"Is this... maybe because he is a foreigner?"
"But isn't he accompanied by a Dragonborn?" Taxis said in a rather puzzled tone, "Even if he doesn't understand, that Dragonborn still doesn't understand? The cooperation proposed by the church should be for these people This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”
She didn't know much about the East, and judging from the limited information, etiquette there tended to be reserved, and it was customary to dodge an invitation first, so she gave the other party time to think. The problem is that there has been no response for two days, which is incredible.
It was hard for her to imagine anyone rejecting the benefits offered by the church.
"Did I not make it obvious enough?"
"No, you have made it very clear." Des Moines quickly interrupted, "Besides, do you really think his assistance will be of great help to the trial team?"
"An Eastern magician is the biggest anomaly in himself." When Taxis said this, she suddenly picked up the newspaper again and glanced at it a few times. "Wait a minute... pick the time when the new goods arrive at the port, prepare food in advance, and send the opposition to Isolated from the factory, the owner of Pagoda is Achie... "
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"The first group protest was able to be organized to this extent. It is not something that workers can do on their own initiative. And if you don't come early, you won't come late. Just a few days before Ambassador Xia arrived in the islands, the workers' protest turned from disorderly to For the sake of order, could there be some connection?”
Des Moines said in bewilderment, "You mean, he just finished bombing the Holy Palace with his front foot, and then went to assist the workers' strike with his back foot?"
"And both of them are related to Achie. It's such a coincidence, isn't it?"
The guardian knight pondered for a long time, "The following matter is just your guess..."
"If you ask him face to face, he probably won't admit it." Taxis's eyes were full of interest. "In this way, the people who are monitoring Achie will be withdrawn, and they can keep an eye on the Eastern envoy and take a closer look at him. Where did he go and what did he do?"
"But Achie is now the most suspect person, regardless of whether he really can?"
"This person is indeed suspected of purchasing talismans from the East, but as a demon-free person, he will never be the real culprit in the attack on the convoy - there is even a possibility that he was just pushed to the front desk, deliberately distracting the church's attention. If He has never revealed his clues, and you won't find anything if you keep staring." She said in one breath, "We have a limited number of people, so why not find someone more interesting to keep an eye on."
"What you said makes sense." Des Moines thought for a moment, "I will arrange for them to go to the Harbor Foreign Affairs Building later."
"In addition, I want to write an application order to the headquarters." The girl added.
"Then I'll contact the messenger in advance—"
"No, I want it to arrive at Shira as soon as possible." Taksis shook her head, "Let the local dragonborn deliver the message."
The guardian knight couldn't help but be stunned, "Do you want to apply for a compulsory trial order?"
It is indeed inconvenient for the trial team to arrest and interrogate some local powerful figures when they have not obtained conclusive evidence, but that does not mean that the church cannot do this.
As long as they can get authorization from the highest level.
Of course, if something goes wrong, the price paid will be extremely serious.
Seeing that the other party did not deny it, Des Moines immediately dissuaded him, "Sir Yongyi, please think twice!"
To put it bluntly, if this case is handled well, it is a merit, and if it is not handled well, it cannot be regarded as a stain, for Taksis. With Yongyi's age and ability, his future future is completely limitless, and there is no need to be so rash. In his eyes, none of the ten Holy Sons are as important as Taksis, and most people in the headquarters also think so.
If an arrest error is discovered, she will not only have to accept punishment, but it will also be basically impossible for her to get promoted again in her life. Such consequences are unacceptable to Des Moines.
As the most loyal guardian, he naturally had to stop him.
"When have you ever really succeeded in stopping me?" Taxis seemed to have guessed his thoughts. "If my suspicion only accounts for 70%, then the Eastern Ambassador's suspicion makes up for the remaining 30%. . He must have known some information that I haven’t mastered yet, so he would target Achie like this. Since everyone has the same opinion, isn’t it obvious whether Achie is worth arresting?"
The reason why he can be used as a cover is that it is expected that the trial team will have its hands tied and cannot easily touch him.
Therefore, once the thunderous method is used and the protective umbrella is instantly pulled out, it will definitely disrupt the pace of the real murderer and force him to reveal his flaws.
"The Church of Hera has obviously received blessings from the gods, but its influence has been declining in recent years. It is precisely because of the little concessions made by all parties. There are nobles, mages and chambers of commerce inside... Outside there are Natantine, Lan Gith and many kingdoms are squeezing, but the church leaders are turning a deaf ear. The more this happens, the situation will only get worse." Taxis's voice suddenly became extremely solemn, "If you want to make changes, you must deal with those who dare to Those who cross the line will be dealt with the harshest blows. This matter concerns the reputation and future of the church, so why risk my own future?"
"Lord Holy Wings..." Des Moines felt a surge of heat in his heart. Even if he didn't agree with her opinion, he would be moved by this will.
"I can give everything for the church." She said word by word, "And this decision may not be wrong. I believe in my own judgment. Hera will also protect us."
"Yes, I understand!" Des Moines accepted the order, "No matter what the outcome of the investigation is, I will bear it with you!"
A smile appeared on Taksis's lips, "Don't worry, even if you want to escape, I won't let you go."
It only takes the Dragonborn one day to fly to Shira, and with the deliberations within the Tribunal, it takes up to three days for the answer to be delivered to him.
By then, she wanted to see what other ways the real murderer could use to escape the church's judgment.
…
The impact of the Pagoda Strike goes far beyond becoming the talk of the streets.
It soon spread to other factory areas and caused a stir among the employees.
The supervisors of each factory were shocked to find that when they inspected the factory, they no longer received fearful looks, but an eager look.
If anyone makes statistics, they will find that the frequency of worker protests reached a new peak on this day, more than two or three times higher than in the past.
The factory did not hesitate and immediately imposed the most severe suppression.
This matter has become a big deal, and no big businessman wants his factory to become the next Baiguoyuan.
But the success of Baiguoyuan has become the goal in the hearts of all employees.
Before this, they had never thought about how to confront the master who controlled their own destiny.
But now, they have a path that, although full of thorns, has a very clear direction.
Once the wildfire in your heart is ignited, it is difficult to extinguish.
This spark is spreading in the hearts of every employee at an incredible speed.
