Chapter 18 Scapegoat?
At this time Wu Zhi was completely awake and shouted:
"I didn't! Not me!"

As soon as these words came out, Deng Yu frowned, hid his right hand behind his back, and nodded in the air.

Wu Zhi, who still wanted to continue shouting, felt his throat tighten and he couldn't make a sound.

At this time, there was a voice of abuse from the audience:

"You traitor, what qualifications do you have to refute!"

"It was you who killed my son!"

...

Wu Zhi could only shake his head feebly, trying to explain but couldn't make a sound.

As Deng Yu on the high platform spoke, the indignant crowd stopped cursing:

"Don't dare to speak hard, police station team!"

Suddenly a fat man squeezed out from the crowd, it was Li Zhu.

Li Zhu walked up to the high platform slowly, bowed slightly, and shouted loudly:
"According to the investigation by the police department, Wu Zhi behaved strangely since he was a child, he didn't associate with anyone of his age, and his talent was mediocre, even he didn't know how to use spiritual energy."

"Then according to the information provided by the survivors, after going to the wilderness, Wu Zhi suddenly possessed psychic powers. That power has never been heard before. Please ask the chief judge to investigate carefully."

(Spiritual energy: When you fully master the use of spiritual energy, you will get special abilities.)
Deng Yu stood on the high platform and listened to the report with a smile on his face.

Narrowing his eyes and looking around, he asked Wu Zhi loudly:
"Do you have any excuse?"

But Wu Zhi had no strength in his throat at this moment, and he couldn't even make a sound, let alone defend himself.

He could only stare at Deng Yu and shook his head in horror.

Deng Yu naturally wouldn't care about the feelings of a dying person, all of this was arranged.

Glancing at the discussion among the audience, he showed a forgiving look and said:
"Li Zhu, go ahead, make all his crimes known to the public, and let him die to understand!"

Having said that, Li Zhu nodded and continued according to the arranged script:

"After multiple checks, we roughly restored what happened."

"Prisoner Wu Zhi, who just turned eighteen this year, obviously doesn't have any extraordinary talent, yet chooses to join the Investigation Corps."

"Of course, it's not about the Survey Corps. It's just that the Survey Corps has clearly rejected his request to join the army, but he has repeatedly asked to join the army."

Then Li Zhu briefly talked about the things on the wilderness.

It is mainly aimed at [all stand up] no distinction between the enemy and the enemy, which is obviously done by Wu Zhi on purpose.

It was to make Liu Min believe in him, so that the stranger could hit him head-on and kill him.

"I encountered these things when I went out for the first time, and almost killed Captain Liu. How could there be such a coincidence?"

"The prisoner Wu Zhi didn't have any information before he was four years old. He seemed to suddenly appear overnight."

"I think everyone remembers what happened 15 years ago, and his information only started to appear after that incident."

"As for who he is, I don't think I need to say more!"

"Multiple evidences have shown that the prisoner Wu Zhi is a traitor sent by a foreign race!"

"My lord, I request that the prisoner Wu Zhi be executed immediately. This is the spirit of the investigators!"

Li Zhu talked for nearly 10 minutes, and finally stopped.

Deng Yu nodded with a smile, watching the people under the high stage staring at Wu Zhi angrily.

Apparently everyone has already identified the culprit.

Then turned to look at Bai Yi, and asked:
"Do you have any questions about the review?"

Bai Yi shook his head and said no.

Then Deng Yu looked at the people under the high platform and asked loudly:
"Where are the supervisors?"

Everyone in the audience shouted in unison:

"no!"

On the other side, Wu Zhi was completely disheartened at this moment, slumped on the stool, shaking his head weakly.

He couldn't understand why he became a prisoner, why he thought he was a traitor of a different race?

Before the age of four, he begged with his grandfather for a living.

It is precisely because of the incident 15 years ago that the population statistics began, and this information is available.

As for what happened 15 years ago, he only vaguely remembered the matter between the stranger and the fortress' senior officials.

The specifics have long been forgotten.

At this time Deng Yu smiled contemptuously, looked at Wu Zhi and asked loudly:

"Prisoner Wu Zhi, can you plead guilty?"

Wu Zhi just quietly looked at the crowd in the audience, still holding a trace of fantasy in his mind.

Liu Min said that she would come to save her!

But looking around, he didn't find Liu Min's figure.

Seeing that the other party did not answer, Deng Yu moistened his throat and pronounced the sentence:

"Since there are no objections, the presiding judge will announce the result of the trial."

"Today's trial has confirmed that Wu Zhi was an alien spy, leading to the sacrifice of hundreds of investigators."

"The verdict is as follows. Wu Zhi is sentenced to death and executed immediately!"

There was silence under the high platform, and people waited quietly.

Deng Yu turned his head with a smile, looked at Bai Yi and nodded slightly.

I saw blood-red ice crystals starting to condense behind Bai Yi, just as he was about to throw them out.

The gate of the palace was pushed open.

The light instantly shone into the dim palace.

Seeing the figure, Wu Zhi's eyes lit up, and he saw the hope of life.

Boom!
Just listen to the door slamming shut.

Lin Yu pushed Liu Min in the wheelchair and walked in.

Liu Min raised her hand and shouted loudly:
"I have objections!"

When Bai Yi saw someone retorting, he wanted to do it without stopping, so he drove the ice crystals to fly out.

But the ice crystal flew not two meters away, but fell heavily to the ground.

Bai Yi quickly looked at Deng Yu, who smiled and shook his head, thinking that the big fish had taken the bait.

Then he turned to Liu Min and asked:

"Oh? Captain Liu, shouldn't you be healing your injuries? Why are you here when you have time?"

Hearing that, Liu Min narrowed his eyes together, forming two crescents, and said sarcastically:

"I, Liu, can go wherever I want!"

"My teacher didn't take care of it, you want to take care of it?"

Everyone present took a breath when they heard this.

Who is Liu Min's teacher?

Sima Kong, the captain of the Survey Corps, is the strongest in the Black Iron Fortress!
No one in the entire fortress knew that Deng Yu, the captain of the imperial guards, was at odds with Sima Kong.

The two have looked down on each other since they were young, and when they are old, they stumbling each other in various ways.

No one dares to mention the other in front of one of them.

But now the person who mentioned it was Liu Min, one of the four extraordinary people in the Black Iron Fortress.

The corner of Deng Yu's mouth twitched slightly, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but he hid it well.

Squinting his eyes, he changed the subject:
"Oh! Captain Liu just said that he has objections?"

At this time, Lin Yu had already pushed Liu Min to the high platform where Wu Zhi was.

Liu Min smiled and made a reassuring gesture to Wu Zhi.

Then he leaned slightly, put his right hand on the handguard of the wheelchair, posed a comfortable posture, and said with a smile:
"Yep!"

"The main thing is Master Deng's actions, I really can't bear to look directly at him."

As soon as Liu Min said these words, the whole palace suddenly became noisy.

Some people reprimanded Liu Min for being unreasonable, while others said they were arrogant.

But Deng Yu on the high platform just squinted his eyes and stared at Liu Min below the high platform, and the two stared at each other across the air.

The noise in the audience became louder and louder. Deng Yu was a little unhappy and shouted loudly:

"Shut up!!"

"Liu Min, tell me, what did I do that made you unable to look directly at me?"

Seeing Deng Yu's response, Liu Min showed a smile on his face, his eyes were bent into crescent moons, and he looked like a fox.

Then he drove the wheelchair forward twice, and shouted to the audience:

"What Mr. Deng did was too impatient!"

"Is this a rush to execute the scapegoat, so that there will be no proof?"
