Chapter 113 Turmoil in the camp

Ji Xun stayed in the extra-dimensional space for more than ten days, completely unaware that there was a quarrel in the ruins camp outside.

The tavern in the ruins camp was full of hunters today.

The new hunter didn't know what happened and asked for news in the tavern.

The hunters who had stayed for a few days were angrily recounting the evil deeds of Young Master Kahn.

"Hey, the guards of the Lionheart family have been killing like crazy these days. Have you seen the corpses hanging on the small building opposite? They are all 'suspects'. It is said that the hunters and intelligence dealers who have been in contact with that space before have been arrested.

They were tortured and no one survived."

"So many suspects?"

"Suspect? Hehehe, you listened to the nonsense of those nobles. See those dozen corpses next to you? These are Lao Luo and his members of the gunfire group. They were labeled as 'suspects', killed and hung up.

"

"Ah? I know the Gunfire Group, and the leader is a good person from Laluo. Why are they involved in the assassination?"

"It has nothing to do with assassination. A female team doctor from Lao Luo's team disappeared in the camp last night. Someone saw that Master Kahn sent someone to kidnap him. And then it happened. Why do you think? Ha,

Things like this have happened frequently since that young man came to the camp."

"No one from the Hunter Guild will step in to take care of this?"

"What? The Golden Knights of the Beast Legion are here. Whoever dares to come forward now will be labeled as a 'suspect'. If you catch him, you will die. Besides, I heard that the Innocence City is about to announce an amnesty.

The higher-ups of the Hunter Guild are busy trying to secure official positions for themselves, so how can they dare to offend such a big noble? Last night, the first person Lao Luo went to was the Hunter Guild."

"By hanging so many corpses, they want to declare that the nobles have the power of life and death over our hunters."

"Haha, that young master really doesn't treat us as human beings."

"None of the nobles are damn good. If I had the ability, I would kill that bastard!"

"Shh~ don't talk nonsense. Be careful if someone hears you. You will be arrested as an accomplice of the assassin."

"."

In the tavern, the hunters looked at the corpse hanging on the small building in the distance, and they all spoke with indignation.

But completely helpless.

The golden knights of the Beast Legion were guarding the young man, suppressing him with absolute force, and no one dared to step forward.

In the corner of the tavern, there was a table of three guests sitting.

If Ji Xun were here, he would be able to recognize that these are Xie Guozhong and the other three members of the "Federal X Bureau" who had met once before.

Not long after arriving at the camp, the three of them also chose to sit in the tavern and get some news.

They originally came here to track people from the Silver Moon Sect, but instead of finding them, they heard the news.

Xie Guozhong looked like a slovenly cowboy as always. He seemed to be used to it and drank heavily.

Beside him, the two young assistants looked unhappy.

The hunters in the tavern scolded Mr. Kahn, and they also scolded them, the law enforcers.

The words "noble lackey" and "accomplice" made the two young assistants turn blue and black.

The mushroom-headed Jia Yu paused for a moment, and finally couldn't hold it back anymore, muttering: "Although most of the innocent city is made up of exiles, judging from the facts, their crimes have already been punished when they were sentenced to exile. Now Kahn has not been convicted.

Just torture and kill the suspect, which is already illegal. And those girls. If it is true, even if they are the legitimate sons of the Lionheart family, this crime is enough to send them to the gallows."

Xie Guozhong's eyes flashed as he thought of something, and he smiled and shook his head slightly.

He took another sip of wine and said nothing.

Awen, who was aside, thought about it and said: "According to federal law, the private soldiers of nobles do have the power to enforce the law. Since the people of the Lionheart family said they were looking for people who conspired to attack the nobles, as long as they insist that those people are suspected, even if they cause trouble in the federation

There is nothing anyone can do about the Supreme Court."

Mushroom Head argued: "But the fact is that he really killed someone! If nobles are above the law in this way, what is the difference between the new federal law and the dark old times? If the law cannot represent absolute justice, then what is the meaning of it?

Where?"

"."

Awen was speechless after hearing this.

The corpses outside were so dazzling that anyone who looked at them would be able to tell right from wrong.

What's more, they had already heard about Young Master Kahn's reputation in Dragon City.

After listening to the argument between the two assistants, Xie Guozhong pondered for a moment, shrugged and smiled: "So, what do you think we should do?"

Mushroom Head said seriously: "I think the truth should be investigated. If the truth is true, he should be convicted and arrested in accordance with the law. Otherwise, more innocent people will be killed."

Awen shook her head as she listened, with a hint of helplessness towards the naivety of her teammate, "Capture the direct young master of the Lionheart family? Not to mention whether they ignore us. I can guarantee that even if they really send him away

The Law Enforcement Court, he will be released on bail as soon as possible. Federal laws are biased towards the nobility. If we really have to step forward, not only will we not be able to solve the problem, we will also cause a lot of trouble for the bureau."

Mushroom argued: "We are the most authoritative law enforcers in the Federation. We should abide by fairness and justice. How can we change our position due to misfortune? We cannot say that he is a noble and we will turn a blind eye. The new federal law clearly stipulates that nobles and civilians must

Equality before the law. If you break the law, you break the law!"

"you."

Awen wanted to say something more, but her expression was troubled and she stopped speaking.

I thought to myself that my teammates were really nerds who just came out of the academy.

The two didn't argue about the outcome, but they didn't expect that Xie Guozhong laughed when he heard it and acknowledged: "Jia Yu, you are right."

The mushroom head looked at him in surprise and was greatly encouraged, "Captain."

Awen also cast a curious look.

Xie Guozhong said: "When I was young, I thought and did the same as you."

As he spoke, he didn't know what he was thinking of, and his expression became very subtle, half-smiling but not smiling.

The mushroom head asked quickly: "What happened next?"

They thought they would hear some interesting story, but they didn't expect Xie Guozhong raised his eyebrows, as if telling a cold joke, and said: "Later. Then now. You should all know Director Liu from the Eighth Precinct, right? Federal Court

Jayne, the deputy chief judge, also knows about it, right? They were my assistants just like you back then. Now one of them is the director and the other is the chief judge. And I am still the captain."

His tone was very free and easy, and he didn't feel any regret at all.

Mushroom head:"."

Awen: "."

The two assistants rolled their eyes together.

Xie Guozhong continued: "I used to be cynical like you and resented all the injustices in the world. When I graduated from Federal College, I had a dream, that is, to be a justice in the future and devote my life to a just order. Later, facts proved that.

There is no direct relationship between the two, and there is even a conflict. I insisted on the latter, so I can only be the squad leader for half my life."

The two young assistants also understood it. It seemed to be about the sophistication of people in the system.

Awen also understood and said: "The captain is too upright."

But Mushroom Head's eyes were full of darkness and he said: "Even if I have been a team member my entire life, I will still feel that right is right and wrong is wrong!"

Xie Guozhong smiled slightly when he heard this. He didn't think his statement was wrong. Instead, he nodded with some approval: "Yeah."

But he turned around and said meaningfully: "But later, I realized that even if I become a justice, I can't change anything."

The two assistants looked over doubtfully.

A gleam flashed across Xie Guozhong's eyes. He didn't tell any more stories, but said something on a transcendent level, saying: "Later I discovered that this is part of the order of the world. Just like light and darkness, where there is light, there is darkness.

Where there is order, there must be disorder. Opposites but inseparable. This is the basic rule of the operation of the universe."

As he spoke, he looked at the two assistants and said: "I can't give you the answer to the previous question. No one can give you the answer. Stick to your heart and keep going. When you stand higher, you may be able to find the answer for yourself.

"

"oh."

The two assistants were lost in thought as they listened.

"Forget it back then. Let's report the matter on the Lionheart family's side truthfully. The little law enforcement power we have is not enough for us to change anything."

Xie Guozhong smiled and had no intention of continuing, "Unless we kill the young man on the spot."

The two assistants' eyes twitched when they heard this.

This is a "lawless maniac", killing high-ranking nobles on the spot, can this be said?

Xie Guozhong did not say much more on this topic, but instead said: "Our mission this time is to pursue those guys from the Silver Moon Sect. Judging from the current development situation, the dangers in the history hidden in the 'Catastrophe'

, far exceeding the expectations of the top federal officials. Now that ancient miracles are being discovered one after another in the Old Continent, the threat of faith pollution may be more serious than expected. We really need those old believers to awaken the will of the gods.

That would be a catastrophe of civilization-ending proportions.”

When it came to business, the three of them stopped talking about Mr. Kahn.

The Old Ones are the greater threat.
