050: Power
Roshi's calm attitude surprised George, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he narrowed his eyes: "Interesting." ”
Perhaps because he had drunk some wine, his head looked a little unconscious at this time, and with a slightly condescending attitude, he said nakedly: "Is it something that has made you have a wrong mentality? Or has someone told you something in private? Do you really think that someone will uphold fairness and justice for you?"
The class hierarchy of feudal society is a strict problem, but under normal circumstances, the aristocracy will basically maintain that fig leaf, especially in recent years, with the advancement of policies in all aspects, the commoner class has also had some ideological sprouts, compared with the previous aristocracy is basically much more low-key, and there are not many examples of him declaring in public that the class is above justice.
However, most of the students present who heard the remarks did not show anger, except for a few sympathetic glances, and more of them had an attitude of watching the show.
Maybe... Is it because they are not at the bottom of class society?
Roshi thought to himself, and then turned his gaze to George, who was staring at him, and at his signal, the two students had approached Roshi, and they were about to make a move.
"Stop!" But just then, a voice came from behind.
Dean Tony, who had a gray beard on his chin, walked over from not far away, and Christina hurried to meet him as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.
"Dean, we..."
Tony nodded at her, giving her a look of reassurance, "I know what's going on, Miss Christina." ”
After a pause, he glanced at the students around him in disappointment, and even sighed softly, then turned his head to him, and said to the two students in front of Roshi, "Do you know what you are going to do again?"
The fact that the deans of all the newly formed houses were appointed by Allen is enough to reflect Tony's status.
The two students who were watching rolled their throats unconsciously, their eyes revealing a little fear, and they didn't dare to take any further steps for a while.
This frightened look made the disappointment on Tony's face even stronger, he shook his head, turned to the other students next to him and said, "Okay, that's all for the farce, today is an important day for the celebration, I don't think we want to see anything unpleasant happen." ”
From beginning to end, Tony never took a look at George, and this attitude made George very unhappy, and his face turned cold when he saw that the people around him seemed to really want to listen to Tony's dispersal.
"Dean Tony, what do you mean by that?" his voice sounded a little gloomy.
Tony glanced at him lightly, and said coldly with a tough attitude: "George, put away your set, this is the academy, there are no nobles and commoners!"
George's face was pale, he didn't expect that Tony would give him such a faceless appearance, and he didn't leave him a single step in front of the public.
It's just that in terms of status, he is just the son of a viscount's family, and he is not at all the same size as Tony, even his father.
Just as he was in a dilemma, a voice came from a distance, and George's originally blue face when he heard this voice suddenly soothed.
"Dean Tony!"
A loud voice came from a distance, and Roshi noticed that a middle-aged man in a reddish-brown ornate dress walked over, followed by several other elderly nobles, followed by several guards, and several nobles who were in the upper left corner before.
When he came over, he nodded slightly at George, then turned his head and smiled at Tonypi, "I just heard that there was a theft here, is that so?"
George knew very well what he had to do at this time, so he immediately rushed in and saluted respectfully: "Yes, Lord West." ”
Although this West was only a baron, he was the spokesman of the lord of another city, and more importantly, he was a member of their noble faction.
George, who knew that he had seized the turn of the matter, pointed at Roshi, and said with anger on his face: "This damn thief, he stole the gift I prepared for Miss Felia, I asked for a search of him, but he was stopped by the dean, I don't understand why the noble academy wants to shelter a thief?"
West was very satisfied with George's performance, and then put on a surprised face, and said in surprise: "How can this happen?"
After a pause, he said righteously: "We have no reason to let criminals go unpunished, this is a defilement of the divine law, your name is George, right? I support you in defending your own rights and interests." ”
George had a big smile on his face again, and he hurried to his companion with a look.
It's a pity that the students who followed him at this time also knew that things were a bit big, and no matter which side they stood on, there would definitely be no good fruit to eat, so they lowered their heads and pretended not to see it one by one, which made George's face stiffen.
"The law should be defended by all of us. Seeing this, West calmly resolved George's embarrassment, raised his hand and nodded to the two guards behind him: "You two, go and give our George friends a little help, everyone wants to figure things out as soon as possible..."
"Enough!"
But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a high-pitched voice, and Tony stood up angrily, blew his beard and glared at Vest and scolded: "You dirty and despicable shameless villains, you are still playing this disgusting trick, don't you know what is going on?"
It is not a question of a librarian and a cadet, but of a commoner and a nobleman.
It's a pity that the development of society has not yet reached the step that Tony expects, and more than ten years is too short for the whole society.
West's voice only made more students have some understanding, and West didn't seem to hear it at all, and the guards who walked towards Roshi still didn't stop.
Tony was in a hurry, and could only suppress his final hope on the city lord, he hurriedly rushed to Count Barak for help: "Lord Earl, have you forgotten how Lord Allen is..."
However, Tony was soon disappointed, and Count Barak only hesitated, but finally avoided his gaze and stood firmly with Vest next to him, indicating his position.
West glanced at Tony indifferently, and told the old man very bluntly: "Mr. Dean, I'm afraid you have misunderstood, the kingdom is not someone's kingdom, but..."
As soon as the words came out, his voice stopped abruptly, and then his pupils shrank suddenly, not only him, but also the surrounding crowd's eyes widened...
