"Don't worry, don't worry, I said I'd go with you, there's no need to lock up the spirit stars. With so many people looking at me, I can't run away, can I? ”

In the cage of the structure made by Green Lantern John Stewart, Red still looked leisurely as he held Spiritstar, and his limbs and Spiritstar's limbs were locked up by the mechanical shackles that he had seen that day to block the energy of the red light.

The trial was held at the Federal Supreme Court, and Red looked up to see the statues of Confucius, Moses, and Solon on the lintel, and before he could take a closer look, he was forcibly brought to trial.

"Now, the trial of the case concerning the deliberate murder of two by Red Douglas ......"

Throughout the trial, Red, who did not have the right to choose a lawyer, could only participate as a bystander, and did not even have the opportunity to make a confession.

At this time, Red's eyes scanned the entire trial scene, which was broadcast live to the world, and the spectators were densely packed with media.

In the corner of the spectator room, Red saw a—oh no, two familiar figures.

Louise, who was watching the trial with a worried face in the crowd, was suddenly tapped on the shoulder by someone, and turned her head to see that she was covered in time before she almost screamed.

"Clark? When are you? ”

"Shhhhh

Next to Louise was a large man with black-rimmed glasses and a slightly hunched back. He is none other than Superman's secret identity, Clark Kent, a reporter for the Daily Planet.

"Do you think Red will get a fair verdict, Clark?"

"No way, I've heard the justices whispering...... They had already decided before the trial to obey public opinion and sentence Red to a heavy sentence. ”

The Supreme Court of the United States has no jury, and is heard only by the Chief Justice and a few justices, who represent the highest judicial authority in the country.

But they are also appointed by political parties and presidents, and their judgment does not completely exclude the influence of public opinion.

"Excuse me, I'd like to say a few words."

Suddenly, Red raised his head and narrowed his eyes, the justices looked at each other, and finally the chief justice tapped the gavel in his hand with a straight face.

"The court is in order, and the process must not be interrupted without permission, and any requests are made by your lawyer!"

Red's lawyer was of course also appointed by the government, and Red didn't seem to care when he heard this reply, just lowered his head again and stroked the spirit star.

"Are these shackles uncomfortable, Lingxing?"

"Meow~"

"It's okay, it'll be over soon."

On the sidelines, Louise's eyes widened and she said with a look of indignation.

"So it's just a formality? Red didn't even have a chance to defend himself? ”

"Red is nothing more than a weapon used by Waller to attack the Justice League, and the truth doesn't matter at all in such a frenzied atmosphere outside."

When Clark's eyes under the lenses looked at Red, there was a hint of sadness and sighing.

Waller's way of inciting the people to oppression is simply impossible for them to deal with, after all, they are not facing the most vicious criminals, but ordinary people who they have always been determined to protect.

This is where the limitations of superheroes lie.

Prosecutors released photos of the mutilated bodies of Black Thunderbolt and Earth Force, as well as videos of Spirit Star slaughtering on alien planets, which added to the emotions of the people watching the trial through the live broadcast.

"He can't be allowed to continue to plague society! Death penalty! ”

"For justice, for the lighthouse! Death penalty! ”

"Death penalty!" "Death penalty!"

Even Red could hear the shouts of the demonstrators outside the Supreme Court, but when he heard them, he seemed to have a big smile on his face.

The justices who heard him saw his expression and seemed to think that he was unrepentant, and they all frowned and became more and more dissatisfied.

Finally, after a not-so-long hour, the Chief Justice quickly handed down his verdict.

"Red Douglas murdered Brion Markov, Jefferson Pierce the facts are clear and the evidence is conclusive. Rader Douglas is now sentenced...... Death penalty! ”

Clark Kent's brow furrowed, he grabbed his shirt and stepped forward, and Louise noticed his movement and immediately tugged at his coat in surprise.

"Wait, Clark, what do you want to do?"

"I'm going to forcibly take him to the Fortress of Solitude and hide him until Bruce returns."

"But then the Justice League will be completely ruined, and Amanda Waller's goal has been achieved!"

"I can't do that much now, Louise. Otherwise......"

And John Stewart also looked a little hesitant, although he wanted to avenge his brother-in-law, he did not expect the court to actually sentence Red to death - after all, although the lighthouse country has not abolished the death penalty, it is also very cautious about the death penalty.

But it seems that the death penalty is now what the people want, and no political party wants to lose its reputation by sheltering this murderous maniac who has aroused public outrage.

At this moment, Red, who had been silent and smiling, suddenly raised his head.

"Now that the judgment has been handed down, I think it's okay to say a few words to those people outside."

Although he was in prison, Red still seemed very calm, and even the coercion exuded by him made the justices dare not speak out against it for a while.

John Stewart furrowed his brows and floated up to Red.

"I think life is precious, if you are willing to sincerely apologize for what you have done and heal the wounds in the hearts of those who have been hurt...... I can ask my sister to issue a letter of understanding for you to alleviate your crimes. ”

Red shrugged his shoulders and made a smiling expression.

John Stewart's eyebrows were furrowed, but he still used the green light energy to carry Red's cage through the door of the Supreme Court, and came to the crowd outside, which was already as endless as a zombie siege.

This scene seems somewhat familiar...... When I remembered it, I seemed to have dreamed of this scene when I first put on the red light ring, but there was a little problem with the details.

He is not a hero who is loved by everyone, but the opposite...... He is a wicked man who is spurned by all men.

"That's him, the executioner!"

"Look at his red eyes, it's like a demon!"

"Hang him and put him in the electric chair!"

"Let this scumbag go to hell!"

......

The invective reached Red's ears, but the latter didn't seem to care about it, just glancing at the people who had been incited.

"See their hatred for you, you deserve it. Justice is never absent, come, it's time to publish your confession. ”

John Stewart used the green light energy to materialize a horn in front of Red.

"Don't say anything superfluous and sincerely apologize for what you did."

Red cleared his throat, and the audience quickly fell silent.

"To be honest, I prepared a lot of words at the beginning to convince you in the trial...... But it seems that the so-called trial is a unilateral judgment of the strong against the weak. ”

"In that case, I'll make a long story short - I'm going to kill Amanda Waller and the people who kept her now, and get away if you don't want to die."

"Hey! What the hell are you talking about?! ”

John Stewart's face changed, and he immediately grabbed Red's shoulder hard.

"Don't you understand?"

Red grinned, a haughty grin.

"Then I'll take you as an example."

As soon as Red's words fell, he saw his hands exert force, accompanied by a crunching sound, and the mechanical shackles that bound his hands were broken by brute force.

At the same time, a blood-colored severed blade appeared in his hand—a weapon with only the hilt, and the blade of the sword was no more than 20 centimeters long.

"What do you want to do—"

Swish!

John Stewart's eyes widened, and in his pupils full of disbelief, blood splattered in the air......

And his arm with the lamp ring.

"Whoever stands in my way dies, it's as simple as that."
