Genshin Impact: A Red Teyvat Life Starting from Zero

The presiding judge waved his hand, announcing the end of Hiiragi Shinsuke's life.

"No...no! Don't!"

The fear of death unleashed a power in Hiiragi Shinsuke that he had never possessed before.

Unfortunately, they still couldn't escape the mechanical constraints of the powered exoskeleton on the bailiffs.

The two bailiffs ignored his voice and instead held Hiiragi Shinsuke firmly in place. They then put a rope around his neck and pushed him down.

Just like Kujo Takayuki before him, Hiiragi Shinsuke's body was suspended by ropes, swaying in the wind in mid-air.

He was only taken down after being scanned and confirmed dead by a forensic doctor.

Inazuma's original shogunate designated and implemented - Hiiragi Shinsuke, Ming Zhengdong punishment.

Next came the trial of a series of secondary culprits, including the butlers of the Kujo family and the Hiiragi family, the former head of the Fools' Evil Eye Factory, and others.

Over the past three months, the relevant materials had already been prepared and perfected. There was very little for them to refute at the public trial; it was mostly just a formality.

The vast majority of those who were tried were sentenced to death.

After being "baptized" by Kujo Takayuki and Hiiragi Shinsuke, the majority of the audience remained relatively calm.

This stability continued until there was no one left in the defendants' ranks, and the gallows were filled with all sorts of "teru teru bozu" (Japanese teru bozu dolls) fluttering in the wind.

Just when everyone thought the public trial was over and many people were packing up to go home, they heard the judge's voice coming from the judge's seat again.

"Next, we will hear the case of the last defendant in this trial."

The judge's voice trembled slightly.

Oh? Anything else?

Everyone thought they had misheard.

Upon closer inspection, it was clear that the defendant's line was indeed completely empty.

They were either covered with cloth or hung on the gallows, swaying in the wind.

Who else?

And why does the judge's voice sound a little off?

"Inazumahara's supreme ruler, the shogunate's supreme leader, the Kakuzu Mikenami no Mikoto, the Raiden Shogun - Raiden Movie."

Quiet.

The square, where tens of thousands of people had gathered, was no longer as noisy as before, nor as chaotic as during the trial of Kujō Takayuki.

You can hear the needle drop.

Who?

Regardless of whether they were locals or not, they all reached up and picked at their ears or patted their foreheads.

People thought they had misheard.

In contrast to the quiet scene, Ray's film stood up and walked towards the dock amidst Charlotte's horrified gaze.

Good heavens! Is she Inazuma's infamous Thunder General?

No, no, that's not the point!

The key point is, the Inatsume people want to judge their own god?!

how come……

How could that dignified general accept such a trial?

But the facts are before our eyes.

Lei Dianying, who had just been sitting with Jiang Ming and others, even chatting and laughing, was now calmly walking towards the defendant's seat.

It seems they already knew about this matter and the outcome.

This means that she accepted it.

The people at the scene felt a flood of questions in their minds.

The Inatsume people hadn't quite grasped the situation yet; they didn't understand why the General was on trial, or why he was being tried in the first place.

They had no idea what the general had done or why he was suddenly being put on trial.

Recently, as things have gradually settled down in Inazuma Castle, people have begun to turn their attention back to the upper echelons and pay attention to all sorts of miscellaneous matters. However, they have found that at this crucial moment, the General has not appeared in public for a long time, nor has he issued any decrees. It's as if he has simply disappeared.

All government orders and arrangements were issued by the Shin-Inazuma government, and the signatures were either Jiang Ming or Coral Palace Xin Hai.

Some say that the general did not recognize the new regime that had developed from the resistance army and rebels, and therefore remained silent in protest; others say that the general voluntarily relinquished power; still others say that the news was deliberately blocked... In short, there were many different opinions, and rumors were rampant in Inazuma Castle.

When the public trial began, seeing the general sitting there, even though he wasn't in the main seat, was enough for people to believe that the case was solved and that the rumors were just that—rumors.

Now, people are finding that things are not so simple.

Chapter 234 Fufu: You're really going to do it?

At the public trial, the two sides were engaged in a fierce debate, exchanging sharp words.

Tens of thousands of spectators in the audience dared not breathe or blink, for fear of missing any detail.

The defendant, also the subject of the trial, is the god of Inazuma, the shogun! Everyone in Inazuma knows this, and it touches the hearts of everyone present.

As the debate unfolded and information was made public, people gradually learned the full story.

The general is accused of dereliction of duty.

Over a hundred years ago, out of good intentions to prevent wear and tear from endangering Inazuma, Ray created a self-aware but wear-resistant "eternal guardian"—the Doll General.

That is, the general that everyone here has known since birth.

After it was made, Lei Yingdian went straight to the Pure Land of One Heart and trusted the puppet general almost completely, and from then on basically did not concern himself with politics.

However, the results proved that the puppet general did not have the ability to govern the country. During his tenure as the general of Inazuma, he was repeatedly used, causing the people of Inazuma to suffer heavy losses and plunging Inazuma into crisis.

Although General Raiden was eliminated in the war, the responsible party, Raiden Film, has still not been dealt with accordingly.

The lawyers for the film attempted to argue that General Raiden possessed independent consciousness and was not merely a puppet, but regardless of whether the puppet general was viewed as a sentient being or as a tool, the issue of dereliction of duty remained unchanged.

If we consider the general as a person with independent consciousness or something else, and he is not someone else, then since he has not announced his abdication, what necessary connection is there between creating a puppet general and entering a pure land of mind where one does not concern oneself with worldly affairs?

Why can't we just supervise each other, or at the very least check regularly to see if anything goes wrong?

If it is regarded as a tool, then if something goes wrong, it is more of a problem for the user of the movie.

Although the intention was good, objectively speaking, this was indeed dereliction of duty, especially since it caused a major mess.

For over a century, the secret that Inazuma, and indeed the vast majority of people around the world, have never known has been revealed at this moment.

People then realized that what they had seen all these years was nothing more than a puppet created by the real general.

The reporters' flashes went off one after another, and the shutters were pressed repeatedly.

The gods of Inazuma, the judgment of the gods, that's the real headline news!

The final result of the trial was that he was not suitable to govern the country of Inazuma and was no longer suitable to serve as "General". Rai's supreme and absolute rule over Inazuma was rejected and stripped away.

From then on, Lei was no longer "General" and had no right to issue any orders to the Shin-Inazuma government.

This is the punishment imposed for dereliction of duty.

In addition, it still acknowledges his outstanding contributions to Inazuma over the past thousands of years and guarantees him the treatment and objective evaluation he deserves.

This was exactly what Jiang Ming had entrusted Yae no Kamiko to convey and discuss some time ago, and it was a result that both parties could accept.

Although everyone was surprised, Lei Movies actually accepted the offer without any bargaining.

"how did you do it?"

While Lei was still in the dock, Jiang Ming couldn't help but ask Yae no Kamiko.

"I can't really explain it, but as soon as I mentioned it, she agreed. Maybe she felt that going on trial would lessen her guilt?"

Yae no Miko shook her head, also unable to understand Lei's thoughts.

All she knew was that Ah Ying was deeply troubled by the various negative consequences she had caused over the years and felt terrible about it.

"Why don't you go ask her yourself?"

"..."

Jiang Ming shook his head, feeling that it wasn't quite right.

Since the result is already determined, there's no need to dwell on it anymore.

However, Lei Yingdian seemed to have overheard his conversation with Yae no Miko, and after returning to his seat, he took the initiative to explain.

"Anyway, no matter what, I am no longer the general of Inazuma. I don't need to care whether it is right or wrong, nor do I need to care about the form of my departure. If this can help you and help Inazuma regain its former vitality as soon as possible, then it is the compensation I can make."

During this period of time, she heard the divine child say many things and saw many things.

She admitted that she was really wrong.

She wasn't someone who couldn't admit her mistakes; it was just that as the goddess Inazuma and as the shogun, she couldn't afford to be wrong.

Anyway, an agreement has already been reached, and the general's position has been taken away. There's no need to care about the form of the trial. The result is the same, so changing the form can help and make up for some mistakes, which is a good thing.

Jiang Ming, Yae no Kamiko, and the others all nodded in unison, understanding.

At the public trial, the court had already announced the end of its proceedings, and staff were organizing documents in preparation for leaving.

These items will be sent directly to the museum after leaving the site; they are all important historical materials.

The people who came to watch started talking non-stop, as if they wanted to make up for all the things they had said when they were too scared to even breathe.

The scene was filled with a noisy discussion.

Foreigners mainly focus on the act of judging the gods itself, while the Inatsumi people mainly discuss whether this is right or wrong.

Many people believe that the merits and demerits should offset each other, and that the merits outweigh the demerits, so the matter should not be pursued. They think that Lei's movie should not be tried, or that the general should continue to lead Inazuma.

However, these are just words. After all, the quality of life has not only recovered to the pre-disaster level during this period, but has even slightly improved. This is a fact.

They believed in the general, and they also believed in the new regime.

As for these two matters... they prefer to let them handle things internally and just watch quietly.

However, both foreigners and Inazuma locals are discussing the "doll general" and the impact of Inazuma losing its divine leadership.
