Chapter 54: Nanbo (4)
According to the annual orphanage appraisal files, after Nanbo returned to the orphanage, his personality became withdrawn, he had few friends, refused to be adopted again, and often went out and did not return, leaving him with injuries, and was defined as a problem child by the orphanage. In May 1288, the year after he returned to the orphanage, he was sentenced to three years for burglary. Because the object of theft is the office of the director of the Sanye Port Civil Affairs Institute, so the sunflower orphanage was canceled from the government support fund, and it was almost impossible to sustain it, and a year later, a mysterious donor appeared, and the welfare home was able to continue to exist. Zhang Chehan told the story of Nanbo's experience at a glance according to the order of the materials appearing on the circular screen.
"Hmph, they've all been ruined, don't you know how to repent, theft? Is he worthy of his adoptive mother? Even if he is still a child, this also shows that his character is problematic, and in the place where the prison is mixed, it is not certain that he is likely to join any organization, which just means that he is likely to be instructed to approach His Highness. Although Zhang Chehan had already said the next paragraph, Leng Lingye had been looking at the material about Ye Xue, because of her experience of losing her mother at a young age, she had more feelings for this kind, strong and great mother than others, so when she heard that Nan Bo didn't know self-love and was imprisoned for theft, she felt deeply worthless for Ye Xue's dedication, and the little sympathy for Nan Bo's tragic experience was gone, and all that was left was contempt and anger.
"Xiao Ye'er, don't worry, you look here carefully, what you said is very reasonable, and I agree with your point of view, prison is a mixed place, but I dare to guarantee that Nanbo only has a short 5-month prison experience, and no one should have a chance to absorb him, because the place where he is serving his sentence is Xihua State Prison." Zhang Chehan pointed to the 'prison prison' column of Nanbo's prison registration form and said.
"Westward State Prison? The location of the last attack of the Devourer-Ouranos? So how could he still be alive? Wu Yu also looked at the place Zhang Chehan pointed to, very surprised, in fact, not only Wu Yu, except for Zhang Chehan and Helena, everyone else was taken aback, the Devourer-Ouranos can be said to be the biggest obstacle or goal of their trip, so everyone present has conducted in-depth research on its information, Xihua Prison as the location of its last attack, it is a place where everyone pays attention, so it is very surprising for Nan Bo to be a survivor of the Xihua Prison attack.
"I don't know how he survived, and I also found out about this by accident, so I checked it repeatedly, he is indeed a prisoner in Xihua State Prison, but maybe he was lucky that day, and he happened to be arraigned or parole or something, so he escaped, and now the entire Xihua State Prison is destroyed, and these materials cannot be checked, but his sentence is 3 years, so strictly speaking, he is still a fugitive." Zhang Chehan explained.
"No, he must have been in the Westward State Prison that day, and he had been in contact with the Devourer-Uranos, otherwise how could he have provided so much information about it? Especially the last one, although the kid said that he guessed, but according to my calculations in the past few days, his conjecture is likely to be true, so I think he should have seen it with his own eyes, and I am still a little curious about his so-called theft. ”
Helena directly denied Zhang Chehan's conjecture, because in the intelligence research provided by Nanbo in the past few days, she was very sure that the other party had been in close contact with the Devourer, and she even had a very ridiculous idea, she felt that if Nanbo hadn't obtained the design drawings of Ouranos, then he might have entered the interior of Ouranos.
Helena also knows that her thoughts are ridiculous, there are those who can enter Ouranos and not die, and it is estimated that there are no more than 5 in this world, but she always has a blind sense of expectation for Nanbo, a quirky child, which is a bit like the blind obedience of fans to their favorite stars, which shows how much Helena attaches importance to Nanbo.
"I'm also curious, an orphan suddenly ran to the office of the director of the Civil Affairs Yuan to steal something?" Jiang Baiyuan raised his doubts about Helena's words.
"Your Highness asked this kid what he was stealing? In fact, I don't know, a theft case, but the file does not mention what the stolen goods are, I actually admire the level of these judges' handling of cases, the whole method is smooth and chaotic, the verdict is full of loopholes, I think, ah, this case is very likely to be greasy. Zhang Chehan has a natural fear of his little aunt, and he is also very aware of his aunt's love for Nanbo, as soon as he heard Helena's words, he thought about hurrying up and working hard to whitewash Nanbo.
"It's certain that there is a cat, but I am strange about another point, with this kid's ability, how can he be caught stealing something from a small dean's office?" Although Helena's tone seemed to be flat, everyone present had a feeling that Helena was showing off her child's sense of déjà vu.
"About this, the case file does not indicate how he was arrested, and I haven't investigated it carefully, but there is a suspicion that is still worth noting, the reason why Nanbo was convicted, and a key testimony came from the third witness, a little orphan girl of the same age as Nanbo, how could a little girl in an orphanage appear in the office of the director of the Civil Affairs Institute at night, and become a witness to Nanbo's theft, this is very suspicious, but it has been so long, at that time, because of the "Red Cross Pigeon Protection Law", the little orphan girl in the testimony was anonymous, It would be troublesome to look up, and I thought it wouldn't be a big deal, so I didn't check it out. However, Nanbo's imprisonment for theft should not be as simple as it seems, and it can be seen in many places that he has been manipulated, especially the place of detention, according to the record of this case, he should have gone to Sanye Port Juvenile Prison, but later he was inexplicably assigned to Xihua State Prison. ”
Zhang Chehan pointed to this and then pointed to that explanation, which was a little confusing compared to the previous narrative. But he can't be blamed for this, after all, the task of investigating Nan Bo is just a trivial matter in his opinion, and most of the reason for being able to find out so detailed like this is to please Helena, he would never have thought that a little person like Nan Bo would be so concerned by the prince and his aunt and ask such a detailed question, so it is inevitable that he will be underprepared.
"From this point of view, if there is really something wrong with this case, the decay of Xihua Prefecture has really reached an outrageous point, and a small civil affairs dean can easily get through all links from the police station to the judicial institution, not only can he easily charge others, but also arrange a place for the prisoner to serve his sentence, you must find out this matter clearly, if someone is really wronged, we must give him justice." Jiang Baiyuan said with some anger.
"Your Highness is right, Che Han, you must investigate this matter thoroughly and find out, understand." Helena echoed.
"If Your Highness and the Dean really want to find out about this matter, there is actually an easier way, just ask the person directly, isn't he in the interrogation room. For now, let Che Han finish his words, it is important to relieve Ling Ye's concerns first, after all, problems can only be solved one by one, things can only be done one by one, and everything still has to be prioritized. Seeing Zhang Chehan's embarrassed face and desperately trying to give himself a look, Wu Yu naturally understood, and immediately opened his mouth to temporarily avoid the thorough investigation of the case, and also vaguely reminded Jiang Baiyuan.
Retrial and reversal of cases has been a chore since ancient times, not to mention the difficulty of the work, and it is easy to offend people, and listening to Jiang Baiyuan's tone, there is a great desire to use this to rectify the various institutions of the Xihua Prefecture Public Procuratorate and Law, Zhang Chehan, who has always been casual, naturally does not want to take on this thankless drudgery, so he has no choice but to ask Wu Yu for help.
Wu Yu knows very well that the reason why he will help Zhang Chehan is also considering that the 'Prince's New Deal' has just been launched at this time, and it is not suitable to tear his face with the local forces in Xihua at this time, and in his opinion, even if he really wants to rectify Xihua Prefecture, Zhang Chehan is not a suitable candidate, after all, although Zhang Chehan has a lot of information, most of the sources cannot be put on the table, and he is likely to be beaten upside down by others with what he finds out.
