"I agree with him." Other vouch.
"We agree with him." The entire crowd echoed together.
Thus, many people came together and created a pyre to say goodbye to the dead. Someone cleaned the sickle. Few people cleaned the traces of the blood and thus everything related to murder was gone.
But what the people didn't expect was for that angered fellow to submit himself to the royal guards and confess his crime. However, when the guards came for inspection they couldn't find any proof, any evidence. Not even a single person supported his confession.
Forcing guards to leave him be. Once it was just the people and the angered fellow, he got scolded furiously by the people for doing such a stupidity. Making him feel grateful and thanked everyone with tears in his eyes. After all, he wanted to do something for his family, but he had committed a crime and he wanted to get punished for it.
But these people save him. Or at least that's what he and the people of the capital thought.
