Since ancient times, the Canaanites have been a nation with a strong business sense. Most of the Canaanite immigrants in Avalon are engaged in trade, finance and news publishing.

Wealthy foreigners are inevitably envied by locals, not to mention immigrants from hostile countries.

In this trend, many shops run by Canaanites were destroyed by thugs, and there were endless incidents of looting and smashing.

The Dreyfus case was also involved in this political turmoil. Because the Canaanite immigrants involved in the case were more suspected of collaborating with the enemy and selling out their country.

Facing pressure from all sides, Albert Franklin, the key witness in the Dreyfus case, bravely stood up.

The old man volunteered to defend Captain Dreyfus and was willing to accept an examination including a polygraph test to prove that his correspondence with Captain Dreyfus was just normal communication between friends and there was absolutely no intention to spy on intelligence.

However, the military court did not give Franklin the opportunity to prove his innocence and directly expelled him from the country.

Shortly thereafter, the military court sentenced Captain Dreyfus to life imprisonment and exile to "Devil's Island" in the absence of evidence.

This brutal verdict completely angered those in society who sympathized with Dreyfus.

In parliament, the ruling party and the opposition party launched a more intense verbal battle over the Dreyfus Affair.

Even in families, couples or fathers and sons frequently quarreled over opposition and support for the trial of Captain Dreyfus, and eventually divorced or even severed the father-son relationship.

When the time came to the winter of 1627, the Dreyfus case had fermented for more than two months, and had evolved from an ordinary criminal case to a national political carnival.

Both opposing parties believed that they had mastered the truth and justice.

In addition to the most simple appeal of revealing the truth, this case was also related to party disputes and the evolution of war in the New World.

Should the war in the New World continue according to the intention of the ruling party, or should it accept the call of the opposition party representing the majority of the people, stop the war as soon as possible, and seek peace?

The left and the right gave tit-for-tat answers.

Most people in the literary and art circles belong to the left-wing camp.

They made appeals, wrote articles, and participated extensively in the activities of supporting Captain Dreyfus, setting off a vigorous social movement.

Emile Edward, a national treasure writer of the Kingdom of Feigen and a contemporary literary giant, published a heavy article "I Accuse", exposing the truth of the Dreyfus incident, and took the lead in publicly pointing out that Major Frame lied to the military court and the public, and fabricated charges to frame Captain Dreyfus.

Shortly after the article was published, the great writer died strangely at home.

After the police investigation, they claimed that the cause of death was gas poisoning.

Left-wing people generally believe that this investigation result is pure bullshit!

People are more willing to believe that the Frame party was afraid that the truth would be revealed, and used a despicable murder to silence Emile Edward, who tried to uphold justice, forever!

The death of the great writer completely angered the intellectual class, and they spontaneously devoted themselves to investigating the truth of the Dreyfus case.

Strength lies in numbers.

The truth cannot be hidden.

More and more investigation evidence shows that Dreyfus is most likely framed, and Major Henry Frame, who reported him for treason, was actually jealous and wanted to use fabricated evidence to get rid of this rival who competed with him for the position of director of the intelligence department.

Continue to investigate, and the truth will come out soon. By then, not only will Major Frame be disgraced, but the nobles and senior officers who supported him before, the conservative parliamentarians and the bigwigs of the ruling party will also be slapped in the face.

The honor and face of too many people depend on this case, and Captain Dreyfus must be a traitor.

If he is not, then he should be a dead man.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of hand, the conservatives carried out some judicial operations and instructed Major Henry Frame to take the lead and apply to the court to initiate a judicial duel to defend his honor with his life.

As the other party in the duel, Captain Dreyfus was infected with tuberculosis in prison and was weak and unable to fight.

Captain Dreyfus's wife, introduced by Mrs. Jones, came to Musk's office and asked Musk to represent her husband's unjust case.

In order to save her husband, she was willing to go bankrupt.

In fact, the wealth that she and her family could mobilize was too huge.

When Lisa, as Musk's agent, tried to offer a commission of 7,000 gold pounds and waited for Mrs. Dreyfus to bargain, the other party was stunned for a moment and actually showed anger.

"Miss Colt, do you think that my husband's innocence and freedom are only worth 7,000 pounds?!"

"Ah... No, you mean... can we earn more?"

"Miss Colt, Mr. Justice, I don't allow you to offer such a low commission! In addition to 7,000 pounds in cash, I will also give you a small gift of no less than the same amount after the duel. What do you think?"

"Oh! Dear Mrs. Dreyfus, you are so generous! What can we do? Of course, we can only act according to your wishes."

Gao Fei accepted Mrs. Dreyfus's commission, not only for the money, but also to uphold justice in his heart.

When he attended the Hellfire Club party, he heard about the competition between Major Frame and Captain Dreyfus for a position.

Paul Porter and others also knew that Major Frame was ambitious and would most likely falsely accuse his competitors in order to seek a higher position.

However, Frame was a member of the club after all, and was one of their own in the circle.

Even if it was against their conscience, they had to publicly support Frame.

Gao Fei ignored the dissuasion of Paul Porter and others and insisted on standing up for Captain Dreyfus and accepting the duel initiated by Henry Frame, which was equivalent to actively drawing a line with the Hellfire Club and establishing a large number of enemies that were not easy to mess with.

This price was too high, was it really necessary?

Finally, a letter strengthened his belief.

The letter was sent by old man Franklin, asking this little brother to stand up for the innocent Captain Dreyfus and win the duel.

Old man Franklin had been expelled from the country, and was far away across the ocean, so he could not provide Gao Fei with substantial benefits for the time being.

However, if Gao Fei was willing to help, old man Franklin would remember his favor and would definitely reward him handsomely in the future.

Let alone the "reward", just based on his friendship with the old man, Gao Fei must help!

After accepting the commission, according to the process, the next step is to investigate the strength of the duel opponent and designate countermeasures.

Gao Fei does not even need to investigate personally, the private detective hired by the Dreyfus family has already sent a detailed file on Major Henry Frame to his office.
