Because Captain Five's name had been mentioned in the testimony, he was one of the suspects. He had to go to the city lord's mansion with them. Otherwise, he would be considered to have absconded.
"Who dares to touch our captain!"
When the members of Team Five saw the people of Team Eight surrounding them, of course, they wouldn't be so well-behaved.
"Why? Do you want to help Captain Five abscond?"
Captain Eight put a big hat on them, which immediately scared everyone. They had to consider what they would do in the future if something happened to Captain Five this time. If Team Five was canceled, maybe some of them would be assigned to Team Eight. They couldn't afford to offend Captain Eight.
"Let's go, let's go and see."
"Yes, we have to supervise."
There were also many meddlesome residents in Sea City. The law enforcement team usually rode roughshod over their heads. This time, they could finally see Captain Five in trouble. Everyone was looking forward to it.
"Okay, everyone, let's go and see. I've never seen a law enforcement captain being tried before."
"Yeah, I'm also very curious."
The people had the mentality of watching a good show and were not afraid of things getting out of hand. They followed in a chaotic manner. Captain Eight didn't stop them and let them all follow. As for how the deputy city lord would try it, that was his business. He only needed to bring people over and make things big. Therefore, the more people followed, the better. It was best to make the whole city know.
"I'm not interested in the law enforcement captain being tried. I just want to see the Helian family suffer."
"Yeah, the people of the Helian family are too arrogant."
"That pitiful daughter of mine was tricked quite badly by that Helian Qiming. She's still depressed and almost committed suicide."
Sure enough, there were many people in the crowd who had opinions about the Helian family. In fact, this was normal. If it was the Yuchi family who committed a crime, many people would come out to complain. This was because ordinary residents usually couldn't afford to offend these big families. Now that they finally had the opportunity, they naturally had to complain.
"Old Xu, don't get excited. It's not certain what will happen. The Helian family's relationship is very strong. We may not be able to sue them. "
There were also others who weren't optimistic about this trial. Although the evidence was relatively sufficient, he was an outsider. The fifth captain was the captain of the law enforcement team, and the Helian family was deeply rooted in Sea City. It was not so easy to topple them.
"If you have any grievances, you can tell Captain Eight. He will definitely uphold justice for you."
Du Feng didn't forget to stir up the crowd as he walked. With his incitement, some people reported the situation to Squad Eight and begged Squad Eight to report the situation to the Deputy City Lord. Usually, ordinary residents like them, especially the human cultivators who lived here, did not have the opportunity to communicate with the law enforcement captain. Now that they had such an opportunity, they were all very proactive.
"Surnamed Du, don't be too proud. The matter of you colluding with the Fishmen is not over yet."
Seeing Du Feng inciting the crowd, Captain Five was furious. However, he couldn't casually make a move now. If he did, he would be suspected of fleeing to avoid punishment. But don't forget, they had previously splashed dirty water on Du Feng. The matter of the merman should at least make him suffer a little, right?
"Don't worry, I still remember about the Fishmen. I'll take care of them when we get to the City Lord's Mansion."
Of course, Du Feng had to mention the matter of the Fishmen, and he had to mention it. If it was just a contract murder, it was not enough to implicate a big family like the Helian Family. He had to implicate their family in the matter of colluding with the Fishmen. Only then would he have enough strength.
"Humph, I want to see what kind of ability you have."
Captain Five was still not convinced because the Fishman was already dead, and the little girl was already dead. Dead men tell no tales, what else could they do? Of course, he didn't know about Du Feng's means, nor did he know what Captain Eight had done behind the scenes.
In this way, surrounded by the crowd, a large group of people arrived in front of the City Lord's Mansion in a mighty manner. When they arrived, the old Deputy City Lord was already waiting at the door. Interestingly, the other Deputy City Lord was also waiting at the door. It seemed that the old man also wanted to intervene in this matter.
Why was the other Deputy City Lord also here? Obviously, he came to fish people out. Because this Deputy City Lord had a good relationship with the Helian Family. To put it bluntly, the Yuchi Family had a relationship with a Deputy City Lord, and the Helian Family also had a relationship with a Deputy City Lord. If it was just a competition of relationships, Du Feng and the others did not have any advantage.
At this time, it was a competition of evidence, a competition of people's hearts, and a competition of public opinion.
"Helian Qiming, why did you hire the killers to kill me? Are you trying to cover up the matter of colluding with the Fishmen?"
Just as they walked to the door of the City Lord's Mansion, before the Deputy City Lord could say whether he wanted to conduct the trial outside or inside, Du Feng suddenly shouted. His shout scared Helian Qiming out of his wits. He just hired a few killers, when did they have anything to do with the Fishmen incident? This was a big crime, it was a betrayal of the Primordial Protoss, betraying the Human Alliance.
"Du Feng, don't slander me, I have nothing to do with the Fishmen."
At this point, Helian Qiming, of course, had to defend himself, otherwise, he would be scolded to death by Du Feng.
"If you say it has nothing to do with it, then it has nothing to do with it. What's with this evidence?"
As he said that, Du Feng took out the image crystal and began to play the evidence he had collected. What he played before was not complete, but this time, it was much more complete. It turned out that he not only recorded the process of being chased by the killers and the process of capturing the killers alive. He also recorded the process of kicking open the door and saving the girl.
"Explain to me, if you didn't collude with the Fishmen, why did you hire the killers to kill me?"
"It's precisely because I know about the Fishmen's shady business and wanted to expose them that you hired the killers to kill me, right?"
In fact, these were two things that just happened to happen to come together, but with Du Feng's words, they became one. Everyone could see from the video that the killers did chase after Du Feng, and the killers later confessed that they were hired by Helian Qiming. In addition, Du Feng kicked open the door in the inn and bravely saved the human girl.
Thinking about these two things together, it did make a lot of sense. If this had nothing to do with the Helian Family, why would they hire the killers to kill Du Feng? This was obviously to silence him.
"Du Feng, you can't talk nonsense, don't wrongly accuse a good person."
Seeing that Helian Qiming was stumped, another deputy city lord spoke up for him. In the end, he was still a deputy city lord, his mentality was still very stable. He said this because he wanted Helian Qiming to calm down and not fall into the trap that Du Feng had set up.
"That's right, Du Feng, you're clearly wrongly accusing me. This has nothing to do with the Fishmen, it's just a personal grudge between us."
