Chapter 46: Faith
During the trial of the case, Ye Feichen, as an eyewitness and a party, was also summoned to state the case. There was already a mountain of ironclad evidence, and Ye Feichen didn't need to say much, just summarized the matter, answered a few trivial questions and was allowed to leave.
Before leaving, he found a case officer and tentatively asked him if he could understand the situation.
"Of course, you have the right to know. You can know the information to the extent permitted by law. "The other party's words are quite sophisticated, polite, courteous, and measured.
"What's that little thug's name?"
"Mu Si."
"When you arrived at the scene, why did you skip me and arrest him?"
"The reasons are complex. What I can tell you is that this little gangster has a criminal record. Although he was not convicted of a felony, it was enough to greatly increase his suspicion. Plus," he said, looking up with a broad smile, "we trust the students of the Red Sea Academy. ”
"Really? Thank you very much. Ye Feichen said busily. This sudden kindness touched him doubly, "Besides, how could he rob a little boy?" ”
"It's simple, the money comes quickly. The boy came from a well-known wealthy merchant family in the Red Sea City. Children at this age rarely have the ability to discern and resist. I don't think it's surprising that he can make a lot of money with low-cost counterfeit products and a little pressure. ”
"How's that little boy doing?"
"Very nice. When he was discovered, he was admitted to the hospital with the best medical conditions, and the level of medical care in that hospital can only be regarded as ordinary. I have to say that your emergency treatment of the wound is in place and avoids a lot of potential risks and sequelae. Now he's fine, but he'll need some time to recover. I surmised that the thug might just want to intimidate him a little, and he didn't stop. In fact, the little boy's injuries were not very serious, and did not hurt his skull or brain. ”
Ye Feichen bowed his head and bowed: "Okay, thank you, officer." Then he turned and left.

After receiving commendations and awards from the school, as well as Huang Xudong's criticism and punishment (because he did not call for help in the first place when he encountered an unknown opponent in cultivation), Ye Feichen began to practice day after day and wait for the results of the trial.
After this battle, Ye Feichen was pleasantly surprised to find that his soul power cultivation had been greatly improved under the stimulation, breaking through the seventeenth level. At this cultivation speed, it wouldn't take long for him to be able to impact the second ring.
And the instantaneous inter-cutting ability of the dual attributes that he awakened at the end of the road now seems to have a meaning that goes far beyond combat. At least the speed of the soul power vortex in his body had increased significantly, and the point of light in the center of the vortex was obviously much larger. All of this meant that his cultivation speed would be further improved, and he would have a little more understanding of the two elements of ice and fire.
After defeating such a strong enemy at the next level, Ye Feichen was in a good mood. And when he thought of the large amount of compensation that followed, he was even more motivated.
So, he began to wait with hope.
Finally, the verdict was announced, a verdict that shocked Ye Feichen:
Mu Si, who had a dispute with a customer during the sale, missed and injured each other in pushing each other, had a good attitude of admitting mistakes, paid the relevant expenses of the injured, and was released after education. Ye Feichen and Yuxing did not know the truth and fought with Mu Si, causing adverse effects. However, because the circumstances are unclear and the motive for righteousness and courage is first, the injured will bear the costs of medical treatment and other expenses, and will not be held responsible.
Ye Feichen trembled with anger, and wanted to crumple this piece of paper into a ball and throw it into the trash. Yuxing walked over at this time. He was clearly aware of the verdict. So the two of them stood and shook together, and the picture was still a little joyful. But because of their gnashing teeth, no one dared to point a finger at the students passing by.
"It's too much! The court obviously did not investigate clearly and hastily pronounced the verdict, which is irresponsible! Ye Feichen slapped the white paper on the ground and brushed it away. Yuxing suppressed his anger and followed without saying a word. Out of school, the two parted ways. They all know what the other party wants to do, and they don't have time to ask.
On the way to the police station, Ye Feichen met the little boy.
Before Ye Feichen could react from his surprise, the little boy had already jumped up and pounced: "Big brother! Thank you for saving me! ”
Looking at the little boy's overflowing gratitude, the resentment in Ye Feichen's chest was also diluted a little: "It's okay if you're fine." My brother is going to run errands now, so let's talk later, okay? ”
Ye Feichen got up and wanted to leave, but as soon as he turned his head, he was grabbed by the little boy: "Big brother, can you do me another favor?" ”
"What's the busy?" Ye Feichen smiled bitterly and turned his head. In normal times, he was naturally willing to lend a hand. But he had something important to do, and he really didn't want to delay too much.
"Mom and Dad didn't know why lately, and suddenly got angry. They went to the policeman's uncle first, and then came back with a gloomy face. Later, they went to find a lot of friends, but they didn't seem to have fun at all, and Mom and Dad still had that expression on their faces when they came home... Big brother, you can even defeat that big bad guy, and there must be a way to make your parents happy. Is that okay, big brother? The little boy's eyes were filled with hope.
Ye Feichen felt a pang in his heart when he heard this: "Whose friend are your parents looking for?" ”
"Of course it's Mom and Dad, my friends are all children, and Mom and Dad can't play with them. But it's weird that when they used to go to play with friends, they never mentioned so many gifts, and they didn't leave mine... The little boy lowered his head as he spoke, and the expression on his face was like that of a child who had done something wrong, and he was entangled in grievances.
Ye Feichen was like being struck by lightning. He remembered everything before.
Gift... Friend...
It's impossible for a thug to afford a soul guide shield... Mu Si, who is not ashamed of his words... The sudden warning belt...
Inexplicable verdict... Fanatics at large...
Perhaps, the court is not ignorant of the truth. Perhaps, there was no miscarriage of judgment.
Ye Feichen's eyes fell cold almost instantly, just the moment he understood everything. But he tried his best to hide it, wrapping it in a kind smile. After all, this should not be known to a child – when he still believes that the world is pure white.
Actually, he himself is not. Believing that justice is neither late nor leaving early, that the side that believes in justice is always an overwhelming victory, that faith and justice can overcome everything... Now, those beliefs have been shaken with that judgment.
Or ... Ye Feichen smiled helplessly and said to the little boy: "You go back first, brother think of a way." ”
The little boy nodded vigorously, relieved, and hopped away. The clouds above obscured the blazing sun, casting a shadow that shrouded him in suffocating oppression and darkened the buildings in the distance.
He stared at the courthouse in silence for a moment, then turned away. This time, his destination is the Mecha Builders Guild.
