Chapter 1483

“Eight years ago, you had a lover that got pregnant. She planned to give birth to the child, but you

secretly got some people to abort the baby. Here’s the information on your lover’s treatment records in

the hospital. We also have a DNA report of the unborn child.

“Five years ago, you secretly took down a consortium and made a ten billion-dollar profit. Here’s the

relevant evidence.”

Francesco looked at the presented evidence and read them out one by one.

Hearing this, Graydon’s face paled. He roared, “Impossible! This is impossible! I’m being framed! I

didn’t do this! I didn’t do any of it! I want to see Lance! I want to see the King!

“You’re not qualified to trial me, James!

“I’m a three-star general, James! You need an approved document from the King to arrest and put me

on trial! Where’s the document? Without a document, you have no right to convict me!”

Graydon panicked and kept shouting.

James got up, walked toward Francesco, and picked up the large stack of documents. Then, he slowly

walked toward Graydon.

“Over the past decade, thirty people have died in your hands, Graydon. Moreover, the funds in your

account amount to one hundred and eighty billion dollars. Even if Lance showed up in person today, he

would not be able to save you.

“Based on the crimes you’ve committed over the years, even a hundred shots wouldn’t be sufficient

punishment.”

Graydon glared at James and said with resentment, “I don’t believe you dare to kill me, James. I’ll kill

you if you try! I won’t die today!”

“You can go ahead and try.”

James was not threatened by him at all.

He turned to the courthouse’s chief justice in front of him and asked coldly, “Chief Justice, we’ve

collected so much evidence. Please make a conviction.”

Hearing this, the group of jurors began to discuss.

After discussing for ten minutes, Francesco said, “I announce that Graydon is guilty and will be

deprived of his three-star general military rank. Since this matter is significant, I suggest we take him

into custody for the time being and wait for a juridical review.”

“Why do we need to take him into custody? It’s a crime worthy of the death penalty! He should be

executed to death immediately!”

James was dissatisfied with the trial result. He glared at Franceso and said, “Chief Justice, you should

think twice. There’s conclusive evidence of his crime. The crimes he committed are worth being shot

dozens of times.”

With helplessness on his face, Francesco said, “Emperor, this is no joke. He’s a three-star general.

Even with conclusive evidence, I’m the only one here. There isn’t any representative from the military

or government. I wouldn’t dare convict him.”

James said coldly, “The chief justice wouldn’t dare convict a criminal? Could it be that you’re also trying

to cover up for Graydon?”

“James, you better let me go. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you’re tortured to death.”

“You’re threatening me?”

James’ face darkened.

He pulled out his gun immediately.

Bang!

A gunshot resounded.

A bloody gunshot wound appeared on Graydon’s forehead.

“You…”

Graydon parted his lips.

Before he could finish his sentence, his body gradually fell to the floor.

Standing in front, the chief justice, Francesco, and the other jurors were dumbfounded.

This…

Killing in the courthouse was something they had never heard of or seen before.

They were frightened at that moment.

After James pulled out his gun, he ordered, “Clean up the body and surround the courthouse. Dispatch

the Red Flame Army and investigate all the employees of the courthouse. Don’t let anyone who has

committed any crime escape.”

Hearing this, Francesco trembled in fear and fell off his chair.

The same happened to the others. All of them collapsed to the floor in horror.

James ignored the people in the courthouse.

He had to take control of the courthouse to prepare for the following clean-up and put people from

different factions on trial.

If someone else controlled the courthouse, they would restrict his future plans.
