The man's face was full of frost, and his icy eyes looked at her and said, "There are national laws and family rules, and if you made a mistake on the Ling family's territory, you can't afford to be sophomoric."
He waved his hand and out from behind him came several men who carried up what was actually a very large cross.
At the first sight of such a thing, it is easy to recall an old legend that strikes fear into the hearts of men.
Seeing that after those people put down the cross, each one of them walked towards themselves in a fierce manner, Sierra Moore was so scared that her legs went weak and she hurriedly took two steps backward.
"Let go of me!" She just wanted to get out of here now, but with her shoulders pinned down, there was no chance to escape, "What do you want?"
When her wrist was grabbed, Sierra Moore's terrified gaze looked at the old man, "This is a society of law and order, you can't use lynching."
The old man laughed coldly, "This is the the Foster Family, no law of any country can govern here."
As she was pulled toward the cross, Sumo cried and resisted, "Let go of me, I didn't kill anyone, I want to see Grandpa! I want to see Grandpa!"
"God forbid you make a mistake, no matter who comes, they can't protect you, tie her up."
"No, don't tie me up! Xiao Nan Night! Nathan Shaw!" Sierra Moore screamed and struggled, but still didn't escape being tied to the cross.
Being tied to a cold cross, only after experiencing this moment for herself would she know what fear meant, and now no one could save her except for Xiao Nan Night.
The old man ignored her hysteria and spoke indifferently, "Ling family law, those who have made a mistake are subject to whipping, give me a beating, beat her until she admits her mistake!"
Seeing someone approaching with a whip, Sierra Moore shook her head vigorously, all the blood in her biting lips.
She looked at the man who raised his whip at her and said through clenched teeth, one word at a time, "I'll say it again, I, didn't, kill, anyone!"
The man was startled by her scarlet eyes, and his raised hand paused for a moment, as if hesitating whether or not to strike down with this whip.
Immediately following, the old man's even colder voice came, "Give it to me, fight!"
Snap!
A hard whip hit her body, and Sierra Moore screamed miserably, only to feel her whole body shivering.
She looked at the whip-wielder with a mouth full of blood, "You're abusing lynching, when my husband comes back, he won't spare you."
The threat didn't stop the other man, instead he followed it up with another whip down.
Seeing Sierra Moore's hateful eyes, he laughed coldly, "The the Foster Family's Law Enforcement Hall is not something that has been passed down to this day, and even if he, Nathan Shaw, is more powerful, it is impossible for him to go against the entire the Foster Family, unless, he seeks death!"
When the third whip came down, Sumo suddenly yelled out the number 'three' and the man asked her, "What are you counting?"
As soon as Sierra Moore opened her mouth full of blood, she said with tears in her eyes, "I'm going to remember how many lashes you beat me with in total today, so that in the future I can return them one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one!"
"Then count it!" The man's raised whip was about to fall again.
Just at this time, a shout came from behind the crowd, "Stop, Master Ling is here!"
The moment she saw Ling Huaifeng appear, Sierra Moore only felt deflated, and if she hadn't had her body secured by the chains, she definitely wouldn't have been able to stand.
"Grandpa ... they wronged me ..." said Sierra Moore aggrieved.
Ling Huaifeng nodded, "I know everything, child, I've wronged you."
Seeing that Sierra Moore was tied to the cross in a sorry state, and that they had used torture on her, anger rose in the bottom of Ling Huaifeng's heart.
He turned to look at the old man who presided over the execution, "Sixth Uncle, the truth of the matter hasn't even been found out yet, isn't it too much for you to do so."
That Ling Clan elder turned his head to look at him, "Huai Feng, as the head of the Ling Clan, you shouldn't be ignorant of the Ling Clan's rules! I advise you to stay out of the Law Enforcement Hall's affairs."
Ling Huaifeng's cold eyes sank as he looked at him and said, "Sixth Uncle, I think you're getting old!"
Although no one in the Ling family dared to challenge the authority of the Law Enforcement Hall, Ling Huaifeng had never been an obedient master since he was a child, and the more you said what couldn't be done, the more he would go against you.
What's wrong with the Law Enforcement Department?
What he should be worried about right now was Little Five, that kid would never stop.
Ling Huaifeng coldly looked at the old man of the Ling family, "Xiao Wu brought his daughter-in-law back to see me, that's his filial piety to me as a grandfather, now that he's not here, I, as a grandfather, can't let his daughter-in-law be bullied by others."
The old man of the Ling family was very unhappy with his approach, those cloudy old eyes looked icily at Ling Huaifeng, "What do you mean, she doesn't need to be punished if she made a mistake?"
Ling Huaifeng said, "I don't mean that." Those cold eyes buried a touch of worry deep in the bottom of their eyes as they swept over Sierra Moore.
"I've just been to the hospital, and Xueyi told me herself that her mother wasn't pushed down the stairs by Sierra Moore, and you guys don't have any evidence at all that can prove that she did this."
"Strong words!" The old man's hands were shaking with anger.
"Sixth Uncle, you should know clearly in your heart that if I am here today, no one can touch Xiao Wu's daughter-in-law, why don't we each take a step back today, you let me take the person away, and within three days, I will send the real murderer to you." Ling Huaifeng said.
At this time, someone from the Oldest Two's lineage stood up and said, "Eldest Uncle, Naka is still lying in the hospital alive or dead, if you're going to take this woman away now, how will you explain this to your brothers?"
Ling Huaifeng turned his sight to this person who dared to provoke his majesty, "I said that the murderer is someone else, you guys are holding onto Sierra Moore like this, is it that you don't want to apprehend the real murderer at all!"
The square was in an uproar at these words.
"As long as you give me three days, I will definitely find out the truth and give the Law Enforcement Hall an explanation." As he spoke, Ling Huifeng's gaze turned back to the the Foster Family's old man.
The Ling family elder's grim gaze, for the first time, showed traces of wavering, after all, Ling Huifeng was the current family head, his face still had to be given.
However, the oldest two of the vein of the bias is unforgiving, "What is the truth, someone witnessed Sierra Moore push someone down this is the truth, at the scene, in addition to her fingerprints and footprints, there is no third person's, this is the truth!"
Ling Huaifeng snorted coldly, "The person you mentioned, did she really see Sierra Moore push someone down the stairs with her own eyes? Aside from her one-sided statement, what other evidence can you come up with?"
The rain fell, pitter-patter, pitter-patter, and the square fell into a temporary silence.
Just as the two sides were in a tit-for-tat stalemate, a voice suddenly came out from the crowd.
"I can prove it."
Sierra Moore shuddered at her words, and when she looked up, she saw Ling Xue Tong walk out from the crowd, "I can prove that Sierra Moore is the murderer."
Ling Xue Ting tried to pull her but didn't, and then she saw her walk into the crowd's line of sight with her head held high, her slender jade hand pointing at the person on the cross and said, "Before Mrs. Naka's accident, Xue Ting and I went to look for her, and the period of time after she left just happened to coincide with the time of Mrs. Naka's accident."
Seeing her come out to identify Sierra Moore, Ling Huaifeng frowned, he remembers that this girl likes to stick to Xiaowu since she was a child, how come she doesn't help and come out to make trouble now?
"Xue Tong, think carefully before you say anything, the so-called time match is also just your estimation, the murderer is someone else!"
"The murderer is Sierra Moore!" Elsa Foster shouted as she lost control of her emotions, "Xue Ting and I can both testify!"
Ling Huaifeng's disappointed gaze swept over her and looked at the pale Ling Xueting, "Then tell me, why are you guys so sure that Sierra Moore is the murderer? What did you guys go to her for before the incident?"
Being swept away by Ling Huaifeng's cold eyes, Ling Xue Ting was trembling, and if it wasn't for the people next to her holding her up, she probably wouldn't even be able to stand.
For Ling Xue Tong dragging herself into the water, Ling Xue Ting's heart was very unhappy, but as things stood, she could only go along with her and pour dirty water on Sierra Moore's head.
"We, we went to apologize and reconcile with her, but, she didn't appreciate it and left in a huff."
Hearing her say that, the man who had spoken earlier continued, "Since he left in a huff, he must have been in a bad mood before he missed and pushed Mrs. Naka down the stairs."
He deliberately used the word 'miss', he was determined that Sierra Moore was the murderer.
"As long as she's willing to admit that she did this, I can beg the Law Enforcement Hall for leniency."
"Don't you dare!"
Not a single word of their conversation was missed by Sierra Moore, the rain washed her out even more, but that pride was still standing.
"I'll never admit to anything I haven't done, even if you guys beat me to death, I'll still say the same thing, I'm not a murderer, I'm wrongly accused!"
Being shocked and not sleeping all night, coupled with those whips just now, the current Sierra Moore was already very weak.
She coldly glanced at Ling Xue Tong, her eyes twirling as she swept over the expressions of everyone present, her tattered lips parting one by one.
"Ling Xue Tong, what kind of hatred do I have against you that you would do this to me!"
Elsa Foster didn't dare to look directly into her eyes and bit out, "At that time, who else could it be but you? Why don't you just honestly admit it and maybe you can reduce the chastisement."
"I didn't do it!" Even at this moment, Sierra Moore was still insisting that what she hadn't done, she would never admit!
"You've wronged me like this, Xiao Nan Night won't let you go!"
Ling Huaifeng coldly swept his eyes over the Ling Xue Tong sisters, and his gaze stopped on the person who just spoke out, "It seems that today, it's directed at me?"
The man didn't dare to look at Ling Huaifeng's eyes and said with his head lowered, "Eldest uncle, I'm just telling the truth, in the Ling family, no matter who has made a mistake, they all have to be punished, you can't ignore the majesty of the Law Enforcement Hall just because you're favoring your grandson."
Ling Huaifeng's heart said that it was not good, and when he turned his head, he saw that the Ling family's old man's face was half cold again, and the hint of relief just now disappeared.
"You don't have to say anymore!" The old man coldly glanced at Ling Huaifeng and pointed at the people in the square, "Give me a beating, I don't believe she won't confess today."
"I'll see who dares to touch her!"
This roar was as if it came from a distant hell, accompanied by a white lightning bolt that struck down on his head.
Boom, lightning and thunder!
