Looking at the lost Sebastian Shuijing in front of him, Bishop Benjamin felt a little guilty.
Could it be that Sebastian discovered his affair with Tilly?
No, that's not right.
He and Tilly haven't contacted each other for a week, and he doesn't know what she has been doing recently.
Moreover, the man Sebastian saw having an affair with his wife yesterday afternoon was not him either.
So Bishop Benjamin asked cautiously: "Your Excellency, Baron, who is the man who is having an affair with your wife?"
"Yes..." Sebastian wanted to answer, but when the words came to his lips, he did not say them out. He just lowered his head and covered his face in despair.
…
Seeing Sebastian's painful expression, Bishop Benjamin nodded and made a quick judgment in his mind.
First of all, Sebastian is a slave trader, and his family is very powerful. There are no more than ten people who can put a hat on Sebastian and make him unable to resist.
Remove the women among these ten people, remove yourself, and remove the non-water nobles (if a non-water noble commits the crime, Sebastian is more likely to go to the Earl of the River to reason instead of coming to him), and there are only two people left.
, Lucas and the River Earls.
Lucas was busy making a breakthrough last night and had no time to commit the crime, so the man who fell in love with Sebastian could only be the Earl of River.
...
After the analysis, Bishop Benjamin coughed twice and said: "Your Excellency, Baron, I have a good way to solve your current problem."
"What a good idea?!"
Sebastian stood up hurriedly and asked, like a drowning man catching a floating board.
"Sit down and let's talk slowly." Bishop Benjamin comforted him: "If you had to treat this matter as false, you wouldn't be so persistent."
"...Think it's fake?"
Sebastian was sitting down on the chair, and when he heard Bishop Benjamin's words, he almost lost his seat and fell to the ground.
"That's right!"
Bishop Benjamin stood up, put his hands on the case, and looked down at Sebastian: "What you saw yesterday afternoon was all an illusion. Your wife is a fake! The river... is wrong, and that man is also a fake! Go to sleep.
?It’s even more fake!
If something is true, you will be happy; if it is false, you will be happy. If it is false, it will be OK."
"Is this...really useful?" Sebastian looked at Bishop Benjamin weakly.
"Of course it works!"
Bishop Benjamin nodded and affirmed: "Take the gold coins in your pocket as an example. Has anyone used these gold coins before?"
"Of course... these gold coins have changed hands countless times." Sebastian replied hesitantly.
"Others have used your gold coins, why don't you still use them? It's the same with your wife. Others have used them, so you just keep using them." Bishop Benjamin smiled kindly.
"What you said makes sense! Thank you for your enlightenment!"
Sebastian realized something and bowed to Bishop Benjamin.
"Just look away! There are many people waiting behind you, next one!" Bishop Benjamin shouted towards the door.
"Goodbye, Lord Bishop." Sebastian looked at Bishop Benjamin with reverence and left the inquiry room with satisfaction.
...
After Sebastian left, the sixth nobleman walked in: "Master Bishop, His Highness Sean's soul can enter the kingdom of the God of Light. Did you know?"
Bishop Benjamin: “…”
...
...
While Sebastian was consulting on emotional issues, Sean's carriage also arrived at York Street smoothly.
But the strange thing is that the carriage was forced to stop before it reached the door of the store, and various noisy sounds continued to come from the window.
"Wendsor, what's going on outside?" Sean asked Windsor who was driving the carriage.
"Sir, our shop has been surrounded by people from three floors inside and three outside." Windsor replied: "But these people are just customers or just joining in the fun, they don't have any malicious intentions."
"No!" Sean was surprised: "It's not even 8 o'clock yet, and there are still two hours before the door opens. Why are there so many people?"
Sean stuck his head out of the car window and looked outside, and found that there were indeed many people gathered at the entrance of the luxury store.
Among these people were nobles, servants of nobles, stewards, subordinates and a small number of civilians. At this time, everyone was discussing something non-stop.
"It shouldn't be!" Sean said to Windsor: "Our products are expensive, and very few people can spend money to buy them. Even if most of them are just spectators, there shouldn't be so many people!"
"Who knows? Maybe your propaganda has won the hearts of the people!" Windsor shrugged indifferently.
"It doesn't feel right, Windsor, let's go over and have a look. Henry, please park the carriage in the backyard later," Sean ordered.
"Yes, sir!" Henry replied.
...
Sean got off the carriage and walked towards the crowd in front of the store with Windsor.
As soon as he reached the outskirts of the crowd, Sean immediately saw a familiar figure and greeted: "Sofia, why are you here so early?"
Sophia arrived at the door of the store early, and there were twenty or thirty mercenaries from the Flame Cross Mercenary Group standing beside her. They were recruited by her to increase Sean's popularity.
Hearing Sean's voice, Sophia glanced behind her in disbelief, and then ran towards Sean quickly.
At the same time, she was also greeting Sean: "Good morning, His Highness Sean! We came here early this morning!"
Hearing the word "Your Highness Sean" in Sophia's words, the volume of the crowd's discussion suddenly became much lower, and everyone turned to look at Sean.
Sean ignored the crowd of onlookers in front of the store. When Sophia came to his side, he stretched out his hand and rubbed Sophia's head affectionately: "Sofia, who else are you talking about 'you'?"
As he spoke, Sean looked behind Sophia.
"There are also members of our mercenary group!" Sophia introduced to Sean sideways: "This is our deputy leader Charlie, and these are the members of our mercenary group."
"Hello! Your Highness Sean!" Deputy Captain Charlie and the members of the Flame Cross Mercenary Group saluted Sean.
"Hello everyone!" Sean nodded to everyone in the mercenary group, and then said to Sophia:
"Sofia, there is no need for you to bring so many members here. The products in the store are relatively expensive and are mainly for nobles. You may not need these things."
"No, Your Highness Sean." Sofia blushed and said sheepishly: "I was just afraid that no one would come to your business on the first day, so I brought everyone here to increase your popularity. I didn't expect there to be so many people.
."
Sean wiped his sweat: "Thank you very much, Sophia. Let the members go back. I will give your mercenary group a thank you gift later."
