"I understand."

"No, you don't understand." Lingling corrected her seriously, "This forbidden technique wasn't released by Xu Fang, but by someone else. Someone wanted to use the Holy City to kill Xu Fang, and Hecasa was just a tool!"

"Ok?"

Shao Zheng frowned.

Although Lingling's words were all guesses, they were very logical, and even if they were lies, they were lies that were almost true.

On the day of trial, it would be good to bring it up and argue our case.

"Furthermore, I suspect that this person is lurking around Hecasa, or at least a member of the Casa clan, otherwise he would not be able to get close to the dock battlefield."

Lingling said, "Mu Bai's older sister, Yan Qiu, happens to be in the Casa clan and was once Hecasa's maid. I plan to get in touch with her and conduct a secret investigation."

“I understand. I will try to buy some time during the trial. Take care of yourself,” Shao Zheng said.

Tonight, many people are destined to have trouble falling asleep.

For example, Lingling and her group.

The area west of the Holy Judgment Court is also a unique wooden villa complex, next to a large snow mountain hot spring, surrounded by tall ice bamboo, creating a very comfortable and relaxing place.

This is where the Casa clan is stationed.

Despite the young duke's death, it didn't stop the elders from enjoying life. Their daytime rants against Xu Fang at the Holy Court and their evening indulgences in the exquisite services of massage girls didn't conflict.

When~~~

When~~~~~

As the bell tolled, a petite figure hurried outside, glancing back warily every now and then.

"Sister Yanqiu!" Mu Bai quickly went to greet her.

"Xiao Bai!" Yan Qiu hurriedly came over and grabbed his hand.

Chapter 561 This kid has pretty good interpersonal relationships.

The holy city is located at the western starting point of the Alps, straddling a temperate continental climate and a subtropical climate.

It is summer now, with average daytime temperatures between 20°C and 25°C, while nighttime temperatures drop to around 10°C.

In plain language: It's warm during the day and cool at night.

This is also the best time for travelers to visit.

"What's going on? Why can't we come in?" a tourist carrying a full set of climbing gear complained.

"The holy city has already issued a notice to close the western Alps for a month. You can check it on the official website."

The staff members' faces were full of the dejection and resentment typical of working people who work overtime.

He has said the same thing countless times.

"On what grounds? He can just shut it down like that?"

"Who in their right mind would go and visit the magic website?"

"Yeah, that's way too domineering!"

"The Holy City rules over heaven and earth, but what right does it have to regulate my tourism and mountain climbing?"

"Shit! I only get five days of paid leave a year! I even switched shifts to get here, and now you're telling me I can't come in?"

The tourists were extremely agitated, almost wanting to rush past the staff.

The Holy City is a sacred place in the hearts of magicians, but it is too far away in the eyes of ordinary people, so it loses its aura.

"Hey guys, it's Qiangzi here. Today, Qiangzi's size 44 feet have finally set foot on the soil of the Alps!"

In the crowd, a burly man with a thick, wrinkled back of his head held up a selfie stick and shouted.

"To be honest, there are so many people in this magical holy land! Qiangzi's heart is pounding, and he needs gifts and hearts from his buddies!"

"Hey, what are you doing...why are there so many people?"

Qiangzi stared blankly at the road, which was packed like a sausage: "Brothers, we can't get in here either."

The chat was flooded with comments like "noob," "Qiangzi is done for," and "I'm leaving, I'm switching to another stream."

Qiangzi yelled, "Damn this turkey-flavored rice cracker! What the hell does 'Qiangzi died before even stepping inside' mean? Bring the props!"

He took off his backpack and pulled out a DVD-sized box: "Ta-da! Made in Jinlin City, a limited edition civilian model by Worker Bee!"

"666!"

"Qiangzi is still rich."

"Pass it down: Qiangzi is no longer able to work, so they're using props to make up the numbers."

"The head steward of Tsinghua University gave it a thumbs up."

Qiangzi placed the box on the ground, connected the phone, and then took out a battery-like object and inserted it into the groove.

hum~~~

Starting from the groove, pale blue lines spread out, accompanied by a slight sizzling sound, and vortexes rose up around the black box.

The live stream's perspective also changed to a bird's-eye view.

"My goodness, why are there so many people?"

"Whose wedding or funeral is this big? Can Qiangzi get in and get a share of the feast with just 200 yuan?"

"Holy crap, Qiangzi, look over there! I've seen that guy on the news, I think his name is Shao something!"

Qiangzi was piloting the civilian version of the worker bee towards that direction when suddenly the air vibrated, as if someone had slammed their palms together.

His civilian-grade worker bee was directly downgraded, squeezed into a flat iron disc.

"Who is this?"

Qiangzi Hongwen.

He just bought worker bees!

"This is a limited edition, numbered aircraft produced in Jinlin City. It is 0.8 meters long, 0.4 meters wide, and 0.2 meters high. It is designed for compact and efficient aerial operations. It combines a magical energy core with a micro-magical rune engine and uses an inertial navigation system and a Beidou magic enhancement module to ensure accurate positioning and navigation in any magical interference environment. It is an expensive artifact!"

Qiangzi's wailing was heartbreaking and brought tears to the eyes of all who heard it.

In the distance, a man dressed as a judge sneered, "Stupid and noisy Muggle."

"Alright, judging from his voice, he's probably Chinese. It's best to avoid trouble right now," his companion advised.

Today's court hearing saw a huge crowd from China showing up, clearly with ill intentions. They might inadvertently become the chicken used as a warning to others!

······

Holy City, Court of Judgment.

Having just walked through the boundless white snow, the golden hues that greeted us seemed particularly dazzling and brilliant.

A huge crystal chandelier hangs in the center of the ceiling, emitting a soft and warm light that illuminates the entire space.

Meanwhile, the stained glass windows also let in colorful light, which intertwined with the light of the crystal chandelier, creating a dreamy and sacred atmosphere.

The jurors, all dressed in matching black outfits, took their seats. Upon seeing the lineup before them, many of them felt their eyelids tremble.

Sitting at the front were Asian councilor Zu Huanyao, old priest Song Qiming, secretary to councilor Shao Zheng, president of the Clock Tower Magic Association Han Ji, and chief of the Forbidden City Magic Association Pang Lai.

In addition, there were several monks who looked like soldiers, sitting upright with sharp eyes.

"With this lineup, are they going to challenge the Holy City?"

"Hard to say."

"Xu Fang is only in his early twenties, yet he can get China to put on such a grand show... It's enviable."

As the crowd continued to whisper among themselves, the door opened again, and a young woman dressed in a formal dress entered.

"This is Grand Duchess Irene!"

"The head of the Victoria family is said to have improved the dragon training methods after cooperating with Jinlin City, and made a fortune."

"Her interests are now tied to Xu Fang's; she can't leave even if she wants to."

Eileen nodded to the crowd and sat down in the audience.

"Holy crap, look there! Saint Asha's Azalea from the Parthenon! Saint Ye Xinxia! Saint Yi Zhisha!"

These three have a bigger entourage than Eileen.

As if a nest of saints had been disturbed, all three saints came out in full force, shocking everyone.

Besides the three of them, Jin Yaodou, the official Norman, also arrived, his cold face radiating an aura that kept strangers at bay.

Because of his overwhelming presence, the elders of the Faith Temple who followed behind him seemed almost invisible in comparison.

"Ye Xinxia, ​​I remember you were supposed to be preaching in Croatia, what are you doing here?"

"Xu Fang is my friend. But Asha Ruya, weren't you supposed to be in seclusion for three months? Is your seclusion over?"

"There's no other way. Reliable partners are so rare in this world. By the way, Yizhisha, haven't you always supported Su Lu? Why are you joining in now?"

They appear amicable on the surface, but in reality, they secretly wish they could smash the other person into a pulp.

Chika Mochizuki from Japan, Jesse from the Temple of Liberty, and Fenna from Egypt all arrived, making the originally spacious courtroom feel exceptionally cramped.

"This kid is quite popular."

An elderly woman in the audience said.

"Of course! She's a global superstar, a celebrity among mages!" the young girl next to the old lady said proudly.

Lu Yi glanced at her carefree granddaughter and shook her head speechlessly.

No matter how succulent or beautiful the braised pork is, it's useless if you can't eat it.

"By the way, your cousin's name is... his name is..."

Chen Ying reminded her, "Zhao Manyan."

"Right, why didn't Zhao Manyan come? And that Mo Fan, who's like a scoundrel, isn't he on good terms with Xu Fang?"

"I don't know either." Chen Ying was also puzzled. Since the court was not in session at the moment, she simply took out her phone and called Zhao Manyan.
