Saint Laurent Prison Warden

Chapter 2: Star-Moon Society

Treason!
These three words blew Richard's mind.

"Ah?! The Saint of Chastity? The Star-Moon Society?

You are not the police, but the secret agents of the Star-Moon Society? !
This, this, this...what is this connected to?!
I, Richard, am just an ordinary teacher at a magic university, a small character who cannot be any smaller. Why should I be judged by you?

Am I qualified for this?"

Richard suddenly woke up, his eyes became sharp, he looked at the black robed female wizard suspiciously and asked:
"Is this a new type of fraud? What... Officer, can I see your ID?"

"Humph. You won't cry until you see the coffin. Come, torture me!"

"Hmm? Sir, it's unfair!"

……

……

Click!

A black-robed wizard grabbed Richard by the collar and threw him roughly into the cage.

"Ouch!" Richard was thrown into the dark steel cage, his teeth were almost broken, and his face hit the ground in pain.

The dark voice of the black-robed wizard sounded outside the window.

"Richard, I have to admit that you are very tight-lipped. Even torture couldn't pry your mouth open.

I have bad news for you.

Three days ago, twelve of our comrades from the Xingyue Society died in the operation to capture the [Saint of Chastity].

Right now everyone in our Xingyue Society is very angry. All those who have any connection with the Saint of Chastity have been arrested and interrogated, and no one has escaped.

Your accomplices will confess everything sooner or later. If you confess after they have confessed everything they should, it will not be considered a meritorious service.

Only by doing meritorious service can you survive. The chance of survival is precious, so you should carefully consider whether you are willing to sacrifice yourself for others.

Also, I have some bad news for you.

[The Saint of Chastity] was very aloof in the Wizarding Academy, and there were very few people who were close to her, let alone had any in-depth contact with her.

Now everyone knows that you, Richard, are very likely the person who has the most in-depth contact with the Saint of Chastity in the entire Travel City.

Stop playing your lousy ladybug, we're not fools.

You probably don't know how many eyes are staring at you right now.

I'll give you a little more time to think about whether you want to confess. The next interrogation will be your last chance."

"Bang!" The door of the cage was slammed shut and the heavy magic lock was also hung on it.

With a muffled creaking sound, the entire dungeon fell into complete darkness, without a trace of light.

Damn it, how did things turn out like this.

What a sin I have committed.

In the cage, Richard raised his head, his eyes dark.

At this moment, Richard was devastated.

Oh, heaven, earth! Oh, great Lord of Heaven! I am innocent! Dou E was wronged, snow fell in June, and there is no way to redress my injustice!
Richard wanted to say that, but he couldn't.

I sponsored a female student and was arrested as a spy - that was fucked up enough.

But what’s even more fucked up is that the Xingyue Society didn’t catch the wrong person, I really am a fucking spy.

But I'm not a spy for the Holy See, I'm just a spy for the Wizarding Academy!
……

My name is Richard, formerly known as Li De. I am not from this world, but a reincarnated person from the Blue Planet—not a soul traveling across time and space, but a reincarnated baby.

Although I was born an orphan without a father or a mother, I stood out during my student days thanks to my wisdom beyond my age and the excellent orphan raising system of the Silver City.

When I was only eight years old and still studying in the elementary spell class, I was noticed by the dean of the Wizard Academy and became the direct disciple of [Dean of the Wizard Academy·Legendary Hero]——Kapa Tolbustan.

After I became an adult, I took on an important task under the order of Dean Capa, sneaked into the Mage Academy alone, and climbed up step by step, eventually taking on an important position and becoming the ace spy of the Wizard Academy hidden in the Mage Academy.

And the female student Lolo from the Wizarding Academy was the contact person that Dean Capa arranged for me three years ago.

……

Luo Luo picked up my wizard certificate and returned it to me. This is the first level.

Lolo had an indecent relationship with me under the pretext of returning the mage's certificate. This is the second level.

I passed on the latest magic research results of the Mage Academy to Luo Luo. This is the third level!
This way, even if our meeting is discovered, I can use the first and second floors as cover and disguise myself as an ordinary ladybug.

According to the laws of the Silver City, the crime of [illegal trading of reproductive rights] will only result in a fine, not criminal prosecution.

For a young, promising, and distinguished third-ring mage like me, having some romantic affairs is normal, and it is not even enough to be punished as severely as being expelled from the Mage Academy.

This exquisite joint operation has been maintained for three full years. It has been smooth sailing for three years and no accidents have ever occurred.

No one noticed at all that during the past three years, the handsome and promising young wizard Richard would from time to time tutor the beautiful female student from the [Wizard Academy] in a secret little room in the hotel, and instill in that female student hot and fresh magical knowledge.

Until today, like a bolt from the blue, I was suddenly arrested and charged with treason.

Richard never expected that he only had three simple layers, but Luo Luo, this woman, had a fourth layer.

Fuck! Luo Luo is not only the liaison between the Wizard Academy and me, but also the [Venerable Saint] of the Holy Church!
In order to save time, every time I met Lolo, I used the cramming method, not caring whether she could understand it or not, and poured the theoretical knowledge into her mind.

Every time I got Lolo drunk, his legs became weak, his buttocks became sore, and his head felt dizzy.

I have learned almost all of the research results of the Mage Academy over the past three years and taught everything that should be taught.

Isn't this equivalent to me handing over the Mage Academy's top-secret intelligence to the Holy See every year for the past three years?
Three whole years! I can’t even remember how much information I sold out in those three years.

I am not a traitor, so who else could be a traitor?

It would not be unfair to put me on the guillotine and behead me a hundred times.

Thinking of this, Richard's eyes became dull:

What a bastard!
I'm not lying, nun's uniform is really Lolo's hobby.

When we met before, Lolo would change into nun clothes whenever she met me. If the style she liked was not available, she would act like a spoiled child and ask me to help her find one in the entire city.

I always thought this was her hobby, and I thought to myself that girls nowadays really know how to have fun.

It turns out that she wasn't looking for excitement at all. She was taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else around to remove her disguise, restore her true identity, and reminisce about the past!
Hey!
Even though the White Bone Demon was in front of me, I still thought the bones were white and burnt enough, and very beautiful.

Richard felt his scalp tingling when he realized that he was really a traitor.

It's broken! What should I do now?
I am also a victim. Should I tell you the truth about my situation? No! No way!
I must not tell the truth. If I do, I will surely die!
First of all, I have no way to prove that I didn’t know about Lolo’s identity as a saint - if I can’t prove it, then I’ll be convicted of treason and I’ll be put to death.

Secondly, even if I had a way to prove that I didn't know Lolo's identity as a saint, it was a fait accompli that I stole the secrets of the Mage Academy and gave them to Lolo.

The Xingyue Society's group of executioners who are willing to give birth to sons without anus will never show mercy to me just because I have no subjective intention of treason. They will only see the fact of my treason and then ruthlessly wipe me out.

Turn my head, which deserved to be killed, into a medal of honor on their chests.

Confess and you will be given leniency, and you will be sentenced to life in prison; resist and you will be given strict punishment and you can go home for the New Year. Luo Luo and I have been in contact for three years, but the Xingyue Society only seems to know about the last time I contacted Luo Luo.

This is most likely the work of the Holy See. This means that I should still have allies and not be fighting alone.

I'm sorry, in order to survive, I have no choice but to betray this country to the end!

The truth must be hidden!
But concealing something is not that easy.

Lolo is the [Chaste Saint], and I have had in-depth contact with Lolo.

At this moment, there must be countless people who can't wait to pry open my mouth, and countless more who want to use me as a stepping stone to climb up.

Even if I have no problems and am as innocent as a blank sheet of paper, there will always be people who will try every means to frame me and discredit me.

Then they will hand me over to them as their credit in exchange for a smooth path to success.

What's more, I really have a problem.

Richard's head was about to explode.

Since reincarnation, I have suffered so much to climb to my current position. I have finally lived a luxurious life that I could never have dreamed of in my previous life. How can I fail now when I haven't enjoyed it for long?

If you think about it carefully, there must be a way!
Richard closed his eyes and thought.

Half an hour later, Richard suddenly jumped up from the ground, slammed the door of the cage, and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Someone, someone, come here! I have a clue! I got a clue!"

click!
Richard just shouted, and the dark cell suddenly lit up.

"hiss--"

Richard gasped and took a half step back in fear.

Twenty-eight magic crystal lamps were hung on the ceiling. The crystal lamps emitted bright light, illuminating the room of more than 500 square meters.

Desk, wizard chair, floating bookshelf, magic carpet djinn...

This is not a prison cell at all, it's a fully functional spy hall!

Richard found himself locked in a dark cage alone in the center of the spy hall.

Outside the cage, there were three circles inside and three circles outside, all of which were secret agents and mages from the Star-Moon Society wearing black robes.

The complicated magic circles on the floor of the secret service hall made Richard's scalp tingle.

Richard immediately realized that the surroundings were actually always brightly lit, which was why he felt it was dark.

It was his cage that blocked the entry of light, making it impossible for his eyes to receive light signals.

At this time, there was a group of special spy mages hiding outside the cage, secretly observing his reactions when he was alone.

If he had made any unusual movement in the cell just now, he would probably have been judged with thunder.

At this moment, a [Special Agent Mage] wearing [Star Moon Mage Robe] walked out from the black robe mages and asked Richard softly:
"Tell me, Master Richard, what did you think of?"

Star Moon Mage Robe! Only people with extremely high status in the Star Moon Society can wear this robe, and their strength must be at least legendary.

Richard immediately realized that this man had the power to decide his own destiny.

He opened his eyes wide and whispered:

"Report to Master Xingyue! I thought of something.

A week ago, when I was with Lolo.

She told me that she had a close friend nearby and asked me if I wanted to ask her close friend to come and see me.

I am such an honest person that I immediately rejected this ridiculous proposal!"

"Her best friend?" Star Moon Mage asked doubtfully:

"Why did the [Saint of Chastity] ask her best friend to come and find you? Did her best friend also find your magician certificate?"

Richard: ...

The scene was a little quiet, so quiet that Richard felt embarrassed.

He replied with a smirk:
"Ha, ha, ha. My Lord, you are quite humorous.

Master Xingyue. What I mean is that there is a conflict in intelligence.

The black-robed wizard who just interrogated me told me that Lolo was rather withdrawn in the wizard academy and didn’t have many friends. Then why does she have a best friend?

If Luo Luo is the [Saint of Chastity], then who is the best friend she wants to call to see me? What is the identity of that best friend?
Is there a possibility that there might be more than one [Saint] coming to our Silver City? Is there another Saint?"

One stone caused a thousand waves!

As soon as Richard finished speaking, the atmosphere in the [Spy Hall] suddenly became depressing.

Master Xingyue lowered his head and remained silent for a moment. Suddenly he turned around and shouted, "Investigate thoroughly! Re-examine all of Luo Luo's interpersonal relationships immediately!"

"Yes!"

The well-trained black-robed mages immediately took action.

In the office area, many black-robed wizards were whispering to each other, quickly organizing materials and using magic to retrieve information.

Some black-robed mages immediately took out conch-shaped communication tools and made urgent contact with their comrades in the distance.

Some black-robed mages had already packed up their things and left the hall in a hurry.

"Very good." Star-Moon Mage took a step towards Richard's cage.

The magic circles on the ground reacted automatically, lighting up one by one with his footsteps, but none of them stopped him.

He strolled to Richard's cell and slowly lifted his hood, revealing his old face and long silver hair.

The old magician's face is full of traces of time, and the wrinkles are crisscrossed like ancient tree bark, and each one carries a legendary story.

His eyes were like the surface of a lake in winter, turbid and deep, full of traces of time. His beard was as white as silver, a little messy and unruly.

How could Richard forget this face? He encountered it every day on his way to and from get off work.

In this city, there is a statue of this person at the gate of every magician's and wizard's academy.

"Hiss!! Maher, the permanent councillor!"

Mahir, the demigod hero, the nine-ring wizard, and the great traveler who has traveled throughout the world of Yasa!

He is the chief lord of [Silver City-Sky Dome City Group].

[Nine Rings Magician Senate] One of the seven permanent members.

One of the seven most powerful and strongest people in the entire Silver City-State!

Hiss—Richard’s tailbone was numb.

This time, Maher Changren is actually in charge of the incident himself?
