Robert spoke slowly in the thick smoke. Listening to his words, Harjeta thought for a while and then continued speaking.
"The church is intervening in the investigation... that means we are no longer fully in control of the investigation. What if the church finds some clues that show we are the ones who are responsible for the case..."
"Oh, you don't have to worry too much about this. For cases like this, the organization sent by the church to investigate is the Inquisition. Within the church, the Grand Inquisitor Kramarco is the most extreme figure. He is even tougher than the Knights. He has deep conflicts with the Redemptionists. In the matter of Adus, he advocates the destruction of Shadi, who has too close ties with heretics, regardless of whether he is willing to repent.
"If the Inquisition comes to investigate this case, the direction of their investigation is predictable. They will conduct investigations and interrogations according to the results they want to achieve. We only need to cooperate with them in the process to get some decisive evidence... Haha, if our plan goes perfectly, even this process of cooperating with them is actually unnecessary...
"In the final analysis, the biggest purpose of our action this time is just to provide an opportunity, to give those people in the church who are uncomfortable with the little nun an opportunity. They will take advantage of this opportunity to accomplish what they want. Although this opportunity is smaller than expected, it is enough for them to seize it..."
In the smoke of cigar, Robert spoke slowly. Listening to Robert's words, Harjeta nodded silently. At this moment, Robert turned his head to look at the door of the bed room, and soon there was a knock on the back door.
"Mr. Robert, the reporters who are scheduled to interview us today have already arrived downstairs. When can we let them in?"
"Oh, I see... Let's wait another fifteen minutes."
As he spoke, Robert put out his cigar in the ashtray on the cabinet beside him, and then spoke to Harjeta.
"Bring me my bloody bandage, and clean up the ashtray. Oh, and open the window. Use a talisman to blow away the smoke."
"Understood." After listening to Robert's instructions, Harjeta did not delay and immediately started to do it.
…
On the other side, in Saint Lin Mountain, in Amanda's room.
In the huge office, Amanda, dressed in red, was sitting behind her desk, looking at the report on the table with a serious expression. Opposite her was a translucent nun who looked like a ghost.
"How audacious... In short, how audacious, those people from Kankedal... actually dared to do such a thing..."
Amanda murmured as she looked at the report in front of her. Her seemingly calm tone revealed a rare anger in her voice. The nun opposite her spoke slowly.
"According to the latest report from Sister Vanya, the assassination that took place yesterday is extremely suspicious. It is very likely that the local forces of Kankedal, led by Robert Brown, framed the special envoys. Considering the power represented by Robert Brown, this incident may have been instructed to a certain extent by major continental powers such as Farajo..."
Listening to the nun's words, Amanda took a deep breath and then continued speaking.
"Farajo... Ivig... Castilla... Put... These countries have important interests in Adus and even the entire Northern Ukraine. They are afraid that the Adus revolution will spread and affect them and suck blood from other places, so they did this. They are really merciless and greedy... They actually put their own interests above the missionary work in Northern Ukraine... A group of vampires..."
"According to the latest news, Lord Kramar has sent a special investigation team to Kankedar half an hour ago to investigate yesterday's assassination. The investigation team has been given a high-level on-the-spot trial authority, and it seems that they want to quickly resolve and determine the matter there."
The translucent nun then spoke slowly to Amanda. Listening to the nun's words, Amanda snorted in response.
"The right to trial on the spot? Humph... You can't wait any longer. He has been waiting for such an opportunity for a long time. Now that he has it, why doesn't he take advantage of it?
"That is to say, now that the Holy See is not here, the power of the cardinals and the church has been strengthened. Otherwise, he would not dare to do this under normal circumstances."
Holding her forehead, Amanda spoke slowly. Because of the temporary departure of the Holy See, the Cardinals' Council, which had been getting along well, began to split. The gap between cardinals and canons widened, and the internal conflicts of the entire church began to intensify. There had never been such an internal strife as today before.
"Sir, what should we do now..."
At this time, the nun asked Amanda a question, and Amanda was silent for a while, then slowly spoke.
"We can't just sit there like this, Evie. Go to Kankerdar now to protect Sister Vanya. Make sure that Sister Vanya is not arrested and interrogated by the Inquisition's investigation team. You can protect the rest of the special envoys as much as possible, but Sister Vanya must not fall into their hands."
"I understand..." After listening to Amanda's words, the translucent nun nodded and seemed to be about to leave, but then she remembered something and reminded her.
"Oh, there is one more thing. After you kill Kankedal, you should also pay attention to Sister Vanya herself..."
Amanda continued, and there was a deep meaning in her eyes as she looked at the nun.
