I am the heroine's godfather!

Elena was somewhat dejected for a moment: "Perhaps being able to rescue them and let more people see the true face of that fourth prince would be the best ending... My stinky old man in heaven would be very happy to know this."

"Your father?"

"You before"

You asked me why you reacted so strongly upon hearing the fourth prince's voice, right?

Elena bit her lip and said, "Because my father was killed by him."

"...That's it."

“A few years ago, my father was busy with a case, which was said to be a big case. He seemed to have found something, and he was very worried during that time.”

"Until one night, I woke up in a daze and heard a commotion downstairs. When I went to see what was going on, I found that several men in black had killed my father."

“One of them has the exact same voice as the Fourth Prince.”

"I will never forget his voice. I have thought countless times about what I should do if I really meet the murderer... But now that I have really met him, I may be powerless to do anything."

Elena lowered her eyes: "After all, for a child from the slums like me, even if I risked my life to avenge them, it would be nothing more than a mosquito bite to them..."

"That's it."

Loran remained silent for a while: "Perhaps a miracle will happen? After all, Miss Elena, you are very lucky."

"Seriously, uncle, how old are you? Why do you still believe in miracles?"

Elena rolled her eyes: "If a miracle happens, just strike that bastard dead with lightning... Hey, hey, hey, why are you still standing there? I was just joking. Let's go find that police officer."

"Ah."

On the way, Estia was a little puzzled and transmitted her voice, "Are we still going to keep it a secret? Isn't it already confirmed that the fourth prince is guilty?"

"not enough."

Loran squinted: "According to the agreement, this is Avia's internal affair. Even if I am Messiah's agent, direct intervention would probably cause some dissatisfaction. Although it's not a big deal, taking direct action is the last resort."

“你的意思每^日.发！书，群【6`5,0/5^0”2*3>3.8】是？”

Estia remembered something: "In cases involving evil gods, the Holy See has the highest authority to make judgments and can intervene in any matter."

"So, you think this was orchestrated by an evil god?"

"Ah."

Loran squinted: "That guy has the aura of an evil god on him, but not in the cellar."

"You mean?"

"There are others."

Loran looked toward the church in the distance.

Chapter 164 If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected is going to happen—no matter who it is.

Elena is right. That officer named Sander is indeed quite upright. In fact, to prevent the presence of a mole within the police department, he didn't report it and directly led his men to surround the White Jasmine Chamber of Commerce.

"I'm afraid my job will be in jeopardy after this."

Officer Sander scratched his already receding hairline and gave a wry smile: "Well, I don't have a family anyway, so I'm best suited for this kind of thing."

His gaze hardened: "Arresting that guy will fulfill your father's last wish."

"Ah."

Elena nodded vigorously.

The doors of the White Jasmine Chamber of Commerce opened, and the branch president walked out with a smile: "Officer Sander? What brings you here? What are you up to?"

"Pete, stop struggling."

Sander's eyes were cold: "We already know what you've done!"

"You're joking..."

"Step aside!"

Sander had no intention of listening to him at all. He shouted angrily and prepared to walk inside.

"Let's see who dares!"

A furious shout rang out, and the Fourth Prince stepped out, surrounded by a crowd: "A mere policeman dares to investigate my Chamber of Commerce? Who gave you the guts!"

"Your Highness."

Sander bowed and said, “The charter stipulates that even the King is subject to the law. Please step aside.”

"What a joke! I just won't allow it, so what can you do about it!"

A crowd of onlookers had already gathered around.

"What's going on with the White Jasmine Chamber of Commerce? Why is it surrounded?"

"Could they have committed a crime? That can't be, the White Jasmine Chamber of Commerce is a great people."

"Exactly! If you ask me, it's because the White Jasmine Chamber of Commerce's good deeds touched upon the interests of certain groups that someone resorted to such underhanded tactics!"

"My God, this is just inhuman!"

"Keep your voice down, or you'll be in big trouble if someone hears you."

"So what if they heard us? I refuse to believe that anyone would dare to kill someone in broad daylight!"

Public opinion is easily manipulated; with just a few inflammatory words, the surrounding crowd can instantly become agitated.

Sander's heart sank. He knew he had to act quickly. If he dragged it out any longer, the matter would likely be dropped by the time the Commissioner of Police received the news.

He immediately waved his hand, saying, "Your Highness, please forgive me!"

"You! What you're doing is an insult to the royal family of Avia!"

"You are the one obstructing the Charter and the law!"

Sander roared, drew his sword, and strode forward. Several guards had already gathered magic power, preparing for a desperate fight.

Although the patrol team had a large number of people, they were all ordinary people without magic power, while the guards included first-level beings. Once a fight broke out, it would be difficult to determine a winner in a short time.

If things drag on until the Director of the Inspection Bureau arrives, the truth may really be buried.

Elena gritted her teeth, and her emerald-green cat eyes reappeared in her eyes.

In an instant, a surge of mental energy swept outwards, pressing down on Bai Moli's group. This was the first time Elena had controlled so many people simultaneously; blood seeped from her eyes, her magic power was already operating beyond its limit.

Loran squinted and tapped his cane, giving her some assistance.

The guards of the White Jasmine Merchant Guild were stunned at the same time. Although it was only half a minute, it was enough for the battle situation to change.

"How dare you treat me like this! I am a prince!"

The fourth prince of Avia was subdued by several policemen. Sander snorted and led his men into the cellar.

As expected, Elena was very fast, and they didn't have time to move.

The truth is revealed to the world.

The onlookers, who had just been unanimously saying "the White Jasmine Chamber of Commerce are good people," immediately changed their tune.

"I knew it! The White Jasmine Merchant Guild was no good!"

"Exactly! And that fourth prince, he doesn't look like a good person at all!"

"Damn it! Ugh! Disgusting!"

Public opinion can shift in an instant. Therefore, in many cases, the usefulness of public opinion is far less than imagined.

Elena's expression remained unchanged. She knew that even if she captured the Fourth Prince, it would be impossible to sentence him to death.

However... although I know that the fourth prince cannot be sentenced to death, I suppose he can still be imprisoned for a few years, right?

In this way, the case that my father had been so concerned about all those years ago finally came to a conclusion...

But why do I still feel somewhat unwilling to accept it...?

Only a few years in prison? That's really... He killed so many people, including children under ten years old.

Elena gritted her teeth, her nails digging into her palms.

But what can she do? She's just an ordinary person with some special abilities; how can she possibly fight against the royal family?

Perhaps, this is the best outcome.

"That's it!"

A shout rang out, and a squad of soldiers in silver armor rushed over, surrounding the crowd and driving the onlookers aside.

The soldiers parted to the sides, and a blue-haired woman in magnificent armor rode over on a white horse.

"Sister! Save me! These wicked people are trying to harm me!"

The fourth prince let out a shrill scream, and the blue-haired woman snorted coldly, seemingly very dissatisfied with him, but still sent out two soldiers.

"What are you going to do!"

Sander's face was extremely grim: "He is a sinner who has committed a heinous crime! He should be handed over to the court for trial!"

"Officer Sander."

The blue-haired woman said, "Hand him over to me, and I will personally punish him according to the royal family rules."

"Your Highness, is it true?"

"No buts."

The blue-haired woman, who was also the eldest princess of the Kingdom of Avia, said with a serious expression: "He is, after all, a member of the royal family. You must consider the dignity of the royal family."

Sand gritted his teeth, wanting to say something, even wanting to draw his sword and fight back, but Elena tugged at his sleeve.

"Little Elena..."

“That’s enough, Uncle Sander.”

Elena gave a wry smile: "It's already good enough... Yes, he is royalty after all."

"...Release them."

"Sir!"

The police were also extremely unwilling. They had seen the scene in the cellar, and the children's miserable condition made them want to tear the Fourth Prince to pieces. Now they were going to let him go? What a joke!

"I said, let him go!"

"......yes!"

Although extremely reluctant, they eventually released him. Seeing the smug look on the Fourth Prince's face, the inspectors' expressions were very unpleasant.

But just when everyone thought the incident was about to end, another disturbance broke out.

"I never expected to see such a good show."

Knights clad in papal armor walked slowly towards them, while the woman at the head, dressed in bishop's robes, smiled.

Cardinal Tikhmia of the Church of the Kingdom of Avia!

Chapter 165 Traveling incognito is bad for the villain's heart.

“...Bishop Tikmia”.

The princess's expression turned somewhat unpleasant: "Why are you here?"

"Just here to arrest a follower who has turned his back on the Seven Gods."

Tikmia waved her hand, and several knights brought the prisoner forward.

It was the priest that Loran and Estia had encountered earlier!

"This person betrayed the faith of the Seven Gods, lined his own pockets, and secretly colluded with the evil god. Now the evidence is conclusive, and he has been apprehended."

"is it?"

The princess narrowed her eyes and said calmly, "Then congratulations to Bishop Tikhmia for successfully removing the parasites within the Holy See."

"What's going on, Princess?"

"...My younger brother is unruly and I'm about to take him back to discipline him."

Elena's face suddenly turned ugly. In a moment of impulsiveness, she shouted, "You've harmed so many children, and in your mouth you're just calling them naughty?"

"Oh?"
