Chapter 229 - 229 229 The Final Verdict

229: Chapter 229: The Final Verdict 229: Chapter 229: The Final Verdict “I always feel there’s something special about this person,” Judge Pan said.

“Team leader, don’t listen to his nonsense; this is a matter concerning the lives of your family members.”

“Exactly, Old Pan, just follow the strategy we discussed.”

A few people were discussing back and forth, but Old Pan sat there without saying anything, simply in silence.

As the presiding judge, he held the deciding power, so his words were the most critical.

Xiang Yu walked out and sat down in his original spot without a word.

If this trial was unjust, he wouldn’t mind giving that Mr.

Pan a good lesson.

In fact, this trial wasn’t very important to Xiang Yu; he just wanted to provide Ouyang Xiu with some psychological closure.

Ouyang Xiu was eager to use this avenue to avenge his father.

Fifteen minutes later, Ouyang Ke was brought back into the courtroom.

The judges took their seats one after another.

Then the debates on both sides began again, but this time the judges clearly favored Ouyang Ke’s side.

Ouyang Ke sat there with his head raised in a carefree manner, believing he would definitely walk out free today.

He had been in this position before, and every time he had walked out unscathed.

At that moment, Ouyang Ke couldn’t help but glance at Xiang Yu and his group and snorted coldly in his heart.

Once he got out, he would make sure they suffered a fate worse than death.

The calm expression on Xiang Yu’s face annoyed him; it was as if nothing was worthy of Xiang Yu’s attention.

Ouyang Ke resolved that once he was free, the first one he would eliminate would be Xiang Yu.

It was only with Xiang Yu’s support that Ouyang Xiu dared to stand up against him, and Xiang Yu had even played him for a fool.

Sitting there, Ouyang Xiu felt the atmosphere was somewhat off, quite tense.

If it weren’t for Xiang Yu’s composed expression, he would have given up already.

At that moment, he caught Ouyang Ke’s chilly gaze.

But naturally, Ouyang Xiu was not one to show weakness, and he glared back at his opponent.

After another intense debate, all the decision-making power was now in the hands of the judges.

At this moment, everyone held their breath, eager to see whether a big villain like Ouyang Ke would be sentenced to death outright.

At this time, Ouyang Ke looked at Xiang Yu with a victorious gaze.

But Xiang Yu seemed uninterested in these matters and was casually eating peanuts.

The judges were all looking at Old Pan, hoping he would hurry up and make the announcement, proceeding as they had planned.

Old Pan steadied himself, then picked up the gavel in front of him and knocked it down, loudly declaring, “Now I pronounce…”

Just as Old Pan was about to make the announcement, he glanced at Xiang Yu again and saw him unconcerned with the case, looking down and peeling peanuts.

Suddenly, he felt there was something very mysterious about this man, and a fleeting thought made him change his mind.

“I pronounce that Ouyang Ke is sentenced to death, with a two-year reprieve,” he declared.

Old Pan’s judgment left the other judges dumbfounded, with one of them even walking right up to Old Pan, incredulously asking, “Old Pan, have you lost your mind?

Your wife is still in their hands, what are you thinking?”

The other judges also looked incredulous but did not react as emotionally as him.

But Ouyang Ke was totally dumbfounded; what was this situation, how could it end like this.

Given the scene just now, everything outside should have been taken care of.

“I won’t accept this, I want to appeal, I won’t accept this…” Ouyang Ke screamed.

The two officers paid no attention to Ouyang Ke’s tantrum, and simply dragged him away.

Despite this, the people in the spectator seats were still not satisfied—according to Ouyang Ke’s actions, he should have been sentenced to death and executed immediately.

Therefore, there were continuous curses from the spectator seats, but they were not excited; this outcome was still somewhat acceptable.

The audience in the spectator seats gradually left, after all, they were just some concerned citizens who were not directly involved in the matter.

Meanwhile, Ouyang Xiu sat there and wept directly, ever since his father died.

He and his brother scavenged through trash to survive, hiding in graveyards and sleeping in junkyards to avoid Ouyang Ke.

Then he followed Xiang Yu, witnessed murders, and shot people.

After such a long time of training, such a long time of endurance, it was all for today, for this very moment.

He did it, he had found justice for his father.

At that moment, his tightly wound string seemed to suddenly snap, the emotions hidden deep within began to spiral out of control, and he suddenly burst into tears on the scene.

Men don’t easily shed tears, but then again, how many experience such tribulations, and who could understand the bitterness within them.

“Brother, stop crying, your wish has been fulfilled.” Tie Zhuzi’s eyes were also red, clearly affected by Ouyang Xiu’s emotions.

“Yu, thank you…” Ouyang Xiu suddenly broke into a smile through his tears and sniffled.

Xiang Yu just smiled faintly and said nothing more, then walked forward.

At this time, the judge was still standing in front of Old Pan, complaining to him, “Old Pan, have you lost your mind?

Are you joking with your family’s life?

Tell me what to do now, those people are desperadoes, and for all we know, the assassin might already be on the way.”

Old Pan himself didn’t know what to do at this point, as his decision during the sentencing was a sudden impulse.

“Just trust that idiot Xiang Yu, we’re out of this,” the man said, ready to turn and leave.

But as he turned, he bumped into Xiang Yu, “Are you blind, can’t you watch where you’re going?” The judge was already furious, and upon seeing Xiang Yu, his temper flared even more.

Xiang Yu didn’t say much, just grabbed him and ‘smack smack’ landed two slaps, stunning the people around them.

The other judges were shocked, this Xiang Yu was damn bold.

Tie Zhuzi and Ouyang Xiu stood there too, not reacting immediately; what was happening with Yu, the sentencing may not have been entirely fair, but it was something they could still accept.

The two armed police at the side were taken aback for a moment, then quickly surrounded Xiang Yu.

In truth, they were secretly pleased.

The judge was always arrogant, never considering them worth his notice, but they were in no position to challenge him due to their vastly different statuses.

Seeing Xiang Yu slap the man and knock his teeth out today was deeply satisfying to them, but they still had to do their basic duties, and quickly surrounded Xiang Yu, pointing at him and saying, “You need to leave now, don’t cause trouble here.”

“Leave?

It’s not that simple.

You two, arrest him immediately, he’s committed assault, he must be tried,” the man yelled, pointing at Xiang Yu.

But before his words could even finish, Xiang Yu slapped him again, and the people around them were at a loss as to why Xiang Yu bore such deep grudges against the man…
