Chapter 11: Spit out the Truth Medicine
Li Yu brought Kaiden to Clara and asked her to learn the lingua franca of the mainland from Clara first.
Kayden is a linguistic genius herself, having mastered seven languages while on Earth, and learning one more is not too difficult for her.
And she also plans to take this opportunity to collect information on the politics, economy, culture and other aspects of the new world, so as to provide a basis for decision-making for subsequent actions.
Niu Xiangui and other traversers heard that there were newcomers again, and some people even came to watch.
Kayden communicated with them in Chinese, and no one could tell that she was actually a foreigner.
And Kayden's attitude is also very good, and he does not exude any arrogance of a former Wall Street elite, and basically answers all questions.
Niu Xiangui asked about her previous job, and Kayden replied that she was a journalist.
Then she found that Niu Xiangui looked at her with a strange look.
"Any questions?" Kayden asked.
"No, no." Niu Xiangui hurriedly shook his head, "The reporter is good, the reporter is good, it's good to be ......."
Niu Xiangui held back for a long time and didn't think about what was so good about the reporter, so he could only forcibly change the topic, "Are you also dying of overwork?" ”
"No, I have a genetic disease in my family," Cayden was a little surprised, glancing at the others, "Did you all die overtime?" ”
"That's not it," Niu Xiangui said, "like Lao Zhu, he was stabbed to death in the face of righteousness, but our death has more or less something to do with work." ”
"Oh...... That's unfortunate, physical health should always come first. ”
"But those bosses will never understand that." Niu Xiangui sneered, "After all, our health has nothing to do with them.
"They only care about performance metrics one after another, and unfortunately there's nothing on the other side that can bind them. But in Brattis, we have a double holiday. ”
"I'm sorry, I'm new here, is our church strong here?" Kayden asked.
"That's right," Liu Xuebin continued, "Especially in the Western Realm, there is no church that can compare to us, well, there may have been before, there is an indigenous sect called the Silver Moon Church that is quite powerful."
"But it's crumbling now, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a follower of the Goddess of the Silvermoon here, the High Priestess of the Silvermoon Church, and now a student of the Prophet Merlin."
"Thanks to Saturday and the Prophet Merlin, everyone here can enforce a double holiday, and those noble lords are also afraid of us, and what they fear most now is the appearance of the judges of the Inquisition in their territory."
"That's pretty good." Cayden chimed in.
"yes, if I didn't run a few bathhouses now, I wouldn't want to join the Inquisition." Niu Xiangui said.
"There's nothing better in this world than Cha Overtime."
…………
Kayden then asked Niu Xiangui and others some questions, and also made an appointment to go to the movies together on the weekend.
On the other side, Li Yu also returned to the City Lord's Mansion.
Miss Rabbit was now busy trying a case involving two nobles, a knight accusing his lord's youngest son of insulting his wife while he was away.
The lord's youngest son insisted that the knight's wife had seduced him first, and the two of them had each held it once, and quarreled in front of Ilea.
The girl also felt a little tricky after listening to the statements of the two, mainly because there was no evidence on both sides, and they both insisted that what they said was the truth, and the other party was lying.
They even fought together in front of Miss Rabbit, but fortunately they were quickly separated by the guards, but both of them looked angry and glared at each other.
The female lord couldn't see who was weak-hearted, and was planning to come to a martial arts trial according to the tradition on the continent of Bratis.
At this moment, she saw the familiar figure by the door again, and her eyes lit up, "Prophet Merlin, when did you come back?" ”
"I'll be here when I'm done, and it's been a while." Li Yu said.
And the two nobles also hurriedly saluted after seeing Li Yu and did not continue to entangle.
"Then you've heard their testimony too, is there any way to tell which of them is lying?"
Li Yu nodded, "Of course, I can give each of them a pill of vomiting medicine, a liar will die within four days after swallowing the medicine, but a person who tells the truth will live." ”
After Li Yu finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the two nobles, "Are you willing to take the Truth Pill?" ”
"I do!" The knight said without hesitation.
The other hesitated, and said, "I can eat it too, and I trust that my lord will give us a just result on Saturday."
When Li Yu heard this, he called Donia and whispered a few words in her ear, and the latter nodded and left in a hurry.
Ten minutes later, she returned, walked up to the two nobles, stretched out a hand, spread out her palm, and there were two pink pills inside.
The two men each pinched a slice and put it in their mouths and swallowed it.
Tonia then asked them to open their mouths and checked their mouths to prevent anyone from pretending to swallow but then vomiting the medicine when they got out.
Thankfully, no one did.
After the two of them left, Miss Rabbit immediately smiled, "You still have such a powerful thing, why didn't you take it out earlier, and we don't have to worry about them lying when we interrogate those captives." ”
"I don't have that medicine." Li Yu said calmly, "That's just an ordinary vitamin tablet." ”
Miss Rabbit and Li Yu have been staying for a long time, and they also know what vitamins are, so they can't help but be stunned, "Huh? ”
Li Yu said, "It's not worth risking your life for this kind of thing, if someone lies, then they should come to me to confess within four days." ”
"And what if no one comes looking for you?" Ilea asked.
"That means what the two of them said is true."
"How is this possible?" The female lord was surprised.
"It's possible, if the knight's wife was caught cheating with the lord's youngest son, and was forced to lie to her husband, then they would have told the truth as they believed."
"Makes sense, why didn't I think of it!" Miss Rabbit suddenly said, "This is a good way to find out who lied and to avoid the bloodshed caused by the duel." ”
Donia also praised, "There is really nothing in this world that can stump you, the Prophet. ”
Li Yu shook his head and said, "There are a lot of things that make me embarrassed." ”
However, neither Donia nor Ilea took this sentence too seriously, they felt that Li Yu would say this just because of humility.
Especially Ilea, she had just solved a difficult matter, but when she thought of another difficult matter, her brows couldn't help but wrinkle.
