Shameless Warlock

Chapter 51 Shame on conscience? !

in court.

The necromancer became more and more excited as he talked: "Nineteen years! Ever since I came to the Bone Desolate Village, I have done a few small researches, and you have been pestering me all day long!"

"Do you think I won't sue you for my good temper?"

"You rascals!"

The justice glanced at him, and the necromancer was a little quiet.

In the auditorium, the crowd was excited, and a weak voice came out with difficulty: "That's my thigh bone..."

It's a pity that it was quickly drowned out by the voices of critics condemning the necromancer's evil deeds.

Xu Nan felt dizzy for a while.

What is this? He could see that in the second stage of the confrontation, choosing the defense would be a dead end, right?

How can there be a defendant who goes to court with criminal evidence?

This is simply cheating yourself.

What's more, this necromancer didn't have the attitude of a criminal suspect at all. Instead, he was complacent and arrogant, and even scolded the villagers in the auditorium in the dock.

For a while, the courtroom was as noisy as a vegetable market. Xu Nan looked at the necromancer with his arms crossed and scolding others, and suddenly saw a somewhat familiar emblem on his wrist.

It's just that the emblem is a bit inconspicuous, and it's easy to be covered by the sleeves. If he hadn't scolded with his arms crossed, Xu Nan wouldn't be able to see it clearly.

"Huh?"

Xu Nan was still thinking about it, and the silence technique that the judge had just removed was turned on again.

"Silence!" The justice tapped the gavel.

Warlock Jason, who was the attorney for the prosecution, began his speech.

He looked at the mighty Necromancer with a sneer: "It seems that Your Excellency has confessed to his crimes."

"Then I don't need to say anything more. You are indeed right when you say that you are a necromancer who is keen on the study of corpses."

"But the problem is that the cemetery in the deserted bone village is the birthplace of the undead; most of the corpses buried there will be transformed into undead in the future, that is, the villagers of the deserted bone village."

"If I remember correctly, the Bone Burial Village, as a gathering place for the undead, follows the Code of Hammer jointly formulated by the nineteen monarchs of the world of the dead."

"There is a clear stipulation in the code that preventing or affecting the normal birth of undead is a crime!"

"Your Excellency stole the bones from the cemetery, seriously affected the peace of the cemetery, and also affected the normal birth of the undead, which is already a crime; what's more, you are also suspected of stealing the thigh bones of ordinary villagers..."

"My lord, I think the situation is very obvious. Please immediately convict this necromancer who doesn't know how to respect according to the law!"

Xu Nan frowned. This guy really came prepared. If the second link also fails, basically the treasure in the deserted bone village has nothing to do with him, right?

The chief judge who is an archlich is expressionless (nonsense, where is the expression of a lich): "Does the defense lawyer want to defend?"

Xu Nan pondered for a while: "Your Honor, I request an adjournment!"

The justice asked: "Why?"

"The prosecution lawyer's lingua franca dialect is so strong that I didn't understand what he was saying!"

"I hope to use the recess time to learn to understand the language so that I can understand what nonsense he is talking about."

Xu Nan smiled tentatively.

Before Jason could intervene, the judge struck down with a hammer: "Okay."

"Adjourn for three hours."

Snapped!

With a snap of fingers, the court turned back to the stage again, and the members of the circus went into battle upon seeing this, and the atmosphere became lively again.

The villagers seemed to have forgotten everything that had just happened, and once again cheered for the wonderful performance on the stage.

Jason ran over angrily, and stared at Xu Nan fiercely: "You actually said that my Mandarin dialect is heavy? I want to sue you for alleged regional discrimination! Also, my Mandarin is a standard tenth level, there is no possibility of What dialect..."

Xu Nan didn't bother to pay attention to him, and dragged Ah Tang into the crowd silently.

He needs time to investigate some things.

Three hours later.

Re-open the court.

When it was Xu Nan's turn to defend, Xu Nan stood there with a smile on his face and talked eloquently: "Actually, the matter is not as serious as the prosecution lawyer said!"

"The Bone Burial Village does abide by the Code of Hammer, and the cemetery is also the birthplace of the undead. My client did indeed take a few bones..."

Jason's pale and kidney-deficient face was full of complacency.

"...But as far as I know, these bones and corpses ran out of the cemetery by themselves, crying and begging my client to use them for research. It's not stealing if you agree with me."

Xu Nan was talking nonsense when he opened his mouth, even more nonsense than a necromancer.

When the necromancer heard this, he smiled and gave Xu Nan a thumbs up, probably because he had met someone of the same kind.

"Nonsense! Those bones have not yet turned into undead, how could they come out!"

Jason glared.

The justice glanced at him: "Both parties are free to debate."

"That's because your level is not enough. My client has the ability to communicate with the corpse, and can perceive their emotions in every bone. He heard their call. They feel that being buried in the cemetery is too dull. I strongly request my client to help them escape the sea of suffering, so the previous misunderstanding occurred."

Xu Nan was extremely calm.

There was an uproar in the auditorium, and some villagers began to curse Xu Nan.

Looking at the system prompt, Xu Nan saw that his favorability with the villagers in the deserted bone village had dropped crazily, and he felt neither sad nor happy.

Jason sneered: "Ridiculous! Bones still have emotions?"

Xu Nan raised his eyebrows: "Are you looking down on bones?"

Jason realized something: "I'm not, I'm not..."

"Can't bones have their own emotions? Everyone here, who is not made of bones? The white-clothed sister over there, please shrink back into the wall. I don't want to see you now."

Xu Nan continued to talk wildly: "Can you prove that my client does not have the ability to communicate with the bones? No? Sorry, I think my client is not guilty, and I think the jury and the judge think so too of."

"This case has been pending for nineteen years. Why? Isn't it because you scumbags don't know how to understand the painstaking efforts of adults? Nineteen years have been entangled, can you raise your awareness?"

"It's about you plaintiffs! Is the cemetery opened by your family? I saw my client walking out of the cemetery and holding a few corpses indiscriminately. Suffered a full nineteen years of unjust injustice."

"Touch your conscience, do you feel guilty in your heart!?"

The plaintiff villagers touched their chests subconsciously.

"Sorry, I forgot that you are already undead, and it is normal to have no conscience."

Xu Nan said calmly: "But the most basic thing is that you can tell right from wrong? My client didn't commit a crime at all. If you still have a little conscience, withdrawing the lawsuit now is considered a merit."

Jason sneered.

He has calmed down now, and found that Xu Nan was messing around, this is the rhythm of giving up treatment!

How could such a defense be approved by the jury?

He glanced at the members of the jury. Although they were all undead, he could feel their emotional fluctuations.

They are angry.

What Xu Nan said was provoking the court at all!

Jason immediately relaxed. He thought for a while, trying to refute Xu Nan's fallacies one by one.

However, at this moment.

The plaintiffs murmured to each other, then raised their hands weakly and said, "Your Honor, we have decided to withdraw the lawsuit."

Snapped!

The small hammer fell to the ground, and the judge said decisively: "Then withdraw the case, and the defendant is acquitted..."

Jason stared at the villagers in disbelief, only to find that the fire of souls in their eye sockets was flickering.

"What did you do to them?" He seemed to have figured out something: "Did you use [bluff] or [negotiate]?"

"Why did you withdraw the lawsuit?" He asked the plaintiffs.

A few bone scumbags gathered together, thought for a long time, and thought of a lame reason: "...we have a guilty conscience."

What the hell, do you have a conscience?

Jason was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. Although he didn't know what was going on, he had to fight for it.

He saw the limping old skeleton in the gallery.

He rushed up in a hurry, walked towards the court with the skeleton in hand, pointed at the necromancer and said:

"Is this the person who took your thighbone!?"

The skeleton tremblingly said: "Yes."

Jason seemed to have grasped the last straw, and said viciously: "This person has committed a heinous crime..."

However, the skeleton interrupted him: "This... this necromancer, he saw that my old cold leg had been suffering from rheumatism and was in great pain, so he helped to break off my thigh."

"Without that old cold leg, I can walk easily now! Look at me, I can still hop on one foot! Thank you Lord Necromancer for your enthusiastic help!"

The skeleton hopped away on one foot.

Jason was dumbfounded.

In the auditorium, the villagers watched this scene in disbelief.

"...The defendant was acquitted!"

The Lich Lord has the final say.

The necromancer probably didn't expect that he would be released without charge, showing a look of astonishment.

...

Fifteen minutes later. Backstage of a circus show.

A man wearing a black cloak came over: "Mr. Xu Nan, please."

"The Chancellor wants to see you."

The corners of Xu Nan's mouth rose slightly:
