Doomsday Code

Chapter 496: Holmes's Anger

If it were usual, Holmes would never be so anxious, but just now Huidun scared Jimmy crazy, and at the same time, he killed the city guard of the North Gate in front of everyone, and wanted to kill his family.

So Holmes was really afraid that Huidun would go crazy and kill Berkeley directly.

However, Huidun ignored Holmes' words. He looked at the old Berkeley and said:

"Your performance was a success. If you had been more honest, I might not have cared about you, an ant. But you insisted on jumping out and helping your master at this time. Don't blame me for killing you and your clan."

"Your Highness is mistaken."

Holmes interrupted Huidun at this time.

However, Huidun turned around and looked at him and said:

"Don't worry, I won't kill this old thief directly."

As he spoke, Huidun pulled out a document of accusation from his pocket and said:

"You can send someone to investigate right now according to what I wrote above. I'll show you the true face of this honest and upright man who has never formed a clique for personal gain."

Then he looked at Berkeley, patted his old face and said:

"You think you can get away with this by using an alias and transferring assets? It's enough to fool these fools, but unfortunately, your tricks are useless against me."

Huidun runs a bank, so he has a good grasp of hidden assets, especially with the help of the Stowe Chamber of Commerce, the largest trading company in the country. The details and sources of Berkeley's assets are bound to be thoroughly investigated.

It was at this time that Berkeley really felt fear. Didn't he know how much money he had?

He is the most prominent member of the family behind him, and no matter how you look at it, it is impossible for his family to accumulate so much wealth.

But at this time he still wanted to struggle:

"Your Highness, don't you think this is unfair? My children, nephews, relatives, and friends have gained wealth, so should this be blamed on me, saying that I embezzled it?"

However, at this time, Huidun stood up and looked at him with a look of rubbish and said:

“I originally thought you were a rival, but I didn’t expect you to be so stupid.

And did I ever tell you that this was embezzled by you? If you embezzled, is Holmes a fool to reuse you? "

"The church has given you quite a lot of assets, right? You've also leaked a lot of information about Holmes to the church."

When Huidun said this, the Executive Yuan was in an uproar. Berkeley also pointed at Huidun's nose like a madman and said:

"You are slandering me. I have never had any connection with the church."

When Huidun heard this, he sneered and said:

"Look at how weak your excuse is.

I did some checking, and it's a strange coincidence that your assets were all received before and after the State Council dealt with the church's illegal and disciplinary violations.

And every time you received money, those churches were able to successfully withdraw from the operation. Don’t you think this is a coincidence?"

Huidun has made a complete showdown. The church wants to interfere in the internal affairs of the kingdom, which is absolutely forbidden.

This time, Berkeley, including his children and nephews, is finished.

At this time, the person with the ugliest expression was not Berkeley but Homeis. Berkeley was promoted by him. Although his official position was not high, many core matters of his prime minister's party were open to him.

As mentioned before, the official faction headed by the prime minister in the court is at odds with the church.

Because the churches scattered across the country not only preach the gospel but also shoulder the duties of supervisory officials.

But now Huidun told him that there was a traitor in his group, which was why his several counterattacks against the church had failed.

How could this not make Holmes angry?

At this time, Holmes said in a deep voice:

"Someone remove Berkeley's official uniform. After investigating, hang Berkeley and his entire family."

This was the first time that Holmes had spoken as the prime minister since the last elf case. It also allowed many people with ulterior motives to see that he was still the prime minister second only to the emperor, and that he could still exterminate an entire clan if he wanted to.

Huidun patted Berkeley's old face and said:

"If you behave yourself, I won't play this card with you. After all, I can use some money and tricks to turn you over in the future, and use you to deal with Holmes and the church.

But you were so stubborn that you had to jump out and arrange those guys' assassination plan, so don't blame me for burying your entire family with you."

Huidun's voice was not very loud when he spoke, but everyone present could hear and understand it clearly.

Holmes on the side was also very embarrassed. He said in front of him that he wanted to plant a traitor around him. Isn't this too much of a disrespect for him as the prime minister?

But at this time, Holmes would certainly not offend Huidun. Who knows what he could do with the resources in his hands when he goes crazy.

When Berkeley heard Huidun's words, he immediately vomited blood. He didn't expect that the image he had worked so hard to maintain for decades would collapse in an instant.

According to Huidun's words, he is a greedy and spineless person.

But who knew that he worked diligently in Berkeley for decades, but just because he was not from a wealthy family, he had no chance of promotion.

Even though he joined Holmes and became his confidant, Berkeley's name was still not on the list of promotions.

To use a famous saying of a corrupt official, he was just afraid of being poor. The church, this giant, came to bribe him with benefits. He had never seen so much money in his life. He was intimidated and surrendered immediately.

After dealing with Berkeley, Huidun stood up and looked around. After looking at him, the officials of the Executive Yuan immediately looked away.

Because they were also afraid that Huidun would point at them again, and then they and the families behind them would be finished.

Huidun couldn't help but sneer when he saw them dodging. Chen Cheng was right. These guys were just useless people who were riding on the achievements of their ancestors.

What's the point of keeping these garbage after he ascends the throne?

"Your Highness, do you have anything else to do? If not, please leave."

At this time, Holmes looked very unhappy and started to drive people away.

He was not angry about Huidun's previous words, but because Berkeley, whom he promoted, turned out to be a traitor, and betrayed him for a small profit.

Why can't this idiot see the long term? He failed in this life, but that doesn't mean his descendants won't be able to.

But because of his stupidity, not only did he waste all the years of cultivation of Holmes, but he also made a fool of himself.

His confidant turned out to be a traitor.
