Chapter 515 515. Inside the house
It's not that you can't kill people in Beiqiuyuan.
But there are restrictions on how to kill people.
The imperial law has no control over normal confrontations and fights. As long as the murderer is willing to bear the wrath of the forces behind the victim, then the killing is done.
But if the killing method is abnormal, such as destroying the teleportation point, it is a blatant defiance of the imperial law.
After all, the teleportation point is the basis for opening the Beiqiuyuan in the future. If it is allowed to be destroyed, resulting in the inability to open the Beiqiuyuan in the end, it will be an immeasurable loss for the empire.
Therefore, all forces in the empire have zero tolerance for acts such as destroying teleportation points.
Xia Feng never expected that he would encounter such a disappointing thing.
Now the situation is very clear. Someone pretended to be Theresa to assassinate Ye Likong, and happened to be seen secretly destroying the teleportation point. The crime was directly framed on Theresa.
Logically speaking, if they were to undergo normal inspections, the three major churches would definitely have the means to restore the truth, and it would not be difficult to clear their suspicion.
But unfortunately, there is no way Miss Mu will accept the investigation honestly, because she is really not Theresa.
Simply put, the two Theresa who appeared in Beiqiuyuan were both fake, and each had her own purpose.
The first Theresa is Miss Mu.
Who could be the second Theresa? Xia Feng narrowed his black pupils and glanced at the distant sky. The woman in the red cloak was standing at the back of the crowd, calmly looking at the surrounded elemental nuns.
Tang Ruyan.
No wonder this woman was acting so sneaky before, it turned out that she was deciding on the person to disguise and frame.
The reason why Tang Ruyan continued to chase Jiang Qiu'e was probably to confirm whether Jiang Qiu'e and Theresa were away from the crowd. Only then did she feel relieved and immediately returned to disguise herself as Theresa and start committing the crime.
What a mess! Xia Feng initially thought that this woman was Miss Mu, but he didn't expect that this woman was the one who wanted to harm Miss Mu.
Unfortunately, even if Xia Feng guessed the real culprit behind the scenes, he could do nothing.
Directly pointing out that there was something wrong with Tang Ruyan would certainly help the Vatican catch the real culprit, but Miss Mu would still have to be investigated as a suspect.
It's a dead end.
While Xia Feng was thinking quickly, the entire Vatican Square was blocked.
Mu Qingtong stood in the center wearing a nun's uniform. She raised her chin, which was half covered by the holy white hood, and looked around calmly.
Three cardinals, the Son of Justice, Yan Si, Jin Jili, and several phalanxes of knights in orderly array.
There are six powerful people in the Venerable Realm alone, and there is no escape.
Seeing this, Xia Feng's face gradually became solemn, and his mind was racing. What should he do? How could he break the impasse?
"Theresa, do you still want to resist?" O'Brien stood on a high place, his old voice indifferent.
But he had just finished speaking.
In the center of the square, a pitch-black formation suddenly unfolded under the feet of the nun wearing a holy white hood.
The ancient ink lines outlined a huge black moon symbol on the ground. The sacred and mysterious star-like black light suddenly lit up, and the nun directly transformed into a star-like spiritual light among these starlights and disappeared on the spot.
O'Brien's old eyes narrowed.
"Moon's Sacred Field." The Elemental Cardinal beside him chuckled. "O'Brien, it seems there's something fishy going on within your Black Moon Church."
Originally, when the Elemental Bishop saw that Theresa had problems, he felt a little troubled, but now it seems that this is not solely the fault of their Elemental Church.
There are also problems within the Black Moon Church.
O'Brien frowned.
The Moon's Sacred Field is an extra-large divine spiritual garment, a legendary A-grade spiritual garment that requires a sage level to construct.
Within the field, anyone who is granted authority has the ability to instantly teleport to a designated location within the field.
In the Black Moon Church, almost every believer who has been in the church for more than ten years will be given this ability. The difference is that ordinary believers are limited in the number of times they can use it, such as once or twice, while high-level believers such as bishops and even archbishops have the right to use it hundreds or thousands of times.
Basically, you can reach any public living area within the Vatican in an instant.
As for the three saints, they can be used unlimitedly.
The reason why the Black Moon Church branch in Area 20 set up this field was because during the previous war, when the Church of Elements was invaded, they relied on the strong mobility of the Moon's Sacred Magic Field to drive the Church of Elements away.
For this reason, in order to commemorate the victory of that year, the Black Moon Church in District 20 spares no expense in spending a considerable amount of resources every year to maintain the operation of this venue.
Of course, another reason is that this branch of the Holy See is very large, basically a small town. With this venue, life is also very convenient and practical.
But no matter what, if you want to obtain the field authority, only Cardinal O'Brien can grant the believers the authority.
Could Theresa be a Black Moon believer? O'Brien didn't understand what was going on with this woman.
But now is not the time to think about that.
"Orders are being passed to immediately blockade the Vatican and impose martial law!"
His face darkened slightly. After instructing the knight beside him, he turned to look at the guests and said, "I'm very sorry. I may have to delay you for a while."
"Although I dislike the Ye Li family, for the sake of fair truth, I can wait here for three days." The Son of Justice said expressionlessly, "I hope Your Excellency can give me a satisfactory answer."
After saying this, he slowly walked away.
Jin Jili, who was not far away, tutted in dissatisfaction: "Old man, we, the Goldfinch, are about to hold the 'Sparrow God Mountain Ceremony'. You'd better hurry up."
O'Brien narrowed his old eyes and stared quietly at the departing backs of the group.
After everyone had gone away, he slowly turned around. Jiang Qiu'e, Cha Naixue, and Olivia, three saints, were standing in the distance.
"Theresa may be disguised as a Black Moon believer, so I'd like to trouble the three saints to help investigate the Vatican for the next few days."
"Of course." Cha Naxue smiled slightly and turned away.
Olivia and Jiang Qiu'e looked indifferent. They didn't say anything, just nodded lightly and left.
Xia Feng followed Jiang Qiu'e on a tree-lined path. His dark eyes stared at the back of the elegant woman in a snow-white dress walking in front of him, as if he was thinking about something.
Cha Naixue naturally noticed the vague gaze behind her, but she ignored it with a barely noticeable curl of her lips.
She first went to the main hall of the Vatican to handle some matters. Half an hour later, she used the Moon's Holy Magic Field to teleport to the gate of her castle.
Walk through the flower garden, hall, and spiral staircase to the living room on the second floor.
Inside the low-key and elegant house, a silver-haired woman in holy nun's clothes was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Her beautiful golden eyes were lost in thought as she stared out the window quietly.
Cha Naixue walked to her side and watched the moonlight outside the window with her for a while.
The half moon hangs obliquely in the sky tonight, and there are rare stars shining in the dark sky, and the moonlight is very beautiful.
After a long time, the silver-haired woman tilted her head and looked at him, her beautiful eyes calm.
Cha Naxue smiled lightly: "Ms. Mu, I thought you didn't care at all."
Mu Qingtong frowned: "Speak."
The commanding tone still made Chanaixue feel unhappy, but she still suppressed her displeasure and smiled lightly: "Don't worry, he will come to see you later."
