Facing the serious faces of the two sailors, Keli suddenly struck by lightning, and muttered in his mouth: "How can this be like this?"
But while he said, he was still taken out involuntarily, just around the corner of the street, Kerry suddenly saw a pair of deep eyes with mockery and laughter on the other side of the street, Kerry suddenly understood everything, he couldn't help but struggle frantically, pointed at Fang Senyan and shouted hoarsely: "Sailor, do you think it's okay to find someone to frame me, no, let me tell you, this is impossible, I have worked hard for so long, how can I be brought down by your fabricated charges You wait and see, I will be released in an hour, You can't condemn me at all, and my firm will still stand in Port Royal."
This time Kerry really didn't lie, you know, at this time, it is a very troublesome thing to buy real estate in Port Royal, it definitely doesn't mean that you can get it if you have money, just like in the real world to get land in the city center, in fact, even Fang Senyan is currently not qualified to own his own property in Tetuga, which is difficult to imagine The backer behind Kerry is also a powerful figure in Port Royal, called "Ben Philemin" Sir Blaming, who is also one of the councillors of Port Royal, can lead the trend of public opinion, and the general public opinion believes that once Governor Swann leaves office, then Sir "Ben Phileming" is the only choice to take over as Governor, and his status can be seen from this.
Of course, it's not enough to just have a backer, but Kerry is a very careful person, and he does have a behavior of going si, but a cautious style coupled with a clean hand tail, and a variety of complete entry and exit catalogs.
Therefore, Kerry can say with certainty that even if the court conducts a strict search, Fang Senyan will definitely not be able to find his own evidence.
If you rely on the means of perjury without evidence and try to convict people by virtue of favoritism, then you can only be born in a guy who has no backing, which is simply impossible for yourself, so Kerry will confidently release his words and say that he will be released in an hour.
In the courtroom, it was as if everything was playing out according to Kerry's script.
The trial for Kerry's murder began first.
The prosecution's case paled in comparison, the murder charges were quickly acquitted, and Kerry was in fact looking forward to the moment when he raised his middle finger in front of Fang Senyan after he left soon.
The next personnel who had gone to search Kerry's house returned, and they looked at each other with a poker face, showing no joy at all, and under the supervision of the inspector, they began to read out the list of goods piled up in the warehouse of the comptoir, and demanded that Kerry explain the origin of the goods.
Kerry was able to recite everything he could, answering questions and answers seamlessly, even giving the ins and outs of every tax payment, and even pointing out that one of the gentlemen on the jury could prove it.
Soon, even Sir Ben Phileming came forward to complain that it was clearly a premeditated act of false accusation intended to tarnish the reputation of a law-abiding citizen.
If the court pursues it further, it will be like a bunch of clowns who have been toyed with in the palm of their hands.
In the face of Sir Ben Philemin's questioning, the judge's face was also quite ugly, but at this time, the prosecution raised his hand and said meaningfully: "I only need to ask one more question to Mr.
Kerry, the last question, I hope the judge will allow it." ” In the face of the prosecutor's final counterattack, Kerry was full of confidence in victory, and he didn't even smell the strong smell of conspiracy in the above sentence, and said very simply: "You ask."
However, if your question does not convict me, then I hope that my wife will be released in court. ” "No problem."
The prosecution's prosecutor said meaningfully.
He then lifted the list and began to read the last item of the list aloud: "My last question is, please explain the origin of the huge sum of 21,316 gold lists in your shop.
Kerry was suddenly frozen, he felt that he had suddenly sunk deep into a whirlpool of conspiracy, and his whole body was cold, and he suddenly shouted frantically: "This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible, there are only more than a thousand cash in my firm" There was a mocking look in the prosecutor's eyes: "Oh, the prisoners I meet usually shout helplessly with such acting skills, unfortunately, none of them can escape the punishment of the law Mr.
Kerry, maybe you think it's a good idea to hide the gold list, But unfortunately, the lads I sent out all have the noses of hunting dogs, the eyes of eagles, the ears of bats, and if you commit a crime, then they will follow the clues you have left behind."
At this time, Kerry saw Fang Senyan next to the window outside the courtroom, the latter was smiling at him, saying goodbye to an old friend as if saying goodbye, and the desperate Kerry immediately shouted as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "I know, Mr.
Judge, someone framed me and someone hid 20,000 gold bills in my shop to frame me." ” Kerry's remark caused a burst of laughter among the jury below.
At this time, several sailors struggled to carry a large box to the courtroom, and then opened it.
The glow of the gold coin filled everyone's eyes in an instant.
"What a happy frame-up this is," Mr.
Prosecutor began to exclaim: "Mr.
Kerry, I have dealt with pirates, smugglers, thieves, prostitutes, and murderers for more than thirty years, and countless criminals have been brought to justice by me, and I believe that the people who hate me must be ten times the people who hate you, but so far, I have not been framed by twenty thousand, oh no, even if it is the honor of twenty lists." ” "Okay, even if we accept the framing of the small probability event, but the volume and weight of the 20,000 gold coins have been completely presented in front of us, this is not a few shillings that can be carried away in the KU pocket, this is 20,000 gold coins, this is a bulky cargo that needs to be carried by two adults."
"If someone brings 20,000 bills to my house, then I believe that several neighbors will know about it, Mr.
Kerry, if you are to tell us, this expensive 20,000 bills of false accusations have entered your shop without any interest being noticed Then I have reason to believe that you are insulting me, no, insulting the intelligence of our judges, all the juries, and even the onlookers outside the windows. ” Sir Ben Phileming stood up with a calm face, and when everyone thought he would say something, he took up his cane, put on his civilized hat and left without saying a word.
The secondary reason for the unusually ugly face of this respected sir, of course, is that he has just been slapped in the face by the prosecutor, but the main reason is that Kerry has earned a profit of 20,000 gold lists, and he has not received the dividends he deserves From this, it can even be presumed heart-wrenching and desperate that there are 20,000 more gold lists in the shop searched today, yesterday, the day before yesterday, last week, and last month, how many cute little golden things that should belong to them have been hacked Sir Ben Phileming felt that his sacred feelings had been tarnished, and that the man he hated most in his life was those who deceived him.
The ensuing trial was almost uncontested, and Kerry went from being a respectable gentleman to a hard servant, and Mr.
Norrington worked hard, so there was a shortage of manpower for a large number of infrastructure projects in Port Royal.
Mr.
Kerry's trading house, shops, and all other movable and immovable property were confiscated.
In other words, everything that Kerry had worked so hard to build was wiped out in front of the 20,000 gold list that Fang Senyan had lightly smashed Kerry, who was escorted down in prison clothes, had a hysterical madness in his eyes, he looked at the place where Fang Senyan began to stand, and suddenly laughed wildly: "Do you think you won, do you think I will only passively fight back?"
If Fang Senyan witnessed Kerry's expression at this time, then he would definitely be careful to take precautions, unfortunately, the god of luck did not follow Fang Senyan forever, the cold reality was that Fang Senyan could not see this scene. ，， There was nothing worth mentioning, Fang Senyan left two people on the dock to keep an eye on Captain Jack's whereabouts, and then returned to his ship.
Preparations for the next day's auction began.
In addition, Fang Senyan also had to arrange various matters, such as the problem of receiving and being hunted down once his identity was discovered, and the morale of those pirates who could not go ashore, etc.
That night, Fang Senyan went to bed early, but he didn't forget to leave the people on duty at night.
But just as he slept in the middle of the night, he suddenly smelled a very light and faint breath in his nose.
Suddenly, Fang Senyan bounced up from the chuáng, and after he took a deep breath, he was immediately sure that there was a faint smell of blood in the air At this time, the reef and Mogansha also woke up at the same time, and the three of them felt at the same time that there was an abnormal silence in all directions, and even the original insect chirping on the island could not be heard.
But if you look closely, in addition to the rhythmic sound of the waves crashing on the beach, there is also an indescribable ticking sound, which is the sound of blood slowly soaking through the cracks in the upper deck and dripping onto the lower deck
