"You're wise, Leader. It's not good for us to directly kill people, and... having those people do it is more intimidating. We really need unity."
"But... what's the reason?" Heize Lin asked curiously.
"If we want to put him to death, we must find an unforgivable charge," Qingshui Cangjie said sharply. "Intentional troublemaking, instigating defection."
"That's a good charge, but before that, we need to silence him so he doesn't have a chance to argue." Heize Lin added, "Cut off his tongue, chop off his hand, just make sure he doesn't die."
"Very cautious, but this matter can't be handled by just the two of us. It's everyone's business. We need to deal with it publicly, logically, and share the risk." Qingshui Cangjie was cunning, well aware that everyone had to be bound together, and no one could escape on their own.
"Heize understands!" Heize Lin bowed respectfully again.
