"The Queen's Inspector has taken this hot potato." The Sun Priest noticed Alex's thoughtful expression, interrupting Alex's thoughts at the right moment: "This is not a matter we should interfere with; it involves royal politics." The servant of the sun god reminded Alex with good intentions.
This matter was the rotten internal affair of the Police Department; it did not belong to the Church's jurisdiction, but was an internal conflict within the kingdom's political system. Handing it over to the Queen's Inspectors - those cold and ruthless people - was clearly the most appropriate outcome to clean up this pile of garbage.
Alex knew he had overstepped the boundaries of an outsider. He did not continue to ask about other things, nodded in understanding, and bid farewell to the Sun Priest.
