Royal College, Fanny's villa.

"Any news of him?" Barnett asked softly, sitting across from Fanny.

Fanny's expression froze slightly, and she slowly shook her head.

She had no doubt about Barnett's loyalty to the British Empire, this matter was too big, and if she really told Barnett, it was likely that not only would she not save Xia Zuo, but it would also have the opposite effect.

"Oh...... When is Mistress Fiona coming?" Barnett asked again.

"Just these days. Fanny said.

......

British Empire, Buckingham Palace, Queen's Lounge.

Mary II, with her silver hair and a dignified appearance, sat on a soft couch and savored a delicate pastry, while the white cat lay on her lap and licked her paws.

The door suddenly opened, and the Queen's own brother, Prince James, who was nearly fifty years old, entered the room respectfully and saluted the Queen, "Your Majesty!"

"How's it going?" asked Mary II, turning her head as she put half of the pastry back on her plate.

"In the past few days, the Flying Dragon Knights have gone to Billy's 27 residences in our country, and a total of more than 17 million gold coins have been confiscated, and other jewelry, luxury goods, residences and other items worth a total of 3.1 million gold, and 6.3 million gold accounts have been seized. Prince James said respectfully.

"Well, well, the Swiss bank will leave him alone and take him to court...... said the Queen.

"And ......," said Prince James, hesitating.

"What else?" said the Queen, frowning.

"By the time we arrived, Billy's first factory in the suburbs had all been evacuated and everything had been emptied, and according to the slaves we had captured, Billy had recently been making deals with Dutch arms dealers to develop new ......muskets," said Prince James.

"Holland?" the Queen muttered, for hundreds of years the Netherlands had been one of the British Empire's greatest rivals. Although in the past hundred years, the Dutch national power has changed from prosperity to decline, and the colonies have shrunk sharply, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and since Mary II can build the British Empire from a first-class power to a superpower in a few decades, it is naturally impossible to despise the opponent.

The reason for catching Billy was of course not because of the batch of muskets in question, that kind of thing was not at all for the queen to ask about personally, and the failure of any sea encirclement and suppression of pirates was just an excuse, even if the muskets were really fine. At this time, Billy will also be arrested for other reasons.

The real reason is that he is too rich, and the rich make many people blush, talk to the queen, and say that the queen has been moved.

The two essential resources of war, weapons and food, Billy was extremely rich and engaged in the arms business. He possessed both of these resources, and could start a war in the heart of the British Empire at any time if they were exploited by foreign forces, or if he had great ambitions in his own right. He can be described as a huge potential threat.

This is the real reason for arresting him, he has money and guns, and he is not 100% loyal to the British Empire, and he is in the core of the British Empire. These reasons are sufficient.

What's more, Billy's business is illegal in the first place, and the queen wants to eradicate him. There is no need for any other reason at all.

"How's that Steam Alliance spy doing?" the queen asked, changing the subject.

"Back to Your Majesty, according to our investigation, that person ...... Probably not a spy of the Steam Alliance. ”

"Oh? ”

"According to the information from the Secret Service, the thug is only fourteen years old, and he has been studying at the Royal College in England before he was imprisoned, with excellent grades, in addition to studying in the fifth grade of the mechanical department of the Cultural Academy, he also joined the Legion of Glory in the Fighting Academy, it is said that the Tyrant of All Transformations has personally tested him, and his strength can be ranked second among all students, Mr. Barnett has planned to send him to the Reinforcement Hall, and the time is set on the day of the incident, and the initial cause of the violent conflict is that Nandy, the son of the sheriff, wants to kill him, so it triggers the subsequent incident...... Nandy is the number one student in the academy in martial arts. Prince James said.

"Still a student?" the queen pondered.

The death of a few people in this matter doesn't feel anything to her, the main thing is the impact, which has caused a sensation in England City, so it must not be dealt with hastily.

"Yes, however, it is said that there was once a super strong person around him, and on the day of the invasion of the Demon Legion, many students saw it with their own eyes, and ...... We haven't found out the vampire who tried to rescue him on the day of the incident, and his identity should be more than just a student. Prince James replied.

"Well, what else?" asked the Queen.

"Also, the thug is from South America, and because his information has been tampered with, it is impossible to pinpoint his identity, but he has a very distinctive feature on his body, a black scorpion tattoo on his back, which the Secret Service believes may be some kind of symbol...... The Ministry of Machinery has conducted research on the two weapons in his possession, but there are no results yet, and the two weapons are difficult to disassemble......"

Prince James kept looking down and talking, but didn't notice that when he mentioned that the thug was from South America and had a black scorpion tattoo on his back, the queen's face changed, as if she had thought of something.

"Stop, shut up!" the queen raised her hand and gestured to James to stop, thought for a moment, turned her head to look at Prince James, there seemed to be a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, a little strange smile, and asked, "His name, full name!"

"Shazo Windsor!" Prince James said respectfully.

"Windsor, fourteen, South America, black scorpion?" the queen muttered as she stood up, subconsciously walking slowly back and forth on the carpet.

"Is there a picture of him?" said the Queen, turning her head suddenly.

"Your Majesty, wait a minute!" Prince James put his hand into his bosom and pulled it out, took out Xia Zuo's photo, and handed it to the Queen.

Xia Zuo looks miserable in the photo, which was taken before he was sent to prison after he was seriously injured and unconscious.

The queen took the photo and looked at it, subconsciously moved her steps to the side, her eyes flashed, her expression was inexplicable, Xia Zuo's appearance was somewhat similar to his father Charlie, of course, Charlie had to shave his beard.

"Little one......" The queen murmured in a very low voice, turned to look at Prince James, held up the picture, and asked Prince James, "Do you see who he is?"

Prince James frowned slightly, looked at the photo, and shook his head slowly, but suddenly stopped, shocked.

"Lock him up for a while, teach him some lessons, and that's it at the age of fourteen...... Charlie is really ......" The queen turned slowly, her voice getting lower and lower.

At dusk, a black-iron welded carriage galloped into England and headed straight for the First English Court, the carriage was covered with intricate inscriptions, and outside the carriage, a whole group of elite soldiers followed on foot.

Today, Billy, the former British No. 1 arms dealer, will be tried in Court No. 1.

The carriage came to an emergency stop at the entrance of the First Court in England City, and Billy, wearing a black hood and prison uniform, and shackled limbs, was ripped off the car by soldiers and brought into the courtroom.

In the courtroom, nearly 100 nobles and wealthy merchants from England City sat in the audience, and the judge made some opening remarks, then knocked down the gavel and announced that the prisoners would be taken.

Bang Bang Bang Bang ...... The sound of chains mopping the floor, Billy being carried to the judgment seat, taking off the hood on his head, his old face, cloudy eyes, and messy hair, "Billy" looked like he was going to be seventy years old.

"This isn't Billy!" a nobleman stood up and pointed at the prisoner.

Wow~ There was a commotion.

"Why not Billy?"

"How can a court make such a mistake?"

Dodo!

"Silence!" the judge said majestically with a knock on the gavel, and immediately turned his head and whispered a few words to the other judges, and then struck the gavel heavily and said, "Adjournment!"

Night, Natsusa's cabin.

Lei's hands turned into phantoms suddenly stopped, and between his hands, a dark yellow energy converter the size of an adult's fist floated, and the indicator light on it flashed with red light, constantly beating, and the strange rhythm was obviously just a machine, but it gave people the illusion that it was a life.

"Can you use it?" asked Eve, who was standing nearby.

"Hmm!" Lei responded, stood up, and the disguised black robe on his chest quickly transformed, revealing the armor inside, and the cuirass part opened in turn, revealing the most core part.

Next to the source of energy, there was a fist-sized gap, Lei Bi stroked, slowly stuffed the new energy converter in, "click" sound, some extended metal buckles stuck the energy converter, the armor on Lei's chest quickly retracted, back to the original state.

"You, very different!" Eve looked at Ray, her expression different.

She had seen androids, and she had seen too many things in her long life, although she had only seen androids twice in them, but she could see that Ray was very different from the androids she had seen, not because of Thunder's strength, but to put it bluntly, it was structure.

Ray is really very special, a construction that has never been seen before.

Ray was noncommittal about Eve's words, and he didn't know what other androids looked like.

"Inform Fanny, let's act!" said Ray in a deep voice.

Fifteen minutes later, on the top of the low hill in the west of England City, the cool breeze blows, and you can stand on the top of the hill to overlook the beautiful night view of the whole English City, with bright lights and constant hustle and bustle.

"Why are you here?" asked Eve, puzzled.

Ray scratched his head and glanced at Eve, and said in a low voice, "Stay away!"

Eve did so, dodged and withdrew more than ten meters, but still looked at Lei in confusion, Lei said very little, some things did not ask him, he never said, even if he asked.

A few meters away from Lei's side was an iron tower connected to a high-voltage cable, he took a few steps to the side, jumped suddenly, and jumped on the top of the iron tower, about thirty meters above the ground.

Boom!

A punch hit the electric box on the iron tower, "pop" twice, the current burst out of the electric box, followed by a crackling sound, countless electric sparks hit Lei's body, the entire tower is flashing electric sparks, countless thick currents converge to the thunder, Lei's whole person is shrouded in blue and white, and his body is constantly shaking. (To be continued......)
