Duke escorted Ferdinand and his alleged accomplices to the Department of Justice, where Bishop was in charge of the murder and arson. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The outcome of the case was particularly important for the new justice chief, Bishop, not only to prove that he was far more wise than his father, but also to launch a counter-offensive against members of the Senate who questioned their abilities.

Some time ago, he was still agonizing about his inaction, and now the arrival of Ferdinand's arson murder case happened to give him the opportunity to show his abilities. His excitement was palpable, and he spent the morning worrying about what he was wearing. When he saw Duke appear on the judgment seat, a satisfied smile immediately bloomed on his already tense face, and the pair of small mustaches that curved upwards trembled slightly on his lips with excitement.

He barely listened to Duke's account and began to try the case, perhaps he didn't care what happened in Muddy Water Alley or how many people died, he only cared about whether he could quickly end the murder and arson case, because he couldn't wait to run to his father and explain how he handled the case impartially and effectively reassured the people.

Before Duke arrived, he had arranged for his men to gather the refugees in Muddy Alley, and the cunning lobbyists had promised to pay for the settlement of Ferdinand and his gang if anyone came forward to accuse them.

Before the case officially began, there were already many refugees gathered at the door of the Judicial Bureau, including refugees from Mud Water Alley and people sent by the Judicial Bureau to fish in troubled waters. The refugees in Mushui Lane were a little at a loss, but the lobbyists were very clear about the purpose of the trip, and they shouted the slogan of punishing the rape and eliminating evil, and the atmosphere at the scene became very warm for a while.

Hearing the shouts outside the Justice Bureau, Bishop picked up the judgment hammer, and after three strikes, the entire courtroom fell silent.

Duke presented a piece of evidence, Bishop glanced at it, the so-called evidence was nothing more than a blackened pipe, and he smiled at the few people kneeling under the judgment table, and he ....... One thing, as long as people who know Bishop know very well, in the eyes of this person, there are only two kinds of people who enter the judicial bureau, one is the person who is useful to him, and the other is the person who is useless to him. Those who were useful to him could be acquitted if they committed a crime, and this was the art of power that his father taught him. If the person who walks into the Justice Bureau is useless to him, then he is a guilty person even if he is innocent.

According to his criterion, these ragged and dusty beggars in front of him must be useless, so they are guilty. Duke was supposed to leave as soon as he handed over the prisoners and the evidence, but he just couldn't get used to the actions of the descendants of the Senate, and he stood aside to see what was so good about the legendary chief who tried cases with pig brains.

Ferdinand watched the skinny Bishop from below the judgment table, and he wanted to use his usual knowledge of the officials to help him and the children under him clear his name.

Bishop was angry at such an unruly action, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Who is the person watching me down there?"

Ferdinand immediately replied, "A law-abiding citizen." ”

Bishop had already defined these kneelers as criminals in his heart, and what he wanted to see was a sincere confession of guilt and a series of begging actions to reduce the punishment. He was surprised to hear Ferdinand's sober answer now, but he also knew that it was too far-fetched to convict these people on the basis of that evidence and the noise outside the Judicial Bureau, and it was time for him to show his abilities.

He hesitated for a moment and continued to ask, "Since you are a law-abiding citizen, why were you taken to the Justice Bureau by Captain Duke?"

Ferdinand replied with a smile, "My esteemed Chief, the children and I were just watching a trick in the tavern for a while and eating some food. When the fire raged and burned down the tavern, we happened to be hiding in the basement, unaware of what was happening outside. ”

After hearing this defense, Bishop calmly picked up the blackened pipe in front of him, he had been dismissive of this evidence, but he suddenly realized that this pipe seemed to be able to pry open the mouth of the person in the audience.

"Tell me, who does this pipe belong to?" Bishop asked knowingly, Duke had told him about the pipe, and stressed that it might be the cause of the tavern fire, and that the blackened pipe was now the only evidence since the fire had almost destroyed everything.

The ownership of the pipe Ferdinand himself had long admitted, and these had become testimony to Duke, and there was no need to defend it, so Bishop's trickery may have been a show of wisdom to the others present, but it aroused Duke's disgust.

Ferdinand looked at the trembling child beside him and felt a little anxious, he really wanted to use magic to leave the Justice Bureau in the face of Bishop's obscene appearance, but in this way, the child under him would suffer.

Bishop slammed his pipe on the bench a few times, and the jury, which had been whispering, immediately fell silent.
