Chapter 51 Overnight
Execution.
It exploded in the air like thunder, with an irresistible majesty and cruelty.
For a while.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the person who was about to be tortured. Some people showed sympathy, some were gloating, but more people just watched silently, secretly praying in their hearts that this torture would end as soon as possible.
However, something unexpected happened to everyone.
"and many more!"
Someone shouted.
These two words seemed to carry an irresistible magic, making the originally noisy crowd become extremely quiet in an instant.
As if an invisible hand was strangling their throats, everyone stopped talking and moving at the same time, and all eyes were cast towards the person who said this.
The air seemed to solidify at this moment, and time became unusually slow.
"Oh, is there some fun coming?"
Sitting in the main seat, Tutankhamun rubbed his sleepy eyes and perked up a little.
And this time.
Everyone could feel the change in the atmosphere around them, and a sense of nervousness welled up in their hearts. The dignitaries in the stands didn't know what would happen next, but were full of curiosity about what would happen next.
In this dead silence, people began to whisper to each other.
Various speculations and discussions intertwined together, forming a low buzz.
"Hey, hey, hey, did you hear that?"
"Nonsense! Who can't hear you so loud? But the one who is speaking is really asking for trouble! The noble Pharaoh is here, and you still dare to say something against him!"
"Who said that?"
.........
Who said that?
This was the question that everyone at the scene was wondering. The cameras next to the stands were desperately scanning the ground, trying to find that person.
"This trial was unfair. I request a review!"
The shouts rang out again.
Not too loud.
But he stood out among the whispering crowd.
"It's Master Yesu-sama!"
A slum dweller recognized it.
"Night Stay Master!?"
"Master Yesu, please tell me it wasn't you!"
"Mister Nightstay, are you kidding me?"
.........
More and more people began to shout, either to persuade or to express surprise...
The sound passed through the vast crowd, through the execution platform, and finally reached the stands above.
"Overnight stay?" Tutankhamun felt confused.
"Overnight stay!", the democrats were shocked.
The camera quickly locked onto the vacuum in the crowd.
The one who said "wait".
The one who filed for the review.
He was a young man in his twenties. Although he was standing in the slums, his face had something that people had never seen before.
light.
He stood quietly under the scaffold, as firm as a pine or cypress.
He is the overnight stay.
"Ye Su, the nominal No. 2 of the Democratic Party? The leader of the untouchables in the slums?"
"Hahahahaha!"
Tutankhamun became interested and glanced at the empty seat of Altoli again.
"Dear Alto, you are worthy of being me! This is what a leader should be like, hahahahaha!"
Tutankhamun signaled to his guards to bring the microphone over.
Taking the microphone, he stretched lazily and looked down at the crowd.
"Ye Su, I have heard of your name, but you..."
"Are you challenging Pharaoh's authority?"
Tutankhamun's angry rebuke caused all the people in the slums below the execution platform to panic and they all knelt down to beg.
"No, Master Tutankhamun, I just think someone is blaspheming God."
Ye Su responded neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"what!?"
"Hahaha??(???*), no...my stomach..." Tutankhamun's big white teeth were exposed more and more.
"You said there are still people blaspheming God? Hahaha, then tell me who it is?"
"Is it them?" Tutankhamun pointed at the dignitaries around him.
"Or them?" He raised his hand again and pointed his scepter at the democrats.
The person being pointed at shook his head vigorously and cursed Ye Su in his heart.
Bow down.
Looking at the night stay still silent.
Tutankhamun thought about it, then pointed the scepter at himself with a playful look on his face.
"still me?"
The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.
"It's all possible."
"I think someone has blasphemed the god of the underworld, Osiris."
Ye Su answered loudly.
"Etc., etc."
"Overnight stay, you mean..."
"We all blasphemed!"
Tutankhamun excitedly held his stomach and laughed wildly, "Hahaha??(???*)", until tears flashed in his eyes.
After a long pause, he continued to ask.
"Then tell me, how did we blaspheme the God of the Underworld?"
"It's very simple."
Ye Su pointed at the [Scales of Judgment].
"Great God of the Underworld, Osiris is not only the God of the Underworld, he is also the God of Justice!"
"I think Your Excellency Tutankhamun should know that the [Scales of Judgment] was built based on the scales of the God of Justice!"
"Yeah, indeed."
Tutankhamun changed his previous cheerful state, and his eyes gradually became serious and scary.
"As we all know, the [Scales of Judgment] represents fairness and justice, and represents the great scales of Osiris, so..."
"It also represents the great Osiris!"
Ye Su finished his speech.
This reason was a bit far-fetched, but no one refuted it.
Those powerful people are like this.
This is what the democrats do.
The same is true of Tutankhamun.
In the present era when theocracy has completely penetrated, the far-fetched is the truth.
In the silence of the crowd.
Ye Su spoke again.
"But today, someone wiped out justice in front of the God of Justice!"
"If this isn't blasphemy, then what is?"
.........
Time passed by minute by minute.
Tutankhamun casually threw a plate of raw meat into the birdcage and showed his big white teeth again.
"Ye Su, according to what you said, this heretic should be wrongly accused."
"Yes."
"You said we violated justice, but the oracle was destroyed in that person's home. That is an undeniable fact."
"That only means that it was destroyed in his house, not by him. What's more, I can prove that the oracle was intact before it left with me to do business!" Ye Su said as he produced relevant evidence.
"That's just your one-sided statement."
"The evidence only proves that the oracle is complete when it is with you."
"or……"
"Shall we ask this lovely heretic sinner?"
Tutankhamun pointed his scepter at the middle-aged man
"Think about it, sinner!"
"To the great Supreme God—Ra."
"To your innocent family,
To your own beliefs,
Then face Ye Su who stood up for you."
"Did you destroy the oracle?"
