Chapter 422 Bureau of Justice
Wolfwood didn't care what his High Priest brother was muttering to himself!
He smiled and took his small ceramic bottle from Lin Baiyan's hand, then hugged it tightly to his chest.
Lin Baiyan patted the cub's head with amusement, "Well done!"
Wolfwood, emboldened by the praise, puffed out his chest and exclaimed, "Of course!"
He's the leader of the cubs! It's no wonder he's been studying so hard lately; he's determined to impress his priest brother!
After the awards ceremony was over, Wolfwood stepped down from the stage and was immediately surrounded by a group of cubs, who chattered excitedly, "Brother Wood, you're so amazing!"
"Yeah, yeah, you're awesome, boss!"
"That's right, as expected of our boss!"
Wolfwood, flattered by his underlings, became even more smug. He proudly raised his chin and said, "Don't you know who I am?!"
Lang Yu stood not far away, watching Lang Mu's smug expression. He pouted, "What's he so proud of? I'll definitely surpass him next time!"
Mao Xia looked at her friend with amusement, "You were so close! You were great too!"
Wolf Rain ranked twenty-third this time. There weren't many participants. Wolf Cloud, Lin Baiyan, and Yang Ye didn't participate. Cat Feather participated because Lin Baiyan had other plans for him and wanted to give him a suitable excuse.
This match is the perfect opportunity.
After all the prizes had been awarded, Lin Baiyan stood on the altar, looking at the clansmen below who were still beaming with excitement. "From today onwards, a new department will be established in the City of Ten Thousand Beasts: the Bureau of Justice."
"After the establishment of the Bureau of Justice, all members of the Beast City must strictly abide by the laws of the Beasts. Once the Bureau of Justice verifies that any beastman has committed illegal or disorderly conduct, the Bureau of Justice will punish the offender according to the law."
Lin Baiyan's face was serious as his eyes swept over the clansmen below the altar. "You have all studied for so long and should know the rules of the Law of Ten Thousand Beasts. I hope you all know the ruthlessness of the law. No matter who it is, if someone commits a crime, they will be punished accordingly."
"Whether it's an ordinary orc or myself, the high priest, anyone who makes a mistake must pay the price! I also hope that everyone can supervise each other."
Upon hearing this, the beastmen below the altar exchanged bewildered glances. Did the high priest mean he wouldn't even spare himself?
Their eyes darted around each other a few times, their reverence for the Law of Beasts growing even stronger. If even the High Priest was punished for his mistakes, then ordinary beastmen like them should always keep the Law of Beasts in mind.
At this moment, Lin Baiyan spoke up again on the altar, "The Director of the Bureau of Justice is divided into three. Mao Yu will be in charge of internal trials, and Xiong Zhan and Niu Lie will be the other two directors in charge of the city's security. The patrol teams will be incorporated into the Bureau of Justice. From today onwards, the Bureau of Justice will be independent of the several companies and will be solely responsible for the law."
Cat Feather was the first place winner in this judicial competition, which was also Lin Baiyan's arrangement for him. In the blink of an eye, the half-grown cub who followed them to the north was almost an adult.
He had witnessed Mao Yu's hard work over the years, and now that she was capable of handling things on her own, he believed that Mao Yu would definitely become a very qualified judge.
Before this, Maoyu already knew Lin Baiyan's plans. Since his High Priest brother trusted him so much, he was confident that he could manage the Bureau of Justice well and do his job well.
As for Xiong Zhan, it was a pleasant surprise. Since the Giant Bear Tribe merged into the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, most of their people were placed in the Weaving Bureau, while the rest were incorporated into the training camp, mainly to do some basic patrol tasks.
Ordinary orcs are fine, but Xiong Zhan is the chieftain of the Giant Bear Tribe. Lin Baiyan couldn't just leave him to gather dust. He had been thinking about what position to give Xiong Zhan, and finally found the best one today.
In this way, the Giant Bear Tribe can finally feel at ease and integrate into the City of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Upon hearing Lin Baiyan's summons, the three orcs stepped forward from the crowd and knelt at the very front of the altar. "High Priest, rest assured, we will do our utmost to manage the security of the Bureau of Justice and the City of Ten Thousand Beasts."
When Xiong Zhi saw Xiong Zhan kneeling at the front of the crowd, a sense of relief appeared in his eyes. He knew that his partner was not a powerless male beastman; gems always shine.
Lin Baiyan raised his hand solemnly, "Get up."
The group exchanged glances, stood up, and retreated back into the crowd.
After taking this opportunity to announce the matter of the Bureau of Justice, the daily work life in the City of Beasts returned to normal. The appearance of this Law of Beasts was like a huge stone hitting the surface of a lake, causing a huge splash. After the brief splash, the lake returned to calm.
However, the beastmen of Ten Thousand Beasts City have already left deep marks in their hearts.
……
Winter snow is always unpredictable. When Lin Baiyan got up this morning, the sky outside was foggy. Sure enough, right after breakfast, it started to snow lightly again.
However, there's no need to worry. Snow and ice won't stop the beastmen from working in the City of Ten Thousand Beasts. There are cleaners sweeping snow and clearing ice in the city at all times to ensure that the main roads are unobstructed.
Lin Baiyan had just finished reviewing the ledgers. It was rare for him to finish work so early today; he had almost finished reviewing the ledgers by the time it was morning. He glanced at the sky outside, opened the door, put his hands in his pockets, and walked onto the main road in the City of Ten Thousand Beasts.
He looked up at the falling snowflakes, his feet never stopping, but his thoughts drifted further and further away. What was going on? Why was there still no news of Lang Cang today?
I should have known better than to bring Lang Cang a few birds back then. I hope something bad happened to them.
With her partner away, Lin Baiyan simply couldn't stop worrying.
At this moment, a loud commotion startled Lin Baiyan, whose thoughts were drifting in the sky.
"Wow, Director, you're amazing!"
