Mystery: The Stars Returner

"The friendship between your parents is not a capital that you can speak freely, and if you do something wrong, you should pay the price. This is a very simple truth."

Hasta just calmly led Xio to his position and asked Xio to bring out some evidence that she had already prepared.

"Haha, will the eagle soaring in the sky forget the kindness of feeding him before leaving the nest?" Georgina Augustus' tone was still very unkind.

"If you have carefully studied my life, you should know that I definitely hate my nominal father more than I love him."

Georgina Augustus was silent for a while, no longer so quarrelsome. She turned to look at Xio aside, rubbed her brows and said, "Daughter of Mason Dill, what do you want to ask for tonight?"

"My father, he is so upright and kind, he must not die unjustly on the charge of rebellion!" Xio's eyes turned red.

"I can help your father restore his reputation and return the title and fiefdom of the Dill family to you." Georgina Augustus nodded and said, "Is there anything else?"

"The mastermind who framed my father's unjust death must receive the punishment he deserves."

"Death is like a lamp going out. It's hard for me to agree to this condition."

Xio took a deep breath before saying, "I want to make the truth known to the public and completely restore my father's innocence."

Hearing this, Georgina Augustus frowned slightly and subconsciously looked at Hasta aside.

Mason Dill’s case was simple. The mastermind behind his unjust death on charges of treason was George III. This was no secret within the royal family.

But now that George III has died, wanting to reveal the truth is similar to the Loen royal family issuing a self-incriminating edict for this.

Such behavior will greatly affect the authority of the Loen royal family.

And this is not the only wrong thing that George III did. It should be said that every king is like this. There is no king with clean hands.

"Miss Hugh Dill, may I have a word with you in private?"

Georgina Augustus saw that the main breakthrough to solve tonight's matter was Hugh.

Xio hesitated for a moment, then agreed to the request when Hastur didn't express anything special. About ten minutes later, the two of them returned.

Xio was in a good mood, but still slightly dissatisfied, while Georgina Augustus looked much more relaxed.

Hastur roughly understood what the two had just talked about. Georgina Augustus should have dismissed George III's mistakes and blamed them on partial beliefs and lax scrutiny, and used this to introduce another scapegoat for slander. , thereby concealing the disgraceful history of George III from the public.

Although he was not very satisfied with this solution, Xio had already accepted it, and judging from her usual style, she would probably stay in the Loen Kingdom to work in the future, so she didn't say anything more.

To solve the problem of Hasta, Georgina Augustus naturally led the meeting conversation on the right track. Hasta only listened and did not express his opinion.

On the other hand, as for Greg, who has now inherited the title, his uncle, the Prime Minister, seems to have given in, and is gradually praising him as the family talker.

After the meeting, Georgina Augustus wanted to invite Hastur to stay and talk alone.

"I'm not as casual as my father."

Hastur just replied lightly, and led Xio out of the manor under her angry eyes.

Along the way, Xio didn't say anything. He just held tightly a small bag of meager evidence that he had worked so hard to collect.

No one looked at the so-called evidence, and Duke Georgina Augustus didn't even have the intention to take back the evidence.

This undoubtedly made Xio feel depressed and an indescribable feeling of suffocation.

After driving Xio back to the street where she lived, before getting off the bus, Xio said in a depressed tone: "Do my efforts look ridiculous in their eyes?"

The word "them" is used here, but Hastur knows that he is also in this category.

"It turned out well, didn't it?"

"..." Xio was silent for a while, "I will still keep working hard."

Hastur just smiled and said: "The royal family should compensate you with a manor, and you can move in with Forsi."

"Thank you Mr. Hastur."

Xio bowed seriously, then stepped out of the carriage, lifted up her skirt and went upstairs, as if she was eager to tell Forsi the good news.

……

On December 12st, in the West District, near Green Park Street, a brand new building was finally revealed to the eyes of passers-by.

A few months ago, a large piece of land here was suddenly purchased by a mysterious buyer for a large sum of money. Then the nearby area was fenced off and a large number of construction workers were called in to start work.

People passing by can only see the dusty scene inside from a distance, and cannot find out what is being built here.

It was not until today that the fence surrounding the perimeter was removed, and the buildings that had been under construction for many days were finally exposed to the eyes of tourists.

This is a building with an obvious church style, mainly yellow and black, with yellow walls and black pointed protrusions. The glass is not ordinary painted, but dotted with star spots, like stars. The fragments blend into the glass surface little by little.

Entering the interior of the church, there is a dark and dark tone, like a dark night shrouding it. What is responsible for illuminating the church are the candles hanging on the walls, ceilings, and both sides of the corridor.

What is different from ordinary candles is that once these special candles are lit, the light they emit is neither fiery red nor orange, but rather a hazy light blue light.

When they were all lit, the entire church seemed to bloom into a starry sky.

In the central hall and prayer hall of the church, there is a statue of the King in Yellow. There is no specific face, only the ragged yellow clothes outline the general shape. There is a book floating on his chest, called "The Prophecy of Prophecy". Book".

There is a courtyard inside the church. Going deeper from the courtyard is a small forest that looks like a natural forest. In the center of the small forest, there is a natural lake in a circular shape.

This was the biggest consideration for the Yellow Monks organization in choosing this location.

In Queens, inside the villa, Hasta is sitting in the study, listening to Mrs. Lisa's detailed introduction to the scenery of the Yellow Church based on a church drawing.

After the introduction, Hastur asked: "Have the invitations for the ceremony been sent out in advance?"

"It's been done. Please rest assured, Lord Angel." Mrs. Lisa paused, put away the church drawings and said, "I'm just worried that there may be an accident tonight."

"It is not good?"

Hasta saw the worry in Mrs. Lisa's heart, "Or do you think that the gods you believe in are not enough to suppress the scene?"

Lady Lisa quickly denied that she had such an idea, and then Hastur asked her if she was ready to become pope.

Pope, Monk in Yellow, Sequence 1 of the Extraordinary Path, even Mrs. Lisa herself is not sure whether she can be promoted.

"Perhaps a miracle will come again."

"This is what I have been waiting for,"

Mrs. Lisa said goodbye and left. Hastur stayed in the study for a while, then led Sharon and Azshara out for shopping.

As the New Year approaches, Backlund is once again busy.

At No. 160 Berklund Street, Klein, who still maintained his Monopoly persona, finally waited for Mr. Azik who came from the far northern ice field.

At this time, I was sitting on the balcony on the second floor, listening to Mr. Azik talk about his travel life during this period.

From seal fishing in the northern ice field to the current chaos in the Feysac Empire, Mr. Azik, who has experienced it all personally, slowly narrates it in his plain and gentle tone.

Klein seemed to be following Mr. Azik's narration on an adventure and journey.

"I really want to go out and have a look." Klein said with emotion.

"You are making rapid progress. Maybe it's time to take a break. If a person only knows how to move forward in his life, he will definitely miss a lot of scenery along the way."

"Mr. Azik, I understand what you mean, but I feel uneasy in my heart. Unimaginable things may happen in the future, and I dare not slack off for a moment."

The two chatted for a while, and the topic naturally turned to the matter about the establishment ceremony of the monks in yellow.

It's ten o'clock tonight, a day with bright stars.

"I don't know much about this organization. I only came into contact with it once when I was traveling in the Fusac Empire. It's hard to say what their position is."

"Does Mr. Azik know about the hidden existence of the King in Yellow?"

"In my long historical memory, there is no information about this hidden existence. Maybe he is an even older existence."

Klein had a slightly disappointed look on his face, and then he took out an invitation from the drawer. The cover showed the classic image of the King in Yellow Clothes in ragged yellow clothes.

"They also invited me to attend tonight's church establishment ceremony." Klein handed the invitation letter to the interested Mr. Azik. "I'm still hesitant. I don't know if I should go to tonight's ceremony."

"If it's inconvenient for you, I can go there for you."

"Mr. Azik seems very interested in this?"

"I once met a confused man in the far northern ice field who didn't know where to go. In him, I vaguely saw the image on your invitation."

Klein thought for a while and said with a smile: "Then I'd better accompany Mr. Azik."
