Chapter 178 Who Allowed You to Speak?
The congressmen were talking in low voices. Under the influence of the Panic Detection Technique, the truth and falsehood in Tang En's words were clear to everyone.
But precisely because of this, they were unable to deal with Tang En.
Hog Pope was not killed by him, and the lie detector test confirmed that what he said was true. What else could be done?
Didn’t you see that even Count Pope gave up?
Unless...unless you decide to ignore the results of the polygraph and forcibly convict him!
Even though these nobles were already accustomed to being shameless, they felt a little blushing now.
Especially this is under the witness of divine magic...
Leander suddenly said: "In that case, the case of Hog Pope's death is closed and Baron Down is acquitted."
Count Pope's face was ashen and he clenched his fists tightly. But at this moment, Leander shook his head slightly at him, and Count Pope finally calmed down.
Immediately afterwards, he heard a plain voice saying: "Now that the farce is over, can we talk about business?"
Count Pope stood up angrily: "A farce!? How dare you say that my son's death is a farce!?"
"What I said, do you have any objections?"
A man in his twenties or thirties was sitting in front of the jury box. Tang En glanced at him. This guy looked quite handsome. His facial features were very Greek-like. His slightly curly blond hair added a lot to his appearance. point.
This guy was sitting there, playing with the ring on the finger of his left hand with his right hand, his eyes always looking down at Tang En, like looking at an ant waiting to be slaughtered.
"Marquis Kadir!"
When Earl Pope saw this man, his face turned pale: "I, I have no objection..."
"If you don't have any objection, get out of here."
When Count Pope heard this, he didn't dare to say anything. He didn't care that the noble council was in progress, and actually turned his head and left in despair.
Tang En was surprised, this guy seems very cool? That Count Pope was so scolded that he didn't even dare to fart.
"In that case, let's deal with the Qadir family's affairs next."
Leandre knocked the hammer, coughed lightly, and said calmly: "As far as we know, Baron Down went to Fort Casparmi more than a month ago, met with Lord Duvier Cadir, and then held a sword. He broke into the lord's mansion and assassinated the lord Duvier Kadir, Baron Down. Is this true? Please answer."
Tang En nodded very calmly: "That's right."
"In other words, you admit your crime of killing Baron Duvier Cardir?"
"Well, because he-"
Leandre interrupted Tang En: "Do you admit the crime of killing Baron Duvier?"
Leandre's question was very clever, avoiding opportunities for Tang En to defend himself and convicting him directly.
"oh?"
Tang En suddenly laughed. He also saw the intention of these guys: "You want to convict me directly? Interesting."
"Please be serious!"
Leander's face darkened: "Otherwise, the crime will be increased!"
"Okay, okay, stop doing this. Isn't it just a slap in the face? I've seen it a lot."
Tang En curled his lips: "You are a little too young to play this trick in front of me."
"It seems you are unwilling to plead guilty?"
"You are not guilty, so how can you plead guilty?"
Tang En sneered: "Isn't the truth released by the Mercenary Guild enough to explain the problem?"
Leander's eyes flickered: "The Mercenary Guild is a mercenary guild, and we are a noble council. We only believe in our own investigation!"
Oh, this is so blatantly shameless.
"I'm too lazy to talk in circles with you."
Tang En glanced at the sky and said impatiently: "I killed Duvier, but the reason why I killed him——"
Leandre immediately interrupted Tang En: "Since you have confessed, I declare -"
"Shut up."
Tang En suddenly said coldly: "Who allowed you to speak?"
The voice was plain, but full of irresistible majesty. Leander, who was targeted by Tang En, felt that his whole body could not move, as if there was a mountain pressing on him.
Tang En continued to say calmly: "Let's not say whether I am guilty or not. Even if I am guilty, you are not qualified to judge me."
"presumptuous!"
The congressman next to him was furious: "The Parliament of Nobles is the highest judicial body of the empire! It has the absolute right to judge and convict the nobles of the empire! You will be punished for being so unscrupulous!"
Tang En glanced over, and the congressmen froze one by one.
The look in his eyes is so terrifying!
"Are you Marquis Kadir?"
Tang En looked at the man and shook his head: "He doesn't look like Duvier's father, but more like a brother. It's a pity."
"I, Charles Kadir, am currently the deputy head of the Kadir family, and I can be considered his elder brother."
Charles said calmly: "What advice do you have?"
"Does that mean you have the final say on the Qadir family now?"
Tang En smiled: "Very good, in that case, I have an account to settle with you after the meeting is over, so don't leave."
Charles sneered: "Let's wait until you can leave here."
"Don't worry, it won't be long."
Tang En yawned and said to the jurors in the audience who did not know the truth: "One of Duvier's crimes was to blatantly trample on the laws of the empire, occupy the Brussels iron mines where Ellington belongs without authorization, and enslave Ellington. The residents of Dayton were forced into mining service.”
"The second crime of Duvier is that after my lord took back the Brussels Iron Mines, he ignored my lord's request for peace and refused to compensate Ellington for his losses. Instead, he declared war on Ellington and sent his soldiers to try to destroy Ellington. Dayton, resulting in Ellington's loss..."
Thinking of the lie detector at his feet, Tang En paused, retracted his words that he wanted to pretend to be pitiful, and continued without changing his expression or heart: "Duvier's third crime is that Baron Duvier colluded with Carmen, the priest of the Serpent of Darkness. .Pal, ordered his men to secretly kidnap hundreds of girls in the territory for Carmen to sacrifice... If nothing else, I think this third article alone is enough to prove that Duvier died unjustly."
Dark snake!
Suddenly hearing this name, the faces of the jurors sitting there changed, and they all lowered their voices and started talking.
They couldn't help but feel nervous, because when Tang En said these words, the polygraph did not respond, which meant that everything he said was true!
"Oh, by the way, I think the Mercenary Guild should have found a letter. I guess that letter might have been lost for one reason or another, right?"
With a smile, Tang En took out the envelope that he had copied from his arms and threw it in front of the jurors: "But I have another copy here. This is the previous letter between Duvier and the members of the Serpent of Darkness. You can take a look."
Then, Tang En said with a smile: "Also, I have to add that the ones found by the Mercenary Guild and this are all copied. I have hidden the originals. There are as many copies as you want, so don't worry."
Leander, who couldn't move, almost vomited blood when he heard this!
They wasted a lot of resources and strength to finally calm down the Duvier incident. The nobles were actually involved with the Serpent of Darkness. No matter who knew about this outcome, it would not be a good thing.
So they waited until the matter subsided before summoning Tang En, intending to take the opportunity to hammer this new member of the royal family's faction into not being too arrogant.
As a result...who would have thought that he was still holding the letter in his hand!
Charles's face suddenly became extremely gloomy.
The jurors next to him looked at him strangely.
These fools!
Charles cursed secretly, stood up, waved his hands and prepared to leave.
"Mr. Charles, please don't go."
Tang En stopped him and said calmly: "Baron Duvier and I had already negotiated the compensation matter. He confessed to the misappropriation of Ellington's property and agreed to compensate for the illegal gains. We signed an agreement on this. Contract, since you are now the acting patriarch of the Kadir family, I think you need to take a look at this contract."
Charles took a deep breath, with a gloomy look on his face: "What contract?"
"Please take a look."
Tang En smiled slightly and publicly showed the contract in his hand.
The jurors only took a cursory look, and suddenly there was a sound of inhalation. They all looked at Tang En in horror, as if they were looking at some monster.
"Haha...haha...hahahaha..."
After reading the contract, Charles suddenly burst into laughter, so much that tears came to his eyes.
Tang En didn't say anything, just waiting for him to laugh.
After a few minutes, Charles finally stopped laughing. He looked at Tang En as if he were looking at an idiot: "I wasn't sure before, but I am sure now. You are really an idiot."
"Really? I think I'm pretty smart."
"No, you really are an idiot."
Charles shook his head, with a sneer on his face: "Two million gold coins? You really dare to ask for it! Do you think the gold coins of our Qadir family were all blown by the strong wind?"
"No," Tang En said very seriously, "I think all your family's gold coins were stolen."
"you--"
Charles took a deep breath and said coldly: "I will not recognize the contract you signed with Duvier. It is ridiculous, and the authenticity of this contract is very questionable. I think Duvier is You signed this contract under duress, so the contract is invalid!"
The smile on Tang En's face gradually disappeared: "In other words, the Kadir family wants to default on its debt?"
"We have never owed a debt, so how can we default on it? Baron Down, in Alyinx, don't think too highly of yourself, or you may fall half to death."
Charles sneered, turned and left.
"I won't fall to death."
Tang En raised the corner of his mouth: "But you can't decide."
As soon as he finished speaking, Charles, who had just reached the stairs, suddenly groaned, his feet slipped, and he rolled down the stairs in embarrassment!
Are we dazzled?
The jurors were stunned. Why did the Marquis of Kadir fall?
At the bottom of the stairs, Charles, who fell to the ground half-dead in pain, looked extremely ugly.
