Chapter 191: Exhaustion

This has turned into a war, and on this ordinary night without any special meaning, the various conflicts that have been brewing between the wealthy families in the upper city have erupted without warning, like a terminally ill prostitute, although the appearance is still bright, but the internal organs and bones have rotted, and now they can no longer support it, and their skin begins to burst, and pus and blood are all over the ground.

And the person who stabbed the prostitute was none other than Leon.

His arrogant shouting and scolding seemed to drive the roughness of everyone's bones, so that these people found an outlet for catharsis in an instant, because these big people present were not real literati in the first place, they were just politicians, profiteers and warlords who were packaged by money as noble nobles.

The Edison family was the first to break out, the old man who was over 80 years old was also the chairman of all industries in the Indigo District, known as Old Klaus, but his temper was bigger than his grandson, and he did not have the forbearance and low-key as the commander behind the scenes, he didn't seem to notice Leon's arrogant and unreasonable scolding, but said dryly:

"Your accusations are completely nonsense, and now I can tell you unequivocally that it was our Edison family who provided the information on those weapons, which belonged to our family's own technology, and we sold them to His Excellency Zhang Yaxuan. There is also the assassination of the Left Ear family, with this skinny Asian, it is impossible to kill more than 200 people in an hour, and what your damn devil machine forced to confess cannot be used as legal evidence at all!" Old Klaus said this, and his wrinkled old face suddenly flashed a strange smile, "If I remember correctly, this decree was signed by your father himself, although he died early, but as the lord of the city, he is much more rational than you"

Others sneered in a low voice, and one of the nobles who supported Darius returned without showing weakness:

"Decrees are made by men, and they can be issued and repealed, and you must not forget that the current lord of the city is His Excellency Darius, and he can issue edicts of angelic whispers at any time. But the person who is locked up now, I heard that he is a spy sent from Asia, and he has collected all kinds of things in the past twenty years, and after starting the machine for a while, I believe that the city lord will not be stingy to ask a few more questions, I don't believe that your ass is so clean!"

The expressions of those sneering people suddenly froze on their faces, they were second-class nobles attached to the Edison family, but they were like Edison's lackeys, it can be said that every dirty business in the Blue Indigo District was handled by their own hands, and their butts were not only unclean.

Darius, who had not spoken all this time, turned pale, but he didn't even look at the old man who looked like a dried date, and his almost fire-breathing eyes kept staring at K who was standing behind Marshal Tuolan. This kid appeared suddenly in Uptown, just like his sudden appearance at the venue today, disrupting Darius's series of plans, and after his appearance, all the big and small events that happened in Uptown, there seemed to be traces of this kid. This is a dangerous guy, Darius suddenly realizes that this mysterious young marshal K is definitely not just the rumored ridiculous and dissolute brother, he will be a fierce rival, a dangerous pawn laid by Marshal Tuolan.

After scolding, K stood behind Marshal Tuolan, and began to say something to Tuolan in a hurry, but his expression was calm, ignoring the surprise and heated arguments in the audience, at this point, he was used to the chairman of the Edison family.

Marshal Tuolan listened to Leon's words in his ears, and his face also maintained the expression of the previous moment, without any change, so that the people around him could not see what they were talking about at all.

"That's enough!" Darius felt that he had endured to the limit, "No matter who you are, the hustle and bustle, the identity is unknown, you are not qualified to stand here at all" He beckoned to the commander-in-chief of the guard, "Let your people blast him out! If he resists, then throw him into the underground camp for a few days!"

It can be said that Darius can be so arrogant in this venue, but also because there are Peter Peng and his 20,000 city guards standing behind him, Darius thought about it before applying for this urgent hearing, if someone disobeys him in this venue today, then simply let Peter Peng completely stand in the light and completely eradicate those who have always looked down on Darius's family. The 2,000 city guards arranged outside are all Peterpen's core troops, and it is definitely not a problem to take down these forty or so old and decrepit wealthy old things.

Even Marshal Tuolan was no exception.

Leon paused slightly when he heard Darius's words, and he and Marshal Toran looked up at Darius at the same time.

"You have lost your mind," Marshal Tuolan said slowly, "K is the young marshal of our Tuolan family, the candidate for the next supreme commander of the army, he is certainly qualified to speak at this hearing, and, I just heard that this young marshal Zhang Yaxuan, whom you accused, has broken off his marriage to your daughter Luo Fei? and it was an hour before you made the accusation?" The more Tuo Lan spoke, the slower she became, and she bit every word clearly, making everyone present sigh with all kinds of surprise along with her narration, but everyone's most unanimous voice was: So that's the case.

Darius's face became even more distorted, and the feeling of mortal insult came back to him, he felt like a stripped bitch, being pointed at and ridiculed by the onlookers, and even several military figures who had once expressed his support for him showed questioning expressions, and Darius shouted in a torn voice in a buzzing sound in his head:

"Peterpen, get me all the damn old things! Send them all to the underground camps! And this despicable boy, this Asian, he has insulted my trust in him, he has insulted my daughter, and whatever he has done, he must die!" Darius shouted and shouted, dancing and shouting, and there was silence in the hall, and when his voice fell, the young marshal turned his head to look at the commander-in-chief of the guards, and smiled with a sunny smile:

"Peterpen, you should have something to say" His voice was not loud, but Darius was stunned, this damn K was not wrong, Peterpen should have said something, just when he first asked to blast K out, but the old fox didn't move, what the hell was he going to do?

Peter Peng moved, he nodded respectfully to Young Marshal K, raised his eyes to Darius, and said in a straight tone:

"I'm sorry, Lord Darius, but as the commander-in-chief of the Guard, my immediate boss is Marshal Tolan, not you"

The situation took a turn for the worse, and Darius looked at Peterpen in disbelief, the old friend who had drunk with him, and was even willing to accept the glamorous bribes he sent, had suddenly become someone else's subordinate, politely and resolutely rejected him, and he asked in a trembling voice:

"So, you don't think I'm being credible?"

"Do you mean us old things?" asked the elder Klaus of the Edison family slowly, "That's right, we do help the old things," the people around him sneered, and then the old man continued: " But we don't believe anything else, what everyone can see is that because of your own personal feelings, you risk provoking a war, and you must accuse a young marshal from Asia, which has endangered the fundamental interests of the upper city, even if the Darius family controls more energy, you are no longer worthy of being the lord of the city, I said, your father is much more rational than you, he may be the last respected lord of the city"

Darius only felt a turbulent cold current rushing to his head, and those guys who he called old things a moment ago looked at him with strange looks in their eyes, as if they were looking at a small animal waiting to be slaughtered.

"I'm afraid it's not up to you to decide" Outside the still open door, there was another strange voice, only this time everyone felt not surprise but trembling at the same time, and someone screamed in a low voice:

"Bishop Hugh Grant!"

Then a buzz began to spread, and the big men whispered like children,

"How could he come? How could the Eye of God know about this emergency meeting!"

"This is the headquarters of the Guards, how could the Bishop get the news?"

"Let's wait and see, it's a good show"

Hugh Grant walked slowly into the conference hall, he obviously came in a hurry, the white bishop's robe was not even covered with a red cross robe, but his soft hat was firmly covered by the white hair on the top of his head, as if to remind everyone in the hall that he was the bishop, and he was the one who decided to go to the city.

The bishop's expression was always kind, and he smiled and nodded to the familiar nobles, as if he had greeted each prayer before the beginning of each prayer service, and then his gaze looked at the striking "Angelic Whisper", as if he had just noticed the presence of the foreign object, and carefully examined the tortured man.

Leon looked at the person in Hugh Grant's observation instrument, and his heart seemed to be pinched hard, not only because the capsule was locked in Sparrow's Agfa, but he also remembered the big cross in mid-air, he couldn't help but move slightly, and took half a step forward, but a not big but very powerful hand immediately grabbed him tightly,

"Calm down," Marshal Tuolan said expressionlessly, his eyes not even looking at him. Leon stiffly stopped, and continued to stare at the smiling face that seemed to him to be very hypocritical. In fact, more than forty people in the room were looking at the bishop.

"Ah, that's really irrational," Hugh Grant finally spoke, standing next to the machine and smiling at Darius, "Miller, you're always so impulsive," he shouted the nickname of Darius, the lord of the city, and casually raised his hand and pressed it on the side of the machine,

"I think he can rest in peace, oh poor heretic"

He pressed the final death button, and by the way announced his verdict, this guy was a heretic.

There was another whisper, and at this point, everyone understood Hugh Grant's attitude, and he made it clear that he wanted to support the Darius family and put Zhang Yaxuan to death.

"Fuck, it looks like it's going to be Plan B" Leon thought a little tiredly, what an exhausting but colorful night.
