Chapter 241: A New Order, New Troubles

"Now there is a trial for Red Douglas, for crimes such as premeditated murder, mass murder, possession of weapons of mass destruction, and crimes against humanity."

At the International Criminal Court in The Hague, a black judge knocked on the gavel, but looked so nervous that he almost dropped it.

He wiped his cold sweat and glanced up at the courtroom before he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since the suspect did not respond to the summons, after jury discussion, the trial was unanimously agreed to be held at a later date—"

"I'm against it!"

A loud shout echoed throughout the International Tribunal, and a black canary, dressed in a tight leather jacket and pantyhose, with blond hair draped over her shoulders, stood up from the plaintiff's bench with a displeased face, her pretty face now covered with frost.

"Wait a little longer, I'll definitely find a way to catch that guy here!"

The black canary also seemed to use its superpowers, and its loud voice made the eardrums of everyone present buzz.

And at this moment, the black canary's mobile phone rang, and she hurriedly answered the phone with a happy face.

"Hela, did you catch that bastard? I'm in The Hague, just get him here......"

"I'm sorry Dinah...... I was unable to find Red Douglas on Paradise Island, and I contacted the watchtower, but I didn't capture him leaving Paradise Island at all. ”

"Damn, damn ......"

The black canary hung up the phone unwillingly, she originally thought that this time she would definitely bring Red to trial, so she pushed for this public trial.

And seeing the expression of the black canary, both the judge and the other staff in the courtroom were obviously a little happy.

Just kidding, the last trial of Red Douglas resulted in the death of the entire city, and if it weren't for the Black Canary using his connections and the status of the Justice League to drive public opinion, they wouldn't want to offend the killer.

"Wait, I remember that the International Criminal Court in The Hague can conduct trials and pronounce verdicts without the presence of the person being tried, and it is not a way to drag on like this, so let's end this matter today, don't waste public resources."

At this moment, a lazy voice sounded, and the black canary first looked happy, thinking that she had finally met a righteous partner, but when she turned her head to look, her face immediately became gloomy.

Lex Luthor...... What the hell are you thinking! ”

"Don't rush so much, Black Canary. Isn't this helping you, and considering who I am now, if you, as the voice of the Justice League, have a bad relationship with the new Grand Commander of the United States, I am afraid that the confidence of the people will be damaged. ”

I saw that Lex Luthor was still holding his old bald head, but the smile on his face was even more arrogant and unbeaten.

After the eventual crisis, the Lex Group took over almost the entire United States disaster reconstruction business, which was originally an opportunity to make insane profits, but under the orders of Lex Luthor, he assisted in the reconstruction of the city almost at a cost, or at a loss.

This gave the Lex Group and Lex Luthor as the cEo a very high prestige, so in the first general election after the end of the final crisis, Luthor was elected as the new commander of the United States with a very high approval rating of 99%.

The black canary gritted its teeth, turned its head and did not speak.

Now that the Justice League is leaderless, Black Canary, as the most senior veteran in addition to the Big Seven, cannot take the lead in conflict with Luther.

The justices of the International Criminal Court in The Hague looked a little embarrassed by the demands of the President of the United States, although on the surface the International Criminal Court is an independent institution that is not interfered with by other countries, and even the United States is not a member state - but in fact, everyone understands that there is no such thing as an international independent institution in this world.

After some discussion, the judges, although they looked uneasy, finally decided to formally open the trial.

The black canary had a happy look in her eyes, and she gestured to the prosecutor next to her, because their king, Brion, also known as the Earth Force, had died at the hands of Red, so the country had been committed to bringing Red to justice.

Soon, prosecutors began to submit evidence that Red had killed superheroes and caused the disaster in Washington.

“...... In summary, we believe that the evidence of Red Douglas's crime is conclusive—"

After all, Red killed Green Lantern John Stewart in full view of everyone, proving that he had a record of killing people, and the black canary looked at the cameras around her, and she knew that her goal had been achieved.

In fact, the Black Canary doesn't expect to actually judge Red, but she can't accept that the members of the Justice League die like this, and Red, as the murderer, can swagger away with it.

Not to mention that many of them were friends of the Black Canary, who also knew the family of the deceased - thinking of the loss of his father, the Black Canary decided to give them justice no matter what.

And this international criminal tribunal, there have been many times in history when a sentence has been imposed on someone, but it has not been actually carried out, and the black canary only wants to symbolically give an account to the deceased.

Now that the evidence is conclusive, I am afraid that the court will have to make a verdict no matter what...... Of course, in reality, it is estimated that it will never be executed, and this is clear to the black canary.

However, justice delayed, symbolic justice is also justice!

As Black Canary had expected, the judges were ready to give their verdict after a look of embarrassment......

"Wait a minute!"

However, at this moment, a deep and loud voice sounded from the spectators.

The black canary turned its head to look at it, and immediately raised its eyebrows slightly, and a sense of foreboding arose in her heart.

"Black Adam? What the hell do you want to do......

"I am speaking in my capacity as a representative of Kandak, and before the verdict is officially handed down, allow me to say a few words on behalf of Kandak."

Black Adam, who is both a superhuman and the ruler of the country, glanced at the entire courtroom and said with a smirk.

"Because of the deep friendship that Red Douglas has established with our country, for the security and peaceful development of our country...... Kandak temporarily withdrew from the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. ”

At this moment, the black canary knew that something was wrong.

"The Republic of Tunisia also withdraws from ...... temporarily"

"We in the Republic of Uganda are also ......"

In the aftermath of the eventual crisis, Kandaq has become the de facto boss in Africa and the Middle East, and many countries have responded immediately to Black Adam's statement.

"We, the United States—"

Suddenly, at this moment, Lex Luthor also stood up, and the audience fell silent for a moment.

"Oh, what do you see I'm doing, the United States is not a member of the Treaty, I just want to say that the United States is considering signing this Statute...... However, the condition is that all judgments before the signing are not recognized. ”

Luther's position was already very obvious, so as soon as his words fell, a series of European and American countries also stood up to express their positions.

The black canary's face turned pale, and the same ugly expression was Prosecutor Macwia, who was sitting next to her.

She knew Lex Luthor's intentions, and if the trial was controversial or unsuccessful, Macwia could continue to fight for it, but if the trial had already been decided, it would be impossible to file a lawsuit again......

"After discussion, it was decided that the verdict of Red Douglas was ...... Guilty. ”

The judge spoke quickly, and wiped the cold sweat from his head, as if he was afraid that someone would show up at this time to kill him.

However, this decision will only take effect in the current member States...... The current number of Contracting States is ...... 1, only Makvia remains. ”

The black canary clenched his fists, where is this trial of Red's crimes, this is simply to write off all the crimes that Red has ever sins!

"Nope! Please, please wait! ”

At this moment, Prosecutor Macwia, who was next to the black canary, suddenly stood up, with a cloudy expression on his face.

"Sit down first, don't cause conflict at this time-"

The black canary tried to hold the prosecutor, but the latter dodged several steps and said in a trembling voice.

"Macvia and Macvia have also temporarily withdrawn from the signatories."

At this moment, the Black Canary could feel the mocking smile on Lex Luthor's face.

Justice has indeed arrived, but no country has embraced it.

The black canary sighed lightly, she now had to accept a reality - the order of the world had been changed.

It is true that Red Douglass cannot escape justice.

But he himself used his power to redefine justice.

——

"So, I've been found guilty, but no country has dared to convict me – not even Makwea, who filed the case, right?"

Red scratched his head when he heard Lex Luthor call him, to be honest, he didn't care about the outcome of the so-called trial, and in fact he had promised the Black Canary to attend the trial in the first place.

And the reason why he didn't go is very simple, he forgot.

Red glanced at Hela beside him, no wonder she was so free to come to herself for afternoon tea today, she probably was originally sent to take him to The Hague, as for why she didn't remind him......

"It's rare to have an afternoon tea time that you invited, and I don't want to be taken up by some boring international criminal court."

Hela seemed to see what she was thinking, snorted softly, and continued to sip her black tea gracefully.

Well, but this result is not bad, even if all the unforgivable things in Red's past have been liquidated in a centralized round, but no country intends to pursue them, and no one in the future can talk about these things.

After all, the verdict has been issued, but no one has carried it out, so it can't be blamed that the prisoner has not been caught.

Red sighed in his heart, as the saying goes, those who steal the hook are punished, and those who steal the country are princes, but he didn't expect that he would be spurned by the world when he killed a few people, but after he really became a monster and controlled the life and death of countless people, it was a different situation.

"Thank you for your help, Lex Luthor."

"It's right to help each other...... I just won the election, and maybe there's a lot more we can work with. ”

Red also knows that Lex Luthor is the kind of character who can't afford to be profitable, and there must be a reason why he deliberately sold his favor today, but Red also pushed the boat down, and it didn't hurt to maintain a good relationship with Luthor anyway.

Not to mention, he'd just smuggled a whole bunch of stuff from the underground of the Lex Group - hopefully he wouldn't care when he found out.

Airplanes.

Suddenly, an invisible wave came from the sky, this is the movement of the magic barrier of Paradise Island being opened, it seems that Cao Cao Cao has arrived, and the person he sent to move seems to have returned.

"Handle with care, handle with care — be careful, God knows if bumping this thing will kill billions of people in Australia."

Under the command of Ivan Vanko, two Kryptonians of the Overlord and the Overlord Maiden, carried a container about the size of a house from the sky and carefully placed it in the garden of the palace on Paradise Island.

"Actually, there's no need to be so nervous, I guess the Mobius chair is quite durable."

Red looked at them as if they were facing a great enemy, and couldn't help but remind, only to be given a blank look by Ivan Vanko, he opened the container, and in addition to the Mobius chair, there were many mechanical devices that he couldn't understand.

"The chair was sturdy enough, but everything else connected to it was precision instruments. To manage the red light rings of billions of people, the use of this computing power is not a simple matter - okay, then I will solve it, you continue to go with the woman, don't bother me. ”

After discussion between Ivan and Red, they decided to move the Mobius chair to Paradise Island, and began to officially transform it into their own red light total energy and central computer, and the professional things were left to professionals, and Red was not good at interfering in Ivan's work.

"What did you bring to our paradise island again?!"

Just then, a gloomy voice sounded behind Red.

Red turned around and found that it was a somewhat haggard Hippolyta, staring at him with a complicated gaze.

"It's 'my' paradise island, Queen Hippolyta. Since this is my home, you don't care what I bring in, after all, now in the strict sense, you are a guest staying on Paradise Island. ”

Red shrugged his shoulders and said that after defeating Darkseid and returning, he claimed the ownership of Paradise Island from Hippolyta as he had agreed before.

"But what we agreed before was that you had to kill Diana!"

Hippolyta's mood seemed a little unstable, and she didn't even care that Hela was still around.

"I have asked Athena for an oracle, and Diana's soul has not returned to Olympus at all......"

"It's none of my business, Queen, and I can assure you anyway...... Prove it with your daughter's relics—"

Red took a step forward and removed a gleaming lasso from Hippolyta's waist and slipped it over his hand.

"Diana is no longer alive in this world, I have no lie about that."

Hippolyta seemed to want to say something, but she gritted her teeth when she looked at the mantra lasso in Red's hand, and finally snatched the lasso back.

"You deceived me...... But don't try to deceive the gods – or you'll pay! ”

Looking at Hippolyta's back, Red's eyes narrowed.

"There are so many people who want me to pay the price, and you Greek gods will probably have to stand in line."

Suddenly, he seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky.

I could barely see green points of light shining in the sky.

Look, the first trouble is coming.
