King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 791 The So-called Trial

Yu Jin was wandering around in Fontaine Court, and then he was dragged to the Zhilu Court by the security team that arrived.

When asked the reason, it turned out to be the day of the young master's trial.

"No? Don't you have any other means of transportation in Fontaine? Why is it this ridiculously slow patrol ship?"

Sitting on the patrol boat, the young master seemed very impatient.

This patrol ship was specially made. From the outside, it was painted with the emblem of the Law Enforcement Court. From the personnel configuration, there were no Melusin inside, but instead there were members of the security team.

But there is one thing that has not changed about this patrol ship - that is its turtle-like speed.

"Well... to be honest, the patrol waterway was built by the former president of the Thorn Rose Society, Carres. The design speed is just so fast, and there is nothing we can do about it."

The security guard on the opposite side is not as serious as he should be. What nonsense! He is even pretending to be tough in front of the executive officer. He deserves a beating.

"What? This thing was done by the ThornRose Society?" Yu Jin was shocked when he heard that. Normally, the ThornRose Society seemed to be quite frivolous. How could this group of people be so capable?

"That's right. When Mr. Carres was alive, the Thorn Rose Society was at its most prosperous. At that time, the Thorn Rose Society was fully capable of building this waterway that runs through Fontaine."

"Then why did you go to Fontaine?"

"..."

The guard stopped talking now. He turned his head and looked at the scenery!

"Hahaha, now that you put it that way, I can barely forgive the shortcomings of this thing." The young master couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing the conversation between the two.

He also accepted the shortcomings of the slow running of the patrol ship. After all, it was only built by a local force in Fontaine, so he couldn't ask for too much.

Of course, if it was built by the Fontaine authorities, that would be another matter. Apart from anything else, the young master would definitely give strong opinions.

The water in the waterway was flowing, and the oars of the patrol boat were shaking, and after a while, everyone finally arrived at the final destination - the Opryk Theater.

"Wow! That's really impressive!"

Looking at the avenue leading directly to the theater, the young master couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

The streets are paved with white marble, which is wide enough without any traces of splicing.

On both sides of the avenue, artificial springs gushed water according to a specific pattern. From a distance, it seemed as if the entire street was wrapped in beautiful music.

At the end of the avenue was an extremely luxurious and tall building. Needless to say, it must be the Oprykle Opera Company.

"It really is a theater." Yu Jin was no less surprised than Gongzi. He was mainly surprised that this place was actually a theater.

He originally thought that "theater" was an adjective. After all, it is the place where trials are held, that is, the court. And the court and the theater... there is still a big gap between the two.

"Yes, this is the theater, and there are plays performed every day, without stopping for a moment."

"Today's drama has been anticipated by many people for a long time."

The guard on the side nodded to Yu Jin and Gong Zi, and then he pointed to the path beside him:

"You two, follow me. This is where the defendant is going."

Upon hearing this, Yu Jin and Gong Zi looked at each other and followed the guards along the path towards the theater.

……

There were only a few people in the Opikle Opera Company, so the conversation between the Young Master and Yu Jin was extremely eye-catching.

"Is this the defendant's dock? It's quite high." Yu Jin stretched his head to look down and estimated that the height was about ten meters.

He looked across again, and that was probably the plaintiff. But who could be the plaintiff? The owner of the street?
Different from Yu Jin who was looking around excitedly, Gong Zi was sitting on the ground in a utterly ungraceful manner. He was extremely bored at the moment.

"How long will it take before we start? This is torture!"

"Then I guess you'll have to wait a bit longer. Didn't you see that there weren't many people in the audience down there?"

Yu Jin spread his hands helplessly. In his opinion, there were two biggest differences between the trial in Fontaine and other places.

The first and most eye-catching point is the fan-shaped audience seats below the plaintiff's and defendant's seats.

Judging from the number, there must be at least several hundred people.

As for the second point...that is the big scale under the judge's bench.

"This thing... why do I always feel like it's alive?" Yu Jin scratched his head, wondering if he was seeing things. The scale was in a superposition state of being half dead and half alive, making him a little confused.

"What's alive?"

"nothing."

Yu Jin shook his head. It didn't matter whether the person was alive or dead, as long as it didn't affect him, it was fine.

The two chatted idly in the dock, and before they knew it, the whole theater became noisy.

Although there were many security guards patrolling below, people's curiosity could not be resisted.

"Is that the Fatui's executive officer? Can it be fake? He looks so young."

"Have you never heard of [Young Master]? He's the youngest executive officer!"

"real or fake?"

……

"Someone is praising you, did you hear that?" Yu Jin poked the sleepy young man and said jokingly.

"Um... don't bother me, wake me up when it starts." The young man mumbled in a daze without even raising his eyelids.

But the following conversation made him suddenly startled.

"Hey, hey, hey, Clorinde, which executive officer are you talking about?"

"I don't want to believe it, but that's the one sleeping on the fence."

Clorinde brought the curious Fernina to the plaintiff's seat. There was a red sofa on the plaintiff's seat, but Fernina was too lazy to sit down. The hair on her head jumped, revealing her curiosity.

"Claulinde?! Come on! Where's the judge?! Judge! I plead guilty now, but I will defend my innocence in a duel!"

As soon as the young master heard Clorinde's voice, he immediately started jumping up and down in the dock as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

His excitement was so intense that Funina sat back on the sofa - because she was afraid that the young master would jump directly from the dock.

But this was obviously impossible to happen, because Yu Jin was always pulling at the young master's clothes.

"You seem to have misunderstood the process of resolving the fight. Whether you want to simply fight or prove your innocence, all of this must be done after the trial."

The young master tried hard, but finally gave up the idea of ​​fighting right away under the advice of Ember's Iron Fist and Clorinde.

But soon, the clever man discovered another blind spot.

"Why does that guy have a chair? And it's a big sofa?" The young master pointed at Funina on the high ground and asked. How big is this sofa? It's so big that the young master thinks Funina can lie on it without any problem.

It's fine that the plaintiff's seat is higher than the defendant's, but why does the plaintiff have a special seat? Isn't the defendant a human being?

"You ask me, who should I ask? This is not a normal court at all. You want a chair? I have one."

As Yu Jin said this, he took out two small stools and sat down on them.

"Why didn't you say it earlier? My legs are sore from lying down." The young man glanced at the small bench behind him and sat down next to Yujin.

"Don't you think this fence is a little too high?" The young man looked up from his squatting position, only to find that his sight was blocked by the wooden fence in front of him.

"It seems to be true. I can't even see the people below." Yu Jin also discovered this problem.

After sitting down, the two of them could not see the audience, and the audience below could not see them either.

"Eh? Where's the person in the dock? Why is he gone?"

"Could he have fled because of the crime?!"

"Guard! Guard! Go check! The accused has escaped!"

……

The wooden wall of the defendant's seat was very high, and the bench brought by the embers was very low. So, as soon as the two sat down, the audience below found that the defendant had disappeared.

"..."

"..."

Hearing the commotion below, Yu Jin and Gong Zi both covered their faces at the same time. So this was the reason why they didn't give us seats in the dock!
