2nd Floor, Palace of Parliament, Arbitration Hall.

The function of this arbitration chamber was simple, not to judge the most vicious, but to adjudicate officials, or rather, to adjudicate the upper echelons of the empire.

The arbitration hall, which had not been used for a month, was still tidy, the thick curtains were tightened, the crystal lamps in the center of the canopy were lit, and a well-dressed official was talking to each other, and the arbitration had not yet begun.

At the innermost end of the chamber was a tall judge's table, on which were placed a few documents, the back of the judge's desk was empty, and on the back of the chair, there was a pattern of two crossed swords.

In front of the judge's table was an open space, the smooth stone floor was spotless, and in the center of the arbitration hall was a special wooden chair surrounded by iron bars, which was obviously the 'special seat' of the adjudicator, and no one wanted to sit here.

The 'grand seats' are opposite the judges' tables, and on the left and right sides of the grand seats, near the walls, there are two rows of wooden tables, and at this time the wooden tables are already full, and most of the people sitting here are not young, conservatively estimated to be over 50 years old, they look serious, and some of them close their eyes and take a nap.

Behind the 'Grand Seat', there were several rows of seats, which were almost full, Mrs. Nancy was sitting in the first row, she was a little distracted, Gus, Hank, and Reinhardt were sitting in the back row, and Old Hank was muttering something at this time, and his eyes looked at the people sitting behind the wooden table from time to time, these were all councilors, except for the monarch, they were the supreme rulers of the empire when they were assembled, provided that they dared to assemble.

The door to the judge's table was pushed open, and everyone in the room rose to their feet, their right hands pressed to their chests as they bowed.

Monarch Harold was not fast, and he sat behind the judge's table and took a sip from the teacup on it.

"Sit down."

As soon as Harold finished speaking, the parliamentarians and the observers sat down one after another, the expressions of the parliamentarians were quite natural, and most of the observers were a little nervous, and Harold just sat there, giving them a lot of pressure.

Gus took the opportunity to look at Harold, who knew that Harold's gaze happened to be looking this way, Gus immediately tensed his body, he had never been so nervous as he was in fighting with the ghost.

"Nerd, bow your head."

Bonnie's voice came, and she poked Gus on the waist with her fingers, who Gus was, he was the flat-headed brother of the Awakened, so he grinned at Harold and wanted to stay as long as he wanted, and finally nodded his head.

Harold looked at Gus with interest, he didn't care about Gus's rude behavior, he just raised his hand to pick up the papers on the table, when he saw Gus with scars on his face, in terms of personal feelings, Harold felt uncomfortable, this young man of the same age as his eldest son, because of the battle with the ghost, has become less human.

But judging from the monarch's point of view, a person like Gus must exist, and after use, it must be properly disposed of, keep the other party away from densely populated areas, and if the risk is too high, dispose of it directly and secretly.

"Ahem."

Harold cleared his throat, and the whispers in the arbitration hall disappeared, and the important people in today's arbitration were Siwei, Monarch Harold, Councillor Leopor, Councillor Jones, and Deputy Legion Captain Kukulin White Night.

There are 12 councillors of the Empire, and interestingly, the 12 councillors are divided into two factions, one side is the radical faction, led by Councillor Leopold, who advocates continuing to expand the territory, marching towards the surrounding oceans, fully exploring the world, and then solving the problem of ghosts, at least now ghosts are hunted by humans and can't raise their heads, of course, this requires a terrible fee, involving increased taxation and other issues.

On the other hand, there are conservatives, represented by Congressman Jones, who advocate developing the occupied land first, and then exploring outwards after solving the problem of ghosts, so as to prevent other dangerous intelligent creatures from popping up on the continent beyond the ocean.

In fact, the beliefs of radicals and conservatives are completely used for fun, and even Congressman Jones himself has joked that he is not ashamed of how Leopold's gloomy guy could come up with such lame beliefs.

The opposition between the radicals and the conservatives is to express the attitude that they will never unite as a gesture of goodwill to Monarch Harold, that you are the king, the real ruler of the empire.

No member of parliament is as unbearable as the outside world has rumored, and being able to climb to this position has said a lot.

"The reason why you are here today must be clear, and you should share your views on the murder of Joshua Eddy by Kukulin White Night."

Harold's words were actually spoken to Leo Potter and Jones, two councillors, and the two of them could represent all councillors.

"Since this is the case, it is rude, and your subordinates have something to say."

Congressman Jones stood up, he was nearly sixty years old, slightly chubby, and his oily face was kind and sentimental, and he took a deep breath, as if to stabilize his emotions.

"What kind of man Sir Eddie was during his lifetime, I am sure everyone here has heard of it, he built 17 hospitals and 35 orphanages with his personal assets, such a person...... Such a person ......"

Congressman Jones said that the circles under his eyes were red, and it could be seen that he was really sad.

"Such a good person was brutally killed at home!"

Congressman Jones's voice suddenly rose to a higher level, and the slightly weeping burst was even more infectious, and a girl in a black dress in the audience clenched her little fists and muttered, 'What a bastard.' ’

"Congressman Jones, stabilize your emotions."

Harold's face remained the same, if he said that he was the most annoying councilor, it was none other than this, every time he touched the interests of the other party, a person who was almost seventy years old, crying was called a sad heart.

"Your Majesty, I'm out of shape."

Councillor Jones wiped away his tears, adjusted his breathing again, and said righteously: "Sir Eddie was a decent man in his lifetime, he was killed so savagely, I must help him get justice!" “

This is the end of Congressman Jones's speech, and it is interesting that those observers who do not know much about the situation have greatly reduced their impression of Su Xiao, do not underestimate these observers, they are either related to this matter, or the officials who must be involved in this matter, of course, Sir Eddie's family is indispensable.

What's even more interesting is that Councilor Jones never directly mentioned Su Xiao, obviously, this is also an old yin beep, not only to establish his own image of affection and righteousness, but also not to completely offend Su Xiao.

The cry came from the auditorium, and you didn't have to think about it to know that it was Sir Eddie's family, and they had only one task today, to cry, to cry until they could live, and these people were all like Spiegel in their hearts, and once those secrets were exposed, they would all die.

"Silence."

Harold's voice was not high, but the arbitration hall immediately fell silent, and his eyes looked at Councillor Leopold.

Leopold raised his head slightly, and his hooked nose made him look a little old-fashioned and gloomy.

"Your Majesty, I propose that Deputy Commander Kukulin be acquitted."

With that, Councillor Leopold sat back in his seat, and Councillor Jones, who was more than ten meters away from him, was looking at him in surprise.

There was an uproar in the auditorium, and Bonnie in the last row stared at Councillor Leopold, and she keenly discovered one thing, that is, Councillor Leopold wanted to kill Su Xiao.
