Chapter 429 The power of example is infinite, and when a bad example appears, it spreads the power of evil
The first trial was for Sebis to blaspheme the royal family and the emperor, and a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, with slightly dark skin and some rough skin, was brought up. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info She has brown hair, her blood is not very pure, and she has some freckles on the bridge of her nose, which makes her look a little cute and cute. There was a sadness and a hint of despair in her blue eyes, and she was trying her best to control her emotions, pursing her lips tightly, and her eyes were a little evasive.
She wore a long pale blue dress, which to be honest didn't look so good with her skin tone, and maybe it was the only one she could handle. There are no jewelry on her body, and at a glance, you can vaguely guess her identity through her temperament.
The daughter of an ordinary commoner can be seen all over the world.
Vito's eyes lingered on the girl's face for a moment before he moved away, he lowered his head and glanced at the file, asking, "May I ask your name?"
The girl was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses, and she nodded, "Yes, sir." My name is Riley, my lord. β
"Riley......", Vito nodded, the name didn't have any special meaning, it wasn't a Desi pronunciation, it was a lingua franca, just like many civilians. When they choose a name for their child, they often need to pay attention to only one point, that is, they have a more obvious ability to recognize.
"Riley, can you tell me what happened to you on the night of May 19, 373rd in the Empire?", Vito put down the file and leaned back in his chair slightly, looking at Riley.
Riley's face turned slightly pale, and she bit her lip, her teeth digging deep into the full flap of her lips. After a while, an abnormal bright red appeared on her face, and then she whispered, "On the way home after I finished my work, I met Mr. Sebis, and he ...... He pulled me closer to the back of the alley on the side of the road and ...... Rape me!"
"Did you resist?"
Riley nodded vigorously, "I resisted, but my strength was not as strong as his, and he also had a stick, and he kept hitting me with the stick to prevent me from resisting." β
"Why don't you call for help?"
"I ...... I called for help, some people came, but when they saw Sebis and left silently, I knew that there was no point in calling for help, so I gave up calling for help. β
There was an uproar in the courtroom, and it was difficult for the civilians in the imperial capital to imagine what kind of life the commoners of those rural fiefdoms lived. Legally, the lord has the power of life and death over all the people in the fiefdom, which is legally speaking.
In fact, there is no shortage of tyrant-like lords, these people, relying on their titles and privileges, never regard the commoners of the territory as human beings, but only as some kind of creature, something.
The most famous and brutal lord in history was called Dacula, who once practiced a hunting game in his territory. All civilians are prey, and he is the only hunter.
His mission is to kill all the prey, and the task of the prey is to find a way to survive as much as possible and escape from the city.
The inhuman lord of Dracula brutally murdered more than 7,000 civilians in his short life, eventually being killed in his bed by angry civilians.
The commoners in the territory often choose to remain silent when faced with the harm of the nobles, because they still have to live in this land after all. This also caused many nobles to act unscrupulously.
However, most of the lords showed a good side when it came to territorial issues, because they also knew very well that once they went too far, it meant losing support. Civilians will eventually run out, and the fiefdom will be reduced to death.
Faced with Riley's encounter, the civilians of the imperial capital felt very angry and frightened, and kept cursing and condemning Sebis until Vito picked up the mallet and smashed the wooden platform, "Silence." β
Vito picked up the file and threw it on the table, pointing at Riley, "I have a confession here, it's your confession, you said that in the process of your rape, the criminal called out some sensitive names, right?"
"It's ......", the tears in Riley's eyes were already swirling, as a girl who had not yet been married, she had not only experienced a *** that made her desperate, but now she had to tear open the wound that had just healed little by little in public, her tense nerves had the illusion that they were about to break, and her teeth made a rattling sound. She folded her arms around her shoulders and sobbed quietly, but it was clear that Vito had no intention of letting her go.
"Then please name the offender and the process. β
Riley lowered her head, tears kept dripping, which made people feel distressed, and she was particularly helpless at this time. But she also knows very well that if she wants a fair trial, she must persevere. She wiped away her tears and said, "I didn't realize who he was calling with his stick while beating me with his stick, and I didn't realize who he was calling until he said, 'Cousin, promise me, do you really think you are His Majesty the Emperor?' He also called out Goliath, and I wasn't sure who that name was, because I hadn't heard it. β
"So did he beat you with a stick while he was shouting these names?"
When I said yes, he stopped. β
"What did he do in the process?"
Riley suddenly raised her head, tears streaming down her face, and her eyes suddenly bloomed with a monstrous hatred, staring straight at Vito, "He raped me." β
Vito looked away, raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and looked at the file, but his mouth did not relax in the slightest, "How did he rape you? What about the details? You must know that you are not married, and you may not know much about the word rape, in order to avoid some ridiculous errors in the process of the trial, I need you to describe the details in detail." β
Ganvin frowned, Vito was a little excessive, but he didn't stop Vito's request. After all, the final result of this trial has long been predestined, that is, Vito personally pronounced the death sentence of one of his once favorite sons, and he will also be present at the scene to supervise the execution of the execution. This is definitely not as simple and easy as he appears, so these little caustic questions and demands, Gan Wen regarded as a kind of vent for his upcoming results.
Jasmine looked at the nobles sitting in the front row with pleading eyes, but no one was moved in the slightest, and no one stood up to say anything for her. The eyes of those nobles were cold and terrible, and when she looked at her, she could clearly feel that these people looked down on her, and they didn't even want to say a word for her. And the civilians who sat in the back, some even showed expectant smiles. She despaired, as she had once been, and fell into the abyss of despair once again. Her eyes originally had some color, but at this moment, they became dim, and the whole person became numb and blank as if she had lost her soul.
She laughed inexplicably, combed her hair, sat down again, and looked up at Vito, "Your Excellency, since you want to know, then I'll tell you." He ripped my skirt open, ripped off my panties, then covered my nasty palms over my lower body, tore at my plot (hair) hard, and kicked him twice. He called me, 'Son-in-law, say yes, or I'll kill you today,' and he called out the nameβ'Pars!'"
I said yes, and sure enough, he gave up and continued to beat me, and he crouched down and ...... with his fingers Inserted into my body, I cried out loud as I was tormented by tearing pain and fear. He took off his pants and shook the filthy thing out, and he said 'Pals, come here, lick here'. I couldn't stand the smell and hesitated, and he hit me on the shoulder with a stick, and it still throbs on rainy days. β
"I did as he said, and he said, 'Pars, you slut, how dare you show me ...... face,' and he slapped me in the face with his hand and pinched my chest so hard that I couldn't breathe. I didn't know how to greet him, and when he hit me so hard that he didn't feel the need to continue, he pushed me to the ground and punched me. I struggled a few times, and he grabbed the stick and hit me the head and shoulder, and I was so scared and in pain that I didn't dare to resist anymore. He parted my legs and shoved his filthy, ugly, foul-smelling thing into my body, right underneath, and wanted me to take off my skirt and show you?
Vito's face was already extremely ugly, but at this time, it was even more uncomfortable as if he had eaten a mouthful of, and his eyebrows suddenly rose, "I asked you to say this not to insult you, but to make the truth public...... β
Riley sneered expressionlessly, her indifferent eyes looking not only at Vito, but at all the people in the entire courtroom. Her shoulders shook, her pale blue dress slowly slipped down, and people let out suppressed exclamations. Even though two months have passed since the incident, the traces left after such a ** are still clearly visible. The girl had four scars on her chest that were more than an inch long, and one of the ruddens on one side was also cut.
Her left shoulder was a little lower than the right, obviously a little twisted unusually, and there were a few bruises on her arms that hadn't yet spread. There was also a wound on the girl's stomach, which seemed to have been left by a blunt object, and the wound was wide and irregular, as ugly as a deformed something.
"Okay, skip this paragraph, put on your clothes. Vito knocked the wooden chase, and immediately a guard pulled up the skirt, but Riley did not struggle.
She just stood there, looking at Vito.
"Then the man named Sebis lay on the ground, and he took a knife and stabbed me in the chest, so that I could ride on him. He called me Gloria, and he said, 'Gloria's singing voice is very good, I like Gloria's voice, can you sing?', I didn't know how to answer, he told me to sing and move at the same time. The wound in my chest was the one he stabbed at that time. There was a time when I was in so much pain that he might feel the pain and cut off my ....... If he thinks I'm not singing well enough, or if I'm moving slowly, he'll stab me. β
"I don't know how long it was, I felt that time was unbearably slow, and when he finished pushing me away, I was actually thanking him, I thanked him for finally ending, and I finally didn't have to suffer. β
"That's the whole process, Honorable Justice, that's how he raped me, the guy called Sebis. A sarcastic sneer suddenly appeared on Riley's face, "I heard, this person is your son, right?"
Sorento, who was sitting next to Wren, shook his head, "She's gone too far, she shouldn't mention the father-son relationship between Sebis and Vito at this time, it will only anger Vito." β
The nobles are such an interesting group of people, lo and behold, a young girl faces atrocities and has to be humiliated by Vito as a justice in the court, the nobles don't think it's too much, and even think that this is right, it is a matter of course, after all, Vito is about to bury his child with his own hands. But when a girl who was brutalized and humiliated in public was only slightly provoked by the justice, she was overstated by the nobles.
If this is also excessive, then it is not Riley, not Vito, but the whole society, the whole humanity, the whole world.
Wren smiled and didn't answer his words, but at this moment, there was indeed something special hidden in Wren's deep eyes. In this moment, he felt the urge to destroy the whole world, something was roaring in his chest, wanting to tear his body and rush out of his chest. He lowered his face slightly, and a grim gaze swept over Vito's face.
When he looked at Riley again, the softness in his eyes flickered.
It's not you who are at fault, it's the aristocracy, it's this society, it's the world!
Ganwen's face also changed slightly, his expression was a little serious, and he glanced at Vito, who took a deep breath and bowed slightly.
"Did you hear that?", Vito looked at a small independent protruding space on the other side, there were some small holes in the wall of the space that were breathable, through the small holes, you could faintly see that there was a person in this independent space, "Do you have anything you want to refute what she said?"
"No, there's nothing wrong with what she said. A hoarse voice came out, and Riley was stunned for a moment, then began to tremble violently.
She couldn't forget the voice, yes, even if it became hoarse and low, even if it became lifeless, she would never forget it.
It's him!
Sebis!
Vito breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the gavel and knocked it, "Okay, Lady Riley, the charge of Sebis ** you and blasphemy against the royal family has been established, you can leave, on behalf of the Supreme Court of the Empire, thank you for your cooperation." β
