Quadruple split.

Chapter 263 Desperate?
"What do you mean by 'next link'?"

Emperor Clever put down the file in his hand, and took a deep look at Futaba: "Conviction? Or trial?"

"Not at all, my dear majesty." Futaba smiled, and her eyes behind the glasses narrowed into a pair of beautiful crescent moons: "We can't be so hasty to give a grand duke who has inherited a glorious surname, a man who governs The lord of one-ninth of Violet land was convicted, even with such clear evidence, everyone here is very clear about this, and I am also very clear~"

Clever nodded lightly: "Go on, Miss Futaba, but please don't beat around the bush. I think everyone has already fully appreciated your intelligence. Now, everyone in this cabin just needs a clarification. ideas or ideas, if you don’t want us to do it for you.”

"Okay, okay, just tell me what you have to say? No problem." Futaba nodded briskly, but after putting away her hippie smile just now, she sighed exaggeratedly: "I thought you were a very funny What about the people, His Majesty the Emperor."

Clever smiled slightly: "I am indeed, but you gave me a theme that is completely uninteresting, so don't waste any more time."

"Okay, then respect is worse than obedience." Futaba shrugged, then calmly sat back beside Emmeline, suppressed the last smile, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone can stop looking at these evidences, It’s a waste of time to study any further.”

Under the instruction of Emperor Clever, all the people put down the files in their hands, sat down around the wooden table in the center of the room, and waited for someone to speak.

"Beforehand, I don't want to be the pacemaker of this meeting, but just like what His Majesty the Emperor said just now, you should have an idea now, um, if you don't mind, please allow me to put away these precious relics first. "Futaba smiled gracefully, and then snapped her fingers lightly. A few breezes blew across the table without warning, blowing the scattered files together, and then turning them into a harmless blow." The small dragon roll stacked them together, just like what everyone saw when they entered the house.

Grand Duke Fernan and Grand Duke Crystal Wolf whispered at the same time, and then asked in unison: "Are you really a junior mage?"

"Yes." Futaba nodded shyly, and then emphasized: "The most awesome and godly junior mage."

Grand Duke Fernand laughed dryly and stopped talking.

Emmeline, Grand Duke of the Crystal Wolf, couldn't help sighing: "The ability to control demons is simply better than mine..."

"Amy, you half-baked magic swordsman is incomparable with others." Grand Duke Baroka interrupted him shaking his head, and then raised his face seriously: "Your Majesty means to let Ms. Futaba get to the point as soon as possible, so please calm down a little Divide a bit."

Grand Duke Crystal Wolf nodded with a reddish complexion, and immediately stopped talking.

After all, no matter how Futaba is, he is only a junior mage. What kind of genius is a junior mage? This kind of thing is nothing compared to the topic of whether a grand duke is suspected of being a "slave trader". Moreover, everyone present is much stronger than Futaba in terms of physical strength. Even Emperor Clever and Grand Duke Dantes, who are the weakest in personal strength, both have the strength of mid-level professionals. In this way, when Futaba used low-level small magic in the Hall of Zijiu, no mirror guards stepped forward to stop her, because anyone with a discerning eye knew that this little girl was definitely not an opponent of anyone here, let alone everyone present There are several self-protection props on the bottom of the box.

Even if they are still considered "approachable" to Futaba at present, and they can even get a few words from her, but these people are all overlords, they are the best of the best. The brain can imagine.

"Okay, let's get back to business." Futaba snapped her fingers lightly, and raised her chin at the stack of files on the table: "First of all, everyone has confirmed the 'evidence' I brought, and their The authenticity is obviously very high, so high that even the Grand Duke Marshall himself cannot completely deny it, am I right?"

Grand Duke Crystal Wolf, Grand Duke Baroca, Grand Duke Dantis and Grand Duke Fernand nodded slightly.

Buffy Marshall frowned: "I just don't dare to make a statement because I don't know it, but the fact that there is a slave catcher's stronghold in Mercury City..."

"I know, I know, that's why I said that you can't 'completely' deny it, instead of agreeing to everything, and since I'm serious, please don't interrupt me casually, after all, I represent the Duke of Firepaw, even if I'm not a nobleman, But at least until now, they have the same right to speak as you, or even more than you." Futaba interrupted Marshall impatiently, and then took out half a bottle of mana potion that smelled of wine from the luggage and gently He took a sip: "So everyone can understand that my accusation is reasonable and well-founded, which is a good thing, but unfortunately, we still cannot convict the Grand Duke of Marshall."

Grand Duke Simon looked at her scrutinizingly: "So?"

"That's why I suggest that everyone put down the evidence, don't waste time, and go directly to the next stage. His Majesty the Emperor obviously thinks so too." Futaba blinked at Archduke Simon with a reddish face, and took another sip of the non-toxic drug in her hand. Knowing whether it is a potion or a drink, he said softly: "It's not a secret anymore. I, Futaba, the senior advisor of the Grand Duke of Fire Claw and Blood Axe, hereby suggest that an investigation team should be formed immediately to go to Marshall to verify the situation in front of you." Evidence', I will prepare a copy within three hours, and this period of time can just be used to screen the members of the investigation team."

Grand Duke Hussein seemed to choke. He held his neck and coughed dryly twice: "Now...uh cough! Now?! Are you too anxious?"

"Is there any problem?" Futaba tilted her head curiously, and put the crystal bottle in her hand back into her bag: "Do you think it is more appropriate for us to convict Grand Duke Marshall directly without forming an investigation team? Or do you think it is better for the investigation team to leave later? what is the benefit?"

Scorpius Hussein shook his head: "I just think it's too hasty."

"Soldiers are precious, my dear Grand Duke Hussein." Futaba showed an impeccable smile, stretched out her index finger and shook lightly: "Believe me, you suspect that trivial matters such as buying cheap labor are the priority. It’s not high, I think the first stop of the investigation team should undoubtedly be Mercury City.”

Scorpius opened his mouth and seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Grand Duke Simon raising his hand.

The meticulous dark elf lord glanced at Buffy Marshall and asked indifferently, "What's your opinion? Buffy."

"I have no opinion."

The Grand Duke of Marshall gave an answer that surprised most of the people present.

Futaba also seemed a little dazed, she frowned, and asked hesitantly, "You have no objection?"

"Of course I have no objection." Grand Duke Marshall nodded with a smile, and spread his hands: "On the basis that we are all eager to find out the truth, I am even more eager to clarify my suspicions. As you said, Bing Your god is fast, um, that's what it means."

Emperor Clever nodded slightly: "Okay, if that's the case, then according to what Miss Futaba said, immediately form an investigation team."

【He doesn't object to the verification immediately, and he doesn't have the slightest intention of delaying the time. If that's the case...】

"Wait a minute." Futaba suddenly said softly, and then asked Emperor Clever very seriously: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but I want to know how the candidates for the investigation team are decided?"

Clever Blaisen didn't seem to feel unhappy, but replied indifferently: "Under normal circumstances, all the lords are organized separately."

At this moment, Futaba seemed to catch a hint of cunning in Buffy Marshall's eyes.

"Is that normal now?"

she asked quickly.

Clever raised his eyebrows, and did not answer Futaba's question, but asked instead: "Then what do you mean?"

"I hope to exclude the Duke of Marshall. After all, his current position is the 'defendant', um, the accused party. So for the sake of insurance, I think Duke Buffy Marshall should not intervene in this investigation until the preliminary investigation is over. " Futaba said without thinking.

Grand Duke Dantis stroked his beard hesitantly: "This seems to be a bit out of order, but this kind of thing... it's the first time it happened, and what Miss Futaba said is not unreasonable..."

"No, it doesn't matter."

Grand Duke Marshall smiled again under Futaba's shocked gaze, and said word by word: "I agree."

Clever nodded with satisfaction: "Very well, since this is the case, this time the investigation team will consist of two archdukes each from Baroca, Crystal Wolf, Dantes, Simon, Hussein, and Fernando." Just choose from the entourage of you who came this time, and the Violet Royal Family will also send two teams of guards and four officials to the Marshall Territory together, and the expenses and supplies for this journey will be provided by the Royal Family, how about it?"

The others agreed immediately.

Futaba, on the other hand, stared firmly at Marshall's smiling eyes, gritted her silver teeth lightly, "Very well, then thank you all, I will prepare a copy of these evidences within three hours."

"Thank you." Emperor Clever nodded, and then stood up first: "Then everyone, we will now..."

"Sorry, Your Majesty."

Futaba stood up right behind her, ignored the slightly dissatisfied gaze of the other party, and lowered her head to ask, "I have two last proposals."

Emmeline behind her gently tugged at her sleeve.

Scorpius looked at her coldly: "You have to learn how to stop, little girl, even if you are the guest of Grand Duke Firepaw and the disciple of Master Tal Rasha, you still need to abide by the most basic courtesy and virtue."

"Miss Futaba." Grand Duke Dantis sighed and said in a low voice, "Scorpius is right, enough is enough..."

Grand Duke Baroka also patted Futaba on the shoulder: "The Grand Duke Marshall has already made enough concessions, Futaba."

Grand Duke Fernand just jumped off the chair and didn't say anything.

"perhaps……"

Grand Duke Simon shook his head slightly at everyone: "We can listen to it first, and then decide whether to ignore Ms. Futaba's endless questions and requests."

The Grand Duke Marshall smiled reassuringly: "I don't think it's a problem."

Clever's vicissitudes of face did not show much expression, he just raised his eyes slightly: "Is it the last two?"

"Yes." Futaba seemed to have expected that the emperor in front of her would allow herself to continue speaking, nodded vigorously, and then said her first suggestion: "First of all, I hope that His Majesty will send someone to the investigation team. Monitor the movements of the Grand Duke of Marshall and all his entourage during the period before his return."

Clever raised his eyebrows: "The reason?"

"To eliminate the possibility of any information transmission, we must know that whether it is to use a small-scale teleportation circle to send information to the Magician's Union, or use a well-trained flying monster, or find a dark thread or directly spend money to hire someone Whether you rush to the Marshall Territory as fast as you can, the action efficiency far exceeds that of the investigation team." Futaba turned her head and glanced at Buffy Marshall provocatively, and said in a deep voice: "We must guard against this situation. Of course, if the Grand Duke Marshall has a clear conscience , if you feel that you are just involved in a 'conspiracy', with your demeanor and mind, you will never refuse such caution, right? What's more, if you only verify key evidence, the investigation team will come and go again and again. It won't take long, and it will be over when you read books and play with birds at your residence~"

The other nobles suddenly realized that they admired the little girl's thoughtfulness for a while. After all, not everyone can detect this seemingly obvious loophole in the first place, and it only takes a few hours of hindsight to realize this kind of thing. It is possible to overthrow the whole situation.

If the Grand Duke Marshall really had a problem, then as long as it was only a short time at night, the investigation team might return without success.

Anyway, Grand Duke Crystal Wolf and Grand Duke Baroka, who are more inclined to Futaba and Fire Claw, didn't think of this. However, this negligence is not because they are mentally retarded, but just a matter of perspective...

To give a simple example, in some simple exams, it is difficult for those invigilators who are not sure whether children will cheat or not to catch cheaters who have been planning for a long time, are well prepared, well-planned, and do everything they can. This is not because the IQ of the invigilator is lower than that of the cheater, it’s just that those children who know very well that they will fail the exam are simply trying their best. Under the condition of high mental tension, they will never let go of any possibility , and these possibilities are often difficult for us to think about.

And those invigilators who hold the mentality of "these bastards will definitely cheat, I (my mother) must let you go home on your knees today" and regard children as class enemies often get it right, because they also don't know what to do. Letting go of any possibility is the kind of insanity like wanting to lift up girls' skirts to see if they have copied the answer on their laps.

Futaba, on the other hand, is obviously more insane on this issue.

however……

"Yes." Grand Duke Marshall agreed very easily, he nodded happily and said, "Anything is fine, as you said, I have a clear conscience~"

Futaba's eyes were about to pop out, her complexion was ashen, and her face seemed to be filled with disbelief.

And Emperor Clever just nodded slightly, and then asked her: "What else?"

Futaba bit her lips tightly, her body trembling slightly: "And...and...uh...what else...I..."

Clever blinked: "Miss Futaba?"

Grand Duke Marshall smiled smugly.

In the next second, he saw that the girl who was already a bit of a lizard was laughing even more proudly, and the previous expression of a liar had disappeared as if by magic.

"Also~ Since you have such a clear conscience, it shouldn't be a problem to change places or something? For example, how about moving to the Red Garden with the people you brought to live for a while?"

"..."

"Hey? What kind of expression do you have? The conditions here are pretty good. Grand Duke, you can live in the boudoir I used before. Hey~ It's a supreme treatment! You don't have to worry about it anymore, just wait It’s fine for your guards to come over, but I think it’s better to use the name of letting them come to pick you up~Of course, your belongings still need to be checked~”

"..."

"Huh? Why don't you talk anymore? Ah lah lah, is there anything you don't want to leave behind where you live now? No way? Will it? Is there really? What is there?"

"..."

"Wow, this expression! Is it something good that can make you have a 'clear conscience'? For example, a small tool that can send messages or messages remotely?"

"you……!"

"Have you seen it, his expression is so funny!"

"I……!"

"Desperate? Desperate? Desperate? Desperate? Desperate? Desperate? Haha~ It's not enough! It's not interesting enough! The expression is even more gray, bastard! Are you desperate? Are you really desperate? Ha, haha , hahahahahaha!!"
