Capítulo 2045: Chapter 1580: Before the Assembly
Bai Xiaosheng, accompanied by Wei Xuelian and Lin Weiwei, walked towards the entrance of the Hunter Academy building under the guidance of the staff.
The building was built on a high platform, imposing and grand, with a significant difference in height from the ground, and many steps leading up.
Bai Xiaosheng ascended the steps, his gaze commanding, accompanied by beautiful won, with staff leading the way in front and a group of senior lawyers following behind.
All who arrived early stepped aside, watching intently.
Those who understood knew Bai Xiaosheng was here for a joint investigation; those who didn’t might have thought he was the day’s most distinguished guest.
“FUCK!” Landvo couldn’t help but curse under his breath when he saw this scene, angrily saying to Catherine beside him, “Such a grand entrance, is he here to walk the red carpet?!”
In his frustration, Landvo noticed even his own wife Catherine was gazing in admiration.
“To be so composed and steady in the face of such circumstances! What poise!” Catherine praised.
“Which side are you on?!” snapped Landvo.
Catherine quickly realized her slip, smiling to comfort Landvo.
The couple also headed towards the building, but the level of attention they received was clearly less compared to Bai Xiaosheng.
As Landvo walked, he felt a fire burning in his heart.
Originally, he ca to see Bai Xiaosheng’s disgrace and to find so amusent, but now he couldn’t find any joy!
There was even a feeling of being overshadowed!
Bai Xiaosheng, enjoy your arrogance while you can. Soon, you won’t be smiling! Landvo cursed silently, gnashing his teeth.
Escorted by a throng, Bai Xiaosheng entered the building and, under the staff’s guidance, reached the location of the joint investigation.
It was a large auditorium, which either intentionally or naturally resembled a courtroom.
The individual platform for the person being investigated bore a stark resemblance to the fenced-in dock for defendants in a court of law.
On the backdrop behind the main platform, the imposing emblem of the Twelve Countries Police Alliance, bearing the words “Sword and Shield Unite,” was displayed.
The eting had yet to start, and the row of seats on the main platform was still empty.
However, many people had already occupied the seats below.
The entrance of Bai Xiaosheng and his entourage imdiately drew everyone’s attention. Seeing Bai Xiaosheng, the people couldn’t help but whisper and point.
This past week, Bai Xiaosheng’s fa had almost surpassed that of a national leader; everyone wanted to see what kind of person he was!
After all, the photos in the dia didn’t make as direct an impression, and seeing him in person was quite dissimilar.
Once inside, the vast number of lawyers behind Bai Xiaosheng was directed to a special seating area, and the other attendants were led to the audience seats, leaving only Wei Xuelian and Lin Weiwei by Bai Xiaosheng’s side.
Their status was “relatives,” allowing them to stay close to Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng led them straight to the front center of the first row of the venue and sat down.
From Bai Xiaosheng’s seating as the center, on the left were seats for observers, similar to a jury box in a Western courtroom, and on the right were dignitaries of notable status who couldn’t sit on the platform yet were still of high rank.
The seats Bai Xiaosheng chose were undoubtedly the best in the venue, aside from those on the platform. Their presence naturally drew whispering and criticism.
However, a few staff mbers just glanced at Bai Xiaosheng and then looked away, as if it was none of their concern.
It seed the eting hadn’t started, so Bai Xiaosheng could sit wherever he pleased, and they didn’t want to stir up any trouble.
After all, Bai Xiaosheng was reputed to have significant connections with the Qin Family, and he was “involved in nurous serious cris.” If true, it indicated he possessed considerable dark power. No one wanted to provoke such potential trouble.
Seeing the staff leave it alone, others were even more reluctant to speak out.
“Xiaosheng, is it really alright for us to sit here?” Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but lower her voice and whisper.
This was, after all, a joint investigation eting concerning Bai Xiaosheng, and his ostentatious behavior could undoubtedly give ammunition to those with ulterior motives.
Wei Xuelian also looked at Bai Xiaosheng, her eyes showing the sa concern.
“It’s okay, just sit tight. Today, I am the main character.” Bai Xiaosheng reassured the two won with a smile.
Seeing Bai Xiaosheng so confident and in control, Lin Weiwei felt she couldn’t say much more.
“Let’s just sit here!” Wei Xuelian smiled.
Her man deserved the best seat!
To Wei Xuelian, her man sitting on the main platform would be perfectly justified!
Landvo and Catherine entered the hall, directed to their seats.
Halfway there, Landvo saw Bai Xiaosheng sitting firmly in the most central seat, accompanied by two won, chatting leisurely, appearing entirely at ease.
In contrast, the seats indicated for Landvo and his wife were on the left edge, marginalized positions.
Landvo’s anger flared.
Why?!
He had a higher rank than Bai Xiaosheng within the Zhenbei Group, and he was one of the top rchants in South Arica!
Why should he sit in the corner while Bai Xiaosheng, here for investigation and questioning as a suspect, got the pri seat?!
“What does he an by this?” Landvo asked the staff mber beside him, “Did you arrange this for him?”
The staff mber shrugged indifferently, muttering, “Maybe that gentleman wanted to sit there himself.”
