Chapter 1343 Better Kill the Wrong One than Let It Go!

Bandit's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations.

Originally, Zell thought that Bandit would make all kinds of sophistry to excuse his brother, so he didn't say anything at the beginning, and directly played the video projection. These videos and other materials are solid evidence. As the videos and various materials are played, the brothers' excuses will become weaker and weaker.

In this case, I don't need to spend much effort to make Bandit have nothing to say, and then severely punish Hester.

Unexpectedly, Bandit didn't take an unusual path when he first came up. As soon as the first video evidence was released, he dragged Hester to plead guilty directly. Moreover, Bandit's plea directly tied himself and Hester together.

His words were also very clear, if you want to kill my brother, kill me too.

Zell rubbed his temples with a headache, and most of the elders also frowned. Only the deputy patriarch and the three elders showed no joy or sorrow on their faces. The four of them stood firmly behind Bandit. There were many things they knew a long time ago, and they were the ones who suppressed them.

"Bandit, this matter has nothing to do with you. You don't know what Hester did. Even if you have lax supervision, you don't have to be punished with him." Deputy chief Aubrey After a long silence, he finally spoke. He didn't want Bandit, whom he had single-handedly raised, to be implicated in this incident.

Hester's actions have indeed seriously damaged the family's reputation and face, which has broken the bottom line of the family's tolerance. Aubrey intends to abandon Hester and try his best to keep Bandit. And Bandit really has nothing to do with what Hester did, so it's easy to pick it out.

"Bandit, the deputy chief is right. We know that you love your younger brother, but he is an adult and should be responsible for his mistakes. It is not a good thing for him that you favor him every time." The elders who supported Bandit also spoke to support the deputy chief.

Bandit was silent for a while, then spoke again.

"The patriarch, the deputy patriarch, and the elders. Everyone in the clan knows that Hester and I's parents died early, and I brought him up since he was a child. I am his elder brother, and it can also be said that he is his parents. .And I often practice in closed doors, or go out to explore the ruins of the secret realm, and neglect to discipline him, making him what he is now."

"I also know that Hester has made a lot of mistakes. The elders in the family cared about my face and helped me to hide and suppress them. Here, I must say to the elders about Hester's past bad behavior. Sorry."

Having said that, Bandit took Hester to kowtow a few more times. Then he raised his head and continued talking.

"I know Hester made an unforgivable mistake this time,

Otherwise, the two patriarchs and the elders would not be alarmed. I even know that if it is handled according to the family rules, it is not too much for Hester to be sentenced to death this time. "

"Although I know this, I also have selfish intentions. He is my only family member. I can't just watch him be punished. Therefore, I choose to be punished together with him. Whether it is imprisoned forever in death row or abolished cultivation, Expulsion from the family, or the death penalty... I am willing to accept it with him, without any complaints!"

"You idiot..." Deputy Chief Aubrey shook his head and sighed, he knew that Bandit had made up his mind and could not be changed. "Patriarch, this child has a stubborn temper. It is better to deal with this matter leniently. If we forcibly execute Hester, this child will probably not live alone..."

Zell frowned. Bandit was a junior after all, and he didn't have much contact with him on weekdays. All I know is that he is amazingly talented, has an aloof personality, and is extremely protective of his younger brother. Apart from that, he has no other shortcomings. But he didn't expect him to be so stubborn.

Hester committed a serious crime. Under normal circumstances, according to the family rules, it is indeed one of the three treatment methods that Bandit just mentioned, either permanent imprisonment, the abolition of cultivation base and expulsion from the ethnic group, or the death penalty.

But if Hester is dealt with in any of these three ways, Bandit will probably punish himself. In this case, the most outstanding evildoer in the clan for hundreds of epochs will be abolished.

This is something that makes Zell very headache.

"Patriarch, there will be an exchange match at the end of the year... why don't we deal with it after the exchange match." A veteran came over suddenly.

"Exchange competition..." Zell frowned even tighter.

The so-called exchange competition is organized by the twelve top aristocratic families. Once every hundred years, hundreds of aristocratic family forces select the younger generation under the true king to participate in competitive events, and sometimes the imperial clan will also participate. In the past, the results of the Robb family were very poor, and they had to ask for foreign aid from the extraordinary list to barely keep their position at the bottom of the top family, and because of this they have been ridiculed all the time.

This generation has finally figured out a Bandit. Originally, the Robb family expected him to get good grades, but they didn't expect such a thing to happen temporarily. Now, there is less than half a year left before this exchange competition.

After a long time, Zell finally made a decision.

"In less than half a year, it's the exchange match. The punishment for this incident will be dealt with after the exchange match. Hester, let me spare you for the past six months. If you dare to act recklessly and make humiliating For the name of the family, I will kill you with my own hands!"

"Yes..." Hester replied tremblingly.

"Okay, you two don't need to kneel, we have other things to discuss here." Zell waved his hand.

Bandit pulled Hester out of the conference room respectfully.

In the conference hall, Zell was silent for a moment, and the sadness between his brows did not dissipate.

"You have also received this email. The sender was able to collect so much information and hack into our smart watches. It is obviously not an ordinary hacker. Fortunately, the hacker did not expose the matter for the time being, but it does not mean that He will not expose this matter. Once the matter is exposed, the consequences will be disastrous, and I, the Robb family, may find it difficult to gain a foothold in the family in the future."

The deputy patriarch Aubrey's face was also not very good-looking, "These materials have only been sent to 14 of us so far. The younger generation of the family, the stewards and deacons at all levels have not received it. I just don't know what the sender's purpose is. "

"There are two possibilities, one is extortion, and the other is to intervene because you can't see it, and there is no unclean purpose. However, in this day and age, the possibility of the latter is very small." A veteran said.

"No matter what the purpose is, find the sender, kill the sender, and clean up the traces, so that there will be no future troubles forever. Otherwise, there will always be something in the hands of that person." The elder Nien stood firmly behind Bandit supporter.

Without him, the deputy alone would not have been enough to give Bandit the influence he has today.

"Grand Elder, your solution can indeed prevent future troubles. But what if we can't find the sender? My smart watch is almost the highest level of authority in the entire chaotic universe, or was it easily seized by the other party? Control. There are probably only a handful of hackers of this level in the entire chaotic universe. Looking for the sender in turn is almost like finding a needle in a haystack." Patriarch Zell didn't think this method would work.

"It's better to kill the wrong one than to let it go! Kill all the top 50, no, top 100 hackers in the Chaos Great Universe! Suppress this matter completely!" Nien's eyes were full of murderous intent.

"It's too..." Zell obviously thinks this method is not advisable.

"Do you have any other better solution?! Or do you wait for the other party to expose the matter, and the whole family will no longer have a foothold in the aristocratic family, and then clean up the mess?!" Grand Elder Nin glared at Zell In the past, "Those who achieve great things don't care about small things. For the sake of the family, some things can't be controlled right or wrong!"

"Then do as the elder said..." Zell was silent for a long time, his face was full of helplessness, his whole body limp on the armchair, and he nodded weakly. (To be continued.)
