Chapter 46 Civil Recall
Jenika and Vic's cries faded away until they were no longer heard.
It is unclear whether Chino deliberately tricked the two men and executed them under the pretense of misunderstanding, or whether he was really killed by him in a joke just because they misunderstood.
The scene just now shocked Pesci so much that he stood there stunned, not daring to say a word.
Percy had heard the name of Chino van Helsing before, but he had heard that he was a weak and incompetent nobleman with a high family reputation, and his subordinates never respected him, and even a dog in Shirintown dared to pee on his leg.
But now it seems that this guy is completely different from the rumors...
After a short time, Paladin returned, and he deliberately wiped the blood and cleaned his body, and said in a deep voice: "I have beheaded the two of them, chopped up their bodies and made pig food, and put their heads in the cemetery to honor the dead." β
Chino was concentrating on studying the city defense drawings at this time, and he didn't raise his head: "It's hard work, let's go and train the sergeant." β
"Yes."
After Paladin left, Pesci was left in the air, not daring to move or speak, so he could only wait for Chino to take care of him.
But Chino looked at the drawings very attentively, and went to get the ruler and charcoal several times, and passed by Pesci, as if he didn't see him, and I don't know if it was intentional.
In this way, after a full hour, the obese Percy was so tired that he couldn't straighten his waist, and his chest began to feel stuffy, and he coughed unconsciously: "Cough..."
Hearing this, Chino raised his head and patted his head: "I'm really sorry, I forgot that you are still here." Sit down, there are no outsiders here, feel free to do so, just like at home. β
"Whew-" Pesci sat down in his chair with relief, and in order to maintain his image, he still straightened his chest and tucked his belly to face Chino, and his expression was as flattering as if facing his master's dog: "Your Lord, your sentence is so relieving!" The pair of dog men and women who cheated others out of life-saving money should be beheaded for a memorial! β
Chino smiled and asked, "Do you think I'm doing a good job?" β
"Of course!" Percy swore by it.
Chino's expression was a little melancholy, and he kept rubbing his chin: "But from the Codex, I obviously crossed the line." They are the commoners of Doguland who enjoy the most basic right to life, not slaves who can be deprived of their lives at will. It is contrary to the integrity of the magistrates that I did not go through the investigation of the court and put them to death without knowing the charges or even the lack of evidence. β
Pesci wanted to cry without tears, and thought to herself: What then! Could it be that Lao Tzu is scolding you now? Do I dare???
Percy cleared her throat and bowed her jaw and said, "Don't worry, it's not a problem. Two damned little civilians were killed, and the Ombudsman wouldn't care about such a trivial matter. β
Chino looked at him with interest, "You mean that the Ombudsman flouts the Codex?" β
Pesci suddenly panicked: "I'm me, I'm not saying that!" β
"Is that my contempt for the Code?"
"My lord, I didn't mean that!"
"There's always someone wrong in this matter, who do you think is wrong? Me, or the Ombudsman? β
Percy was already dizzy, and coupled with the nervousness, her brain couldn't turn, and she shrank her head and couldn't speak for a long time.
Chino: "Are you like that at home?" β
Percy was stunned: "What? ...β
"You're sitting like this at home?" Chino pointed to Percy's chest and abdomen.
Percy hurriedly shook her head: "No." β
Chino looked at him expressionlessly: "I just said, feel free to do whatever you want, just like at home." Why do you still sit in this position? β
After hesitating for a moment, Percy subconsciously followed Chino's words, put her stomach down, and relaxed and leaned back in her chair.
Chino clapped his hands, and a smile resurfaced on his face: "Isn't it more comfortable?" β
"It's... Yesβ" Pesci nodded resignedly.
Chino got up, picked up the flask on the table and poured him a glass of wine: "Come, taste." β
Percy took the cup with both hands and took a sip, and the hot sensation spread rapidly in his mouth, along his throat and into his stomach, so hot that he was sweating profusely, covering his throat and began to cough wildly: "Cough! Ahem... Cough cough! ...β
Chino looked at him and asked curiously, "Isn't it delicious?" β
"Your Excellency... Cough cough! ... Thisβ" Percy coughed so hard that tears flowed from her eyes, but she didn't dare to say what was in her heart, so she could only show an ugly smile and give a thumbs up, "It's delicious." β
Chino took the opportunity to hand the flask forward: "Then another glass?" β
"Oh no no, no, I, I'm not thirsty... Ahem, my lord, what are you giving me a drink? I felt an extremely strong aroma of wine, which I had never drunk before. Percy quickly digressed the subject.
Chino sat back in his chair and said with a smile, "You must already know about me and the visitors. β
Pesci did not miss any opportunity to flatter, and said slowly: "Of course, the carrier pigeon has spread your great achievements to the streets!" Looking at the kingdom, who doesn't know that Lord Chino Van Helsing is an alien annihilator? β
"This is from them, wine that does not belong to this world." Chino shook the flask in front of his nose and asked with a smile, "What do you think of this wine?" β
Although Percy was choked to death at first, not to mention, the spicy sensation exploded, pierced the throat, and left a lingering fragrance in the mouth for a long time, which was still quite emotional.
Percy was honest with her thoughts: "It was a little uncomfortable at first. But drinking too much of our fruit wine, this wine from outside the world gave me a strange surprise. β
"Yes, you like strange surprises." There was mystery in Chino's eyes, and he said profoundly, "You always go to the house of strange women and spend the night with them. β
Percy trembled, and her eyes were a little wandering: "My lord, I didn't force them, you love me, this doesn't violate the law, right?" β
"Of course not, you're a civil affairs officer, what's wrong with sleeping with a few women? It's just that I'm a little worried about your personal safety, and you never bring an entourage when you go to sleep with them. Chino looked into his eyes, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared, as if announcing the end of the game, "No wonder in the attack and defense of Shilin Town, only Pulo's reinforcements did not arrive in time, are you afraid that you will sleep until noon the next day to find out about the invasion of horse bandits, right?" β
Pesci only felt a thunderbolt in the clear sky in his head, and he was so frightened that his wine glass fell, and he fell to his knees in despair: "My lord, I know it's wrong!" β
"What's wrong with you?"
"I... I shouldn't have gone to sleep with those women..."
"Everyone has a need for this, how can it be your fault?"
"I shouldn't have left it unattended..."
"You don't want too many people to know about privacy, I can understand that."
Pexi's pupils twitched, and she directly pressed her forehead to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, what do you think I am wrong, you can say it directly." β
Chino looked at him playfully: "It means that I am strong and reasonable, and I have to find fault with you?" β
Percy tensed, and then relaxed, he hung his head weakly, and his voice was a little choked: "I see..."
Chino: "What do you understand?" β
Persie wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, raised her head and pleaded, "I voluntarily resign as the civil governor of Plo... I just hope that the adults will not pursue this matter again..."
