The Death Knell

"Greed will overwhelm fear, no matter what, I have a question, Dan, what do you think of Maia?"

Su Ming asked Blue Devil. He had to know Dan's thoughts. If the other party was really into the drama too deeply, or couldn't extricate himself after singing about false rights, then he would have to use a backup plan.

The Blue Devil couldn't help but relax a little when he saw Deathstroke being so calm. He asked the two of them to follow him up the royal steps and placed his trident on the throne.

"How else can I watch? I'm just an actor." He lowered his voice and secretly said to the two of them, still looking in the direction of the door as if he was afraid that people would come in and hear: "Bobo said it well first, let I came to Maia to play the king for one hundred dollars a day. I thought I could help my friends and make enough money to live on, so I agreed."

"As a result, he hasn't given you a penny now, right?" Diana's eyes became sharp, and her sixth sense gave her the truth: "I knew that Bobo and Constantine should not be let go He has been taught bad things by being exposed to too much.”

Su Ming patted her arm to tell her to calm down: "It's not enough just because you don't let him. Constantine can get involved with anyone he wants to play with. The level of protection in the Forgotten Bar can't stop him at all. Besides, , that’s a bar, Zha Kang’s favorite thing is to drink for free.”

"Hmph, I thought his favorite thing was to lie to Zatanna." Diana still complained on behalf of her sisters.

"By the way, I haven't seen Zatanna just now. Where did she go?" Su Ming remembered that there was no lady in the crowd just now. She seemed to have left after withdrawing from the battle.

Blue Devil pointed to a spiral staircase on the side wall of the throne room. The stone steps lead to the underground: "She is here, accompanying Bobo in the dungeon. She is worried that someone will assassinate him."

"Hmm, it's strange. When did Zatanna have such a brain?" Su Ming touched his chin, feeling very strange: "It's okay, just know that you don't want Maia. I'll go down with Diana, and you hold the door." Get people down."

"I understand." Blue Devil was used to accepting arrangements after the last operation with Deathstroke, and he had no objection at this time: "What should we do about Bobo?"

"Some people are making trouble secretly and want to put Bobo on trial, but I am not what they want." Su Ming walked towards the stairs. There was only a faint light from the torch at the dark entrance.

"It's not a good idea to rob the prison, right?" Blue Devil hesitated. After all, in his mind, the opinions of the people were very important.

Su Ming turned to look at him: "Who said I was going to rob the prison? If I really rescue Bobo, wouldn't it be true? You will be implicated by then, and I also want to wipe out all the reactionaries in one fell swoop. I can't let that happen. They continue to hide in the mouse hole."

Diana followed him and asked curiously: "What should we do?"

"Skip the public trial and sentence Bobo to death by hanging directly in the name of the king. The death penalty here is not beheading or cutting in half, right?" Su Ming revealed his plan and asked the Blue Devil.

The Blue Devil was a little confused about the meaning of the death knell. The light of the torches in the throne room made his skin look a little dark, and the curved horns on his head made him look listless.

"Yes, this place is similar to the Middle Ages. The gallows is the most common method. In fact, I wanted to implement a more humane punishment such as life imprisonment earlier, but Maia has its own national conditions here."

Yes, for humans in the main dimension, life imprisonment is indeed an option, but for mages here, it is not necessarily the case.

How can such a person be imprisoned if his lifespan can easily be hundreds of years? Maybe the Blue Devil has died of old age, while the prisoners are still living happily, and it has no punishment effect at all.

That was also the first time that the Blue Devil realized that democracy and humanitarianism did not work everywhere.

"Okay, I heard before that someone asked for Bobo to be hanged, so I just want to confirm it." Su Ming nodded and turned to leave: "Send people to spread the word throughout the city. In an hour, we will be at Maia Central Square , a 'Monkey Killing Convention' is held in front of Jim's statue, and anyone who wants to see Bobo die can come and witness it with his own eyes."

"You don't really want to kill Bobo, do you?" Diana also didn't understand Su Ming's plan, but she knew that Deathstroke should have had an idea when he heard about the hanging.

Su Ming led her into the stairwell. This kind of spiraling downward stone steps may only be seen in cemeteries except here. The moist moisture made the ground a little slippery, and there were faint black moss and mushrooms on the walls.

"They want Bobo to die, and they are worried until they see it with their own eyes. This is our chance to kill all the enemies within." Su Ming just said this, and then stopped talking.

The light in front of me was getting darker and darker, and the narrow stairs seemed to have no end, with only the sound of footsteps echoing in it.

Diana didn't say anything, just thinking, until the light in front of her eyes turned on again, and a fairly good cell area appeared in front of the two of them.

Zatanna was squatting outside a cage, talking to Bobo on the straw inside. The scene was like a zoo.

It's just that this orangutan is wearing clothes and drinking from a stainless steel flask.

The witch became alert when she heard the sound. When she saw it, Diana and Deathstroke stopped their spell-casting gestures: "Xiao Dai, why are you here?"

After saying that, he gave Su Ming a roll of his eyes.

"We defeated the Lord of Order. The crisis has passed for the time being. We are here to deal with Bobo's matter. There are many people who want to hang him." Diana and Zatanna hugged, and the two stood together looking at the cage. The orangutan in the story, Bobo, seems to have seen through the world of mortals, just drinking silently and waiting to die.

Su Ming just laughed at Zatanna's performance, and Diana wasn't even angry. Who knows why she was angry.

Forget it, maybe it happens to be on those days of the month.

He walked straight to the cage. The golden straw poked out from the cage. The orangutan made a circular nest for himself and was half-lying comfortably in it.

Su Ming glanced at the orangutan, and the orangutan also glanced at him.

Those dark eyes were filled with a look back at death, and Bobo seemed to be planning to use his own death to give an explanation to the people.

So Deathstroke outside the cage nodded, took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it, as if he felt the will of the orangutan, and nodded gently.

He took out a wilted flower from his pocket and leaned it against the iron railing. He took out wine and sprinkled some on the ground. He also lit a cigarette, poked a hole in the stone bricks on the ground with his little finger, and put the cigarette on the stone brick. Insert it upside down like a scent.

"farewell."

After saying that, Deathstroke stood up and stretched out his index finger to wipe his dry upper cheek, as if wiping away non-existent tears.

As a result, Bobo jumped up and shook his head like a rattle: "What are you doing! Are you going to pay tribute to me while I'm still alive?! Are you going to bow three times and send me away directly?! Dai Anna, help! I don’t want to die!”

Diana and Zatanna looked at each other, then turned their attention to the orangutan.

Both of them were smiling half-heartedly as if they were watching a good show. They didn't say anything, they just hugged each other and continued to watch his performance.

Bobo is definitely the person who is most afraid of death in the Dark Alliance. They know very well how the orangutan who always hides behind Diana's thighs during the battle can wait quietly in the dungeon to die and still look like he has a great understanding. ?

It must be pretending.

Zatanna went into the dungeon with the intention of leading the orangutan to escape, but Bobo refused to leave and said a lot of impassioned words, as if she was preparing to die as a martyr.

In fact, to put it bluntly, he knew he couldn't leave, otherwise it would cause trouble for the Blue Devils. The opposition was lacking an excuse to deal with the Blue Devils.

In addition, he couldn't believe Xiao Zha's plan. Su Ming was more reliable, and Bobo was just waiting for Deathstroke to come with the plan.

When the death knell comes, the orangutan still puts on a show and wants to show off his heroic spirit. Otherwise, it would be so shameless to just be the one carrying bags or driving the car.

After the task is over, if Tracey comes back and asks: ‘Boss, what contribution have you made? ’

Aren't you speechless? Apart from playing with the computer for a while in Sepurk, I did nothing and looked so useless.

Now that I have the opportunity to act more heroic, it looks good. I was imprisoned in the dungeon for the sake of justice. Isn’t that heroic?

As a result, when the death knell came, he didn't say anything about his plan, as if he was directly preparing to send him to the 'Great Other Side'.

That's when he panicked.
