Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

After closing the door with the broken bolt, Hobert said to Xio and Forsi: "Pack your things, let's move to another place to stay for two days."

Forsi asked: "Where to go?"

"Blackthorn Security Company! Quick, before they react!"

The three people brought a change of clothes or two, found some wire to screw the door shut, and left in a taxi.

After getting on the carriage, Xio asked, "What did they want to search just now? Why were they in such a hurry?"

"Of course we were searching for those two corpses." Hobert smiled and said, "I almost fell into their trick."

Xio added: "But it was the gangsters who broke into our house? We are the victims."

"That's what you say, but there is a lot of room for specific operations." Hobert said: "If you follow the habits of a lawyer, if someone dies in the family, you will definitely call the police.

"As long as the investigators determine that the two dead men were charged with home invasion and robbery, then we are acting in self-defense and can be released on bail tomorrow.

"But the problem is precisely here. According to relevant regulations: the identification of legitimate defense cannot exceed five working days. If it is legitimate defense, you can be released on bail immediately. As long as the victim's family does not initiate litigation within a month, the bail will be refunded. gold.

"If investigators have doubts about the circumstances of the case, they can file a public prosecution and a lawyer can plead not guilty."

Hobert laughed: "The other party is ready to take advantage of the 'five working days' loophole. They know that as a lawyer, it will be difficult for me to determine that I am guilty of intentional homicide during the interrogation process.

"In my opinion, it is generally very quick to determine whether it is legitimate defense.

"Now that I have this knowledge, they can use my knowledge to slow down the investigation. For example, if they want to disgust me, they can conclude that I acted in self-defense at the end of the trial in Bob's case.

"But at that time, even if I get bail, what's the use? So I can't call the police, and I can't let them find the body."

After saying that, Hobert couldn't help but smile. It was really ridiculous to play this trick with a "lawyer" like him who likes to exploit loopholes.

After the carriage was quiet for a second or two, Forsi suddenly said: "I must write this incident into a new book! This kind of battle of wits outside the court is so exciting!"

Xio nodded slightly, agreeing with his friend's words, and then thought like an afterthought: "What about the body? Where did the body go?"

Hobert said: "I used some occult methods to hide the bodies. After the trial is over, I will deal with the two bodies."

In fact, he sacrificed his body to the "Land of Disorder" by sacrificing himself.

In the eyes of Xio and Forsi, Hobert has a wealth of occult knowledge, and hiding two corpses does not seem to be too difficult for him.

The taxi arrived in front of the Blackthorn Security Company. When the three people got off the carriage, they glanced at the two carriages following behind.

They had already discovered the two carriages and knew they were being followed, but they didn't take them seriously.

Hobert walked in front and knocked on the door. He glanced at the six or seven people who got off the two carriages at the back. If these people took action here, they would be seeking death.

After knocking on the door for a minute, Loretta, whom she had met at the Obsidian Bar, yawned and opened the door. When she saw it was Hobert, she was slightly startled: "Didn't I tell you? Today is not a day to pay wages."

"I'm not here to collect my salary!" Hobert said helplessly, "Let's talk about it after we enter the house."

Loretta also saw the people standing outside and let Hobert and others into the house.

Boom~

The door is closed.

Hobert asked: "Is Captain Thomas here?"

"He had just received a report that someone had attacked Bob, and he and Borgia went over to check it out."

Hobert was stunned: "How is Bob? Is he injured?"

"No, after we met in the afternoon, two colleagues were protecting Bob. Although there was an attack, it was stopped at the beginning." Loretta said.

Hobert glanced at the lady: Does she usually like to breathe so loudly when talking?

He sat on the sofa and tried the hardness of the sofa: "We will sleep here tonight and tomorrow night."

Luo Luota looked outside the door: "There are people attacking you? These people are too rampant."

"Fortunately, I didn't block their way to make money." Hobert said with a smile: "If you feel that there are not enough manpower to protect us, I suggest you inform the 'Machine Heart'. Captain Ikanser promised that he can protect me. personal safety.”

Loretta said: "I will report to the captain when he comes back. I will go find some blankets for you guys."

Xio and Forsi, who had been following Hobert, looked at each other. Through the conversation between Hobert and Loretta, they had certainly understood that this was the official territory of the Beyonders.

This is a bit magical to them. Two wild Beyonders are now receiving the protection of official Beyonders!

After getting the blanket, Hobert pointed to the other sofa and said to Xio and Forsi, who were obviously a little restrained, "Go to sleep, we are absolutely safe here."

If someone were to attack the headquarters of the Nighthawks, that would be a good thing for Hobert. As the defendant, Arnold might not be able to appear in court the day after tomorrow.

After a night of silence, Thomas came back the next day. He was a "Spirit Witch" and a Sequence 5 of the "Sleepless One" path. He could stay up for three days and three nights without feeling sleepy.

It's just that his hairline...is much better than Dunn's.

After sleeping on the sofa all night, Hobert moved his body. Today he discovered that the bed was much more comfortable than the sofa.

Hobert and Thomas chatted for a while, and Thomas expressed the church's support for Hobert, but it was similar to Captain Ikanser's promise, except that he would ensure Hobert's safety.

After going to the bathroom to wash up briefly, Hobert put on his windbreaker and went out with Xio and Forsi who had already prepared. However, this time they had Borgia in their team to protect their safety.

Borgia is a Sequence 8, and his combat effectiveness is not as good as Hobert's, but his appearance next to Hobert is a statement of the Church of the Goddess of the Night.

I believe that as long as Arnold and the others still have sense, they will not attack Hobert at this time.

The four people rode the carriage of the Church of the Night Goddess to the residence of Viscount Gray Lint. Borgia was invited to the living room to drink tea, while Hobert and Hugh went to the study to attend an urgent "Justice League" gathering.

When he came to the study, Hobert found that there was a young man sitting behind Viscount Gray Lint. He did not expect that Viscount Gray Lint would have a new member so quickly.

Viscount Graylingt introduced: "These are Hobert, Hugh, and Fors, the other three founders of the 'Justice League'."

He said: "This is Carl Vincent, the youngest son of Count Vincent."

Thanks to [Xingchen Xueluo] for the reward.
