"A poisoned fish alone cannot convict the Gao Family." The Observatory colleague sighed, "You've messed things up."
"Eating this untreated Fish Demon, the whole family will turn into demons." The young man in white said calmly, "I understand, in your eyes, only when a life is involved can the Gao Family be held accountable... but I can't do it."
"..." The man in black robe fell silent.
"This family is innocent." The young man in white said, "If we let this family die just to convict the Gao Family, what's the difference between our actions and the Gao Family's? In the end, it's all about costing lives to secure our future!"
