Chapter 1408: Court
After speaking, Machu pushed the rickshaw driver, and the rickshaw driver took advantage of the situation and ran into the distance, running a few steps before confirming a little slowly: "Go to the University of Atlanta and say that you are Machu of Spell Salt, right?"
"Spell linguistics, Machu!"
"Oh, I made a note of it. The rickshaw driver strode up and disappeared into the far side of the street.
Seeing the rickshaw driver leave, Machu reached out and stopped another rickshaw, beckoned Donna and himself to sit on, and said to the dark-skinned rickshaw driver, "Go to the magistrate's court on Eleventh Street, hurry!"
"The fare ......?"
"Timing receiving. ”
"Okay. The rickshaw driver took out the hourglass and hung it on the side of the rickshaw and ran hard.
......
It was close to dusk in the afternoon.
In Atlanta, Eleventh Avenue in the heart of the city, a five-story stone building stands here that is home to the Magistrate's Court.
The first, second, and third floors of the five-story stone building are responsible for the trial of public security incidents, and the audience is allowed to observe the trial of public security incidents during the trial.
At present, the main trial hall on the first floor has been crowded with onlookers, and the criminal suspects have also entered and are waiting for the arrival of the trial judge. The scene looked a little chaotic, and several personnel responsible for maintaining order frowned from time to time, considering whether it was necessary to scold a few times and control the scene.
At this time, Maqiu, who had arrived in a rickshaw, was crowded in the crowd, close to Donna, and was pointing to various places in the trial hall to introduce Donna.
"Do you see those people, they are the court sheriffs and court sheriffs, and their temper and strength are not small. If a bystander gets too excited, they will simply throw it out, saying that it is to maintain the dignity of the courtroom. So, when we can see it, we will watch it obediently, and don't make a loud noise. ”
Machu reminded earnestly.
"Hmm. Donna nodded with a small face, indicating that she understood.
After a pause, Machu pointed to the corner and continued: "By the way, look there, I saw the person who was dressed similarly to the court sheriff, but had a seat, it was the court sheriff, and I heard that they were all powerful wizards.
If during the trial, the suspect is not convinced and wants to violently resist the law, or someone directly rushes into the magistrate's court to snatch the suspect, the other party will take action. It is said that since the establishment of the magistrate's court, the other party has made a total of three moves, once two years ago and two times a year ago, but unfortunately...... I was busy at school and didn't come over, so I didn't see it. ”
As he spoke, Machu was full of regret.
"By the way, there's that place. Machu pointed again, "This is the entrance of the magistrate, and when the magistrate enters, it will mean that the trial has officially begun." I've heard that the magistrate in charge of the trial this time is Adam Field, known as the Iron Mask, who is very serious and unsentimental. The criminal suspect who is being tried, if he obeys nothing, otherwise there will be a good show. ”
"Really?"
"Of course, we'll find out later. ”
"Oh. ”
......
While Machu was introducing Donna non-stop, Adam Field, the so-called "Iron Mask" magistrate, was in the break room.
He was dressed in a black judge's robe, maintaining his usual cold expression, his emerald green eyes narrowed slightly, and with his somewhat rough hands, he looked through the case records that his subordinates had sorted out not long ago, and watched the internal images of the surveillance crystal ball that had just been sent.
By the time he had seen it all, he had a general idea of the trial, and he was about to walk out of the lounge and into the courtroom.
As a result, as soon as he walked out of the door of the lounge, he was stopped, and he was stopped by a man who was also wearing a black judge's robe, with some differences, not two golden stripes on his chest, but four golden stripes.
According to sarin, one stripe represents a first-level judge, two stripes represent a second-level judge, and three stripes represent a third-level judge. As for the four stripes, it represents the supreme judge, and there is only one person in the entire city of Atlanta. Usually he doesn't appear in the magistrate's court on Eleventh Avenue, and more time is busy at the headquarters of the Ministry of Law.
Looking at the person standing in front of him, Adam was slightly stunned, his eyes fell on the other party's silver-white hair, and he said in surprise: "Teacher...... Why are you here?"
"Adam, you can't guess?" said the silver-haired old man with a slight smile.
"Is it related to the case in the courtroom, which I will try in a moment?" Yate frowned slightly, "Isn't it a very ordinary case, both criminal suspects illegally use extraordinary power in public places, I have tried dozens of similar cases, what's wrong?"
"But you should know that one of the suspects is from Char, and they represent the local forces of the Soma Alliance to arrest the prisoner they identify as the other suspect. The old man said in a low voice.
"This kind of situation is not special, in this magistrate's court, there have been at least ten trials, and I was responsible for two of them. Adam said, still not understanding the old man's thoughts.
"Do you remember when was the last time a similar case was tried?" asked the old man.
"This ......" Adam was slightly stunned, thought for a moment, and replied aloud, "It seems to be seven months ago, which is a bit long." ”
"As you can see, it's been a bit long, and that's the problem. The old man said, "The previous ten trials of similar cases had caused extreme dissatisfaction among the Alliance, and then I heard that it was the Deputy Lord Jasmine, who took a thousand Spark Demon Knights out of the city for a long time, and I don't know what I did before it was calmed down.
Since then, the alliance has stopped coming to Salin to arrest people indiscriminately, and if they really want to arrest them, they will also hand over notes to the efficiency department. I thought that the situation would continue like this, but who knows, today broke this tacit understanding again. In your opinion, it may be just an ordinary case, but in the eyes of some big people, it may be a signal. ”
Only then did Adam come to his senses, pondered for a few seconds, and asked, "So, what is going to be done in this trial, and what outcome do some of the people above want?
"No, neither leniency nor strictness, all of them are subject to the law of farshaline. The old man said seriously, "This time, you can go to the trial in full accordance with the regulations, and you don't need to think about the rest." ”
"Teacher, why did you come to me? Isn't this an extra move, it makes me feel like a dwarf prince in a play, bending over through the tunnels. ”
"You're still thinking too little. The old man shook his head, looked at Adam and said, "I didn't come to you just to talk nonsense with you, but to tell you the truth of the matter." Let it be clear to you that this trial is not simple, and you must adhere to the principle of judgment. But you stick to your principles, others don't necessarily stick to them, so I, along with the rest of you, are here to help you not be influenced by the other side. Got it?"
"Uh......"
