honor me as god

Chapter 82 The Trial Begins

On the morning of the 4th, the investigation team from Fengyunguan, the capital of the beacon province, finally arrived.

At the gate of the city, a luxury carriage drove in, and the towed animal was a top-quality colt from outside the desert pass, with dark clouds and snow.

This kind of horse is completely black, with no stray hair except for its frost-white hooves. Its speed is as fast as lightning, it can travel thousands of miles a day, and its body is extremely stable, with little bumps during running. It is mostly assembled in top cavalry troops and noble carriages.

On the top of the carriage hung the laurel flower flag and the Fengyunguan capital flag, one high and one low, shining under the golden morning sun. It is separated from the outside, making the people inside the car appear vague and hazy, as if to imply the nobility of not living with mortals.

Dusk City soldiers in a dragon-like array blocked the civilians on both sides of the street, and the carriage drove without hindrance. The residents who passed by saw the king flag and the capital flag and nodded to them.

Occasionally, a few children stared at this carriage, which only nobles could own, with innocent and longing eyes, but their heads were quickly pressed by their parents, and they bowed their heads together to show humility.

Chino and Rezakhal were already waiting here, and went up to them after the carriage stopped.

The curtain was opened, and three people were sitting inside. An old man with white hair said: "Administrator Chino, you should wait at the courthouse first. We have to ask the civilians and the city defense army to obtain evidence, which may take a little bit of money. time."

Rezakhal leaned over to Chino's ear and reminded in a low voice, "Bati Doguland, descendant of the royal family, hereditary marquis, provincial judge of Fengyunguan, and in charge of all courts in Beacon Fire Province. "

Chino nodded to Barty: "Lord Barty, welcome your arrival."

Barty nodded in response, and without saying much, let Resakhal get in the car, and then motioned for the driver to set off.

When the curtain fell, for a split second, Kino felt the cold gaze from someone inside, and the breath carried a strong hostility and was extremely unfriendly.

Four Fengyunguan officials began to collect evidence separately, visited witnesses in the civilian and military, and conducted on-the-spot surveys on the explosion site.

Rezakhal was the first to complete the collection of evidence, and he came to the courthouse at noon. Batty and others were still investigating, and it should take some time.

While waiting, Chino and Rezakhal started chatting.

The compulsory course for professional processors includes the item "communication". In order to approach their goals, they often need to talk to and win over many people, and communication skills are essential.

Like the one in the movie, the idiot who puts on a Sima face and doesn't speak much, but almost writes "I'm a bad guy" on his face, will most likely be eliminated during training.

Chino rarely takes communication classes, not because he doesn't want to, but because he doesn't need it.

He is a musical artist and performer with many "masks".

Compared with most emotionless processors, Chino's external emotions are extremely rich, and he is naturally good at talking. He will wear different "masks" to deal with different people. His communication skills are like most of his processor skills. Always number one in the organization, stronger than Alice.

The beautiful face, amber eyes, and friendly smiling lips are extremely lethal to any gender, and a casual smile will accumulate favorability in the other party's heart.

No way, good-looking people are so unpretentious when they communicate with each other.

Under Chino's guidance, Rezakhal had a great conversation with him, and they soon started talking.

Chatting and chatting, Chino found a very interesting thing. Although this dragon knight with a height of more than 2 meters has a rough face, he likes music very much.

It just so happened that there was a musical instrument store opposite the court, and the invention of musical instruments in this world was relatively advanced, and there was already an instrument like the piano.

Anyway, waiting is waiting, nothing to do, Kino simply gave Lesakhal a while.

After asking the owner's permission, Kino sat in front of the public piano, his slender fingers danced like a fairy, and the beautiful and ethereal melodies filled the surroundings.

This is the first movement of Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata". It is a level 6 piece. The soothing melody seems not difficult, but it is not easy to play well.

The middle part of this movement is just a background. When playing, it should be free of emotion. The center of gravity of the melody must be on the four or five fingers of the right hand. The intensity must not be biased and must be precise. finger independence.

Although there are music masters in this world, when Beethoven's music comes out, it's a dimensional blow.

What's more, Chino himself is an artist who is proficient in the piano. He passed the Emperor's Performance Grade 148 with [-] points in his previous life, and he can control any piece of music with ease.

There were more and more onlookers, and several bards who were proficient in musical rhythms lost their minds. They closed their eyes and immersed themselves in the melodious music.

Under Kino's finger, the sound of the piano carried a gentle sadness, but it was suddenly mixed with an indescribable beauty, awakening the most lingering affection in the past, as if to leave the memory behind in time.

As the final sound of the piano settled, there was silence around for a long time, and no one spoke, as if afraid of breaking the silence.

Interestingly, this round of playing gave Chino more than 800 respect points, most of which came from Rezakhal and the music-savvy bard.

I don't know how long it took until the aftertaste slowly faded, and Rezakhal opened his eyes and asked absently, "I have never heard such a beautiful piece of music. Did you write this?!"

Chino smiled and said: "From a very young age, I have often met a musician in my dreams, listened religiously to the melody he played, and recorded it after waking up from the dream. So, it is not me who composed it. I am just a humble inheritor.”

Rezakhal couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's a miracle that there is such a thing! What is this piece of music called? Did the musician ever tell you his name?"

Chino: "The musician in the dream told me that the piece was called "Moonlight Sonata" and his name was Ludwig van Beethoven."

"God is on top, this Ludwig should be among the nine gods, haha. Speaking of which, you have the same middle name as him. This may be a wonderful fate." Rezakhal seemed to think of something. He smiled and said, "You and the "Nine Princesses" have the same middle names, maybe one day we should introduce each other, she is also obsessed with music, you will definitely have a common topic. "

As soon as the voice fell, a call came from a distance: "Two, please come over, we should start."

The two turned their heads and saw that Barty and others had completed the evidence collection.

Rezakhal patted Chino on the shoulder and said deeply, "Get through this. When you come out, please teach me the score of this piece of music. I want to play it for my daughter."

Chino: "I'm very happy~"

The two entered the main court of the trial court, surrounded by guards.

Chino was standing in the dock, and the four people in charge of the trial were sitting on the stage, besides Bhatti, Resakhal, and a man with a goatee named Jashan, who was also an administrator, Heh. The alchemist of the Qi family, and the president of the Fengyunguan Alchemy Association.

The last woman with deep nasolabial lines on her face must be Brooke's sister, Erin Troy.

Just as the soldiers accompanying the investigation team were about to handcuff Kino, Rezakhal raised his hand to stop him: "Don't handcuff, this is an investigation, not a trial. Kino is still the Dusk City administrator, and he should have someone corresponding to his identity. Treatment. What do you say, Lord Barty?"

Barty nodded to the soldiers, who nodded and stepped back.

Chino smiled: "Thank you."

This smile hurt Irene, she said coldly: "So many people died, you can still laugh?"

Chino blinked: "For the dead, I think they would rather see a smile on the face of the living than a frown, don't they?"

"You?!" Irene thought that this guy would talk back, and immediately slapped the table.

"Silence." Barty stopped Irene, then looked at Chino, "Administrator Chino, Irene's younger brother died at your banquet, her anger towards you is understandable. So, I hope you will cooperate with us. investigation."

Chino: "What do you ask, what do I answer."

Barty: "Very well, then let's start directly. First of all, please explain what arrangements you made before and after the Divine Grace feast on the 30th."

This question is easy to answer, and Chino directly stated that all his arrangements are normal procedures, and there is nothing suspicious.

The only thing he concealed was the large amount of gunpowder previously hidden in the basement.

They are like icebergs under water, bringing some truth out of the water for people to see, but also burying more truth.

After hearing this, Barty continued: "The administrator next to me, Jashan Hedge, is an alchemist. During the investigation and evidence collection just now, he found some kind of gunpowder residue at the explosion site. After preliminary analysis, it was not ours. The alchemy of this world. If I understand correctly, this should be the weapon used by the extraterrestrial visitors to attack the banquet, and the reason why the banquet exploded?"

Chino nodded: "Yes, this is my guess too."

"Lie!" Irene shouted sharply, she stared at Chino's amber pupils, her voice was full of chills, "He's lying!"
