Gold is Justice



Chapter 240, the final question

Chapter 42

"Son... good son..."

From just now, Judas' expression has been very stubborn.

Even at the moment when he was sentenced to death, there was only a flash of astonishment in his eyes, but he did not cry.

But now, when he was hugging his son, his strong face couldn't hold back any longer, tears were streaming down, he squatted down, and hugged his son.

"You... you demons!"

Holding his child, Judas seemed to regain some self-confidence.He raised his head and shouted loudly at the three judges on the bench—

"You want to kill me today...you just want to kill me! I can't escape today...but if you want to use this method to make me surrender, I will definitely not surrender!"

"You demons...you robbed our money, robbed our land, ruined our lives, took everything from us, made our wives and children hungry every day You bastards! Don’t you want to kill me? Okay! If you want to kill, kill me!”

"But...but! Even if I die, I will go to the side of the God of Light and cry to the great god! Tell me about my grievances!"

"Do you think killing me will end the matter? Tell you, this matter will never end!"

Judas put one arm around his son, stretched out the other hand, and slowly swept across all the judges on the trial platform. Finally, he moved to the side of the rostrum, pointed steadily at Ariel, gritted his teeth, with veins on his forehead burst out, shouting—

"If you kill me, there will be tens of thousands more! Even if I die, there will be more people who will be deprived of their lives because of your viciousness. There will definitely not be a few people who want to kill you! In the future, there will be more people...more and more people will attack you! Until this city of sin is crushed to pieces! Kill all of you! Until that moment! Demons!!!"

As Judas roared, the women there cried and knelt down.She covered her face with her hands, and sobbed in pain: "Stop talking... my dear... please... stop talking... woo woo woo..."

Crying, cursing, mixed with those uneasy emotions wafted throughout the Judgment Square.

The citizens looked at the prisoner's vicious curse, and they also looked at the women's tears.Some citizens who did not lose their relatives or houses in this battle could not help feeling a little sympathetic when they saw this scene. They raised their heads to look at Ariel and the judges over there, and vaguely felt that if these robbers were really killed like this , maybe it is too cruel...

Regarding the current conflict, Ariel thought about it in her heart, let out a breath, and prepared to stand up.

But just when she was about to get up, she saw the judgment seat over there and saw Suta's face.

Although, the judge's face looks a little pale now, and his whole body seems to be trembling slightly.

But obviously, her hand holding the paladin's shield did not arouse suspicion because of this.Her eyes are still firm, her teeth are clenched slightly, and she seems to be ready.

Seeing this, Ariel thought for a while, and she sat down again when she was about to get up.

"Hey! Don't you want to sentence us to death?! Then come on! Kill me! Come on!"

With Judas taking the lead, the nine prisoners sentenced to death next to him seemed to gain courage one by one.They turned their heads and looked at their relatives. They couldn't help wiping away their tears and snot, and they also shouted together——

"We are not convinced! We are not convinced!"

"Why do you want to kill us? You are right to make us desperate, and it is wrong for us to resist?!"

"You took our jobs! You want to starve us to death! Our relatives and friends even died because of you!"

"Don't hypocritically say that you want to judge us, you are not worthy! You are not qualified!"

"We want to see the lord! We want to see our lord!!!"

Facing the scene that started to become noisy again, Citrus seemed a little impatient, she waved out one hand, and the cane whip had already taken shape.

But the next moment, that deafening sound exploded from her ears again!

Citrus hurriedly covered her ears, turned her head away, looked at the human woman holding up the tower shield and kept beating, and said, "(Fairy language) Can you be quiet?! It's so noisy!"

After the voice below was suppressed by the sound of his own shield, Suta put down the tower shield, exhaled slowly, reached out and rubbed the balance badge on his chest, and said——

"Judas, and others. You refused to accept that you were sentenced to death, and then you still feel that you have done nothing wrong. We sentenced you to death because we wanted to have a public and reasonable reason to kill you, didn't we?"

Judas hugged his son tightly, his eyes were red; "Isn't it?!"

Suta exhaled again and said, "You said, I stole your job. So what is your job?"

Judas: "Huh! Asking the question! I am a coachman! After your elemental cart comes out, I can't even drive the cart! Didn't you rob me of my job, so how did I lose my job?!"

Facing this man's aggression, Suta exhaled again and said, "Then, who bought the elemental car?" Judah: "How do I know who bought it? Ever since we got that broken car of yours, those in our town Gentlemen who usually need to hire a carriage don’t want my carriage anymore! I’m not the only one in this situation!”

Hearing this, Suta suddenly leaned forward, stared wide-eyed, and said, "Then, why can those gentlemen who can afford a horse-drawn carriage change into an elemental carriage? Where did their money come from? Yes. did you give them?"

Judas was taken aback for a moment, and then he said loudly, as if he was alert to something, "I don't want to talk to you! You people in Song of the Mermaid like to talk nonsense!"

But Suta shook his head, and said with a serious face: "Whether it is unreasonable or not, you know it in your heart. Tell me, how much does it cost to take your carriage? It doesn't matter if you refuse to answer, I will also take a ride." I also know the general price of the carriages."

The man was still hugging his child, his eyes seemed to be bursting with anger.

"However, the price of an elemental car is no less than a hundred gold coins. Those gentlemen who usually only need to pay a few copper coins for your carriage, why can they spend so much money so generously after the elemental car comes out? Buy an elemental car?"

"Where does their money come from? Do you know?"

"That's enough! Your mermaid song... that's enough!" Judas shook his head hard, and shouted, "You want to talk about those fallacies again, don't you? Those noble gentlemen are no better than us at all, but they I can afford to ride in a car! And I, who have worked hard for half my life, will lose my job if something happens! You want to say this, right? Woohoo... that's what you want to say! "

A man's roar, besides resentment, also has helplessness, and sadness.

This middle-aged man who seemed very stubborn just now wiped his eyes involuntarily, and shouted again with a crying voice——

"Those aristocratic gentlemen just don't know anything! But they are rich! Wuwuwu...they have money, so what can we do? You rich people are the same! No matter what You can blame us little common people! No matter what happens, the problems are our common people's... If there is any good thing, you nobles have good leadership! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo and that’s what you want to say, right? Don't be afraid, child... Don't be afraid, child... Dad is here... Dad won't die so easily... Dad will be fine... woo woo woo..."

Seeing this man's gradual breakdown, Ariel couldn't help but rubbed her wrist, and sighed softly.

Apparently Cream's words to them had begun to have an effect during the past period of captivity.

They have already begun to think about why the nobles have so much money, why they are so poor, and why they have come to this point...

All of this is starting to work.

On the judgment stand, Suta nodded silently, and continued: "It seems that you are very clear. That's right, why are your nobles so rich? Why are you so poor? Why are those nobles so easy? It's easy to change to a car, and once you don't have the income of those few coins, you will starve for a day?"

"And why did your aristocratic lords ask you all to trouble us in Pelican City when you lost your jobs, lost your land, and couldn't sell your goods? And why did they want you to think, Everything is a problem of Pelican City, as long as Pelican City is resolved, all problems will be solved?"

Suta paused for a moment, then said——

"Even if the elemental car can really make you lose your job, even if the clothes made by us in Pelican City can really crowd out your town's clothing exports. Even so, your city, your town, like us, started to make elemental cars, Wouldn’t it be better to set up a textile factory?”

"However, your city doesn't do that. Or, even if it did, you haven't been able to work in those factories."

The judge raised his head, glanced slowly over all the prisoners below, and continued—

"Then why? If it is true that everything is impoverished as you feel from the door lock, then why didn't your mayors, mayors, and lords follow you to find us in Pelican City? trouble?"

The first thousand 240 chapter three forgiveness of the dead

"Running a factory requires energy. It can even be said that it requires a lot of energy and a lot of hard work!"

"If you open a textile factory without sufficient preparation, then I'm afraid you may lose money. In this state, none of your noble gentlemen followed you. Does that mean they don't care about you at all? People's life or death? Or, from the very beginning, they have the idea of ​​making enough money for themselves, regardless of your life, and leaving after making a fortune?"

Many people thought that running a guild might be easy.

It can even be said that as a boss, you just sit behind the counter every day and wait for the business to come to you.After that, a lot of money will come in, and you don't have to worry about anything, and you don't have to think about anything.

It's just that this kind of thinking doesn't work in Pelican City.

In the development stage of this city, everyone here is very busy, and everyone is eager to do something for the development of this city.In this case, the girl who is the president of Mermaid Song can be said to appear in front of the citizens every day, everyone can see her busyness, see her looking forward and backward for these things, and even feel They couldn't sleep well.

So in this case, no one will think how easy it is to be a chairman.Let alone being a mayor.

Faced with Suta's questioning, the prisoners all silently lowered their heads, not daring to make another sound.

The reason is very simple, because even though they were all imprisoned before, Song of the Mermaid spent a lot of time arranging meals for them, chatting with them, and arranging their activities every day.Those wardens didn't just have to watch them here, but they also had to personally participate in their daily life.Want to say easy?This is simply impossible.

Therefore, when the paladin judge asked such a question, even the ten prisoners over there couldn't help but bow their heads and dare not speak anymore.

"Your...you mean...we're totally...deceived?"

After a long time, Judas raised his head again.There was an expression of astonishment and uneasiness in his eyes, and this expression was no longer as stubborn as before.

The tower above paused for a moment, and then said again: "Then can you tell me why Pelican City can gradually flourish and expand gradually under the leadership of our mayor. But your city, your town, but Getting depressed? Why are you losing your job? And why?"

Lowering his head, Judas thought for a while before finally gritted his teeth and responded, "I...I don't know...I don't know anything...I just know that I don't have a job..."

"That's because your lords are too lazy to do the hard work! They just want to earn a lot of money, and then harvest your land, your house, and your wealth again! In this world, if there are people like you Ordinary people who work hard but still live in poverty every day, and those who don’t do anything, but can live a very relaxed and comfortable life, and there are even guards to protect them, so that you dare not attack them. Then there must be something wrong here!"

"Now if you think about it carefully, don't you think that the one you should go to is not our guild, not our Pelican City, but the one who tricked you, let you come here to beat, smash, loot and burn, and do such a bad thing?" The person who did the thing?!"

There seemed to be a certain majesty in Suta's voice.

She was a paladin and now a judge.Look at the prisoners below, the prisoners who she personally sentenced to death.Her face was full of pity, but she didn't shake in the slightest because of pity.

After the prisoners below were all speechless one by one, Suta slowly took a breath, raised his head, looked at all the prisoners in front of him, stood up, and said again——

"We believe that each of us should be fair before the God of Light."

"This kind of fairness comes from the fact that we are all born under the blessing of the God of Light, and we will also die under the protection of the God of Light. However, apart from birth and death, our life experiences are very different. Some people live very differently. Hard work, daily life is like despair. But some people live so recklessly, money and wealth are at their fingertips."

"Obviously, the God of Light did not take care of fairness other than birth and death. However, we should take the initiative to obtain the fairness that the God of Light did not bestow."

"Just like the president of our guild, the current mayor of Pelican City, Ms. Ariel Garcia said, each of us should be equal. There is no distinction between men, women, young or old, or nobles Or slaves, each of us comes with the same justice and dies with the same justice. For this reason, we should take it for granted, and should also pay attention to fairness and equality in life."

"If someone wants to use their power to oppress your equality, take your wealth, land, and family, then you should stand up against those people. Instead of waving your weapons at other innocent people!"

As Suta's voice fell, the prisoners and the citizens next to them remained silent again.

Ariel in the distance watched all this, nodded silently, with a smile on her face.She turned her head and glanced at Eddie and George next to her, but the faces of these two people looked a little ugly.

Hmm... This is normal, but I have to be on my guard to prevent these two guys from using their brains again.

Back at the trial scene, those prisoners looked at me and I looked at you, with embarrassment and a little remorse on their faces.

After a moment of silence, one of the prisoners who had just been sentenced to death suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Judge! Your Honor! I...we knew we were wrong...! We were all deceived... Be deceived by those lords!"

When someone started talking, others naturally began to beg for mercy——

"Yeah yeah! We all know it's wrong! We shouldn't be doing this!"

"After listening to what you said, the judge, I finally understand that Pelican City is not my enemy! We...we really know that we were wrong!"
