"However, what choice do you have? I might be able to help you fulfill your wish, which the captain couldn't do. The time has not yet come, but with my help, your plan might be completed faster."

"After all, this matter is also good for me, so choose one."

"If you help Whitley, how will you be seen by people, and you know yourself?"

"It's natural."

Xia Heng raised his legs, picked up a piece of glass from the table, and said slowly.

"After all, I don't like that Hopkins. He must have deliberately wanted to hang Lavinia after hanging you. With me, I can guarantee that no one will find Lavinia. Nia."

"Otherwise, you will give Lavinia to him?"

"Of course not. The most boring thing is to let people kill innocent children and women. It's brutal and savage, but it's boring to just vent your primitive hope."

Xia Heng held the glass to his eyes and looked at Absalon through it.

"Time is running out, are you going to trust me, or that captain?".

Chapter [*]: Young people who provoke authority

"Justice Hopkins."

Just as Hopkins led the guards to escort Absalon out of the house, Sanson, who was supposed to be performing in the auditorium, frowned and stopped a few people.

"Where are you going to take this old man?"

"I remember, you guy seems to be from the Fujimaru Tachibana Theater..."

"Sanson. My name is Charles Henry Sanson."

Regardless of the vicious eyes of the guards, Sansong still stood in the same place and asked.

"I'll ask you again, are you going to take him to jail now? If you're going to take him into custody, like Tituba did, I hope you'll reconsider. Judge, you should just be the state of Massachusetts. The viceroy's deputy, not the threshold king."

"What an annoying fiend."

Seeing Sansong Pestle in place, Hopkins frowned.

"Don't get in the way, step back! Are you trying to fool Your Excellency the judge!"

"A mere drama actor, don't be wise to yell. Do you need us to teach him how to behave, Your Honor."

"...No, wait a moment."

Hopkins raised his hand to stop the two guards and waved them off.And from behind, Randolph Carter walked out slowly.

"I said why it's so noisy. It's you."

"Mr. Carter, why even you..."

"Sanson, this is a necessary disposal."

Ignoring the surprised expression of the other party, Carter looked at Absalon with a flat face and said.

"This man, Absalon used black magic to manipulate ghouls to run rampant and endanger the village. This is a more obvious threat, and we must act now."

"Varied......"

Even Sang Song didn't expect that the other party would say such a thing, frowning and scolding.

"Mr. Carter, how can you say that. You were the first to disclose information about ghouls. I always thought that Randolph Carter was a learned and trustworthy person who would not rely on authority to do evil. Please don't. Let me down, if you think this old man is suspicious, then you should do it one by one"

"Yes, the people of Salem should be asked first, and learned villagers should be called to serve as jurors. Shouldn't that be done!? Judge Hopkins, please hold a proper trial!"

"...Stinky boy, don't indulge yourself in your own world over there."

Hopkins was silent for a moment, then sneered.

"There's no need for it at all. You don't know anything. Even if you call everyone in the village, they'll be sure that this Whitley did it. You can't see the poison spreading through the village, or the pus that is festering on the limbs. What's the use of that protracted trial, the devil is summoning all sins."

々 Rioting, looting, revenge—I was sent here to prevent these ugly things. "

"It's a lot of arguing. That's about it, Sanson, they won't give up because of your words."

Before Sansong could refute Hopkins, Xia Heng jumped down from a tree beside him and appeared abruptly in everyone's sight.

"Why... why are you also..."

"There are more and more self-righteous brats. I'm curious why you are here, hiding in a tree, if you don't have a reason... private."

"It's annoying (Wang Lihao) to ask so many questions."

Xia Heng waved his hand and interrupted Hopkins's words.

"If you don't explain it well, you're going to put me in a dungeon and defraud some money, right? I'll make good excuses. For example, I was planning to do some business with the Whitley family, and then I was startled by the sudden appearance of the gentlemen. Jump and hide, is this an excuse?"

"...Do stinky brats of this age like to defy authority. Maybe you have a problem with the guests you receive, Mr. Carter.

The first thousand three hundred and sixty chapters are reckless and honest

"...Please go back first, this matter has nothing to do with you."

"Uncle Yiyi, what are you doing?"

At this moment, two petite figures trotted to the path in front of Whitley's house, and their eyes widened when they saw this scene.

"...Abigail. Actually I didn't want you to see this."

Carter looked at Abigail who was stunned, shook her head and sighed.

"The Whitley family is a heretic, an existence that shouldn't exist in Salem."

"Uncle...you are so strange? Why do you say such a thing?"

"Get into the prisoner's carriage, Whateley."

On the other side, the two guards pushed Absalon directly into the prisoner's carriage, ignoring the people on the side.

"....Jianjian..Father, Father..."

"A Lavinia."

653

Absalon obediently got into the carriage, and then looked at his granddaughter who didn't know what to do.

"You're Whitley, and the glory of God's protection is with you. But it's not yet, not quite. Mason can't be trusted, the guy's probably long gone (bddh) in Salem. To the pier. Captain, go to Captain Marsh, that man borrowed money from the Whitleys. And that man might be able to help."

After all, he glanced at Xia Heng vaguely.

"...OK...OK...OK..."

"You actually instigate children to do such immoral things."

Carter didn't notice Absalon's small movements, but said with a frown.

"The officers are searching the basement and all the money you get from those nefarious deeds will be confiscated."

"...As you please. Randolph, you still hate me for your sister and brother-in-law."

"My...killed by the Aboriginal people, my parents?"

Listening to Absalon mentioning his parents, Abigail, who was unable to understand the other party's words, raised his head, his eyes wandering between the old man and his uncle.

"Your anger is on the wrong side. I've just brought them back to their natural stance. I've just opened the door to this prison, that's all. It's them who walked in."

"Nonsense!" Carter interrupted Absalon loudly: "I don't allow you to continue to make my niece feel sad."

"Mr. Carter, calm down."

The guard standing on the prisoner's carriage reassured Carter, who was industrious, and then turned to Hopkins.

"Let's take him away, Your Honor!"

"...To collect a lot of money, so it is, this is your purpose. Even here, your nature will not change."

Seeing the guard leaving with a carriage, Xia Heng looked at Hopkins and showed a playful smile.

"Excessive insults are enough for you to be sentenced, but there is a more fitting thing for you to serve."

Hopkins ignored his words and walked over.

"The gallows were damaged by the storm last night. I can only say that there was no accident during the execution. Salem needs manpower to repair and increase the gallows. This is labor that the villagers feel unlucky and do not want to do. You two Just go and build it by yourself.”

"Just indulge in the conceit and self-abuse commensurate with Leng Touqing!"

Leaving the words behind, Hopkins left the front of Whatley's house.

Chapter [*] Twisted and chaotic Salem

"Even Mr. Carter supports Hopkins' actions... It's unexpected."

"To be hanged again...this is too...too unusual..."

"If it goes on like this, it's only a matter of time before we get noose around our necks."

In the late night at the Carter's house, Chaldea and his party gathered around the table, bowing their heads for today's hanging.

"...I said, you have already rushed over, why didn't you stop them."

At this moment, Robin Hood looked at Sansong, who seemed to be powerless, even his expression was like nothingness.

"Stop talking, Robin."

"...The gallows I just repaired were immediately used by them. This is a clear threat, threatening us... to stop interfering in it."

Ignoring the Master who stopped Robin Hood, Sangsong lowered his head and clenched his fists.

"Damn Hopkins..."

"...But no matter what, since it is a judgment made in front of everyone in accordance with the law...that is - justice."

Sanson tried his best to keep his composure, his head bowed - said.

"No matter how unusual this place in Salem is, they are living human beings. They want to maintain their family beliefs and love for their families. Even if their joys and sorrows will disappear like dew tomorrow. I also think Affirm them, otherwise, this is denying the Servant and denying ourselves."

"It's wrong, Sanson, very wrong."

At this moment, Xia Heng pushed the door and walked in, bringing in a bit of the smell of soil.

"What's wrong? Also, why did you disappear when you were hanged, where did you take that child named Lavinia?"

Sansong frowned, turned to look at him and asked.

"There is no comment on the latter question. As for what is wrong, it is wrong from the most fundamental point."

Xia Heng closed the door and clapped his hands lightly.
