After a moment the first member of parliament arrived. It was Angeliya who had been punished by Dudian before.
Angelika was stunned as she saw Dean sitting alone in the empty conference room. She signaled the attendants to retreat as she gently entered the conference room: "Greetings elder."
Dudian was lost in thought as he looked at the oil paintings on the wall.
Angelia bumped into a wall and covered her face with a smile. She pulled out a chair and sat down.
The other members of parliament arrived one after another. Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. There were fourteen people in the conference room. There was one person who hadn't come except for Amy who was imprisoned by Dudian.
Dudian knew the whereabouts of the remaining person. He had gone to the Sword King's camp.
Therefore, when everyone was present, he withdrew his gaze and slowly said, "I'm sure everyone has heard about what happened yesterday."
Everyone looked at each other.
Tumaco, who knew that he had left a bad impression on Roland, said, "Sir, I've heard about this. Fortunately, you weren't injured. Otherwise, we would have blown a hole in the Luminous Church's branch!"
Dudian indifferently said: "I'm afraid there isn't anyone in the outer wall who can hurt me."
Tom smiled as he thought of Dean's extraordinary strength: "That's true."
"The news of this operation is confidential. Only a few people know about it." Dean's eyes were indifferent as he slowly glanced at everyone.
Everyone's face slightly changed.
An old man next to him said: "Elder, do you suspect that someone betrayed you?"
"Betrayed the elder?"
"How could it be! Who would be so bold!"
Several people were filled with indignation.
Dudian raised his hand to stop the anger: "The person who leaked the news has been found." He gently snapped his fingers.
The door of the conference room was pushed open. Hawkeye came in with the scapegoat and threw him to the ground.
Dudian turned the chair and looked at the youth: "Tell everyone, who instructed you to betray me?"
The youth's body trembled. He felt like a frog that had fallen into a snake's mouth. He trembled as he said: "Elder, elder, it's Amy … Amy … Amy …"
Hearing this, everyone was moved.
"Amy? How is that possible? "
"She wasn't …"
Everyone looked at each other.
"I heard that Representative Amy was dissatisfied with the elder's punishment yesterday and tried to kill you with poison in your office. She was imprisoned by you. It's likely that she harbored a grudge against you and ordered her people to instigate this man to betray you," the old man said.
He waved his hand to ask Hawkeye to drag the man away: "Amy poisoned me and was ready to take my head to Pluto. Now she secretly retaliated. I just wanted to punish her a little but I didn't expect her to make mistakes again and again! From today onwards, Councilor Amy's lifetime right to participate in the council will be revoked. At the same time, all of Councilor Amy's wealth will be confiscated and used for the construction of the 9th district! "
"From now on, anyone who colludes with Amy will be punished the same way!"
"Does anyone have any objections?"
Looking at Dean's calm and compelling eyes, everyone was silent at the same time.
"I agree with the elder's suggestion!" Tomak took the lead and said.
"I agree too!"
"She poisoned the elder! That's an unforgivable crime! I agree!"
Everyone raised their hands one after another. In the end, only four people remained silent and did not express their opinions.
Dean remembered the names of the four people and announced the end of the meeting.
Dean told Hawkeye to deal with the youth after returning to the office.
Hawkeye didn't find it surprising as he retreated.
At the moment, dawn had just risen and the sky was bright. Dean asked the servant outside to bring breakfast and the morning newspaper.
"Jin, try it." Dean passed the milk and bread to Neuss.
Neuss poured the milk into a small cup and took a sip. He tore a small piece of bread and ate it: "Elder, it's not poisonous."
Dean nodded slightly as he picked up the newspaper and began to eat.
"Guangming Daily-"
"At 7: 20 p.m. yesterday, an evil member of the Devil Cult appeared on the streets of Falkland and brutally killed the history professor of Loy Academy, Marley. The Radiant Knights patrolling nearby noticed the commotion and rushed to the scene. However, they were still a step too late and failed to save Mr. Marley's life …"
"There were ten people who killed professor Marley. One of them was a three-star alchemist. All of them have been captured and will be purified by the Holy Flame in Oak Square at 9 o 'clock this morning!"
"Captain 'Mason' led the team and personally captured the evil alchemist. He was awarded a grand knight medal …"
Dudian frowned when he saw the name 'Mark'. The name was familiar. The first time he heard the name was during the scavenger trial. Mark had beheaded the captured alchemist. He was the son of the Mel family's patriarch, Mark. He was also Sarah's half-brother!
"Mel family …" Dean narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect that the family that should have disappeared from his sight would appear in front of him again. Moreover, the task given to him by the Pope was to support the remnants of the Mel family!
"The old Pope knows my identity and the hatred between the Mel family and me. What is he trying to tell me by giving me such a task? Is he trying to forget the hatred of the past? Or is he simply … beating me? " Dean clenched the newspaper. His eyes flashed with killing intent. He didn't care about the matters of the Mel family. Ever since he was summoned to the inner wall he had regarded the Monastery as his enemy. He wanted to spend all his time planning a counterattack. He didn't expect that a descendant of the Mel family would be put in an important position by the old Pope!
Moreover the old Pope wanted him to be a stepping stone!
"The Monastery wants me to hide my identity and cooperate with you. But you want me to sacrifice my men to help my enemies. Hmph! Very good!" Dean narrowed his eyes slightly, and the murderous look in his eyes gradually converged into his pupils. His expression also returned to indifference, and no one could tell whether he was happy or angry.
He turned the newspaper and continued to read other news.
As Sergei said, there was no news or reports about him in the newspaper. It was as if he had completely disappeared from the world. He suddenly felt that it was so easy to erase a person. As long as the whole world united and did not recognize his existence, it would be fine.
Who could fight against the whole world?
"Oh …" Dean gently smiled and slowly put down the newspaper. When he was about to look up, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a corner of the newspaper. His eyes suddenly froze, and then his breathing became rapid.
