Chapter 434: Loving father and filial son is the traditional art of this place
Everyone unanimously put the shit basin on Griffin.
Henry Janeva's attitude was serious.
The report record he received was not just one or two people, but almost everyone in the branch reported the Crusader Legion Commander Griffin in unison.
The reasons are much the same.
"First, when the Evernight Disaster struck, Legion Commander Griffin failed to execute well and failed to lead the team to control the situation immediately, leading to chaos."
"Second, they failed to complete the action process as required, contacted senior clergy of the Seeking Church in private, and leaked important information, which ultimately caused the Crusaders to miss the best opportunity to solve the Evernight disaster."
The second sentence is the biggest killer move.
"Private contacts and leaking secrets."
This is an extremely serious accusation.
A lot of the information the Glow God Cult has is often directly related to monsters, cultists, evil gods, and voids, with the degree of danger increasing in order.
Of course, this information cannot be disclosed to unrelated people outside the church at will!
Relevant personnel should also sign corresponding confidentiality contracts when following the prescribed procedures.
Otherwise - what if the secret is leaked and a cultist or something else seizes the opportunity to cause trouble?
Henry Trump conspired with the priests below.
Not to mention, at this point, they can indeed find an opportunity to criticize Griffin.
Because it is the people of the Church of Knowledge who rush into the countess’s castle to end the eternal night and eliminate the disaster!
So where did they get the information?
How could they be sure that the key to solving this disaster lies with the Countess of Ceylon?
Theoretically speaking, this should obviously be information that only the Glow Divine Cult has.
Henry Trump could not guess the real reason, and he did not try to guess.
He just made a reasonable guess.
Someone within the Glow God Religion leaked the secret!
If you want to leak secrets, you must have experience of contacting people from the Qiuzhi Church.
Filter based on this condition.
Griffin stood out immediately!
He's the only guy who has ever had contact experience!
The shit basin hit Griffin's head with a clang.
…
The next day, afternoon.
Glow Church.
A small hall with a quite quiet environment.
The overseeing priest, Janeva, stood behind the podium where priests usually preached. There was a small platform that was slightly higher, allowing him to have a panoramic view of the situation in the hall.
The regiment commander who came to the small hall as a defendant sat on the bench in the first row.
He always lowered his head and could not clearly see the expression on his face.
Several clergymen sat a few rows back with Henry Trump.
In a sense, they are the plaintiffs.
Further back, there are some non-church people who came here as believers of the God of Radiance.
These people were randomly invited.
They are the protagonists of this investigation meeting.
Janevar will randomly ask them questions, all related to Griffin.
Analyze and evaluate situations multi-dimensionally through information from a non-church perspective.
Janeva took out a dimly glowing copper pocket watch from her arms, picked it up with her finger, opened the cover, and looked at the time.
"On the hour."
"Questions will follow."
"Please carefully consider your next words and deeds. If you cheat, conceal, slander, frame, divert attention, change concepts, etc., the Glow God Sect will hold you jointly and severally responsible."
Janeva's eyes as sharp as a knife swept around the small hall and warned coldly.
The people he glanced at lowered their heads involuntarily.
…
The first person to take the question was a man dressed as an ordinary citizen.
"Please describe what you know about Captain Griffin."
The other party stood up hurriedly, a little nervous, and stammered:
"Legion Commander... Your Excellency, I am a little afraid of him. Aren't the Crusaders fighting against the evil god? I have nothing to do with the evil god!"
Janeva's face was expressionless, making it impossible to tell what he was really thinking.
Changed to the next questioner:
"When the Ceylon area was covered by eternal night, what things did you witness or hear about Commander Griffin? Whether true or not."
The man who had been asked the question slowly stood up.
Most of his hair is white, and there are many age lines on his face. He is in his fifties or sixties.
He looked much more calm.
His face was filled with a confident look:
"I've seen it with my own eyes!"
"The Commander of the Griffin Army was dissatisfied with the instructions of Bishop Henry Trump. He had his own ideas. He led the Crusaders to leave the city of Ceylon and secretly met with the believers of the Church of Seeking Knowledge!"
Janeva still had that iceberg expression on her face: "At the specific time and place, who else saw it besides you?"
The man recalled something.
"It was probably the third day of the Eternal Night outbreak, at night, late at night."
"At that time... I was fulfilling my duty as a Viscount of the Kingdom, killing the lone monsters wandering outside the city of Ceylon. I happened to see the leader of the Griffin Army leaving the city."
"The location is not far to the east outside Ceylon City."
"At that time and place, there was basically no one else outside the city, so no one else should know about it."
The man who spoke was none other than someone else.
It was Petwain's father, one of the famous manor nobles in Ceylon, Viscount Tostin!
After hearing such accusations, Griffin still lowered his head and remained motionless without any reaction.
Jenniwa pursed his lips: "Can you take responsibility for what you said?"
Viscount Tostin nodded immediately and raised his right hand: "Of course! In the name of the God of Light, I can swear!"
Jenniwa's two gray eyeballs deep in his eye sockets stared at Viscount Tostin: "Confirm it one last time, can you take responsibility for what you said?"
Viscount Tostin secretly gritted his teeth.
"I can!"
"Okay."
Jenniwa first made a gesture to the other party to sit down.
Viscount Tostin breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been pardoned, and hurriedly sat down.
However, Jenniwa's next move made Viscount Tostin suddenly nervous!
"Relevant witnesses, please come in."
"Squeak--"
The door of the small hall of the church was slowly pushed open.
Hearing the word "relevant witnesses", Viscount Tostin, who wanted to look back and look at the person who came in, took a closer look, and the whole person was not good!
"?!"
Because the appearance of the two young men and women who came in was very familiar to Viscount Tostin!
One of them is the daughter of the Countess, Nicole Ceylan!
The 14-year-old 3rd-level mage has completely inherited her mother's beauty. Although they have not met many times, Viscount Tostin still remembers her very clearly.
The other one, who walked into the room with Nicole, is even more memorable:
Petun Tostin!
The moment Viscount Tostin saw Petun appear, his brain crashed!
"What's going on?!"
Why did his son appear with the daughter of Countess Ceylan?
