Public trial?You deserve it too!

【it is good. 】

"Then the first question, before I said those words to Siegfried, what was the situation in the province of Provence in the eyes of the Imperial Intelligence Bureau at that time?"

[From top to bottom, it has been thoroughly infiltrated by the Theocracy, and there are traitors everywhere. Currently, the governor and the Lavender Knights have been convicted. They are all believed to have completely surrendered to the Theocracy. 】

"Okay, the second question, before the provincial rebellion, whose territory was it defaulted to?"

[...The Great Prince Augustus. 】

"Yes, and unlike nobles who are hereditary in the local area, the governor is appointed by the central government. This matter is controlled by the eldest prince, and the third question comes with it. Do you think the Imperial Intelligence Bureau dares to rely on In the current situation, why don't you go and check on the First Prince?"

[No, they didn’t even dare to report to His Majesty the Emperor, at least until they got the exact evidence, any words might bring Siegfried who was in charge of this matter to death.And the most crucial issue is that the eldest prince has already compromised a knight order that was loyal to him for this, which can completely help him get rid of the relationship, and it can be regarded as a vote...]

The corner of Claude's mouth slid up coldly.

"It seems that you have discovered the problem."

[...There are only two explanations for this matter. Either His Royal Highness was really ignorant and was deceived by the Governor of Provence Province, so the entire army of the Front Rock Knights was wiped out without investigation; He knew that the province of Provence was infiltrated by the Theocracy, so he immediately grabbed the task of countering the rebellion, and then deliberately sent out the knight order, using such a loss to clear himself of suspicion. 】

"Bingo, now comes the fourth question. How would Siegfried choose? Should he investigate the two possibilities at the same time, or should he just kill the second possibility, decide on the result first, and then look for evidence? "

【It can only be... first make sure that the eldest prince was deceived in this matter, and then look for evidence to set aside the relationship. 】

"Okay, then under such a situation, please tell me that if he wants to find a logical evidence to prove that a man as wise and powerful as the eldest prince Augustus has been deceived for so long, he What kind of evidence will you choose? Is it simply because of the 'political donation' made by the Governor of Provence every year, or is it the second payment that was handed over in private?"

[...These are not enough, so it is only possible that the nobles of the entire province were involved, they formed a huge black hand, covered the eyes of the First Prince, helped the spies of the Church to lurk, and in this rebellion Otherwise, such a rebellion would not be able to achieve such an effect anyway-because no one believes in your existence, and you have your means!This fact was even more absurd than the most unlikely reason they could imagine! 】

"Thank you for the compliment. Your compliments are very nice. You can add more. I like it."

Claude was still lying comfortably on the bed.

"Next, everything will go smoothly. Mr. Siegfried will find that this reason is so reasonable, because this reason can also explain why the Imperial Intelligence Bureau has made such mistakes in this incident. Level. It’s not that they are too useless, nor that they underestimate the enemy, but that this is the enemy’s territory at all!”

[So he will take the initiative to kill the relationship between these nobles and the Holy Kingdom, whether it is out of fear that the eldest prince may be involved in this matter, or out of the reason of helping the Imperial Intelligence Bureau win a decent reason, he only has this The only way, so he can't let these people live because of emotion and reason. 】

"That's why, the rebellion in the province of Provence and the petty actions of the ecclesiastical state will put a complete stop on the corpses of these nobles, because Siegfried can no longer investigate, and he dare not Check it out, this matter must come to an end."

【…】

"How? Now you understand why I took the initiative to say those words?" Claude opened his eyes and looked towards the ceiling.

"Because this matter is doomed, it's just that I lacked a reason to explain it before, now that Major General Manduffel has given me an explanation, then use it to please this senior intelligence officer who already has a good impression of me , is a perfect waste utilization.”

The Wind Rises on Europa: Chapter 74 Chapter 72 A Seed

【You really want to do this? 】

"Could it be that you have other ways?"

Claude held a dagger in his hand, and looked at himself in the mirror with a black blindfold on his left eye with a slightly tangled look.

"People's eyes will always fall on the place where they are used to, but if there is something abrupt in the vicinity, it will definitely attract his attention. Only when the old emperor and I look at each other a little With a little distraction, I'm sure I can get away with it."

【Well, you don't have to worry about scars, your physical healing ability is enough to heal wounds without scars. 】

Claude froze for a moment, then his face collapsed.

"...Let me just ask, generally speaking, the healing time for such scars should be relatively long, right? Then with my physical quality, it will take about a few days to recover?"

[This kind of skin trauma, one day, the kind that doesn't even have a scar, if you cut too thin and shallow, it may heal almost as soon as you wipe off the blood. 】

"……day!"

Claude is numb.

"That is to say, I have to get up a little earlier every day, give myself a deeper knife on my face, and then wait for the scab to appear in front of other people. When I go to bed at night, the scar will completely disappear, and then repeat the cycle until Have you met the emperor?"

【That's why I ask you, do you really want to do this? 】

"Do!"

The boy sighed helplessly.

"Christina, wait for me..."

While thinking about it, he took off the blindfold, picked up the dagger, and hesitantly began to gesticulate on his face.

【If you don't want to do it, maybe we can come up with something else...】

"Oh, it's not that I can't do it, I just want to see if how to use the knife will not affect my image, because my face is too tender, this knife scar should help me add a bit of murderousness or a sense of vicissitudes, This will be more conducive for me to finish what I want to say in front of the emperor."

[Do you want to squeeze the surplus value even for this kind of thing! 】

--------------------------------------

"Mr. Siegfried! Mr. Siegfried!"

The man raised his head and looked suspiciously towards the place where the voice came from.

"Is it Knight Claude? I heard that you led your knight brigade to go south to clean up the remnants of the rebels. Why did you come back so soon?" Siegfried was a little surprised, "And your face... ..."

"Because I was a little too hasty during the battle, I was negligent for a while, but I didn't hurt my eyes, but even if I did, it's still a good deal to get this item."

The boy showed a somewhat excited expression, and handed a booklet to Siegfried.

"This is... the intelligence network in the southern port area of ​​the province!"

The lieutenant colonel also showed an excited expression.

"Yes, we found that the enemy's will to fight was extremely tenacious in an encounter, so I realized that there must be some secret in it, so when we fought, I was a little impatient, so I was hacked by the opponent."

Claude touched his scar subconsciously.

"However, when I snatched this item, I didn't know what it was, but after I got this item, I knew it must be something very important!"

Claude took out something from his arms and handed it to Siegfried in the palm of his hand. It was a shining silver cross of the Theocracy, which is usually only obtained by people with missions. certificate.

"Silver Cross... No wonder there is only a list for the southern region. This guy is not the person in charge." Although Siegfried said so, he was obviously satisfied with the list. He picked up the cross and carefully Scrutinize. "It seems that the golden cross should be in the hands of the deputy head of the Lavender Knights who disappeared, and the general list should also be there... But this is very rare!"

Siegfried turned his head to look at Claude, feeling a little emotional in his heart. Before Ludwig said that Claude was a knight with good luck, he was skeptical. He didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing again, although it was just Part of the list, but with this, you can more or less follow the vines and dismantle the Theocracy's spy network in Provence Province.

"I didn't expect you to be a lucky general, Knight Claude."

The boy froze for a moment, obviously not realizing what he was talking about.

"Leave this thing to me, don't worry, I will tell His Highness about your achievements."

"Oh, yes, thank you, Mr. Siegfried."

Claude obviously didn't think about whether the other party meant to take credit for himself, but he didn't leave, but showed a trace of hesitation on his face, as if he wanted to ask something, and looked a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Siegfried was a little surprised.

"It's not...that's, that, I want to ask, can this credit help Knight Gorman get a fief? There are many soldiers under his command who can no longer fight because of injuries and age, so Taking them south this time is also for this reason, after all, he is not from the empire."

Claude obviously looked like he was suppressing his shame, and when he asked this question, Siegfried amused him.

"It's not shameful to ask about the size of your credit, Knight Claude." The man smiled and waved his hand, "But it should be your credit, right? Take the lead in snatching back this list, the knife on the face, I believe You won’t be as understated as you said, right? Is it just to give away the military exploits gained with your life?”

"I'm sure of that knife, and there will be no accidents, so it's not a fight." Claude shook his head, "And there are quite a few opponents. If it weren't for the Gorman Knight, they would have fought to the death. It is impossible to fall into our hands intact, this is everyone's credit."

The boy paused, revealing an innocent smile.

"If you count me in, maybe more credit will be given to me? After all, I am a knight of the empire, and I am still under the command of His Royal Highness Ludwig. In this way, the wish of Knight Gorman may not be realized. If not, those knights don’t know how long they will continue to drift like rootless duckweed in this world that has lost their homeland.”

"I think, if one day I can no longer go to the battlefield, what I want is just a piece of land that I can live on, and my chief is desperately rushing to the battlefield just to complete this shouldn't be done. For the responsibility he bears, I will definitely hope that there is someone who can help my chief so that he will no longer suffer from this hardship and hardship."

Siegfried fell silent, and the smile on his face disappeared.He looked at Claude's face until the teenager's expression changed from a smile to confusion.

"Knight Claude, sometimes, your kindness will not be exchanged for the same kindness, but will only be used and ridiculed."

"I know, but I don't care."

Claude shook his head slightly.

"I just want to follow the decision made by my heart. This is the oath I made after I decided to become a knight."

Siegfried laughed dumbfounded.

"Heart...?"

He turned around and waved.

"Don't worry, Knight Claude, I will make your wish come true."

"Uh...it's not my wish, it should be the wish of Gorman Knight..."

The boy muttered twice, and then saluted Siegfried's back as if he had let go of some burden.

"Thank you, Your Excellency Siegfried!"

The figure of the man disappeared into the tent.

"Then I'd better go back as soon as possible, Gorman and the others are still repairing,"

Claude turned around and wanted to leave, but he didn't expect to meet Lina on the road.

"Knight Claude!" The girl looked at him in surprise, and immediately saw his scars.

"You are hurt!"

Lina ran over almost in a panic, and stretched out her hand to touch Claude's face, but he subconsciously avoided it.

Only then did the girl realize that her behavior seemed too presumptuous, she retracted her fingertips at a loss, her face looked a little downcast, but was soon overshadowed by the look of concern.

"That wound... are you okay, Claude?"

"This? It's just a small injury. I was a little careless in the previous battle, but don't worry, I didn't hurt my eyes, and it will recover after a while."

The boy poked his own scar with a smile, with a nonchalant expression.

"How about it, does it look like a man? Scars are men's medals. I think the medals are also good on the face."

"You look good no matter what you look like."

Lina said subconsciously.

"Oh, uh, thank you." Claude put down his hand in embarrassment.

The girl's face turned red, and she felt as if she had worn too many clothes today, and her body temperature was a little high.

"That, that, I want to say... I'm sorry, uh, no! Thank you!" The girl said incoherently, then looked at the scar subconsciously, and lowered her head in frustration. "……sorry."

Claude scratched his head, what's wrong?

"I've already heard from Uncle Adelin that you went south to fight in such a hurry to give those Wallachia knights who can no longer fight a home, right? And this wound... ..."

The girl was in a state of disarray at this moment. From her heart, she very much hoped that Gorman's plan would succeed.These knights are the most loyal people in Wallachia, but as the real owner of that land, he can't even give these people a place to live. Claude is going back and forth for this matter, she Of course I am grateful.

But as a girl's little selfishness, she doesn't want to see Claude like this. Since the other party met her, it has been because of her own reasons that Claude had to roll in the bloody storm again and again. From the first meeting The imperial capital was attacked at night, and this trip to the province of Provence was a narrow escape.

Originally, Lina came here with the intention of dying, because she knew that the Wallachia incident might cause a lot of trouble, and as long as she died, there would be no more accidents .She wants to see her own people for the last time, and then die publicly, to put an end to all the wandering Wallachians, and tell them that they can live for themselves safely from now on.

But Claude insisted on chasing him.

Obviously, she had made up her mind a long time ago that she was going to die here, but when the young man was tired, but forced himself to smile and said "We are friends", she didn't want to die anymore, she wanted to live, I want to be friends with Claude all the time, and I even want to go one step further...

Afterwards, things took a turn for the worse. She met these loyal knights who never forgot their hometown, and His Royal Highness Ludwig was also willing to take in all the homeless people, and even promised to allow them to serve the girl in the future.

The two joys overlap each other, but this double joy brings more joy. This should be a dreamlike happy time——

But the girl woke up after seeing the scar on Claude's face.

She recalled her identity again. Dragurina is not an ordinary girl who can enjoy love, but a subjugated princess who bears the hatred of the country and the family.

Anyone who has a relationship with her is unlikely to end well.

"I'm sorry, Knight Claude, because of me, I put you in such a dangerous situation, but I am still shamelessly enjoying the peaceful life that you and the knights fought for me... Everyone, everyone has infinite love for me. Your tolerance and love, but I—”

The girl covered her face.

"I'm a useless vase that can't do anything—"

The girl cried bitterly in front of the boy, while the boy was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to do.

However, such a scene is indeed very eye-catching, and many people looked over with curious eyes.

"Miss Lina, offended."

Claude quickly picked up the girl, and then rushed out with majestic momentum.It wasn't until a secluded corner that he breathed a sigh of relief and put the crying girl down.

"Lina, Lina? Listen to me, don't put so much pressure on yourself, believe me, whether it's Mr. Adelin or Ms. Eleno, or Gorman and his knights, there is no People put the burden of restoring the country on your shoulders."
