"You just said that things can't be tampered with or copied, right?"
Ouyang Yiyong heard the key point of this sentence because he noticed that the image crystal had lost its original luster after it finished playing. Since it couldn't be tampered with or copied, didn't that mean that the evidence was gone?
"Yes, the image crystal can't be tampered with or copied, and it can only be used once, so it can't be faked. We all saw it."
The enthusiastic man explained again and emphasized that he had seen the video just played. The crowd had also seen it.
"What did you see? Why didn't I see it?"
Ouyang Yiyong suddenly changed the topic. As a law enforcer, he was lying with his eyes open. Not only was he lying, but he also turned around and asked the other law enforcers around him.
"Did you see anything?"
The law enforcers also spoke up for him.
"We didn't see anything."
"No, we saw someone stealing and being stopped here."
Well, these guys actually wanted to overturn the case. According to the laws of Silver City, a conviction required witnesses and material evidence. There were witnesses because many onlookers had seen it. However, the physical evidence image crystal could only be played once, and now it had finished playing. The crowd had seen it, but the city lord hadn't.
Originally, the law enforcers were present to collect evidence on behalf of the city lord. But now the law enforcers had collectively changed their minds and said that they hadn't seen the video. They only saw Du Feng stealing and being stopped at the door.
"The Ouyang family is really shameless. Do they think we don't exist?"
So many people had seen the video just now, but they dared to deny it. They were too arrogant. Of course, the crowd came out to refute and called for everyone to sit down and testify. However, things were not as he had imagined. There weren't many people willing to testify.
Except for a few people who had good relations with the Linghu family, the others were silent. No one wanted to offend the Ouyang family or the Linghu family, so they pretended that they didn't know anything. Some people were even ready to leave.
As for Du Feng's theft, the shop assistant was a witness. The law enforcers had stopped him at the time. As for the material evidence, it was naturally the cultivation technique book. It could be said that they had all the material evidence.
As for the matter of the shop assistant framing Du Feng, the material evidence had been destroyed, and there weren't many witnesses. Several people who had a good relationship with the Linghu family said one thing, but the shop assistants and the law enforcers said another. Both sides insisted on their own words, and it was impossible to judge who was true.
Du Feng had finally taken out the Shadow Crystal to reverse the situation. Could it be that they would reverse it again?
"I can testify that there was indeed a video that showed the situation in the shop."
A man squeezed through the crowd and walked over. He seemed to want to testify. However, everyone was shocked when they saw who it was. This person was actually Young Master Gong Yang. It wasn't easy for his two cousins to frame Du Feng. Why did he have to stand up as a witness? What was going on?
To put it bluntly, the Ouyang family had plotted to frame Du Feng not only to attack the Linghu family, but also to avenge Young Master Ram.
"I saw it. The video just now showed Du Feng being caught for stealing. What does Young Master Linghu mean by waiting outside? Could it be that he's his accomplice? "
In the end, this Young Master Ram was even more ruthless. Not only did he want to frame Du Feng, but he also wanted to frame Linghu Yunce. So many people had seen the content of the video before. At this moment, they actually wanted to turn black into white.
"You … you're really too shameless."
Several enthusiastic people couldn't stand it anymore. The facts were in front of them, but they could still turn it around. However, it was useless for them to be anxious, because the patrol in this area was under Ouyang Yiyong's control, and the law enforcers were also his colleagues. There weren't many people who really dared to stand up for justice. Everyone either bowed their heads and pretended not to see it, or they simply left.
"Young Master Ram, are you sure you saw it? Framing others will have to be punished."
Du Feng originally said that it was the Ouyang family's bookstore that framed him, and that the punishment should be borne by the Ouyang family. Unexpectedly, seeing that things had changed, Young Master Ram couldn't hold it in anymore. This matter had originally arisen because of him, so it was good to solve it together.
"I saw it clearly. It was you who stole."
Young master Ram spoke eloquently and patted his chest loudly.
"Very good. Look at what this is."
Du Feng nodded, agreeing with Young Master Ram's attitude. Then, he reached out and took out another thing. That's right, it was the recording image crystal.
"You … you actually have more!"
This time, not only was Young Master Ram dumbfounded, but the people from the Ouyang family, the bookstore's staff, and the shopkeeper were all dumbfounded. Du Feng was really a pervert. He went to the bookstore with an image crystal to record, and he even recorded more than one.
"Of course I have more, and there's a lot of them."
As he spoke, Du Feng took out a few more. Every one of them was flickering with brilliant lights, and it was obvious that there were already contents stored inside. Unless they killed Du Feng and snatched all the Image Crystals, they wouldn't be able to do so. Otherwise, if they provided the evidence to the City Lord Residence, this matter would definitely be reversed.
"What's going on? Everyone, get out of the way!"
Just when everyone was shocked, Linghu Yunpeng came over with some people. He was also a law enforcer, and he had also brought his colleagues. However, he wasn't in charge of this block, and he usually didn't come here. The reason why he came today was naturally because he received a notice from Thirteenth Brother.
"How about it, Boss Ouyang? Do you want to give me 5,000 divine stones directly, or do you want me to send the evidence to the City Lord Residence?"
If Linghu Yunpeng came with people, the Ouyang family would have no chance of turning the tables. Even if they could stop Du Feng with their numbers, they couldn't stop Linghu Yunpeng from submitting the evidence to the City Lord Residence. Once it was submitted, the Ouyang family would definitely lose face, and they would also lose credibility with the City Lord Residence.
The reason why Du Feng addressed Ouyang Yanyong as Boss Ouyang was because he was in charge of this bookstore. If he didn't pay, then the store's staff who framed him would be arrested and sent to jail. If the store's staff who worked for the Ouyang family were sent to jail in order to cooperate with the boss, the Ouyang family would no longer be able to recruit people in the future.
"You … you're despicable!"
Ouyang Yanyong's nose was crooked. He really didn't want to give 5,000 divine stones to Du Feng. That was five thousand, not five hundred. And this amount was set by him in the first place. That was because it was their people who had exchanged one Merit Point cultivation technique book for one worth 500 Divine Stones. Furthermore, he was the one who proposed the ten times compensation.
