Chapter 109 Wounded
The sun is rising.
The red sun and the scarlet sunlight shine on people, and the hills inexplicably add a sense of solemnity.
The guards who were beaten away by the cavalry brought by Marquis of Seajac were moaning in a low voice. The cavalry were extremely fierce, and the whip was whipped on the person, and their clothes were broken, and the whip was cut like a knife, which was more than half an inch deep into the muscles.
Blood was flowing, mixed with the sunlight, which was very dazzling.
Seajac came to Joe, his skinny old face squirmed. He squinted his eyes and threatened Joe with a low voice: "Joe Rong Weitu, do you know what you said just now is slandering an old man who has worked diligently for the empire for the rest of his life?"
"The shameless old thing!" Qiao gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence from the gaps of his teeth.
Since the day the special investigation team was established, Director Stein secretly spoke out the true face of Marquis Seajac, Joe has been full of disgust towards this old guy.
At this moment, since this old marquis, who was so useless, why did Qiao give him a good look?
Joe thought about it and said that with Duke Ross as his backer, the Vitu family probably didn't have to be afraid of Seajac.
"You..." Seajac's old face went from red to pale, from pale to ashen, and then returned to a red face, and the skin on the end was a little red and purple.
With a "huh", Seajac held the cane in his right hand and lifted it forward hard, and the metal rod head hit Joe's lower abdomen.
No one expected that the old marquis, the chief executive of the Imperial Intelligence Headquarters in the south of the Empire, would attack Qiao in public, and he would suddenly attack the vitals with a nearly sneak attack.
Even Joe didn't expect Seajac to be so shameless.
The head of the snake-shaped metal rod hit Qiao's lower abdomen with a dull bang. With a "bang", the thick layer of flesh on Qiao's belly was rippling violently. The clothes and pants near his lower abdomen exploded, and they exploded into countless pieces of cloth the size of a thumb.
Qiao's uniforms are all good products customized by the Vitu family at a high price. The uniform jacket on the upper body is inlaid with a layer of steel wire mesh that can withstand the assassination of a dagger.
Seajac's blow was extremely heavy, and there was a strange shock force that kept shaking. The coat was shattered, and even the wire mesh was shaken into broken wires.
Some of the steel wires were blown away by the strong wind, while others pierced into Qiao's flesh, and immediately bloody wounds were sprayed out.
Joe's body shook and staggered backwards. He looked at Seac with a gloomy face. While he was retreating, blood oozing out from the corner of his mouth. Under his broken clothes, there was a red red piece of fist-sized flesh. In just a few breaths, this red red was faintly blue.
"Your Excellency?" Lilith, who was standing beside her, widened her eyes in shock, and looked at Seac with a look of at a loss.
"Bastard!" Ya, Sigens, Iron Mule, and several old men from the Vitu family rushed towards Seajac at the same time. They did not expect that Seajac would actually make such a heavy hand, and in full view of so many people.
The Cicilles, the Leidens, the Barretts, the Haydns, the Dorons, the Kabans, and the others present were all at a loss and stood there in a daze.
On one side is Joe, the second young master of the Weitu family who has just become the uncrowned king of Tulum Port, and Hesen and Leah's most doting baby son.
On the one hand, he holds real power and has strong connections at the top of the empire. He is also the head of the Imperial Intelligence Headquarters in Tulum Port. The power of this old guy, Seajac, who has the rank of marquis, is not only limited to Tulum Port and surrounding provinces, but also is responsible for collecting intelligence on several countries near Tulum Port and even the Black Continent on the other side of the Storm Ocean.
Help Joe and Seajac go against it? No one of them dares to do this without the family's authorization.
Help Seagull punish Joe? It seems that this is even more inappropriate...
A group of people stayed in place, one by one, silent, as if they were still motionless like a statue.
Nearly a thousand guards and sailors from the Vitu family were responsible for guarding the arrested more than a thousand men and women, among the thousands of people jointly organized by the various families, the guards and sailors of the Vitu family rushed towards this side loudly and insulted.
Hundreds of cavalry in black uniforms and round hats ran wildly. They waved their horse whips toward the rushing guards of the Vitu family, and the sailors whipped wildly.
The escorts of the Vitu family did not use guns. They drew out swords, sabers, axes, iron rods and other weapons, and formed a group of these cavalrymen.
As soon as the two sides fought, everyone present could see that the Vitu family's escorts and sailors were much worse than those of these cavalrymen. Especially in terms of cooperation, the two sides were even worse.
The cavalrymen were free to advance and retreat, and cooperated with each other to gain the advantage of the mount. When they clashed back and forth, more than 400 subordinates of the Vitu family were whipped to the ground by the horse whip, and some were trampled by the hooves of the war horses. The bones of their arms and calf were cut off, and their limbs were twisted strangely.
"Get out!" Qiao covered hissing abdomen, which was so painful that he shouted loudly.
Hundreds of subordinates of the Weitu family, who were scattered in formation, were stunned. They glanced at Qiao, gritted their teeth one by one, and supported their companions who were knocked to the ground, and slowly retreated to the side.
Seajac looked up at Qiao in shock, and then quickly glanced over the bruise on Qiao's lower abdomen that had begun to turn black.
Seajac attacked hard in that attack just now.
But Qiao's voice just now was full of energy, and the damage he suffered was obviously not as heavy as Seajac had expected... Seajac's eyes flashed, and he narrowed his eyes and looked at the teeth blocking his face, Si Gengs, Iron Mule and others.
"For today's events, your Weitu family must give the Imperial Intelligence Headquarters an explanation."
Seajac held the monocle glasses on the bridge of his nose with his left hand and said calmly: "I don't pursue my personal insults. Young people, even if they make mistakes and learn lessons, they will naturally learn to be more well-behaved in the future."
"However, the Vitu family wants to murder the intelligence officer of the Imperial Intelligence Headquarters and seize the funds for the activities of the Intelligence Headquarters... You Vitu family must give the Intelligence Headquarters an explanation."
Seajac held the snake-headed stick with the cane in his right hand. The cane hit the ground heavily. The ground within a radius of dozens of feet was slightly vibrating, making a loud bang like a shelling sound.
Within this range, people with a slightly weaker strength only feel that their bodies are constantly shaking, and it becomes very difficult to stand firmly.
"You must understand a fact...the work of the Intelligence Department, the secrets of the Empire, what you do today, I can understand it as your betrayal of the Empire, your unfaithfulness to the Empire!"
Qiao coughed heavily, and he spitted two mouthfuls of blood on the ground, put his hands on his hips, and walked to the side of his teeth step by step.
"Mr. Seajac, don't say these scary words, the Vitu family is not afraid of threats... When I was five or six years old, when I was just starting to remember, the Wells family's puppies threatened to kill all my family and let the Vitu family sink into the sea."
"From now on, twelve or three years have passed, and the Vitu family is living well, but the puppies who threatened us back then are going to the gallows."
Qiao pushed away the teeth and Sigens who were blocking her hands and came to Seac again.
He lowered his head, put his face in front of Seajac's face, and said word by word: "You can throw dirty water on the Vitu family unscrupulously because your position has such power... But please remember that Vitu family is not so easy to bully."
Seajac was silent for a while, then smiled contemptuously: "Master Qiao, is this your attitude towards an old man and an imperial marquis?"
Joe touched the hot bruise on his belly. He tilted his head and smiled at Seac: "When that happened just now, if it were an ordinary person, he would be dead now, right? Do you want to kill me?"
Ya, Si Gengsi, Tie Mule and others' expressions suddenly changed.
The monkey squatting on Sigensi's shoulder broke a banana and swallowed the banana meat in a few bites. He held the banana peel in both hands and stared at Seac with a sneaky face.
Seajac certainly won't pay attention to a monkey.
He looked at Qiao calmly and said calmly: "You once again slandered an old nobleman of the empire with noble morality... Qiao, do you know that what you say and do today is causing trouble to your Vitu family."
"The Weitu family is not afraid of trouble..." Qiao coughed, turned his head, and vomited a large mouthful of blood on the ground.
He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice: "You said Chuck and the others are your subordinates, and their goods are the materials raised by the Intelligence Headquarters...what is the evidence?"
The Marquis of Seajac smiled slightly, and he hooked his finger behind him.
A man in black took two steps forward, opened a cowhide briefcase, pulled out a stack of documents, and handed them to the Marquis of Seajac.
Marquis Seajac patted the documents on his hand, pointed to the scarlet 'top secrets' line of handwriting on his head, and sneered: "Are you sure you want to check these evidences? The top secrets of the empire, do you know what the outcome will happen if someone with insufficient authority checks?"
Joe had already reached out his hand, but when he saw the scarlet "top secret" on his head, his hand suddenly froze.
Even if his grades at Tulun Port Judicial College were bad, he had been in it for three years, and he still knew some of the most basic common sense.
If the empire's "top secret" is not the owner of the relevant authority, who dares to spy on it, it will be a death sentence.
Even if an empire official like Duke Ross had privately spyed on the "top secrets" of the empire that had nothing to do with her, she might not die, but it is possible to lose his title, imprisonment, or even life imprisonment.
And a small person like Qiao... If he dares to take over the documents in Seajac, even if he touches them a little, it will cause great trouble to the entire Vitu family.
"You won...Flying Fish Chuck, and all the goods in the stack of three companies are yours!"
