Your white moonlight is so beautiful

Things got bigger and bigger like a snowball, and the shark made another public appearance before the trial.

The conflicts among the interstellar races became fierce, and all eyes were on Nan Ruoyu, who challenged the highest secular and religious power at the same time.

He was the first pure-blooded orc to be judged by humans, and even the orcs paid attention to this matter.

The Tianchen Empire even publicly stated: The friendship between the Dragon Clan and the Merman will last forever, and Nan Ruoyu is welcome to leave the nationality of the Noah Empire. If necessary, they don't mind fighting another battle to fully rescue the Merman Race in the sea area of ​​​​the empire.

The senior military officers of the Noah Empire were deeply angry about this, and directly pressed the 5A-class warships to the border star field for military exercises.Not to be outdone, the leaders of the Tianchen Empire also dispatched 6000 million armed dragon warriors to patrol the border.

War is on the verge of breaking out again.

The United Kingdom of Beasts, which has established diplomatic relations with the Empire of Man, remained silent during the confrontation. The Zerg took the opportunity to accuse Nan Ruoyu, as a new citizen, of not abiding by human laws and religious customs, intensifying racial conflicts, and making the entire Beastman race unlucky .

What's interesting is that the Zerg Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the bug's name was Lu Qianlin, and it was the female bug with "noble temperament" who was put together by Shi Han at the commendation meeting.

In the past, there was an army of public opinion making waves, and later, the dragon clan was pressing every step of the way. With external and internal troubles and an extremely difficult Jiang Chengzhou, the aristocratic group was extremely aggrieved during this period.

But no matter how loud the noise was outside, Nan Ruoyu didn't care.

After the military department made concessions, believers and congregants no longer blocked the gate of the court to demonstrate, but reporters were indispensable.The military airship arrived at the entrance of the majestic military court, and before it stopped, the spotlights on the scene were already flashing fast.

To the disappointment of the reporters, the Merman's complexion was not as haggard as they had imagined.

When Nan Ruoyu got off the airship, there was a tall and well-armed prison guard on the left and right.

The sharp-eyed reporter immediately found an electronic shackle tied to the shark's ankle, so he raised the camera and snapped wildly.

Nan Ruoyu looked up, and the towering buildings covered the sky and the sun, and the sky above the imperial capital was interspersed with countless waterways, extending to a height beyond the reach of the eyesight, covering the entire city like a spider web, making people breathless .

A reporter began to explain the camera - "After a week of illegal detention, the reporter saw a new citizen outside the courtroom who was rumored to be trying to assassinate the crown prince due to racial conflicts. The shark's face was pale and he looked in a very bad state. Well, obviously bullied and intimidated during the detention process..."

The prison guard heard the veins twitching in his forehead.

Nan Ruoyu opened her eyes wide in surprise, and blurted out: "I didn't..."

The reporter gave him an encouraging look, and then said: "It can be seen that the new citizen is very sensitive, I hope he can maintain a stable mind during the trial later, and don't be misled by the cunning lawyer... Nan Ruoyu , your alma mater and alumni are paying close attention to this Supreme Military Court trial, please withstand the pressure and avoid outside interference as much as possible..."

Nan Ruoyu: "..."

In just a few minutes, he had a deeper understanding of the profession of a news media person.

From the beginning to the end, no one thought that the merman would assassinate the crown prince.

Nan Ruoyu's fish relationship is almost open and transparent. He attends class training, bickers with classmates, participates in project research, and even falls in love and gets married. Everything he does is observed with a magnifying glass.

Not only ordinary people observe, Sri Lanka and the imperial government are paying close attention.

When Professor Han Li heard that the students were in prison, he was so angry that he rushed from Duluth to the Imperial City overnight.

Nan Ruoyu stepped on the last step, only to see the majestic main entrance of the military court - the guards were armed with guns, the majestic and magnificent building was gray that was not black and white, and the blue and gold military emblem was dazzling.

The merman's eyes are cold.

He remembered what Shi Han said to himself: "Whether it's Cambrian or spring training, those battles are just an appetizer before the meal. What really determines the direction of the entire interstellar society and the common destiny of life forms is what you are about to face. People. That's our battleground."

Nan Ruoyu shook his head at him, "That's your battlefield,"

The adjutant snored like thunder, and Nan Ruoyu's voice was drowned out.

"My enemy has only been one from beginning to end..."

Is the writer of fate.

**

The heavy door closed slowly behind him, isolating it together with the spotlight in the distance.

The seats are full of people, there are heavily armed guards standing in the four corners, and there are snipers on the high places on standby at any time.

The moment the door was opened, all the people in the trial turned their heads.

It was the first time for most of the people to see the legendary female trouble fish with their own eyes, and soon, they found that it was a little different from the photos——

The undersea orcs all maintain the most primitive and pure innocence. The photos about Nan Ruoyu circulated on the Xingwang platform are all innocent.

But at this moment, Nan Ruoyu's expression was cold and distant, as distant as a bright moon in the sky.

People soon started whispering—

"The first time I saw him, it really scared me!"

"No wonder Master He Linwan would admit his mistake, I would also like to collect it..."

"Hush! Are you crazy, stop talking!"

……

Nan Ruoyu's eyes flicked across the entire courtroom, and few of them knew each other, but Shi Han taught him that he could quickly distinguish the function and class of the other party based on the seat and clothing——

In the center of the court is a solemn and gorgeous blue and gold military emblem, under which is the Supreme Court judge's seat, and the people sitting in that row are all wearing the military uniforms of senior officers, wearing the badges and medals of the regiments they belong to on their chests, sitting upright and dignified.

The jury was full of great nobles in purple robes, both men and women, most of them were of a certain age, and even had gray hair on their temples.

Therefore, Chu Mingyuan's small head is particularly conspicuous inside.

Seeing the little lord of Sri Lanka, Nan Ruoyu was slightly taken aback.

The little emperor frowned, seeing the merman looking at him, he let out a "hum" from his nose, and turned his eyes away from him.

Nan Ruoyu also saw her mentor.

Han Li's plaid suit jacket, which has remained unchanged all year round, is pinned with a golden medal with a lot of background.

It is said that this is the "Highest Interstellar Science and Technology Medal", representing the highest achievement in a certain scientific and technological field within the interstellar range, and it is a lifelong honor, which even the king cannot take back.

If it weren't for Han Li's early abandonment of the military quantum communication technology project, insisting on making the "butterfly effect model", and doing it for decades, almost completely breaking away from the mainstream scientific research circle, he would not have been reduced to the situation of teaching in military schools.

Nan Ruoyu finally remembered that she hadn't handed in her homework, so she blinked innocently.

After entering the project team for one semester, Yuren has become the main member of the chaos model research project.Nan Ruoyu lost contact, and the chaos model project team almost stopped.

No wonder Han Li looked at him with resentment in his eyes.

The coughing sound echoed in the silent courtroom, calling all the tranced people back to reality.

Surprised eyes gathered on Jiang Chengzhou again.

"Are you planning to hold a memorial service before the trial to commemorate it collectively?" Jiang Chengzhou looked down at his pocket watch and said, "It's been 319.32 seconds overtime, everyone is very busy."

Next to Jiang Chengzhou was Principal Zhang Xianbing of the Duluth Military Academy.

The headmaster wiped off his sweat, and silently swallowed the bitterness in his chest: It is said that a strong dragon does not overwhelm a snake, so how can Jiang Chengzhou be so difficult to deal with the imperial capital far away in the sky?

Since the Regent period, Duluth Military Academy has been infiltrated by Sri Lanka from top to bottom.As the old saying goes, Zhang Xianbing has taken so many benefits from raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a short time. Now it's his turn to turn a blind eye.

He pretended not to know about the anonymous post on the campus forum and let it go on purpose.

The military department asked Duluth to hand over the names of the students who posted the post, but Zhang Xianbing refused on the grounds that "it did not violate the freedom of speech on campus." All the pressure was borne by the principal alone.

In the auditorium, the red costumes of the Catholic Church were very eye-catching, but compared to the fanatical believers, the church did not seem to be particularly active in responding to the case of condemning the Merman.

The most interesting thing is the plaintiff's seat.

Sitting there was not the prosecutor of the empire, but the eleventh prince, Gallie Leslie Oliveira.

Jialie didn't look up the whole time, just sat in his seat and lost his mind.Sitting next to him was the royal spokesman who was full of energy. He didn't pay attention to the sharks like the others in the courtroom. He only cared about sorting out the evidence in his hand, looking confident.

The poor prosecutor was pushed to the edge of the corner, without any sense of existence.

Nan Ruoyu walked to the dock, and a fluorescent blue floating light screen rose in front of him, which was used to present written materials.

The courtroom became silent again.

Xiang Zhiyuan signaled to the court recorder: "Then let's start."

The court recorder typed the first type on the virtual keyboard, and the live broadcast of the court record on the Xingwang platform officially began.

**

Netizens are all waiting in front of the optical brain today, waiting for the trial record to be released simultaneously, until the first line of words appears on the optical screen: [...the prosecutor read the indictment, the defendant Yu refused to admit all the charges...]

Discussion from the first sentence to the sky -

[Three generations share the same bed]: The accused fish is actually kinda cute... (*/ω＼*)

[Say you are punished, you will be punished]: Is there no other word to use on such a serious occasion?

[Big man all over the body]: The accused shark?

[Nicholas Zhao Si]: Help, help... It seems that the fish tail will be swayed in the next second!

[Prayer of a girl with hair loss]: A blood letter from one person demands an underwater court trial and respects the living habits of fish!

[Crazy Bones]: 1

[Did the cat update today]: 2

【Fu Ling Suckling Pigeon Soup】: 3

……

Compared with the lively digression on the Internet, the atmosphere of the trial dropped to freezing point at the beginning of the trial.

"The assassin escaped from my mecha, which doesn't mean he was dispatched by me. I was randomly airborne with other students, and I couldn't decide which mecha I picked up."

"Ding."

The polygraph in front of the shark turned on a green light, indicating that he passed the polygraph.

Each of his answers has to be judged by the most sophisticated instruments in the entire interstellar, which is unique in the court military court of the Empire.

"According to the testimony of witnesses, you and your companions plan to meet up in the desert, but you were randomly assigned by lottery to land on the beach. How could it be such a coincidence that the assassin happened to be in ambush in the desert?!"

Nan Ruoyu said indifferently: "Don't you have to ask the military headquarters of the fourth district? How are the entry and exit checkpoints of the planet set?"

"Presumptuous! Are we interrogating you or you interrogating us!"

Nan Ruoyu was not to be outdone: "Assassins entered a planet monitored by the army to ambush, and were finally captured by the students. Who are you going to ask for the charge of dereliction of duty?"

A general on the stage slapped the table and shouted: "Zhang Xianbing! Look at your students! This is how you Duluth enforce discipline!"

Principal Zhang knew that he was going to be angered a long time ago, so he pretended to be stupid and said, "Discipline? General? Are you referring to his hair? Well, you don't know. The mermaid's hair has already cut off more than a dozen alloy scissors in our school, and the orc It has its own biological characteristics, which has been written into the observation report of the new citizen students, and submitted to the Institute of Biological Sciences of the Military Department in the first month of school, presumably Admiral Douglas should have read this report."

The admiral never expected that the little headmaster would dare to mess with him in the court trial, completely ignoring himself as an admiral.

Douglas immediately became furious: "Reporting is useless?! If you can't solve the problem, you, the principal, are incompetent!"

Jiang Chengzhou said coldly: "So if you care about it, you might as well leave the army and start a beauty salon class. The assassin has been handed over to you a long time ago, and I expect you to hand over a whereabouts report. If you can't find out, you are the leader of the investigation team." Incompetent, don't interrupt the trial."

"you--"

"You, you, the assassin has been in my hands since he was brought back to justice, and I will transfer it to your army when he arrives in Birmingham. What's the problem?"

"... Have you been asked to investigate the internal affairs? You have been thinking about how to charge Sri Lanka for so long? Then let me tell you, the sixteenth district is not a soft persimmon, let your military department squeeze it into a round , if you don't understand this matter today, don't think about leaving!"

Jiang Chengzhou cleanly turned his back on the guest, firing a series of cannonballs that made people's brains buzz.

Now that Douglas has already acted as the first bird, even if he was bombarded, he simply did not stop doing two things, saying: "I am asking the defendant, Mr. Jiang is so impatient, do you want to come up and act as his attorney?"

He obviously underestimated Jiang Chengzhou's social skills.

Hearing the words, Jiang Chengzhou stood up without hesitation, straightened the bow tie on his lapel, and said, "Since you have proposed so, I will humbly act as an agent."

For a moment, a crack appeared in the expressions of the judges.

"Nonsense." Xiang Zhiyuan couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "When the defendant attends the trial, he should be accompanied by a lawyer with corresponding qualifications. Mr. Jiang, you and I are both vulgar people from war backgrounds, so don't join in the fun."

The implication is: Do you have a certificate?Shut up without proof.

Jiang Chengzhou started to mix in the society at a young age, and the only time he was able to calm down to study was when he was learning to read on the exile star.

Jiang Haihe was his enlightenment mentor, who opened up the outside world and the mystery of the universe for Jiang Chengzhou, letting him know that there is a broader and more advanced society besides the gray mine.

Xiao Chengzhou listened so fascinated that he couldn't help but imagine what it was like outside at night.

Zhuma Jiang Fengmian said, "Don't think about it, the people outside are as cunning as the Speary rats in the mine."

The teenager was unmoved.

Jiang Fengmian saw that he couldn't persuade him, so he walked and muttered unhappily: "What's the use of father teaching these things, anyway, he can't get out, and teaching him to think will only increase the pain, it's better to be a fool who doesn't know anything all his life ..."

Time flies like a white horse, and the old man disappeared into the sea of ​​stars as soon as he turned around.

The hexagonal hero who has become a nobleman arrogantly sat on the high stool next to Nan Ruoyu.

I have seen shameless people who have never seen such a climb up the pole, General Douglas's neck was red with anger, and he yelled angrily: "Jiang Chengzhou!"

Jiang Chengzhou suddenly changed his indecency just now, and said seriously: "Call me Lord Condra, Lord General, what about your discipline?"

Douglas was thrown again, and the veins on his forehead began to twitch.

Jiang Chengzhou was uncertain, turning his face faster than turning a book, and his tongue was sharp, which was really hard to resist.Just as Douglas was about to show off the curse vocabulary he had accumulated during his military career, Nan Ruoyu spoke.

Compared to Jiang Chengzhou, who was full of gunpowder, Nan Ruoyu was as calm as an outsider fish:

"Since your ministry can't prove that the assassin was indeed ordered by me, you should think about the motive of the crime, right?"

"Why don't you have a motive, you..." Douglas suddenly remembered an important matter, and immediately swallowed the words that came to his lips, and involuntarily glanced at the representatives of the Academy of Sciences in the spectators.

The fish was so cunning that it dug a hole for him to jump into.

The military had long ago discovered that Nan Ruoyu had discovered a mutated shark in the polluted sea that hadn't been dealt with in time.The mermaids have strong temperaments, so they concluded that Nan Ruoyu had sufficient motives for committing the crime.

But the experimental shark involved a lot, the admiral turned his eyes and said: "Don't change the subject, the assassin is temporarily unable to testify in court due to technical problems, but we have other witnesses who can prove that this assassin has a close relationship with you... ..."

He thought he saw through the opponent's little trick, and waited for that face to show an expression of exasperation.

But seeing Nan Ruoyu evoked a cold smile, the expression on his heart made people's heart beat wildly:

"In this case, I will apply for a witness to appear in court."

**

Everything that happened in the courtroom was synchronized on the Xingwang platform.

Netizens have already digressed to "what are the squeamish orc races", a new record has drawn everyone's attention——

[Li Liyuan Shangpu]: Are there any witnesses?

[Going up the mountain to grab bamboo shoots]: Have a motive?

[Please tell me to code when you see me]: How did you bypass it?I also want to know the reason why the accused fish stabbed the crown prince.

[I am not a poor man]: Excuse me, how many useless nobles with relatives have been raised by the military?Military spending is increasing year by year, but the border has not stopped for a moment. Where is the construction?Didn't they say last year that they were planning to reduce military spending and disarm? ! (has been sealed)

[Enthusiastic netizen 123]: The account is banned, oh shit. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

[Say you are punished, you will be punished]: Oh, excuse me. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

……

Witnesses were quickly brought into the courtroom.

Nan Ruoyu saw the haggard Ren Qiuhan.

Ren Qiuhan didn't look at him, to be precise, Ren Qiuhan didn't look at anyone.

The girl's appearance is sweet and well-behaved, but at this time she is shivering like a frozen quail on the treetops in winter, I feel pity.

Nan Ruoyu was not very surprised.

The voice of the prosecutor echoed in the trial court: "Witnesses are asked to swear to the sacred military emblem. Your testimony is fair and accurate. No one can coerce your will. If there is any perjury, you will be punished and judged by the empire most severely! "

When Ren Qiuhan heard the last sentence, his thin body trembled visibly.

It took a long time for the censor to speak before she gradually raised her head. Under the eyes of everyone, she moved her lips and said slowly: "...I swear to the sacred military emblem that my testimony is fair and accurate, and no one can coerce my will , if there is any perjury, I am willing to accept the most severe punishment and trial..."

Admiral Douglas said with satisfaction: "Now, please repeat your testimony."

Ren Qiuhan remained silent as if he had been frightened.

The admiral emphasized his tone: "The witnesses are asked to repeat their testimony."

Ren Qiuhan raised his head to look at the judge's bench in horror, then quickly lowered his head, biting his lips until blood came out.

The royal family spokesman who came to the trial today was named Ivanov. He pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose impatiently, realizing that the female student seemed to be afraid of someone.

His eyes fell on each of the senior generals in the trial seat one by one, and he suddenly realized something, proudly raised the corners of his lips, and said, "Why don't you dare to say it? Is it because there are people involved in it?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Ren Qiuhan trembled in fear.

There was an uproar downstairs.

"Who is who?"

"do not know."

"Is there really someone from the military involved?"

"Then this matter is serious!"

……

Listening to the discussion in the audience, Jia Lie frowned and said, "If you have anything to say, hurry up and don't go around here."

Ivanov also encouraged in a warm voice: "If it is the person in this trial, you can apply for his withdrawal. This is your legal right."

He paused, and added: "Even if it's a panel of judges or a jury."

These words seemed to give Ren Qiuhan great courage, but after a long time the girl still remained silent.

Ivanov's patience was also gradually exhausted. He simply gave up on the guidance and said clearly: "Actually, everyone present has read Ms. Ren's written testimony, and they must have known it by heart after reading it."

"There are quite a few students involved in this matter, but there is only one who is directly related to the Imperial Army."

"Marshal Xiang, what do you think of the choice Xiang Tiange made during spring training?"

The courtroom was completely silent.

Ivanov's glasses reflected a gloomy light, and he turned his head with a sneer, looking like he was watching a show.

In the eyes of many people, Xiang Zhiyuan, who holds the power of the army but is smooth and never takes sides, cannot be offended.

But for a politician like Ivanov, all forces that cannot be won over are potential political enemies.

Ivanov's family has offered him an olive branch many times, but Xiang Zhiyuan always pretends to be a fool, especially when Ivanov leans towards Prince Gale's camp, Xiang Tiange actually sided with Locke.

Xiang Zhiyuan didn't stop it, which in other people's eyes was tacit consent.

Isn't this a provocation to the Ivanov family?

Since ancient times, every politician has climbed to the top by stepping on the corpses of his colleagues.In the eyes of politicians, eradicating potential enemies at the fastest speed is their most proud achievement.

There were quite a few people who wanted to trip Xiang Zhiyuan, at this time Ren Qiuhan clearly handed out a knife, and Ivanov readily took it.

The first thing he did was to remove Xiang Zhiyuan from the judges.

Facing the sudden accusation, Xiang Zhiyuan on the judge's bench obviously didn't expect it, but he quickly calmed down and threw the question back as if practicing Tai Chi: "What do you want me to think, Your Excellency Ivanov?"

Ivanov said proudly: "Your niece knew about this from the beginning to the end, but she didn't report it to the military and let the dangerous assassin approach the two highnesses. I think, as smart as you must know, this means a lot to the king. What are you wearing?"

It means that the loyalty of soldiers has been shaken.

This is the most serious accusation, and no soldier can stand such a frame.

Watching eyes shot from all directions, and after a while, Xiang Zhiyuan exhaled, stood up and said, "I agree to resign from the position of the chief judge and accept the investigation according to the regulations after the trial, but I sincerely hope that your Excellency can clarify one point: question The loyalty of an army commander, forcing a wise ruler to choose between capable ministers, is the most stupid idea in the world."

Marshal Xiang has always spoken softly, but Ivanov was suddenly stabbed by his sharp words. When he realized it, the other party had already taken off the badge of the chief judge, walked straight off the stage, and sat in the auditorium.

Ivanov only thought that the opponent was incompetent and furious, and he generously ignored it, and even greeted the marshal in the audience with a smile.

The president temporarily resigned, and the judges had to re-elect a new president.

The new president is an old general surnamed Fu. He doesn't have much military power in his hands anymore, and he is considered highly respected-he can be blamed for it.

There were too many changes in the semi-public trial. If you don't pay attention, it's like Xiang Zhiyuan. You don't want to please anyone. If you don't do it, your family will be investigated. None of the generals who are on the rise in their careers want to show off the limelight.

General Fu has long been prepared to practice superb Tai Chi: let the royal spokesperson do all the tit-for-tat matters, and the military only needs to put on a show and remain relatively neutral.

It's a pity that the sky is not as good as one would like. It is estimated that the position of the chief judge is not well feng shui. Before his butt is hot, he sees Ren Qiuhan plopping down on his knees in front of the trial seat.

The criminal did not kneel, the witness did first.

The judges were stunned.

While they were electing a new judge, Ren Qiuhan, who had been silent for a long time, finally finished his long psychological preparation.

Just listen to her say:

"Before repeating my testimony, I want to report with my real name... the top supervisory officers of spring training, Major General Luo Wei... stole the energy costs of [-] B-level mechs for spring training!"
