Chapter 245

Put it in the arsenal, waiting for the mainstream magic devices to be used again when they are not enough, or export it to some powerful countries without independent R&D and manufacturing capabilities.

The spare parts are also divided into different grades. Unlike the main arsenal, which is checked once a month, the lowest grade ones are checked once every three months. Some are too old and may not be counted once a year.

Then a guard of this arsenal suddenly reported the official in charge of management, who replaced some magic devices with models, colluded with others in private, and sold a total of 25 military magic devices within three years to enrich himself.

When he learned that the higher-ups were going to send someone to inspect, the official committed suicide when he saw that he could not escape.

But his two sons ran away with extremely important evidence.

"The people from the Security Department caught one of them and learned that the evidence was the list of where the magic device transaction went, but it was on his other brother.

Then there was the situation that Your Highness encountered yesterday afternoon, so the military magic device left by the evil thief in our Shengdao City is very likely from here. The two cases can be investigated together."

Lin heard this, just propped up his chin and remained silent.

After a while, he curved his mouth and muttered to himself: "So it's a clue to the case, isn't it a state secret?"

"Ah? What does Your Highness mean." Bai Tu was a little confused.

"If you were the Archbishop and you were from the Security Station, would you risk offending a noble with an important status in another big country, or even cause the consequences of a diplomatic incident, and arrest or put the other party under house arrest just based on suspicion?"

Bai Tu heard this, scratched his hair, thought for a while, and shook his head.

"I wouldn't do that if I lost the list, I could investigate other things. Besides, the transaction has been going on for three years, and the magic device must have been out of the country for a long time. It would be a long job to find it back.

This case is not small, but not particularly big. Although His Majesty said that he wanted to find out as soon as possible, he did not give a death order, so it is not a crisis that needs to cause conflicts with other countries."

Chapter 26 Maybe she is a sickly girl

Bai Tu's statement is similar to what Lin thought.

Rin supported her chin with one hand and tapped the table with the other hand, with a bit of ill intentions.

Archbishop Bai Tu immediately continued to ask: "Your Highness, do you suspect Albert, the director of the Security Department?"

"Almost."

He even suspected the eldest prince Sylvester. He seemed to be very euphemistic, and his purpose was eastward like Albert.

It's just that this eldest prince is a positive male supporting role in the book. Even in the matter of Magic Shell Island, many people agree with it from the perspective of humans.

In addition, the book has always said that he is humble, diligent, and has a noble character. The same is true in this world. His reputation is far superior to that of the evil young man. Neither Webster nor Bai Tu would have any doubts about him.

Even Lin only had some intuitive suspicions, and it was really hard to say anything.

"But as far as I know, this Albert has been spoiled since he was a child. He is arrogant and eager for quick success and reckless. He is a stupid person. It is not surprising that he would do such a thing. It still needs to be observed."

"Yeah."

Rin's best solution now is to crack the game cube to see what secrets are inside. Before that, anything he says is just suspicion.

"Let's not talk about that idiot for now. There is another thing, about a banned book..."

Bai Tu looked strange: "Your Highness, you are not talking about the strange story of the saint, ahem... I don't know which shameless pagan actually portrayed the saint so filthy, I'm sorry to make you laugh."

"Um... that, after the book was confiscated..."

"Burn them all in public!"

Bai Tu said seriously: "This kind of book that slanders the saint and has a bad influence on faith must be destroyed. Privately keeping it will be punished. Has your Highness seen it somewhere?"

It was at this time that Bai Tu, who looked very unserious, acted particularly serious.

Rin turned his head away, curled his lips, and said "tsk".

"I just heard it by chance. Well, nothing else. As a distinguished guest, I can't leave for too long. Your Highness will go back first."

"Oh, yes, I'll go with you."

...

The opening ceremony ended at nearly 12 o'clock, and the students left. Only the silly roe deer and the others stayed.

Of course, this did not include Qi Yu.

Rin also liked the fox's elusiveness, so she didn't care too much. She was bullying the silly roe deer and the useless cat with pride, when suddenly a gentle and clear voice came from behind.

"Sir, the Holy Son."

Rin let go of the hand that was holding the silly roe deer's hair, turned around, and saw Sylvester, who was smiling brighter than the sun.

The eldest prince was accompanied by Ryan, and he was also unhappy when he saw Rin. He clearly saw that this evil young man was bullying Princess Iris again.

"Syr, I'll go back first." Ryan said to him.

Sylvester looked reluctant: "Hey? So soon, I wanted to invite you to the banquet."

"Wait until the competition is over, I still have to go back to study alchemy."

"Well, I'm looking forward to seeing you at the awards ceremony, and I believe you will shine, Ryan."

Sylvester looked sincere and patted Ryan on the shoulder.

Ryan was also full of confidence: "I will."

The two looked at each other sincerely for a long time, and Sherlock reminded him in a low voice. Then Ren apologized and left with Sherlock.

"Hey, I finally don't have to watch the inexplicably ambiguous scenes."

Rin muttered something in a low voice. Sylvester's expression froze when he heard this, but he soon broke out into a sunny smile.

"Master Rin, I apologize to you again for my rudeness last night."

As he spoke, he bowed again, looking very sincere.

Rin waved his hands indifferently: "I don't care about small things."

"The Holy Son is indeed an open-minded person, but I must not throw away the courtesy of apology. Can you invite you to my place for a meal? Please be respectful."

Rin's instinct was to refuse, but after thinking about it, she suddenly felt that this was an opportunity to observe whether there was any problem with him, and maybe make some compensation for herself.

So he looked Sylvester up and down with a wicked smile.

Sylvester had been stared at by him for a long time, but it didn't help him to be embarrassed at all. He kept smiling and seemed easy to get along with.

"Okay, I was not in a good mood last night, and the palace banquet was not delicious. It just so happens that I want to have a feast today. They say that the Holy Empire has many delicacies, but I have never had the chance to taste them."

"Haha, it turns out that the Holy Son has the same hobbies as me, and I am also obsessed with food. To be honest, the banquet food in Father's Palace looks exquisite and delicious, but in fact it is just that. I searched a lot of chefs and recipes, and it is absolutely not the case. will disappoint you."

"Not bad, not bad, I suddenly found you quite pleasing to the eye." Rin also replied with a smile.

The two immediately looked like they had met each other late and chatted about various specialties.

Silly Roe Deer and Fei Miao looked at each other, and an idea popped into their heads at the same time.

Xiao Lin (the damn tsundere) is acting again, ready to trick people.

Elise's brows turned, and she looked like a kind and cute little princess, smiling expectantly: "Am I the only one?"

"Me too." Fei Miao also spit out two words.

Sylvester looked surprised; "That's natural, Princess Elise and Lord Brave, haha, it's really an honor for you to come."

As he said that, he looked at Xiye, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes: "Where is the Sword Master?"

Compared to the two little girls Elise and Emilia, Xiye is undoubtedly the most stunning to more mature men.

The mixed race hits the best of both Eastern and Western looks. No matter which side of the aesthetic spectrum, she will find her beautiful. Her inviolable temperament, like a flower on the high mountain, is also the main reason why people admire her.

Xiye put her soft eyes on her younger brother. Hearing this, she shook her head and said, "The competition will start tomorrow. As the team leader, I still have a lot of work to prepare for."

After rejecting the invitation, Yuya put her hand on Rin's head.

"Brother, come back early."

"I got it! Don't do anything."

Rin quickly slapped her hand away and said impatiently to Sylvester: "Leave her alone, let's go first."

What is this idiot sword master doing? There are so many people watching. If the people in the academy see it and send it back, the Phoenix family will suspect that his relationship is not that bad.

Well...it doesn't matter anymore, he will start solving Xiye's problem when he gets back.

But he wasn't a child anymore, so it was a bit awkward to have his head touched in public.

Xiye wasn't angry either. She watched Rin leave silently and then turned around and left.

Not long after, several people arrived at the eldest prince's palace.

Of course, his bedroom is also in the palace, but there is a specially opened door, so there is no need to enter through the main road of the palace.

Unless you are canonized as a prince, you can have your own mansion outside. .

"Elena, the distinguished guests have arrived. Are the kitchens ready?"

As soon as the eldest prince entered the living room, his wife came after hearing the news, and Sylvester, who saw his wife, also asked happily.

Elena always wore an elegant and decent smile, picked up the hem of her skirt, and bowed to several people.

"Thank you all for being able to accept the invitation despite your busy schedule. Your Highness, the banquet has been prepared."

The second half of the sentence was directed at Sylvester, who waved his hand and prepared to open the banquet.

The culture of the other world has been deeply poisoned by Lin Wuyue's writings, so it has also formed a tradition of eating at a banquet and talking about things. No matter how big or small it is, just treat guests to dinner.

Today's princess looked particularly elegant, her gaze focused on her, as if there was someone else who flirted with Rin last night.

Several people sat down around the dining table, and dining carts were immediately pushed up.

After Sylvester knew that Rin liked food, he started to explain it enthusiastically.

"The bottom is a red cabbage soup. After drinking it, you can whet your appetite and open your taste buds to main dishes with richer flavors."

While Sylvester was talking, an attendant hurried in and whispered a few words into his ear.

Hearing this, he quickly stood up and said to Rin and the others: "My sister is here."

"Lina is here?"

Elise also stood up and stared at the door happily.

At this time, Sylvester had already walked back to the door, and not long after, he walked in pushing a wheelchair.

Sitting in the wheelchair was a very frail blonde girl.

She looked about the same age as Emilia, with an extremely pale face and a sickly look. Her lips were pale, but she always had a slight smile.

Her long golden hair was decorated with only a blue bow. She was wearing a thick coat. On her soft and delicate face, the most eye-catching thing was a pair of clear blue eyes and two cute dimples.

She folded her hands on her legs, and looked at Lin and Emilia with curiosity, and finally her eyes fell on Elena.

"Sister-in-law, how are you?"

Elena looked a little worried, squatted down and reached out to touch her cheek: "Lina, why did you come out when you didn't take good care of yourself? What if you catch a cold?"

Lina smiled gently: "Yesterday, I was very rude for not being able to attend the banquet. Today, my brother told me that he would invite the Son of God, the Brave Lord, and Iris, so I decided to come."

"But..."

"It's okay. Do I look energetic today?"

Lina blinked mischievously, but soon coughed several times into her handkerchief, and an unhealthy blush appeared on her face.

Sylvester patted her back and said worriedly, "If I had known, I would have specifically told the maids not to let you out."

"Hehe."

Lina wrinkled her nose, and then showed an apologetic look to Rin and the others.

"Please forgive my rudeness."

"It's okay, Lina, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Iris came over happily, grabbed her hand, and cast several healing spells directly.

Lina looked better, and the unnatural blush was suppressed.

It's a pity that the healing spell only made her feel a little more comfortable. The curse could not be lifted, and she would always be tortured like this.

Silly Roe Deer put down her hand and looked at Lina's expression, full of worry and regret.

Sylvester touched his sister's head lovingly and introduced to everyone: "Rin, this is my only sister Lina."

"Lina, this is the first Chosen Son of God, Rin Phoenix, and this one, you should have met a few years ago, the current Hero, Emilia."
