"this……"

The defense lawyer rubbed his eyes and looked up at Fang Lichang in surprise, suspecting that this was a joke played on them by the prosecutor.

But when he looked up, he found that Fang Lichang's face was even uglier than his own.

"Is this a top-notch dish??" Old Man Ding's eyes widened, he grabbed a few playing cards and looked at them carefully, and even stuffed some into his mouth... and then made a few loud noises,

“You can’t eat this thing either!”

On the stage,

Fang Lichang looked at the [6 of Spades] cards one after another, as if thinking of something, his pupils shrank slightly,

Then he shouted in a deep voice:

"What's going on? Where's the food??"

"This... we don't know either." The waiters also looked confused, "When we were preparing the dishes in the kitchen, there were still normal dishes... How come they turned into playing cards here?"

"I'm very sorry! We'll make a few more for you right now!" The waiter in charge reacted the fastest, apologized immediately, and then hurriedly left the banquet hall while pushing the dining carts.

Everyone looked at the [6 of Spades] dining cars going away with different expressions, and started whispering:

"What's going on? Is it an accident?"

"Accident? Who would confuse a bowl of playing cards with dishes? And there are so many dishes?"

"The most important thing is the faces of those playing cards..."

"[6 of Spades]...how could this happen?"

"..."

"Okay! It seems to be the hotel's negligence. Don't take it to heart." Fang Lichang felt the subtle change in the atmosphere and immediately raised his glass again and said a few words, trying to attract everyone's attention.

Chen Ling leaned against the unnoticed wine table and followed Fang Lichang's words expressionlessly, raising the glass, drinking it, and putting it down...

A few minutes later, the waiter came in again, sweating profusely, pushing several dining carts.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, I'm really here this time."

In order to ensure that there would be no accidents this time, the waiters checked once in the kitchen and again before entering the hall. There would be absolutely no mistakes. They pushed the dining carts to the center of the stage and looked at Fang Lichang.

Fang Lichang glanced at the dining cars and smiled, "Okay, let's raise our glasses again and wish the verdict a complete success."

Chen Ling smiled and raised her wine glass. At the same time, she gently shook her right hand in her pocket, and a piece of metal silently replaced the light switch.

Snapped--!

The moment the waiters opened the metal cover, the bright light suddenly short-circuited and exploded. After a crisp explosion, the entire hall fell into darkness!

Pale candles surrounded everyone, and the flickering candlelight reflected the slowly raised metal cover. Before everyone could recover from the shock of the lamp being destroyed, someone saw something on the dinner plate through the dim candlelight. The pupils suddenly contracted!

"[6 of Spades]...or [6 of Spades]!!!"

Everyone was shocked to see that there were still the same playing cards on the dinner plate as before, and they were so full that they were almost overflowing!

If the first time they saw the playing cards, everyone was just a little suspicious and frightened, but the second time they saw the playing cards, it completely shattered everyone's original luck. Combined with the sudden extinguishing of the lights, an extremely The thrilling atmosphere begins to spread on the top floor!

"Are you trying to trick me on purpose??!" Fang Lichang's face turned pale. He stared at the waiters with wide eyes, and a murderous intention spread quickly.

The waiters were completely dumbfounded. They staggered back as if they had seen a ghost. They tripped over a foot that inadvertently stretched out and fell to the ground. "Impossible...impossible!! Let's open the door. I checked it once before! Why has it changed again? There is a ghost!”

The dim candle flames danced in the wide hall, and could only illuminate this small area. Everything around was dark, as if there were hidden man-eating ghosts... In such an atmosphere, everyone's hearts were raised. In his throat, a voice trembled:

"It's [Six of Spades]... He must have known that we were using his name, so he came to trouble us!!"

"He's right here! He's taking revenge on us!!"

"We really attracted the madmen from the Twilight Society??! Those are a group of perverted demons! Who knows what he will do?!"

"Should we notify the law enforcement officials immediately? Let them arrest the person?"

"Are you crazy? We just identified Han Meng as [Six of Spades] in court, and he is still in jail! Isn't it a slap in our face to inform the law enforcement officers now??"

"Shut up, everyone!!"

Fang Lichang's voice instantly overwhelmed everyone, and his eyes swept across the entire dark banquet hall, "Pretend to be a ghost..."

Fang Lichang naturally has some strength when he can become a prosecutor. The fourth-level pressure poured out of his body and enveloped the entire hall... But even so, except for the few participants here, there were also other people in the darkness. Empty.

"No one?" Fang Lichang frowned, "Where is he hiding?"

"He...he is an invisible ghost!" A reporter recalled Chen Ling's description just now and said in horror, "He is here, but we can't see him?"

Fang Lichang snorted coldly. He was about to say something else when another reporter suddenly raised his hand!

"There's a dark shadow outside the window... there's a shadow outside the window!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone turned to look at the same time, and saw a black afterimage flashing past the huge floor-to-ceiling window that stood high in the sky.

"Want to run away?" Fang Lichang saw that he finally found the person hiding behind the scenes. A ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and he quickly followed out. As the window exploded, his figure disappeared in the blink of an eye. Disappeared under the night.

As Fang Lichang left, the howling cold wind blew in from the broken window, blowing out all the dim candlelight, and the banquet hall fell into deathly silence again.

Old man Ding and a group of reporters and lawyers just stood in the dark and cold wind, looking at each other.

After an unknown amount of time, a voice suddenly sounded.

"The prosecutor is gone and we are the only ones left here."

cluster--

Chen Ling lit a pale candle with a match, and the flickering candlelight illuminated half of his face. An undetectable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"I hope nothing unexpected happens to him... What do you think?"

The cold wind blew up many playing cards, and countless [6 of Spades] swirled in the hall with the wind. It seemed like countless ghosts were dancing lightly, or like an invisible big hand was jokingly controlling everything here...
