Chapter 234: Can’t eat and walk around
Mona and Juno join forces, but the detective team has no tacit understanding at all. With both pretending to be stupid, the progress of the investigation is limited.
Princess Elizabeth behind Juno did not express her position. She was not in a hurry, and it was useless for Wayne to be anxious. He got the intelligence collected by Mona every day and turned to discuss with Alston.
Based on the information on hand, the princess intends to cooperate with the Landau family.
To be precise, Auston is loyal to the Queen, and the Princess wants Wayne's loyalty.
"Auston, this is different from what you said..."
Wayne was puzzled: "According to your point of view, Prince Edward has no possibility of ascending to the throne. The princess can become the queen without doing anything, but she does not behave like a winner at all."
Whether he was looking for dirt on the prince or ogling the Landau family in advance, the more Wayne looked at her, the more he felt that the princess had a guilty conscience and lacked the confidence to use outside tactics.
"Don't think so much, I've already asked the Queen." Auston ended the conversation.
"What did the Queen say?"
"No statement."
Alston played with the ancient silver coins: "The queen has not expressed her position, but the princess's investigation is still going on, which means she knows about it. As for choosing the Landau family... I have no idea yet."
The Landau family is loyal to the queen and will also be loyal to the king in the future. There is no need for the princess to be so anxious, just wait patiently.
And with the queen's knowledge, even if the princess flirted with her until her eyelids twitched, the Landau family couldn't see anything.
I have to say find a scapegoat...
Impossible, the queen already knows it.
Based on Alston's understanding of Princess Elizabeth, she was an excellent heir to the throne with means, strength, and shrewd mind, so such a clever operation did not seem to be the work of a princess.
"The princess knows what I'm talking about. She wants to test whether your biological father is worth looking forward to!" Wayne said firmly.
Auston ignored him and said instead: "I think Heaphy has already told you that the Nature Church's investigation team has left Lundan and your candidacy has been secured. When the process at the Nature Church headquarters is completed, in the next period Time for you to head to headquarters.”
"The teacher said it, and also mentioned Flora. She took her annual leave and took the students out of Lundam. If everything goes well, she went to the headquarters to make connections." Wayne curled his lips and thought about Flora showing her thighs everywhere. picture.
Otherwise, apart from her status as a former saint, what leverage does she have? "I remember you said that the investigation team came to two members of the Natural Knights. They didn't know who the other was." Auston said slowly: "Be careful, maybe the deputy leader is It’s for the death knight.”
"The Dark Knight, he's the most wanted criminal."
Wayne had some expectations, and Gavin rushed into the West End Cemetery, with the Death Knight in front and the Dark Knight behind him, weak, helpless and pitiful, squatting behind the tombstones and shivering.
"The deputy leader of the Natural Knights cannot be here just to test the candidates. He should have other purposes..." Auston frowned, suspecting that the deputy leader had already met the queen.
It could also be someone else, such as the Holy See of Heavenly Father.
The most likely possibility is that he has been here to support the Church of Nature and warn its ally Moonlight Church not to seize territory.
Auston shook his head slightly and no longer thought about these messes: "Go to the headquarters and keep a low profile. Don't let you go there. The Dark Knight has also appeared. He will use his normal skills to deal with Flora's students. I hope she can make Xiffy change her mind."
"Don't worry, I know Otilia very well, she can't escape my grasp."
"..."
Auston didn't want to speak and raised his finger to the door to signal Wayne to leave.

Time went round and round to February 8, and Mona's investigation progress made a breakthrough.
She received reliable information from Juno that Prince Edward held a birthday party for his lover at a castle on the outskirts of the city.
The venue was rented by Mayor Angelo, and there was so much excitement that even Wayne received an invitation.
Detective Agency Office.
Wayne got the information about Mustache, then called Sola to hand over the information about the Tulip family.
Simple and crude, not afraid of exposure at all.
He was not afraid. Sola panicked a lot, and he and Wayne determined the mailbox for the next exchange of information. If there is information in the future, just drop it in a garbage bag, and don't meet every time.
Wayne agreed immediately. Next time, he would outsource it to Mustache and take the information directly to the mailbox, saving him the time of handling it.
After solving these little things, Wayne rubbed his little hands and looked forward to the performance of the last familiar.
The first familiar disappeared as soon as he arrived in Lundan, and the second one became the mysterious man's puppet. Each one was more embarrassing than the last, creating two hellish jokes in a row.
The third one is the most hidden. As far as Juliette's name is concerned, it should be a familiar with a female appearance.
Wayne looked at the invitation on the left, then looked at the information on the right, pointed at Xiang De's photo and said, "I've seen this woman before, but I didn't expect that she would catch the prince so quickly."
Mona nodded with envy. If she had such efficiency, she would have been unable to eat and walked away.
"Is the information reliable? I observed this beauty at the time and did not sense the devil's aura on her..."
Wayne hesitated to speak. He didn't know what the devil's aura was. He only knew that Xiang De was indeed very beautiful. He suspected that his three senses followed the five senses and was deceived by the devil's beauty.
"Boss, Juno's information came from the princess, so I can't be wrong."
"That prince is awesome. He has a devil lover, and he can call himself a devil knight in the future."
Wayne complained, picked up the invitation and handed it to Mona: "You are going to the banquet on my behalf. No gifts or anything else is needed. Just bring a bouquet of flowers. The prince and I are not that familiar."
After saying that, he sent a message through his mind. With so many people gathered together, it was impossible for the devil to do nothing. He would go to the castle as a death knight tonight to have a look.
"Boss, Juno doesn't have an invitation letter, but she knows you do and wants to follow you into the venue."
"No, you go with her."
Wayne frowned and led the two beauties to the banquet. They hugged each other, which was very cool. At the same time, he imitated Alston and established a persona of a lustful playboy, showing that women are his weakness.
No one is perfect, so if you want to deal with him, use a honey trap. He promises that he is easy to seduce.
Auston played like this.
It's a pity that I can't play it.
At least not this time.
There is a prince and a princess, and the queen is watching eagerly from behind. This banquet is too chaotic. As the heir of the Landau family, he cannot come forward directly.
Ask the secretary to bring a bouquet of flowers and that's pretty much it.
————
night.
Suburbs of Lundam.
The cold moon is lonely and the mist is thin.
Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the dense forest covers the low mountains, with layers of leaves. The hazy moonlight cannot penetrate. From a high position, an intermittent mountain road can be seen.
A gust of wind blew by, pushing the mist away like a big hand, and the branches swaying in the wind seemed to be pushed by the big hand, making a swishing sound.
Deep in the dense forest, an ancient castle stood quietly, and soft music spread, barely suppressing the gloomy atmosphere around it.
The high beam cut through the darkness, and a black car drove from far away, crossed the stone bridge, passed through the tunnel, and slowly approached the castle.
In the car, two ladies were dressed up.
Mona and Juno have similar tastes, and they both wore white evening dresses, with coats and coats covering their elegant curves.
All she needs is a man who can carry bags, drive a car, and hug her from left to right.
Juno drove the car and said in surprise: "It's unbelievable that your boss didn't come and let such a beautiful secretary like you attend the banquet alone. Is he really relieved?"
He was on his way on horseback.
Mona gave the correct answer in her mind and smiled slightly: "Juno, the boss and I are just in an employment relationship. It's not as complicated as you think."
"Really or not, you and him that night..."
Juno raised his eyebrows: "You and I both have Holy Light Magic. We have known each other for so many days. We are not just good sisters, but at least good friends. To be honest, what is the relationship between you and Sir Wayne?"
"It doesn't matter."
"I don't believe it, you must be his girlfriend."
"Not rare."
"Is that your lover?"
"..."
This can be done.
Seeing that Mona did not refute, Juno said regretfully: "Sir Wayne is the heir of the Landau family. He is destined to marry Mr. Landau's daughter. Your conditions are so good, there is no need to waste your youth on him."
It has nothing to do with you!
"Seriously, are you interested in changing jobs? The princess needs talents like you. One day in the future, Sir Wayne may even bow to you when he sees you." Juno extended an olive branch and tried to kidnap Mona away.
As you can imagine, the effect is average.
Although Mona is not the shape of Wayne, she is already the shape of Wayne.
"Juno, don't talk while driving. Look straight ahead. Besides, you are wearing high heels, right?"
"ah?"
"Next time, remember not to wear high heels when driving. It's too dangerous."
"..."
Juno was not discouraged. She gave her good advice along the way, telling her to be self-reliant, not to be dependent on men, that the sisters did it together, etc. Mona had no reaction at all.
"We're here." The black car parked in the temporary parking lot in front of the castle. Juno opened the door and got out of the car, looking at the cold moon in the distance: "The fog in the suburbs is so thick tonight. It wasn't so gloomy when we visited the spot yesterday. It was a devil. means?"
The devil is not so handsome!
Juno stepped on the thunder one after another, which made Mona feel unhappy. She walked to the castle gate with the invitation letter and gave today's gift by the way.
A bouquet of flowers.
"Is this your boss's gift?"
"Well, etiquette is less important than affection, that's what the boss said."
"You are so stupid, why didn't the princess meet you earlier..."
Juno fought for the princess. It was a pity that such a good woman was not captured by the princess.
The two entered the castle venue on the red carpet. They were magicians and were not afraid of the cold winter nights, but they had no intention of taking off their coats. They carried wine glasses to the rooftop banquet square and found a corner to observe the surrounding guests.
Soon, a gentleman walked up to the two and asked if they needed a male companion.
Juno put his arm around Mona's shoulders, indicating that they were single and could be happy without a male partner.
Because it was Windsor, the gentleman smiled and left.
Suddenly, there was a noise below, and the guests on the top floor looked down at the castle gate, and laughed with gloating.
Mona looked down and saw that more than a dozen men in black surrounded a woman and forced her way through the checkpoint. They used very rough methods and beat back anyone who tried to stop her.
The woman was the most powerful, wearing a riding suit and a pair of long boots. She held a whip in her hand to open the way and drove away the castle guards with a crackle.
Mona pushed up her glasses. The woman's identity was not simple. She broke through the barrier violently, and the castle guards fought and retreated. No one fought back.
"There's something good to watch."
The corners of Juno's lips curled up: "She is Prince Edward's fiancée Carole Bourbon. The famous Bourbon family used to be very powerful, but now their influence is average."
"Juno, is this something you can say casually?"
This was the first time Mona heard the prince's fiancée's surname. Rounding it off, the prince and his fiancée were still relatives.
"Whatever it is, everyone who knows knows it. It doesn't matter if you don't know. For example, the princess's fiancé is also the heir of a branch of a down-and-out family."
Juno raised his hand and pointed to the northeast: "Friendly reminder, it's the down-and-out royal family."
"Hohenzollern?"
"A little further."
No matter how far you go, you can only dig potatoes...
Mona suddenly realized and thought of the famous Romanov family. She frowned and said in confusion: "As far as I know, all the members of this family are dead. At that time, they also asked the Windsor royal family for help."
"Politics, there are always various reasons. I can only say that the environment does not allow it..."
Juno smiled slightly: "Besides, it's not hopeless, otherwise where would the princess's fiancé come from?"
"Gudu!"
Mona swallowed. The princess's fiancé and the prince's fiancée may not have orthodox blood, but their surnames are of great significance.
What will the Windsor royal family do to overthrow the current social system and restore the feudal rule of the past?
No way, are you so crazy?
This is playing with fire and burning yourself. Even the Papal States dare not do this.
Probably seeing Mona's surprise, Juno smiled: "Don't think too much, no one dares to mess around. It's just leaving a bloodline to facilitate some small actions in the future."
Mona was stunned when she heard this, looked Juno up and down, frowned and said: "Juno, you talk a bit too much tonight."
When her butt didn't touch Wayne's hand, Mona's IQ was absolutely online. It could be seen that Juno tonight was completely different from before, and it seemed that these words were not meant for her.
"I can't help it. Your boss is not here, so I can only tell you."
"..."
Mona was stunned again. Is there a possibility that the relationship the princess wanted to establish was not the Landau family, but her master.
"Stop talking about this, let's watch the show!"
Juno took a sip of her drink, warmed her body and looked down. There were other guests who shared her optimistic attitude.
These people were either Edward's friends, or guests invited by Mayor Angelo, acquaintances from the same circle, and would not let go of any chance they had to watch the excitement.
It would be a worthwhile trip tonight if we could see Carol fight against Chand.
Below, Prince Edward came to the rescue with a group of people. Seeing him sweating profusely and trying desperately to explain to his fiancée, you knew that the biggest fun of the night was about to take place.
Fight! Fight!
In the grass in the corner of the castle, a skull's eyes shine.
"Edward, why didn't I receive an invitation for your birthday? Also, why was your birthday changed to today?"
"Carol, please listen to my explanation..."
"I won't listen, I won't listen, hand over that slut, I want to see how charming she can be!"
"There are a lot of people here, let's talk after we enter the house..."
Faced with the aggressiveness of his fiancée, the prince's head grew bigger, and he seemed to hear the laughter of his friends. He dragged his fiancée into the castle.
In the open-air square, everyone looked forward to the start of the second show.
It was just an appetizer, and now comes the main meal.
"The prince is going to have a headache today. I remember that he is very afraid of his fiancée..."
"After all, the whip works well."
"It's not in vain that I came to join in the fun today. My trip was not in vain."
"Speaking of which, Xiande's only support is Mayor Angelo. Will she be hung up and whipped?"
"Sex is so fascinating that the prince should have thought that this day would come."
Not many people in the world know Tai Chi, but only a handful know Bagua.
For example, now, the onlookers are not too worried about the fun, but they are afraid that the fun will be too small and they will not be able to enjoy themselves enough. They actively use their subjective initiative to make up jokes one after another by thinking about the upcoming dinner.
The unscrupulous ridicule of so many harmful friends shows that although the prince has no ability to govern the country, he has many friends and is very popular outside.
Crackling.
The sound of something being smashed was heard, and everyone laughed even more happily.
Mona looked at it and looked away.
It's boring, there are only sounds, no images. Instead of wasting time, it's better to go over and see if Xiang De is a devil.
Turning around, the target was clearly in front of him.
Xiang De arrived at the top floor at some point. She had black hair cross-legged and wore a black evening dress, revealing her snow-white shoulders and neck. Her delicate collarbone was downward, and her black pendant gemstones were embellished with clear ravines.
The breath of darkness!
Mona narrowed her eyes slightly, her eyes glowing with golden light, staring at the black gem on Xiang De's chest.
The power of the Dark Church is not the devil of hell. This clue is wrong.
Click!
The black gem cracked open, and a surging dark aura surged out of it, surrounding Xiang De's body, wrapped in heavy black mist, and slender elemental shadows rose from the ground.
The dark figure is about five meters tall. The twisted black mist rises like long hair, and its arms hang down slenderly. The inverted triangular body converges to the waist, and then expands and spreads out, as if it is wearing a dark woven pleated skirt.
The black shadow raised an arm and held up the elemental black mist umbrella. At about the position of the face, a pair of red lights suddenly opened.
The guests were startled by this scene, and they shivered and backed away. They were at the edge of the top floor of the castle, and then they fell freely backwards.
Mona didn't take action. Xander was not a devil. There was no need for her to reveal her identity and cause trouble for Wayne.
Beside him, Juno took a step slowly, holding the cross pendant in his hand and murmuring in his mouth.
Shake before casting.
boom! ! !
There was a loud noise from heaven and earth, and the earth roared, causing the castle to tremble violently.
Black curtains were pulled up from all directions, covering all five directions, completely surrounding the castle.
High in the sky, the inverted five-pointed star array bloomed with red light, and cold blood rain poured down, covering the gray castle with a layer of blood.
Looking from a distance, the cold moon outside the curtain was so red that it almost bled.
Prince Edward ran out quickly, followed by his fiancée Carol, who was holding a leather whip. The two of them looked up at the top of their heads, drizzled in the drizzle, and their eyes gradually became blurred.
A figure came behind the two of them and patted their shoulders. The greasy middle-aged body slowly changed and settled into an elegant figure wearing a black wide-brimmed hat.
The last familiar, Juliet!
Now it shows up, is there something wrong?
In the grass in the corner of the castle, the skeleton's head was doubtful, and he appeared simply and crudely, without any sense of the boss's spirit. Even if the familiar was an elite monster and not a big boss, such an appearance would have wasted more than a month of lurking.
But even so, I thought you were someone!
Wayne was a little disappointed and wanted to fake the corpse on the spot.
Directly south of the castle, a white light rose into the sky. The surging magic power stirred up a whirlpool and turned the blood rain backwards. It was by no means as simple as a golden mage.
Are there any experts?
