Whether it was reason or reason, she gave up the idea of resisting by force. Otherwise, Roko was not only an administrative officer, but also a water mage. The warriors of the Great Fu Enforcement might not be able to do anything to Roko.

This was the same for Vivian.

After asking for Little Wolf’s opinion, Vivian finally broke through and summoned Little Wolf back to the summoning space. Together with Little Wolf, she was controlled by the warriors.

As for the astrologer girl, seeing that Vivian did not move, she could only resign herself to fate and be tied up as well.

“Thank you, Lady Vivian. On behalf of the innocent people of the Thousand Islands, I am truly grateful to you! Please believe me, Lady Vivian. I’m just temporarily troubling you…”

Roko expressed her gratitude for Vivian’s decision.

She took a deep breath and looked at the young man with a smug expression on her face. Although Luzi was caught off guard, she quickly launched a counterattack.

‘ Lord Yosuke, even if I am dismissed from my post because of my crime, the laws of the Thousand Islands clearly state that if an official of my level commits a crime, he must report it to the Minister of Justice. Only the Minister of Justice, the head of the Three Courts, can decide my subsequent sentence.

“Are you going to ignore the law? Was this also considered an abuse of power? It wasn’t easy for you to take over your sister’s position and sit in the position of the temporary family head. Don’t come down again before your butt gets warm.

RoRoko’s eloquent words made Sakai Yosuke’s originally smiling face, which had a look of control over everything, darken.

He snorted coldly and didn’t reply to Lu Zi. Instead, he said to the warriors around him,”

“First, lock up the two foreigners beside Roko. The rest of you, split up and bring Roko with you to see Lord Gong Si.

“Yes, sir!”

The warriors began to take action. Roko looked at Vivian and Meji who were being escorted to the prison and finally decided to trust them again. They must not do anything extreme. They must believe her. She could explain everything to Gong Si and they would be released soon.

Vivian believed that Meggy was looking at her as if she had to hurry up. As for the wolf cubs in the summoning space…

At the same time, the passengers on the Astorokis also witnessed the scene on the deck.

Some people saw that the little girl who had saved them from the snake’s mouth was being taken away as a prisoner by the Grand Fuxing Priest and was about to be born. Was there a misunderstanding?

However, in the face of the strict gazes and spears of the warriors, even though they were all nobles, they still chose to be the silent third party in the face of the absolute authority of the Thousand Islands.

There were only two people among the passengers who were different from the rest. One of them was the merchant who had left the ship. After Zhao Jie and the other warriors allowed the passengers to leave, he did not think that the others would run away and desperately wanted to leave this troublesome ship.

This middle-aged man chose to stay on the ship. After a while, he meowed at one of the Thousand-island Warriors who was guarding the ship and approached him with a money bag in his hand.

Through bribery, Zhao Jie easily understood the series of changes that happened on the ship in a short period of time from the warrior.

After that, Zhao Jie frowned. Even a fool could tell that there was a thick conspiracy behind this. Moreover, it was obvious that this matter had huge implications and was a very deep whirlpool.

The best and wisest decision would be to quickly clear their name and leave like the other passengers on the other ships.

However…

Zhao Jie gritted his teeth. He reached into his inner pocket and took out the pocket watch that contained the family portrait. He took a deep look at it before closing the pocket watch again and putting it back into his pocket.

“I’m sorry, Honey, Xing ‘Er. Wait for me for a while. That little girl saved my life. I… I can’t leave him in the lurch!”

“The foundation of our Gui Li people is the word ‘contract’. I, I can’t go back on my word! ”

After muttering to himself, Zhao Jie seemed to be giving himself courage. After that, there was no longer any hesitation on his face. He seized every moment and did not even take his luggage. After finding a direction, he hurriedly left.

Vivian had saved his life, that was the main thing. Besides, this was a subconscious feeling that every father would have, especially when they were away from home.

Zhao Jie could not help but think of his own daughter, Xing ‘er, as Vivian. If it was his daughter who was framed at the moment, he would definitely hope that a stranger could lend a helping hand, right?

Thinking of this, Zhao Jie quickened his pace. However, what he did not expect was that someone would suddenly approach him from behind.

” Wait, wait for a moment, Mister!”

Zhao Jie quickly turned around and heaved a sigh of relief. The person who had come was not a warrior from the Great Fuxing Court, but…lt was a young man wearing glasses who looked a little messy.

He had some impression of this person. He should be the same as him, both of them…A passenger?

As mentioned before, there were two passengers who had different performances. One of them was Zhao Jie.. As for the other…
