Arknights is too real, right?
Chapter 664 Royal Court
I don't know how long it took, but just when Xia Feng was shaking so hard in the car that he almost vomited, the car finally stopped.
"Squeak!"
The iron door of the carriage was opened.
After Xia Feng jumped down with handcuffs on, sure enough, it was already dark.
"Where are we? Are we still in Victoria?"
"Come on, this is Londinium."
Then Xia Feng found out that his current location was in northern Victoria. The custody vehicle ran for a whole day and took him to Londinium, the capital of Victoria far away from Happy City.
The night sky was dark, with no stars or moon visible.
Xia Feng was escorted into a large, heavily guarded courtyard by a dozen strong soldiers. From the outside, it looked like a prison.
But it is different from an ordinary prison. The buildings around the courtyard are quite luxuriously decorated and have a strong Victorian style. Except for the guards standing guard on the watchtowers at the four corners, the courtyard is deserted.
Later, Xia Feng learned that this place that coexists with dignity and luxury was called the "Victoria Royal Detention Center".
As the name suggests, this is a place where criminal suspects are imprisoned, waiting for the court's judgment. But unlike ordinary detention centers, this place only houses aristocrats suspected of cases.
In the country of Victoria, there is no such thing as the emperor committing the same crime as the common people. Of course, this does not mean that certain groups of people can break the law casually. The royal family has special laws to deal with special prisoners.
The functions of the Royal Court are.
Judgment and trial of criminals with special status, including but not limited to members of the nobility of all classes, non-Victorian citizens with sensitive status, members of the royal family, imperial officials above the municipal level, and imperial officers above the rank of major general.
Because of their different identities, the Royal Court will consider many factors when sentencing the suspects.
For example, the right to exercise noble privileges, the right to make temporary decisions on secret operations in the military region, etc. will also be given a lighter or heavier judgment based on family history and past resume.
To be honest, Xia Feng didn't know why he was brought to the Royal Court. Theoretically speaking, he was not a real nobleman yet.
At the same time, he is not a soldier.
The director of the Inspectorate who had just arrested him at the Royal Academy said that he had been charged with several crimes.
As for whether he had committed a crime, according to Victoria's laws, he should have committed a crime, and there were quite a few. However, Xia Feng still couldn't figure out what exactly this "number of crimes" included.
And judging from the fact that he will be brought to the Royal Court, other nobles should be involved.
Before the handover, the director of the Supervision Office who had arrested him during the day walked up to Xia Feng and whispered a reminder.
"Xia Feng, I know you are not an ordinary person, but I advise you not to seek death on your own. This is Londinium. Two detachments of the Central Army are stationed near this detention center, and there are a total of 400,000 regular troops outside the city."
Later, Xia Feng was handed over to the people here.
After confiscating weapons, mobile phones, wallets and other personal belongings, Xia Feng was imprisoned in a separate room in the [Royal Detention Center].
This is a single room located on the fourth floor.
His handcuffs have been lifted. Of course, it doesn't matter to him whether they are lifted or not. He has no intention of escaping from prison anyway.
This is not Longmen, but his hometown, Victoria. As long as he is not sentenced to death in a daze, he will still have a chance to turn around.
But if he escapes from prison, it can basically be declared that Black Feather will be disbanded on the spot, and everything he has done before will be in vain.
The reason why General Grissom called him at the last moment proved that this matter had been noticed. There was no doubt that this was a conspiracy specially planned and targeted against him.
Xia Feng fell onto the cold bed, a deep sense of exhaustion spreading throughout his body.
In fact, now that I calm down and think about it, although Maren Lege tricked him, the person who really wanted to mess with him was not Maren Lege, because the Maren family had no grudge against him.
The people who came to arrest him were from the Inspectorate, and the current head of the Cape family was the Imperial Inspector General. However, there was a contradiction here.
That is, if the Capet family wants to mess with him, Mullenleg will never cooperate, because the Mullen family and the Capet family are overt and covert political enemies.
This proves that because he slapped Kahn into a pig's head before, the Capet family may have played a role in this conspiracy, but they were not the masterminds behind it.
This is his rough judgment based on the current information.
In the country of Victoria, although the Office of Inspector General has huge functions, it cannot cover the sky with one hand.
Besides, he is still the champion of the swordsmanship competition, so even if he commits a crime, he should deal with it in a low-key manner.
To blatantly attack him as the champion at such a tense moment with Ursus, unless the royal family acquiesces, otherwise, this person has to be extremely powerful.
Xia Feng lay on the bed and took a deep breath, temporarily putting aside the things that were bothering him.
In any case, he must first prepare for the worst outcome, that is, maintain his strength.
Life is really wonderful. This morning, he was calmly drinking tea in a barbecue restaurant. In the evening, he was locked up in the Royal Detention Center in the north. He even had to prepare for the most exciting things.
It's like a roller coaster ride.
Lying on the bed, Xia Fengzai observed the room. The infrastructure of the room was much better than that of Longmen Prison, but no matter how good the conditions were, a prison was still a prison.
He gave a helpless smile, it seemed that his prison sentence this year was not over yet.
At this moment, intermittent sobbing came from outside the room, as if someone was crying.
"Who?"
The cries grew quieter, but no one responded.
Xia Feng got up from the bed and walked to the iron railing on the outside. He scratched the iron railing with his hands and looked towards the source of the sobs.
Diagonally across from his room, there was another closed room, in which a middle-aged woman wearing a fur coat was sitting.
This woman's hair was meticulously tied and covered with exquisite headdresses. Looking at her sobbing slightly, she seemed very depressed.
Of course, it would be strange not to feel depressed while being locked up here.
Although Xia Feng is also very depressed now, he seems to be less depressed when he sees someone who is more depressed than him.
Leaning on the iron railing, Xia Feng shouted to the noble woman.
"Sister, don't cry. It's not like I'm going to the execution ground. I didn't even cry."
After hearing Xia Feng's words, the lady raised her head and shouted emotionally.
"Bah, bah, bah, why are you going to the execution ground? Do you know how to speak? Wuwuwu, I want to go home, Wuwuwu."
Xia Feng sighed. This eldest sister looked very rich, but when she got here, it was obvious that the money was of no use.
"Sister, are you afraid of death?"
"Nonsense, who is not afraid of death? Bah, bah, bah, why did you mention death again? Don't talk to me."
Xia Feng sat cross-legged in front of the iron fence and chatted with the lady from a distance.
"There is nothing to be afraid of. Everyone will die eventually. It's just a matter of time. Everything will eventually come to an end. I think I am very lucky to be alive until now."
The lady stared with eyes red from crying.
"Can you stop being so stubborn? We are all nobles after all. Can you have some etiquette?"
Xia Feng shrugged his shoulders.
"This may disappoint you, I am not a noble yet."
The lady was stunned.
"Ah? Then why are you locked up in the Royal Detention Center?"
"Maybe. It's because I want to become a noble."
