At this time, Lanny was standing at the highest spot in the Forbidden Wasteland with her hands behind her back, but her mind was filled with helplessness.They were in huge trouble now!If only they invoked the Grand City's laws and rules, then they had a 100% chance of giving Harvey the guilty verdict. And if she managed to invite everyone on her list and everyone from the Four Pillars were their own, then she could still somewhat manipulate the outcome.But when Lanny was making her calls, she noticed that everyone important she managed to contact either immediately hung up on her or totally ignored her calls.Someone like her had always been able to catch the drift. And from these details, she could tell that while the Four Pillars might not stand with Harvey, they would be completely neutral when it came to dealing with this.If things develop that way, then the chances of convicting Harvey was a 50% chance.Lanny wanted to leave and get reinforcements from Grand City. But sh
Harvey glanced at Lexie and spoke calmly, "Lexie, you're here to represent Dragon Palace, not HL Casino. When you're representing the casino, you can do whatever you want. But if you still act so willfully when representing Dragon Palace, what do you think will happen?"After hearing Harvey's words, Lexie responded, "Since I'm the wife of the leader of Dragon Palace, my husband will be able to shield me from whatever I caused. Just because he can't give me anything else, he can at least give me the right to do what I want, no?"Harvey smiled. "Then, I hope you can be as confident as ever."Lexie's figure quickly disappeared into the underground city. Jesse approached Harvey and nodded at him. "We meet again. But I'm not here to speak with you, so I'll make it short. I'll maintain the fairness of the law here. If you're innocent, then the person who framed you will be paying an unimaginable price. But if you're guilty, then I'll kill you before you suffer from too much pain before yo
Harvey focused his eyes before sighing. "Does that mean I owe him one too?""Yes," replied Ethan with a heavy heart."Alright. Since I owe him one, and so did the entire country, then I'm going to get involved. Once the joint trial ends, I'll enter Grand City and find out the truth for his sake."After hearing that, Ethan narrowed his eyes and looked at Lanny and the others with pity. Those who framed Harvey were going to have a taste of their own medicine soon.Ethan believed that once Harvey entered Grand City, all the seven families would never be able to rest well ever again…The others did not know what was going through Harvey's mind. But when they saw Geoffrey appear, Samuel greeted him with a smile. As for Lanny, Clarion, and the others, they all sighed in relief, as if they had finally seen their messiah.It was five in the morning.It was the time when people succumbed to sleep the easiest and psychologically most susceptible.The joint trial officially began in the u
"Very well. Since there are no objections… We shall begin the trial," the Yamaraja said as he looked at Mandy."Mandy. You are the operator of the underground fighting arena, are you not?""Yes," Mandy said as she nodded her head. "To be exact, the Ninth branch is operating the ring.""Good. Then, when Durandal took his men to your underground fighting arena and won hundreds of millions, is that why you hate him?" asked Justitia with coldness in her eyes. "That was true in the very beginning," explained Mandy. "You must have known that the Ninth Branch had some big issues regarding our cash flow, and we have been dependent on the underground fighting arena. In the beginning, when Durandal won so much money and provoked our guests against us, of course, I hated him."However, Harvey came and helped us later on. Not only did Harvey make him lose all the money he previously won, and then some. He managed to solve our cash flow issue because of that. Harvey even severed Durandal's ar
Harvey then took out his mobile, connected it to the court's system, and played a video. In the video, he was either reading a book or drinking from his cup. The clock and everything behind him could prove his whereabouts at that time."I also have documents from the country's reputable institutions that can prove the time, location, and date. They can also prove that my clip is unedited. This is my alibi. If you say that your video can prove I'm the culprit, then my video can refute that."Lanny could not help but yell, "Stop lying, Harvey! You're the one in the video!""Just because you're stupid doesn't mean we're all stupid," argued Harvey calmly. "If I really am going to murder Durandal, the first thing I'm doing is to take out the security cameras. Even if I don't, I should wear a mask, right? Not only did I not prepare anything, but I even showed my face before leaving so the camera could capture my face… Who would do something as stupid as this?"Lanny paused briefly, askin
Yamaraja's voice became gentler as he spoke to the nurse, "Don't be afraid. We have asked you to reveal who the murderer was from that night. Simply follow your heart. Once this is done, we shall do as we promised. We will help your family migrate to a place where no one knows you and give you enough to live the rest of your days peacefully."The woman took a deep breath and quickly nodded after she heard that. Then, she took a few steps in front and carefully observed the six masked figures who looked similar. After looking at everyone, her sigh quickly fell on Harvey. Then, she lightly said, "I think it's him. Because that night, when he spoke to me, he also looked at me with such callous eyes. They're still like water, and I couldn't feel anything at all…"Upon hearing the woman's testimony, all eyes fell on Harvey.Then, Yamaraja coldly asked, "Harvey, how do you plea?"Harvey smiled and removed his mask, then sat back down. "Are you sure the person you met is me?"The woman n
Harvey did not waste his breath and immediately dashed to the woman's side and immediately bit his finger, and dripped a drop of blood on her forehead. After Harvey had done that, the woman's condition seemed to have improved slightly, and she also stopped shaking."Where's the knife?!" Harvey asked one more time. After some hesitation, Blade gave Harvey the longsword he had. Harvey grabbed the longsword and then sliced open her palms, the soles of her feet, and then her back.Initially, Lanny and the others did not believe Harvey's actions would be effective. However, they soon noticed that as Harvey performed each action, the woman's twitching became weaker and less frequent.And then, the moment Harvey cut the woman's forehead, a talisman immediately flew out from inside.The talisman seemed to have a mind of its own and immediately attacked Harvey. However, just as it was going to reach Harvey's forehead, Harvey immediately stabbed the talisman using the tip of the sword onto t
The entire court became silent after they heard the nurse's apology. The evidence had become useless, and the witness had become completely worthless. How were they supposed to continue with this case?Samuel suddenly asked curiously, "The Soul-transference Technique isn't something that can be used so easily. Its caster needs to personally feed you something as a medium. Consider carefully if someone fed you something in the past few days."The nurse gave it a thought for a while before saying, "No, I'm quite careful with my personal hygiene, so I don't eat anything anyone gives to me. But on the day Durandal was admitted to the hospital, she came by and said I look a little pale. She even told me to rest well, and opened a box of chocolate and stuffed one in my mouth. Seeing that she's quite pretty and clean, I didn't refuse her… But it feels like… After that time, someone else's voice seemed to be in my head…"Everyone instantly turned to Lanny when they heard the nurse say that.
