It's not the protagonist, what does it matter if you are trapped in the Shura field

Chapter 470 Loveli: The criminal is actually me?
Seeing Luo Wei's appearance, Luo Fuli was obviously a little depressed.

They had never encountered such a passive situation before. Their current survival was completely dependent on the thoughts of an unknown enemy. She really didn't like the feeling she had now.

"How is it going? Are there any results from the Knights' investigation?" asked Luo Wei.

Lovely shook her head.

I sent people out to investigate for two days but didn't find anything. The information provided by Wang Cheng was like a headless fly, and I had no idea where to start.

Although I don’t want to admit it.

She is now considering bringing her father, the king, and her mother to the manor, even if this will further undermine the trust of the people.

"What about you?" she asked, looking up.

She didn't want to raise her expectations too high, but when she saw Luo Wei shaking his head, Luo Fuli couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Yeah……

It's not like I haven't heard the knight mention that he has been investigating carefully these past two days. If even he can't do anything about it, then the other party is probably hiding even deeper than we imagined.

The only news released by the royal city was that the magic device for detonation had been set up a few days ago, and that several maids said they saw a suspicious person with a strange accent that day. However, after investigation, there was no such person in the palace, and the rest was all a mystery.

"Not bad," Luo Wei looked at her with some satisfaction, "At this point, you haven't thought about canceling the elite competition."

Lovelli showed a rather resentful expression.

"Send the contestants back to their country and admit defeat to the other side," she said, raising her eyes. "I can do that. But if I do that, I might be expelled from Melendell again for dereliction of duty in such a serious situation. Do you think I'm stupid? No matter if I'm willing or not, I can't get out of this situation just by wanting to."

Did he really think she couldn't weigh the pros and cons? By then, everything they had done in the past would be in vain, and the chance to rescue their father would no longer exist, let alone the conspiracy of the third world.

But that's what she really wanted to say.

It wasn't because of anything else, but because I got inexplicably angry seeing him acting like he wasn't involved.

Why doesn't this guy look anxious at all? !
Of course, she knew that the whole thing couldn't be blamed on him, and he was indeed working hard outside to investigate, but when did this guy do things so strictly? In the past few days, he seemed to have become a different person. Where had he suffered such a loss in the Beast Tide and the Craftsmen's Association? Where were his previous conspiracies and tricks? Where were his tricks to scheme against others? Where did he go? ?

Change back to me quickly, you bastard!

"Did you really not find any traces at all?" Lovely asked uncertainly.

"Well... there is a snack street in the arena area that tastes pretty good. After we sent some to other people, the knights who tasted it all praised it highly."

"?"

Isn't this just a job of serving tea and water? !

"Don't worry, don't worry," Luo Wei looked at her calmly, "You've gained something. You've been working hard for two days. Maybe you'll have some ideas if you change your mood."

"So what did you find out? Tell me now!"

"Well... I should have told you earlier. Just like the conclusion announced by the Royal City today, the detonating magic device was set up a few days ago, and it was not planned by someone inside the Royal Palace."

Lovely frowned. Since the Knights of the Royal City have announced it, isn't it the same as not saying anything?

"Where did you find that?" She leaned forward, deciding to look for clues at the source.

"My guess."

"??"

Lovelli pulled herself up again suspiciously.

You, you are not going to use the results of the investigation in the royal city to fool me, are you?

After a moment of silence, Luo Wei looked at her and suddenly changed his tone: "You seem to be looking forward to me solving this problem?"

"...!"

For no apparent reason, Lovell got goosebumps all over her body.

She was familiar with him as he was, and at the same time, this tone of voice made her shudder, making her realize that she would never be able to control the danger of him, and seeking solutions from him would be like making a deal with the devil.

"...As long as you can do it, you can choose any reward you want."

It seemed like the two hadn't had a heart-to-heart talk for a long time, and sometimes Lovell wondered if she had ignored his feelings.

But I really need him.

So come back...

Luo Wei walked forward to the table, his eyes clear as if he had taken off his disguise, and he picked up an apple and tossed it in his hand.

"While everyone is seeing this as a disaster, in my opinion, this fire is not necessarily a bad thing."

"what?"

Lovely looked at him in shock.

The palace was blown up, the murderer's whereabouts are unknown, and the whole city is shrouded in shadow. How can this be a good thing? !
Luo Wei was not surprised by her reaction. In fact, she did not realize that she was also part of the plan. He said those words just now to seize the initiative because what he was going to say next would subvert her cognition.

"You have this idea only because the murderer still exists," Luo Wei looked at her coldly, "If we eliminate the murderer, will you still think this is a bad thing?"

"What's the meaning?"

"It's very simple," Luo Wei continued to toss the apple in his hand nonchalantly. "After this incident, the palace's security has become several times stricter than before. With the precautions, it will be extremely difficult for others to do similar things. Even the Royal City Knights can't be stupid enough to make a second mistake in a row. The palace will only be much safer than before. This is one reason."

"Secondly, because of this incident, other forces and people who originally had such plans will feel that there are allies with the same goal as them. It is understandable that they would want to seek cooperation before executing their own plans, right? Otherwise, it would be difficult for them to achieve the same effect under the martial law of the Royal City according to their own plans. Even if they did, it would only be a poor imitation. Do you think it is meaningful for the knights of Aselant to rush into the Royal City and set fire to it now? People will only remember the first one who succeeded more successfully. If this group of people rush in now, not only will they not be able to prove their will, but if they fail, they will be laughed at by the whole continent. Therefore, as long as the murderer is never found, this group of people's plan will never be implemented."

"Wait...wait..." Lovely hurriedly stopped him. What did she hear at first? Erasing the murderer's existence? ? When did he master this ability?

I understand what he said, but aren't these things that should be considered later? How did he skip the murderer's plan bankruptcy and go straight to the revitalization stage?

Is this some supernatural power?

"Wait for me to finish," Luo Wei ignored her questioning, "The third point is also the most crucial and most important part for you."

"..."

Loveley opened her mouth and decided to just listen to what she thought was some supernatural trick.

But she still wanted to ask, "What does this have to do with me?"

"Of course it matters," Luo Wei said with a cold laugh. "Now the envoys of various countries are restrained and dare not take any action. Why do you think this is?"

"Because they are afraid that Lion Court will say they did it?" Lovely replied with a frown.

This was a matter of course. The delegation participating in the Blue Elite Tournament had only been in the capital for a few days when something like this happened. Everyone would think that this group of people were the biggest suspects, and even she thought so, so she wanted to cancel the elite tournament to solve the problem. There were also people in the capital who marched to the gate of the annex, claiming that they should hand over the prisoner and get out.

"So," Luo Wei narrowed his eyes, "Now these people are waiting for you to show your attitude. They are hiding and not daring to show their heads. Blowing up the Lion Palace is a crime that no country on the continent can afford. Now, as long as you give them a way to prove themselves, these people will work hard for you to clear themselves of suspicion."

"...!!"

Lovell opened her mouth in astonishment.

How did she come up with this idea? She had never imagined such a thing.

"Don't you think it's efficient to patch up the holes, take precautions, and ease the conflicts between them bit by bit?" Luo Wei looked at her and said meaningfully, "Instead of covering the fire with blankets everywhere, it's better to let them burn in the same direction at the same time."

"..."

Lovell didn't react for a long time.

All she had thought about before was preventing this group of people from causing any trouble during the start of the competition, but now this guy was telling her... was asking her to personally employ these people?

"Since you're afraid that this power will be used by others," Luo Wei saw her thoughts and said, "It doesn't matter who uses it. You are the organizer of the elite competition. Don't forget that you are here to seize power."

"...!"

Hearing these words, Loveli found it difficult to calm down her breathing.

What he said was indeed correct. Since Shiyuan needed these people to give an explanation, it would be most appropriate for them, as the organizer of the elite competition, to come forward. There was no reason for anyone else to interfere.

"You... intend to make the envoys of various countries my power?" She said this answer in disbelief.

"Ah."

Luo Wei responded briefly, and Luo Fuli felt a thousand waves surging in her.

Her mind was buzzing, but she was not so immersed in it that she ignored the most critical factor. Everything seemed beautiful at the moment, but the premise was impossible to achieve.

"If you don't catch the criminal, how can you guarantee that the other party won't launch a second attack?"

"If you catch the criminal, these people will be cleared of suspicion and won't be used by you anymore."

"?"

Isn't this a paradox?

To realize the plan, prisoners must exist, and if prisoners exist, their current safety cannot be guaranteed.

"Why do you say that as if you already know who did it?" Lovely frowned at him, "Didn't you find out nothing?"

"I really didn't find out anything, because there was no need to find out. I knew who did it from the beginning." Luo Wei said as he tossed the apple.

"what?"

Luo Fuli's expression became very strange, his head was buzzing, and it took him a long time to utter a word.

"Who did it?"

"Do you want to know so much?" Luo Wei took the apple in his hand and looked at her meaningfully.

"Hurry up and tell me!" Loveli was anxious. She didn't know that there was no way she could calm down.

"Okay then," Luo Wei slowly placed the apple on the table, stood up and looked at her.

"Do you have any explanation for allowing your subordinates to place magic detonators in the palace, which caused fires everywhere in the palace, Your Highness the Fifth Princess?"

Lovely: “???”

What? I did it? Why? Am I possessed?
"What...are you kidding?" She said intermittently, not being able to react for a moment. "How could I possibly blow up the palace of Melendel and cause such a sensation?"

After she finished speaking, she blinked her eyes. The whole city was in uproar… the whole city was in uproar… ?
The city is full of wind...

She finally reacted, her eyes widened as she looked at Luo Wei, she was speechless for a moment and stood up from the chair, pointing at him in shock. Luo Wei stood there like a demon who had completely shed his sheepskin, exuding the aura of conspiracy behind the scenes who was manipulating everything.

Lovely: “!!!”

No wonder he has been so low-key in front of me these days.

With this fire.

It turned out that it was you who put it there!!!
