Lin Jie, a 31-year-old mobile court judge, is packing his things, as Lin Jie, who has three years of experience in mobile courts, he deeply knows that he needs to prepare a lot of things when he goes out.

The location of the mobile circuit court that needs to be visited at the township level is often not so convenient, and if you don't prepare the corresponding things, you will have to suffer.

A set of thermal underwear, two pairs of underwear for a change of clothes, and the judge's gown and accessories are packed separately in a special plastic bag. A thick reference book and a laptop. A bag of five consecutive instant noodles, a pair of plastic bowls and chopsticks, and a bag of ham sausages. Wind Oil Essence ...... Well, it shouldn't be needed in winter. There is also a portable rechargeable iron.

However, you should bring a band-aid and a small bottle of iodine and alcohol, and no one can guarantee that there will be no minor accidents on every patrol.

Lin Jie thought about it and brought an extra bag of bread, because it would take two days to go back and forth this time, although it was said that the local area would provide catering and accommodation, but sometimes it might not be as good as instant noodles and bread. The last time I went to the countryside below, I soaked in a bun of soup masters, but the child who borrowed the farmer's house stared at his instant noodles for a long time, and his saliva kept flowing.

I had no choice but to give the soaked noodles to the child. For this child, the strong aroma of the soaked soup noodles is irresistible. For many people in the city who claim to have a life, the flavor of this instant noodle is nothing more than a poor food flavor, and it is not at all as crisp and refreshing as fried bamboo shoots with wild vegetables. But for children who eat fried bamboo shoots with wild vegetables for a whole month in the spring, the aroma of instant noodles is simply delicious!

Although modern urban people respect the so-called original ecological life in the countryside, including the original ecological diet in the countryside, otherwise there would not be many variety shows that focus on the countryside.

Maybe the economically developed rural life is really good, but in a small village with only more than 500 people, the only commissary in the village sells Kang Shuaifu and Lei Bi in the poor villages, in fact, life is not so easy.

"Xiao Li, how are your things packed?" Lin Jie turned to his assistant Xiao Li and asked.

Xiao Li is a college student who just graduated from law school this year, and when he was in college, he was finally admitted to East China University of Political Science and Law. When he graduated from university, he took the national examination again and obtained the qualification of a civil servant in one go.

Xiao Li's life has been smooth for more than 20 years, but since joining the work, Xiao Li feels that his luck in life has probably run out in two fateful exams.

Although he was assigned to the judicial system of his heart as a civil servant. But the specific work assigned made Xiao Li not so satisfied.

Hearing Lin Jie's question, Xiao Li said in a voice that was not very enthusiastic or resistant: "Bring it, change your clothes." The hiking shoes I wore put in my bag and put a pair of leather shoes in my bag to wear them when the court was in session. The uniform collar led the flowers. Even the hammer was brought. ”

Xiao Li flipped through his backpack and checked his things aside, still with that attitude that was not very enthusiastic.

Lin Jie didn't see it, because he had to go out and even couldn't come back on Chinese New Year's Eve, and no one's enthusiasm would be very high.

After all, the circuit court is a chore, and anyone with a background in the justice system doesn't want to do it.

"There's a big guy to carry. "The big guy that Xiao Li said is a big country emblem placed on the table. A standard 80 cm diameter alloy die-cast national emblem, the national emblem has many small scratches on it, and it can be seen that the red paint base is mottled in some places, but it is patched by red paint.

It looks like this coat of arms has been used for many years, but it is very well maintained. The eyes are still bright, and the red and yellow are still shining.

"When is the bailiff coming?" said Xiao Li, his underlying words being that he didn't want to carry the national emblem. Because the alloy die-casting national emblem is very heavy, the weight of the national emblem with a standard diameter of 80 centimeters is about 35 catties. It's very tiring to carry this, Xiao Li feels that he is not an athlete, and he can't stand it.

"The bailiffs are not coming back. The door of the preparation room was pushed open, and Jiang Hua walked in with a smile: "Lin Jie, I haven't seen you for two years." ”

"Jiang Hua! It's been a long time. Lin Jie knew Jiang Hua, because his girlfriend Lin Xiao was Jiang Hua's good sister, and everyone had dinner together during the Chinese New Year two years ago.

Jiang Hua works in the public security system, and he works in the judicial system, so he can be regarded as half a colleague.

"Why are you here?" Lin Jie was a little surprised by Jiang Hua's arrival, so he ignored Zhang Tong who was following Jiang Hua.

"Help your two bailiffs on the shift. "Jiang Hua is telling the truth, originally she was not in the judicial system. Originally, it was very troublesome for her to come and follow Lin Jie.

However, Jiang Hua can also be regarded as the rising star of the public security system, especially the special investigation department, and now is also the Chinese New Year period, no one wants to go out at this time.

After Jiang Hua turned around several departments to coordinate, Shuangqing agreed to Jiang Hua's request. Anyway, it's not to enforce the law in Shuangqing, but to accompany the bailiff and be responsible for protecting the judge's safety by the way. So it's a relief here.

Just enough to give a holiday to the two bailiffs who were reluctant to go out at this time.

"Are you a bailiff?" Lin Jie couldn't believe what Jiang Hua said: "Don't be funny, what level are you! Be a bailiff for me, and I dare to call you?"

"No kidding, really. Lin Xiao was a little worried about you, so let me do me a favor. Anyway, it's just to accompany you on a trip, it doesn't matter. Jiang Hua shrugged: "So what is the case this time?"

"It's more troublesome, it's a case of wounding people in the village below, and the specific case is very complicated, and it can't be explained clearly for a while. The township police station can't mediate, and you also know that the small township-level police station below has no police force, and now the mood in the village where the accident occurred is very intense. The police station did not dare to forcibly take people. So I had to go to the countryside with a temporary court. ”

Lin Jie said this, and Xiao Li, who was following Lin Jie, watched his boss chatting with a beautiful policewoman, he originally wanted to introduce himself. But after glancing at the epaulette level on Jiang Hua's shoulder, he secretly stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to speak.

Since he wants to be a bailiff, Jiang Hua still has to wear his uniform, so that he is more formal.

However, Zhang Tong, who had no uniform, could only follow Jiang Hua in a Chinese stand-up collar, Xiao Li glanced at Zhang Tong, and he felt that it was better for him not to speak. It seems that the level of people here is higher than their own level, so that means ......

"Xiao Li, put the national emblem on your back, let's go. Lin Jie gave the order. Xiao Li showed an expression that was really like this.

Originally, the luggage I carried would have weighed more than a dozen pounds, and if I carried a national emblem of more than 30 pounds, I was afraid that I would exhaust myself to death! But what should I do? The official university crushed people to death, and I couldn't let Lin Jie carry it. Unless you don't want to do it in Shuangqing's judicial system anymore.

The judge helped carry the national emblem on his hand, and this matter was going to get out, and the entire judicial system of Shuangqing didn't know how much to dislike himself.

Just when Xiao Li was a little reluctant to put on the national emblem on his back, Zhang Tong picked up the strap that had been tied to the national emblem with one hand, and then carried it directly behind him.

"Alright, I'll carry it. Jiang Hua, you help me carry my luggage. Zhang Tong handed over the luggage he brought to Jiang Hua, and Jiang Hua didn't care about it. Weight is not a problem, the main thing is to carry luggage on the back of a national emblem, people will be very uncomfortable.

"Let's go, we're on our way. Try to be able to get to the place tonight. Lin Jie waved his hand, and everyone went to the parking lot.

When the circuit court goes to the countryside to work, the court will naturally send a car. It was a nine-seater Iveco, and it was quite spacious inside. Taking advantage of the rush to go, Jiang Hua also introduced Zhang Tong to Lin Jie, and the two said hello and knew each other.

"Let's take a break in the car. Lin Jie said to everyone very experienced.

"Hmm, can't you get there by car?" Jiang Hua was a little surprised.

"No, I can't. Our Sichuan, Chongqing and Guizhou places are mountainous, and many villages are in the mountains, and the roads cannot be built at all, so they can only be repaired to the foot of the mountains or to some large villages. The village can only climb the mountain. However, in recent years, it has been much better, and the national village-to-village project is still very useful, and many villages that were originally closed to traffic now have at least one one-way lane. ”

"It's a lot easier, because when I first started working a few years ago, there were no roads in some villages below Shuangqing at that time. The lane was only built to the township level, so we had to take a car to the town, and then borrow a donkey from the town to carry luggage, and the people and the donkey slowly walked the mountain road back and forth in the village. It's much better now, at least 20 kilometers less on foot, and 20 kilometers on the mountain trail takes at least five hours with your luggage on your back. ”

Lin Jie said it very easily, with a smile on his face, but Xiao Li, who was sitting in the back seat, trembled. He felt fortunate that he didn't want to do his current job, and he didn't want to do it in the early years.

Zhang Tong looked at Lin Jie and asked with some curiosity: "Judge Lin, have you been a circuit court for a long time?"

"Well, from graduation to now. Lin Jie nodded: "At that time, I was an assistant, and after the old judge retired, I stepped up and became the president of the court directly." I should be the youngest presiding judge of Quan Shuangqing. Lin Jie's last sentence was a bit self-deprecating, but it was also very realistic.

At the age of 31, he became a judge in a municipality directly under the central government like Shuangqing, which can be said to be young and promising in the judicial system of the whole country.

But the actual situation is very complicated, Xiao Li muttered in his heart: Isn't it because no one wants to do this, if you become the president of a grassroots court in the urban area, you will see if you can grab the position.

"The Circuit Court is very happy. Zhang Tong didn't know much about the circuit court, he only remembered that he was organized by the school to watch a movie called "Court on Horseback" many years ago.

Seriously, at that time, Zhang Tong almost fell asleep watching this movie, and this kind of movie didn't appeal to him at all. It is not as good as the American blockbuster "The Outlaw" that other schools organize students to watch.

However, after listening to the conversation between Lin Xiao and Jiang Hua yesterday, he found the "Court on Horseback" he watched on the Internet from memory, and it was still not so good-looking and exciting. There are no ups and downs in the plot and shocking reversals, everything is so bland, but this time Zhang Tong finished reading it, and he didn't feel sleepy, nor did he feel that time was difficult.

After the car drove to a large village of more than 2,000 people, it stopped, and the driver said to Lin Jie: "Judge Lin, I can't walk the rest of the way, it's up to you." ”

"Thankfully. Lin Jie nodded at the driver. He tied the national emblem to his luggage before Zhang Tong, and then carried it on his shoulders.

Zhang Tong glanced at Jiang Hua, and Jiang Hua said that he would go with Lin Jie.

However, Lin Jie, who was carrying the national emblem and luggage, suddenly felt a lightness on his shoulders, as if the heavy national emblem on his back had no weight in an instant.

Lin Jie quickly knew what was going on, and he turned his head to thank Jiang Hua: "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome. ”

The Shuangqing area, or the entire Yunnan-Guizhou-Sichuan area, is a mountainous terrain with few flats. Jinguancheng can be called the land of abundance because of its flat terrain, which is a rare good terrain in the entire Yunnan-Guizhou-Sichuan region.

And most of the places in Yunguichuan are not so easy to walk, otherwise Li Taibai would not have lamented that it was difficult for Shu Road to go to Qingtian.

Even though the country has developed rapidly in recent years, the development of the western region has been so easy. The development of a Shuangqing has already invested a lot of money, and it cannot be said that it has completely affected all the towns and natural villages below Shuangqing. After all, Shuangqing is too big, and it is not much different from a province with a slightly smaller area.

The task of the circuit court is actually very heavy, because there are still many natural villages scattered in the mountains.

Just crossed a rope plank bridge and stepped on a somewhat slippery gravel road, Xiao Li couldn't help but complain: "Why don't those people who live in the mountains move out, they are tired every time they enter the mountains." Half a month is spent wandering around the mountains of Shuangqing, there are many snakes and mosquitoes, and when you are unlucky, you will encounter landslides. The car can't get in, and if you get injured, you can't even find a doctor. ”

Xiao Li couldn't understand why so many people still lived in mountain villages. And Lin Jie, who was carrying his luggage and the national emblem, said without looking back: "There are many reasons, subjective or objective, and various problems bind those mountain people, so that they can only live in the mountains. They want to live in Shuangqing Yuzhong District, can you buy them a house?"

"I ...... I can't afford it. I can't afford my own wedding house, and my girlfriend is having trouble with me. Half a month is floating outside. The salary and treatment are not high......" Xiao Li said weakly.

Zhang Tong followed Lin Jie with his luggage on his back, although the road was a little slippery, but there was no problem for Zhang Tong. He could easily chat with Lin Jie while walking on the mountain road: "Judge Lin, I have a question for you." ”

Say. ”

"Do you want to be a justice?"

"Of course, I'd like to be a justice of the Supreme Court if I could. Ha ha. Lin Jie laughed.

"But it's hard to be a circuit court judge. ”

"It's up to you. I want to be a justice, the kind I dreamed of. But if I were to be a circuit judge, I would. After all, someone has to do these things. Zhang Tong, do you know why there is a circuit court?" Although Lin Jie said this to Zhang Tong, his eyes looked at Xiao Li, who was happily climbing the mountain.

Zhang Tong said very cooperatively: "Why?"

"Because there are always a lot of problems to solve in this world. Where there are people, there will be contradictions, and if there are contradictions, they need to be resolved. The rule of law process in our country has been advancing, but it is still too slow. There are still many extrajudicial places in our country, and in those remote villages, people's solutions to problems may be crude and simple. For example, human trafficking, such as killing and injuring people, in those places where the power of law cannot reach, people will rely on their own ideas to solve these problems simply and rudely. ”

"There are even cases where one person breaks the law and the whole village resists the law. The old judge I followed before said that in the 80s, there was a family in the countryside of Yunnan Yunnan where three brothers were single and unmarried, so the three of them pooled their money to buy a woman from the traffickers as a daughter-in-law. ”

"When the woman's family reported the crime and the police found them, they didn't feel that they had broken the law at all. They said that they had spent money, so how could they have broken the law? Moreover, more than 200 people in the village helped stop the police car and prevent the police from taking people away. They don't know the law at all, and they only perceive the world according to their own ideas. The police can take prisoners away, but they can't take away their ignorance. ”

"The establishment of the circuit court is not simply to deal with the trivial things in the village. I know that there are many young judicial workers who feel that the circuit court takes up resources and does not solve any problems, and more often than not, they are like the mediation aunts of the neighborhood committees, and many young people who want to deal with big cases do not want to do this job. It's hard work, and there's no sense of accomplishment. ”

"But it's still very meaningful, we preach the law everywhere we go, popularize the law, so that everything has a law to follow, and let people know what to do and what not to do. I want to be a justice, but that doesn't stop me from being a circuit judge at the grassroots level. If you can't even handle trivial matters, can you really say that you have handled big cases properly in the future?"

"There are always a lot of things in this world that need to be done, and if you don't do it, if I don't do it, no one will do it. It is said that there are tall people on top of the sky when the sky falls, but there are so many tall people, maybe people are just standing on the stage and resisting. ”

Lin Jie said this, Xiao Li lowered his head and pursed his mouth and did not speak.

The mountain road was rugged and steep, and even with Jiang Hua's help in reducing gravity, the four of them still walked for more than two hours to reach their goal today: Luojia Village.

The Shuangqing Mountain Road is steep, and Zhang Tong and the four of them set off at 9 o'clock in the morning, and it took more than four hours to take a car for more than 80 kilometers. The last ten kilometers are walked by legs. If there was no Jiang Hua, the remaining ten kilometers would have taken about three hours.

From 9 o'clock in the morning to 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Tong and others ate a bread for lunch during the break. In fact, everyone has been hungry for a long time.

After coming to Luojia Village, the village party secretary had already recognized Lin Jie, and the village party secretary gave up his private person to the big house of the former village commune, where there were three empty rooms to live in, and below was a very empty living room. There is a hearth in the corner of the living room, which is where the kitchen is located.

Zhang Tong began to get busy with dinner, the food that the village can provide is not very much, mostly some vegetarian wild vegetables, very little meat, only a bacon and two eggs brought by the village party secretary. After walking so many ways, and not eating well at noon, this little thing is definitely not enough to eat.

However, Zhang Tong had prepared before he came, and bought high-calorie foods such as luncheon meat and cheese sticks.

Zhang Tong was busy with dinner, and in the upstairs room, Lin Jie took out his judge's robe and spread it on the bed, and then used a portable rechargeable iron to carefully iron the creases and hang them next to the cabinet in the room.

After the national emblem was removed and wiped clean with a white flannel cloth, Lin Jie stood on the corridor corridor on the second floor and hung the national emblem between the handrails of the corridor.

Zhang Tong, who was standing on the first floor, was just about to turn around and call everyone on the second floor to prepare for dinner, when he saw Lin Jie hanging the national emblem.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the open door, and the sunlight spreads on the national emblem and Lin Jie's body to reflect a piece of brilliance.
