Dimensional Expedition

Chapter 67: 67. Different rules

Views:

Dean didn't expect those people to treat him so...gently.

The only word he could think of was gentle. When he was young, he was also a petty thief who struggled at the bottom of society. After being caught, he experienced all kinds of torture.

After being caught today, Dean thought he would reminisce about his 'childhood', but the people sent by the other party only asked some questions.

"Trust me, my friend. I'm really just curious about what's in your camp. I don't have any other ideas."

Dean still tried to fool the other party with his smooth talk, but the other party left the interrogation room without saying a word. When the door of the interrogation room was opened again, Dean saw a digging rat appear at the door.

"tutor!"

The moment Charlotte saw her mentor, she almost burst into tears. All the grievances she had suffered in the past half month burst out at this moment.

In grief, Charlotte opened her phone and took a selfie.

Lu Cheng was very suspicious that after the camp was connected to the Internet and the girl learned how to use chat tools, she would post this selfie on her Moments with the message "I can finally go home after wandering outside for more than 20 days."

"tutor!"

Charlotte climbed up one side of the table with Lu Cheng's help, but it was separated from her mentor by an iron railing.

"Miss Charlotte?" Dean heard the voice and instantly recognized that the groundhog in front of him was the daughter of the crystal baby he was looking for.

"It's me! My soul is attached to this groundhog!" Charlotte grabbed the iron railing with both hands and seemed to be trying to get through, but she was too fat.

After Dean confirmed that the groundhog was the daughter of Crystal, he couldn't stay calm. He wanted to stand up, but the handcuffs locked him tightly on the chair.

"Although this is a touching reunion, there are some things that need to be made clear before you leave."

Lu Cheng sat in the chair opposite Dean, looking at the man who had more of a berserker temperament than a mage.

"I apologize for entering your camp by mistake."

Dean's hands were handcuffed apart on both sides. Even if he wanted to use his lock-picking skills, he couldn't do it. Moreover, the lock on these handcuffs was different from the locks he had known before.

"First, you didn't enter by mistake, but broke in. However... you are lucky that you didn't break into our camp, but the place where the Skare refugees live. There, they can deal with you according to the Skare laws. But if you take one more step forward and step into our camp."

From what Lu Cheng saw on the surveillance camera, the two spellcasters with the ability to turn invisible entered the refugee camp of Skarre.

Since the refugee camp is full of residents of Skarre, if you really think strictly, it is not the area where the special zone established by the rabbits in the other world is located, but this can be regarded as a way for Lucheng to give them a way out.

"What if my mentor breaks into your camp?"

However, Charlotte, who had no desire to survive, asked this question for some reason.

"Then according to our laws, you will at least face a prison sentence of more than three years but less than five years. In serious cases, you can be sentenced to more than ten years. You must understand the unit of year, right?" The year mentioned by Lu Cheng here is their longest unit of time measurement, and it is also the unit they use to calculate their age.

"Such a long prison sentence? Can I atone for it with money?"

Dean has been in the Gemansis Secret Society for nearly twenty years. His temperament is no longer as rebellious as when he was a thief, and he knows how to judge people... Lu Cheng is obviously the type who cannot be bought with money.

But Dean couldn't help but ask. This rule exists in all countries in the world, that is, after committing a crime, one can atone for the crime by paying a certain amount of money. However, the price of some crimes is very high, but there are still people who can afford it.

"It's a pity that our laws don't have such a backward mechanism. Crime is crime, and no matter who it is, they must atone their sins in prison. However, you broke into the refugee camp of Skarre..."

Lu Cheng stood up from his seat and left the interrogation room. General Hubert came in instead. His position in Scarre gave him sufficient reason to execute this verdict.

"The former First Knight of Scarre is you?" Dean knew the old general. "Are they really going to judge me using Scarre's laws... This is too rigid."

Dean understood his current situation. Even if they sentenced him to death, he would not be able to resist.

So they had sufficient reasons and conditions to ask Dean for what they needed.

The refugee camp in Skare was built by them, so they can claim that the refugee camp is their territory, but the other party did not...

This looked very stereotypical to Dean.

"These are their rules." General Hubert sat in front of Dean and said, "There are many rules here. They call them laws. Everyone must abide by them... Mr. Dean, if they don't abide by their own rules, do you think others will abide by the rules they set?"

General Hubert also knew this spellcaster from the Gemansis Secret Order, and they had had quite a few conflicts in the past.

This is also what General Hubert understood during these few days in the camp.

"As a general of a country, you actually abide by the rules of another country to do things?" Dean showed the claws of his youth when facing Hubert, and even if he was caught, he still ridiculed the other party wantonly.

"Why not? In my opinion, the laws of their country treat people like you much more reasonably than ours."

Although General Hubert said this, he finally accepted the bag of gems that Dean took out.

According to the laws of Skarre, such trespassing can be redeemed by paying an item worth three hundred Eagle Claw coins. This price is very expensive for ordinary people, and is only a little expensive for some nobles.

But General Hubert clearly understood that this might fill the treasury, but it would definitely not have the effect of "punishment".

The more General Hubert learned from these people, the more he felt that his country was backward. This was not just in terms of knowledge... but in terms of the backwardness of the system itself.

After doing all this, General Hubert walked out of the interrogation room and wanted to hand over the bag of gems to Lu Cheng.

"Keep it for yourself, it's not worth much." Lu Cheng waved his hand and said to General Hubert.

The strategic value of gemstones, a luxury item, is the lowest. It is estimated that even if the rabbits start mining coal, copper and iron in this world, they will not bother with gemstones.

After Hubert dealt with the two intruders according to Scarre's law, they took Charlotte out of the interrogation room.
