MTL - Congratulations on Your Arrest-Chapter 59 The night is coming

  Chapter 59 The wind rises and the rain falls and the night is coming

  Year 1121 of the Tianyuan calendar.

   December 1st.

   Cloudy to light rain,

  Heavy rain in some areas.

  For the vast majority of ordinary office workers and students in the city of Tokyo, this is just an ordinary rest day at the end of this autumn.

  The weather is not good, so I lie at home and sleep late. After waking up, I turn on the TV and watch the news while eating.

However, after changing several channels in a row, you will find that all major channels across the country are carrying out the same live broadcast at the same time today - the TV screen shows a middle-aged bald man being interviewed in the harbor against the sea breeze, surrounded by countless people carrying long guns Short gun media reporter.

"Ahem! This public execution is of great significance to Wano Country. I believe it can effectively further consolidate the law and order in the East China Sea. At the same time, it will issue a serious warning to the illegal and criminal groups of the pirates and evil forces, and it will also promote national trade. It provides a practical guarantee for the safety of export property.”

"The Metropolitan Police Department of New Tokyo has made a solemn promise: we will clean up and complete all Sigmunger's industries in the city with Operation Thunder within the next month, and create a safe and happy urban living environment for everyone. Please place more trust and cooperation in our Metropolitan Police Department."

  As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, reporters swarmed up from below, scrambling to hand over the microphone in their hands, and asked sharp questions one after another for fear that the world would not be chaotic.

"Minister Takagimoto! Minister Takagimoto! I am a reporter from Kanto Shimbun. Regarding the high number of disappearance cases and families of missing persons who have protested in large numbers for the past six months, where does the Metropolitan Police Department have the confidence to make such a promise? Director Matsumoto last week Have you ever publicly bowed and apologized at the Metropolitan Police Department building? Will the people still bow and apologize a month later?"

"Minister Takagimoto, I'm a reporter from New Tokyo TV. Someone revealed that the executed members of the 'Sakamoto Dragon' pirate group were executed this time. According to records, the Sakamoto Dragon was once a hero who fought against heaven and man in history. Excuse me. Does this execution represent Wano's betrayal of history?"

"Minister Gao Mumoto, I heard that a total of eight warships were mobilized for today's execution. The captains of the thirteen divisions of the third investigation team dispatched ten of them, and even dispatched three people with absolute abilities from the royal family behind the Sakurada Gate. In addition, the elite of Judge Adams Carr, one of the twelve rulings of the Judgment Division, and Councilor Hope, who is watching the sentence, hey! With so many top-level capable people, I feel that even a small country can be defeated, right? May I ask who we are? What are you afraid of?"

  “.”

  Faced with the reporters’ indiscriminate bombardment of questions one after another, Shin Takagi, the head of the Metropolitan Police Department, quickly became overwhelmed, and the deputy director, Tomo Matsumoto, quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

   As soon as he came up, a female reporter put the microphone against his mouth—this familiar and strange feeling was really unpleasant, and the questions he asked made him unable to answer.

"Director Matsumoto, this execution will be carried out by the Judgment Division of the Celestial Beings. May I ask if this means that the Wano Country and the World Government will jointly enforce the law, and whether the Heavens and Humans will have the opportunity to treat them equally when they violate laws and regulations in the Wano Country. Matsumoto Director! Director! Please answer directly!"

  Answer what? Answer!

  Even if Celestials break the law in Wano Country, they can only be handed over to the Tribunal of Celestial Beings. Where do they have the right to deal with Celestial Beings?

   At some point, the flag of the port was stretched by the sea breeze, and thick rain clouds rolled like mountains in the distant sky, silently announcing that Rising Sun Port belonged to the local area in the weather forecast.

   On the scaffold in the port,

  Suddenly, there was a neat row of gunshots!

   This is not a signal of execution or execution, but a warning shot before execution to demonstrate the majesty of the law and the Metropolitan Police Department. The real execution time is at three o'clock in the afternoon.

   Despite this, there are more and more people in the vacated square in the middle of the port.

The six major TV stations including Wano NHK, Asahi and New Tokyo have already arranged countless broadcasting positions on the scene. The huge camera on the crane is aimed at the scene like a huge cannon barrel, and many wireless suspended cameras are arranged around it. , faithfully like a patrolling soldier, gathered all the vigilant details on the scene and sent them back to the main control room at the port site.

  The execution platform is directly above.

A row of dignitaries who could be named on the TV sat there solemnly or calmly. Behind and in the aisles on both sides were rows of law enforcement officers wearing navy blue uniforms or dark uniforms of the Judiciary. Keep your hand on the weapon without squinting.

  Before they came, they more or less knew what they were going to face today. Everyone's face was tense and serious, and they just waited for the big men in front of them to give an order, and they would tear the criminals into pieces.

  That’s right, everyone at the execution site today is a power user of level four or above. Ordinary people can only become sad cannon fodder in the battle between such power users.

  However, before the execution in the afternoon, many enthusiastic people came to the scene in the morning.

  The videographer in the main control room controls the suspended boom camera, and the lens slowly sweeps over the excited or numb, sincere or disguised faces of these people.

  In a corner of the crowd, a beautiful female reporter from Fuji TV wearing a black down jacket and short skirt and boots was conducting a random interview. The interviewee was an ordinary middle-aged man, and his eyes were a little dodgy when facing the camera.

   "Do you support the public execution of pirates?"

   "Support! Of course support!"

   "What an uncle with a sense of justice! Can I ask why?"

   "My father used to be a sailor on a trading ship. He died in the battle of the evil pirate group robbing the ship. These pirates should have died long ago! Justice must prevail!"

   Speaking of excitement, he raised his clenched fist to the camera.

  Unexpectedly, at this moment, a young man suddenly asked angrily by the camera.

   "Justice must prevail? Are you kidding me! Then why don't you execute those damned celestial beings together, my sister was killed"

  Chi Chi Chi Chi—!

  Amidst the sound of electric current,

  The screen of Fuji TV changed.

   "The following is a piece of entertainment news. A well-known male artist cheated on a married female artist. The reporter captured a picture of the two of them entering a hotel together to spend a good night together. The male artist left the hotel at three o'clock in the morning."

   Poof!

  At the container toll station in the offshore port not far from the execution site, Higashinohara, who was in charge of registration in a blue overalls, watched the live broadcast that was suddenly cut off on his mobile phone.

   Almost spit out a mouthful of water.

  This Fuji station is quite coquettish

  Boom boom boom—!

  At this time, there was a knocking sound on the rain-stained window next to it.

  An uncle in his forties was holding two bentos, pushed one in through the opened window, and said with a smile:

   "Brother is lucky. Today's work is ten times less than before. The boss said that the place will be cleared in the afternoon. You can go home directly after the last batch of containers are registered."

"OK, thanks."

   Higashinohara took the work meal from the window.

   Opened it and saw that there are two meat and one vegetarian dishes and a small portion of miso soup, the food is not bad.

  Do you want to clear the venue in the afternoon?

  It seems that today's execution will not be so smooth.

  Although Higashinohara didn't know what was going on inside, he was not stupid. Just looking at the impenetrable formation at the execution site today, he knew what they were guarding against.

I heard that there are three seventh-level absolute ability users behind the Sakurada Gate today, all of whom are "strategic-level talents" from Wano Country. 36 [Bingshu] Heishui Taidou, the controller, and Gen Shinichi, the controller of Talent Sequence 52 [Wuying].

Genshinichi is said to have been born in the imperial family, and was the uncle of the current emperor. He only awakened his ability at the age of thirty-three, and later became obsessed with the masters of several schools of swordsmanship in kendo. He realized his own "Muying Yidao style" and became Wano A well-known swordsman.

  These three "strategic-level talents" from Wano Kingdom don't hold posts in any department. They just sit in the imperial palace behind the Sakurada Gate. It is difficult to meet any of them on weekdays, let alone three of them appearing together today.

do not know when,

  In the distant sky, a black python was entrenched over Rising Sun Harbor, and the rain clouds burst into thunder, and raindrops fell overwhelmingly.

  The whimpering sea breeze at the port became more and more wild, and the raindrops wrapped in pea-sized raindrops made people's cheeks red and painful.

  The storm has come.

   After eating, Higashinohara packed up the toll booth registration form and changed his work clothes.

   When changing into his own clothes, he inadvertently glanced through the glass.

  Higashi Nohara suddenly saw in the undulating black waves on the sea far away from Rising Sun Port, a huge black shadow tore through the dark clouds above his head and the black waves under his feet, and rushed towards Rising Sun Port like that.

  The next brake,

   A huge wave rolled over the sea!

  Behind the black shadows, more black shadows are like the dorsal fins of sharks constantly emerging from the sea, cutting through the raging black current in the heavy rain and coming towards the harbor with wind and waves.

   It can be vaguely seen that the black shadow at the front is wrapped with a huge black dragon banner.

   Woo-!

  The next moment!

   Loud sirens sounded throughout the port!

   The second is asking for tickets lol~
