Tewat's Me Undercover in Solstice Winter
Chapter 13 Yilok, are you the assassin?
Westwind Church.
After being treated by Priest Prayer, Cripps, who was still dying, woke up.
"Mr. Clipps's injury is no longer serious."
"Fortunately, those swords didn't hurt his vitals. He only needs a few more days of recuperation and he'll be fine."
"Be careful not to work too hard and just rest peacefully."
The priest responsible for the treatment gave some instructions and left.
Seeing that Cripps was fine, the other members of the knights said a few greetings and left one after another, leaving only Diluc and Kaia here to take care of him.
After everyone left, Cripps leaned on the bedside and called weakly: "Diluc, Kaia, come here."
Hearing their father calling, the two brothers ran over quickly.
As soon as they arrived, they heard Cripps ask: "Has the assassin been caught?"
"He ran away."
Diluc's face darkened and he said angrily: "When I catch this bastard, I will cut him into pieces!"
Upon hearing the news that the assassin had escaped, Cripps looked up to the sky and sighed.
Then he smiled bitterly: "This is fate."
"Father, what is that thing you are using?" Diluc asked with a frown.
When he was fighting the man in black in the wine cellar, he noticed that the power Cripps used was very strange.
Unlike the pure and harmless elemental power, that kind of filthy and unknown power can make people dizzy just by looking at it.
"That thing is called the evil eye."
"I got it from the hands of fools."
Clipps only said these two sentences and was no longer willing to say more.
Seeing him like this, Diluc didn't ask any more questions, but firmly remembered the name Evil Eye in his mind.
"Could that assassin be the one who fools everyone?"
Kaia, who had been deep in thought since just now, suddenly asked.
"This possibility cannot be ruled out."
"But the problem now is that that person used three elemental powers. Kaiya, do you believe there is really such a person in this world?"
Diluc sighed helplessly.
The assassin's features are easy to identify, but it's just hard to believe.
In the continent of Teyvat, when people gain the recognition of God, they will obtain the Eye of God, an external magical organ, which can be used to guide the use of elemental power.
No one can tell exactly how this recognition came about.
It might be a thought, it might be a strong desire, or it might just be a simple saying that I need an Eye of God, and then it will appear out of thin air.
This kind of irregular thing has caused countless ordinary people who long for the recognition of gods to pursue it but cannot.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, a person can only obtain one Eye of God in his lifetime.
The owners of the Eye of God on the continent of Teyvat basically use a single element.
Diluc simply couldn't imagine how he could do such a terrifying thing by using three elemental powers.
However, after listening to Diluc's words, Kaia thought carefully for a while, and then said with an extremely certain tone: "The assassin must be a fool."
Cripps and Diluc both turned to look at him and asked in unison: "Why?"
"Evil eye."
Kaia said with certainty: "Three divine eyes are absolutely impossible, but with three evil eyes, it's impossible to say for sure."
"But my father's evil eye does not use elemental power."
Diluc shook his head.
He had seen Cripps use the evil eye.
It is completely different from the pure elemental power used when fighting the man in black.
"Is there a possibility?"
"I mean is there a possibility."
"Is there also different types of evil eyes?"
Kaiya said his guess: "You have also fought against the Foolish People. Have you found that they all have elemental powers? But have you seen that they have the Eye of God?"
Diluc recalled it carefully and frowned: "I have indeed never seen it. I always thought they hid the Eye of God."
"Looking at it this way, they may indeed be using the evil eye."
After saying that, he gritted his teeth and cursed: "It is indeed these winter wild dogs. One day, I will uproot them."
"But there is another possibility."
Kaia took a deep look at Diluc and Cripps: "The assassin may also be a member of the Knights of the West Wind."
"..."
"..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell into a deathly silence.
......
Goethe Hotel.
Ilok has successfully led people in.
His behavior of bravely entering the Dragon Pond and seeking justice for Cripps made the people of Mondstadt excited and applauded.
"Humph--"
Leonid struck the thunder hammer hard and glanced around coldly.
The sixty-man company behind him also followed suit. The elemental power of various colors shone like a light party in front of the hotel.
The people of Mondstadt who had been applauding just now fell silent, not daring to make any more noise.
Inside the Goethe Hotel, under the command of Ilok, the Knights of the West Wind roughly moved around in every room.
Lin Feng did not express dissatisfaction with their behavior, but stood upstairs with his arms folded and a smile on his face.
Soon, one floor was turned over.
After finding nothing, the Zephyr Knight expanded the search area to the second floor.
Yilok followed Lin Feng's previous plan, kicked open the secret door in the basement, and led people to the innermost room.
As soon as he opened the door, he was stunned.
This room is filled with documents, piled up like mountains one after another.
From this vast pile of documents, it would be impossible to find a document indicating that the Lawrence family conspired to assassinate Cripps.
Ilok is no fool.
His ability to climb to such a high position as the Inspector General of the Knights of the West Wind relies not only on his strength, but also on his extraordinary brains.
As soon as he saw the situation in front of him, he guessed that he had been tricked by the diplomatic envoy.
"You bastard, you are planning to make me take the blame!"
The furious Yilok quickly retreated with his men.
However, as soon as he walked out of the basement, he saw an extremely familiar figure standing at the door of the basement.
Falga!
How is he here?
Ilok was shocked and was about to salute when he heard Falga ask in a deep voice: "Have you found any evidence?"
Ilok, who was still high-spirited before, hurriedly replied: "No, there is nothing in it."
"That's it."
Falga did not get angry, but patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I have already negotiated with the diplomatic envoy, and he will not blame you for your rudeness."
"Speaking of which, I have to thank you for being so considerate and willing to go to war with fools for Cripps."
"When this incident is over, the position of deputy captain will belong to you."
These words made Ilok feel flattered.
Unexpectedly, he was tricked and actually got promoted as a blessing in disguise.
He glanced at Lin Feng, who had a gloomy expression, and then solemnly performed a knight's salute to Falga, and proudly said loudly: "I am willing to fight for the honor of the Knights, and may the Wind God protect Mondstadt forever!"
pat-
Just as he was saluting, a black glove suddenly fell out of his pocket.
When he saw the style of the gloves clearly, Falga's face darkened and he asked angrily.
"Ilok, why do you have the gloves that Cripps was robbed from?"
"Could it be."
"Are you the assassin?"
