Chapter 141
Like all capital cities in the world, Londoners also have an almost instinctive arrogance, especially when a big person is scandalized or ridiculed by everyone because of a certain event, this pride will reach its peak .

In the streets, cafes, clubs, and even private salons, people scrambled to laugh at those big figures who were once above them.

Laughing is a kind of psychological overlooking, which will make people unconsciously produce an illusion, as if those bureaucrats and parliamentarians who can affect their lives by stomping their feet are just their judgments , Laugh at the object of teasing.But illusions are illusions after all. No matter how lively the discussions in the streets and lanes are, no matter how sharp the words in the newspapers are, the real power is still far away from ordinary people.

Granville realized this early on, so although he also knew that he had some bad little habits, after he became foreign secretary, he didn't restrain himself much.

Because he is not afraid.

Gladstone was not good at diplomacy, he always harbored an unwarranted naivety about international politics; Granville was a good diplomat, and no one in the Liberal Party team was better at foreign affairs.

After confirming this, Granville firmly believes that as long as he maintains his professionalism and ability, his position in the Liberal Party cabinet is indispensable.

But what happened in the past few days shattered his original self-confidence.He is very clear about the current situation, Gladstone is going to give up on him completely.

They will abandon him, a professional, shrewd and capable diplomat, because of one or two insignificant sex scandals.

He was a little apprehensive, but even more unwilling.

He believes that although he has unreasonable thoughts about some women, he actually pays great attention to means and appearance when acting.On the night of Queenie's accident, he admitted that he was indeed impulsive once, but now that he thought about it carefully, he felt that the whole process of the incident was a bit too strange, and it was very likely that he was deliberately framed by someone. This shows that As for Aliena, he just had a big fight with her that day, Granville said that he couldn't understand that someone would put the hat of death on his own head because of such a thing superior.

Even more incredible is the fact that the masses and public opinion overwhelmingly supported this statement; even Gladstone succumbed shamefully, shamelessly betraying his colleagues in order to protect his approval ratings.

Thinking of this, Granville threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground fiercely, and then stomped a few times with his leather shoes.

[No one can believe it anymore. 】He rubbed his face with his hands, thinking a little bit resentfully, but also a little bit depressed: 【I must find a way out for myself, otherwise all that is waiting for me in front of me will be the catastrophe of prison. 】

"Have you gotten used to your new state? How do you feel?" In a luxurious villa, Ms. Adler was wearing a pair of elegant and delicate buckskin boots, step by step towards Alena floating in front of the full-length mirror come.

Aliena was fiddling with her figure and clothes in front of the mirror right now.Since her death, since she no longer has a physical body in the soul state, there is no way to change clothes, so the red and white dress she had been wearing before she was alive has been worn on her body.

But at this time, she could no longer see the original dress, but changed into a brand new long skirt, with a silver-white shawl around her upper body.

"You're here, I feel good, very good." Alena, who was intoxicated with self-appreciation, didn't notice the arrival of the other party until Ms. Adler approached, which made her a little flustered.

"Don't be nervous." Adler walked to Aliena's side, put his hands on Aliena's shoulders, stood behind her, smiled and admired the brand new figure in the mirror with her: "You have regained Reborn, Aliena."

A grateful and excited smile appeared on Aliena's face: "Thanks to your help."

"However," Ms. Adler interrupted Aliena's thanks, she turned Aliena around, and the two looked at each other: "You still lack the last step."

"what?"

Adler showed an encouraging smile: "Director Vandray of the Windmill Theater was arrested by the people of Scotland Yard. The crimes he committed were published in the newspapers, and he himself confessed very simply."

"What!!?" Aliena's eyes were full of disbelief, she never expected the truth to be presented to her in such a way.She felt a sense of relief, but at the same time, she felt that the answer came too casually and lightly, which made her feel a little absurd.

"Although he has already been punished by the authorities, as a victim of the case, I believe you must really want to avenge yourself." Ms. Adler looked at Alena with piercing eyes, and at the same time flicked her hands out of her pockets. Out a note:
"He is currently being held in Scotland Yard temporarily. This is the location of the detention room. If you want to do something, you can go to this place."

After finishing speaking, Ms. Adler stuffed the note into Aliena's hand, then turned around and left gracefully, leaving only Aliena staring at the note in her hand in a daze.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you, because the case does not involve extraordinary power, or at least the people of Scotland Yard think that it does not involve extraordinary power, so Mr. Wang Delei was taken into custody according to the standard of ordinary cases, and the official who guarded him There are no superhumans among the staff." Ms. Adler turned and winked at Alena, and said meaningfully.

Aliena's hand gripped the note tighter.

"When did the news come?" Di Renjie, Sherlock, and Kelly got into a carriage that had been prepared earlier, and hurriedly drove towards the Emerald Hotel.

Fortunately, the Emerald Hotel is located in Westminster, very close to Scotland Yard, so everyone will not spend too much time on the road.

"Just 30 minutes ago, we received an anonymous report letter. All the content in the letter was cut and collaged from newspapers. There was no way to trace the identity of the reporter. The other party claimed in the anonymous letter that Hailuo Several fugitives from the special cemetery case are working in the Emerald Hotel." Kelly expected that Di Renjie and the two would ask such a question, so she prepared early and answered very smoothly:
"In addition to the report letter, a handkerchief was also sent in the envelope. We specially asked several members of the Tactical Mobile Squad to identify it. The remaining strength on the handkerchief was the same as when they fought in the Hailot Cemetery that night. The powers felt are indeed very similar. For this reason, we believe that regardless of the opponent's intentions, there is a very high possibility that there is a problem with the Emerald Hotel."

"Did you bring the handkerchief? Show me." Di Renjie didn't comment directly, but Sherlock reached out to ask Kelly for the handkerchief. He believed that the other party must have brought it.

As expected by Sherlock, Kelly, who has always been thoughtful, found an envelope from the file bag, which was undoubtedly the anonymous report letter, and the handkerchief and letter were inside.

"Their judgment is not wrong, I remember it clearly, it is this power, it is this smell." Sherlock observed the handkerchief carefully, and then quickly judged.

"So there should really be a problem with the Emerald Hotel?" Kaili looked at Di Renjie and Sherlock, and said in a slightly excited tone.

"It doesn't necessarily mean that there is something wrong with the Emerald Hotel. After all, the other party's evidence can only prove that he has indeed contacted that group of people, but it does not prove that that group of people is really in the place he mentioned." Di Renjie smiled. said:

"We can't take it lightly. They may have lured us there on purpose. Maybe they have already set up a trap for the other party in the Emerald Hotel; of course, we can't escape. No matter whether it is an opportunity or a trap, we need to go there." Take a good look at it.”

Speaking of this, Di Renjie opened the car window, stretched out his hand and waved at the sky twice. Not long after, a crow descended from the sky, flew into the carriage, and landed on his shoulder.

"Ms. Thursday, can you inform Her Excellency Catherine for me? We have an operation in the Emerald Hotel and we need her help." Ms. Crow nodded upon hearing Di Renjie's words, and flew straight away without any intention of stopping Go out the window and head towards the White Tower.

The reason why Catherine was asked to come to help was because Francis specifically mentioned to him after the last battle that although he could not display the strength of the fourth level in his current state, if there was a third-level pure white eye pathway If the extraordinary person from the bottomless abyss path of the fourth level is used as an assistant, then he will be sure to entangle the other person when he meets the extraordinary person of the fourth-level bottomless abyss path again.

"That's safe." Di Renjie said with a smile.
