Comet Beauty [Interstellar]

The arraignment day for felons is the third Sunday in July.The pink acacia in the imperial capital blooms in the deep fence.According to the law, if the federal king at that time was unable to handle official duties, all the rights owned by the king would be handed over to the thirteen cardinals.In view of the extreme viciousness of the criminals being interrogated, the cardinal will set the interrogation site at the Palace of Mirrors, which symbolizes the judgment of the gods.With the help of A, Miller pretended to be the new secretary of a cardinal. Since the cardinal was slow in doing things, the criminal was being brought up when he entered the arena, and Eudemons couldn't help looking at the figure in the center of the arena.The entire Palace of Mirrors has a circular structure, and the judging platform is set up at the lowest level. Criminals can feel their eyes from all directions falling on them. This kind of structure imitating the Colosseum can undoubtedly exert great psychological pressure on people.

"Qing Changye," the judge broke the silence: "Do you admit your crime?"

The black-haired, black-eyed young man was expressionless, and his fair face was reflected on the floating screen.If it weren't for the bloody corpse of the king, no one would believe that such a beauty was the chief culprit who killed the king.His hands and feet are tied with chains made of high-density metal. Even a strong man with such a heavy shackle will bow his knees when he is given such a heavy shackle, but Qing Changye's spine is very straight, only his neck hangs slightly. Like a deer being targeted by wolves.

He didn't speak.

The eyes of many people at the scene changed after seeing the appearance of the criminal. She was really an outstanding beauty, and it was said that she would have been the prospective princess of the Federation.The two cardinals closest to the judgment stand exchanged glances, and they saw regret in each other's eyes.Edwin won the hearts of the people far more than they imagined. The little bastard of the year went all the way from the imperial capital to the battlefield, and finally climbed to the throne paved with thorns step by step.Complaints from the outside world almost broke through the door of the Cardinal Council, and countless people demanded that the murderer who killed the king be executed.The trial was just a formality. Unless the king came back from the dead, no one would be able to save the young man in today's trial.

"Qing Changye," the judge asked again, "do you admit that you killed a hero, a soldier, or a ruler of a country?"

Miller opened his mouth. If nothing else, the person who should have stood in that position was him.From a distance, he could feel an unspeakable sight. Miller turned his head slightly. Across the crowd, he saw a beautiful woman with golden curly hair.It is very eye-catching for a woman to appear in such a place, not to mention that she is so beautiful. Natasha's sapphire blue eyes looked at him without blinking.

take him away.

He recognized her mouth shape.

Obviously Natasha understood why he was here, and she had no intention of stopping him.He knew that they were companions before, and A also said that someone in the Cardinal Council deliberately delayed the trial. No one except Lanyue has that ability, and no one cares about Qing Changye's life as much as she does.She was buying them time.

This is really a strange thing, obviously she was the one who betrayed Qing Changye first, but she was the one who extended a helping hand again and again, Miller looked away.He really couldn't understand the girls' minds.

"I admit it." Qing Changye finally responded.

"You killed His Majesty," the judge continued: "The autopsy results showed that a sharp object pierced his chest in an instant. Your ability level is far lower than that of Your Majesty. Does this mean that you have accomplices?"

"Without an accomplice, I pierced his heart with a dagger." Qing Changye glanced at the judge, and he hooked his lips carelessly.The light smile on his pale face was amazing. Miller knew that during this week, Qing Changye was treated like a felon who had been on the blood list.He spent a week in the Federal Deadwater Prison, and after he came out of the dark room, his skin became whiter, as clear as the fine snow falling on a dead tree: "At that time he was kissing me, he didn't guard against my attack action."

Saying this sentence was tantamount to thunder on the ground. Some of the reporters who were allowed in frantically pressed the shutters. When Miller heard someone scolded shamelessly in a low voice, he clenched his hands tightly and then slowly loosened them.

"Do you know that His Majesty originally intended to marry you?"

"know."

"You admit that you used His Majesty's feelings for you to complete the assassination?"

"Yes."

The judge flipped over the LCD screen: "You and Your Majesty first met at the Madeleine Academy. After verification, you used a fictitious identity at the Madeleine Royal Academy. The forger invaded the federal database and tampered with the information of an Asian deceased. , This is a very professional operation, according to the investigation, you do not have this level of computer skills, does this mean that there is someone behind you to help or instigate?"

"No."

"Every word you say will affect your final conviction." The judge frowned: "Please don't lie, lies will only deepen the crime."

Qing Changye was silent for a moment, just when everyone thought this little episode would pass like this, a demagogic voice broke the silence.

"What about you, sir? You are the executive officer of the Council of Cardinals. Are you secretly applauding his death?"

"..." The judge was stunned for a moment. He obviously didn't expect him to ask such a question. The reporters activated their backup recorders while being startled. Some people already had a premonition that the upcoming conversation would involve some dark side of the Federation.The judge tapped the gavel: "No federal person with good moral character would secretly applaud His Majesty's death."

"Do you mean that everyone is a villain?" Qing Changye said softly: "You tried to take his life time and time again, but I killed him suddenly, and some gentlemen here are probably so happy that they can't sleep at night. "

"Qing Changye, do your words indicate that you are accusing the Cardinal Council?"

He raised his head, and the serious criminals were being tried on their knees, their hands and feet were tied together to the wooden cross behind them.Qing Changye is no exception.He remembered that Edwin once said that he had been on the trial platform of the Palace of Mirrors, after his mother strangled his father to death, he was only about eleven or twelve years old at that time, how could such a small child bear such a big And the fear of the unknown?

Qing Changye bit his lips, the tip of his tongue was slightly exposed, and the white teeth were faintly visible in his lips.The judge who confronted him couldn't help but miss a heartbeat because of this simple action, and the young man's eyes were like calm lakes: "I kneel here to be examined by you because I committed a crime, but you use his Judging me in name does not mean that you never thought of taking his life."

The gavel was slammed on the table. This trial was broadcast live across the Federation. If he continued to speak, something might happen.At the beginning, some cardinals thought that the live broadcast on the whole network was too risky, but considering the thoughts of the masses, and Qing Changye didn't seem to have true feelings for Edwin, the cardinals reluctantly agreed to this decision.The cardinal closest to the judge gave a wink, and the big man signaled him to end the trial quickly, and the judge cleared his throat.Someone suddenly stood up from his seat at this moment.

The light-colored long hair was scattered on the back, and the figure of the head maid was like a zhilanyushu. She walked up to the trial platform quickly, and her high-heeled shoes unscrupulously trampled on the rules of the Palace of Mirrors.Before the guards stopped her, she took out several stacks of materials.

"I have your Majesty's blood certificate, will and military medal here," the head maid went down to the bottom of the mirror palace, she walked up to Qing Changye, her tone was neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty is a lion-man hybrid, according to the federal law, he has military merits The mixed-breed alien beast enjoys an opportunity to be exempted from the law once in his life. His Majesty has never used this right. According to his will, he gave this right to Qing Changye to ensure that he will not bear any legal responsibility in this trial. .”

"What did you say?" A cardinal opened his eyes wide: "Edwin is a lion-man hybrid, so he doesn't even—"

"Your Majesty's mother is a half-blood lion," she interrupted: "Mr. Judge, you can read all the materials carefully. But it is against the law for any party to pursue Qing Changye's responsibility. Your Majesty will He was left with the right of innocence in life, and he is protected by that right at this trial."

Qing Changye lowered his head.

Whispering whispers passed by his ears, his wrist was aching from the alloy lock, and his eye sockets felt hot for a moment, but he must not act weakly on this occasion.As early as when he was in Madeleine, he knew that a hybrid animal with military merits could be exonerated for one crime. The boy who wanted to seduce Vera back then was confident because of this.Edwin has been hiding his identity as a strange beast.But Qing Changye never thought that the other party would hand over this precious opportunity to him, and... why did Edwin make a will?

His eyes fell on the head maid, who looked back at him as if she had sensed something.He knew that the entire Federation was probably crazy now, and the king would actually protect a murderer!The murderer killed the king himself, and he even made such an incredible will for him!You don't need to guess to know how infatuated the media reporters will portray Edwin.Everything that happened next was like a movie, the criminal who was sure to die was released from the trial bench, and the expressions of the thirteen cardinals were unpredictable.Until the chain representing judgment was taken off him, Qing Changye followed the head maid who was walking towards the side door in two or three steps.

"Wait a minute, please," he remembered her name: "Miss Lydia?"

"..." She didn't speak.

"Can I see that will?"

She sighed, and suddenly gave him all the documents that she held tightly in her arms.There are a lot of medals of different colors, which represent different degrees of military merit.There is the noblest and greatest gold, as well as the most common copper, these are the proofs of that person's climb up step by step.He saw the pedigree in it, Edwin was still a teenager in the photo, he had dazzling blond hair, green eyes, and a handsome face, smiling at the camera.The slightly frivolous appearance is exactly the same as the future king.

"I really... hate you."

He looked at her, and tears accumulated in the woman's eyes unconsciously, and the appearance of turning the tide on the judgment stand disappeared, she was like a fighter who had taken off her battle robe.Qing Changye saw clearly the handwriting on the will, which was not actually a will at all, it seemed to be just a sentence written by Edwin in his spare time.It was written on an envelope inlaid with carved white jade, Qing Changye recognized this, it was originally a wedding invitation.Edwin's handwriting is elegant and cursive, which doesn't quite match his sloppy appearance.

[If something happens to me, I will take all my things to protect Xiaoye.

Although I won't have any accidents, and I don't plan to let others watch him for me, but I still have to protect Xiao Ye... Uh, I'm going to be moved.

First wish me a happy wedding? 】

Edwin's signature is a lion's head drawn in two or three strokes. To be honest, the face of the cartoon lion is like a sunflower.Qing Changye couldn't help touching those handwritings lightly, his eyes revealed some very touching feelings unconsciously.

"I didn't want to come up just now," Lydia looked at him and shed tears: "If it weren't for your last few words, I would never have come up to help you. I want you to be buried with him. He said Maybe he will be happier, but he will definitely be angry and resent why I didn’t save you. He and I are comrades-in-arms, on the surface I am his head maid, but in private I have handled many things for him.”

"..."

"I really..." Lydia covered her face: "At that time you were still studying in Madeleine, we were trapped on the Zerg planet that time, he was seriously injured and he was about to die, the technician repaired the communicator, everything People were waiting for him to contact headquarters for help, but he called you. He later told me that he had a crush on one of his students, who was very bright and had black eyes."

"..."

"I've been thinking these days, if I didn't bring you back to him when I let you be taken away by the group of mermaids in the Vatican, or hunted down No. [-], would the result be different? If you left his body and ran You can't see these things. You seem to be born to bring disaster to everyone." Lydia smiled palely, tears running down her beautiful face, Qing Changye has seen many women cry.Most of them cried and tried to keep him when they found out that he had cheated on them, but no woman made him suffer like Lydia when she cried.The head maid's light-colored eyes were red: "But what to do, he likes you."

"He loves you so much, likes you so much...why are you willing to let him die?"
