The Iron Ship Island of the Great Voyage

Barton said calmly, "No! It's not only the meaning of Irene's princess, but also the meaning of the lord."

"Lord Lord?"

Occam was a little surprised, this kid's energy can actually make the Duke come forward?Could it be that the little girl Irene knew something was wrong and begged hard?

Even so, he didn't let go, and said in a faintly threatening tone: "If you let the suspect out like this, I'm afraid it will cause the elders to hold a parliamentary vote..."

In fact, there have been differences among the veteran nobles in Philip's territory over the years.

Since the fall of the former Tianlan Kingdom, Philip has never sworn allegiance to the new king.That's why the Saro regime restricted the development of Philip's territory everywhere, which also caused a huge impact on the interests of veteran nobles in many territories.

Especially in the past few years, after the new king's regime was stabilized, this kind of conflict became more and more obvious, and the old nobles led by Philip were also quite critical.

As a result, the forces in the territory were roughly divided into two factions. The old nobles headed by the Clive family and the Rodney family tended to be loyal to the "peace faction" surnamed the king, and there was the Lord Philip who always expressed independence. "Hardliners".

The Philip Collar system is a bit like the republic system of ancient Rome in the previous life. Most things are not resolved by Duke Philip himself, but are decided by the council of these nobles and elders.

The Clive family and the Rodney family represent the interests of most of the "peacemaker" elders, and they are very dominant in the parliament.Although Grand Duke Philip has the autocratic power of veto, most of the time, the lord will not forcefully pass the bills that the elders of the parliament do not pass.

Otherwise, this will directly anger the resistance of the major established forces in the territory, and directly cause turmoil in the entire territory.

This system has been passed down for hundreds of years, and it is also the biggest foundation for the prosperity of Philip's territory today. Even if Duke Philip is the lord, he will never change it easily.

Barton seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and said, "Someone in the parliament has already sent a message, so you just do it."

"What? Your lord is ready to exercise a veto?"

Occam did not expect that the lord would be so tough for such a kid this time.

After pondering for a while, he finally made a concession, and said in a deep voice, "Okay! You can let him go. I hope you can think about how our security department can bear the anger of several big families!"

After he finished speaking, he slammed the door angrily and left.

......

At this time, only Raymond and Barton were left in the interrogation room.

Raymond probably understood something after hearing it, and vaguely felt that this incident seemed to involve a dispute between territorial factions.

Button still had a majestic expression, and said, "You can go."

"Thank you."

Raymond got up to thank him, turned around and was about to leave.

Barton nodded.

He stared at Raymond's bald head, with a strange look in his eyes, and finally added: "As a father, I should also say thank you. Thank you for saving my daughter during the trial." Life."

Raymond was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood.

The chief sheriff in front of me seems to be Judy's father?

"Huh? How did Judy know that I saved her?" Raymond was a little puzzled.When he went back to open the treasure chest, he saw the fainted Judy lying alone in the pile of corpses, so he carried her and hid her in a safe place.

Could it be that she was already awake?

Seeing Lei Meng walk out of the security office safely, the crow that had been standing outside the window for a long time flapped its wings and flew away.

Chapter 109 Haines' Code of Death

Anna's apartment.

"I heard that it was the Duke himself who was the guarantor so that you could come out smoothly? It seems that little Irene helped a lot..."

"Hey, hey... Teacher Anna, can you stop touching my head, I always feel weird..."

"Ouch... What's wrong with touching it? Tsk tsk, you are ugly with a bald head, but it's quite easy to touch..."

"..."

Anna said gossipingly, "You really didn't kill Fei Lun?"

Raymond said firmly, "No."

"That's weird..."

Anna blinked and muttered: "Tsk tsk, when I heard the news just now, I thought it must be you who couldn't hold back and killed the 'rival in love'. After all, the evidence is too bad for you, no matter the motive or the witness , Evidence, you have all the evidence..."

"This is also where I am puzzled."

Raymond pursed his lips and said: "The person who set up the situation must know that there is a gap between me and Faerun, and he has observed many things about me in advance... Even if Faerun does not die in the trial, I am afraid that sooner or later he will die in a certain place." A murder scene specially tailored for me."

Anna dragged her cheeks in thought and said, "Why is it necessary to frame you? You don't seem to have any particularly big enemies... The biggest rival in love has become a victim..."

"The person who made the arrangements probably knew that this bit of evidence would not allow me to be convicted, and it would be impossible for me to be easily exonerated. The motive is really puzzling..."

Raymond was also puzzled, and continued: "I have already been to the lord's side. He told me not to run around for a while, and he will take care of other things. From the current situation, because of this incident Son, the biggest impact is the successful arousal of factional conflicts in the territory."

"The faction dispute has indeed become more and more fierce in the past two years..."

Anna obviously knew the situation in the territory, and raised a question: "But the Clive family is the leader of the 'Peace Sect'! They won't be so cruel that they sacrificed their sons in order to cause trouble? I don't know. I heard that Phelan is the future heir of the Clive family, even if they want to intensify the conflict, they will not be so ruthless..."

"This is also a puzzling place...Maybe there is a third-party force, who wants to watch the two factions in the territory fight each other, so as to reap the benefits? But it seems that there is no such force in the territory."

Raymond spread his hands, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "By the way, isn't Fei Lun the second son of the Clive family? How could he become the first heir?"

"Oh... this one... Phelan does have a half-brother who is talented and talented, but it's a pity that he's just the child of old Clive and his ex-wife..."

"I heard that old Clive and his ex-wife fell in love at first sight and had a romantic affair. However, within a few years, his ex-wife died unexpectedly...Of course, there are rumors that old Clive's clan elders, for the benefit of the family, During a certain time when the two of them went on a sea adventure, they designed and murdered her..."

Anna slowly told a story about the Clive family's secrets, saying: "Later, he married the eldest daughter of the Rodney family, and the strong alliance made Phelan. Naturally, this time the son is the only one who fits the two. The interests of the big family are the most suitable heirs."

Hearing this, Lei Meng suddenly seemed to have realized something, but he felt vaguely missing something.

However, all of this is not what Raymond wants to consider now. He must now fully prepare for the trip to the "Hidden Moon Castle" in a few days.

Judging from the importance shown by the vampire boss, this trip may be a matter of life and death.

Now he and the big brother are like grasshoppers tied to the same rope, one is prosperous and the other is damaged... No, to be precise, it should be that the big brother dies and he has to be buried with him. big impact.

Although the boss did not explain what was in the castle from the beginning to the end.

But Lei Meng also vaguely guessed something, maybe it must have a lot to do with him being able to survive the fierce battle when the One Piece fleet attacked the Navy headquarters.

The failure-or-success determination revealed by Capone also gave Raymond great confidence. At least this kind of boss is going to fight to the death, and his chance of survival is much higher.

What's more, only after completing this mission, he is eligible to get the second "Hynes' Death Note" and the "Secret of the Kingdom" that Anna wants to restore the country...
