The leader said, "This thing is a top collector's item in our country.

The reindeer head of this quality in front of you can be sold for at least 300 gold coins on the black market, which is only the original price. ”

Hearing this, one of the Guards soldiers smacked his lips in surprise: "Good fellow, is it so valuable?" It's not worth so much money when I sell my hometown's mansion! No wonder you people take risks, and the profits are really crazy. ”

Baron Victor said: "This is considered a combination of human stolen goods, can you admit the fact of poaching wild animals in our country?" Can you admit to killing our rangers? Can it be admitted that he resisted arrest by force in the course of his flight? ”

"I admit it...... We did it. ”

"There is no evidence, I will draft a confession document, and after you finish writing, you will sign it."

With that, Victor took out a pen and paper and wrote a scribbled confession document in the faint light of the fire.

It detailed the crimes of the poachers, and then handed them to the poachers' leader, who signed the paper, bit his finger and pressed his handprints with blood.

"Very well, the arrest process is reasonable and legal, you have changed from a suspect to a full-fledged criminal, and the rest will be handled by the prosecutor and the judge." Victor folded the confession document and put it in his pocket.

The poacher leader seemed to remember something, he shuddered, seemed to be a little hesitant, did not know whether to come up with what he thought of, and after a few seconds, he stumbled:

"My lord, there is a rule in our Solan Kingdom, all nationals of our country, no matter what they have committed in a foreign country, must be extradited back to our country, under the supervision of our judges, and finally serve their sentences in the prison of our Solan Kingdom."

"Fuck you fart! How can this be true? The hussar captain spat at him and scolded: "You Solan Kingdom is too domineering, it is you who poached Valsta's protected animals and killed our rangers, how can you be allowed to return home!" ”

The other hussar was also angry when he heard this, and scolded: "Let your king die!" This is Valsta, the sacred territory where our ancestors have lived for generations! But it's not the turn of foreigners to set the rules for us, we are not afraid of any challenge! You crumbs of the kingdom of Solan! ”

"! When death is imminent, he dares to make a lot of nonsense. We're just going to slaughter these bastards and avenge our rangers, and no one will know what's going on here. Several malevolent-looking hussars drew their curved sabers and gestured at the necks of the four prisoners.

The leader of the poachers was so frightened that he kowtowed again and again, "Uh...... Gentlemen...... It was me who was wrong! I shouldn't have said that to you! Please don't be angry...... You don't remember anyone's mistakes......"

Baron Wicktingstronhald stopped his men and pressed his hand on their blades: "Outsiders won't know who killed the prisoner, but we know for ourselves that we have to play by the rules, put away our weapons, and retreat!" ”

The enraged crowd then put away their swords and retreated, their eyes still glaring fiercely at the poacher.

The leader finally picked up a life, his face was covered with sweat with fright, and he inhaled and exhaled heavily: "Thank you, my lord, you really enforce the law impartially. ”

Victor lowered his head and said: "I have always acted according to the rules, and I promise that you will not be tortured or tortured, but for your crimes, you will definitely be guillotined." ”

"Hey...... I shouldn't have been greedy for money in the first place, it's too late now......" The poacher leader sighed, shaking his head silently and weeping, and the other three prisoners also looked depressed.

The hussar captain said, "Lord Victor, the brethren on the road have returned, and all the fleeing poachers have been killed, and the corpses are piled together, leaving only the four bastards on the ground still panting. ”

"What are our casualties?"

"The losses were slight, only one of our side was shot in the shoulder, two were slightly wounded in the white-knuckle battle, and five horses broke their hooves in the mud."

"Very well, Captain! You and your people have done a good job, and I will take credit for you in front of Her Majesty the Mother."

"Thank you, Lord Baron! Now what? Will you send these guys back to the capital overnight? ”

Viktor looked at the cavalrymen around him and said:

"Now that the brothers are tired, bury the corpse on the spot first, so as not to stink.

We pitched our tents under a nearby tree and slept for the night, and then we woke up early before we set off on our way.

Someone's coming! Tie these four awaiting prisoners to a tree! Remember to tie it up and don't let them run away! ”

Nothing happened that night.

Early the next morning, Victor led the pursuit party all the way north, leaving the royal gardens and heading in the direction of Fort Midknight, the imperial capital.

After returning to the capital, they handed over the four prisoners and their confessions to the prosecutors of the imperial capital.

The baron announced that the pursuit party was disbanded on the spot, the hussars returned to the barracks to rest, and Victor himself went to the Golden Lake Palace to resume his life, which was unanimously praised by the emperor and his ministers.

Two dull weeks had passed, and a servant of the Baron's mansion knocked on the door of Victor's study.

"Lord Baron, His Majesty our Emperor has summoned you to the palace for deliberations, and His Majesty has also sent a carriage, and the coachman and escort team are waiting for you in the courtyard."

"Oh? Her Majesty the Mother Queen has something to do with me, and it seems that she is still in a hurry? Victor put down the quill in his hand and stood up.

The valet put on his coat. Fastened the lock of the cloak: "There should be something urgent, I listened to them, His Majesty the Emperor temporarily changed the schedule, urgently returned to the imperial capital from the eastern part of the empire, held a cabinet meeting in the chamber of Jinhu Palace, and summoned you to participate." ”

Victor nodded: "Then I have to hurry, I can't make Her Majesty the Mother wait longer." He hurriedly took a sip of hot tea and stuffed a few slices of buttery bread into his mouth to satisfy his hunger.

In his busy schedule, he didn't forget to glance at the portrait of Princess Rosemary hanging on the wall before going out and getting into the carriage.

When he arrived at the meeting hall of Jinhu Palace, when the royal attendants pushed open the door, Victor was surprised to find that the huge conference hall was full of important ministers of the Scales Kingdom, not only the current high-ranking officials, but even the retired old ministers.

Under the guidance of his attendants, Victor sat down not far from the throne and listened to the two ministers beside him complain.

"Hey, I was watching a horse race with a gambler just now, and I bet a lot of money on it! Suddenly, a few people came over to bring me to the meeting, and I don't know if I won or lost the bet! What a rush! ”

"Not really, so do I! I was woken up when I took a nap.,It's vacation time.,I really don't understand.,What's going on so anxious to have a meeting! ”
