"Ren Edward, you were arrested for committing a crime of bravery. Do you plead guilty?"
In the interrogation room, a man who claimed to be the captain of the seventh team of the security team sat opposite Ren and asked him.
At this time, Ren had already understood the reason why he was arrested through the mad war demon. But even after knowing it, he could not accept it even more.
"I know very well what I have done, but I can't understand. Why is it written into the laws of Brica City to act bravely and become an unforgivable crime? Do I have to do it when I see something illegal and criminal?
Are you watching?"
"If there is any illegal activity, our security team will handle it. You don't need to intervene." Captain Seven used a very serious tone, but said something that made Ren find it funny: "You don't have any extraordinary power."
"Think about those powerful people. If they were like you, using their power without restraint and fighting whenever anything happened, what kind of chaos would this society be like?"
"134 years ago, there was a bear man like you who chased a robber in the city and crashed into a bus, killing all the twenty people on the bus. How can such a thing be considered? To put it bluntly,
Yes, ten years ago, someone helped catch a thief, but he got too strong and broke one of the thief's arms. The thief originally wanted to steal something to eat, but he didn't expect that he broke his arm like this. He came out with a grudge.
In my heart, I have committed multiple murders, including the family of the person who broke his arm, so how can this count?"
Renn had nothing to say. He couldn't understand how this world, a modern world with multiple races and extraordinary powers, should operate and what kind of laws should be enacted.
"But even if this is the case, there is no need to be sentenced to such a serious crime? After all, I am doing a good deed."
Captain Seven frowned. He found that this young man was very difficult to educate: "What bothers us the most is unprofessional people like you who interfere randomly and think they have done something great. You understand the customs and habits of various races.
Can you tell the strength of the criminal? Do you know how to act to avoid hurting innocent people? To put it simply, can you really be sure that the crime you see is what you think is the crime? Do you think you are
Doing good things may actually be doing bad things.”
"What's the meaning?"
"What if what you see is just an illusion?"
Captain Seven's words left Ren speechless, and he felt that his outlook on life had been impacted.
"But... But the fact this time is that I caught a criminal. It's not a misunderstanding?" Renn suddenly thought of something, and he quickly defended. Whether he will make mistakes in the future is another matter. This time he
He has indeed done a good deed, "Why do you still pursue my issue like this?"
Captain Seven replied calmly: "We can't leave this kind of thing to luck. If we encounter it, we must severely punish it, so that others can stop taking chances. This is the rule of Brica City, and the rule is
Not allowed......"
Before Captain Seven finished speaking, the iron door of the interrogation room was suddenly pushed open, and a man wearing a mask walked in.
"Let him go."
Captain Seven showed an expression of extreme astonishment: "Second Captain, what did you say? What he committed was a crime of bravery and justice, and he will be imprisoned for life!"
"I know, just let him go. This is what the above said."
"Above?" Captain Seven was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Even if it's what the higher ups mean, it won't work, the rules..."
The masked second captain interrupted him again: "It is also written in the rules that the senior management has the power to handle matters as appropriate. Now, let him go."
........
By the time Renn dragged his tired body back to Resburg University, it was already past five in the morning.
Thinking back on what happened in the past few days, Ren was troubled. He felt as if he was being pushed inexplicably and got involved in a lot of trouble.
When leaving the security team headquarters, he asked the second captain why he let him out and who was the person who let him out, but the other person refused to tell Ren a word and just told him to go back to school quickly.
It was around five o'clock in the morning at Raysburg University. It was just dawn, the street lights were still on on both sides of the road, and not a single person could be seen on the campus.
Except for an old gentleman sweeping the floor.
When passing by him, Ren nodded subconsciously to the other person. Now he just wanted to go back to the dormitory, have a good sleep, and forget all the troubles.
"There are very few students at this time." The old gentleman suddenly stood up and said to Ren, "I haven't seen any students at this time for a long time."
Ren turned around. He thought the school had some rules like curfew. Thinking that people here value rules more than their lives, he quickly explained: "I went there because of something...
.....Treat...Treat..."
At the end of the sentence, Ren's tone stuttered because he discovered that the old man in front of him was a ghost.
Although his body looks very solid, just like ordinary people, there is only a hollow blue light in the old man's eyes. And if you look carefully, his feet are slightly floating on the ground.
Seeing that Ren was frightened by him, the old man smiled slightly and said: "Don't be afraid, I have been working in this school for hundreds of years. Think about it, there are so many powerful teachers in the school, and they will not let a bad ghost stay here forever."
Are you ready?"
Renn breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the other party's words were clear and the rules were clear, unlike those ghosts and evil spirits who were unconscious and would harm people.
And the other party was right. How could evil spirits exist in a place like Resburg University?
It's like a magical story I read in my previous life. Aren't there many ghosts in the school in it?
Seeing Ren relax, the old man laughed: "I still remember the past, oh, when I was a child, about 600 years ago, in school at that time, many students got up to practice at four o'clock in the morning. However,
Nowadays, this practice is no longer popular. They all say that training time should be planned rationally, practice scientifically, and not over-practice. Moreover, schools now have begun to recruit non-supernormal people, those who do messy research, such as mathematics and computers. These students are all
It requires a good sleep, so I don’t let others practice babbling in the morning.”
Ren scratched his head, okay, this was another thing he hadn't thought of.
"Okay, I haven't seen anyone for a long time, so I just said a few more words. Seeing that you haven't slept all night, go back and have a rest." After the old man finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued to sweep the floor.
Ren saw that he had nothing else to say, and he was still a little nervous about being with a ghost in such a dark environment, so he said goodbye to the old man and set off back to the dormitory.
"Hey, that ghost is right. After a hard day today, you really should have a good rest." Back at the door of his dormitory, Renn said with a yawn while taking out his keys.
Fortunately, the school understood his situation and knew that others were not very happy to live with him, so it assigned Renn a single room, which saved him a lot of trouble.
But as soon as he opened the door, Ren was almost frightened and sat down on the ground.
In his dormitory, he saw a worn-out piece of armor standing in the middle of the room.
A deep and long crack on the head of the armor is the lost Ellenville Paladin armor.
