Inquisitor's Melancholy

"It's really like a sentence in court. I have a feeling that I will be sentenced to death in the next moment."

Not only the heads of the time government in the upper seat, but even the god judges from the country on the side were looking at Lixian with scrutinizing and probing eyes.

For this black-haired and black-eyed Chinese, they showed more curiosity than hostility, which made Lixian relax a bit, but the situation ahead was still not optimistic.

Lixian doesn't know how far the Government of Time is investigating Sasaki Kojiro. If it is just to determine that Sasaki Kojiro is not human, Lixian still has a way to deal with it. Sasaki Kojiro, who has been in contact with himself, will probably become the key monitoring target of the Toki Government.

The government of time and the retrograde army of time, the god judge and the historical revisionists are completely opposite existences, just like black and white, yin and yang, this boundary must never be crossed.

In order to take the overall situation into consideration, the Shizhi government probably would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. Li Xian is not worried that they will remove their positions as god judges, but those innocent men with swords and swords will be killed by other god judges. Li Xian couldn't accept whether to take over or destroy it with a knife.

But if he explained that he was innocent, Li Xian couldn't come up with conclusive evidence. It was a fact that the time retrograde army took Sasaki Kojiro away from the Honmaru.

Even Lixian himself didn't know why the time-traveling army could come to his Honmaru, and what was even more frightening was that he had no sense at all.

what on earth is it?

As if seeing Li Xian's anxiety, You Zhu lightly touched his milk tea cup, signaling to Li Xian not to drink it, the milk tea would turn into herbal tea.Unlike Li Xian, You Zhu acted very calmly, "If this is a court, then I will be your defense lawyer, and I will protect your life."

You Zhu, who is an elite cadre of the honorific department, even made a joke, and stopped using honorifics to Li Xian, Li Xian didn't find it abrupt, but he couldn't help laughing.

Mr. You Zhu should be that kind of person. Even though he seems to be working for the government of the time in a well-regulated way, he is a bit rigid in a standard black and white formal suit, but he is arrogant and unruly in his bones.Li Xian sometimes even wonders why Mr. Youzhu became a government employee?He should be fit for a more... freelance job.

There was no time for Li Xian to think too much, the people on the stage came together, and the interrogator meeting officially started.

"God Judge Li Xian."

Hearing his name, Lixian put down the milk tea in his hand, blinked slowly, and when he opened it again, his jet-black eyes contained a beautiful light, as if he had been sucked into a deep pool at first glance.Under this pressure, the elders in the upper seat were stunned for a moment. Such resolute eyes are rarely seen nowadays.

"Yes, I am."

Li Xian stood up straight, the huge light hit his chest, and dragged a long and narrow shadow behind him.

He had already attracted attention because he was a divine examiner from a foreign country, and because he was first called by the elders, now everyone's eyes were on Li Xian.

It turns out that there are still such god judges.

Even though they are both the god judges hired by the government of the time, there are not many opportunities for them to communicate. Except for the occasional swordsman competition between two Honmaru men on the training ground to measure their strength, the only way to judge the gods is to judge the gods. We will meet at the conference.

There are many God-inspectors on the job, so the God-inspectors invited by the God-inspector meeting are selective.

They were the first batch of God-inspectors, and they were also the ones with the most experience in battle.So far, they have fought countless battles with the time retrograde army. In this tug-of-war about protecting history, they are pioneers and explorers. Therefore, when the government of time faces events that they cannot understand with common sense, , in order to seek the right direction, their opinions will also be sought.

Could it be that something serious happened this time that even the Shizhi government couldn't make a decision?

And is it related to this foreign god judge?

"Li Xian, this time I called you because of Sasaki Kojiro. What do you think about the survival of that swordsman who should have been annihilated in history long ago?"

As soon as the elders said these words, it caused an uproar among the god judges below.

"What? Is that Kojiro?"

"How is it possible for historical figures to live in this world? Could it be that history has changed?"

……

Discussions were endless, Li Xian glanced at You Zhu with his eyes down, he seemed to have known about it a long time ago, he was still biting the straw of milk tea indifferently, just swept it away, Li Xian looked at the elders again, calmly Opened the mouth: "Whether it is through the induction of the god judge or the survey of the government of time, there has been no change in history. This is the only thing that can be clarified at present. According to the trajectory of history, Sasaki Kojiro should have been involved in the battle of Yanliu Island." Died, if this is the case, if Sasaki Kojiro who is alive now is not resurrected from death, or someone else."

As Li Xian's voice sounded, the hall became quiet, and everyone was listening intently to Li Xian's words.Indeed, as judges who maintain history, they will feel it if history changes. After all, this is a serious dereliction of duty in their work.

But the news that Sasaki Kojiro is still alive, they only heard about it today, the biggest possibility is the same name and surname, right?However, according to the style of the government of the time, which has always acted cautiously, it should not make such low-level mistakes.

As for Li Xian's resurrection from the dead, it is also possible.

There are loopholes in history. For example, Oda Nobunaga committed suicide during the Honnoji Incident in Kyoto, but the body of Oda Nobunaga could not be found afterwards. If he died, he followed the development of history, but if he did not die, As long as you don't continue to live in the name of "Oda Nobunaga" who almost won the world, it has no effect on history.

Therefore, if Sasaki Kojiro only gave people the illusion of death in the battle of Yanliu Island, and then he survived in obscurity, it is also possible.

But no matter what, it is impossible for a human being to live for such a long time.

Where did the deviation occur?

"After our investigation, it was confirmed that Sasaki Kojiro is indeed a historical figure. Rei Xian, I am sorry that I gave him to you in order to buy enough time to investigate the identity of Sasaki Kojiro. Where is Sasaki Kojiro now? Honmaru?"

The elders' further inquiries made Li Xian narrow his eyes, and then he replied calmly: "No, I have no right to restrict Sasaki Kojiro's freedom."

"Don't you want to cover him? Didn't you say that Sasaki Kojiro is your lover? In fact, you have known each other for a long time, right?"

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a short stature and average appearance. As soon as he opened his mouth, the originally quiet environment around him became noisy again.

lover?two men?

That's all, but it's terrible to get to the bottom of the reason.

It is not impossible for a historical figure to travel through time and live to the present with the help of the power of the god judge.But this is contrary to the meaning of protecting history. To put it seriously, the abuse of power by the judges is very likely to cause changes in history.Then, the guardian of history will also become the destroyer of history.

God judges are not gods, they are human beings, and human beings always make mistakes.

There have been examples of this in the past.

Because the god judges accompany the swordsmen in battle, they will inevitably come into contact with historical figures of the corresponding era, many of whom have great charm, and love or pity will arise from this.

In order for them to avoid the tragic fate in history, the judges may make wrong judgments and try to let them escape the imprisonment of history, but these are in vain.As a god judge, one should be most aware that history cannot be changed. If one crosses this line, both the past and the future will be pushed into the abyss.

Well-trained god judges will not try to reshape the fate of historical figures. They understand that the more they cherish each other, the more they should protect their history and not allow anyone to desecrate it.

But it hasn't been long since the judge should have been in charge, right?Inexperienced and immature, he is at the age of being easily emotional and impulsive. It is understandable to make such a mistake, but it must not be forgiven.

Doesn't he know how much impact that Kojiro will have if he lives in this world?

In an instant, everyone's eyes on Li Xian changed.

Li Xian snorted coldly, and suddenly raised a sarcastic smile.

No matter how good an organization is, there will always be a few unreasonable wastes that hinder the progress. If these wastes are not resolved, then the entire organization will be affected.

Li Xian stared straight at the middle-aged man, until seeing his aggressive posture became a little fearful, Li Xian moved his lips, and when he was about to explain himself, a sentence that did not match the atmosphere of the scene was slightly abrupt into his ears.

"Eh? Master Rexian's lover, then I'm really curious who is the person who can make Master Rexian fall in love with you."

You Zhu doesn't care at all about the fact that historical figures have lived to this day, but instead cares about Li Xian's love affair.

He accurately threw the milk tea cup he had drunk into the trash can not far from them, then stood up with his hands in his pockets, looked around, and finally landed on the middle-aged man who had just questioned Li Xian .

"Hey, Baldhead, during my business trip, it was your idea to introduce Sasaki Kojiro to my honorable God Judge, right?"

"Then...that's because Sasaki Kojiro said that he likes Reisian, doesn't that mean that he...they knew each other from the beginning?" Facing You Zhu's questioning, the middle-aged man began to stammer.

"Oh? That's what you're thinking of pouring dirty water on Mr. Li Xian. I understand. If the time-traveling army knows that there are such stupid people in the government of time, then they don't need to go through the battle again. Instead, confess directly to the god judges, can't you touch porcelain and use the hands of the government of the time to solve these god judges?"

You Zhu's words were like pebbles falling into the calm water, which not only surprised the judges, but also caused ripples in Li Xian's heart.

He moved his eyes back and landed on You Zhu's face, there was an indifferent smile on that handsome face, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Recalling You Zhu's attitude in detail before, Li Xian couldn't help wondering if You Zhu knew that Sasaki Kojiro had a connection with the Time Traveling Army before he deliberately said such a thing.

But how did he learn about things that even the government of the time couldn't investigate?

Lixian felt that these doubts were like a pile of scattered fragments, waiting to be pieced together to reveal the truth, but he didn't know where the last fragment was?

The author has something to say:

There is a little brain hole, Sasaki Kojiro has survived in history, in order to hide his identity, so he had to wear a small vest, one of the vests is Okita Souji, so Okita Souji is known as a genius swordsman, and he did not pass away due to illness Instead, his true identity was discovered, so he had to play dead and change into a new vest. (A brain hole that has nothing to do with the text and history~Finally confess to Souji Okita!...Slip~)
