Chapter 207
Chapter 207
Let's zoom back in a bit for a few minutes.
Ji Qiming knocked on Michael's door.
"What's the matter?" Michael opened the door, seeing that it was Ji Qiming, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Actually, I need your help." Ji Qiming smiled slightly, and handed out the Pope's secret order that was found in Croto's luggage.
When Michael saw the coat of arms on the secret order, his pupils shrank immediately: "Are you from the Holy See..." He took the secret order, opened it, read it quickly, and closed his eyes forcefully, "Do you need any help?"
──Very well, I gained Michael's trust!Now comes the most critical part...
"That's right,
As a tutor, I found that..." Ji Qiming dragged out his voice while carefully observing Michael's expression.
Michael stared at him with bated breath.
"...Cassandra is very suspicious. I'm afraid she is a subordinate sent by the devil."
"Cassandra?!" Michael exclaimed in surprise, and at the same time relaxed his tense expression, "That woman is really talking about it."
Ji Qiming nodded: "She is trying to have a bad influence on the people around her. I suspect that she has some ulterior motives. Please help me keep an eye on her, if she really becomes a threat... "Ji Qiming made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"...I see." Michael nodded solemnly.
When Michael closed the door, Ji Qiming almost broke out in a cold sweat. He wiped his face and quickly ran to the lounge on the second floor to join Wu Ming and the butler.
"Is it done?" Wu Ming asked.
"It's done." Ji Qiming nodded excitedly, "We guessed right,
Crotor died too early and didn't have a chance to come up with the secret order. Michael immediately believed my identity. "
"You didn't mention the princess, did you?" the butler asked worriedly.
"No." Ji Qiming shook his head vigorously.
"That's good," the butler breathed out. "The Holy See's secret decree can force Michael to become our sword, but he is a double-edged sword that is difficult to control. If you are not careful, you may hurt the princess."
"Next is the princess.
If I'm not wrong, Cassandra is now worried about her own safety after two people died. If this continues, she will very likely choose to take the risk and kill the princess to end everything quickly. " Wu Ming said, "We have to protect the princess first. "
The butler put down the teacup in his hand,
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he looked at Ji Qiming: "The class that has been suspended for a few days should start again, shouldn't it?"
"..." Ji Qiming was stunned—this is certainly a good excuse to keep the princess in their protection, but he doesn't know how to go to class!
Regardless of whether Ji Qiming can act as a qualified tutor, they still have to implement the plan. After receiving the notice from the housekeeper about the class,
Sure enough, Medea left her room with the book in her arms, and went to the lounge on the second floor as instructed.
"She's out." Wu Ming, who was watching everything from the shadow at the end of the corridor, watched Medea pass the corner and sent a private message to Ji Qiming. Before he could leave, he saw the door of the next room open. Now, Michael came out sneakily, opened the door of Medea's room secretly, and he hastily sent a private message to the two: "Michael has entered the princess room."
"He doesn't think he wants to do something to the princess!" Ji Qiming was taken aback. Could their plan to kill someone with a knife be self-defeating?
"I'm afraid it's the effect of Ji Qiming's status as the Holy See," the steward quickly replied to the private message, "Michael is not sure whether the Holy See knows Medea's identity, he may just want to investigate whether Medea is currently under the influence of the devil. The impact may also be uncertain. If he just entered the princess's room and didn't do anything to the princess who left the room, it means that it is not yet a time of life and death."
"Cassandra came out too, she knocked on the princess' door!" Wu Ming's next private message surprised the two of them again.
"Is this arranged?" Ji Qiming asked doubtfully.
"No, but it might be beneficial to us." The housekeeper had an idea, "Doraemon! Bring the princess to Wu Ming to watch together."
Ji Qiming understood immediately, as soon as he opened the door of the lounge, he saw Medea who came to him: "Teacher~"
Ji Qiming quickly took the book from Medea's hand and threw it into the lounge, took Medea's arm, "Go,
The teacher wants you to watch something. "
Medea was confused, but her good upbringing allowed her to obediently follow Ji Qiming through the secret passage to the library on the first floor, and then back to the corridor on the second floor from the stairs at the corner of the first floor.
"Teacher, what's the matter..." Medea asked suspiciously, but she fell silent under Ji Qiming's "shh" signal.
"Don't talk yet," Ji Qiming said seriously,
"Otherwise we're all in danger."
"...Could it be,
Is it related to the previous case? "Medea asked softly.
Ji Qiming nodded hurriedly.
Medea immediately became serious, stopped talking, and followed Ji Qiming to Wu Ming's side on tiptoe, holding up her skirt.
Wu Ming pointed to the front, and saw Michael talking to Cassandra in front of Medea's door.
Before the two of them could say a few words, Cassandra wanted to leave in a panic.
But Michael didn't give her a chance, he drew his long sword between the lightning and flint, and solved Cassandra's life with one move.
This scene was so surprising that Medea couldn't help but whisper "ah",
Wu Ming reacted extremely quickly,
Immediately covered her mouth,
Medea's exclamation was buried in Cassandra's dying scream,
It didn't attract Michael's attention.
They hid in the shadows at the end of the corridor, watching Michael throw Cassandra's body to the first floor in cold blood, tidy up the crime scene calmly, and then went back to the room to change the blood-stained clothes.Medea sat down on the ground, and said in disbelief, "My brother is actually a murderer..."
──Yes!This trick of borrowing a knife to kill people is simply too perfect!
Ji Qiming clenched his fists excitedly in his heart.
Originally, they had already made Michael suspicious of Cassandra through the secret order of the Holy See, but they didn't expect that idiot woman would run into her at this time, and instead confirmed what Ji Qiming said, Michael has always been a cold-blooded and cold-hearted Killing NPCs who are decisive and easily influenced by people's words, naturally did not need more evidence, so they did it directly.
And Medea, who witnessed all of this, although she has no memories of her previous life and does not know the entanglements between the demon world and the Holy See behind these incidents, but once she suspects that Michael is the instigator of these murders, she will no longer be afraid of her brothers and sisters in this life. He trusts Michael with family affection, as long as the princess doesn't go to Michael's side, Wu Ming will have a way to keep her safe.
Although it was a coincidence,
But this strategy has to be said to be a perfect success. It not only borrowed Michael's knife to kill Cassandra, but also took the opportunity to separate the two brothers and sisters with one stone. It was a complete victory.
