In the small confession room, Colin sat opposite Prince Lexi.
Neither of them spoke, and a palpitating silence brewed in the air.
Under the scrutiny of this paladin, Colin felt that all the secrets in his heart seemed to be invisible.
The faint voice of the choir outside became more and more distant, and finally disappeared completely, as if the confession room was enclosed in another space.
The aura on Prince Laixi's body was like an abyss like an ocean, even if he just sat beside him, he still had the illusion that he would be swallowed by huge waves at any time.
Cold sweat oozed from Ke Lin's forehead, and he couldn't help but said, "His Royal Highness, are you here to confess?"
Prince Lexi looked at Colin expressionlessly, and finally said after a while: "What did you find?"
Ke Lin sighed secretly, and had no choice but to confess honestly: "I smell blood."
"The smell of blood?" Prince Lexi's nose twitched a few times, but he didn't know if he could smell it.
Ke Lin quickly added: "It's very faint, but I'm sure it's the smell of blood."
Prince Lexi stared into Colin's eyes and asked, "Then why do you think there is blood?"
Colin thought for a while and said carefully: "The pastor said before that the strange knight was wrapped in a white cloth and looked seriously injured. Maybe this is why there is a faint smell of blood."
"Really?" Prince Lexi said lightly, "If it's because of this, why did you return alone in the middle of the night?"
Collin was at a loss for words.
Seeing Prince Lexi's increasingly dangerous eyes, Colin had no choice but to say frankly, "Because I've smelled a similar smell of blood in another place before."
"where?"
Ke Lin licked his lips and said with a smile, "Swallow Butterfly Castle."
"Goldtail swallowtail, the Morrison family?"
"Yes."
Prince Lexi narrowed his eyes, as if he was examining whether Colin had lied this time.
Colin looked back calmly, this time he really didn't lie.
"Since you have smelled a similar smell in Swallow Butterfly Castle, have you checked the source?"
Colin nodded, and half-truthfully said: "I checked, I sneaked into the basement of the clock tower of the Swallow Butterfly Castle, and found a terrible pool of blood there!"
"Blood pool?" Prince Lexi finally had a look of surprise on his face.
"Yes. But I was worried about alarming the Morrison family, so I came out immediately without further investigation. Maybe... you can go and investigate carefully."
Colin was going to encourage the paladin boss to test the mysterious and weird Morrison family.
It would be the best if the old background of this family can be revealed.
Prince Lexi bowed his head in silence, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing that the other party remained silent, Ke Lin plucked up his courage and asked, "Your Highness, I would like to ask, why did you appear here? Could it be because of Bishop John's disappearance?"
Prince Lexi raised his head again, and said flatly, "It was my lord who guided me here."
The corner of Colin's mouth twitched slightly, feeling speechless for a while.
But immediately, Colin realized that perhaps Prince Lacey was not trying to perfuse him, but had really received the guidance of the gods...
After all, there might really be some kind of special connection between the Paladin and the Lord of Radiance.
So, Ke Lin asked again: "Then what else has my lord revealed to you? Tell me, maybe I can help you refer to it."
However, this time, Prince Leahy did not answer, but just watched Ke Lin silently, until he felt hairy all over his body.
Just when Colin thought he had offended Prince Leahy and was about to leave and run away, the other party suddenly said:
"My Lord's guidance tells me that this Bishop John is related to the person who framed me."
"Framed?" Colin asked thoughtfully.
"Yes. I didn't kill the Laytom consul. Someone framed me."
"What! Who is so bold?" Colin tried his best to pretend to be shocked.
Prince Lexi seemed to see through Colin's disguise, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he asked, "You already knew that, didn't you?"
Ke Lin coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Actually... it's just some speculation, after all, the situation at that time was a bit deliberate no matter how you look at it.
Moreover, I also believe that with your character, you will never do such a despicable act. "
Prince Lexi's eyes softened a little, wondering if he felt that he had finally found someone who understood him.
He nodded in agreement, and said, "That's right, so now I need to find the evidence that framed me and restore my reputation."
"Then what does this have to do with Bishop John?" Colin wondered.
Prince Lehi shook his head and did not speak.
Ke Lin was a little uncertain whether it had anything to do with the other party not knowing, or whether he didn't want to tell him.
"Then do you have any doubts about the person who framed you?" Colin asked tentatively.
Prince Lexi glanced at Colin, and said a name that shocked him: "Mr.
"Mr.... Mister?" Colin's eyes widened, "But didn't you kill him?"
Originally, Colin thought that Prince Lehi would name Emperor Reinhardt or Queen Midella, but he never expected that the other party would name a dead person.
"That's right, I did see him turn into dust with my own eyes, but it doesn't necessarily mean that he is dead."
Colin touched the tip of his nose. If someone said something like that, he would definitely rant, but facing the paladin... well, if you think that those who are bombarded to the point of death may not necessarily die, then they may not necessarily die.
"In the past few years, I have rarely made a move. I only used the 'judgment' move when facing Mr. Yu. I suspect that he used some kind of arcane technique to store my attack and then use it Come and kill the Regent of Lytom."
Colin blinked and realized that the paladin prince had a big brain...
However, if there is such a magical arcane technique, it can indeed explain how Queen Midella framed Prince Lexi.
Perhaps, it is really possible for Mr. Ji to develop such an arcane technique, after all, this is the guy who developed the magical forbidden spell "Eye of Judgment".
Prince Leahy looked into Colin's eyes and said seriously: "I know you may not be on the same side as me, but the existence of Mr. Li is also a great hidden danger to the northern border, so if you have Please inform me of his news as soon as possible."
"Okay." Colin agreed without hesitation.
Because what Prince Laixi said was right, if Mr. Xie was really alive, then Colin must be one of the people who most wanted to kill him.
There is no true peace in the North with this guy around for a day.
Seeing that Colin agreed to come down, Prince Lexi nodded, indicating that he could leave.
Colin heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly stood up to salute, but just as he was about to open the door, Prince Lexi's voice sounded again:
"By the way, I will give you one last piece of advice."
Ke Lin turned his head, smiled respectfully and said, "Please tell me."
"Be careful of the queen, this is a dangerous woman."
After saying this, Prince Lehi closed his eyes without further explanation.
And he didn't seem to care whether Colin listened to the advice or not.
Colin touched his nose, thinking that this could not be a divorce.
But... this method is too rough.
"Thank you, Your Highness, I will definitely keep your advice in mind!"
