With permission, Winsari left her seat and went to the witness stand box: “Witness, you just said that you and the victim were attacked by a beast, right?”
“Yes.” Felina did not look at her and just looked ahead.
“Could you please describe the appearance of the beast?”
“It was an enormous wolf, with reddish-brown hair. It was about three meters long and about this height.” Felina made a gesture.
What she described was obviously Angelica when she turned into wolf form.
By making up a beast to replace werewolf Angelica, was she trying to cover up the truth that Angelica was a werewolf?
Wait a minute. Was it… Angelica who asked her to give the testimony?
I suddenly understood the matter.
“Is this really the size of a wolf?” Winsari narrowed her eyes suspiciously, “moreover, the forest is under the jurisdiction of the central academy, and the surrounding area is residential. There has never been a visual report about it, how could such a beast suddenly appear?”
Felina took a long breath, lazily turned her head, and looked at Winsari, “but the fact is, it appeared. What’s the use of asking me this question? Ask the wolf.”
This prickly attitude angered Winsari: “watch your tone, witness. This is a court!”
“There she goes again…” Rolalana, who was standing next to the cage, smiled bitterly.
Felina, who revealed her bad girl prickly nature, and Winsari, who was a prosecutor, opposed each other, tit for tat with words.
“You two, the important matter is not the argument, but whether the testimony is true.” the presiding judge dropped the gavel in time.
“Well, then, let’s talk about the testimony! Since the witness insisted that she and the victim were attacked by a beast and not by the orc, why was the victim not wearing any clothes when she was found? Does the beast know to strip people before eating?” winsari asked loudly.
“Obviously not. Does your majesty even need to doubt this?” Felin glanced at her scornfully.
“You!” Winsari was furious.
“Witness, do not make pointless provocations! I said that the argument is not important!” the pressing judge slammed the gavel to warn Felina, “you have the obligation to explain your testimony, otherwise we have the right to question the authenticity of your testimony.”
Felina was silent for a while, and she said: “there’s nothing special to explain. I took off the clothes on the victim.”
“What!” prosecutor Winsari’s eyes almost bulged out.
The judges were also stunned.
Of course, I was also stunned. Only Rolanna was suppressing her laugh.
“Why? Is there a problem?” Felina asked the prosecutor lazily.
“Nonsense, then how do you explain that bottle of love potion?” the prosecutor slammed the witness stand box angrily, “we also found some tools at the scene—”
“A bag with mouth plug rope and something like that. I brought that too.” Felina seems to have lost interest in the prosecutor’s inquiry. As if no one was there, she smoothed her long hair and pinched a handful of hair to check the hair quality.
This answer instantly dispelled the prosecutor’s arrogance in half. She was surprised for a long time before she came back to her senses, and again asked in an aggressive voice: “you said those are your things? What did you want to do with those things?”
Felina didn’t answer directly, instead raised her hand and looked at the trial bench, “the presiding judge, it is a matter of personal privacy, may I choose not to answer it?”
“Answering the question of privacy depends on whether your actions involve a crime or not.” the presiding judge replied.
“Did my actions involve a crime?” Felina looked surprised and glanced this way.
It was not towards me, but Rolanna, who was restraining her laugh.
I say this shouldn’t be…
“If both are women, there will no charge of r*pe or molestation, but if the other party is forced to strip and bind against her will, then the crime of personal insult will be charged. However, the crime of personal insult is different from r*ping a young girl. Whether the guilty or not entirely depends on the victim’s will. As long as the victim is over 50 years old and has a normal mind and basic judgment ability. It is fine.”
“Then it doesn’t matter. She did it voluntarily.” Felina breathed a sigh of relief.
Wasn’t she telling a lie with clear eyes?
However, judging from her daringness and confidence, Angelica was correct to ask her to testify for me.
“Voluntarily?” the presiding judge was surprised.
“If you don’t believe me, you can ask her yourself. Why, is there a problem?”
“It’s not that… although the new laws established after the abyss war are tolerant of the homosexual relationship between women,” the presiding judge’s expression was a little strange, “still underage partner, it is morally a little… I hope you correct it.”
“Homosexual relationship?” Felina was stunned.
This girl… did she not notice just the kind of words she said would make others think like this?
As always, her brain was not very bright….
Felina glared angrily in this direction– towards Rolanna who was standing beside the cage.
Rolanna, who had been holding back her laugh, was unable to bear anymore and let out a chuckle.
I turned to Rolanna and asked, “I want to ask, you didn’t teach her that, did you?”
“Well, I didn’t ask her to testify on your behalf, but I taught her how to deal with the prosecutor’s question. As always, this girl is easy to cheat..”
It should be expected that Felina might not have willed to do this, so she was cheated equivocally with words…
This explanation did succeed in disapproving the so-called evidence, and it ended the matter in a way that neither I nor Felina would be sentenced. However, was it really okay to cheat your own sister like this?
I stared speechless at Rolanna, who with a smug smile, waved her hand towards the witness stand box.
On the other side, Felina gritted her teeth.
