The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 106: ?The Great Conspirator Annan
After they chatted for a while about Denisoya's situation, Annan made an excuse to put the blackbird away in the name of asking him to buy some sober drinks for the two of them.
The blackbird is an old civil servant.
Although Annan's excuse was not very good, he immediately realized that His Majesty was planning to get rid of him.
He immediately understood. I know I won’t have to come back for a while.
He left the tavern with Charlie and the two "VIPs".
"Please wait a moment, both of you. There is a good yogurt shop across the street...I'll be right back."
Blackbird bowed respectfully to the two of them, then wisely left with Charlie.
The reason why I took Xia Li away is because sometimes dogs can understand people's words. This is especially true for extraordinary creatures.
He didn't want the other party to think that he kept Charlie just to eavesdrop on their conversation - in that case, Charlie might die.
The pure black heavy double-breasted trench coat he wears allows locals to recognize his identity at a glance - a police detective in black and a mounted policeman in white. They are both extraordinary people with public identities.
To be treated with such respect by a police detective...
Then it can only be the nobles who cannot be offended.
So the crowd started to walk around them, not even daring to look up at them.
With Annan and Isaac as the center, there is a large circle on the street.
But this kind of "knowledge" and "respect" did not make Annan feel happy... instead, it only made him feel sad.
Issac on the side just lowered his eyes, pursed his lips and said nothing.
But it can also be seen that he is also sad that his people "respect the nobility" so much.
Whether it is Noah, Winter, the Theocracy or the Underground City... even if the citizens there are afraid of the nobles, they are definitely not afraid like this. People with a little bit of ability - even Ailei's father, a painter, dared to go to the Viscount's house every day and paint pictures for the Viscountess, and he was not afraid of it.
And the captain of the guard of Don Juan's family even dared to kill his master directly.
As for the assassins of the royal family, from Noah to Winter, Annan has seen them in person countless times...
However, in the United Kingdom, where the royal family has the weakest power and even has a "parliament of upper and lower houses", such a thing is least likely to happen.
The reason is actually very simple.
Because both Noah and Winter must be decent. Maybe during wartime, in order to maintain stability on the rear, law enforcement may be a little stricter.
But hundreds of years have passed since the **** war ended.
Every country is more respectable.
The death penalty is basically the most severe punishment.
The most cruel punishment of Noah was the "Silver Punishment". Use liquid silver to kill people directly.
But this punishment has not been used for more than 120 years. Nowadays, hanging is generally used - beheading the capital is almost no longer used.
People were "snow-buried" in the cold winter.
The specific method is to tie the person up and carefully pour several basins of boiling water over the whole body. Burn his whole body, then directly untie him and throw him out of the city.
Injuries burned by boiling water and completely soaked clothes will cause people to gradually freeze to death in the snow. Even if you try to survive and take off your clothes, it is basically impossible to survive. In the end, they will only die in pain and twisting outside the city.
Before they die, they will even feel that the snow is hot. These corpses will naturally be covered by the snowstorm and eventually hidden.
The severity or severity of criminal law generally just depends on "how many basins of water are poured on it." If the crime was serious, he might be boiled directly, so there would be no need to throw him out...
Nowadays, this process has been simplified - or civilized. For prisoners with lighter punishments, they are simply thrown out and left to die; while the death row prisoners are all fed to frost beasts and are no longer carried out. Public execution.
Without pouring boiling water in advance, the survival probability of the "exile" has been significantly improved.
Probably from two digits after the decimal point to one digit before the decimal point.
Simply an epic improvement.
The situation underground is rather special. After all, every city has its own laws. It is not ruled out that there is a dark area like the Saltpeter Ranch, where people are arrested and come to "grow" saltpeter.
But in most cases, the Diggers usually don't bother to carry out executions - because as long as the condemned prisoners can escape from the city, they are no longer condemned prisoners.
After all, underground, laws are not universal between different cities, and crimes are not inherited.
As for the Theocracy, Annan was not very familiar with him. However, there are no cases of cruel executions there... Only the United Kingdom is different.
Because Denisoya's "overt crime rate is very low", few death row inmates will be executed.
Ninety-nine percent of those pirates are villains - for "people they can kill at will", they will really use all means to torture and have fun before killing Shen Hai. In order to maintain their dominance and voice in the region, this "torture" is made public in most cases.
For a wanted criminal like "Poisonous Hand", the real reasons why he is wanted are actually the first two - trying to assassinate nobles and plunder official ships. Because of the latter two, almost any pirate will be guilty of it, but they just deliberately don't pursue it.
This kind of power to arrest almost anyone at any time is also the reason why the status of nobles is superior to that of police detectives and mounted police.
Even pirates must be respectful when seeing nobles.
Because each of them has a real "handle".
And this is precisely because of the deliberate laissez-faire of the nobles...
"Did you see...this is where I was born."
Isaac raised the corner of his mouth to one side, revealing a sarcastic smile: "It's really no different from one hundred and sixty years ago.
"From the very beginning, they had no intention of making Denisoya better even a little bit. They just wanted to rule Denisoya for generations to come."
"You look quite happy now."
"Because I think you can tell...Danny Sawyer is going to be in chaos."
Issac smiled with a gloating chuckle: "Those high-ranking aristocratic gentlemen may not realize the seriousness of the problem at all.
“These pirates, who in their view are obedient, come and go when called like dogs, and dare not say a word even if they are directly killed or executed... If they really try to strangle their lifeblood, they will You won’t just wait to die like those civilians."
"Indeed."
Annan is also a little worried.
But he wasn't worried about Danny Sawyer - he was worried about his reputation.
When Annan was still Black Annan, he stayed in the cold winter.
So there were two groups of rebels in winter, and they continued to cause trouble for five or six years. Wait until the civil unrest has just subsided. The royal family of Noah immediately started killing each other, almost seamlessly... Later it was learned that Annan arrived in Noah without knowing when.
In fact, when Noah first started to mess up, Annan hadn't even gone yet. At that time, he traveled around the world and went to various places for a while.
In the end, as soon as Noah's old king received Annan, he immediately burst into tears.
Annan immediately "ran back to Winter in fear" - and as soon as he returned, the Grand Duke of Winter also belched. The northern nobles immediately began to rebel in the cold winter~IndoMTL.com~Annan's frost beast troops directly bulldozed the northern nobles, killing hundreds of people.
Before the matter here calmed down, Annan ran to Noah... Then Philip and Elizabeth immediately started fighting, and one was killed and the other was in big trouble. Kaifuni, who had the best relationship with Annan Successfully succeeded.
When Annan ran to the United Kingdom, the civil war began within a month after landing. If Annan's guess was correct, 80% of the old king's head would be lost.
Annan is very sad.
Why do you die so regularly, as if you really have something to do with me...
I clearly didn’t do anything, I was just passing by!
If this continues, Grand Duke Annan will become an unparalleled conspirator in the world!
He even began to wonder if Black Annan had indeed arranged it this way...
