7. Coffee Rain Lullaby (14)

"Why do you suspect that Baron Rice is 'Jack the Ripper'? There are many people who meet the criteria for suspicion, and there are also many who are more qualified than the Baron."

Minerva asked dissatisfiedly. She could have taken advantage of the troublesome people to leave and sneak back to the dormitory, but now she was sitting in an unlit carriage carriage, tailgating her classmates and class teacher, and...

"Your Highness, what you want to ask is, 'Why is Company VE so keen on Jack the Ripper?'"

An extremely calm laugh came from the seat opposite, clear and smooth, with some kind of persuasive magic residing in it.

The speaker is a woman in a black knight costume. Even in front of a king's daughter, the red-haired woman is not timid and extremely confident in expressing her opinions.[

In a certain sense, she can be said to be a witch—Salome.

According to Nidhogg, she is the spokesperson of the company's president. When Li Lin is away, she exercises the power of the president on her behalf. The person who manages Luders' company headquarters, Nidhogg, who is the vice president, also gives her instructions.

There must be no objection.

Salome, who holds this privilege, speaks on behalf of Ve Company and Li Lin's will. Minerva had to brace herself and deal with it carefully.

"The investigation and handling of public security cases are the responsibility of state agencies. I don't remember asking ve company to intervene on my behalf."

The economy and politics of this country have been infiltrated by VE Corporation, but it is far from the point where VE Corporation needs to be involved in everything. Public security and law are not needed.

If you have to use ve company to catch a thief, then the so-called country is in name only.

"Our company has no intention of offending the law and royal authority. We just want to ensure the safety of the president's heir while minimizing the scope of influence."

A seemingly impeccable answer.

Jack the Ripper - a crazy murderer whose appearance and age are unknown. He committed multiple murders in a row, dismembered the remains of his victims and took away some of them.

Its characteristics are: an excellent dual-system magician, good at dismembering corpses with a knife, and likes to find healthy boys to attack.

Baron Gilles de Rais, who teaches manipulation and strengthens two types of magic, only partially meets the above characteristics, and is not the one with the greatest suspicion. But he is suspected, and he is also Roland's class teacher. This becomes ve

This is an issue that companies must pay attention to.

The only heir to that super capital empire right now is Roland. No one wants anything to happen to him.

——It’s just that the gap between actions and reasons seems to be so big that even a blind person can’t hide it, which is really unflattering.

"For this reason, you don't hesitate to let the person you are supposed to protect directly contact the target, even if you put yourself in danger?"

After uncovering the biggest flaw in the logic, Minerva snorted coldly.

"Your Highness, the Baron is just a suspect. There is not enough evidence to prove that he is 'Jack'. Our purpose is just to eliminate the suspicion, not to steal the jobs of the vigilante knights. As for the security issue... the kingdom's 'government' is more concerned about coming to the capital than anyone else.

The personal safety of Master Roland, who is studying magic in the City of Goodness."

Choking on the meaningful thorns in her words, the princess finally fell silent. Gloria, who smelled something was wrong in the atmosphere, subconsciously wanted to "knead" her temples. Then she remembered that she was by the side of a His Highness.

, any unauthorized rude behavior is not allowed. Without Salome's bohemian "character" and capital, the girl knight sat in her seat, slowly accumulating pressure.

Originally, Salomé planned to tell them the opinions of the legal team on handling similar issues - such as when her workers were suspected of organizing a union. Chief lawyer Francois Robespierre suggested that more guillotines be produced and that they need to review whether they are trying to organize a union.

, "Execute immediately as long as there is suspicion". Legal advisor Adolphe Thiers recommends spending money

Hire a team of soldiers to pull out the dissatisfied workers one by one, pull them down under the wall and shoot the unionists and their families collectively "like butchering dogs". Some lawyers also suggested that the workers' families be captured and used as hostages...

In short, in order to prevent imaginary strikes and prevent their interests from being harmed, you can do whatever you want.

Horrible lawyer, terrible advice, girls will be frightened.[

Salome - Li Lin glanced at the ladies in puberty and turned his attention to the two carriages shown on the virtual map. The carriage carrying Roland and the Baron was 50 meters ahead of them and driving slowly.

According to the current speed, we will arrive at Baron Rice's residence before 23:30 at the earliest.

After confirming the time, more than ten cursors lurking in various corners of the royal capital, either in action or on standby, were also displayed.

In order to catch "Jack" and something held by "Jack", strong men belonging to different forces are rushing through the streets and alleys under the cover of night. Who can find "Jack" first and get the key?

"Sexual" things, whoever can take control of Charlemagne's political discourse will have a major impact on the political ecology of this country in the future.

After all, something accidentally leaked out of the hands of Ve Company. If those things were made public, this multinational giant company would be in big trouble.

It's funny to say that in an accidental traffic accident, the specific flow of the things that disappeared from the VE Company's armored carriage was confirmed to be through "Jack's" crimes, especially the few that have occurred in recent times.

The murder allowed VE Company, which knew all kinds of inside information, to know who had touched their things, and further refined the identity of "Jack" into a "magician who is passionate about research and not good at communicating with others."

For no other reason, that thing is an existence with special poison. The more outstanding a magician is, the harder it is to resist that "poison".

Once you have been exposed to it once, it will be difficult to let go, and you will do some shocking things. It is like a child who gets a new toy, not wanting to wait for a second, and feverishly unpacking it to play with it.

Because that kind of people are actually the most impatient. If they were patient, they would not want to spend a mere human life exploring the truth of all things in the universe.

After narrowing the scope of targets, the Stasi's huge intelligence network quickly became effective. "Jack's" whereabouts, identity, and experiences were unearthed one by one. Other forces had been letting it go, and now the reason for suddenly stepping up the arrest activities was also found out.

.

With everything figured out, the next step is to formulate a plan to close the arresting net in conjunction with tonight's performance and recover "Jack" and the lost items.

It is tense because of its importance, and traces are found because of its abnormal characteristics.

If this is a joke played by fate, it is really the worst and most unlucky kind. (To be continued...)
