Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 300: The aftermath of the turmoil (Part )

"So, Ives, are you saying that all the actions of Water Commissioner Helen Josephine are the result of her spontaneous choices?"

The next morning, four sage assistants, including Alina and Avis, gathered at the South Candle Workshop to begin dealing with some of the repercussions of the "Word of Silence" incident.

"Yes, under those restrictions, I think no one should be able to lie."

Although he used words that left room for maneuver, Ives's words were full of confidence.

"Okay, I understand." Without any hesitation, Alina nodded and then asked further about the previous question, "So have you figured out her motive for doing this?"

"This is some investigation about her personal experience," responded this time from Evan Leander, the owner of the Southern Candle Workshop. After making the same small nod, he immediately stood up and handed the information at hand to the other three people present one by one.

"It turns out that Helen and Conrad knew each other before. No wonder she did what she did."

After carefully reading the information in his hand, the last of the four sage assistants, Blair Clark of the Earth Mallow, couldn't help but sigh.

"Isn't this kind of thing obvious? So shouldn't our chairman of the committee investigate this kind of thing in advance?" Without giving the assistant of the Earth Sage a chance to refute, Alina quickly spoke on her own. Go on, "Don't ask me about my qualifications. Since you became the chairman of the Academic Evaluation Committee 8 years ago, I think it is the most basic thing to confirm which people around you are trustworthy and which are not trustworthy, right?"

"Yes, I will pay attention to it in the future. Thank you for the reminder, Alina."

Without rebutting a word, Blair accepted the criticism very calmly.

Such obedience can't help but surprise Ives, who only officially returned this morning. Of course, although he was surprised that the senior Earth Mallow, who should have the most say, would bow to Alina and compromise, he was even more surprised that Alina could express her opinions so freely in the presence of Nanzhu Workshop.

So, does this mean that Suzuran-senpai is confident that everyone present will not have a negative impact on her external reputation?

If this is the case, then the relationship between her and the owner of Nanzhu Workshop is very intriguing.

If there was a cover-up of superior-subordinate relationship before, then now...

"What are you thinking about, Avis, can you tell me?"

Ives was about to delve deeper into the relationship between the two, when suddenly Alina's curious words with a hint of warning came to his ears.

So, without a trace of hesitation, Ives hurriedly gathered his thoughts and acted correctly, and expressed his opinion with a guilty conscience: "It is true that Ms. Josephine's past can be investigated in advance, but I think that it would make her willing to give up for 10 years." The reason why the business went to help Conrad should not be as simple as described in the text of the information."

"Interesting idea, can you tell me more about it?"

Not paying any attention to the young man's abnormal state switch before, Alina put away the [Voice Transmission] magic and continued to ask curiously.

"As Mr. Blair said before, Ms. Josephine also appeared in the Zacks fire 8 years ago. Combined with the situation at that time, and the statement of the past relationship between the two in the contact information, I have a feeling that it is not mature. Hypothesis," feeling the scrutinizing gazes of the other three people on him, Ives calmed down his somewhat fluctuating emotions, and then continued to say calmly, "Maybe the cooperation between her and Conrad has already begun. It existed eight years ago, or even earlier.”

"So, can we boldly assume a possibility, a possibility that two people were planning this incident as early as 8 years ago or even earlier."

Realizing that the young man's euphemistic words contained deep information, Alina thoughtfully completed the bold guess for him.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

After a brief silence, Ivan took the lead to break the wordless silence and agreed.

"What about Blair?"

Alina then looked at the assistant of the Earth Sage opposite and asked for advice.

"I think this possibility is not high. After all, there are too many unexpected factors to consider. Unless they have known the undead magician who can help them complete the plan, it will be difficult for such a plan to succeed..." Blair gave his thoughts with disapproval, but noticed that the three people present were unanimously looking at him with scrutiny, and he couldn't help but feel guilty, so he did not mention any more speculations.

"Very good, keep talking."

"No, let's discuss how to deal with the two committee members. As you know, it is unrealistic to consider so many uncertain factors in advance."

"Okay, now let's talk about the opinions of the committee members, Ives."

Seeing that Blair opposite seemed really unwilling to talk about it, Alina simply gave up asking and turned her attention to the sage assistant of the North District of Water next to her.

"First of all, it is about the punishment of former Fire Commissioner Raymond Coleman. Because Mr. Coleman was not aware of the initial frame-up of charges and the subsequent traps laid against the other committee members, the remaining four committee members It was unanimously decided to only hold him accountable for being on the wrong team.”

Seeing that the other two people had no objection, Ives couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued to convey the thoughts of the four committee members.

"Then there is Ms. Josephine, the main accomplice of this 'Words of Silence' incident. The unanimous opinion of the four committee members is to permanently expel her as a member of the assessment committee, and Lord Tracy will personally decide the subsequent crime level."

"In other words, the punishment for the Fire Commissioner is to transfer him from the Earth South District on the grounds of external communication, but retain his qualifications for subsequent committee elections?"

Blair uncertainly confirmed the answer he had thought of to the young man opposite.

"Yes."

Avis nodded slightly in confirmation.

"That's good," Blair breathed an obvious sigh of relief, and then turned his attention to the next topic with relief, "So how is the teacher doing now? Is there any way to remove the [Sleep] magic that was cast on him? ?”

"Well, the final result will be produced today."

Ivan answered succinctly.

"Then the only question left is Sky Scholars and the Word of Silence. Do you have any thoughts on this?"

After finishing asking about the current situation of the Earth Sage, Blair rechecked the plan in his hand and raised the last two issues to the other three people present.

"Regarding these two matters, Commissioner Inzat asked me to help convey that he is willing to secretly assist us on behalf of the Sky Scholars to investigate the whereabouts of 'The Word of Silence' midway. This is the result obtained after several of their 'cornerstones' voted. Of course It also means witness.”

As if she had expected that Blair would ask this question, Alina immediately responded before the other two people expressed their opinions.

"So are they trustworthy?"

Having learned the lesson from the Water Commissioner, Blair cautiously asked more questions this time.

"As long as we do not investigate the witnesses, they will not be our enemies. As for the radical elements in their school, Inzat said that he will deal with it. Of course, in order to show the sincerity of cooperation, he has given You can take a look at the identity information of the four 'Sky Cornerstones' including him."

After saying that, Alina took out a confidential document from the temporary space storage bracelet and handed it to the other three sage assistants present one by one.

"it is good."

The three sage assistants calmly took the encrypted document and opened it to read. However, after only one reading, they all showed similar expressions of shock because of the words above...
