I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 270 - Decent

Chapter 270: Decent

Ma Baobao opened his eyes.

He saw a flickering oil lamp.

It was demon oil refined from the fat of sea monsters hunted in the depths of the ocean.

It was used to suppress and restrain some extremely dangerous people!

That was a secret that his disciple had told him.

He then looked at the walls on both sides, which were completely bare.

One talisman after another was emitting a faint spiritual light.

“Demon Suppression Prison!” He spat out a word.

The most secretive and highest-level prison of the Blackguard!

It was a place specially used to lock up extremely dangerous foreign species or transcendent beings.

It was said that anyone who entered such a place could not escape easily, no matter who it was.

A hundred years ago, there was once an extremely powerful demon that was locked up in the Demon Suppression Prison.

Then, it was suppressed until it died!

“What did I do?” Ma Baobao couldn’t figure it out.

He only brought his subordinates and threatened a young man.

Besides, there was nothing else other than the final attack.

Everything was normal.

Even if he went to the circuit court of the Blackguard, he was confident that he could convince and tell the judge that his actions were harmless.

But…

Here…

Ma Baobao knew that the laws and systems were ineffective to a certain extent in that place.

Because the people who were locked up in such places were considered ‘extremely evil’ by the Blackguard.

Such people were deprived of all human rights from the beginning.

They were considered ‘foreign species that pose a serious threat to society and the country’.

All laws and systems were no longer applicable to it.

That was because it was no longer a human being.

Naturally, there was no need to talk about human rights with it.

Human rights were prepared for humans, not for demons and evil cultivators.

That was the att.i.tude of the Blackguard!

If one wanted to be a human being, then be a good human being. If one didn’t want to be a human being, then go to h.e.l.l!

But…

“What did I do which made me a vicious criminal?”

“What did I do that pose a serious threat to society and the country?”

Ma Baobao was puzzled.

But he could only sit on the special prison chair that he was bound tightly to and wait for the arrival of the interrogators.

He waited.

Finally…

Crack…

The wall on one side began to rise.

Ma Baobao looked over and saw Young Master Ao, Ao Xian, who was tied to a prison chair just like him.

Crack…

The wall continued to rise.

An elevator-like thing descended.

A layer of a special object that looked like a mirror appeared on the other side.

It was an interrogation room.

There were many chairs in the interrogation room.

The door opened, and a man in a black general uniform walked in.

“I am Situ He!” He looked at Ma Baobao and Ao Xian and sat on a chair. He said expressionlessly, “I will be fully responsible for investigating you and other cases related to the world-threatening conspiracy under the orders of Commander-In-Chief…”

Ma Baobao and Ao Xian immediately shouted at the same time, “General… what did we do that endangered the world?”

“Isn’t putting such a guilt on us a little too much?”

Situ He sneered, “When children play with firecrackers, they accidentally blow up a puddle. It’s just a mistake… but what if he ignites the forest?”

“Did I remind you to be careful with your words and actions when you entered Jiangcheng City?”

Ma Baobao and Ao Xian were stunned.

They remembered.

It was true!

Especially Ao Xian, he remembered more. He came to Jiangcheng City because he heard that there was a person with a special vote in Jiangcheng City.

The Gonghe party and the Datong party were competing to find out information about this person.

He came to join in the fun and see what was going on.

Who would have thought…

In other words…

Ao Xian gulped. That young man, that seemingly ordinary young man, was the owner of the special ballot?

Just a touch could cause him to be an existence that ‘endangers the world, conspiring to cause chaos’?

Situ He ignored them.

Instead, he said into the microphone, “Guests who are listening, please come in!”

And so, the door was opened.

A group of beautiful women dressed in all kinds of dresses, with good figures and unique features, walked in.

Ao Xian looked at these people.

He was puzzled because the dresses on these women looked like the uniform of kindergarten.

So…

A group of kindergarten teachers?

He felt a little incredulous!

Since when kindergarten teachers were so beautiful?

Moreover, why were they here?

Ao Xian didn’t understand.

Then, a middle-aged man in volunteer clothes walked in.

That made Ao Xian even more puzzled.

A middle-aged volunteer?

What was going on?

What was the Blackguard doing?

What did they have to do with that young man?

“Please take a seat…” Situ He stood up and cupped his hands toward the people who had entered.

Thus, they looked at each other.

The dozen of beautiful ladies began to move first.

They moved the chairs to every corner of the interrogation room in a special way.

Only then did they sit down.

Special psionic energy connected them just as they sat down.

These women, these beautiful women, had instantly become extremely dangerous from Ao Xian’s view!

They were like a delicate and terrifying flower.

The flower bud slightly opened, like a mouth that could swallow the sky.

At that moment, the middle-aged man lifted the chair and sat in the middle.

His entire appearance changed as soon as he sat.

It was as if the person sitting on the chair was not a human.

Instead, it was a wild beast that had emerged from the darkness and danger of ancient times.

His figure started to become blurry.

His face kept changing in various ways.

Every appearance seemed to be something that was put together by many monsters.

Situ He turned his head and looked at the thirteen witches of the Feasting Sect and the leader of the Beast Sect.

He gulped.

“They’re stronger!” Situ He thought.

That meant that the master these people served was giving them more strength and favor.

Therefore, they were still lunatics, unreasonable lunatics.

They looked normal at the moment.

In fact, it was only their master who made them ordinary.

In other words, once their master stopped making them normal.

These people would immediately become monsters!

Situ He thought and couldn’t help but wipe his sweat.

He started to feel lucky that he invited these people to listen.

Situ He turned around and looked at Ao Xian and Ma Baobao.

He sat up straight and asked, “Ao Xian, Ma Baobao…”

“Tell me… Why did you do such a crazy thing today?”

Ao Xian and Ma Baobao raised their heads.

Then, both of them spoke at the same time.

“General, it’s none of my business! “Ao xian shouted, “I didn’t say anything… it was this old man who made the decision!”

“My subordinates and followers can testify for me!”

“I have never instructed Ma Baobao!”

“And I have never partic.i.p.ated in Ma Baobao’s dangerous affairs!”

“General! General!” Ma Baobao shouted, “You are wise… it was Ao Xian who instructed and instigated me. Otherwise, how could this old man be so bold?”

At the moment of life and death, of course, the matter of life and death was more important.

Situ He listened and chuckled.

Behind him, the thirteen witches of the feast snorted coldly.

They could feel that the will of the great G.o.dfather had already given instructions.

The witch slave, who was sitting in the middle, felt it even more clearly.

Because of his wild beast instinct, the connection between him and the G.o.dfather became smoother.

In addition to the feast ceremony of the Thirteen Witches of the Feasting Sect.

Therefore, he could feel the will of the G.o.dfather.

It was a will of disdain.

But it was also a serious att.i.tude!

A foolish ant dared to blaspheme the great ruler?

But…

The great ruler was benevolent and tolerant.

Therefore, the witch slave did not speak. He just watched quietly.

As the son of the G.o.d of father, he understood his role.

An observer.

And also, a witness.

Situ He looked back and understood.

Thus, he felt relieved.

“As expected… We are all decent people…” he rejoiced.

Decent was an important thing.

Decent was something to be exchanged for.

Not what others should provide one with!

It would be bad if decency was given by others!

Thus, Situ He, who had confidence, knew what he should do.

Just like what the Commander-In-Chief had said, a normal interrogation was enough.

Of course, the crime should be exaggerated, and the punishment should be heavier.

That was for the sake of decency.

‘Look, I respect you, and you respect me.’

Everyone was decent.

… … … … ..

It was noon.

The drinks ordered by Ling Pingan were delivered by the staff.

Ling Pingan quickly went out and moved boxes of drinks into the shop.

He was busy for almost ten minutes!

Then, he started to move the drinks upstairs.

It was another half an hour of work.

Fortunately, such things only happened once every six months.

He put all the boxes of drinks in the kitchen.

Ling Pingan opened a box, took out ten bottles, and put them in the fridge.

He would have something to drink at night.

Conveniently, he took out a bottle of iced soda from the fridge, opened it, and took a sip.

Awesome!

Suddenly, his phone rang.

Ling Pingan picked it up and saw it was a call from the police officer from last time.

“Is it because of what happened this morning?” Ling Pingan thought for a moment and answered the call.

“Young Master Ling?” The police officer’s voice came from the other side of the phone.

“Yes…”Ling Pingan nodded.

“It’s like this… Today, we found that you seem to have had contact with a criminal suspect…”

As Ling Pingan listened, he immediately gave a thumbs up for his intelligent act.

As expected, it was a trap!

He thought of the fancy tricks that capital played a few years ago.

He also thought of the cases of fraud he had heard of when he was young.

The world was indeed not as simple as he had imagined!

It was just that…

Ling Pingan did not like trouble.

Moreover…

He did not have much contact with the man!

He would not be able to get anything out of him even if the police came to ask him.

Hence, he said, “Did I?”

“I kinda forgot…”

As a law-abiding citizen, Ling Pingan knew that it was important to cooperate with the police.

But the problem was that he didn’t know anything about that.

At most, the old man intended to trick him with a high price of ‘two million’.

Then, he played a trick by trying to beat him.

Ling Pingan understood that such kind of thing wasn’t enough evidence to convict.

It could not be used as evidence for the accusation.

Therefore, he just muddled through.

The police seemed to be stunned and then said, “Sorry to disturb you, young master… I wish you a happy life…”

Ling Pingan hung up the phone.

He took another sip of the drink in his hand and shrugged. He said, “I shouldn’t have done anything wrong, right?”

“Yes…”

“If there’s a problem… the police will contact me again…”

“We’ll talk about it then. It will not be too late!”

So, he walked downstairs.

… ..

In the interrogation room.

The interrogation was still going on.

All the statements were recorded.

At the same time, the statements about the bodyguards and attendants from other interrogation places were also being sent over.

The facts were starting to become clear.

First, Ao Xian had taken a fancy to the owner’s pet.

Then, Ma Baobao had acted on his own to curry favor.

Even after receiving the call, he had acted stupidly in order to show off!

That was a farce between an ignorant second-generation demon and the fool beside him who had come up with an idea on the spur of the moment!

The facts were clear, and the evidence was conclusive!

Situ He examined everything.

He began to think.

Such a thing was nothing extraordinary according to the law.

Normally, the sentence would be education, warning, probation, or social service.

However, the problem was that this matter involved that person.

Therefore, the small matter became a big problem.

How to deal with it was not important.

What was important was the att.i.tude!

What was important was the law and the system!

Therefore…

Situ He picked up the pen and began to write the accusation report to the circuit court of the Blackguard.

First, the tone of accusation had to be high.

If the tone of accusation were not high, how could he prove his att.i.tude?

Therefore, he picked up the pen and wrote down the first accusation: Endangering the public interest in a dangerous way.

That was a very clever way of saying things.

Because the person responsible could be directly executed if this charge was confirmed.

But the bottom line was to abolish his psionic energy and banish him to Beihai, and reform him through labor for three years.

So, the trick was sincerity!

Just as Situ He was about to write down the second charge, his phone rang.

He picked it up and answered.

A report came from the other side.

As he listened, his expression slowly changed.

Then he turned around and looked at the listeners behind him.

“He couldn’t remember?” Situ He knew that this was a form of expression.

Couldn’t remember. The subtext was ‘do as you see fit’!

Then they would do as they see fit. Could they do what they felt suitable?

Only children would think that what adults said was true.

And adults knew that many words had to be heard in reverse.

Especially that one who was so arrogant.

His arrogance meant that his words had to be a.n.a.lyzed carefully.

That was just like when Situ He was at home with his wife.

His wife said, “I’m not really blah blah blah…”

Would he believe it?

Situ He didn’t believe it anyway! Because he had already suffered many losses.

Especially when they quarreled, his wife would immediately start to scold him.

‘Situ He, you have the guts! All these years, I’ve done so much for you… But you actually…’

Therefore, Situ He knew that if he did as he was told.

The target might not mind now.

But he would remember in the future.

Oh…

When he gave them reputation, they actually blah, blah, blah…

Thus, Situ He honestly erased his suggestion.

He knew that he had to give a realistic accusation, but at the same time, he could also take care of both sides’ reputations.

Then…

What kind of accusation could let the target know that his side valued it?

And could allow the pride and dignity of the Blackguard to be preserved to the greatest extent?

Situ He thought for a moment and wrote down a crime on the indictment: The crime of organizing an evil organization.

It would be severe once this crime was confirmed.

At the very most, it would be a capital crime, and it would be the cruelest death of a soul s.n.a.t.c.her for extraordinary beings and foreign species!

Even if it were the lowest limit, it would still be the crime of being expelled to Beihai for the rest of his life.

But…

The circuit court could not accept that accusation.

Because all the evidence might look like it was related to this crime, but in reality, it was completely out of place.

Therefore, the judge would order them to fight back.

Then, the Blackguard would have three days to reorganize the language and the accusation.

That way, they could change this extremely important accusation to a relatively acceptable ‘endangering public safety dangerously’.

In this way, Ao Xian and Ma Baobao, who were the main culprits, would most likely be sentenced to three years of labor in Beihai with the ban on psionic energy.

At the same time, they would be prohibited from touching higher cultivation and higher resources for life.

The Blackguard would also educate their families.

That way, everyone would be decent.

They could show that they value the relationship with him…

Such a high-level accusation was already a full display of sincerity…

And after seeing that, the target should understand the sincerity of the Blackguard.

That was the best way that Situ He could think of to deal with it.

He could protect his dignity and rights!

At the same time, it would not hurt the pride and dignity of the Blackguard!

Because according to the system, Ao Xian and Ma Baobao would indeed receive such a punishment if it were strictly implemented!

Thinking of that, he put down his pen.

The witches of the Feasting Sect behind him stood up.

The leader of the Beast Sect also stood up.

Situ He became nervous.

As he listened, they began to turn around, walk to the door, open it, and close it.

They left.

They didn’t say a word from the beginning to the end.

They just left.

So…

Situ He sighed. “As expected, they are all gentlemen!”

What did gentlemen care about the most?

Reputation! Decency!

… … … … ..

Ma Baobao and Ao Xian looked across the interrogation room.

The onlookers stood up silently and left.

They didn’t say a word during the entire interrogation.

However, them sitting there already explained the problem.

Especially Ao Xian, who was already trembling.

His psionic sense let him know who those people were?

Each of them probably had the strength of a Colonel of the Blackguard at the very least!

The outstanding among them might even be equivalent to a General of the Blackguard!

Since when did this small Jiangcheng city have so many experts gathered together?

Moreover, they were only representatives of a certain person, looking at their expressions and appearances.

They might even be servants…

He finally understood that he had b.u.mped into an iron plate!

Moreover, even the Blackguard did not dare to offend this iron plate. They had to care about his reputation and make them feel comfortable.

Ao Xian finally mustered up his courage and asked after they left, “General… Please let me know what happened…”

“Who are they? And who have I offended?”

Situ He looked up at Ao Xian.

That unlucky guy. That spoiled guy.

“Them…”

Situ He thought for a moment and said for education, “They are just the servant of that person…”

“No… it should be the servant’s servant…”

Ao Xian listened, and his whole body softened.

Servant’s servant?

Who did he offend?

What kind of terrifying enemy did he provoke for the family?

At this moment, Ao Xian was filled with regret.

He hated himself for being blind. He hated himself for not listening carefully in the Commander-In-Chief’s teaching cla.s.s. He hated Ma Baobao even more!

He stared at that idiot, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d who acted on his will.

Ao Xian knew that he should have had a bright future.

But now everything was over.

He knew… he was doomed.

Now, he should take responsibility.

At least he could not let his family shame him and make him an obstacle for his parents and siblings.

Situ He looked at him. He knew what Ao Xian was thinking.

So he put away the folder and said, “You, don’t think too much…”

“A person like you is not enough to be the enemy of such a person…”

“He might not even look at you…”

Yes!

Why would phoenix care about the chirping of birds?

Why would a true dragon care about the ants on the ground?

He wanted att.i.tude and dignity.

As for Ao Xian and Ma Baobao, they were just tools.

A tool that he observed.

That proud ancient G.o.d was like that.

He had many thoughts because he was arrogant.

Why would he let go and hand these two people over to the Blackguard if not for so?

Think about the werewolves and Duke Ivy.

Everything could be understood.

They had to repay the reputation he gave them!

That was how decent people did things.

Complicated, suspicious, and sensitive.
