Chapter 42: Misunderstanding
Li Zhenbang nodded at Lan Leshui, stretched out his hands and patted him lightly to check, and did not take off his clothes.
"I'm done, and he shouldn't have anything else on him other than this one. Warren, if you don't believe me, you can check it out for yourself. ”
Warren looked at Lan Leshui, then at Li Zhenbang, and said, "I believe you, I don't need to check again." ”
"Thank you for your trust!" Li Zhenbang looked at Warren and said solemnly.
At this moment, a discordant voice rang out.
"No, I'll have to check, poor boy, take off my clothes. ”
It was Nick who spoke, and Nick was very dissatisfied when he saw that Li Zhenbang was just slapping and patting at will. Li Zhenbang and Lan Leshui made him lose face in front of the nobles, and he had to clean them up.
Lan Leshui looked at Nick angrily, but there was nothing he could do, Nick was one of the witnesses after all. Lan Leshui reached out angrily and was about to unbutton his shirt, but was stopped by Warren.
"Since I choose to believe in Li Zhenbang, I naturally believe in his results, so you don't have to take it off. ”
Lan Leshui didn't expect that Warren would help him speak at this moment. Looking at Warren's eyes was a little weird, there was gratitude, joy, and a hint of resentment.
"No, you have to take off your clothes and check it, I'm one of the Witnesses, it's unconvincing, you say?" Nick said, trying to pull a few Witnesses with him, but the others didn't seem to see him, including the civilian Witness.
"In that case, then we will vote, and the minority obeys the majority. There are 6 of us, if the votes are equal, then Lan Leshui, you have to take off your clothes and check for everyone, do you have any opinions?" Li Zhenbang stood up and said in a timely manner.
Lan Leshui looked at Li Zhenbang gratefully, and nodded calmly, he was ready to strip naked when Li Zhenbang checked just now, but he didn't expect Li Zhenbang to just pat his body through his clothes to check, in order to prove his innocence, the big deal is that he really took it off.
"If you agree to Lan Leshui to strip naked for inspection, please raise your hand. Li Zhenbang said calmly.
Nick was the only one who raised his hand excitedly, and seeing that no one around him raised his hand, Nick shouted excitedly: "All up! He's a thief, aren't you afraid of being stolen by these poor people in the future?"
The other two nobles looked at each other with some hesitation in their eyes, after all, they would also hire someone to clean up, and they didn't want to run into a thief, so only one of them raised his hand in the end.
"Four to two, Lan Leshui doesn't need to take off his clothes. Li Zhenbang looked at Nick as if he was looking at a clown jumping off the beam.
"No, you haven't asked the person who agreed to let him not take off his clothes raise their hand!" Nick snarled in a final effort.
"Okay! As you wish! The person who agreed with Lan Leshui not to take off his clothes raised his hand. Li Zhenbang was the first to raise it, and the civilian witness did not hesitate to raise his hand in Nick's threatening eyes.
"Look, it's 2 to 2, it's a draw, you poor boy has to get off. Hurry up!" Nick said smugly.
"Nick, although I didn't raise my hand, but I said it before, I agreed that he would not take off his clothes, so in the end, it was 3 to 2, and one person abstained. Warren looked at Nick and said coldly.
Originally, he looked down on people like Nick very much, and as the chairman of the civilian committee, he betrayed the interests of civilians to achieve his own goals.
This kind of person who may betray anyone for his own interests at any time, even if he becomes a nobleman, will not be able to truly gain a foothold among the nobles, let alone a commoner. And Nick was also very unhappy when he bumped into himself just now, and seeing the sluggish expression on Nick's face at this moment, he couldn't tell the joy in his heart.
"Thank you, Young Master Warren!" Lan Leshui bowed lightly at Warren and said sincerely.
"You're so polite, that's why this happened, and I'm now beginning to believe that you're not a thief. Warren took a step back to the right and did not accept Lan Leshui's bow, he already had some regrets in his heart, how could he be embarrassed to accept this gift!
"Warren, since Lan Leshui doesn't have it on him, if it's convenient, can you open your cabinet and let us check it out. I'm not doubting what you're saying, it's possible for everyone to forget something unimportant that they've done casually, and I'm going to rule it out. If there is no one in the room, and there is no one in the cupboard, then I will compensate for this one gold coin. Li Zhenbang looked at Warren and said solemnly.
Warren hesitated, but nodded in agreement. Maybe it was out of apology to Lan Leshui, or maybe it was out of understanding of Li Zhenbang, he couldn't tell why he agreed.
Li Zhenbang was about to open the bedside table to check when there was a sudden commotion at the door.
"What are you doing at the door of my dorm? Is something wrong? Get out of the way, I'll go in and see. ”
Everyone in the house turned around and saw a little boy with fair skin and a small head walking in.
The little boy was stunned when he saw the people in the room, "Warren, who are they? Are you friends? Why are there so many people at the door?"
"Jack...... I don't ...... the sachet on the bedside table," Warren froze before he could finish his sentence, because Jack had his own sachet on his waist.
"Jack, is it my sachet on your waist?"
"I saw it on your bedside table, it's a limited edition! I took it out for a walk, and a lot of beautiful women were attracted to it! What kind of expression do you have?" Jack shuddered at the sight of Warren's murderous eyes.
"You can't be so stingy, can you?"
"Why don't you say hello to me?" Warren growled.
"You weren't in the house at the time, and I didn't find you, what I thought was that I couldn't lose it for a while, and I'll tell you when you come back, why are you so scary?
Jack's voice grew quieter and quieter, as he realized that it wasn't just Warren looking at him with a look of murder, everyone in the room looking at him with a look of murder. Especially the little boy in the patch and Nick, the president of the civilian council, had a look in his eyes that wanted to crush him.
"What are you doing? Don't come here! Don't be impulsive! Impulsiveness is the devil...... Ahhhhhh
