't know the importance, so they must have really found some key evidence, so...

"Are you sure you got the real list?" "Sure! Very sure!"

Seeing that the Shaman Society president not only didn't scold people directly, but his expression even eased, the Great Witch Court guard captain couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that he had passed this level, then said with eagerness:

"Although it is definitely not the complete list, I had people take the photos searched this time and compare them with the known members of the Yarn Ball Society, and found that the degree of overlap is very high.

As for the rest, they have already gone to make arrests separately. With this new list, plus the news confessed by those caught, it is estimated that in less than a week, the entire Yarn Ball Society can be wiped out!"

A week, huh...

After listening to his subordinate's words, the Shaman Society president first fell silent for a moment, then raised three fingers and said with an unrefusable tone:

"Three days! I can help you block for three days. As long as you can catch all the main members of the Yarn Ball Society within three days, then I will carry this matter for you. In the case of having evidence, except for the presidents of the seventeen major societies, you can arrest everyone directly!"

When he reached this point, he hesitated slightly, then lowered his voice:

"Including that prince who came to the mission, if he is really related to the Yarn Ball Society, you can use some relatively gentle interrogation methods on him without leaving obvious external injuries!"

"Ah?"

"Princess Caitlin means that if there is only one Yarn Ball Society, it should not be able to plot to assassinate His Majesty the Witch King. There may be other black hands behind this!"

Looking at the guard captain who opened his eyes wide and was clearly shocked, the Shaman Society president narrowed his eyes and said:

"Although there is no definite evidence yet, according to the style of that Lionheart Prince, he is likely the person behind the Yarn Ball Society, and the action of assassinating the Great Witch King is likely planned by him!"

That Lionheart Prince... could be the black hand behind the assassination of the Great Witch King?

"This... no way, right?"

【Text missing/p>

Thinking that this inference was too outrageous, the guard captain said skeptically:

"He looks so young, and seems to have no city government. The feeling he gives doesn't look like someone who can do this kind of thing, and we are allies, he has no motive to assassinate His Majesty the Witch King!"

"That's hard to say."

After recalling the situation he knew, the Shaman Society president shook his head:

"You have reached the guard captain of the Great Witch Court, but you are not a member of the joint council after all. You still cannot touch a lot of information... The problem with that Lionheart Prince is very big!"

"According to the news I heard before, although that Wang Hou Veronica is shrewd and capable, her brother is the more recognized successor. When competing for the throne, he was actually always at a disadvantage.

However, the Lionheart Prince, who had just been selected as the successor duke, immediately proposed to that Princess Veronica on the day he inherited the duke's position, giving her quite huge support, directly allowing her to regain the upper hand... and this was just the beginning!"

When he reached this point, probably thinking of the evil prince's face that looked ambitious at first glance, the Shaman Society president couldn't help but pause, then said with jealousy:

"After that Wang Hou Veronica agreed to the proposal, it was only about a month later that the capital broke out in large-scale turmoil. A large number of rebels suddenly attacked the palace, threw the queen into the lake and almost drowned her, scaring the old king into illness and retiring in a hurry.

And it is said that the irritable Prince Watching Watching Qiaoshuya, after that, not only did not stand up to resist, but became incomparably honest. He not only took the initiative to report the former queen who wanted to hook up with ministers, but even cooperated with that Lionheart Prince to go on a mission.

After coming here, he was even more obedient. He didn't even make a sound when he was called a son by that Lionheart Prince in public, and didn't have half a temper. He was completely two people from the rumored arrogant and arrogant appearance... Guess who he changed so much because of?"
