The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 197

[Chapter 197 Bold]

Lin Tian thought that there was another assassin coming, but he didn’t expect to hear Lei Ting’s voice, reminding him that the water was poisonous.

“Why, did you catch the assassin?”

When Lin Tian heard Lei Ting’s question, he guessed that they must have caught the assassin, and they also got the information out of him.

“Yes, Master, we caught him, and the assassin is willing to testify in court!”

Lei Ting briefly explained what happened.

“Not bad, not bad, Song Zijie and Lin Kang are much smarter this time, and the teaching is not in vain!”

Lin Tian couldn’t help but praise him after listening. This time, he really saw their growth.

As the two were talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside. It should be the jailer.

“I already know what happened. It’s not advisable to stay here for a long time. Lei Ting, you go back first. I’ll wait for you to rescue me tomorrow!”

Lin Tian ordered Lei Ting, and Lei Ting responded and then slipped out of the cell and went back to the Lin Mansion.

Lei Ting returned to the Lin Mansion and told everyone that Lin Tian was fine, and everyone was relieved.

“That’s all for today. We can wait until tomorrow for the trial. Now that the evidence is solid, we will definitely be able to rescue Brother Lin!”

Song Zijie said to everyone.

Although Lin Zuhua and the others had already gone to bed, they all woke up and waited for Lei Ting to come back in the lobby. No one could sleep, after all, Lin Tian’s problem was not solved.

“Well, everyone go to rest. Lei Ting and Lei Dian will have to work hard for a while, just in case there are assassins coming!”

Lin Zuhua saw that everyone had dark circles under their eyes, so he opened his mouth and ordered .

Everyone went to rest. Lei Ting and Lei Dian were still responsible for the night watch, and the assassin did not untie him.

But he was still dressed. If he caught a cold in this weather, or something went wrong, there would be no one to testify.

The next morning, Lin Tian paced in the prison early, and the yamen runners opposite woke up.

One of them was about to pour water to drink, but was stopped by Lin Tian.

“Don’t drink that water, it’s poisonous!”

Lin Tian told the two yamen runners that an assassin came to poison last night, but they still didn’t believe it.

Lin Tian simply caught a mouse in prison and fed it some of the poisoned water on the table.

Soon, the mouse bled from all seven orifices and died!

The expressions of the two yamen runners were very interesting, with fear, anger, and a hint of fear.

“See, your existence has threatened the mastermind behind the scenes. It’s better to confess honestly. Maybe I can give you a chance to survive!”

Lin Tian persuaded.

The useless chess piece still wants to send over to checkmate his army. Of course, the choice is to get rid of it as soon as possible!

“I know that there is no good person among businessmen. I also believed in his evil and was greedy for that little bit of money. I almost lost my life!”

One of the yamen runners cursed viciously.

“I’m risking it, Master Lin, I’ll testify for you, you have to save my life!”

The yamen runner thought about it and felt that the other side must be unreliable. It’s better to sell a favor to Lin Tian, maybe he can save his life!

“Yes, Master Lin, I am willing to testify. I have old people and young children to support. You have to save me!”

Another yamen runner also cried and begged Lin Tian.

“As long as you are willing to testify, I will protect you!”

Lin Tian assured the two people. These two are just abandoned pawns. If they can be saved, they should be saved. After all, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda! They are just

two ordinary people. What’s wrong with saving their lives? It will not affect Lin Tian’s great achievements, and it can also add a little glory.

The two people kowtowed to Lin Tian to thank him. If Lin Tian hadn’t reminded them that the water was poisonous, they would have gone to see the King of Hell.

With the confessions of these two people, Lin Tian’s chances of winning have increased a little bit. Now he is afraid that there is collusion between officials and businessmen, or that there are some big figures behind the scenes!

After a while, the jailer came to take them to the court. Lin Kang and others came early.

Lin Tian gave them a carefree look, and everyone’s confidence increased a little bit.

The Dali Temple Chief Justice knocked the gavel and began to open the court, asking the witnesses to come out and testify, and to hand in any evidence.

“Sir, someone wanted to kill people and destroy evidence last night, and we caught him, and we also got a letter like this!”

Song Zijie said to the Dali Temple Chief Justice with a smile.

“Oh, there is an assassin, please present it!”

The Dali Temple Chief Justice said with a nonchalant look, as if it was not a big deal.

Song Zijie presented the assassin’s letter last night. The Dali Temple Chief Justice took a look at the letter, and a trace of uneasiness appeared in his eyes, but he immediately concealed it.

A person in the crowd saw that the yamen runner and the old man were not dead, so he suddenly rushed out with murderous intent.

He pulled out a dagger and stabbed Lin Tian. After all, Lin Tian was dead, and no matter how the case was judged, it would be meaningless.

The dagger was about to stab Lin Tian, but when it was only an inch away from Lin Tian’s heart, no matter how hard the man tried, it could not go any further.

Because the man’s hand holding the dagger was caught by Lin Tian and could not move!

No one had ever told him that Lin Tian actually knew martial arts.

Seeing this, the Dali Temple Chief Justice winked at the guards beside him, and then shouted.

“Who dares to disturb the court? Catch him!”

A group of guards surrounded him, and the man was beaten with a stick by a group of people, and he stopped moving.

The guards stopped, one of them felt his breath, and reported to the Dali Temple Chief Justice.

“Sir, this thief is dead!”

“Well, drag him away!”

The Dali Temple Chief Justice ordered calmly.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this was to silence him, and he didn’t want to expose the man’s identity.

“Sir, now the evidence is conclusive, can we try it?”

Song Zijie cupped his hands and said to the Dali Temple Chief Justice.

Now that the evidence is complete, it proves that Lin Tian was framed, and the mastermind behind the scenes has also been confessed, all that’s left is for the Dali Temple Chief Justice to make the final decision to close the case.

“I have my own thoughts, and you don’t need to teach me what to do!”

The Dali Temple Chief Justice said angrily.

“These evidences still need to be investigated carefully, and the assassin must be tried carefully. Someone, take the assassin away and punish him!”

The Dali Temple Chief was afraid that the assassin would say something. Since the letter was in his hand, he could say whatever he wanted. As

long as the assassin died, there would be no evidence. Just relying on the one-sided words of a homeless man, it was completely disregarded.

“My lord, you are probably trying to kill people to silence them. Now the evidence is irrefutable, but you haven’t closed the case yet. Is there something wrong?”

Song Zijie asked bluntly, ignoring the fact that the person in the court was the Dali Temple Chief.

“How dare you slander the court official? Someone, give him fifty lashes to set an example!”

The Dali Temple Chief was like a mouse whose tail was caught, and his hair stood up all of a sudden. He said viciously.

“You are the one who is so bold. I asked you to handle it impartially, but this is how you handle it impartially?”
