Bab 226: You can try to guess

Lathel: "…"

"Captain Laura, you don't have to tease me like that. What does becoming your boyfriend have to do with proving that Lafien is innocent?"

"Of course it's related…" Laura shrugged and said: "As long as I use my honour to bail her out, she will definitely be innocent."

"We don't have evidence to prove she's innocent, but we also don't have evidence to prove she's guilty."

"That's why what she lacks is a person with full trust in the law to vouch for her."

"If I, the captain of the security team, vouch for her, she will definitely be innocent. However, she needs to be placed under house arrest for a short time."

"But compared to being tortured in this cramped room, being confined in a castle is better, right?"

Hearing that, Lathel felt it was extremely reasonable, but... he sighed and said: "Is it possible to change the request? I'm afraid I cannot fulfil this request of yours."
