"By the way, Judge Smith, I have something I'd like to ask you."

Xiao Ce changed the subject and asked.

Smith nodded: "Mr. Ce, your cooperation and honesty have saved us a lot of trouble... So, please feel free to ask any questions you have. I will answer them to the best of my ability..."

Boudica looked at Xiao Ce with a puzzled expression.

At this moment, she really didn't know what Xiao Ce wanted to ask.

Xiao Ce's eyes gleamed with a sly glint: "Judge Smith, I just want to ask, are the terms in the gladiatorial treaty they gave us still valid?"

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Judge Smith revealed a subtle smile.

He then said, "Of course."

Xiao Ce continued, "Then how do I follow their demands and have them fulfill the contents of their gladiatorial treaty? Should I go directly to them?"

Smith smiled at Xiao Ce and said, "You can go directly to them, but given their current state, they might not be willing to comply... So, you can try to find them through the arena to fulfill their obligations..."

Xiao Ce asked Smith, "Your Honor, what if they refuse to comply?"

Smith smiled and then said to Xiao Ce, "If they dare to refuse to comply... the laws of Lingas City are not to be taken lightly. One thing at a time! Since there is no problem between them and you, then you can go after them... Besides, they were the ones who initiated the contact and made the request."

"All the wins and losses in your gladiatorial combats are recorded..."

Xiao Ce nodded.

Boudica listened to what Xiao Ce said.

I just remembered.

Actually, she had completely forgotten about this matter.

When they initiated the duel, there were extremely humiliating conditions, such as kissing shoes and publicly apologizing.

Later, due to their crushing defeat, they subsequently defaulted on a series of contracts.

They were swindled by John Jonard and his gang.

Later, the two of them betrayed each other.

They're too lazy to kick a man when he's down...

However, these two dogs that had fallen into the water not only climbed out again, but also bared their teeth at them.

Naturally, they must be dealt with severely within the rules.

Xiao Ce listened and said to the presiding judge, "Alright, Your Honor, thank you!"

The presiding judge smiled and said to Xiao Ce, "It's alright, I was just giving a normal interpretation."

Xiao Ce said to the presiding judge, "Judge Smith, as for those agents and representatives of the twelve families, we don't know if they would send gunmen to frame them after they lost money. I can't frame them based on things I don't know."

"However, one thing is clear to me. This gunman was definitely not hired by a group, but by one of them... So, some of the other companies may not know about it. They've just been dragged into this mess. I believe that when disaster strikes, everyone flees for their own lives... So, I believe that the innocent will clear themselves... Just like us, those who haven't done anything won't have any scruples."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Smith suddenly understood, and his eyes brightened considerably.

Xiao Ce seemed to be distancing himself from the situation, but in reality, he was giving Smith advice.

Smith was overjoyed; Xiao Ce's instructions immediately showed him what to do.

We were indeed in a predicament before.

Although the gunmen made their accusations, they already had a history of making indiscriminate accusations.

Therefore, their testimony no longer serves as a basis for prosecution.

If there is no other evidence or testimony, then this case will ultimately have to be dropped.

However, Xiao Ce's seemingly unintentional remark was actually a subtle suggestion.

Smith suddenly realized what was going on.

They are not a united front; once they want to protect themselves, they will surely tell the truth.

However, Smith didn't show much joy on the spot.

After all, Xiao Ce had already helped him.

He couldn't let Xiao Ce get involved any more.

"Mr. Ce, you're right. The innocent will clear themselves, and I believe... the truth will eventually come out. If I bring the gunman to justice one day, I will definitely treat you to a meal..."

Xiao Ce smiled without saying a word, and then left.

After they boarded the carriage, Boudica said to Xiao Ce, "Ce, you just gave some pointers to that Smith, didn't you? Why did you do that? Aren't we still going to use John Jonard and the others?"

Seeing that Boudica had understood his actions, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "That's right, I do need to use them, but these people are too united. I need some discord among them... so we can cooperate better..."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Boudica laughed, "Haha, not bad... not bad... Ce, you really are amazing... So, do you want to have them fulfill the contents of that gladiatorial treaty simply to see them make a fool of themselves, or..."

Xiao Ce said to Boudica, "Actually, I just wanted to see them make a fool of themselves... Of course, if they behave themselves and let me successfully complete this Dark Light press conference... I won't have any objections..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Boudica immediately gave him a thumbs up.

Then, Da Lei said to Boudica, "By the way, sir, there are quite a few people following us outside..."

Xiao Ce said, "Let them follow if they want... We're going straight to the arena now... We're not afraid for them to know what we're doing..."

After Xiao Ce finished speaking, he went straight to the arena without saying another word.

He then spoke with the people in the arena, insisting on fulfilling their gladiatorial agreement.

The people in the arena naturally supported him, and they treated Xiao Ce with considerable politeness.

After all, Xiao Ce and Boudica were the most sought-after figures in Lingas City...

“Ms. Boudica, please rest assured... we will immediately convey your commitment to the contract and give you a reply tomorrow. Afterwards, we will need you to provide a time and place for the contract to be fulfilled... we will handle the notarization..."

Boudica listened and said, "Alright, then I'll leave it to you! Go tell them to prepare, and once they're ready, I'll set the time and place. Also, please tell them that we're not intentionally making things difficult for them; this is their own proposal, their own gladiatorial agreement, and since they lost, they have to abide by it. If they don't want to, we're open to private negotiations..."
