Today is a lively day in Englandtown.

But the buzz is for the people of England City, and has nothing to do with Nock and Seeger.

The two of them who had been sitting in the dungeon closed their eyes and recuperated with each other.

To be precise, it was Nock who closed his eyes and rested his mind.

Sieg was silent, thinking about how to help his son get rid of his crimes, and he didn't have time to deal with the outside world.

Until nightfall, the elder guard brought dinner for two.

"I'm sorry, because I'm waiting for Leon to wake up and buy food, and dinner is late."

The older guard apologized and put the tray of food into the cell.

"If there is anything else commanded, you will be called. By the way, my name is Jack. ”

Nock glanced at the food on the tray, four white loaves of bread, a pot of water or soup that I don't know if it was, and two clay bowls.

The food is very average, but as a prisoner, the treatment is definitely good.

If you are a real prisoner, you probably won't even be able to eat black bread.

"Okay, you don't have to come down in the future except to deliver food. As long as you don't provoke us, we won't trouble you. ”

Nock was too lazy to waste time on the two guards, and the two bronze-level guards probably didn't know anything and were thrown over to guard them, otherwise the young man wouldn't dare to do anything to Nock.

When Jack heard this, he hurriedly retired.

Back upstairs, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the two below are not as difficult as the above one.

When Leon woke up, he was furious and wanted to go down for revenge.

Jack couldn't help it, so he directly beat Leon before telling him his speculation.

After learning that the following two people were likely to be people he couldn't afford to offend, Leon turned grim.

Although he doubted that Jack was lying, he listened to Jack's advice.

Anyway, it's not their job to guard the prisoners, they are the queen's bodyguards, and it's okay to be temporarily transferred for a few days, so it's impossible to stay here all the time.

In this way, the four people who reached a consensus spent two days without incident.

Until......

In the afternoon of the third day, while studying the rags taken from Arsanos, he heard footsteps descending the stairs.

Confused, he put away the rags and looked at the staircase.

Zola's figure appeared at the top of the stairs, which not only relieved Nock, but also made the doubts in his heart even worse.

In the two days they were locked up, Zola did not show up.

Nock thought Zola had returned to the palace, but when he asked Jack, he found out that Zola had been in the master bedroom of the house, lying on a cradle made of vines, and had not moved.

But today she showed up, and it was very wrong.

"You're here."

"Hmm. What's wrong with him? It looks very unmotivated. ”

"It's been like this since the day I was locked up. Presumably worried about his son. ”

"Alas, it's useless to worry. In the afternoon, the Sherlock Holmes Awakening Public Trial will be held in the High Court. ”

Seeger, who had been ignoring Zola's conversation with Nock, finally reacted when he heard "Sherlock Holmes".

He sat up sharply and sat upright, his eyes fixed on Zola.

"Nope! They can't do this to my son! My son is innocent! ”

Looking at the roaring Sieg, Nock wanted to say to Sieg: Actually, your son is not as innocent as you think.

Nock didn't want to add fuel to the fire, though.

He looked at Zola and said, "What about the two of us?" What is she going to do with us. ”

Zola understood who Nock's "she" meant.

"Elizabeth didn't say, nor did she mention the two of you in Parliament. But from what I know of her, she probably wants to wait for Sherlock Holmes' trial to be over before dealing with Seeger's problem, and then you. ”

"Nope! I'm going out, I'm going to meet Sherlock! ”

"Don't be impulsive, Siggy!" Nock hurriedly held down Sieg, who was struggling to get up.

He turned to Zola and said, "Lady Zola, could you please do me a favor?" ”

"If you are let go, don't say anything. Although I was also unhappy with Elizabeth's decision, I had to abide by the agreement with her. ”

Zola didn't wait for Nock to speak, and persuaded Nok to dispel his thoughts.

Nock winked and laughed, "I didn't let you go." I'm just saying, Ms. Zola, you've had a hard time these two days, so it's also appropriate to go outside and get some fresh air, or find a hotel to take a shower and relax. After all, there are two guards guarding it, so you don't have to bother all the time, do you? ”

"You little slippery." Zora angrily poked Nock's head with her finger.

"Okay, I'll take half a day off. Come back before dinner and tap your hands. ”

With that, Zola pointed to Sig's foot, and a new vine foot appeared on Sig's left leg. Then, without saying a word, Zola left with his hands on his pillow.

Sieg looked at Nock suspiciously, "What kind of dumb riddle are you guys playing?" ”

Nock shrugged and said, "Aren't you in a hurry to see your son?" We'll go out in the afternoon. But you have to promise me that whatever the judge decides, you must not be impulsive, and you will wait until you come back in the evening. ”

Sieg only wants to see his son now, where can he care so much.

Hurriedly nodded in agreement.

In this way, Nock and Sieg waited for ten minutes, and after estimating that Zola had left the house, they rushed up the stairs and knocked the unsuspecting guards in the study, Jack and Leon, unconscious.

Outside the house, Nock said frankly: "You lead the way, I don't know where the high court is." ”

Sieg took the lead and walked ahead. The two of them walked towards the high court.

By the time they arrived outside the High Court, the crowd of onlookers was already dense, blocking the High Court.

The two of them couldn't find a way to get in, and they were anxious for a while.

"I have a way, follow me!"

Nock suddenly patted Sieg on the shoulder and motioned for Sieg to come with him.

The two soon arrived at the High Court, and when Nock looked around, and when he saw that there was no one, he motioned for Sieg to climb the wall.

The two of them successfully climbed over the wall of the High Court and entered the back of the High Court building.

The high court is large and adopts the ancient Byzantine architectural style.

There is only one entrance to the front door, but it is difficult for Nock to live in a monastery since he was a child.

Nock took Sig with him, and soon found an open window and climbed through it.

"This is supposed to be the judge's lounge, let's be careful, look for an opportunity to stun the two guards, change into their clothes, and go to the main hall for a hearing. But you have to make sure that you are not impulsive, or I'd rather be found out now. ”

"Okay, just let me see Sherlock, and I'll listen to you for the rest."

Sig agreed happily, but Nock was uneasy.

But there is no way, the arrow is on the bow, he can't care so much.

The two quickly seized the opportunity and knocked out the two guards in the hallway.

After changing into the guard's clothes, Nock was embarrassed again.

Zola only helped Sieg get a prosthetic leg for his left foot, and his left hand was still empty.

If someone sees it, it will definitely be recognized.

The kingdom doesn't let the cripples serve as guards.

"So, find a piece of clothing to fill the left side, and I'll cover on your left side. As long as you don't move, you shouldn't be able to see a problem with your hands. Find an opportunity to blend in with the audience, and when the time comes, we'll just squeeze into the crowd as much as we can. ”

In this way, the two swaggered through the corridor of the back courtyard and appeared in the lobby of the high court.

It just so happened that the trial of the case was at the point of presenting evidence, and everyone's attention was on the lawyer who presented the evidence, and no one noticed the two Nocks who touched up from behind.

The court police noticed it, but when they saw the two men in the guards' clothes, they thought they were new colleagues, and smiled at Nock.

Nock laughed back and dragged Sig into the crowd.

At this time, the lawyer who has finished presenting the evidence is making his final statement. (Note 1)

"Your Excellency, in light of the above findings given by the Police Station, on behalf of the Police Department, I charge the offender with the above offences of knowingly failing to report, conspiracy, and attempted murder. This concludes my statement, Your Excellency. ”

Wow!

The audience in the audience talked a lot, but they didn't expect that the events of these days were all related to the teenager in the defendant's seat.

Sherlock, who was in the dock, listened to the prosecution lawyer's accusation with a grim face.

He must save himself, and in the self-defense session for a while, he must remove himself from these troubles!

Sherlock was at first at a loss.

It is expected that whoever feels that life and death are unpredictable before falling into a coma, and suddenly waking up and becoming a prisoner, will feel confused.

Fortunately, it took him three days to figure out the ins and outs.

In general, Anna's plot is discovered, someone defeats Anna and then saves him, only to be mistaken for a villain and beaten away.

He should have been a victim, but because the murderer could not be found above, he was likely to make a fuss about him and use him as a substitute for the dead.

Although he was mentally prepared, when he really heard the accusations of the prosecution lawyer, he couldn't help but scold his mother in his heart.

Fortunately, he had already prepared for the worst in his heart and thought of a way to get out.

Sieg, who was mixed in the crowd, didn't know his son's intentions, and when he heard that his son was charged with three crimes, he immediately wanted to refute it in annoyance.

Fortunately, Nock had anticipated this situation and kept an eye on Sieg.

Seeing that Sieg had a precursor to action, he quickly covered his mouth and whispered in his ear to stop it.

"You're crazy! If you are exposed, your son will have absolutely no chance of turning over! The Queen will be sure to reveal your identity right away! Don't worry, let's see what the judge says. ”

"Bang!"

"Silence! Quiet! ”

The judge banged on the gavel and motioned for the audience to be quiet. (Note 2)

"Prisoner, do you have any objection to the prosecution's charges?"

The judge asked Sherlock as usual.

"Your Excellency, I have an objection! I do not admit the prosecution's allegations, nor do I admit that I am a prisoner. On the contrary, I have evidence that I am a victim. ”

"Wow!"

The crowd was in an uproar again.

In the face of conclusive accusations, I didn't expect the prisoner on the stage to want to overturn the case!

It's a real thrill for them.

The judge didn't expect that his symbolic question would show that the prisoner was still serious.

Doesn't he know that the case has already been decided?

But since Sherlock said so, the judge couldn't help but let him open his mouth to defend himself.

So he had to say, "Oh? Since you have proof of your innocence, let's talk about it! ”

[Note 1: The story is set in a chaotic era, but the main theme is the Middle Ages, so lawyers are also a nascent profession, and currently only serve the authorities, helping the police station to prosecute criminals for their crimes.] A lawyer does not defend a prisoner, so a prisoner does not have a defense lawyer. In the court trial, only the prosecution presents evidence, and then the judge asks the prisoner whether he pleads guilty, and then the judge decides how to sentence the prisoner. If the offender is a nobleman and can pay a sufficient fine, he can be punished.

Note 2: Gavel. I don't know what it's called, but if you don't know, just find a lawyer and take a look. 】
