Chapter 115: Suicide out of fear of punishment



Auckland was taken to the hospital, where examination revealed that apart from being a bit frightened, he had no other physical problems. The doctor gave him two bottles of tranquilizers and told him to take them home and drink them to relax.

In order not to reveal his strength, Auckland used a trick to disguise himself as a Zerg, and stayed quietly below waiting for rescue. He perfectly demonstrated what it meant to have incredible luck and safely left the Zerg encirclement.

Although the incident did not cause any casualties, it was still thrilling and implicated the vice-president of the military academy in crimes of corruption, bribery, and negligent injury. The entire process was recorded by Auckland's classmates using a light computer, and the video quickly became one of the top ten hot news on the Star Network News Station.

After reading this news, General Arnold punched a hole in the table. "Useless! All useless! They can't even handle such a small matter!"

Despite such a thorough plan, he had made a breakthrough in his magic pattern research. Susan had lived up to expectations and successfully used the spatial magic pattern to create the first generation of mecha storage boxes! Anyone who owned a mecha would want to buy one, even the military. What a huge fortune!

With Oakland dead, the Berkeley family's inheritance would be meaningless. He had already bribed the Campbell family to withdraw the lawsuit and even had them testify that he had sold the ancient magic rune fragment to him with their consent. Not only could he shed his reputation as a thief, but he could also seize the opportunity to launch the mecha storage box and win over the people. By then, his reputation would undoubtedly surpass Carter Williams.

Charles already had enough leverage in Hall Williams's hands. Rather than letting him become a ticking time bomb, it was better to take the initiative. With that foolish woman from Isaac's family as a scapegoat, Charles could at most be convicted of manslaughter, which wasn't a capital crime. He had given him enough benefits to let him bear the blame.

If the plan succeeds, Isaac would not mind sacrificing one of his daughters in the face of huge benefits.

But what about now?! Oakland isn't dead! And I've offended Isaac for no reason! Charles is such a useless idiot!

General Arnold quickly calmed down, turned on his computer, and sent a message to a communication number - telling him to shut up.

Now he can only hope that Auckland doesn't know about this special magic pattern and it won't affect his plan!

That night, Charles Hank, the former vice-president of the First Federal Military Academy, committed suicide out of fear of punishment, leaving behind only an electronic suicide note, which explained that he had made such a big mistake because he had a personal grudge with Hall Williams and was waiting for an opportunity to take revenge. For many years, he had been relying on his position as vice-president to embezzle and accept bribes, and had done countless wrong things. In fact, Liz Isaac was just being used by him. Now that things have become so serious, he feels that he has no face to live in this world anymore.

"What a dead body with no evidence!" Chris was furious after hearing the news. "Could it be that old Percy has also planted people in the patrol team?"

"No, he did commit suicide." Hall retrieved the video surveillance in the interrogation room. Charles did commit suicide, but he had a communication record with his wife before his death. Others might think that this was his last words to his wife, but Hall knew that it must be Arnold Persil who used Charles' family to threaten him.

"That old guy Arnold Percy has turned the tables this time! He's going to make a fortune from the mecha storage box!" Chris was so angry that he almost exploded.

"That's not necessarily true." Oakland glanced at the mecha storage box on the computer news interface and shook his head slightly. "This is just the crudest version. I have a way to make a better storage device."

In the world of cultivation, almost everyone has storage devices, such as storage bags, storage rings, and storage bracelets. They simply use spiritual consciousness and special runes to create a space in a specific object. His spiritual consciousness was severely damaged before, so he didn't think of doing this, but now he can try it.

Oakland searched the room, finding no suitable tools for refining. Finally, he grabbed his usual backpack, which was roughly the size of a tablet. Joey had also been hiding in this small backpack when he secretly followed him to class. He formed a spell and used his spiritual sense to carve out an independent space within it. Unfortunately, his spiritual sense had only recovered to the Foundation Establishment stage, and due to its limitations, the space he created was only three cubic meters.

"You try it?" Oakland threw the backpack in his hand to Hall.

Hall was a little at a loss holding the backpack. He had never seen any storage device before and didn't know how to use it.

Auckland rarely saw him like this, and couldn't help but laugh, "Try using your mental power."

Hall released his mental power and probed into the small backpack. He was shocked to find that there was actually space inside...

"It's a bit small, but it's still big enough for a mech," Oakland said, adding, "This backpack is still a bit inconvenient. I'll buy some jewelry online and try it out."

Chris stared at Oakland in amazement.

Isn't that convenient?! Compared to the nearly half-meter-square suitcase Arnold Percy had brought out, this one from Auckland was infinitely superior, wasn't it?! And it only took him less than twenty minutes to make. He didn't believe Arnold Percy's suitcase took only twenty minutes! And...what did Auckland just say? What else could he use jewelry to make storage containers?

Why does it feel like a dream? Chris thinks there must be something wrong with how he woke up today...

Hall, however, was already used to being shocked. He put the small backpack aside, shook Auckland's hand, and asked, "Does this affect you?"

Auckland felt the situation in his sea of ​​consciousness and shook his head. "It's okay. It consumed a small part of my mental energy, so the impact is not big. I can make at least three or four pieces a day. I will be fine after drinking some soothing medicine and getting some sleep."

After hearing Oakland's answer, Hall finally felt relieved. He then said to Oakland, "Don't worry, I will let Arnold Percy give you an explanation for this matter."

"Okay." Oakland naturally trusted Hall very much.

The scene of the two smiling at each other was so warm and beautiful, but Chris on the side silently covered his eyes...

The next day, Hall Williams filed a lawsuit in federal court on behalf of her fiancé Oakland Campbell, accusing Arnold Passy of illegally appropriating other people's property and using it for his own profit, which violated federal law.

Since the Campbell family has retreated, he will do it himself. After all, Auckland is still a minor. As Auckland's fiancé and guardian, he has the right to file a lawsuit on his behalf!

This incident immediately made the headlines of StarNet News. Yesterday, the news about General Arnold Percy’s breakthrough in magic pattern research was still there, but today another incident happened to contradict him. The plot is really full of ups and downs!

The onlookers had a heated discussion on the message board under the news.

[Oh, I almost forgot about this. It seems General Arnold stole that ancient magic pattern fragment from Auckland's house!]

[You steal other people's things and then you have the nerve to sell them openly? How shameless!]

"That's right! He's a general! How shameless!"

Who knows if this is true? Maybe General Arnold's stuff was just an accidental acquisition, and it has nothing to do with that Oakland! Maybe Oakland just stole their ideas!

[What's that idiot upstairs?! Auckland knows all the magic patterns that the Percy family used, but they don't. Who learned from whom and how could they not see it?]

[Stupid +1]

[Stupid +2]

[Stupid +3]

The author has something to say: Because of the chaos on Jinjiang these past two days, there are so few comments...〒▽〒I'm crying and begging for comments. If there are 100 comments, I'll get the second update...嘤嘤嘤

【Happy Little Theater】——Gold Coins Falling

The three old men rolled into a ball, and Mother Hall grabbed the general's ear and took him away!

Joey was taken away by his elder brother to wash up!

Only Oakland and Hall are left!

Hall: Ouch!

——I want to take a bath and have a massage!

Auckland: It’s not good to take a shower too often!

Then he lifted the skin on the back of his neck, dusted it off, and wiped his four big paws!
