The Sabbath Chapter 270: In place
Passing through five heavy gates with scales carved on the outside, Ronggui Xiaomei finally followed the crowd into the courtroom.
It was a very wide space, and the auditorium was distributed in steps, like a fan surrounding the frontmost judgment platform.
Following the crowd very naturally, Ronggui and Xiaomei sat at a certain distance from the rostrum, a bit off, and could just see the side of the trial platform.
The white-robed students and other so-called "church" people I met just now are still sitting together. They went in early and occupied several contiguous seats. Those students sat at Ronggui's two o'clock position , Ronggui took a look, but didn't see the blond male student who bumped into him.
He continued to look forward——
The two most eye-catching positions in the entire trial court are the front trial platform, and the other is the hearing platform about three meters away from the trial platform.
The judgment table is high, and behind the heavy table are three high-backed chairs with exactly the same appearance. The top of the back of each chair looks like a balance. ", "equality" three words.
And there is a row of chairs behind the judgment table, which are also high-backed chairs, and the top is also carved into the shape of a balance. On the back of the chairs, lines of short but complicated words are carved.
It looks like a poem, and it seems that Ronggui recognizes every word of the article, but it is difficult to understand when connected together, which is a bit beyond Ronggui's understanding.
However, these esoteric sentences made Ronggui feel that the judgment stand is more majestic.
These onlookers who are far away from the trial platform are still shocked, but the person who is about to stand on the trial platform is even more shocked
Looking at the hearing platform surrounded by fences, Peize will stand there in a while and accept the trial.
The auditorium was filled with people one after another.
However, there were still people entering the trial court, and looked up to the rear, only then did Ronggui realize that there were actually two floors above the auditorium! The first floor is the reporters, all kinds of professional cameras have been set up, all the reporters are ready to fight, they are much more serious than the reporters that Ronggui has seen before!
And above the reporters
When seeing the people who were taking their seats, Ronggui's eyes widened in surprise.
There are quite a few people in white robes!
It's not an ordinary white robe, but a white robe man with a red-rimmed coat on the outside! Ronggui has seen two people dressed like this surrounded by other people, and knows in his heart that this kind of dress probably belongs to a big shot, but now——
Those white-robed men who seemed very powerful to him are now also playing the role of guides. Many of these white-robed men carefully led the way and surrounded the people behind.
Until that person was seated, other white-robed people dared to sit down, and only then did Ronggui see the appearance of the mysterious person who was surrounded by those people:
It was a man in a red robe.
Although the style is the same as other white robes, his robe is indeed red.
He has long golden hair that is so brilliant that it is almost silver and a pair of light-colored eyes. When he sat down, his wings opened slightly. At that moment, Ronggui felt as if he saw an angel
Looking at that "angel" blankly, Ronggui just stayed where his neck was, probably because his sight was too obvious, that "angel" actually turned towards him Look here.
Being caught straight, Ronggui's entire robot froze, he thought the other party should be unhappy, but——
Looking at him with almost transparent eyes like water, the man smiled slightly, and the next second, he raised his hand and gently shook it at him.
The light outside the gate shot out from behind him. At that moment, the opponent's wings were like gold, and that hand seemed to be transparent.
The mouth was slightly opened, and at that moment, Ronggui only felt that his mind was blank, reflexively, he also smiled blankly at the other party, and then gently waved his small palm.
"Angel" withdrew his palm, smiled at him again, and looked away, Ronggui saw that he was waving in other directions one after another.
The reaction of the others was not much better than his. The originally quiet court room was noisy for a while because everyone rushed to wave to each other.
Ordinary people just wave their hands, and their behavior is similar to that of Ronggui, while the etiquette of those students in white robes and church staff is more formal. They stood up, piece by piece, and quietly replied a simple A very respectful gift.
The solemnity of a group of people saluting at the same time is extremely astonishing. For a while, the court was even more noisy. Then, the red-robed "angel" slowly stretched out his left hand, and the palm of his hand was almost indiscernible. It's just pressing down, and instantly——
First, the white robes of the church sat back to their original seats after the ceremony, and then the others also sat back.
In an instant, the original silence was restored in the court.
Ronggui turned around while clutching his chest.
"It's really amazing" After a long time, he sighed softly.
To be surrounded by so many people who look very powerful, that person must be a big shot, but the big shot Ronggui thinks he has seen some, such as Mrs. Sadan, the mayor of Coral City, and some people on TV. , he watches TV every day
However, no one made him feel the way he does today.
uh
How to say it
At that moment just now, he did feel the pressure of "power", yes, but, besides that, he always felt that there was something more pressure than power
"The power of faith." What Ronggui wanted to say, even he couldn't understand, but Xiaomei wanted to see what was in his mind, something that he couldn't understand Straight up.
"Cardinal De Baron." Xiaomei said again.
"Huh?"
"The person's name."
This time, Ronggui understood in seconds.
No wonder it's so mysterious, it really is a magic stick——Nodding, Ronggui felt that his feelings were quite correct.
Patting his chest, he felt that the (non-existent) little heart was no longer jumping around, Ronggui turned his head, at this time the red robed man had already withdrawn his sight, and there were two white robes lowering their bodies around him Standing next to him, talking to him in a low voice, listening carefully, the expression of the red-robed man was blocked by those two, and Ronggui couldn't see clearly.
However, behind that De Baron, Ronggui saw a very young face, looking carefully, it looked familiar
Ronggui pulled Xiaomei's arm and motioned him to turn his head and look up as unobtrusively as possible: "Isn't that person the one who came from that missionary college to persuade you to transfer when school started?"
Although he didn't know the other party's name, and he didn't remember the name of the other party's academy, but the other party's behavior that day was extremely abnormal, which finally made Rong Gui remember him deeply, and remembered his face by the way.
Bringarli——The moment she turned her head and saw the opponent's face, the opponent's name came to Xiaomei's mind.
"That's right, that person is from a missionary college. It's normal to be with these people." Before Xiaomei could explain, Ronggui had already figured out why Bryn Garli appeared here.
Therefore, Xiaomei continued to purse her lips, glanced at Bryn Garli lightly, and her eyes slid over the top of De Baron's head, and then over other familiar people, and his eyes fell on De Baron. Pedestrians next door.
The clothes on their bodies are obviously not the style of the church. Those people are wearing ordinary clothes.
Only the style is ordinary, the clothes are well-dressed, and the aura is compelling, without the power of religion. The aura displayed by these people is completely "the power of power".
Although the gap between the seats is exactly the same, and the two groups of people are also seated next to each other, the two groups of people are clearly separated, as if there is an invisible wall separating them.
What Ronggui doesn't understand, Xiaomei knows very clearly: the two groups of people sitting high on the top floor of the auditorium, looking down on the auditorium and even the judge's seat, are the trial contest. The power of both sides.
The power of the church represented by De Baron, to be precise, is the power of the Eastern Hengguang Church, and the power of the ordinary Star City Lord represented by another group of people.
It's just that the person who appeared here this time was actually De Baron, which he didn't expect at first.
And—at this moment, instead of standing behind De Baron, Bryn Garli
Xiaomei stared quietly at the trial platform in front of her. The door to the third floor closed without a sound. When the last ray of natural light disappeared into the court, the lights in the trial court turned on.
"Please be quiet, everyone, the first trial of the Peize case is about to begin—"
A staff member in uniform stood in front of the auditorium. Not long after he announced this sentence, a group of heavily armed soldiers filed in from both sides, and then thirteen people in different clothes, People with different appearances also came in from both sides.
Soldiers guarded the court, while the thirteen sat in chairs behind the tribunal.
"Those are members of the jury." Knowing that Ronggui didn't understand, Xiaomei gently explained to him.
Ronggui nodded.
Then, just after the thirteen jury members took their seats, three people in solemn uniforms appeared from the left, with the person at the front leading the way. They walked to the high platform of the trial platform and took their seats in order.
Two women and one man, one man and one woman sitting on both sides, in the middle is a white-haired lady who looks very old, with deep wrinkles on her face, and two deep nasolabial folds that are cold and hard Swipe down from her pursed lips.
Looking at his appearance alone, he is a very dignified and personable person.
The people sitting on both sides of her are slightly younger, but their expressions are equally serious.
This time, Xiaomei didn't need to explain Ronggui to know their identities: these three must be the judges of this trial, that is, the judges.
The courtroom is quiet.
The lady in the middle looked around, and then looked at the clock hidden inside the judgment table. She took out a delicate gavel from her bosom, and tapped it lightly on the judgment stand.
"The Peize case, the first trial, now in court."
"Bring Peize up."
Cold words were spat out from the two thin lips. The next moment, a small door on the right opened again, and footsteps came from there.
There are two kinds of footsteps, one is obviously more than one person's footsteps, the footsteps are regular and powerful, and it can only be heard by specially trained professionals, while the other is procrastinating and weak.
Pezer——
Ronggui's eyes widened slightly.
The fact that he was about to meet Peize suddenly made him a little nervous, and he clenched his fists.
He just clenched his fists, but many listeners around him couldn't help themselves and stood up:
"Peze, you **** who is not as good as a beast!"
One after another, curses came from around one after another.
"Pa——" There was another crisp knocking sound, and the lady in the center knocked on the stage again with a mallet:
"Please be quiet."
There was no emotion in her voice, it was just cold.
The people who stood up and scolded others sat back one after another. At this moment, three people appeared inside the door.
There are two guards, and the man in the prison uniform driving in the middle is Peize.
Completely different from the big villain that people imagined, Peize is a tall and thin man. He does look haggard, but he is not haggard. tidy.
He raised his head, his eyes were even calm.
"Please go to the judgment stand." The female judge's cold voice sounded again.
He didn't resist, and even took the initiative to take two steps there first. Pei Ze was quickly escorted by the guards to the trial stand.
"The object of this trial is in place, the judge is in place, the jury is in place, the witness group is in place, the audience is in place, the trial conditions have been met, and now the trial will start according to the procedure—"
