Chapter 49: Crime and Punishment

"I'm sorry...... Scobine. ”

Dong Scorpion looked at the Statue of Liberty standing on the Hudson River in front of him, and he was not surprised by what the woman behind him was about to say.

He didn't want to look at her face, and he projected all his pain onto the Statue of Liberty in front of him.

He vowed that after today, he would never set foot on Manhattan again. He had decided to leave New York and go to Los Angeles, which was far enough away in the northeast of the United States and Los Angeles on the west coast of the United States. Ironically, he once decided to take her to Los Angeles, to Hollywood. She is fond of Hollywood movies......

He reached out in front of him and slowly spread out his palm, on which lay the engagement ring she had just returned to him.

"You don't have to give me the ring back. Since...... Wilvan is not dead, then he is the heir of the family, and most of the money I used to buy the diamond ring was my father's inheritance. Now, he is Count Gomynik. ”

"Skorben, I'm sorry...... You'll find better girls' ...... All I can say is sorry. Also, about your uncle, I'm sorry......"

……

Dong Scorpion never realized that he would hate Werwin. After all, Verwin was his own brother-in-law, the biological son of his adoptive father, Count Gomynic. However, he still hated Werwin. A year and a half ago, everyone thought he was dead, but in fact he went to Togo, Africa. After spending the days when life was worse than death, he returned from hell. In addition, he brought back important information about the Shadow Cult, and recently successfully assisted the U.S. government in capturing the leader of the Shadow Cult, Agnes Gersvallen.

But...... He deliberately cheated to death, but did not tell Dong Scorpion and Isabella. Because he was infected with a form of voodoo at the time, the survival rate was extremely slim. So, he chose to fake his death, chose to go to Africa, and created the illusion that he died there with no bones left.

Because of his death, Dong Scorpion was able to get engaged to Isabella from a "spare tire". However, he eventually unraveled the voodoo and successfully returned. Overnight, all the happiness he had gained vanished. This made Dong Scorpion hate Vervin immensely. Of course, hate is hate, he also has a bottom line as a man, just like that, he will not betray the Gominic family and murder Verwin.

The biggest reason for him to end up acting in a fit of rage was ......

It's been more than three hours since Isabella left.

The surface of the Hudson River has gradually been dyed golden by the sinking sunset.

He will never forget that day.

He took out his phone and called Verwin.

The call was quickly connected.

"Welven...... Gomynik, why do you have to ......?"

"Are you talking about Isabella, or are you talking about your uncle?"

"Yes, although my uncle is a member of the Dark Shadow Sect, he has been passing information on you...... I have already said back then, as long as I pass on the information to you, not only can I adopt me, but I will also be able to absolve my uncle of all the sins he has done in the past......"

The Bible says that Jehovah is an abomination to those who justify the wicked and to define them as evil. Man's good deeds do not counteract man's evil. He must be judged and then atone. Of course, he has provided information over the years and can be sentenced at his discretion, so he should be able to avoid death. ”

"Vilvin Gomynik! You don't keep your word! ”

"I don't know anything about the agreement my father made with your uncle back then, and I wouldn't have made such a promise if I had replaced him. My devotion to God is above all else, and no one who sins will escape judgment. Just as a man who does good deeds must not be wronged. ”

……

"So...... That's why you're leaking his whereabouts to us? And then the reason for sniping Welvin? As a result, the matter was revealed, and you ended up in this prison? ”

Agnes looked at the damp and closed cage in front of her and listened to Dong Scorpion's narration. After all, it's been an hour since they woke up, but nothing has happened.

"My uncle committed suicide...... The day before the trial. He couldn't afford to go behind bars for an endless period of time, and he wasn't in good health because of diabetes. Thinking of the days to come, he finally chose death, sharpened his toothbrush and cut his wrists......"

Speaking of this, Dong Scorpion's face became extremely sad.

"The place where he committed suicide is in this Seculon prison?"

"Yes......"

"And then? You're going to unite our men and prepare to kill Welvin? ”

"Actually, I'm really stupid......," Dong Scorpion sighed, "Verwin expected that my uncle's men would come to me, and when I heard the news of my uncle's suicide, I was carried away by anger, and Isabella's affair made me finally lose my mind." Then I united with the people of the Dark Shadow Sect to reveal his whereabouts and snipe him...... I don't know how many people were watching me at that time...... I have been in the Gomynik family for so many years, and everyone around me, even a driver, is the eyeliner of Werwin, and no one thinks of me as a Gomynik. ”

"He's luring the snake out of the hole."

"And the adoption of me was a deal between my uncle and the earl, and my parents were completely unaware of it. I'm just a hostage. My uncle wanted the Gominiks to provide them with shelter, and they did their best. But in terms of results......"

"As a Jew, he refuses to do a loss-making business at all, and he is very shrewd in his calculations. On the one hand, you can get your psychic abilities, and on the other hand, you can get the intelligence of the Dark Shadow Sect. ”

Agnes said this, with a very disdainful expression.

"However, even I didn't know that your uncle was actually one of us......" Agnes gradually realized that the Dark Shadow Sect was no longer monolithic, and her control over the sect was not as strong as it was when her mother was there. So much so that she didn't know who were the sect's informants and spies.

"Even after the death of his parents, my uncle always sent information to the Gominik family. But in the end...... He's still going to jail......"

Vilvin Gomynik said...... The wicked must be judged, just as the good cannot be wronged? Agnes seemed to hear a big joke: "There is no funnier joke than this." ”

Then......

There was silence again.

Dong Scorpion looked at the locked cell, picked up the exam paper and looked at it.

In fact, Wilvin may be right. But...... Is the world really so black and white?

After a long time, Agnes broke the silence.

"That's ...... What the? ”

Dong Scorpion raised his head and looked ahead in a daze.

Then his eyes widened!

He saw a figure standing more than twenty meters away from the cell in front of him.

Because of the dim light, Dong Scorpion couldn't see clearly for a while, but at this time, ...... He was struck like lightning......

"Uncle...... Uncle? ”
