My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

Several guards at the door saw Owen coming and quickly let him go.

Owen used the lock to unlock the key to Raven's cell, and the scene before him froze him in shock.

There was no one in the cell at the moment.

Raven, who was once a felon in the empire, is now missing.

Upon seeing this, Owen quickly came to the door of the cell and looked at the two guards at the door.

"Where are the prisoners inside?"

Owen suppressed the anger in his chest and asked.

"A group of knights came today and brought an order from His Majesty, saying that the raven was to be taken away and executed, so we asked them to take the raven away."

"Do you know where he was taken to be executed?"

"have no idea."

The guard shook his head.

When Owen heard this, he was so angry that he punched the wall so hard that the two guards at the door broke into cold sweat and trembled.

He was afraid that Owen's next punch would fall on him.

Thinking back to what Orson just said, Owen instantly thought of a person.

So, he went to the palace at night, preparing to meet Alsace.

However, at this time, he saw the sound of fighting coming from the palace magician's station not far away. Fireballs exploded in the air and swords struck the barrier. The original royal guards were now in civil strife and fighting. .

In Owen's eyes, only a few days had passed, but the situation in the empire had undergone earth-shaking changes.

He paused for a few seconds, then ignored the battle in the distance and insisted on heading to the palace.

However, he was stopped at the entrance of the palace.

"I'm going to see His Majesty. I have something important to discuss!" Owen said to the guard at the door in a serious tone.

But the guard just shook his head.

"I'm sorry, Sir Owen. Your Majesty is resting with the Queen now. Please don't disturb the two of them, otherwise it will be difficult for us."

Hearing what the other party said, and with such a firm tone, Owen could only turn around angrily.

The next morning, he saw Orson again.

"Am I right? Is the raven missing?"

"He has been executed."

Owen said.

He didn't sleep all night last night, and he looked much more haggard than before.

"Have you seen his body, or do you, a smart man, want to believe one side of the story? Then it seems that I am going to change my view of you."

"..."

Owen was silent.

"There is no other way. Arthas has gone crazy. At this point, he is willing to use any trump card, even using felons."

Orson said this and stood up.

"Okay, I know you don't want to believe me, so take me to the court now. I want to see what the judges are going to use to convict me."

"You don't have to go."

Owen said.

"What? But weren't you the ones who caught me here?"

Orson raised an eyebrow.

"If you go now, you will only die in vain. It is not worth risking your life for political struggle."

"So, you want to betray Arthas?"

"I will not betray the Empire."

Owen said so.

"Oh, the Empire?"

Orson said this with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"Then it seems you are quite a smart person."

Orson stood next to Owen.

"However, you should take me to the court. I am sure that they will not be able to deal with me."

"I, Orson, am not someone who will just surrender when I encounter danger."

…

On the other side, in Sherlock's room.

These days, she cooperated with Phil to record a batch of confessions, and she knew that these confessions would be used against Orson.

Once her evidence is presented in court, coupled with Alsace's management, Orson will definitely avoid trial.

However, Phil had been telling himself to trust her these days, and Sherlock could only do so.

After all, even if she refuses, those people have plenty of ways to make her speak.

When the time came in the morning, Sherlock's door was pushed open by Phil.

"Let's go, Sherlock."

Phil said so.

"Let's go? Where?"

Sherlock was very confused. She had been staying here these days and could only stay here. Phil said this, was he trying to test her?

Who knew that Phil could see Sherlock's thoughts at a glance, and she quickly said:

"I'm not testing you. It's busier outside these days and the manpower is scattered. I finally replaced all the people guarding this house with my people today."

She explained this, and then continued:

"Today they are going to use the materials I asked you to provide to convict Orson. You can rush to the court with me now before it's too late."

"But...but aren't you from the prince?"

"Don't worry about this. Anyway, if you still want to save Orson, just come with me."

Upon hearing this, Sherlock stood up quickly.

"Okay, let's go!"

Chapter 50: Another day for retrial (3.1K)

Sitting on the carriage heading to the Imperial Court, Sherlock looked at Phil in front of him and asked: "Miss Phil, didn't you say before that you were from His Highness the Prince? Why are you helping me now?"

"Well, because His Highness the Prince has now become His Majesty the Emperor, I have no one to whom I can be loyal."

Phil joked, and then explained: "Oh, actually, it doesn't matter who I am loyal to. I just know that we each get what we need now. You need to tell the truth to the judge of the court. I am also entrusted by others to do so." Keep Orson, that’s all.”

Hearing Mayfair's words, Sherlock nodded and then stopped talking.

On the other side, the Imperial Court.

Today, a very important trial is taking place in the Imperial Court.

This was the first case that the Imperial Court paid attention to after the new emperor Alsace came to the throne. At the same time, Alsace also conveyed his views to the Imperial Court.

Even so, the judges still dare not judge casually.

After all, the person he is about to judge is Orson!

Orson, the great hero of that empire.

Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that Alsace wants to eliminate his political opponents through this method, but no one dares to say anything.

The supremacy of imperial power is the only unchanging truth in the empire.

If they disobey the emperor's order, their lives will be at risk.

"Suspect Orson, can you plead guilty?"

The white-bearded justice sat on the trial bench, looked at Orson in the audience, and asked seriously.

Just now, the recorded confessions of multiple witnesses were presented, and many "perjury" produced for this case were also displayed one by one.

When Orson saw these evidences, he just laughed at Alsace's low-level methods in his heart, but he still shook his head firmly on the surface.

"Sorry, Justice, I still think that I am not guilty. These are all baseless accusations. None of them are supported by solid evidence."

"So, you just suspect that these evidences are all perjury?" the judge said in a bad tone.

"certainly."

At this moment, there were only a few people sitting in the auditorium, and they were all Alsace's confidants. In addition to monitoring Orson, they came here to go through a process and then go out to help Alsace clean up the trial. There is no problem with the process.

As for neutral people and pro-Ossen people, they can't get in at all.

Of course Orson knew their purpose, and he laughed twice disdainfully.

Owen watched the trial progress step by step, feeling anxious.

Orson could have postponed the trial today, but he insisted on coming.

If he had known this, he should have stopped Orson in the police station and waited for the Imperial Court to arrest him before releasing him.

Seeing that the process of conviction and sentencing was about to begin, Owen wanted to interrupt the trial, but at this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside.

"Hey, what are you doing? Prisoners are being tried here right now, you can't go in!"

Then, the door was pushed open, and Sherlock and Phil appeared at the door.

The people present who were supporting Alsace were stunned for a moment.

His Majesty the Emperor did not say that there would be more people coming later.

"According to the provisions of imperial law, the public has the right to observe any trial in the imperial court. Why, am I not a citizen?" Sherlock said, refuting the guard at the door, and then looked at the judge on the trial bench.

"Am I right, your honor?"

"..." Seeing that the other party had already resorted to imperial laws, the chief judge naturally couldn't say anything else.

He was already familiar with this stuff. He would know as soon as he heard whether Sherlock was talking about the above.

Then, Sherlock glanced at Orson in the dock, who also smiled and nodded towards Sherlock, with no surprise on his face, as if he had known that Sherlock would come.

Afterwards, Phil and Orson also looked at each other, showing tacit smiles to each other.

"Your Honor, I am here to prove that the evidence against Orson is all false and that someone deliberately did it to frame Orson."

The judge also heard what Sherlock meant at this time.

Is this little girl planning to "rob the law field"?

"You are Sherlock, right?" the Lord Chancellor said.

"So, as a witness, do you have anything to add?"

"Yes." Sherlock nodded, then crossed the crowd and came to the center.

"The confessions I gave you earlier were all forced by others to write down. Their purpose was to ruin Orson's reputation." Sherlock said.

"Orson has never used power for personal gain or bullied others during previous investigations, and he has never bribed me."

"Sherlock, do you know that your confession is inconsistent and you will be held accountable later?" the justice said seriously.

"I know, but the circumstances were special. If I didn't do this, they were prepared to imprison me forever."

"Then you should say, who was the person who imprisoned you and forced you to write those confessions?"

"It's His Majesty the Emperor."

Sherlock said bluntly.

"It was His Majesty the Emperor's people who forced me to write these contents, so I think they did so with His Majesty the Emperor's permission."
