Chapter 33 Inevitable mutation (2)

**The central hall of the court was full of figures, and slaves holding files were shaking shoulder to shoulder, shouting and handing them upwards.⊥Although Cicero and Li Bida both shirked the responsibilities of the judge, they still paid close attention to the case, and sat upright in the first place in the auditor's seat, surrounded by dozens of veterans and knights selected. In fact, they are also the role of playback. Their words about the trial content of this case were complementary to the publicly posted Akuta.

"Who is the prosecutor?" After sitting down from the seat, Li Bida asked Cicero curiously beside him, but Cicero remained silent. Li Bida asked again and only got an answer of "no advice". It was obvious that the high priest became a little angry and began to turn to the elders around him. At this time, a person finally attached himself to the left ear of the high priest, and told him the name of the prosecutor - "How could it be him?" Li Bida said with great shock and annoyance - which aroused the elders around him sighed again.

Cicero still sat upright, like a statue.

In the dim side cottage, the young man who was deprived of the name of Caesar and turned back into Tulinus, with messy hair and bloodshot eyes, holding his bearded face with his hands, squatting on a small chair, with empty walls on three sides of the room, with only one door facing out, four centurions stood there expressionlessly, and there was a Shinu with a golden wrist ring, who was responsible for the defendant to "communicate" with the judges. A chaotic shouting and discussion came in from outside, mixed with the sound of the sergeants knocking on the floor and asking for purging.

Soon after, everything slowly became silent. After the four centurions nodded to each other, they rumbled to close the only door. Tulinus was submerged in a dim light, and only a little sunlight leaked from the narrow windows of seven Roman foot heights became the only lighting in the room.

He was completely unaware of what was being said outside. This unknown state was the most terrifying. It seemed that from any dark corner, a beast or killer would suddenly appear. He was put to death.

"Don't be afraid, calm down, Turinus, you are the young Caesar, you are the heir of Julius. They will never do anything to you? Even if they are guardians, he must consider Corina's demands." Turinus kept cheering himself up.

In front of him was an hourglass quarter of an hour with a slight hissing sound. After about a full day, the door opened again, and Tulinus used his hands to block the stimulating light. The document was walked in by Shi Nu and handed him the engraved words board. "You can read it yourself. If there is a place to argue, you can write it yourself or dictate it. I will write it on your behalf."

"No, I'll write it myself." Tulinus looked at the other party with distrust and snatched the board.

The above is the testimony of centurion Sifax, saying that he and another centurion Bitaes were the leader who incited the twin legion to attack Lilibi and attempted to kill the son of the high priest. However, Sifax also confessed that his entry was the military civilian guardian Vonteuz.

And Fonteuz, also once the 10th Legion of Caesar, is now his military academy. Tulinus, who was full of signboards engraved with confession seals, rolled his eyes a few times, "I deny these nonsense accusations. Now all the information I have received shows that the mutiny of the Twin Legion was just the private actions of several centurions. The only place they had to do with me was that they were all veterans of my adoptive father, His Excellency Caesar, but how to convict me just based on this? Could it be that all the crimes of the adopted veterans need me to be responsible for? This is completely unreasonable to the law, and spreading it out will be the greatest shame of the civil law." After carefully carving these words, Tulinus licked his cracked lips and handed them to the savior, asking him to send them to the judges. In addition, he also made a request, "I am very thirsty now, please give me water."

When the request of Turinus reached the auditorium, the high priest suddenly cried. He quickly asked the servants to send clear water, wine and wheat cakes in. Then he stood up and asked for a temporary recession to give his children and guardians appropriate treatment. But Cicero then also rose up and retorted, "High priest, I must warn you that you are just a auditor. The process of this case and the method of judgment have nothing to do with you and me!"

The whole court suddenly started to quarrel, and Bisuo finally knocked on the table and said, "You can give the defendant a quarter of the rest time." Only then did he calm down.

After a while, the new witness came on stage, so the door to Tulinus's room was opened again. Tulinus raised his face hopefully, and was then sent by Shi Nu to a brand new font board in his hand.

The seal confessed by Vonteuus was engraved on it, which made Turinus feel like he was being slaughtered at that time and almost didn't hold the word board. He seemed to remember that he was surrounded by traitors in the end: Mesenas was open, and this Vonteuus was secret - this and Avenus came to join his army as soon as possible, wasn't it just that he was instructed by his guardian? Later, Avenus died in battle, and he always regarded Vonteuus as his most trusted person, but now he felt that he was wrong. Vonteuus and Avenus had both been dismissed from military positions by their adoptive fathers and had suffered insults. Perhaps in their hearts, there was only hatred for the Julius family, but this hatred was cleverly disguised on Vonteuus.

Wonteyus confessed: He had obtained sufficient funds to buy the two centurions and the twin legions, and attacked the city of Lilibi.

However, Wonteyus did not say that he had a higher level, or that he took all the crimes on himself very happily and did not reveal the extra person. This finally made Turinus relieved, and then he was even more puzzled by Wonteyus' positioning.

"I have no idea about Wonteuz's behavior. What he wants to do has nothing to do with me. In addition, as far as I know, he was dismissed by my adoptive father for inciting mutiny. Perhaps mutiny was his greatest hobby and interest in his life?" Tulinus once again engraved these words on the back of the lyrics and handed them to the hands of the slaughter.

"May I have your name?"

"Diros, my priest."

"Is it the hometown where Apollo was born?"

"How did I know? I just know some Greek, so my master released me and gave me this name." Diros placed the jug on the ground, then caught the zipboard and walked out.

Turinus lay on the jug, drank a big mouthful of cow, and began to cry after drinking it. He missed his mother and sister. Of course, what Turinus feared the most was: he was betrayed and interrogated, what role did Corinna play in it?

He was just passively thinking about it.
