Chapter 1080: Father and Daughter (9)

After changing into a new dressing room, Loki held Helen tightly, giving her no chance to go for another snack. Once they had both changed, Loki even put on a collar.

On the way to the trial site, Loki kept turning her head to check the surroundings. She discovered that there were statues on both sides of the corridor, exactly the same as the statue of the man she had seen in the hall earlier, all wearing strange uniforms and making strange gestures.

"Oh!" Loki suddenly cried out. Instantly, Mobius and B-15, who were walking in front, assumed defensive postures. But when they turned back, they found Loki was fine, just clutching her own neck.

"What's wrong with you?" Mobius lagged two steps behind. Loki glared at Helen twice, then said to Mobius, "I'm fine, it's just that my daughter might be a little hungry. Could you find her something to eat later?"

"Uh, what does she eat? Human food? I have snacks on my desk; I'll bring her some in a bit." Mobius seemed to like children very much, using his palms to make various shapes, which made Helen giggle.

The group walked into the spacious courtroom. This courtroom was not much different from the ones Loki had seen on Earth; the lighting was dim and heavy, and the atmosphere was solemn and grave.

However, Loki did not feel nervous. For no other reason than that when she worked at the Sanctum Sanctorum, the staff there loved to brag in their spare time about how they teased the judges and lawyers in court who didn't even understand basic math. They went to court over a dozen times a year on average, and some even managed to date the judges.

Thinking of judges, Loki looked up at the woman standing in the Chief Judge's position. She had chestnut-colored skin and slightly curly black hair, looking like a person of color.

"I am Ravonna, the Chief Judge for this trial. I will conduct a fair trial regarding the time crimes you have committed... Wait!"

The Chief Judge who called herself Ravonna looked down at the documents at her side, then slowly frowned. Dissatisfied, she threw the documents aside and shouted to the side, "Mobius! What's going on? Why are the documents wrong again?! Why was Loki's file brought over?"

Mobius trotted from the window to Ravonna's side and whispered a few words to her. Loki saw that within a few seconds, Ravonna's complexion changed repeatedly, her expression quite spectacular. When she looked at Loki again, her gaze was a bit off.

After all, from what they understood so far, Loki's life story was still quite astonishing.

Although there were infinite individual universes in the multiverse, possessing infinite Lokis, there were not many female Lokis. And a female Loki who had dated Iron Man and even bore him a daughter was the only one before them.

Ravonna cleared her throat and did not announce the start of the trial, but instead looked at Loki and asked, "What about Pepper Potts in your world? Does she not have children with Iron Man?"

"She is Iron Man's girlfriend, but they don't have children," Loki answered truthfully.

"She is Iron Man's girlfriend?!" Ravonna raised her voice. Mobius and B-15, standing at the door, both looked at Loki. Loki rolled her eyes, really too lazy to explain such a complex relationship to them, and just said somewhat listlessly, "I have nothing to do with Iron Man."

The expressions of the few became even more spectacular. At this moment, Ravonna seemed to realize something. She waved her hand again and called B-15 over. B-15 took out a strange machine and scanned Helen with it, then she screamed on the spot.

After putting the machine away, she widened her eyes, leaned in, and said a few words to Ravonna and Mobius. Among them, Mobius really couldn't hold back and raised his voice, saying, "Thor's divine power?! How could she have Thor's divine power on her?!! Don't tell me she is actually..."

Ravonna patted Mobius's arm, then cleared her throat and said, "Don't misunderstand, this is all a reasonable investigation into the situation of your timeline. Thank you for your cooperation. Now, let's begin the trial..."

The three took their places, the jury entered, the guards closed the doors, and Mobius stood to the side to observe the hearing.

Ravonna first struck the gavel and said, "Order! Time criminal Loki, do you admit that you used the Time Stone multiple times to conduct unauthorized time travel, creating a large amount of redundant trash for the cosmic timeline library, failing to categorize the trash, and arbitrarily discarding hazardous waste to pollute the timeline?"

"... Ah????" Loki only uttered one syllable, then she repeated the question, "What did you just say? Why did you arrest me?"

Her very genuine reaction of confusion made Ravonna look down at the manuscript on her desk again and read Loki's charges once more.

Before she had even finished reading, Loki, as if her tail had been stepped on, almost jumped up on the spot and shouted:

"You mean, you caught me not because I pulled off some brilliant scam, tricking some powerful fool, but just because I played with the Time Stone for a while??!!"

"Watch your attitude!" Ravonna struck the desk hard with the gavel and said, "What do you mean 'played with the Time Stone for a while'? You have no idea how much impact your irresponsible behavior has had on the cosmic timeline..."

【Given the current environment, this site may close at any time. Please move to the permanently operating source-switching App as soon as possible, huanyuanapp.】

"I..." Loki was choked up, then she looked around at the environment again and said, "So, your so-called Time Variance Authority is a real 'Time Variance Authority'? Not some anti-fraud or cosmic law enforcement organization??"

Before Ravonna could speak, Loki stood there with a dark face, then brushed her hair and said, "I knew it, how could that purple-skinned bastard be stupid enough to call the police? If I get caught, could he possibly get away with it?"

"Fine, fine, I did use the Time Stone for a bit," Loki nodded and said, "But there was a reason for that. I had to save someone, save Jarvis, understand? I had to go back and learn the technology..."

"No matter what you intended to do, your actions have already endangered the cosmic timeline. The high-intensity time backtracking you performed in a short period has added too much redundant timeline data to the multiverse's timeline library, leading to storage overflow, timeline pollution..."

"A DDOS attack." Helen, whom Loki had placed on the hearing stand, poked Loki's arm and said, "Mom! You're a cosmic hacker now! That's so cool!"

Loki slapped her on the back and said through gritted teeth, "Cool what cool! You are not allowed to be a hacker! You are a Princess of Asgard!"

"So, do you admit to your crimes?" Ravonna asked.

"I did it." Loki pursed her lips, waved her hand impatiently, and said, "Sentence me quickly, I want to go to jail..."

Ravonna threw the indictment aside and said, "The attitude of admitting guilt is quite good, much better than other Lokis. Although the crimes are relatively serious, a sentence reduction is possible. 20 days of detention, go."

Loki widened her eyes, looked at her, and said, "20 days of detention?!! Are you kidding me?! I am the God of Mischief! You went to such great lengths to catch me and bring me here, just to sentence me to 20 days of detention??!!"

"Uh, these 20 days might be different from the 20 days you imagine. The flow of time is not..." Mobius started to explain, but Loki immediately interrupted him, saying:

"What nonsense are you talking about?! Do you know? If people find out that I was caught and only sentenced to 20 days, I won't be able to show my face in the universe anymore!"

"This will make me unable to hold my head up in the Sanctum Sanctorum! Those humans were all sentenced to at least 200 years!! And I, an immortal Asgardian god, was only sentenced to 20 days?! My god, you are denying everything I've done in my life!"

"You damn bugs! Completely unprofessional! No appreciation ability at all! You are practically saying I'm a typical scammer! Even a typical scammer wouldn't be sentenced to only 20 days!!"

"Contempt of court!" Ravonna struck the desk hard and said, "Add 10 more days!"

"Helen! Bite her!"

Helen "whooshed" and darted out. Next, a series of screams, curses, and over two minutes of chaos erupted in the courtroom.

The iron door "clicked" shut. Two prisoners, one big and one small, wearing prison uniforms with '2000 Years Detention' labels on their chests, wore identical smug smiles on their faces.

Mobius, with over six hundred bite marks on his suit, and Ravonna, with her hair completely disheveled and covered in fragments of the indictment, walked out of the trial site together. Mobius said, "Although she pleaded guilty, she is still a Loki. Does that set of procedures still need to be followed?"

"Do as you please," Ravonna said irritably. "Tell B-15 not to bring irrelevant personnel in again, even if she is a child!"

After speaking, she walked away quickly. Mobius, standing in place, looked at her back and whispered, "A child who bit me over six hundred times in two minutes?"

After saying this, he shook his suit, turned, and walked in the opposite direction, saying to the guard nearby, "Have the detention department bring her over... By the way, don't bring that little girl. Just find her an office, get her some snacks and toys, and let her stay by herself for a while..."

But as a result, a few minutes later, it was still Loki and Helen who arrived at Mobius's office. The guard shrugged at Mobius and said, "I couldn't separate them."

Mobius, having witnessed Helen's prowess, sighed, waved at Helen, and said, "Come here, I have something to discuss with your mother. The snacks are in the drawer. Can you stay here by yourself for a while?"

Helen first sized him up, then looked around the entire office, seemingly seeing some things that interested her. So, she jumped down from Loki, ran to Mobius's chair, sat down, and started eating the snacks from the drawer, appearing well-behaved and obedient.

On the way to another room, Loki was busy fixing her hair, which looked like a bird's nest, while re-buttoning the collar of her prison uniform that Helen had just torn open, and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her hand.

A sense of relaxation and joy, which she hadn't felt in a long time, welled up in Loki's heart. So, she said sincerely to Mobius:

"Thank you, that was a huge help."

Looking at Loki's polite smile and sincere eyes, Mobius felt that he might be dreaming. ===== CHAPTER 1081 =====
