The first thousand one hundred and forty-nine chapters treasury storm
"Keep an eye on them, don't let any of them escape!" Selmi ordered loudly, asking his deputy general to lead the troops to guard Yamil and others. Then he quickly followed Jia Zhengjin into the manor, not daring to stay too far away from him.
After all, he was also nervous. If the powerful men from the Dark Temple were really found, it would be very dangerous. At least by following the God-Slayer, he could ensure his own safety.
The army carried out a carpet-like search in the manor, not sparing any suspicious places. Whether it was the courtyard, corridors, halls, bathrooms, or even the bedrooms, they carefully looked under or behind every piece of furniture.
However, when Jia Zhengjin led the team in, the soldiers he met along the way reported that except for members of the Tonard family, no suspicious people were found.
At first, Selmy thought that maybe he didn't search carefully. But then he gradually started to worry, so he couldn't help but whisper to Jia Zhengjin in front of him: "Lord Keen, I almost searched the entire manor and found nothing! What if?
Wrong, that is a very serious matter to me! Ymir has a very high reputation in Mindoga City, so this will arouse public indignation against him!"
"You mean, you doubt the authenticity of what I said?" Jia Zhengjin turned around and asked.
"Don't dare, don't dare..." Selmy's expression changed and he shook his head vigorously in a hurry.
"You don't have to worry," Jia Zhengjin said, "I don't believe that we can't find any evidence! Besides, we still have 43 personal witnesses, and we can't allow the other party to deny it. Even if there is nothing suspicious in the manor, it doesn't prove that he
Itβs just innocent.β
"What you're saying is..." Selmy sighed inwardly, but with the God Killer on his side, at least the people would not direct all their anger on themselves. And if there are really 43 witnesses, it can also be used as an explanation.
Let the people believe this.
Jia Zhengjin personally led the team around the manor, but found nothing suspicious.
It can be seen that the Tonard family is also very cautious. I wonder if they did not harbor members of the Dark Temple at all, or did they know that they would be discovered, so they sent them away in advance?
If it is the former, then it should be very difficult to find evidence. We can only rely on the evidence from Yamil Villa and the confessions of the 43 rescued civilians to convict. This is not perfect. There will definitely be a large number of people who have benefited from Yamil.
When the people stand up, they will be able to suppress it as a god-killer. If they do this, no one will dare to object, but it will cause a certain loss to Jia Zhengjin's own reputation.
If it's the latter, it's serious! There must be no problem with Jia Zhengjin. That is to say, before Selmi dispatched his troops, someone had secretly informed Yamil, causing the team to return without success. If among the civil and military officials,
It would not be fun if there were people like Ymir!
"How's it going? Did you find anything suspicious?" After another round and still no results, Selmy became nervous and stopped the soldiers coming and going and asked loudly.
"Report to the general, we have dug three feet into the ground and still haven't found anything suspicious!" the soldier responded loudly.
"What's going on over there?" Jia Zhengjin pointed to a warehouse-like building. A group of soldiers were outside the door, all with stunned expressions.
"Report to Mr. Keen," the soldier immediately replied when he saw him pointing in that direction, "We accidentally opened the vault of the Tonas family, and everyone was shocked by the gold and silver treasures inside! But those belong to the Tonas family.
Private property, unless there is a clear sentence and conviction, no one is allowed to touch it at will, and no one is allowed to enter it easily, otherwise it will be our responsibility if anything is missing in the future..."
"Really?" Jia Zhengjin snorted, "I think this place is quite suspicious!"
"Ah?" Selmi saw Jia Zhengjin going to the treasury and quickly reached out to intercept him, "Lord Keen, our country's laws clearly stipulate that this is protected by the Private Property Protection Law. Before the decision is finalized, it must not be easily approached or moved.
One point.β
"Really?" Jia Zhengjin said after hearing this, "That's right! Couldn't someone just take advantage of this legal loophole to set up a secret room or passage in the treasury? Since I searched the manor and found nothing, I can't say for sure.
in!"
"But Lord Keen..." Selmy looked embarrassed, "If as a general, I don't abide by the law, how can I assist His Highness in managing this country in the future..."
"There are problems with your laws. If the other party is indeed a prisoner, there is no need to protect his property!" Jia Zhengjin said calmly, "It doesn't matter. Even if I don't abide by this law, you have nothing to say, right?"
Selmy's lips twitched, and he thought to himself that even if he uses his identity as a God-killer, it would be too disrespectful to say this, right? Not only would it deny me face, but it would also be a slap in the face!
But he didn't dare to object, so he could only smile bitterly: "Master Keen is joking, a transcendent person like you..."
"That's it!" Jia Zhengjin led the team straight to the front of the vault and shouted, "Get out of my way!"
"Wow!" The soldiers immediately moved to both sides, and no one dared to block his way.
"Hey~" What else can Selmy do? Not to mention the Coastal Kingdom, even the kings of the four major empires can only grovel in front of the God-Slayer. The general of a small country is nothing in front of him.
?
The law is originally used to restrain the people. Many powerful people in this world who are beyond the law disdain this, and no one dares to do anything.
The ninth-level strong man has a very casual attitude towards the laws of various countries, because no one can rule them. If he is willing to abide by it, you have to be grateful. If he is not willing, you can only touch your nose.
This is true even for ninth-level powerhouses, not to mention the God-killers!
However, Selmy also had expectations in his heart. Since the God-Slayer personally waded into this muddy water, he would have a shield when the people protested, so that he would not be too embarrassed. No one would say anything wrong with him if he surrendered to the God-Slayer.
If people from the Dark Temple are really found in the vault, or there are relatively good evidences, then this matter will be even more problematic!
At the moment of thinking, Jia Zhengjin had already entered the vault directly.
The vault doesn't seem big from the outside, but once you enter, you find that it's very spacious inside. Moreover, in the vault, there are neatly arranged gold coins, silver coins, copper coins, gold bars, gold bricks and various gold and silver jewelry.
Pile up like a mountain, the amount is amazing!
Seeing these treasures, the eyes of Connie and Liz, the dragon mother and daughter, suddenly lit up.
However, Jia Zhengjin moved a step faster, and before they could react, he flashed over and quickly started to put all the treasures into the virtual backpack. There was a big pile at once, and a lot was collected quickly.
When about half of the treasure was gone, Connie rushed over to snatch the remaining pieces from him, and Liz immediately helped.
The dragon mother and daughter grabbed the money too fast. Jia Zhengjin was so anxious that he shouted while grabbing: "What are you doing standing still? Come and help me! Connie, there is so much money in your lair, why are you grabbing it from me?"
?β
"Everyone who meets you has a share!" Connie's movements were not slow at all.
When Sienna, Stein, Claire and others saw this, they all took out their cotton bags and rushed in. Only Selmy was left alone and turned into a statue, messy in the wind.
