I'm really the captain of the flying Henan people.

Chapter 84 The Old Match Boy (For First Order)
In the closed interrogation room, a lonely magic lamp was lit, shaking, and the chaotic light and shadow made people depressed.

"Cheng Shifei, you admit your crime now, hand over the stolen books, and still have a chance to get a reduced sentence!"

The pointer on the magic compass precisely aimed at the suspect on the seat. The scar-faced inspector glanced at the compass, then spread out the file and exhorted him coldly.

Chen Changan was handcuffed on the iron window, and teased:
"I have never stolen any books, Mr. Inspector, do you have any evidence? I am a very good citizen!"

Who asked you to limit the spread of alchemy knowledge? All alchemy books are covered, and the price of a book is as high as ten to thirty inals, which is ridiculously expensive!
Since he can't go whoring for free, he can only steal.

Bah, it's plagiarism!

So, accidentally, he stole a little more.

"Don't play tricks on me!"

Dao Scar showed an angry look on his face, and shouted violently:

"The compass can locate the smell of stolen items. Of the thousands of people on the street, only you have the smell of all the stolen books! Cheng Zhengfei, you still say you didn't steal the books!?"

Chen Changan said with an innocent face: "Master Prosecutor, I have read a lot of books. I have come into contact with many books in the library, so it's not surprising."

The corners of Scarface's mouth twitched, and asked:
"Then why did you run away when you saw us?"

Chen Chang'an became more and more calm. It didn't look like he was arrested, but rather like rich people from the Beacon Country who occasionally went to the detention center for vacation and turned against the guests:

"I'm running and exercising, when did I run away?"

The scar face slammed on the table, the corners of his eyes jumped angrily and said:
"Honestly, you are not a resident of Merlin City at all, you are an outsider, you went to the City of Merlin to exercise, what a joke, your lies are ridiculous! Tell me! What is your purpose of stealing books?"

Chen Changan raised his chin and looked at the examiner with adoring eyes... The female examiner who was in charge of recording behind him smiled and said:

"I am an ordinary traveler, and reading is the only entertainment during the trip. At the moment of disembarking, in this land of wisdom and knowledge, even the air is sweet and filled with the fragrance of books. Qingxiang, this is why I came to the City of Merlin, isn't it?"

Scarface couldn't say anything to refute for a while, but his years of experience in handling cases told him that the prey in front of him was an undoubted criminal, and said with a sneer:

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, you are a traveler, right? I will imprison you for the maximum sentence for theft. As long as no one releases you on bail, you will not be able to get out."

Chen Changan was slightly silent, "Can I bail myself out?"

"Pfft~"

The female examiner couldn't help laughing.

Scarface had no time to worry about beating his colleagues. It was a rare time when he gained the upper hand in front of Chen Changan, and said comfortably:

"It's still the same sentence, frankness is lenient, resistance is strict, whether you listen or not, it's your own business."

at this time.

Scarface suddenly saw a trace of mockery on the other side.

The corners of Chen Chang'an's mouth rose slightly. As a criminal who wanted to make a fortune, the first thing he did when he entered the library was to study law. He said calmly:

"I'm not scared. Do you really think I don't understand the laws of the City of Merlin? "The Law of Merlin Stone" clearly states that the person in charge of the review will pay an Iraqi for every day that a person with insufficient evidence stays in the detention center. Gnar, the maximum sentence for theft is 1001 nights, can you really afford that?"

The female prosecutor's face paled in an instant. She had never heard of the "Mei Lin Stone Law", but felt that what Chen Chang'an said was true.

Scarface also bit the bullet, pretending to be calm and saying:

"This money, of course, is spent by the city's finances. Does it have anything to do with us?"

Chen Changan smiled without saying a word.

Inar, as an ancient currency that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, has a strong currency value.

Even in the city of Meilin more than 1 years ago, the social structure was sound, and the labor cost was much higher than that of Shili Murat Village, which was enough to pay the price of one hour of general health care, with no restrictions on men and women, and gender freedom.

Leniency for confession, prison time; strict resistance, paid prison...just wait until the two prosecutors are unable to pay compensation for wrongful judgment, he can get out of prison with a small amount of Inar's glory.

Scarface lost interest in continuing the interrogation, so Chen Changan was taken to the legendary detention center.

The strange thing is that he was even assigned a prison mate. The middle-aged man brushed his bangs on the top of his head and said with a smile:

"Brother, have you stolen too?"

why do you say...

Chen Chang'an said righteously:

"I was imprisoned here because of a mistake in the law of the City of Merlin, because the incompetent officials couldn't find the criminals, and forcibly beat up a helpless traveler like me..."

The scar-faced inspector's face darkened immediately, and he said angrily:

"Stay well, you!"

Chen Changan grinned, walked into the cell, lay leisurely on the ground, waved to Scarface and said:
"Paid prison."

The scarred face turned black charcoal, and after glaring at him, he left without saying a word.

The middle-aged man wondered: "Brother, what's the matter with the paid prison?"

Chen Chang'an had no intention of going against the entire censor system, so he explained casually:
"The inspector said, just bring me some snacks."

As the earliest law of the City of Merlin, "Mei Lin Shi Zhong Law" has many flaws. The successor city lord did not choose to abolish the old law, but added a large number of other laws to improve it, and a large number of loopholes were filled.

Only with regard to the censorship regulations, the rich and powerful spent great efforts to keep them, and secretly suppressed the dissemination of "Mei Lin Shi Zhong Lv", only the big library can be kept.

The middle-aged man nodded, and then said happily:

"That scarred face just now, his face turned black with anger, I thought you caught him?"

Chen Changan changed the topic, smiled and said:

"Brother, how did you get in here?"

The middle-aged man was slightly annoyed, "I used to be a match seller in the city. People call me an old match boy. The day before yesterday I found that the matches burned faster. Could it be that the workshop gave a batch of defective products? Is it reasonable that the master magician of the workshop arrested me?"

Matches burn faster?

Chen Changan frowned, feeling that things were not that simple.

If it was just a defective product, it would not be necessary to arrest the cooperative vendors.

Da da da... Chen Changan tapped on the floor tiles, and suddenly recalled the colorful splendor shown to him by the magician Li Ao.

There seems to be some red brilliance, which is separated from the colorful brilliance.

Redshift phenomenon?

No.

This is a world dominated by magic.

Chen Changan straightened up, thinking of a possibility.

The essence of the elemental tide is that the concentration of magic power increases, and the magic power self-differentiates into more different elements, which reduces the difficulty of magicians in casting spells.

In other words.

The fire element has begun to separate?
