Chapter 56

In the Japanese-style hall, the old grandfather in a black samurai uniform had a gloomy expression, and his words seemed extremely desperate.

The ugly man, as well as Lily's mother, all became sad after hearing this, and they all looked very remorseful.

However, the girl could not empathize with this.

In the smoky hall, seeing the ugly appearance of these elders, she even wanted to laugh a little.

When did you start to lose respect for them in your heart?

In her eyes, grandfather was synonymous with wisdom and prudence...

He can teach himself a lot of great truths, and that often means being right, which means life should be like this.

Where is the father?
In her opinion, her father is more like a friend who accompanied her growing up.

The father and daughter share the same hobbies and similar worldviews, and when encountering any messy and disgusting things, he will point and curse at him together.

My mother is not so kind anymore, and often has a cold face, as if she is fine and doesn't bother me.

But my mother is very powerful. When Lily makes a mistake accidentally, she will severely criticize her, let her deeply understand the lesson, and strive not to do it again next time.

The mother is also the person Lily fears the most.

But now, looking at these close relatives in front of the situation, showing such powerless and decadent expressions, seeing them all seem to regret it...

Lily only felt that life was illusory.

They have taught themselves a correct outlook on life and the world since they were young, telling themselves to be kind and to pursue the truth of justice.

But in the end, these people who taught her didn't take these words seriously at all!
In the face of interests, he put all those reasons behind him without even thinking about it.

That's how it was when I heard about Andy the other day.

Right now, it's still like this!
They seem to be remorseful, and are very angry at the abandonment of the organization, but is this really regretting their previous choices?
What is the reason for their anger?
It's just that the self-interest is damaged, and it hurts.

If it didn't involve the safety of his own family, if he saw other people in the organization being arrested and interrogated by the royal family, and even lost their lives, my grandfather would probably only say that this is a necessary sacrifice, right?

It was as if he had made the decision to betray Andy without any hesitation!
Could it be that he didn't know that Andy would definitely lose his life because of this?

Thinking of this, the girl couldn't help feeling sad.

Since telling about Andy a few days ago, she has been grounded, which also made her see the essence of more elders.

The father who is like a friend is actually a coward. He obeys everything, listens to his mother, listens to his grandfather, and has no own opinions.

The stern and powerful mother is nothing but an empty air of authority who can only hold up the posture of an elder without reason.

And the wise and far-sighted grandfather is more like an old fool.

The indifference and calmness on the surface are nothing but self-righteousness!
They live in their own world, follow the character habits they have developed over the years, and think that they are all strong in their peaceful daily life.

But actually?
They neither have the heart of a strong man nor the ability of a strong man.

Maybe this can't be called weak, but it's nothing more than a group of people who follow the crowd similar to my own junior.

He thinks he is in control of everything, but in fact he is always guided and manipulated by the situation.

All the choices seem to come from the heart, but the essence is that you can't do it yourself!
They were, and that Weaver butler was.

The so-called organization against the royal family is still like this...

Who is really in control of everything?
Lily thought of the skinny boy who lived in the wooden house by the sea.

Seemingly weak, is he really weak when he is imprisoned and manipulated by the organization?

The housekeeper, who seemed extremely powerful to people, was defeated by this weak man.

Moreover, it is very easy.

From the very beginning, only a few days have passed since I ran to see him...

Before, I was panicked because the elders were taken away, so I didn't think about it.

Now think about it, what a terrible method this is?

More importantly, the letter.

Was that letter really only addressed to the Norman bishop?

She had thought it was.

But now...

Sitting kneeling in the hall, the girl in a trance couldn't help but think of the complicated eyes that Andy had looked at her when she wrote the letter.

What does that look mean?
At that time, she didn't care about it, and all her thoughts were on how to defeat the housekeeper.

Later, when he met Bishop Norman and understood the real plan of the organization, he thought Andy had foreseen the conspiracy.

So I was surprised to see that my little traitor was different from other members of the organization.

Later, after confronting her grandfather and being grounded by her family, she thought it was Andy who had guessed the choice of his grandfather and others, so she glanced at herself with complicated emotions.

Is he not sure whether he will go with his family or run against them?
She has been thinking this for the past two days.

Until today, until the butler stepped down, the royal family launched a large-scale manhunt, and the situation became violently turbulent today.

Only then did she truly understand what that look meant!
"Knowing that a group of villains in our Kozia family would choose to make the decision to betray him, we had to take action to save the lives of these villains."

"This kind of feeling must be very helpless..."

Thinking to herself inwardly, looking at the desperate, sad, or crazy faces around her, the girl didn't intend to really stand on the sidelines.

No matter what, the group of people around her is her family.

Her grandfather and parents are her dearest relatives whom she cannot part with. She no longer repays her confidence, but still loves her dearest relatives.

They may be stupid and self righteous.

But at least they didn't really do anything evil.

Regardless of deeds and minds, everything can be reversed.

Since Andy left himself this way of retreat, he should be able to guess that it is impossible for him to abandon his family in front of him.

As long as you take your family members to apologize to him afterwards...

Thinking of this, Lily finally spoke.

"We still have a chance."

"A chance to survive."

……

At this time, the Japanese-style hall seemed to be noisy and messy, but in fact everyone was very sensitive.

Even Lily's words were obviously not loud, but they still stunned everyone for an instant, and then Qi Qi looked over.

"Good niece, what can I do? Tell me quickly!"

A member of the uncle's family hurriedly asked, not caring whether she was a niece who was young and reliable.

But it's not just him, the other people around, as if grasping at the last straw, stared at the girl closely, not letting go of the slightest possibility of surviving!

"We can apply for political asylum."

Lily said calmly: "In this way, I can escape the subsequent capture of the York royal family."

"Political asylum?"

This word is common in the secular world, but it is not very unfamiliar to extraordinary people.

To put it simply, it is to seek the asylum of external forces, or foreign officials.

If there were forces capable of opposing the York royal family to choose to protect the Kozia family, then the Kozia family would naturally be able to survive this catastrophe.

only……

After looking at each other for a while, everyone was disappointed.

Seeking shelter from others, of course, has the value of being sheltered.

Herein lies the reason for their disappointment.

The Kozia family is very rich, but what is this wealth worth under the large-scale crackdown by the York royal family?
Even if they disperse their wealth, no one will choose to protect them.

Because this will anger the York royal family, the rewards are not proportional to the sacrifices.

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, not expecting this.

Only the three old warriors, who knew more about the inside story, were moved after hearing the words.

"You mean, use Andy's affairs in exchange for some people's asylum?"

the old grandfather asked in a low voice.

What happened to Andy was both embarrassing and fatal to the York royal family, so it was naturally impossible for the news to leak out.

However, it is impossible for external forces not to pay attention to such a grandiose move by the royal family, and they must be exhausting all means to investigate the inside story.

In this case, if the Kozia family can provide clues and provide the truth of the matter, then it is not a luxury to want to save the lives of everyone in the family.

only……

Before Lily could respond, the old warrior's face darkened again when he asked.

"It's useless. Even if we have extremely valuable information, we won't be able to leave the country if we are being stared at now."

"There should be some spies from other countries in the country."

Lily's mother on the side said unwillingly: "They will definitely have some secret passages to leave."

"But how do we know where they are?"

The ugly man felt helpless about what his wife said, "There is no embassy. Even the royal family may not know who these people are. Where can we find them?"

"And don't forget, time is running out now. Father said that if he can't make it tonight, the royal family will come to investigate."

Can't make it through tonight...

The middle-aged woman didn't speak any more.

In silence, her face gradually paled, her eyes were bewildered, and her previous strong demeanor was gone at this moment.

Seeing this, Lily, who was watching silently, couldn't help pursing her lips.

Where can I find it?
Wasn't there a lot written on that letter?
