MTL - The Last King of Darkness-Chapter 15 Hahaha
Rhode walked out with the man in gray under everyone's attention.
It was quiet in the common room, no sound at all.
No one is unaware of the House Tribunal, a fabled institution of terror known throughout the kingdom.
But it wasn't until today that they saw the real Court of Internal Affairs for the first time, the first time they saw the Court of Internal Affairs take a person away.
or their companions.
It wasn't until they were gone for a long time that there was no sound in the common room.
It was Wayne's weeping voice.
"Rod won't come back, will he?"
It was as if a switch had been flipped, and in an instant, various sounds erupted in the lounge.
"is this real?"
"It's not fake, is it?"
"Impossible, the college can't let counterfeiters in, and the award badge can't be counterfeited."
"Oh my God, the inspector general, this is the second most important person after the chief adjudicator."
"What did he do?"
"I don't know... I heard in the town that Doomsday believers deliberately poured corrosive water into the water tank, and the Internal Affairs Tribunal only sent investigators to arrest people."
"Isn't it?"
It was hard for everyone to imagine what the inspector had to do in person, talking about the reasons they imagined, but many people were optimistic, because the inspector seemed very polite and didn't seem to be arresting. Appearance of catching criminals.
Only Kashan didn't speak, her face was gloomy and uncertain.
—
When the long-awaited trial came, Rhodes was not so nervous.
Lauren, the man in gray, was also very friendly. The moment he walked out of the door of the lounge, he smiled and said, "Hello, all eyes are on your husband, Vermeer's White Wolf asked me to say hello to you."
Rhodes was a little stunned: "You know that too?"
Lauren smiled and said, "Of course I know, Miss Qingyu told me everything."
His grey eyes gave him a meaningful look.
"Otherwise you should have been interrogated long ago in our dungeon."
Rhodes was a little fortunate in his heart, my magic was really not in vain, and the choice of hugging the thigh was the right one.
He was also a little worried. He just said that the white wolf greeted him, but the blue and white young lady didn't, which proved that his skill was not at home.
Looks like I need more practice.
Rhodes thought to himself.
The inspector seemed to be very talkative, maybe it wasn't as bad as I thought.
The two walked through the tree-lined path and came to the main road of the academy. A blue-purple four-wheeled carriage was parked on the side of the road.
It was austere in style and large in body, and it was a very standard carriage.
Just no horses.
Lauren opened the door and smiled, "Get in the car, I miss you Mr. Ye."
Rhodes is a little unhappy, how can you say my truth casually?
But now he is not qualified to protest, he can only step on the threshold of the car silently and get into the car.
The space inside the car is more spacious than expected, but the benches are wooden and hard.
Lauren got into the car and sat across from him.
Then the carriage started.
The wheels screeched lightly on the cobblestone road, and the scene outside the window moved backwards, as students on the road made way for it.
And no one expressed surprise at the carriage without horses.
"Okay," Rhode thought to himself, "this is another strange thing in this strange human kingdom."
But on second thought, this is not too strange. After all, people here can use even more strange powers. What happened to a carriage without horses?
Cars in my world don't use horses.
Lauren had been watching him with interest until this moment:
"Rod from Red Rock Village, congratulations on becoming a student of Jinworth College. You are also a fire keeper. I hope you can fight to protect the fire in the future."
Rhode replied politely, "Thank you, I will."
"However, you must know that Jinworth's students are not exempt from such a felony. The destruction of the Red Rock Village Migration Team is not a culprit, but the enemy. The stronger the enemy, the faster we will destroy it."
Rhode's heart froze, did they see it? Is my purpose obvious?
Lauren's gray eyes looked at him, and her voice was thick and magnetic.
"Rod, you have to understand that all the evidence is very unfavorable to you now. The only reason that you have not entered the prison is the guarantee of the guardian Qing Yu. Although I also support her judgment, the Internal Affairs Judgment does not Using emotions and subjective inferences as evidence, we can only make judgments based on facts. If your suspicion is too great, we will initiate a special review.”
Rhodes asked nervously, "What about the special review?"
Lauren replied calmly: "The soul is broken, and there will be nine deaths."
Rhode felt a chill running up from behind: "Then what should I do now?"
"Do your best to cooperate with my investigation. Your attitude is very important, which is why I came to you today." Lauren took out a letter from her arms and put it on the table: "Do you know what this is?"
Rhode looked carefully, the letter was yellow, wrinkled, and the writing was clear, but he only knew a few.
"do not know."
He looked up and saw Lauren's gray eyes fixed on him.
"This is a letter you wrote to Alai the Grey Cat, the clerk of the Grey Moss Street Office. You used a code word in your letter, asking him to put a box at a designated location."
Rhodes felt something was wrong.
"Mr. Lauren, I don't remember at all, my memory hasn't come back."
Lauren nodded: "I know, Uther testified for you, your soul state is complicated. But you can ignite the fire of the soul and prove that its state is within the acceptable range."
Rhodes was slightly happy, but also a little sad, and asked, "So are we going to find him now?"
Lauren shook his head: "Alai the grey cat disappeared a long time ago. We only found his body in the sewers of Iron Shield Street yesterday. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"
Rhode's heart sank, and he had a bad premonition:
"Then what? Are there any clues?"
Lauren said: "It has been confirmed that the gray cat Alai went to Blessed Church the day before he disappeared, but the pastor of Blessed Church has been confirmed to be a believer of the Doomsday sect, and he is also missing now. I used a special method to find it. A clue that he is currently near the first district of the outer city of Xiacheng District, which is also your original residence, you need to investigate with me."
"it is good."
"I remember you are from the Spark Sequence, what is your soul fire?"
Rhodes was a little depressed, and reported the official answer: "Black rice bucket."
Lauren didn't seem to laugh. "What is the ability?"
Rhodes hesitated for a while and replied, "I'm not very clear, but I feel like my eyes are a little sharper."
"Have you learned to fight?"
"No, Mr. Karaman talked about the use of psionic energy in battle, but I haven't experienced it in actual combat."
Lauren nodded: "It doesn't matter, you follow me and try to use your abilities to assist my investigation."
His gray eyes looked at Rhodes.
"The chief officer in charge of this case is my teacher, the chief adjudicator, Alighieri Dan Black Bear. This is your chance."
Rhode felt that he seemed to have something to say. Although he didn't quite understand it, he still answered cautiously: "I understand."
After a while, the horseless car stopped.
It was a filthy and muddy neighborhood, with dimly lit fronts of dilapidated houses.
When getting out of the car, Lauren suddenly asked again: "What do you think your soul fire is?"
"Black rice bucket."
"Hahaha."
