0430: Nothing After Leaving Office.
"Crackling..."
A heavy closing sound attracted everyone's attention, and everyone in Hailan City looked towards the gate.
I saw that the gate of Hailan City was closed by several knights, and then they stood solemnly in front of the gate.
People in Hailan City were a little puzzled, and some were stopped when they wanted to leave the city, and they even had to be inspected.
"What's the matter? Why did you close the city gate in broad daylight?"
"Could it be that the pirates are coming again? What about the people outside the city? There are also many people in the port."
"It doesn't look like it? Is there something else going on?"
The people in the city had different opinions. They were very curious about why the city gate was closed suddenly, but they were also a little scared.
After all, sometimes the city gates are closed because of pirates, or a coup d'état among the nobles in the city.
But everyone didn't hear the sound of pirates invading, nor did they hear the "590" say that the nobles were gathering knights in private.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
"clang clang clang"
When the people in Hailan City were shocked and frightened, the sound of dense footsteps and armor clashing interrupted everyone's thoughts.
Teams of heavily armed knights were running on the main avenue, and hundreds of knights were evenly dispersed into dozens of teams.
These dozens of teams were dispersed into four groups, heading to the four districts of Hailan City, knights could be seen in both the avenue and the auxiliary avenue.
This scene shocked the people in Hailan City even more. Most of them were frightened and ran back home, while a small number chose to stay to see the situation.
No one knows what will happen next, but intuition tells everyone that things today are not easy.
At this time, in a stone brick building in Huyun District.
Rastan and others gathered in the house on the second floor, sitting in the hall and drinking happily.
Rastan happily held his wine glass, with a contented look on his face, and said, "It's really good, everyone give me a drink.
The asylum fee he has collected these days is enough to make them cool for a while, and it will be fine to wait until the coins are spent.
"Boss, should we raise the asylum fee? Those guys still look rich." A short and fat man said.
"Yes, we can raise it to eight copper coins in twenty days, and those guys will obediently give it." A man missing a front tooth echoed.
Rastan rubbed his stubbled chin, thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then next time I will charge eight copper coins.
It's just that they spend too much, go to the pub every night to drink, and go to the brothel every now and then to have fun.
How can there be so many coins for Rastan and others to squander, so they can only keep collecting protection fees.
"Boss, shall we still go to Xuehua Tower tonight?" The short and fat man smiled lewdly.
Xuehualou is a well-known brothel in Hailan City, and many businessmen who come to do business come for it.
"Go, have a good time tonight......"
"boom!"
Before Rastan finished speaking, the door of their room was knocked down, and standing at the door was a team of fifteen knights.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
"Don't move, squat down."
The knights who were ready to go rushed into the room fiercely, knocking Rastan and others to the ground in two or three strokes.
"Who? Who are you?"
Rastan and the others struggled desperately, and some even drew their daggers to resist, but they were definitely not the opponents of the knights.
"What are you going to do? Is it against the law to drink in your own home?" Rastan shouted at the top of his voice.
He was firmly held down by two knights, and he couldn't break free no matter how big he was and how strong he was.
"We are from the patrol team. You are suspected of oppressing civilians and collecting asylum fees maliciously. Now you are going to be locked up in a dungeon to await a public trial." The leading knight said in a deep voice.
"Nonsense, we never did such a thing." Rastan argued with a blushing face.
"Whether it's true or not, Lord Marquis will have a public trial." The leading knight shouted sharply.
Rastan was visibly panicked, and cursed angrily, "You bastards, do you know who my brother-in-law is? My brother-in-law is a city defense officer.
"Snapped."
The leading knight slapped Rastan hard, and said coldly, "Your brother-in-law is no longer a city defense officer.
The original city defense officer is not an aristocrat, and he is nothing after leaving office.
He clapped his hands and didn't respond to Rastan's clamor, and let the knights escort him away.
"Tat Tat Tat..."
The patrol team escorted Rastan and others away from Huyun District, heading towards the prison on Shengtian Road.
The prison in Hailan City was set up near the Ori District, where the former city defense officer worked.
People on the main avenue saw that Rastan was caught by the patrol team, and they all ran over to join in the fun.
"It really deserves it, I didn't expect this guy to have today..."
"The new Lord Marquis is really powerful. He actually arrested him as soon as he said he would. Rastan has brought disaster to our Hailan City."
"I heard that many people complained to the neighborhood management department, and the arrester seems to be a knight from the patrol team.'
"
The residents of Hailan City who joined in the fun were all very happy, including Amaru and Cisco.
They looked at the patrol team in shock, and then looked at Rastan and the others who were being held down. They no longer had the arrogance they had before.
"It's actually... really useful.
Amaru squeezed his thigh in disbelief, trying to use the pain to tell himself that it was not a dream.
"Yeah, it's only been a day since we filled out that form, right?" Cisco stared wide-eyed toward the main avenue.
After filling out the information and returning home, they always sleep uneasy. Apart from worrying that their appeals will not be taken seriously,
There is also the worry of being discovered by Rastan and others, and then coming to the door for revenge.
Originally, Amaru and Cisco were going to move goods at the port today, but who knew the city gate was closed.
Amaru suddenly saw Rastan glance over, and his heart ached instantly.
He nervously tugged on his friend's hand, worried, "Tell me, will they be released?"
"Probably not, they have all been arrested, and they have indeed done these things, it is unlikely to be released. Cisco comforted his friend.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
2.9 Suddenly, a burst of footsteps attracted the attention of Amaru and others, and another knight team came out from the White Tower area.
They belonged to the patrol team of Baita District, and escorted more than a dozen men to the main avenue.
Not only that, the other two districts also had patrol teams detaining people, and there were quite a few of them.
This scene shocked everyone in Hailan City. They have never seen this scene after living in the city for so long.
What they saw most was knights oppressing civilians, but they never thought that there would be a day to help them get justice.
"Hailan City is about to change."
"Yes, it seems that the new nobleman from Hailan City is a good man."
"Who's to say otherwise? He's a hero of the Empire, that's great."
Everyone on the main avenue was deeply moved, and some even had tears in their eyes.
