Quick wear: Boss, he always likes her

Sirius didn't know how to answer this question. In fact, he seldom cared about the affairs of the temple and spent most of his time out fighting monsters.

Many places on this continent are facing the threat of monsters. Since he became an adult, he has been driving monsters away from all over the continent.

But now that his little lover was confused about this, he would pay attention to this matter.

In any case, since it violates the temple's code, it should be punished.

Tingqiao observed Sirius's reaction and felt happy.

This was not something she had arranged on purpose. It was just that Miss Mary happened to come over today, and she just took the opportunity to mention the news she had heard.

Tsk tsk, the temple is really full of loopholes.

Those people of the Light probably didn't take this seriously. The only thing they valued was the cultivation of the Son of God. As for the others, they were just ants... Would God care about the ants on earth snatching food?

Tingqiao suddenly felt that in fact, the working styles of both parties in the early stages were similar, without much substance... they would brainwash people once they got them.

“…What are you thinking about?”

Seeing that she was in a daze, Sirius came over and waved his hand in front of her eyes.

Thinking that she was still worried about Mary, he took the initiative and said, "I will investigate this matter, and then I will punish those who are involved in it according to the code."

Tingqiao was silent for a few seconds, then smiled and said, "Well, I believe you can do it."

In fact, she felt that the result would not be very pleasing to the people… the person who did this did not need to take the initiative, so how could she be held accountable?

Who can tell right from wrong in business traps? People go bankrupt every day.

Those who were responsible for distributing the relief funds may not have been instructed to do so. Perhaps they refused to distribute the relief funds in order to please the bishop.

Sometimes, the superiors only need to give a glance, and the subordinates know what to do. If they don't do it, perhaps someone else will be replaced.

To hold the bishop accountable? But he can say that he did not "do it" and he does not know why his subordinates would do so.

They say he accepted gifts from nobles, but other bishops have also been accepting gifts.

...So, in the end, those who are responsible for distributing relief funds should be replaced.

I wonder what this simple-minded Son of God will think at that time?

Should she think of a script in advance and use it to comfort him later?

.

In the afternoon, Sirius returned to the temple.

If it weren't for that little incident, he might have stayed in her pharmacy.

But now... he also cares about this matter a little.

The temple’s relief funds should be sufficient, so how could they refuse to distribute them?

When Larenzo, the person in charge of the relief fund, heard the Son of God asking about this, his heart skipped a beat, "You, you, this matter, I..."

How dare he answer honestly! How could the Holy Son know this? Was someone trying to trip him up?

Under the cold gaze of the Holy Son, Larenzo lowered his head and tried to speak in a calm tone: "Maybe there was a problem with the audit at that time. I thought they were here to defraud the relief funds. You know, such things are not uncommon. Many bankrupt businessmen like to do this..."

He didn't dare tell anyone about Bishop Alejo.

If he offends the bishop, he and his family will be expelled from the Holy City...

"Is there a problem with the review?" It was obvious that Sirius did not believe this answer.

He went to confirm the fact that Mary's father was seriously ill. Mary had indeed sought help from many pharmacies and had kowtowed to the person in charge of the relief funds.

"Under the witness of light, are you sure that what you said is true?" Sirius's eyes were calm and indifferent.

"If you lie, I will punish you on behalf of the light."

He had already made a trip to the slums and the Chamber of Commerce.

The Son of God was clearly very far away from him, but Larenzo could feel him approaching, and his body seemed to be burned by something.

Under the increasing pressure, Larenzo's fragile nerves could no longer bear it, and his throat seemed to be blocked. "I, I, this matter..."

Sirius raised his hand, as if he was about to do something. Larenzo almost collapsed. The Holy Son must have used magic!

"It's Bishop Alejo..." He had no choice but to spit out the name.

Only in the face of death did he realize how fragile he was.

If I can save my life, I can leave the Holy City...

"Why did Bishop Alejo treat their family like this?" Sirius continued to ask.

Larenzo murmured, "Cape (Mary's father) offended the Duke of Bolton. Bishop Alejo was on good terms with the Duke of Bolton. Under the bishop's suggestion, many people deceived Capet... Some time ago, his daughter came to apply for relief funds, and we told Bishop Alejo about this..."

The bishop said nothing, but they got enough hints.

Not long after the interrogation ended, Bishop Alejo and the Pope arrived.

Of course, the temple did not arrange anyone to monitor the Son of God, but now this is the temple, and the Son of God's movements are naturally clear.

Sirius drew his sword and pointed it at Bishop Alejo. In front of everyone's gaze, he said, "Unclean."

It seemed that the judgment of light would take place at the next moment.

Bishop Alejo panicked for a moment when the sword pointed at him, but soon regained his composure and asked, "What is the Holy Son going to do?"

Sirius frowned, looking unhappy, "You have done something that tarnished the light."

Alejo looked at Larenzo, who quietly raised his head and said weakly, "Relief money."

Alejo understood instantly, but he remained calm. "What relief funds? I don't know anything about this matter. The relief funds have always been in their charge, and I have never intervened. Did the Holy Son misunderstand?"

Seeing that the Son's eyes were still cold, he took a few steps closer and asked Larenzo, who was kneeling on the ground: "What did you do?"

Larenzo raised his head. "Yes, it was you who hinted at us not to give Mary relief money..."

Alejo looked puzzled. "How could that be? I never told you to refuse the relief money?"

Larenzo: “You, you didn’t say, but…”

He seemed to realize something and quickly said, "It was at your suggestion that those people from the Chamber of Commerce teamed up to frame Capet!"

Alejo sighed innocently and looked at Sirius, "Holy Son, I am really wronged. I never said those words. How could I know that they would act like this? Besides, there is no hatred between Capet and me!"

This is an indisputable fact.

Larenzo said hurriedly: "But you are on good terms with the Duke of Bolton, and Capet has offended him!"

Alejo didn't care any more. "Duke Bolton has always had good relations with our temple. His daughter is the second prince's wife. She and the second prince are very popular among the people."

Larenzo: “You, you…”

He suddenly realized that he was about to become an abandoned pawn.

As the Holy Son Sirius listened to this long paragraph of defense, he felt an uncontrollable surge of anger in his heart.

Does this person really abide by the precepts of light?

Do the words you say really come from your heart?

Is he really devoted to the light?

Sirius stared at Bishop Alejo coldly, without putting down the sword in his hand from beginning to end.

When Pope Ruvid heard those words, he suddenly realized something. He thought it would be a bad idea to pursue the matter further, otherwise it would provoke confrontation with the royal family.

Once the Holy City is in turmoil, the dark side will not miss this opportunity.

…The celebration cannot be postponed because of this incident.

Rhuvid lowered his head. "So it seems that you misunderstood Bishop Alejo's meaning and did things that you shouldn't have done?"

The Pope's majesty made Larenzo breathless, "It's not me..."

Alejo had calmly stepped aside.

This was just a small matter, and he even felt that the Son of God was making a fuss out of nothing.

The temple would not have reached its current status relying solely on the belief in light.

The royal family and the temple have a mutually supportive relationship, and the balance between the two sides has been maintained for many years.

The second prince is also expected to become the next king, and he does this for the future of the temple.

Luvid said to Sirius: "Sirius, I will have someone investigate this matter thoroughly. If it is really this person who withheld the relief funds, I will punish him severely!"

Sirius lowered his eyes, "Just him?"

There was a hint of mockery in the voice.

He never seemed to realize that people can have such an ugly side.

Why did he go to such great lengths to defeat monsters?

Because the Pope had told him since he was a child about the dangers of monsters and the harm they could do to people. He said that the people of this continent were too weak and could not resist the invasion of monsters just by relying on the city walls.

Once the place where you live is invaded by monsters, the result will be heavy casualties.

Sirius had seen ruined cities, with the ground full of torn corpses, many of which were no longer in human form, and blood everywhere... It was precisely because of this misery that he stood in the front, as an agent of light, to drive out those terrifying monsters and protect the weak people.

But he ignored one thing.

The people behind him would also bare their fangs at their companions.

So, what is the difference between monsters and them?

Is it just because of the dark aura? Is it just because of the appearance?

Luvid noticed that something was wrong with Sirius today, and he comforted him again: "Don't worry, I will investigate this matter myself, and I will arrange for more strict people to manage the relief funds."

Sirius closed his eyes and remained silent for a few seconds before slowly opening them, "Okay."

He did not have sufficient authority, and today he brought Larenzo here for interrogation privately.

At this moment, none of them noticed that under the colorful glazed window, the shadow of the Son of God surged for no reason.

As night fell, Sirius once again hid himself and left the temple.

This time he did not rush to her pharmacy, but stopped outside the temple for a while.

He looked quietly at the magnificent temple, and thought of the scene of people going in and out to pray during the day, whether they were poor or rich, old or young, they were all asking for the blessing of light.

The expressions of those people were very pious.

……

Pope Luvid's expression was very serious, but not because of this matter. He was more concerned about - "Why did the Holy Son suddenly investigate this matter?"

Sirius seldom inquired about the affairs of the temple. He usually went out to fight monsters or practiced advanced magic. Why would he suddenly investigate this matter?

This is a variable.

Could it be that the darkness has made a move?

Felix, who had just returned from checking the slums, said, "Cape happened to leave with his family today. Maybe he met the Son of God somewhere. Should we chase them back?"

Luvid did not intend to let this suspicion go. "Take a team with you to chase them."

He had to find out if there was any darkness involved.

With the speed of the knights, if they chase them now, they can bring the people back by tomorrow morning at the latest.

He thought for a moment, "Where is the Holy Son now?"

Felix: "Odwin said that the Holy Son stayed in the magic room in the afternoon and did not come out. He asked people not to disturb him."

"..." Ruvid once again recalled Sirius's performance today, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Perhaps he wanted to talk to the Son.

He had to show that he was on the side of light, but it was a complicated matter to handle...

"Go..." Ruvid changed his mind just as he started to speak, "Bring the Capet family back first."

He would talk to Sirius after he had clarified the situation.

He must first find out whether there is any darkness involved.

Felix: "Yes, I'll leave now."

.

"You seem to be in a bad state, what happened?"

Tingqiao brought Sirius a cup of milk tea she had prepared. The best black tea plus fresh milk had a very mellow taste.

She had actually noticed his absent-minded state and asked this question on purpose.

The handling of the matter should be pretty much the same as she expected, right?

Should I tell her the result? When the words came to his lips, Sirius inexplicably remembered what he said in the morning to let her believe him, and he hesitated again.

The golden eyes seemed to be stained with a heavy color.

"Siris..." Tingqiao paused, "I think lovers shouldn't hide things from each other."

She rested her elbows on the table, her face in her palms, her eyes filled with sadness.

He seemed frightened by her expression and explained very quickly: "...The Pope said he would investigate the matter personally, but I think that in the end, only Larenzo was punished..."

His voice gradually faded away, and as he spoke of this, his heart was once again enveloped in a heavy mood.

As for the others, Sirius didn't know how to pursue them.

After all, as Bishop Alejo said, he did not "take action" from beginning to end.

There is no actual evidence at all.

“Is that so…” Tingqiao changed her posture to lying on the table, her thick eyelashes trembling slightly, and then she uttered words that sounded like a sigh, “If only the God of Light was watching, he would definitely give them the punishment they deserve.”

Like a child's naive prayer.

Of course, she was pretending.

Sirius stared at the top of her head. In the dim light, he raised his hand and gently stroked her hair, which was soft and black.

Most people here have yellow and brown hair, and black hair is rare.

…she fell asleep.

It was a very ordinary daily routine. Just like most people, I fell into a sweet dream under the gentle touch of my lover.

Sirius walked around to the other side of the table, bent down and picked her up, being very careful not to wake her up.

"...Sirius?"

Despite this, she still slightly opened her eyelids.

Tingqiao was still wary of him.

He thought it was an accident, "Sorry, I woke you up."

"..."

Being stared at by those unintentionally gentle golden eyes, Tingqiao quickly closed his eyes, "It's okay."

"Then I'll carry you back to bed."

"……Um."
