The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes

Vol 4 Chapter 1327: Yi Qingtian's Case (Part 1)

"The defendant violated local law by illegally using magic to attack others, resulting in serious injury to one of the victims."

As soon as Ah Fu finished speaking, there was a chatter in the auditorium.

Because of the great power of magic, there are laws and regulations restricting the use of magic everywhere, so as not to destroy the towns and villages.

After Charles became the head of the family, he always followed the laws and regulations of the territory, but only fixed the marriage tax and marriage certificate.

In terms of the laws restricting the use of magic in the territory, the terms here are not much different from those in other places. Without the authorization of the lord, in addition to hunting monsters, you can only use magic on others when you are in an emergency.

This is what the law stipulates, but there are many "flexible" ways to circumvent it when it is implemented.

Anyway, when a lawsuit is filed, it is not necessary for the aristocratic master to personally go out and send an agent to the court to spend it, and it will be over if it is consumed.

As far as the current case is concerned, if it happened in other places, if the defendant had a tough backstage, it would just be a matter of going through the courtroom, and the guilt and innocence were all in the mind of the local lord.

Charles has his own considerations in trying this case in person today, mainly because there are many adventurers in the underground labyrinth town in the south, and it is necessary to use this matter as a wake-up call for them, lest any head be caught by the door and cause trouble. end.

It's not that I'm worried that they won't be able to beat them. The Kewen security guards stationed here all made military exploits when they killed the undead a year ago, and then they were selected internally by fists.

Not to mention that they were mixed up with Reimu, and if they couldn't beat them, they could still call in their ancestors' spirits to help.

The main reason is that this group of people played a lot, and they liked to use huge weapons, which caused more damage than the perpetrators.

"dong dong dong"

Charles knocked the wooden hammer a few times, and the auditorium suddenly fell silent.

He looked at the defendant and asked, "Does the defendant disagree with the plaintiff's accusation?"

Look at me for those six people, I look at you, and then push the young man named Hongsong back and forth.

After saluting Charles, Hongsong said, "Report to the Justice, we used magic this time to catch the murderer of Master, please forgive me."

Charles frowned and asked, "Baron Dinbach was killed?"

Hongsong replied sadly: "Yes, our master was killed by Spruce not long ago."

"Spruce is the one who was injured by us just now."

Charles pondered for a moment, and then let the person who was beaten by the group just now be carried up.

Although Charles threw a few healing techniques on Spruce, he only managed to stop the other party's injury, and his body was still very weak, so he could only lie on a stretcher.

As soon as the person was lifted up, six murderous auras poured out from the dock.

The auditorium became lively again, and the audience did not expect to encounter a case related to the death of the nobleman.

"Boom!"

When Charles hit the hammer, he used the Ningshen halo to calm them down.

"I can't just listen to your one-sided words." Charles said seriously, "I can't decide the death of Baron Dinbach. I will transfer the case to the noble court of Biberach."

"Now what I need to decide is whether you are taking revenge or killing people."

If it is revenge, according to the existing laws and traditions, it is enough to warn him, just like when he killed Allen.

If it is killing people, then it will be a big thing, and then people will be sent to the relevant departments of the Biberach Kingdom.

Justice Yi was a little depressed. If it was an ordinary case of vendetta, robbery, and love murder, it would be fine, but he didn't expect it to involve the death of the nobles of the Biberach Kingdom.

This kind of case is a quagmire, and you can't please yourself if you jump into it.

He looked at the spruce on the stretcher and asked, "What do you have to say?"

Yunshan struggled to sit up, like a drowning man who grabbed a lifebuoy, shouting with all his strength, "I didn't kill Master!"

"Nonsense!" Several people on the Hongsong side were instantly full of anger.

"Dong Dong Dong!"

Charles knocked the wooden hammer a few times and said sternly: "If anyone talks without my consent, pull them out and beat them."

The security guards who were more than two meters tall snorted coldly, and the six guys immediately gave up.

The courtroom fell silent, and Charles said to Spruce, "Tell me what happened first."

Spruce stood up with difficulty, and then said: "This summer, the teacher took us to the knowledge city to participate in the carnival. We were fortunate to see His Excellency the Justice there, but we were unable to talk to Your Excellency."

"We didn't come back from Knowledge City until not long ago. After returning to the Magic Tower, the other brothers went out shopping. Master and I cleaned up."

"At that time, Master said to go to the wood warehouse in the basement to clean it up. I cleaned it upstairs."

"Until lunch time, I called Master twice at the entrance of the basement to invite him to come up for dinner, but there was no response."

"So I went to the basement and found the master lying dead at the door of the warehouse."

Charles frowned, looked at the red pine and the others, and asked, "How is the ventilation in the basement?"

The young man named Paulownia replied, "Report to the judge, there is a vent in the basement of Master's Magic Tower."

"Master bought a lot of hair dryers after they were sold in the past few years. After the renovation, they were installed on the vents. It was also stipulated that the hair dryer must be turned on for ventilation before going down to the basement."

Charles nodded, then asked Spruce again, "Has Baron Dinbach ventilated before going down to the basement?"

Spruce immediately replied: "Last year Paulownia added a new switch to the hair dryer. As long as the door of the basement is opened, the hair dryer will automatically work."

Charles looked at Paulownia, and he nodded.

At this time, Hongsong raised his hand to say something.

After Charles nodded, he said sadly and indignantly: "Report to the justice, Spruce and Master had a conflict in Knowledge City, and then they quarreled almost every day."

"That day we wanted to resolve the conflict between Master and him alone, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect him to kill Master."

Tears welled up in his eyes when he finished speaking, as did the other five.

At this time, Yunshan didn't care whether or not she had the approval of Justice Yi, and he hurriedly shouted: "I really didn't kill Master!"

"We were just arguing about whether to use a machine to make a magic wand. On the way back, Master has already agreed to let me try it myself!"

Then he looked at Charles and said, "Your Excellency, after I saw the automatic nail machine at Shield Bridge College and the machine tool at the Forging Seminary, I was wondering if I could use a machine to make a magic wand by hand. There were some academic disputes."

"This dispute was resolved when we took the plane on the way back. After seeing so many planes at the airport, Master felt that since the machine can manufacture flying tools in large quantities, it is also possible to manufacture magic wands."

"He said to me before he went to the basement that when spring comes, let's go to the machine tool factory in Lerick Kingdom to see if there is a suitable machine tool."

"So I have no reason to kill Master!"

Recently, there have been quite a few conflicts like their master and apprentice. Those with a vision have seen the revolutionary changes brought about by machines, while some people are clinging to the old ways, not knowing how many grievances and grievances have arisen.

Charles frowned, suddenly remembering something.

He asked Hongsong, "How was the situation when you returned to the Magic Tower?"

Hongsong wiped away her tears and sobbed: "After we bought things and returned to the Magic Tower, we saw Spruce carrying Master's body on his back and preparing to abandon it... After we found it, we absconded in fear of the crime!"

"Nonsense!" Spruce roared angrily, tears streaming down her eyes, "I didn't believe Master passed away at that time, I just wanted to send him to church..."

"You guys didn't listen to me when you saw that Master passed away, you just wanted to kill me, and I had to leave first."

Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel, Charles knocked on the wooden hammer to quiet them down.

"I said..." Charles asked them helplessly, "What did you do with Baron Dinbach's body? Has it been buried?"

All the young people were stunned for a moment, then their faces turned pale, and the cold sweat on their foreheads was dripping down.

Charles immediately understood when he saw this, frowned, and prepared to adjourn the court to collect Baron Dingbach's body first.

Who knows, before his wooden hammer falls, an unexpected guest arrives.

After the notification and permission from Charles, the neighbor Marquis Hermanlik walked into the courtroom with his helmet tucked under the armpit of his left hand, despite the severe cold wearing a thick armor.

The black bear-like Marquis Hermanlik glanced coldly at Hongsong and the others, and then said to Charles in a business-like manner: "Earl McGarden, Baron Dinbach in our country was killed, and his apprentices disappeared collectively. These people have serious suspicions. , I implore you to help me arrest them."

Charles solemnly said: "I deeply regret the death of Baron Dinbach. His seven apprentices were previously tried in court for violating local laws."

"Please wait for a while, and they will be handed over to you after the judgment of this court is over."

He thought that the one who took the hot potato was still here~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I didn't expect it to come so quickly.

"Okay." Marquis Hermanlik nodded and took a seat in the first row of the auditorium.

Now that you are someone who can't be underestimated, not to mention, he was on the bridge a while ago and shouted thousands of bandits in anger, so that the other party didn't dare to take half a step forward, and the body of the frightened bandit blocked the river. , The story of holding the queen back to fight for three days and three nights has been sung by bards in the north.

The Hermanlik family, who are heirlooms of military exploits, must respect such characters.

There is no need to hurry to collect the corpse. What Charles has to do now is to determine whether Baron Dinbach was killed by that spruce.

"Boom!"

The wooden hammer in Justice Yi's hand slammed **** the table.

"I have a few questions." He glanced at the young people below, "You must answer truthfully."
