Chapter 375: Hopeless
Seeing that Yuanwen finally relented, Solandel was overjoyed and bowed to Yuanwen excitedly. She seized the precious time and said quickly: "Teacher, you went back to your hometown to recuperate some time ago. You may not know what happened recently.
,Is such that..."
Yuanwen kept picking his ears with his little finger and said impatiently: "I know it, don't talk nonsense here, talk about something if you have something to say."
Solandel: "Okay...Teacher, since you know everything, you must also know that the outcome of the trial facing the Kino administrator will probably be very bad...You are a learned master, and I want you to give him
help."
Yuan Wen: “I can’t help.”
Solandel: "Then...can the teacher give me any advice?"
Yuan Wen: "No."
Solandel: "The teacher thinks, who can help him?"
Yuanwen: “I don’t know.”
Yuan Wen's attitude was like that of a fool. Even though he had a good temper like Solandel, he was inevitably a little angry: "Teacher, don't deal with me like this! Time is running out now. I'm really in a hurry. I'm not here to chat with you."
!”
Solandel was anxious, and Yuanwen's attitude became even worse. She slammed the table and said, "I really find it strange. Are you familiar with the administrator of Chino? Does it have anything to do with you whether he dies or not?"
Solandel said without hesitation: "He is my friend!"
"Heh, that's interesting." Yuanwen looked at Solandel up and down with playful eyes and said in a sarcastic tone, "Boton came to me just now and said that Kino was his robe. You came to me and said that Kino is yours.
Friend. Will it be Andre's turn to come to me later and tell me that Chino is his so-and-so?"
"I asked, what is this Kino Van Helsing's ability? A man from a down-and-out noble family, who is only a small administrator now, can actually get along so well with your princes and princesses?"
Solandel explained: "He and I..."
"Remind me, you still have 4 minutes." Yuanwen interrupted her, not knowing whether it was really reminding her of the time or just being too lazy to listen to Solandel's nonsense.
In the face of the tight time, Solandel was still calm. She stabilized her mind and softened her tone: "Teacher, I am not knowledgeable enough and I don't understand many principles. I don't ask you to come up with any countermeasures immediately.
Could you please help me analyze the current situation?"
"You are somewhat self-aware and know that you are not knowledgeable enough." Yuan Wen still looked careless, but the topic finally became serious, "The current situation is actually not difficult to analyze. This person will definitely not die.
"
Solandel was stunned and asked quickly: "Teacher, do you mean that Kino will be acquitted?!"
Yuanwen shook his head: "I just said he won't die, not that he is innocent. Just a reminder, you still have 3 minutes."
Solandel: “Teacher, please go on!”
Yuan Wen: "At the second plenary meeting of the kingdom, the administrator of Kino revealed a bombshell news - the reason why he was constantly hunted by visitors from outside the world may be because of a curse - is he really
He is cursed, or in other words, it doesn't matter whether there is such a 'curse' in the world where he is hunted by aliens."
“Importantly, he has widely convinced the members that if he dies, the ‘curse’ will be transferred, causing another person to become a ‘cursed person’ and be hunted by aliens.”
"The way this curse spreads is unknown. Anyone may become the next cursed person. In other words, if Kino dies, the next person to be hunted by aliens may be one of the congressmen here. Even if
Mathematically speaking, this probability is extremely slim, but it does exist and is not 0%."
Solandel was very smart and realized the key point immediately: "So, now that all the members are restless and everyone is in danger, in order to prevent themselves from becoming the next cursed person, the safest way is to keep Kino alive. He
As long as you are alive, the probability of the curse being transferred is 0%! They must do their best to save Kino's life and use him to 'lock' the curse!"
“You still have 2 minutes.” Yuan Wen said calmly.
After learning that Kino would not die, Solandel was very happy at first, but slowly realized that something was wrong: "But... if it is just to ensure that the curse will not be transferred, just keep Kino alive, but...
There are no restrictions on the specific maintenance method. In other words, as long as Chino is 'alive', they don't care how to live..."
Yuanwen rubbed his temples, seeming to be very sleepy, and said lazily: "The specific information has not been released yet, but according to my opinion, the measures the royal family will take are very simple - deprive Qino of his ability to move, such as removing the
His limbs, and then imprisoned him in the dungeon of a heavy military fortress."
"In this way, Kino will become a 'fixed target' for aliens. Those blasphemers will only launch attacks near military fortresses. The area and extent of damage will be controllable and will not threaten other parts of the kingdom.
territory."
"Furthermore, there is another important point. The extraterrestrial visitors carry a large number of extraterrestrial weapons. Many people in the kingdom want these weapons. The heavy military fortress where Kino is imprisoned is like a mousetrap, which can continuously attract extraterrestrial visitors.
In the cage, they kept killing them and plundering all kinds of trophies from them."
When Solandel thought of the scene where Kino had his limbs removed and lived a miserable life, her face suddenly turned pale: "This makes no sense! They can't do this!"
Yuanwen sneered and looked at Solandel as if she were a fool: "You're so interesting. They are the actual rulers of this kingdom. Is there anything else they can't do?"
Solandel showed off her fists and said seriously: "There is a stipulation in the code that there is no suspicion of guilt. If there is no evidence to prove the crime, the suspect must be released after a limited period of detention! Even if Kino is cursed,
This is not a 'crime', there is no corresponding crime, so why should they hurt him?!"
Yuan Wen laughed and said: "The Code? Then let me ask you, whose will does the Code represent?"
Solandel blinked: "Of course it is the will of the father."
Yuan Wen: "Since the code is your father's will, what does he want to do and he still needs to worry about the code? Is it greater than the code or the king? You can't understand this logic?"
Solandel frowned, pursed her lips hard, and said in a rather unwilling voice: "If that's the case... wouldn't the code be meaningless? This kind of thing is wrong..."
Yuanwen narrowed his eyes, his expression became profound, and he said in a deep voice: "What do you mean...the code should be above the royal power? Above anyone else?"
This topic is too big, Solandel really hasn’t thought about it carefully, and she doesn’t know how to answer it.
Yuanwen didn’t urge him, he just drank the lotus seed soup in silence.
The surroundings were very quiet, with only the sound of the evening breeze caressing the warm lakeside.
After a long silence, Solandel looked at Yuan Wen. It was clearly late at night, but under the candlelight, her eyes shone with light.
