Him and their stars

It was probably because every fold of Yu Lian's smile was filled with a fierce evil spirit, which really frightened Tan Jize so much that he remained silent for nearly half a minute, and even subconsciously moved a few steps away before he slowed down. The tone was not too natural: "...then again, are you really going to apply to the Privy Council for an honorary duel with the Chief of Police, Viscount Demen?"

"I am a psyker, and he is also a psyker. Isn't this the sacred right given to us by the spirit of the universe?" Yu Lian glanced at the expressionless place, and then laughed dumbly: "As a legal scholar, you must It’s quite hard to accept this kind of privilege.”

"That's not the case. Anyway, this is also your own business as psychics. As long as it does not affect the public order and good customs of the working people, you will not do my business. Anyway, this kind of extraordinary honor duel that will be made public will be in a fixed place. It will cause trouble for others, and it also comes with self-broadcasting and viewers, which can create some added value." Tan Jize said with a smile.

Yu Lian was not offended at all, but was very pleased.

Generally speaking, those who are keen on deconstructing the sacred are potential Bolsheviks. From this perspective, Tan Jize, who looks the most gentle and bookish, may be the member of the International Students Association who is most likely to understand Yu Lian's brain circuit.

At this time, Tan Jize said again: "But he can refuse."

"Of course you can. However, Demen has the fifth ring and I have the fourth ring. If he refuses, he will be embarrassed. If he has even the slightest sense of shame, he will not dare to stay in the position of police chief."

Of course, it would be better if he stayed shameless. At that time, the Privy Council bosses had reason to force him to leave, but Viscount Demen was from the Prime Minister's Office. There will definitely be another big fight between the government and the courtyard.

Yu Lian's attitude is very clear. No matter who is behind this incident, if you dare to disgust me, I will directly disgust the entire empire.

Tan Jize understood what the other party meant after a second thought, and a flash of joy flashed in his heart, but he still did not dare to rest assured and said worriedly: "But what if Viscount Demen agrees?"

Yu Lian glanced at Tan Jize in surprise, as if to say, "How can a smart person like you say such stupid things?"

"Of course, just chop him into pieces and let his ignorant soul go to the spirit of the universe to apologize." His tone was so natural, as if the other party was the one at a disadvantage.

Tan Jize was immediately speechless. On the one hand, he really didn't know much about psykers, so he naturally had no right to speak. On the other hand, he was probably a bit unable to answer the question because of Yu Lian's unreasonable confidence.

"Then, from Stoke's side, I would like to ask everyone at the General Association and you for the time being. However, don't put too much pressure on yourself." Yu Lian patted Tan Jize's shoulder and prepared to leave with a full face. Regretfully: "I originally wanted to discuss life, the future and this stagnant universe with you, but I didn't expect that something like this happened. So, let's wait until everything is calmed down."

What you said is really unlucky. Tan Jize forced a smile: "I'm looking forward to that day. During this period of time, Seldi is just under house arrest anyway. He has nothing to do, so he should give us a preview. When he is more prepared, we can talk to him again. If you talk about important things freely, the effect may be better."

After bidding farewell to everyone at the Overseas Students Association, Yu Lian had just returned to the embassy when he was pulled directly into the small conference room by Major General Walter Rall with a constipated expression on his face.

At this time, Mr. Qi, the first-in-command of the embassy, ​​and Counselor Bliss, the second-in-command of the embassy, ​​were all sitting upright in the conference room. Together with Major General Walter Rall, the chief military attache, it goes without saying that it was another three-chamber trial.

"I have also heard about what happened over there. During this period, I will do my best to put pressure on the empire. At least the hospital must bear greater responsibility for the accident." Mr. Qi got straight to the point.

From what he said, it seemed that he didn't have much hope for Stoker's innocence.

If the hospital could be made to bear greater liability for death, it might be possible to downgrade "manslaughter" to "negligent injury," so that he would not have to serve a lifetime of hard labor.

However, the degree that Stoker had worked so hard for several years could not be kept, and nearly ten years in prison was inevitable.

"We will also follow up on this matter with all our strength, and we will not allow our international students to be treated unfairly." Counselor Bliss also added.

Although he said this, Mr. Counselor was a little afraid to look into Yu Lian's eyes, with a hint of guilt. Probably because they knew that from the embassy's standpoint, they really couldn't get too involved in this kind of criminal case that seemed to have no political factors on the surface.

What's more, the embassy is only a subordinate of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and after all, it has to consider the reaction of the earth.

No matter what, Mr. Bliss has such an attitude and has indeed been running around diligently these past few days. Yu Lian is still very grateful. He looked at the obvious tiredness on the other person's face and his pale complexion due to stomach pain. He immediately felt a little guilty and said, "How is your stomach? Do you need me to check it for you?"

"Hey, you psychics can save emergencies and lives, but you haven't heard that they can save illnesses, right? Moreover, this is an old problem of the diplomatic service, and I have long been used to it. Who doesn't feel pain once or twice a week? This time, I was embarrassed to say that I was doing diplomatic work. However, this time it really hurt too much." Counselor Bliss touched his stomach helplessly, and just wanted to say a few polite words of thanks. Then he realized something was wrong and couldn't help but said loudly: "Wait a minute, isn't this all your fault?"

Oh, I didn't fool him.

"You know we have stomachaches, so don't increase our workload! Didn't you already promise Director Ranche before departure? What about the most basic trust between people?"

"Hey, Brother Bliss, don't blame him. Young people are bloody and it's understandable that they want to stand up for their friends. Moreover, from the standpoint of a diplomat, we should stand up to protect our own citizens. , which is what it should be." Mr. Qi said something fair from the side.

"Stop favoring him!" Bliss replied in a louder voice.

Probably because it was the first time that Mr. Counselor behaved so forcefully in front of His Excellency the Ambassador, which made the latter stunned on the spot.

"Of course I can understand that he wants to protect classmate Stoker! But...but...he...he said on the spot that he wanted to have an honorary duel with Viscount Demen!"

This time, even Mr. Qi, a master who was afraid of chaos in the world, couldn't help but look at Yu Lian with his mouth open, let alone Major General Lal.

A full half minute passed before Major General Lal said in a jerky tone: "Are you threatening them? Well, in diplomatic situations, sometimes tough attitudes can be adopted. I completely understand."

"No, I'm serious. I've already written the application on the way back." Yu Lian said with a smile.

Originally, honor duels should be applied to the local security department, but the person involved, Viscount Demen, was the biggest police chief himself. Fortunately, he is a noble, so this kind of matter can be handled by the Heraldry Academy. But in the final analysis, it is estimated that it will have to be reported to the Privy Council.

We all know that in this kind of imperial country that attaches great importance to etiquette and rules, anything involving high-level officials will be very formalistic. Since it is a request that may require special approval from the Privy Council, wouldn’t it be particularly rude to apply online? Even applying over the phone is a bit frivolous. A written document is of course required.

To be honest, the Privy Council didn't tell you that you must be present, which already seemed very humane.

Major General Lal's eyes moved completely in a circle, staring at Yu Lian in disbelief. After several seconds, he looked tremblingly at his fellow sufferer, Counselor Bliss, with a hint of pleading in his eyes. However, he could only see the latter nodding to him with a sad face.

The chief military attache of the embassy immediately held his head with both hands, let out a painful groan that was heartbreaking to hear, and buried his head on the table with a "pop".

However, Mr. Qi slapped the table and laughed: "Hahahahaha! It doesn't matter, young man, just do it! If you can disgust the imperial devils, that's enough! Brother Lar, don't be so virtuous. ! I am 80% sure that the bumbling police chief will refuse."

Seeing Counselor Bliss's expression of confusion, he explained: "Viscount Demen was born into a small nobleman who only passed through the third generation. In addition, I have met that boy. He is not very old, but he is already a very realistic old official. It’s oily.”

Because he is a young noble who has just started his career, he does not have as urgent a sense of honor as a hereditary noble with a long history; because he is an old official, he does not have such a strong sense of shame; because he is young and still has a great future, he even dares not Taking risks.

"He still has the rank of reserve general. The worst he can do is resign as police chief, resume active duty and return to the army." Major General Lal also explained once, but still said uneasily: "But what if? Viscount Demen He has had the experience of killing generals in battle before. If he really agreed..."

"Then just chop it off. Being able to legally chop a high-ranking official of the empire to death, where can I find such a good thing? Don't you know that my lightsaber is already hungry?" Yu Liandao.

As a result, Major General Lal also held his stomach and showed a painful expression.

"Of course, I am still a soldier after all, so of course I need your approval. As long as you object, I am willing to accept it." Yu Lian pretended to be a good boy again.

Major General Watt Rall thought to himself, of course I will object! Otherwise, not to mention the reaction of the empire, even the Earth side would not be able to explain it!

...However, I object, but what if this old man here who is afraid of chaos in the world agrees? Looking at the old man's eyes, which are so bright that they can be used as searchlights, he is obviously interested!

Sure enough, we still have to contact the Earth side first and ask them to suppress Mr. Qi?

But is this too unethical? Am I, Watt Lal, this kind of person? And to be honest, it would be better to have less dealings with the big shots on the other side of the earth!

While Major General Lal was thinking, he exchanged a look with his good partner, Counselor Bliss. The long tacit understanding allowed him to instantly catch the same meaning in the other person's eyes.

Just when the No. 1 and No. 2 figures in the embassy were caught between morality and reality, Yu Lian said again: "Then, let's get back to the topic. As for Seldy Stork, I hope to Participate in this year’s God of War Festival as an individual.”

The other three people present felt that the topic seemed to have jumped too fast, and they all felt that they had been kicked around hard.

How are the Ares Festival and the criminal cases involving foreign students from this country related?

"If you win the championship or get the mvp, you can ask the emperor for a wish, right? In the Galactic Empire, the will of the Void Crown is above all else, so you can ask him to pardon Stork. Then I, as a A representative of the community can still make a big splash in the whole universe and win glory for the country! Isn't that wonderful?" Yu Lian smiled and said: "So, I have already signed up. Phew, the registration deadline is almost here, what a risk. !”

Of course, registration for the God of War Festival doesn’t have to be as troublesome as honorary duels. You can register online. Moreover, Yu Lian's identity information was passed in less than half a minute, as if there was an invisible hand, fearing that he would regret it.

Counselor Bliss and Major General Lal felt as if they were hearing hallucinations. Although Yu Lian's voice was not loud, it seemed as if a thunderous echo resounded in their ears.

The corners of their mouths twitched at almost the same moment and with the same amplitude. They then simultaneously covered their stomachs where they felt severe pain, and were almost speechless.

This is the worst pain they have experienced in half a year. It is simply unbearable pain!
