Chapter 1 The Hidden Young Prosecutor (Part 2)
Tulinus's nails wedged into the door frame tightly, and creaked. He felt that he had no way out at all, and could not help but shout, "You bastard, you descendant of the Greek clan, you and your equally dirty and despicable father, listen, the first thing I did when I went out was to kill you all, throw the body into the drainage ditch, and drain it straight into the mud of Takun swamp!"
"I also have the same idea as you. Turinus.n∈ Why did you inherit Caesar's legacy? Isn't it just because of a miserable bloodline? What was your Octavian family? Your father was just a lowly currency exchanger. Now it's our Phillips family's turn to rise, so this is a decisive battle between Turinus, either you die or I die. I will never allow myself to escape without a fight. Just treat this place as a sandy land soaked in blood, Turinus!" On the other side, little Phillips also made a horn of a fight.
Then, Little Philip immediately, as the prosecutor, clamored to block the trial team's request to close the case, because "everything is not finished"!
"I want to announce this biggest scandal to the world, that is, Caesar's successor, who actually has to bribe the judges to escape his guilt, so I need to summon the most important witness, that is, the son of the high priest and the former adjutant of the envoy in the province of Sicily, Leo of the Emilius family came!" As soon as Little Philip finished speaking, countless people in the seats in the court were sitting on pins and needles, cursing and screaming one after another, and the people sitting outside in the square and tower were also whispering, and many even opened gambling games to bet money for the progress of the situation.
In short, this is simply the most revolving trial in Roman history. At least one of them.
Bisuo could only sigh and sit down again. Touching his sore waist, complaining, and then the knight and the judge surrounded the judge without any expression and asked what the respected old inspector should do now?
"Now you have accepted a large amount of bribes, so come and ask me?" Bi Suo said with annoyance as if he was frosted.
The knights and the judiciary were about to cry, and they whispered that it was sent by the high priest and his son. They had no courage to refuse to accept it.
"This is a scandal. The only way to remedy now is to ask Phillips to continue to summon witnesses." Bisso and Pansa finally answered helplessly.
Cicero smiled proudly, sat upright in the auditorium, shaking the corner of his robe, and watched Leo slowly walk into the court. Now the setting sun was pouring onto the marble floor of the court, but his interest was still high. It seemed that the pride drama had just been brought to the stage.
"Why are you wearing mourning clothes?" Little Phillips asked Leo, who was standing under the patio.
"Because I'm wearing it on your behalf, the role you play in this tragedy is worthy of my clothes." Leo retorted, which caused bursts of laughter and booing, but Little Phillips was not excited and annoyed. He just smiled and asked Leo, "Do you admit that you bribed six legal officers and nine Knight judges last night? The power and financial resources of the Emilius family were so eye-catching that two hundred Tarent's gold and silver were spread out in one night. This is also a kind of ability to look up to it, right?"
"I think this situation has nothing to do with the current case. If you think I have bribed, please sue me separately. Of course, after the end of this case, Leo continued to remain silent.
"Okay, but the following question is definitely related to this case." As he said, Phillips raised his words, "This is the testimony provided by the envoy of Sicily Province Marclus in ten thousand justice. He is sorry for his future arrival, but it is said very clearly - that is, before, before the mutiny of the Twin Legion, Turinus had written privately to Leo, who had enforced the provincial and executive houses, who wanted to borrow five hundred Tarant from him to relieve the urgent need for military funds."
Leo was silent, while Phillips Jr. continued to be aggressive and asked three times in a row.
"Yes, it is true, but I quickly submitted an impeachment to the provincial meeting and did not give a single Asi to Turinus." Leo defended, "so this kind of thing is not related to Turinus. He was wrong, and I corrected it."
"But have you ever thought that Tulinus would hate you from this, and then he instructed Sifax and Bitaas to instigate the Twin Legion to attack Lilibi City and attempt to kill you?"
"I think you're talking nonsense. If this is your first time in court, I can then throw you into the dungeon on the charge of slander." Leo replied with some angrily.
"But the only one who was thrown into the dungeon in the end was Turinus!" Little Phillips then showed the evidence of the account book again, "But the copy of the account book I obtained from the Executive Yuan and the Vault of the Sicily Province clearly showed that not long after the letter from Turinus was sent, there were really five hundred Tarents worth of money and supplies, carried from Lilibahar toward the Epirus area!"
The audience was about to explode, and many elders stood up one after another, stretched their necks to see the numbers and signatures on the copy of the account book. Leo looked incredible and shouted to Little Phillips, "There is no seal on this, this is perjury!"
"That's right, so you've been completely deceived. Turinus had already bribed the documents around you, stole your seal, and instructed Vonteuus to plan all this. Not only that, he would also let the Twin Legion kill you, and then blame all the blame on Vonteuus and blind the entire republic with illusions! Then he could control the country and follow the terrible trajectory left by his adoptive father, which was to eliminate opponents and political enemies and become the king of the Romans again." Little Phillips looked around, full of confidence, and then he raised another word board again, "Wonteuus has admitted all this, thank you for your hard work, which is why I abandoned Turteuus, because he treats everyone as a slave and tool that can be used." Little Phillips finished speaking, and slapped Leo's arm, as if comforting the other party.
Now, everyone's eyes in the court turned to Tulinus standing in front of the door, including the high priest with a look of surprise.
"You are slandering for no reason, because everyone knows that I will soon become the son-in-law of the high priest, and Leo is my righteous brother. We grew up in the neighborhood together, playing the walnut throwing game, and studying at the Apollonia Academy together, right? Is it? Leo, and my father's guardian, I, I grew up in your eyes. How could I have any thoughts of trapping you? I can make the most poisonous vow to prove myself to all the gods!" Turinus looked at everyone, tears burst out from his eyes, and shouted hysterically.
