Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.

Early the next morning, many jailers came to the prison, opened the cells of Su Yang and Lin Anlan, and took them out to the place where prisoners were tried in the Chong Si Yuan.

Upon entering the hall, it was already filled with people. Not only were there people in official robes, but also many people in blue robes who sat at the head of the table, all glaring angrily at Su Yang. Soldiers holding spears stood on either side, and the hall was filled with a grim atmosphere.

Escorted by the jailers, Su Yang and his companion slowly walked into a cage. This cage was specially designed and built by the Chong Si Academy for the trial of high-level elementalists. Su Yang looked up and around and found that he only recognized Litt Lauss. He didn't recognize anyone else. Sigrid and Bo An were not present, which made Su Yang feel uneasy.

With three loud chimes, the trial officially began. A clerk-like man, holding a document, slowly walked to the front of the stage, first bowing to the presiding judge, Joel, and then to the other participants in the trial. He then announced in a loud voice: "Your Honorable Judges of the Court of Judicial Review, Your Excellencies, and His Highness the Blue-Robed Bishop of the Temple of Saints, the trial of the prisoners Su Yang and Lin Anlan now begins."

Sitting in the main seat of the judge's bench, Joel picked up a wooden plaque from the table, threw it into a wooden box beside him, and said solemnly, "Begin, read out the charges!"

The clerk then opened the document in his hand and loudly proclaimed: "Upon investigation by the Ministry of Justice, the criminal Su Yang is found guilty of operating a private gambling den. The criminal Lin Anlan is found guilty of assaulting the Ministry of Justice, the Royal City Garrison, and the Imperial Palace Guard. The trial will now be conducted on-site by Judge Joel."

After the clerk finished speaking, he left the room. "Hmm." Joel picked up the wooden plaque on the table and threw it into the wooden box next to him. He continued, "Regarding the crime committed by the criminal Su Yang, there are three witnesses: a casino employee and two casino gamblers. During the interrogation last night, all three identified Su Yang as the casino owner. At the same time, the casino employee has a letter of authorization from Su Yang, which is physical evidence."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "The crimes committed by the criminal Lin Anlan are all testified to by members of the Enforcement Team of the Imperial Judicial Bureau, the Third Squad of the Second Army of the Royal City Garrison, and the Imperial Palace Guard. Moreover, the people on the street witnessed the attack, so no physical evidence is needed. Now bring up the witnesses!"

The door on the other side of the hall opened, and the three men who had slandered Su Yang yesterday were brought out and seated in the witness box. As Joel tossed a wooden plaque into a crate, he asked the three men, "Were your statements yesterday true?"

The three nodded in unison and said, "It's true, absolutely true!"

"Okay, did Su Yang personally hand this power of attorney to you?" Joel picked up the "power of attorney" from the table again and asked.

The casino employee immediately replied, "Yes, Your Honor."

"Su Yang, do you have anything to say?" Joel turned to Su Yang again and asked.

Seeing the three men blatantly framing him, Su Yang's anger was reignited. When Joel asked him, Su Yang was no longer afraid of the strangers in the room and said clearly, "I didn't do it!"

"How dare you! The evidence is irrefutable, the proof is conclusive, and you still dare to argue!" Joel immediately roared in anger: "Guards, use torture!"

Several soldiers immediately stepped forward to retrieve the instruments of torture, but one of the men in the room stopped them, saying, "Wait!"

Joel looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Little Laus who had stopped him from using torture. He immediately changed his expression and asked respectfully, "Your Grace, why is this?"

“Isn’t it too hasty to convict someone based solely on the testimonies of these three individuals and an unverified letter of authorization?” Duke Litt said.

"What does His Excellency mean?" Joel asked.

“It’s simple. Compare the handwriting on the power of attorney with Su Yang’s handwriting. If they match, it can be used as a reference. In addition, we should check Su Yang’s recent whereabouts and the whereabouts of the casino staff to determine whether there is any contact between the two.” Litt offered two suggestions.

“This…” Just as Joel was about to speak, another voice interrupted him: “Duke Little, I have something else to report to the judge and the Blue Cardinal of the Temple of Saints.”

Litt looked over and saw that the speaker was Alban. Litt frowned and asked in confusion, "What is it?"

Alban rose from his seat, walked slowly to the front of the stage, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and respectfully said, "Please, scribe, hand this document to His Excellency the Blue Cardinal for his review."

The clerk stepped down and handed the paper from Olben to the blue-robed bishop for review. The bishop took it and frowned more and more as he read it, even slamming his hand heavily on the table. Olben, speaking from below the stage, said, "Some time ago, a major military secret of the Duchy was leaked, endangering the national security of the Duchy. The military specifically ordered me to investigate the demon spies hiding in the country. After tireless efforts, I finally found clues about the spies, but I didn't expect the Ministry of Justice to act so quickly and arrest the person first."

Then, Alban slowly turned around, pointed at Su Yang and said, "I have found out that the spies who infiltrated our country are Su Yang and Lin Anlan."

These words shocked everyone present, and they began to whisper among themselves. Duke Litt asked with some doubt, "How can you prove that Su Yang and Lin Anlan are spies?"

"My lords, please hear me out. Su Yang and Lin Anlan have only been in our Duchy of Paisen for half a year. Back in South Bay City, the local city lord had already put a bounty on their heads for espionage. They later escaped from South Bay City and came to the royal city, where they befriended the Duke's daughter, Miss Lena. Their purpose was to get close to the Duchy's high-ranking officials through Miss Lena in order to obtain confidential information. Furthermore! Lin Anlan's true identity is that of the former captain of the Blood Squad, a demon!"

Although it's unclear how Olben knew these things, once Lin Anlan's identity as a demon was revealed, the situation instantly shifted in Olben's favor. Especially with the Blue-Robed Bishop of the Saint's Temple present, no one dared to defend Su Yang and Lin Anlan, including Duke Litt. Even if he wanted to defend Su Yang and Lin Anlan, he had no way to do so. Colluding with demons and demons to steal important national intelligence was an act that the Duchy and the Saint's Church could not tolerate.

Su Yang and Lin Anlan looked at each other. Lin Anlan's eyes were full of guilt. She never expected that her identity would become evidence for others to frame Su Yang. The key was that she had no way to refute it. Therefore, Lin Anlan felt extremely guilty and said to Su Yang with tears in her eyes, "Su Yang, I'm sorry. I'm the one who hurt you."

She knew that espionage was a capital offense in any country on this continent, and even if they managed to escape, no country would accept them. Besides, both she and Su Yang's elemental bracelets had been taken away, leaving them with no way to resist. This panic made her mistakenly believe that Su Yang's X-level bracelet had also been taken away, and thus she was filled with despair.

Su Yang turned his gaze to Litt Laus, hoping he could still lend a hand. Litt sat in his seat, pondering for a long time, but ultimately there was nothing he could do. His daughter's whereabouts were currently unknown, and if it weren't for Sigrid's visit to the manor yesterday, he might not even be in this trial. Now, both the Court of Judicial Review and the Temple of Saints believe Su Yang is guilty, and guilty of serious crimes. No matter how much he helps, it will probably be of no use.

But he wanted to try again. After all, Su Yang was his daughter's friend, and he had successfully received Gu Wushuang's belongings. If his daughter came back and found out about this, she might blame him. There were precedents for this.

Just as Ritsu was about to speak, the hall door was pushed open, and a clear voice entered Ritsu's ears: "Father!" Ritsu looked over and saw that the person who came in was his daughter, Ritsu Lena, whom he had been searching for for several days. Following her in was Boan Xiu.

Litt rushed forward and pulled Lena into his arms, saying, "Lena! My dear daughter, where have you been these past few days? I was so worried about you."

Before Lena could speak, Bo'an shouted, "Your Grace, Judge, I have another charge against Su Yang: he kidnapped the Duke's daughter, Miss Litt Lena!"
