Chapter 929: Seeing Lideyala Again

Seeing Lideyala Again

Sun Miao compromised, compromised to her own thirst for knowledge.

Seeing Cheng Shi's smile didn't look fake, she hesitated again and again, took out a sheet of paper, and carefully took the iron arrowhead from Cheng Shi's hand, wrapping it in the paper.

"This is...?"

"One of the 【Time Notes】 of 【Memory】. In His trials, you occasionally encounter 【Time Notes】 left in dreams. The quantity is very scarce, and one is used less each time.

This is probably the most luxurious consumable in this game, Cheng Shi, you better not be lying to me.

The function of this note is source tracing. You can understand it as visiting a dream like a dream-peeping ranger, except that ordinary dream-peeping rangers and dream-peeping props all need conscious life as a carrier, while the note in my hand doesn't.

Just need a related object, and you can use the paper to enter its 'dream', return to the past, and see that past event again.

Of course, you can't change history, because we are just onlookers in the dream."

Sun Miao typed with one hand and operated with the other, neither delaying the other. Her hand movements were fast. The moment she finished typing, the operation on the other hand also ended.

I saw a burst of azure light overflowing from the paper, pouring onto the ground, like a rising tide, slowly submerging the ankles of the two.

Seeing this, Cheng Shi frowned and moved in small steps behind Sun Miao.

"..." Sun Miao glanced at him expressionlessly. "Excessive caution will only waste your mind. Rest assured, compared to calculating you, information and history are what I'm interested in.

Also, I have already set up a magic circle in the large tent. No one will notice here for a while. You can rest assured and roam in the dream."

Hearing this, Cheng Shi looked happy: "You should have said so earlier. If you had said so earlier, why would I be so careful? Hurry up, hurry up, lead the way in front."

"..."

The tide of memory rose higher and higher, and soon completely swallowed the two.

Cheng Shi only felt a darkness before his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he found himself on the roof of a building, and the city with a panoramic view under his feet was the familiar Katerou Court.

After entering the dream, Sun Miao seemed to no longer need her electronic beeper, and her voice echoed directly in Cheng Shi's ears.

"Sure enough, it's her, Lideyala!"

Cheng Shi turned his head along with the voice, only to see this Grand Investigator holding the spire of this tower that looked like a clock tower with one hand, like a helmsman hoisting a sail in the wind, looking far away in a certain direction.

Sun Miao was surprisingly familiar with this city. When she noticed Lideyala's gaze, she nodded and said:

"It seems you guessed right. The direction she is looking at is exactly Esares's residence. The death of this High Inquisitor really has something to do with her.

And there are indeed groups of Iron Law Knights hunting under our feet. Looking at it this way, the unofficial history is rarely right for once."

As soon as the words fell, Lideyala rushed toward that direction like a feathered arrow shot from a full bow. Cheng Shi and Sun Miao didn't dare to fall behind and hurriedly followed.

Not long after, they came to the foyer of Esares's house. However, at this time, this nearly retired inquisitor was already dead, dead under a short crossbow bolt.

The first thing Cheng Shi saw after landing was Lideyala taking out the iron arrowhead engraved with Esares's name and stained with the blood of order from Esares's chest.

Seeing this, the pupils of the two shrank.

Wrong.

The previous imagination was all wrong. From Lideyala landing to the two of them following, it was only two or three seconds. Not to mention whether the Grand Investigator could kill silently, even if she could, this corpse had clearly been dead for more than ten minutes.

The blood had already stopped flowing, which meant the murderer had already succeeded and gone far away.

The two looked at each other, not expecting that there was still a trick in Esares's death.

Lideyala squeezed the bloody arrowhead, watching her adopted father die with his eyes wide open on the ground, a trace of compassion flashed in her eyes, but she didn't show any sympathy.

An inquisitor who had abandoned his original intention and dared to muddle through under the gaze of 【Order】 was no longer the father she admired.

So Lideyala didn't cry. She felt more and more that it wasn't just 【Order】 that had a problem in the Grand Court of Judgment. Under its influence, the supreme power of Katerou Court seemed to be falling apart.

Even more ironically, shortly after Lideyala landed in the courtyard, the Iron Law Knights of the whole city seemed to have grown eyes and surrounded this place. Now, anyone could guess who had a problem.

Among the six supreme powers, the chaotic High Inquisitor Loyat died at the hands of the Grand Justice Laquis, and Laquis died by suicide. Now another High Inquisitor Esares was also dead. The one who would be "crowned" with the crime of murderer was undoubtedly the investigator Lideyala, but she was clearly not the murderer.

So, the only people who could easily kill a High Inquisitor in Katerou Court, the pilgrimage site of 【Order】, at this time, besides her, only had two possibilities:

The last High Inquisitor Ke Laoer, and the Grand Executioner Altayle.

But the problem is, Ke Laoer was patrolling foreign affairs at the border at this time, and there was only one Altayle left in the city. So besides the Grand Executioner, who else could be this murderer?

The answer seemed to surface, but the problem is, what about the motive?

Was it that this Grand Executioner discovered Esares's blasphemous and negligent behavior and thus had the heart to kill?

But why didn't he, who advocated strict laws, proceduralize this murder? In this way, not only could he judge a High Inquisitor to show justice to the people, but he could also add a merit to the strict sect's governance of Katerou Court. Such an opportunity was rare in a thousand years. Logically speaking, Altayle shouldn't miss this opportunity if he wasn't stupid.

Cheng Shi frowned, feeling that things didn't seem that simple.

Clearly, Lideyala also thought of this point, so she didn't go to question Altayle, but left Katerou Court directly, got rid of the pursuit of the Iron Law Knights, and galloped toward the place where Ke Laoer was.

In her view, this was undoubtedly a frame-up, and the real beneficiary was this High Inquisitor Ke Laoer.

As for why Ke Laoer, who was far away, could kill Esares in Katerou Court...

Don't forget, Lideyala once investigated the matter of 【Truth】 followers conducting secret experiments in the Grand Court of Judgment. She knew that Ke Laoer had already mastered some "illegal" technologies from the Tower of Reason, such as... slicing.

The intermediate pursuit process was very long. Lideyala, who had lost her identity, was unable to move an inch in the Grand Court of Judgment. Fortunately, for Cheng Shi and Sun Miao, this was just a dream, so they accelerated this past, letting the dream jump directly to the moment Lideyala faced Ke Laoer.

At this time, the civil war in the Tower of Reason was becoming more and more intense, and Ke Laoer had also been conscripting soldiers within the national border. His patrol of various places this time was to urge various counties to send warriors to the front line to resist the fire of war spreading from the Tower of Reason.

And the moment Lideyala solved the guards and sneaked into Ke Laoer's room, the white-haired old man sitting behind the long table slowly raised his head.

"You finally came, Lideyala."

"Ready to be judged, Ke Laoer?"

Ke Laoer smiled:

"Why, does the Grand Investigator who has always followed procedural justice also want to overstep her authority and conduct a trial privately on behalf of our patron?

But you forgot, I am the inquisitor. In this country, it has always been me who judges sinners."

Lideyala sneered and took out a short crossbow. And the arrow embedded in the crossbow bed clearly had the iron arrowhead engraved with Esares's name.

"Then, respected High Inquisitor, you can now sentence my murder crime in advance."

As soon as the words fell, the sound of the mechanism rose. ===== CHAPTER 930 =====
