Chapter 11 Framed(1/2)
Soon, the news that Emil and Sean were going to become Mosswood's apprentices spread in the weapons workshop. The recruits all expressed their congratulations, but the veterans had different opinions. They had been working for so long and were not selected.
But Emil and the others were chosen as soon as they arrived. This was too unfair. They all suspected that they had used the back door.
Therefore, when everyone found out that Emil and Sean had come out, the veterans turned a blind eye. Of course, Emil didn't care much about their opinions, but began to patiently guide the new recruits around him.
Under Mosswood's orders, the overseer no longer made things difficult for Emil and the others, but was instead asked to do his best to take care of them.
The overseer felt embarrassed at first. After all, he was Juan's man, and even Mosswood was the subject of his surveillance. How could he be selfish?
Mosswood understood this, but he added, "Juan did not monitor the weapons workshop personally. It doesn't matter if you turn a blind eye. Moreover, I was directly appointed by Lord Christy. If you show
Okay, maybe I can give you a few nice words in front of Lady Christy, how about that?"
When the supervisor heard this, he immediately changed his attitude and became kind to Mosswood.
"Okay, I'll just listen to you, old man."
In this way, the supervisor chose to ignore Emir's behavior of no longer working and instead directing the behavior of others.
After this incident, Emil's prestige among the recruits became even higher. The recruit who received the instruction at the beginning even treated Emil like a big brother, which made Emil embarrassed, but he felt as happy as drinking honey.
Thain stood not far away, watching the new recruits surrounding Emil, and felt a strange feeling for some reason.
…
A few hours passed, and the recruits had a good time. They talked and laughed around Emil. Sometimes some recruits damaged the iron piece, and the supervisor was about to write it down, but the results were all under Emil's persuasion.
give up.
The overseer is not the kind of person who is ignorant of current affairs. Rather, he is smarter than most people here. Seeing that the emir's prestige is so high, he will also flatter the emir intentionally or unintentionally.
However, Emil had not yet been carried away by the joy. He had long sensed that the group of veterans disliked him and might be looking for opportunities to frame him.
Later, when it was time to work overtime, the recruits also chose to rest because they relied on Emil, but Emil felt that this was not good. What if Juan came to make a surprise inspection?
At that time, Mosswood will definitely be in trouble. Although Mosswood accepted Christy's important task, Juan was obviously sent to supervise him. If he found that he was giving his apprentice special privileges, he would definitely come to
Complained in front of Christy.
"Everyone, I think it's better to abide by the rules. Of course, you don't have to rush to complete the task, just show it off, so Mosswood won't be embarrassed."
The recruits also agreed with Emil's words. After listening to the previous veteran's story, they learned that Mosswood was a very bloody man, but had to be controlled by Juan.
These recruits are young people who are not familiar with the world, but it is precisely because of this that they attach great importance to feelings, and naturally they will not harm others because of their own temporary enjoyment.
It's a pity that the veterans did not agree with the Emir. They all had the attitude of watching a good show and were passive and slow in work.
The supervisor quickly understood the situation here. He chose to side with Emil, so he ran over and wrote down all the veterans who gave up working overtime.
However, the veterans stopped pretending this time and directly surrounded the overseer, pushing and shoving him. The thin overseer couldn't bear it anymore and was soon pushed to the ground.
Seeing that some malicious veterans were about to step on him, the workshop door was suddenly kicked open.
It was a soldier wearing armor with a long sword hanging on his waist. After he opened the door, he quickly stepped aside and let the people behind him come in.
As expected, the person who came was none other than Juan. He had a leisurely look on his face, but suddenly found that his men were being bullied by the craftsmen, and he suddenly became furious.
"It's so contrary, you bastards! Don't you want to live?"
"Ah, no, it's none of our business." The veterans quickly defended.
"Yes, it's him..." another veteran said loudly.
But before he could finish speaking, another person covered his mouth.
"Silly, just say that Emil asked us to do it."
"Ah, yes, that's it."
The veterans came to a unanimous conclusion in an instant and put the blame on Emir.
Juan really believed it. He looked at Emil with eyes wide open.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Okay, it's you again. It's useless for anyone to plead with you this time."
"Tsk."
Emil secretly screamed that something was wrong. He began to regret helping those veterans eliminate their debts. Unexpectedly, his kindness was regarded as a fool.
Unexpectedly, Thain did not immediately stand up to plead for Emil. It was not that he didn't want to, but he himself felt strange. There seemed to be a trace of unfounded fear deep in his heart.
However, after hesitating for a while, he quickly abandoned his distracting thoughts and stood in front of Emil.
Juan couldn't help but snorted coldly when he saw his actions. Having seen countless people, he could see Sion's hesitation.
"Sion, I've warned you before, don't get too close to this kind of person. Look, now that he's causing trouble, you still have to wipe his ass. Why do you think it's such a bother?"
"That's not the case," Sain quickly explained, "Master Juan, don't listen to those people's nonsense. Think about it carefully. They are all veterans, and we just came today. How could they listen to the emir and go?"
Where are the men who bully you?"
This sentence is reasonable and well-founded, and any sensible person will think that this is how things should be.
But Emil didn't believe that Juan was this kind of person. For a guy like him, if others had a slightly different opinion, no, it wasn't even an opinion, he would have the intention to harm others. How could he do it today?
Why not miss the chance to kill Emir?
The emir knew very well Juan's reasons for targeting him, because he was embarrassed when he questioned him in public last night about the consolation money. In order to show his majesty and make others afraid to challenge him, he wanted to take action on the emir. Quan
This is to scare the monkeys.
It was Sion's persuasion that gave him a step down. He also understood that since the other party had begged for mercy, if he insisted on going his own way, it would only cause panic among the recruits, which would have the opposite effect.
But it's different now. Regardless of whether it was framed by the veterans or not, since Sean hesitated, it means that this is definitely the case, at least that's what Juan thinks.
So he directly ordered that the emir be kidnapped and thrown into prison. He also threatened that anyone who asked for mercy would be guilty of the same crime as the emir.
The recruits wanted to help, but when they heard this, they all thought of their own situation, and in the end they could only remain silent.
Emil doesn't blame them. He can understand even the veterans who framed him. After all, this is human nature. The fault is that he was too careless.
But as his best friend, Sion naturally couldn't just watch him go to jail. Even with Juan's warning, he was not afraid.
He finally figured out why he felt scared just now.
Before arriving in the army, the emir regarded him as a leader, but now in the army, the recruits all respected the emir, and no one looked down on him anymore. He was useless in front of the emir.
However, the rationality in his heart told him that this was wrong. If he really thought this way, he would be no different from those despicable people. Instead, he should be more ashamed of Emir.
In short, he felt scared because he had such cowardly thoughts. This was a betrayal of their friendship and was not allowed by his long-standing principles.
Now that he understood it, he was no longer afraid. Of course, Juan did not let him go and planned to put both of them in prison.
But at this moment, the supervisor suddenly stood up. He covered his forehead that was broken by a certain veteran, and complained to Juan with a grievance on his face.
"Sir Juan, you must make the decision for me. Don't let go of those scum who have insulted you."
When it came to the emotional part, the supervisor actually cried "Wow", with tears streaming down his face, as if he was feeling a great injustice.
"Okay, okay, don't I want to punish the initiator?" Juan looked disgusted.
"No, you misunderstood, it was not Emil who did it."
"What?"
"Tsk, tsk, you guys are so brave that you dare to deceive my Lord Huan. You're going to risk your life, right?"
The overseer accused the veterans with an arrogant look. Strangely, at this time, his tears and snot disappeared like magic.
"Oh, Lord Juan, please spare your life, we really didn't mean it." A veteran knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, and he quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.
This move also made it possible for them to gang up on the supervisor and then frame the Emir.
Although Juan felt a pity that he could not sanction the Emir, at the moment, what these veterans did made him even more angry. The most serious thing was that they injured the supervisor and damaged his face.
"That's how it turned out to be. Since it's
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
There is nothing more to say now. You guys, tie up these guys and put them in prison to await their punishment." Juan gave orders to the soldiers behind him.
The veterans suddenly panicked and knelt on the ground, kowtowing continuously. Some even cried and cried, and some even became incontinent.
Emil couldn't understand. The most he could do was to be put in jail. How could it be treated like a death sentence?
At this time, the supervisor noticed Emil's doubts and whispered in his ear.
"The prison here is quite cruel. No matter how serious the crime is, once you go in, you can't get out alive. It is said that the prisoners who died inside have no whole bodies, as if they were eaten to pieces by wild beasts.
.”
"Ah?" Emil was shocked, but soon discovered the blind spot, "You've never been in, how do you know?"
"You are stupid. Mr. Huan told me personally, how can he still be lying?"
"Pfft." Emil couldn't help laughing.
The overseer did not realize that Emil was laughing at him, and continued, "Emil, look, we have helped you a lot this time. Shouldn't you say something nice to me in front of Mosswood?
At this time, my brother's future depends on you."
Emil felt even more ridiculous when he heard this and thought, "Am I familiar with you? We are still brothers."
