Reincarnation Paradise
Chapter 1686 Hank, release the dog
Jingle bell, jingle bell...
The chains collided, and the back door of the arbitration hall was pushed open. Su Xiao was escorted into the arbitration hall by several invisible guards wearing black armor.
The shackles were unlocked, and Su Xiao sat on the 'special seat'. With a click, the iron bars around him were locked.
Su Xiao looked around. Just a few hours ago, he had discussed with Harold how to conduct today's arbitration.
On the left is Congressman Jones. Judging from his red eyes, the situation is similar to what Harold said. The thunder is loud and the raindrops are light. He will not fight with him because of Sir Eddie's matter.
As for Representative Leopold on the right, this guy is difficult to deal with and often likes to use roundabout strategies to put his opponents to death.
Of course, Su Xiao would not completely believe the words of Lord Harold. As insurance, he asked Bubouwang to place an Apollo in the Palace of Parliament. Once the situation changed, everyone present would end badly.
When dealing with an old man like Harold, Su Xiao would certainly not trust him easily. Although he was not as good as the old man, he had physical means.
Imperial power shackles? The identity of the deputy commander? In Su Xiao's opinion, these are just means and channels to complete the promotion task. Before killing Sir Eddie, he actually thought carefully for a long time. Eden Manor must be eliminated, otherwise it may become the base camp of Ghost Ring in critical moments.
Coupled with the bribed congressmen, the situation may develop to the point where Su Xiao knows that there are ghosts in Eden Manor, but he has to go through complicated procedures to search there. Unless he is hostile to the entire imperial power system, he can only Seeing the ghost hiding in Eden Manor, he struck first.
"Cukulin White Night, do you admit to murdering Joshua Eddie with a firearm while dining at Eden Manor."
Harold put down the document in his hand, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
Su Xiao's expression remained unchanged, but he could tell from Harold's actions that things deviated from the plan.
"deny."
"absurd!"
Councilor Jones growled. Judging from his excited expression, he clearly wanted to throw the teacup off the table.
"Oh? Various evidence shows that you shot Joshua Eddie. Do you admit this?"
"admit."
Su Xiao's fingers lightly touched the wooden table, which meant that he understood what Harold meant.
"That is, you admitted to shooting Joshua Eddy, but you did not admit to murdering Joshua Eddy."
"That's right."
Su Xiao stood up while speaking, and it was time to show off her acting skills.
"Your Majesty, what I'm talking about below is related to the secrets of ghosts."
"Well, those not involved will leave."
As soon as Harold finished speaking, several escorts walked into the arbitration hall and asked most of the spectators to leave. They only needed to listen to the first half, which was related to political issues.
After the irrelevant personnel left the scene, Congressman Jones and Congressman Leopold both looked at Su Xiao, and the arbitration continued.
"First of all, I received reliable information at 9 o'clock this morning that Joshua Eddie was hiding a female ghost in his manor. This information came from the Seventh Force and it was very accurate.
At about 12 noon, my men and I arrived at Eden Manor. At 12:15, I had dinner with Joshua Eddie. After asking questions about the ghost, Joshua Eddie suddenly threw his knife and said Stand up and intend to attack me. According to the Imperial Law, Chapter 5, Article 356, if the special armed unit is attacked and the situation is urgent, the attacker can be killed on the spot. "
Su Xiao said that after a pause, Old Hank immediately stood up and handed a sealed table knife to the guard. In fact, Sir Eddie did throw the table knife at that time, but he just threw it on the dining table. This was a sign of irritation. , if this were not the case, Su Xiao's two shots would not have been fired so cleanly.
"I was in Eden Manor at the time. There were at least 20 gunmen outside the room, and ghosts might appear at any time. After I killed Joshua Eddie, I was attacked by the gunmen."
As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, Gus in the auditorium tore off his clothes and tore off the bandage on his chest. A clear gunshot wound could be seen on his chest. Of course, this was not enough to serve as evidence.
"Based on the situation at the time, I thought I made the right decision at the time. Of course, after killing Joshua Eddie, I tried my best to reduce the casualties among the servants and Joshua's family members in Eden Manor. As for the ongoing attack, Our gunmen can only kill them on the spot."
Su Xiao did not continue because Harold's session came next.
"So, you are performing your official duties normally? But...how can you concretely prove that Joshua Eddie is attacking you."
"I can't prove it, that's my personal judgment."
"Personal judgment."
Harold frowned, and the two congressmen remained silent, waiting for Harold's final verdict.
"Although you cannot be found to have murdered Joshua Eddy, his death is a fact, and he died because of your personal judgment..."
After a moment of silence, Harold picked up the seal on the table and stamped it on a document with a bang.
"Judgment, Cuculin White Night's execution was dismissed from the position of deputy commander of the execution agency, and he was ordered to work in the Bora Mine for two years."
After that, Harold stood up and walked out of the arbitration hall. Su Xiao was also escorted out of the arbitration hall. As soon as he went out, his shackles were opened because the judgment document clearly stated that the judgment would take effect in five days.
Gus and the other three walked out of the arbitration hall and quickly ran behind Su Xiao.
"Sir, we..."
Gus looked anxious, and he was clearly dissatisfied with the verdict.
Su Xiao, who was walking slowly, whispered at this moment: "Hank, there are still a few ghosts in the backyard of the headquarters."
"Six."
"Release it."
"ah?"
Hank was a little confused and a little excited.
"Place it near the residences of Representatives Leopold and Jones."
"Understood, sir."
Hank left quickly. He was very measured and knew Su Xiao's intention. It was enough to release those ghosts to scare people, and they had to be clean and leave no traces.
"Reinhardt, continue to go to Eden Manor and stare. I always have a feeling that there is something else there. The smell is too strange."
"Yes, sir."
"Gus, you go visit Mrs. Nancy and tell her it's going to be a lively night and don't say anything else."
"Clear, my lord."
The three people quickly left the Parliament Palace, and Su Xiao glanced at Bonnie.
"If you dare to take the money and run away, I'll hang you on a tree and whip you."
"The most basic trust between people."
Bonnie stamped her foot angrily and walked away quickly. She also had a secret mission.
"Mr. Cuculin, you are not yet free to move."
A guard who was always following at a close distance came forward.
"Am I going to spend tonight in jail?"
Su Xiao lit a cigarette. Things were not going smoothly, but they were within control. Obviously, before he entered the arbitration hall, the two congressmen had already benefited. It didn't take much to think about it, but they knew that they had the right to operate the red mine, so they were in Su Xiao didn't speak much after arriving at the scene. As for seeking justice for Sir Eddie? Don't be kidding, congressmen are politicians. We expect them to be affectionate and righteous. Su Xiao prefers to believe that female ghosts are as beautiful as flowers.
"You were joking, I have already prepared the rest room for you."
Half an hour later, in the small building behind the Parliament Palace, Su Xiao was sitting cross-legged on a single bed, indulging in games.
…
At ten o'clock that night, in the room on the fifth floor of the Palace of Parliament, Harold was wearing a coat and looking tired, as if he had just been woken up.
"Your Majesty, I, I..."
Congressman Jones was sitting on the semi-circular sofa, with runny nose and tears. His hair was a little messy, and his cane was thrown away.
"I thought I would never see you again, Your Majesty. I was almost eaten by a ghost. Well, the monster's mouth was so big, and it suddenly ran towards my bedroom."
Congressman Jones cried even more sadly. Harold, who was just about to take a breath, coughed lightly. He really didn't expect that Su Xiao would release the ghost.
"Jones, you have suffered. I will deal with this matter tomorrow morning. The execution mechanism is getting more and more outrageous, Cuculin..."
At this point, Harold sighed.
"Kukulin has already moved the rocks. The new deputy commander will be selected soon. Today is just an accident. Since Jones you are not injured, you are lucky. I will send the Awakener to your manor."
"No, Your Majesty."
How could Congressman Jones allow the Awakened to enter his manor? They are all Su Xiao's people.
Boom, boom, boom.
There was a knock on the door, and Leopold entered the room. He was trembling with anger. At nine o'clock tonight, he was getting ready to pamper the new maid. Who knew that he had even taken off his pants, and the thing suddenly changed? He became a ghost, but fortunately he only roared.
It was a female ghost that only had the ability to transform. Because of her special ability, Old Hank was reluctant to eat it.
"This is ridiculous, Your Majesty, I want to..."
Just as Leopold was about to denounce the ghost's bad behavior, he suddenly realized that Jones was there, and he was just holding Harold's leg and crying.
The three people in the room fell into silence.
"Your Majesty, how about...let Cuculin serve as deputy commander for a while? After all, he has served the empire for so many years. No one is immune to mistakes, so I beg your Majesty."
Congressman Jones proposed. In fact, he wanted to send Su Xiao to the gallows. However, he did not want to fight to the death with a lunatic who dared to release ghosts. The older he got, the more he feared death.
"This..." Harold was a little embarrassed. After thinking about it for a moment, he said, "Otherwise, let's observe it for a while."
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to vouch for Deputy Commander Cuculin. Moreover, based on his past contributions to the empire, he deserves to be the commander of the Legion."
Councilor Leopold also spoke.
"You guys go out first."
Harold waved his hand. As soon as Jones and Leopold walked out of the room, they looked at each other and tacitly understood that from the red mine business, Leopold would get 60%, Jones would get 40%, and 70% of the total proceeds would go to the empire. All, 10% of which are allocated to the execution agencies, are not allowed to sell red ore to officials, and are not allowed to significantly reduce prices and increase sales. Red ore has become a pastime for those descendants of the royal family and nobles.
Su Xiao, who was promoted from deputy army commander to army commander, has the right to search more than 95% of the areas in Zul City.
The Joshua family has hugged that piece of cake for so many years that the mixed blood has come out.
And from the beginning to the end, Leopold and Jones never thought about confronting Su Xiao. A dead person was not worthy of their quarrel with Su Xiao. It was enough to be passable on the surface. They had to leave some room for both sides to Knowing this, for example, Old Hank had all the ghosts that were released, had their teeth pulled out, claws pinched, and injected with large doses of sedatives. Senator Leopold was so weak that he could kick the ghosts when he was just an old man. Go out two meters away.
It’s not a two-person show, it’s a four-person show.
