Throne of Radiance

Although the age and state of "Ghost" Adams is not enough for a complete communication between visitors from other worlds and native aborigines, but only a few words from him can integrate these fragmented information. For everyone, this is no small gain.

As for the existence that makes everyone speculate and seems to be secretly guarding the truth and order of this world, everyone temporarily calls him the "Order Keeper", although it also shakes their hearts, and even respects and fears in their hearts, and guards against it. Curiosity coexists - this is the instinctive reaction of mortals to all unknown things, but it seems too far away at present. It is true that we should be prepared now, but there is really no need to worry too much.

But there are more pressing matters right now.

It was the "Rainy Night Serial Murder Case" that happened in Yuanyang City and caused a sensation in Yao Country.

The public opinion team led by Chu Xingrui did a good job. Under the guidance of everyone, the public opinion turmoil that was like thunder on the flat ground has subsided unconsciously, like a flood flowing into the sea without causing waves.The big case that once shocked the whole country seemed to have been completely forgotten in just four months.

Of course, after the kidnapping case, the rainy night serial murder case ended, the killer stopped doing things, and no new victims were born. Naturally, the news about the rainy night serial murder case can only be fried rice, and there is a lot less heat;

The more important reason is that during that time, there were more news bombarding hot searches on the Internet.

A certain heavenly king had a child in secret marriage, a certain trafficked drug addict was arrested, a certain movie queen and plastic girlfriends staged a real version of palace scheming... It seems that a force of justice lurking in the entertainment industry suddenly exerted its strength, so all kinds of attention-grabbing things The news was unearthed in just a few days, and it was too late for netizens to eat melons. Apart from the immediate stakeholders, who cares about such outdated serial murders?

——This is exactly the first task that Chu Xingrui completed after he took office in the Public Opinion Team of the Investigation Division.

He successfully diverted the public's attention to other places, causing the popularity of the rainy night serial murder case to drop rapidly in a short period of time, and the creators of the murder case naturally received less attention.

This greatly reduces the probability of the identity of K, a visitor from another world and an extraordinary person, being discovered.

But in the dark, the detective department did not give up on the investigation of this series of unresolved unsolved cases, as well as the serial killer who had been confirmed by Adams as an extraordinary person from another world.

Prior to this, the culprit had left the Morningstar Empire far away, which made it more difficult to catch him.

If Yao Nation shares information with the Morning Star Empire, and informs the Morning Star Empire of K's various abnormalities and the identity of a suspected extraordinary person from another world, the two most powerful countries on Zhanlan Star will work together, even if it is a person from another world. They also have the confidence to capture the extraordinary person.

However, Yao Country did not do this.

——Information about visitors from other worlds and extraordinary beings is undoubtedly extremely precious.If other countries knew nothing about it, they would undoubtedly be at the forefront of intelligence.It might allow the entire Yao Kingdom to take the leading position in the new era, but how could it be possible to share it with the Morning Star Empire?

Not only do they not know how to share information, but they also conceal it for K in various ways.For example, in the rainy night serial murder case, the various abnormalities revealed by K, and the information that could be teleported to various locations were tightly sealed.

Even if the spies of the Morning Star Empire were inside Yao Country, they would only think that this was an ordinary serial murder case, and would not know about all the abnormalities.

On the other hand, Yao Country communicated with the Morning Star Empire through the normal overseas fugitive capture channels, trying to capture the escaped serial killers and extradite them back to China. Cooperate so that progress is extremely slow.

Originally, Yao Kingdom officials still have this patience to wait. As long as K's special features are not exposed, I believe that the Morning Star Empire will not get involved.

But Adams' appearance changed their minds.

Since this ghost who died tragically at a young age and was too easy to fool has become a non-staff member of the Detective Division and provided so much information to the Detective Division, they should seek justice for him, even if Adams did not make this request.

He seems very easy to please himself, just a little candy and snack toys that children like, or play with him to pass the time, is enough to empty the little ghost's little head.

But as an adult, everyone in the detective department knows that this is never a fair exchange of equivalents. It is more like relying on a child's innocence and ignorance to use a lollipop to deceive the jeweled crown in his hand. A lucrative robbery.At most, they are not "robbing" for their own self-interest, but represent the righteousness of the country.

If they really accepted such an approach with confidence, it would be too shameless.It is even more unworthy to be an official department of a country, representing the entire Yao country, and holding high the name of "righteousness"!

——An organization that can only deceive and deceive, and use the name of righteousness to squeeze members will not last long, let alone represent the government.

So they have every reason to reward Adams for his contributions.

What could be a more rewarding reward than catching the murderer of his parents for him?

Because of this, the Detective Department revised its plan about K, not intending to wait any longer, but determined to pass the overseas fugitive arrest procedure as soon as possible.

However, at this time, K has long since grown from an unknown fugitive to an assassin famous throughout the Morning Star Empire.

To capture him back to Yao Country, the difficulty has risen to a higher level!

The internal opinions of the Morning Star Empire are not yet unified, let alone arresting people and bringing them to justice.

Everything starts after the assassination incident——

The Beiyuan Building assassination case shocked the world, and the most shocking one was of course the mainland of the Morning Star Empire.

The killer pretended to be a pianist and sneaked into the banquet. After playing a piece of piano, he swaggered and killed an imperial jazz, a distant relative of the royal family, and left calmly. How arrogant is this!

It is no exaggeration to say that that night, the capital of the Morning Star Empire, Yindu, known as the "city that never sleeps" and "the capital of stars", completely turned into a real city that never sleeps, the capital of stars.Even the lights of the palace were kept on all night.

As soon as the big case came out, the cabinet, the royal family, the parliament, and the people at the top of this huge empire responded immediately.

Blockade, martial law, searches, arrests, and downward accountability... The order spread all over the world, and countless people started to act all night in a panic; while the three forces above began to test and confront each other, shifting blame, and fishing in troubled waters.

——This situation has been going on in this country for decades, and it can be traced back to the famous "Glorious Revolution" of the Morning Star Empire.

The so-called "Glorious Revolution" took place more than 50 years ago.

The industrial revolution gave birth to the germination of ideas and the birth of a new class. The emerging forces of the Morning Star Empire were no longer satisfied with obeying the ancient feudal monarchy, submitting to the rule of the emperor and the suppression of the old nobles. The Glorious Revolution of the Monarchy.

The royal family and nobles who are in decline naturally do not want to be overturned to the ground and knock the dust off, but they cannot resist the tide of the times.

This war that swept across the entire Morningstar Empire was finally terminated by another bigger war—a war that spread to the whole world broke out suddenly, and the Morningstar Empire was also involved.

If it is a complete Morningstar Empire, there is still a chance to win the world war, but the Morningstar Empire itself is torn apart and still in internal struggle, it is just a piece of fat.

The external pressure temporarily relieved the fierce conflicts within the Morningstar Empire, and the royal family and nobles were able to breathe a sigh of relief.They use world wars to negotiate with emerging powers.

——If the revolutionaries are not willing to back down, they would rather drag the entire country into a swamp and die with the revolutionaries than surrender power.

This "backstab declaration" really achieved miraculous results!

If the feudal monarchy is banned and the emperor is dismounted, all they get is a country that is torn apart, and they have to face internal and external troubles at the same time, and are finally crushed by the wheels of the world war. Perhaps the entire empire will be destroyed in the flames of war. fly ash.It's better to take a step back.

The Glorious Revolution succeeded and failed.

——The last monarch of the feudal dynasty made the most humiliating choice, giving up most of the emperor's power, retaining only a small part of military power and the emperor's reputation;

The nobles also take a step back, retaining only the title of nobles but no real power, but they will select some outstanding elites to form a cabinet and share part of the country's rights;

Most of the power relinquished by the emperor and nobles belonged to all the people of the Morning Star Empire in name, and was handed over to outstanding representatives selected by the people.And these people formed the parliament.

——Three parties rule the empire together.

It is precisely because of the compromises and concessions of all parties that the Chenxin Empire was able to survive the crisis of the world war.But that incomplete glorious revolution also laid the groundwork for the power strife and infighting in the Morningstar Empire in the following decades.

The royal family and the cabinet are unwilling to share their own power with others, and the parliament is even more unwilling to give up the achievements of the Glorious Revolution.Even the royal family and the cabinet, once huddled under the blade of the Glorious Revolution, gradually split.

For decades, the three parties have been secretly fighting each other.

The response to the assassination case is just a microcosm of it.

Although the slain Sir Leonardo had an aristocratic background and should have belonged to the cabinet, but because of his royal blood and status as a royalist, he was more involved with the royal family.

And the organizer of the banquet in Beiyuan Building was also a member of the royal family.In other words, that banquet was originally a banquet organized by the royalist party.

Therefore, the loss of the royal family is the greatest. Not only did a member of the royalist party be damaged in the assassination, but it also lost face greatly.

In anger, the aging emperor immediately issued a first-level arrest warrant, mobilizing almost all available forces, and setting up a net to arrest the culprit.

Although the cabinet and parliament supported the actions of the royal family on the surface and condemned the evil deeds of the assassins with righteous words, they were perfunctory in their actions.

——They were more interested in gloating, attacking the royal family, and taking advantage of the opportunity than in catching assassins.

The long-maintained balance of the upper layers of the Morningstar Empire was almost broken by that sudden gunshot.

If the man is caught as soon as possible, perhaps this small disturbance will subside quickly, but this massive manhunt has not been successful, and the killer disappeared as if the world evaporated.

This made the royal family's situation even more embarrassing, except for incompetent rage, it was incompetent rage.

Some clues can be seen from the changing public opinion within the Morningstar Empire during this period of time.

When the assassination just happened, the reaction of public opinion was as follows:

[! ! !Tell me it's not "Prank Day"!In Beiyuan Building, a jazz was killed, is this a joke?Wasn't it crazy during the Glorious Revolution? ]

[The upstairs is really a genius, what he said is so reasonable!The Glorious Revolution never killed a single nobleman or royal family member.Let alone shooting in public.In this comparison, the assassin is really more powerful! ]

[Ah, this... I can't imagine such a terrible terrorist attack in our Morningstar Empire. What's going on with the cabinet, what's going on with the parliament, what's going on with the royal family, have all our taxpayers' money been paid in vain? ?Such an important place as the Beiyuan Building can let killers infiltrate, Jazz can be killed, can we ordinary people even have a sense of security? ]

[Don't worry, ordinary people are much safer than jazz, at least not in the eyes of assassins...]

[I have already bought a ticket to the Holy Federation overnight, and I will travel there for three months, and I will not come back in a short time. ]

[To be able to sneak into the Beiyuan Building to kill people and escape unscathed, there are hundreds of millions of murderers, powerful, the protagonist of the spy movie is nothing more than that?Curiosity was aroused. ]

[Am I the only one who wants to know the reason for the assassination? ]

Nervousness, fear, curiosity, dissatisfaction...everything is there.

Some people are dissatisfied with the government's response speed and inefficient capture mode, some people are curious about the murderer's audacity and recklessness, and some people think of themselves and feel fear, anxiety and tension.

But obviously, most people are still very calm, watching the progress of the matter with a mentality of eating melons, waiting for the murderer to be caught.

Over time, public opinion has changed.

I don't know who was the first to find out the background of the unknown lord, and then, one after another, people who knew him began to reveal what he did in the past.

For example, lust and lust oppress and occupy young maids; years of secretly lending usury money, causing many families to be ruined; addicted to gambling, through gambling, let those who want him deliberately lose in his hands, So they asked for bribes... All kinds of black materials were constantly exposed, and each piece was shocking.

And these righteous people who "pluck up the courage" to expose him are often a certain anonymous well-meaning person, a certain unknown servant who used to work in his home and bullied him with a mobile phone, and a certain someone was forced by him to ruin his family at a young age. The poor man whose relatives grew up hard, the upright young man who was asked for a bribe by him and was retaliated for refusing... All of a sudden, they changed from a passerby who didn't even have a name to a righteous hero!

For a while, the crowd was furious!

——From ancient times to the present, similar routines have been seen frequently, but they have repeatedly worked.Crowds are blind and conformist, and it is easy to stir them up.

However, the one-sided blackness is too low-end, and it is easy for people to see the clues. At this time, another group of rational passersby appeared.They voiced their doubts on behalf of the masses.

[...Is this black material too much?Think we all have no brains?As we all know, the title of nobility has long been used only for honor. How can he use his status as a nobleman to bully men and women and be so arrogant? ]

[That is, even accepting bribes came out.This Sir Leonardo has no official position, can he be bribed with empty teeth just by virtue of his title of empty nobleman?Make up nonsense and make it real. ]

[...It makes sense.I don't think these black materials are believable. ]

[It’s another set of deliberate smearing and fooling the public, we will not be fooled. ]

A wave of analysis by the Party of Reason awakened the incited crowd from their anger and began to question the authenticity of the black material. At the same time, the smart ones felt that they had grasped the truth.

Then came the real fatal blow.

[One thing to say, I am a down-and-out nobleman, except for a noble title, I really have nothing.But this Sir Leonardo is quite different. He has a noble blood of the royal family, and has always been proud of his royal blood. He is the most staunch supporter of His Majesty the Emperor. ]

[Hiss... I seem to understand something. ]

[Understood. ]

[Buying men and women, accepting bribes, no wonder, I said, where did the short nobles get their power, it turns out that there is someone behind them... Hiss, don't say it, don't say it. ]

[Is there anything not to say?It's just a corrupt royal family that should have been overthrown more than 50 years ago.Sure enough, even after so many years, it's only worse than before. ]

[... Upstairs, you are really brave. ]

[The Morning Star Empire belongs to all the citizens of the Morning Star Empire, it is not ruled by one person.As a law-abiding tax-paying citizen, what is there to say about the royal family's filth?If I suffer retaliation because of this, wouldn't it further prove the decadent autocracy of the royal family?People, times have changed! ]

So far, see you in the picture!

The public opinion of the Morning Star Empire has undergone earth-shaking changes, and countless people are pointing their guns at the big man who sits on the throne.

Over the years, the voice of the Morning Star Empire to completely abolish the monarchy has never stopped. However, the royal family that was almost overthrown learned the lessons from the past. good image.And now, the mask that has been painted over the years seems to be crumbling.

In a short period of time, with Sir Leonardo as the introduction, all kinds of scandals about members of the Morningstar Empire royal family were exposed, triggering quite a big earthquake in the Morningstar Empire.

At this time, no one paid any attention to the assassin.

[Disappointed, so disappointed.Is this the royal family of our Morning Star Empire?Is this the man who is fed by all our taxpayers and runs 1/3 of the power in the Morningstar Empire? ]

[The upstairs is too naive, do you still have any illusions about the emperor?Creatures like emperors and classes like the royal family should have been swept into the trash can of the old era long ago. ]

Radicals who advocated the abolition of the imperial system also began to speak out, occupying the high ground of public opinion along the way.

[Those who have done evil deeds deserve revenge.This assassination, I can only say that it was well done! ]

[Dogs can't change eating shit.The existence of the emperor is the oppression of each of us, no matter how beautiful the disguise is.Now the facts only prove it. ]

[...It may be difficult to abolish the imperial system temporarily, but it is time to limit the power of the royal family members, gentlemen! ]

This vigorous public opinion war started from the assassination case and broke out at the end, with the guns pointed at the royal family within one day.Everyone's attention shifted from the assassination case to the decay of the imperial family and the restrictions on imperial power.

It took a lot of energy and all the attention to catch the imperial family on the assassin, and it can be said that they were caught off guard and hit it.

Even if they react quickly and take corresponding measures, such as claiming that they will strictly investigate all black materials, they will not tolerate it, such as severely punishing those who have convincing evidence of crimes, and the relevant responsible persons will be accused of negligence, encouraging all The public reported and so on, but in the face of this wave of sudden attacks, after all, they made a hasty move and were a step behind the opponent.

Even if everything was dealt with temporarily in the end, it still left some undetectable traces in the hearts of the people of the Morning Star Empire.

——This is the embers left for the future.

The emperor, who was well aware of this, could only live with this dull loss, and he hated the guy who caused trouble in the dark even more.

As for the suspect, [-]% is Parliament.

The reason is also very simple.The aristocrats and the royal family are always inextricably linked. Although the cabinet also wants to seize power from the royal family, it does not want the emperor to step down and the monarchy to be abolished. Otherwise, their aristocratic status will lose its value.

But the suspicion of the cabinet cannot be completely ruled out.

After all, this wave of public opinion attacks only targeted the royal family and not the nobles. On the contrary, most of the nobles were described as pitiful with empty titles. It was hard to prevent the emperor from suspecting that the cabinet had meddled in order to weaken the emperor's power.

The complexity of the situation made the power struggle at the top of the Morning Star Empire more complicated and intense.

The one who benefited the most is naturally K.

The flames of public opinion in the Morningstar Empire had just subsided. The parliament, the cabinet, and the royal family had their own plans and opinions.Regarding this daring assassin, the disgraced royal family wanted to get rid of it quickly, but the parliament held back its legs in every possible way. It wished that this assassin would remain active forever, so that the royal family would be shamed, and the cabinet members would mess with it. Water acts as a fence.

In this way, how powerful is the so-called arresting net?For K, who possesses special abilities, to be caught by such a manhunt with mixed hearts is simply ridiculous in the world.

If it was an ordinary person, they would have lost it and took this opportunity to slip away and walk away.

But "K" was never average.

This "ghost that haunts rainy nights at any time", "an executioner who brings killing and bloodshed", "a pleasure criminal who is good at playing with people's hearts", has never been afraid of the net, but the stage is not big enough.

So, in the next period of time, the mysterious killer reappeared, and started the assassination in an open and aboveboard manner.

What rewarded him was the highest wanted reward in the Morning Star Empire, and his reputation spread throughout the world.

And the people killed by him will always expose all kinds of unbearable scandals on the Internet afterwards, and they will always be inextricably linked with the royal family, making people lament "a coincidence of fate".

At this time, even if the royal family comes forward to clarify, there will always be people who claim to be smart and think that the royal family is deliberately burying the truth.Although there are some black materials in this, it is really made up.

Even if he is an innocent and good person, he will be taken seriously if he is slandered a lot.What's more, the royal family of the Morning Star Empire is not so innocent, and there are countless scandals?

The serial killer [K], who has been investigated clearly by the whole world, including the rainy night serial murder case committed in Yao country, was portrayed as "" The image of "justice enforcer in the dark" somehow gained a lot of admirers and imitators.

His elusiveness, unattainable skill, and sniping against evil have added a layer of legend to him.

——The deeds that once happened in Yao Kingdom seem to be re-enacted in Morning Star Empire.

At this time, in order to avenge Adams, Yao Kingdom no longer followed the procedures step by step, but applied for an emergency channel, urging the Morningstar Empire to pass the documents for the transnational arrest as soon as possible.

This uncomplicated application got stuck due to internal disputes in the Morningstar Empire.

The beaten royal family saw an opportunity from Yao Kingdom's application, and tried to use Yao Kingdom's power to suppress the powerful parliament.

——Everything that happened in the Morning Star Empire, ordinary people are still confused, but the high-level leaders of various countries are very clear.

Everything is just a high-level game.

The war of public opinion is just the shallowest level of this game, and there are more and deeper confrontations happening where ordinary people can't see, and what is finally shown in public opinion is the outcome of both sides-the parliament wins a lot, and the royal family eats it It was not a small loss, but with the intervention of the cabinet, the cabinet got a little bit of a bargain, so that it was able to hold on to the basic market.

Because of this, they desperately want to find foreign aid and beat up the arrogant parliament, and they don't even care about the possible damage to their own interests.

"Support the royal family of the Morning Star Empire? Stand aside in the midst of the infighting? Make an alliance with the royal family alone? We can't agree..."

Everyone in Yao country was shocked.

Is it possible to rashly intervene in the politics of a country in order to catch a fugitive?

Could it be that the person who put forward this condition is whimsical?Lost your mind?

Although the star country royal family also gave other benefits.But it is obviously impossible for Yao country to go against its own principles and meddle in the politics of other countries.

They simply wondered if the Xingguo Emperor had lost his head.

Until I receive an explanation over there...

"So far, the people killed by K can be connected with the royal family, even if some connections are far-fetched. Not long after these people were killed, their black information can be exposed on the Internet in time... There is no doubt that this so-called killer is Targeting the royal family, behind him, there is a powerful force that helps him eliminate the threat from the royal family, and he follows the orders and guidance, targeting the royal family members, because the connection is so close, the cooperation can be seamless..."

"As for the power behind him, who exactly is it, I think everyone knows it well."

"—Obviously, this guy is the running dog of the council! Since you want to catch the dog, how can you not offend the dog's owner? Isn't it the best choice for us to cooperate with each other?"

I have to say that this remark makes sense.The premise is that K's true identity is not known.

And the detection department has too much right to speak.They have been secretly researching for a long time.

"...Based on our simulation of his personality, this visitor from another world has no sense of belonging to Zhanlan Star, and his nature is unrestricted. He will never become a running dog of the parliament. It is more likely that the two parties are in a cooperative relationship, each taking what he needs .”

"...To put it bluntly, it can also be said to be mutual use. The council needs someone who dares to trample on the rules and take action against the royal family of the Star Kingdom, and that visitor from another world came to this world with nothing, and now he urgently needs to settle down. .”

"—He needs a territory of his own, and needs local forces to shield him from the wind and rain of the outside world, and provide him with a period of time to develop silently and become familiar with the rules and order of this world... If you guessed right, this should be the basis for cooperation between the two parties."

After analyzing this, it is almost clear.

Li Fufeng rubbed his chin, and expressed his inference: "—I don't know what kind of cooperation conditions he and the council have reached. The council thinks this guy is just a knife to deal with the royal family temporarily, and maybe there is still a way to tame him Even if they can't tame their own thoughts, they are confident that they will destroy this knife in the future."

Speaking of this, he sighed: "Unfortunately, they will probably regret their current decision in the future. I have a hunch that that guy will do even more earth-shattering things in the future."

"...if we don't catch him in time."

Everyone's hearts sank together.

"Looking at it now, it's already very difficult."

With the council involved, things have become very troublesome, unless they expose the identity of the other party's visitor from another world.But in this way, it will be even more impossible for the Morning Star Empire to let people fall into their hands.

Everything seems to have formed a dead knot.

Thinking that K was the cause of everything, everyone couldn't help feeling dizzy.It seems to have returned to the time when the city was full of wind and rain, and the murderer was searched all night.

It seems that this will be a task that will take a long time to complete.

Now, we can only send out the wanted first.

"This guy is really difficult!"
