Do not confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 40 Lankey's Trap



Chapter 40 Lankey's Trap
Seeing Huberian's attitude, the corners of Modan's mouth curled up slightly, but there was no smile in his pupils.

"Huberian... No one would be willing to hand over their backs to such a dirty thing as you, but I don't mind, because you have no ability to resist me."

The contempt in his eyes seemed to have long regarded Huberian as a plaything in his hands,
"One day you will come to beg me, it's just a matter of whether it will be sooner or later. After all, you also know that it is impossible to find your father by yourself... But by then, you will have no dignity at all." No, I assure you."

He lowered his voice and said next to Huberian.

His original intention was to humiliate Huberian, and now he will not act.

"..."

Huberian clenched her hands tightly, but clenched her teeth and couldn't say anything.

Even though she was filled with anger, a deep, uncontrollable anger, she didn't want to talk to the bastard.

And she also knows that there is no strength that can threaten the enemy at all, and all rebuttals and threats are just bluffs.

Not only will it not make the other party feel scared, but it will only make the other party more happy and worse.

Even if Huberian wanted to defeat Mortan severely through a duel and teach him a lesson, she couldn't do it.

Motan, the third-year gold-level registered challenger of the Academy of the Sages, has already surpassed Huberian by a large margin in terms of strength, and she still has to waste this precious first year not being able to challenge the Shadow World.

The gap between her and Motan will also become wider and wider.

"It seems that I was right. You don't even have the courage to resist me."

Seeing Huberian's appearance, Motan seemed to be satisfied, and even let out a light laugh unabashedly, as if it was a kind of enjoyment.

Motan's laughter from time to time is not only an insult to her, but also a trample on her always noble identity and dignity.

"Back then, the duchess, who was known as Hutton's once-in-a-century talent, now needs to use a crappy lawyer in order to pass the entrance examination of Icarite College. It's really sad."

However, after these words, Huberian seemed to finally be unable to bear it anymore, and glared at Modan viciously.

"Oh? Someone is angry?"

Modan squinted his eyes and knew that Huberian had taken the bait. This princess could always endure other people's harsh words, but he couldn't bear to let others slander her friend. He knew it too well.

Just when he was about to continue playing with Hubrian's mentality with words.

"and many more……"

A slightly sleepy voice caught their attention.

The conversation between Motan and Hubrian just now seemed to have woken Lan Qi up.

He was very sleepy at first, and almost fell asleep again when he was half asleep, but when he heard that this guy named Motan seemed to have kidnapped him, the nature of the matter changed.

Lan Qi turned his head sideways with sleepiness in his eyes, and stared at the two who had been talking just now with his arms on his pillow.

"Modan...student? You should look up the student rules of Icarite College. You shouldn't have called Huberian a 'dirty thing' just now. It is written in line 35 on page 13 that personal attacks on other students are Violation of school rules."

Casual words echoed in the classroom, and the air fell silent under this sudden change.

Huberian subconsciously turned her head to look, Lan Qi was still lying on her stomach with a lazy expression, but it was completely different from before.

Mo Dan frowned and looked at the boy who was whispering with drooping eyes, and the emerald green pupils were faintly visible like jewels glowing with dim light.

He didn't even notice that there was a guy sleeping on his stomach quietly, but he didn't expect that the rumored monster with black hair and green eyes was here.

But listening to Lan Qi's words, he definitely meant to disrupt the situation, which made Modan laugh.

"I just attacked her personally, so what can I do?"

Motan's voice was as cold as a cold wind, as if warning Lan Qi's life.

Everyone knows that this kind of school rule that only thunders but never rains will never have actual punishment.

Lan Qi's reminder is as naive and ridiculous as a child suing his parents.

Lan Qi finally raised his head when he heard the words, and sat upright.

He was probably convinced that this guy named Motan really liked to mock others with words, and he would start to sneer back after saying a few words.

Unfortunately, a layman of the mind.

"Did you know? Hutton Kingdom is guilty of insulting, slandering and insulting nobles. Although the two of you strictly speaking cannot constitute the third crime with criminal responsibility before you officially inherit the title, it is at most a civil dispute." However, Miss Huberian's application to inherit the title of duke must have been submitted since her father disappeared, and now she is just stuck in the cumbersome processing stage. If it is passed, then the time for her to become duke, according to the Hutton Kingdom The regulations are counted from the date of filing, at which time, she will be able to sue you for insulting her Duchess with harsh personal attacks and frivolous words. And there are so many witnesses present, you can't escape, as for fines or Going to jail depends on your attitude of admitting your mistakes."

Although Lan Qi's voice was steady, there was a kind of majesty in the calmness of Skynet.

After such words fell.

In the classroom where there were still chatter, the atmosphere seemed to be frozen for a moment.

All the students in the classroom were either eavesdropping, curious, or staring, and most of them looked towards the back row of this classroom.

It is very common for senior students to come to the classroom of the new grade to have a brief talk with interested newcomers.

Even though Motan's words and deeds did make many students in the classroom feel a little uncomfortable - the relationship between the Marquis of Mortan and Princess Huberian was obviously not a normal friendly solicitation.

However, it was Huberian that Motan oppressed. Generally, no one would dare to get involved in such complicated personal grievances between nobles.

No one wanted to get involved with this ominous princess, and no one wanted to offend a powerful and powerful senior team leader like Mo Dan.

But now, the No.1 freshman of the Academy of Sages can't stand it anymore, and wants to face the Marquis head-on!
In fact, many people present understood that the crimes mentioned by Lan Qi were not very threatening, and at most they could be resolved by admitting their mistakes and adding a fine.

The disgusting thing about Lan Qi is that——

If he really wanted to be serious and win the case against Modan, and let Modan's majestic Marquis get a criminal record for committing crimes during school, this shame would be like a brand, and it would become a joke in the aristocratic circle and accompany him throughout his life.

but.

Mortan Garcigues is not such an easy character...

Up to this moment, Modan still didn't change his face, and was not moved by Lan Qi's words in the slightest.

After listening to Lan Qi's words, Modan just smiled.

"Lucky Lankey Wilford, I know you know a little about the law and like to 'speak justice'. But this kind of cleverness is useless to me, and I will in turn sue you for defamation and provoking trouble."

He narrowed his eyes with a smile, mocking Lan Qi's youthfulness and stupidity condescendingly.

As a nobleman, he obviously knows more about "crime of insulting nobles" than Lan Qi.

Even if there were witnesses present, the "insult" was only Lan Qi's subjective judgment, and if he really had to go to court, Lan Qi had no way to objectively prove that Motan had a strong intention to insult.

Although Hutton's country has strict laws and an efficient judicial execution process, it is not as strict as the holy country in the shadow world of [Winter's Hidden Flames].

Some crimes are always difficult to convict, unless you have an absolutely overwhelming lawyer to help you.

"I insulted her? How do you prove that to a judge? Can you read my thoughts and intentions?"

Motan asked Lan Qi in a mocking tone.

"You admitted it yourself."

Lan Qi replied lightly.

"...?"

Lan Qi's words obviously stunned everyone in the classroom.

But they soon found out.

In the beginning, Motan did ask Lan Qi—"I just attacked her personally, so what can I do?"

It’s over.

Modan was caught by Lan Qi's logic!
