Chapter 037 - Say You're Not Guilty You're Really Not Guilty, But ......
Op. cant
It is undeniable that the people in the world who can make excuses and shirk responsibility are children, and children who have been children for I don't know how many years will naturally shirk their responsibilities more, and determining whether a person is an adult is not how old he is, how many people he has slept with, or whether he is the parent of another 'child'. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info just to see if the person is really 'grown up' and willing to take on the so-called 'responsibility'.
- Lu Yuhang
The court trials of this world are very simple. Someone sues you, and then one or more prosecutors will collect evidence of the defendant's guilt or innocence, and then file a lawsuit, which will be refuted by the parties and defenders.
If the jury and the judge find that the defendant is guilty, they will sentence him.
In this world, there is no such profession as a lawyer, the prosecutor is the sole responsibility, and the defender is generally the responsibility of the defendant's relatives, friends or himself.
In the Senate-style courtroom, we can see the democratic enlightenment consciousness of this world, wearing special demonic handcuffs, I stand in the center of the courtroom with my defender, and the judge, prosecutor, and plaintiff sit opposite from each other at a distance.
And now—
Because my case is a vicious case of a very large nature, there are many plaintiffs in the first place, and even many of them are members of the jury. It's funny, sue me and be a member of the jury, if you nod your head and pass that I'm not guilty, isn't that a slap in the face?
However, the court of this world has an advantage, that is, there is a large delusional spirit in the court, which is linked to the magic array of the entire room. Of course, the real delusional Ling is a small word, but the hand is an artifact. And this delusional Ling is a large, immovable ordinary version. Therefore, perjury is not possible...... You don't have to swear to the Bible or anything, but it's just beautiful, and there are polygraphs on the earth, but it still can't avoid some unjust, false and wrongful convictions......
First of all, as long as what you say is not a lie, then the delusion will not ring, and human language is so interesting, just like 'meaning meaning', 'a little meaning' can only be understood but not spoken, or many times, out of context can make the whole event completely different, and out of context often does not fall within the scope of lying.
"Yuhangni, don't be nervous. Rest assured, I'm here."
"Ah~ just because you're here......
Ah Zhen said this to me, whose whole body was stiff and could breathe, trying to reassure me.
- That's right.
Standing beside me is my defender, this guy of mine who is recognized as my master!
How did it turn out like this? If this cute lady is by his side, according to his character of being as dead and reasonable as ever, and loves to be in the limelight regardless of the occasion, wouldn't it mean that my plan to defect will evolve into a duel with Ah Zhen and finally be trampled to death by the gorgeous head-on? It is undeniable that Ah Zhen, who has high defense and high sensitivity and is completely crushed by other attributes except intelligence, is really powerful. It's the kind of unreasonable force that oppresses people.,The so-called any conspiracy and trickery in front of the power you feel is a scum.,In order to keep things from getting worse.,So—
"Anyway, can I get a different defender?"
"Huh~!!"
After I finished complaining, before Ah Zhen could react, he said to Senna, who was sitting in the seat of the prosecutor who pleaded not guilty to me, who was looking at me with a cold gaze.
"I'm so sorry. No, as a suspect, you don't have the right to choose your defender, who will only appear in court if the defender wants to defend you. You should be grateful for that."
"It's okay Yuhang, and us. With my intellect, I will defend those defendants until they cry."
Locke, who sat behind me, made such a reliable statement, because there seemed to be more than one defender. So they all came.
"Don't worry, Ah Lu, the situation will never evolve to the point where it cannot be saved, and I have already found a way to help you solve it. …… Well, specifically,...... Anyway, I'll tell you later. You're not wrong at all about this incident."
Pete, who was sitting to Locke's left, followed suit. What hole cards do you seem...... Anyway, you are a noble young master who is ignorant of the world, you think I don't know you~!
Be honest! Who is your dad here?
I still laughed at Pete's words, and on the other hand—
"Lord Yuhang, come on, we believe in you."
is also my defender, and he clenched his fist to me in an instant, this look is really praised, I really want to kiss it hard~ And her follower Ban Lan also did the same and nodded. I don't know if they're the kind of cheerleaders they are, what they're ordering. Anyway, Lan is fan is instantaneous position, she is like this, so it's good to ignore it. And then—
"Brother, don't worry. This is not a big problem at all, that is, it is a formality, those noble lords will spare their lives, as long as the Holy Son supports you, all problems will be solved."
"Yuhang, in fact, I always feel sorry for you, maybe because of my many complaints, your prosecutor seems to have misunderstood something, but it should be something unrelated to the case~."
Chiss gave me a thumbs up, and Taylor's words made me frown, and Lynn gave me a proud turn of the way I looked. She is getting more and more comfortable with the double ponytail hairstyle.
…… But—
"Anyway, leave it to Uncle Ben! Now as a Son, what I say is very convincing! Actually, Yuhangni, you can leave it to me with complete confidence!"
That's right, the problem is with this guy. As for the rest of the people, I can't say that I'm at ease, but I'm not too worried.
"Listen, Zhen. I'll ask you, I'll buy the frosted red crab for you to eat. Quitting the ranks of defenders yourself......
"What stupid are you talking about? If Yuhang is sentenced to prison or death, he won't even be able to buy crabs for me to eat. Rest assured, I'm the one who knows the job of a defense lawyer the most. Yuhang also likes to play electric, right? Have you ever heard a lot of people play "You turn referee" and "Gun Bun argument"? I've played it all~."
"Well, I'll understand just by listening to your answer. I'm begging you, how far your thoughts are, you can get as far as you want~."
In response to my strong request, Ah Zhen just turned his head away unhappily.
This bastard thing————————! I just want to be in the limelight~! Although I also think it's really handsome to slap the table and shout 'I'm against it'...... But this is a show-stealing~! And this is reality, you're done opposing, but there's no option to jump out and let you choose~!!
At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked like a chief justice picked up a mallet and knocked it on the table.
"Silence! Now the trial of the defendant suspected of committing the crime of subversion of the state, Lu Yuhang! The plaintiffs are the Duke of Alexey, the Duke of Barnes, and the Duke of Aldapu........................
As the judge called out, an obese middle-aged man stood up. Then a tall, thin man with a gloomy face stood up, then a man with a rather tall shoulders ......, and then a hairless, shiny smiling tiger on top...... A stout middle-aged handsome man or something......
These individuals are suing my noble lords...... There are too many people to list them all.
The so-called [duke], [marquis], [uncle], [son], [male], except for the three grand dukes, even the marquis or something that usually comes out alone and can scare people to death feels like a little shrimp...... By the way, in the entire continent, there are only four dukes in the four major powers of the human kingdom. Now there are three people present in person...... The standard of the trial is not high......
And at this time, the Duke of Aldup has been glaring at me now, as if he was looking at my worth. And Duke Barnes had a straight face, crossed his hands and whispered something to the old man next to him who looked like a butler, and at the same time his eyes always seemed to be around me, and at this time he was pouting and sweeping over Ah Zhen, while the last dead fat Duke Alexei was staring at the three people in my crystal palace with a lustful and sticky gaze. It's not that I'm boasting, the quality of our Crystal Palace is definitely first-class~. But this is obviously regardless of the occasion, regardless of public and private, which really lowers my overall evaluation of the duke's level~.
"Ah, na, that huge uncle stared at us and stared at it, and it made me feel some kind of evil aura. I really want to go over and poke him blind~."
Recently, Lynn has become more and more violent, is it considered that those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to monks lose their hair? She could be heard complaining in a whisper.
"Please, don't make jokes like this, it's going to get you into more trouble...... Should I say, has he been staring at Lynn's chest since just now??"
Well, my family started to look at my chest and feel inferior as I spoke.
"Sure, he's watching, and he's been watching it for a long time. In the words of your hometown, Lord Instant, this fat pig is definitely a giant star."
Rarely, Lan looked at his chest and then nodded as if satisfied...... What the hell are you nodding~~ It is undeniable that you are also very promising......
"Hey, your husband is going to prison, although he is a scumbag, can you be quiet, is it so none of my business, can I say that things like like are gathered?!"
Senna was speechless and tried to normalize the atmosphere in the defense bench, but her words were definitely challenging the bottom limit of my family's Crystal Palace, such as Lynn directly blowing up the meow......
I saw her retort loudly as if she was scratching with her teeth:
"What husband? People are still ~~!!"
"Silence! Quiet!! Defendant, please take care of your family, and if there is a next time, you will be charged with a contempt of court."
The middle-aged man of the chief justice picked up the gavel and slammed it on the table several times.
Then I saw Lynn turn into an ostrich under my playful gaze, and her whole body was huddled in a ball. …… Lying gun, you say? Hawkers, I'm used to it anyway.
However, at this time, because Lynne shrunk, Duke Alexei also set his unscrupulous gaze on Senna, who was in better shape than Lynn. This naturally makes Senna, who has become the prey, look very unnatural now......
"Lynne, she's right......
I could vaguely hear her grumbling in a low voice. Can I complain about what the present world newspaper is?
By the way, Duke Alexei is also the lord of the land where the novice village of Selos Bell is located at this time.
Anyway, the city lord of Therosbell seems to be here too~, the guy who originally felt high, of course, the city lord level, at most a viscount, Ding Potian is an earl, in this group of bigwigs, the marquis can't be counted for a while, and the earl and viscount are just marginal people at the bottom, if it weren't for the fact that the territory was managed by others, he might not even be qualified to attend. It's really a 'gathering of heroes'~, but I don't have time to pay attention to anything else, because the gavel fell on the table again.
"Silence! The trial is now officially opened. Well, prosecutors, please step forward! Open the Delusional Ling, so telling lies in court will be exposed immediately, so please keep this in mind before you speak."
The judge swung the gavel again at the same time as the declaration, and Senna stood up with the prosecutor on the other side.
"So, I'm going to read the indictment...... The accused, Lu Yuhang, joined the rest of the adventurers in attacking the Mobile Fortress Nabiim during its attack. Finally, he instructed all the people to return to the mobile fortress, and according to the Coalition Government's regulations on the control of weapons in large fortresses, those who approached the troubled city with their weapons were ordered to pay full responsibility, and the damage caused to the victim's castle was incurred. The victim, Lord Alexe, is responsible for all the losses of the city of Therosbell, the territory, and the defendant should be responsible! Since there were zero casualties in this case, the defendant was prosecuted on the charge of retrieving the state through the internal mediation of Lord Barnes, Lord Aldapu and others, because the defendant's status as a slave was investigated and he was unable to compensate for the huge amount of money owed. I hope that the application will be paid by his lord Son Scroll Masan...... If the Son of God refuses to pay the compensation, the economic loss caused by the defendant alone will be enough to shake the country. Therefore, the prosecution requested that the defendant should be charged with the crime of subversion. Our lawsuit has been completed......"
The opposing prosecutor finished reading out the lawsuit. And everyone's eyes fell on Ah Zhen.
"I'm against it!"
It happened at the same time that the prosecution finished reading.
Ah Zhen, who was beside me, stepped forward, raised a hand, and shouted loudly. This also made the Duke of Aldup, who had been staring at me like an animal, smile playfully, and then he looked at the Duke Barnes beside him with a smile. And Barnes looked at him. What exactly did the two parties play, about Ah Zhen's refusal or agreement to pay the bet...... But—
「…… You're just trying to say, 'I'm against it,' right? Did you enjoy it??"
"Enjoyable! Yu Hangni, you can try it too!"
Looking at Ah Zhen's excited face, can I say that he is really not what you think? Anyway, I was going to confess my sins and then defect now, but now there is a kind of ...... This idiot, I really want to slap him to death! But according to my numerical attributes, I probably can't break the defense...... The chances aren't great, so let's wait......
Ah Zhen looked as if he was genuinely satisfied, or he had no idea what he had refused! When the judge saw this, he said:
"Since the defendant's owner refuses to pay compensation, then next, I will give the floor to the prosecution prosecutor of the defense. Statement, then!"
"Thank you, Your Excellency, there are two reasons why I want to refute the prosecution, first, the Mobile Fortress Nabiim has plagued the continent for thousands of years, and the alchemy technology and golem-making technology it covers are all lost crafts, and the value of its natural calamity-level combat power itself is beyond doubt. But just like this, the cadre Beiruhald, who was able to defeat the Demon King Army, and the crusade against Nabiim, were all because of the activity of the team led by the defendant. Although the defendant's private life is more worrying, he has made a lot of contributions to the whole continent ¥%......%&......※......&%%¥............"
At the judge's urging, Senna spoke freely in the center of the courtroom. is worthy of being an A-level prosecutor who has studied under the S-class grand referee, and her general starting point is a cause and effect, emphasizing that if we don't crusade against Nabiim, then this city will still be destroyed by Nabiim, not to mention a Nabiim who has been blown to pieces and a commander who can crusade against Nabiim's team, which is more important......
It is said that someone has publicly stated how handsome he was when dealing with Beiruhald. Emphasize how resourceful I am in dealing with Mobile Fortress Nabiim. That's a bit of a shame...... Looking back suddenly, did I turn out that I was so powerful? Or that the praise of merit heard from other people's mouths is different......
On the way, the judge naturally kept asking me if I was doing what the prosecutor said, and at the same time stared at the bell of delusion of the polygraph several times, and I naturally accepted all the orders that I would not deny my merits, and the Ling of delusion naturally did not ring.
Senna's words are not exaggerated, and it can be said that there is no hypocrisy. Although it feels a bit similar to the brushwork of Spring and Autumn ......
"Very, very well, I understand the defense's arguments very well. Well, the prosecutor of the prosecution. Should the prosecution of subversion be withdrawn? Please file an objection."
The judge looked at me with a worried face, and in a cold sweat urged the prosecutor opposite to speak, so the prosecutor opposite looked at several grand dukes...... Duke Barnes gestured to him calmly. And after Duke Aldapu saw Duke Barnes's gesture, he let out a helpless wry smile, and then nodded to the prosecutor of the prosecution, and in the end, as a direct victim, Duke Alexei finally withdrew his gaze from Senna, stood up and said-
"Mr. Judge, as the first victim, I would like to apply to speak before answering you."
Without the judge's permission, the knight beside him walked up to him and dropped a piece of paper, while he took a one-sided eye and picked up the manuscript as if he were about to read it.
At this time—
"Agree to the prosecution's request to speak, Duke Alexei, please speak."
The judge said this, but at this time, it was Duke Alexei who looked at the manuscript and did not speak directly for a long time, and finally saw him put down the manuscript with a frown, and said-
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but I originally wanted to present some of the defendants' bad records, and this testimony should be enough to show the defendant's character to conclude that he subverted the state...... For example, the defendant will use the skill "DrainTouch" that only the undead can use, put his companions in cages as bait, usurp the rights of the team captain, etc., but I just chewed through the records in the manuscript carefully, and found that all the testimony is far-fetched in the face of the defendant's merits, but this document mentions that the defendant had a large debt, but quickly paid it off and recently bought a private mansion. It can be said to be a model of promising youth. I think that all of you, including the contemptible people, have to admit the competence and merits of the accused. However, merit and demerit cannot be offset, and the defense has repeatedly emphasized the merits of others, and this practice is obviously not in line with the impartiality of the law, and it is a matter of course to repay debts. …… Sorry, maybe I'm a bit of a sneak peek when I say that. Let's put it this way, if a natural disaster passes through the border, I believe that the people and I will only be able to knock out our teeth and swallow it in our stomachs if we suffer any losses, but the nature of this matter is completely different and it is man-made. It doesn't even have anything to do with whether the defendant was intentional or not, because the responsibility is obviously to violate the United Nations weapons control regulations, and the defendant who drove the mobile fortress Nabiim to the city has no casualties, but just a matter of paying some money. It doesn't have to be so complicated, the fact that Nabiim is the bounty chief, and the defendant is the hero who crusaded against the bounty chief, doesn't mean that the defendant doesn't have to pay compensation, right? Just like it's impossible for us not to reward the hero who has defeated the bounty head, such as a huge prize of up to five billion. But it's like the royal family also costs money to buy things, but you don't take money. It is now felt that the defendant himself is in a position to compensate this small amount. But then again, because it's a hero, even if you don't compensate, I'm sure everyone is just as happy as I am, right? Hehehe...... That's it, that's it."
The fat pig threw the manuscript in his hand and sat down with a smile, just when I felt worthy of being a grand duke, and none of them were fuel-efficient lamps.
"—that's not it!"
This voice full of confidence was unexpected, or in the process of cleaning, and this was from Ah Zhen.
I didn't expect this guy to be at such a critical moment again......
「…… Ah~really~, you just want to talk about this line, right?"
"Ahh Don't~~"
I grabbed Ah Zhen, used the bear child's killer electric light drill, and squeezed his temples hard.
Bastard, this damn idiot————! The momentum of the middle two who was about to release the declaration of defection was interrupted again~! Beast, sure enough, "mercy is not in charge of the army, love is not in charge, righteousness is not financial management, and kindness is not an official" Ah~Ahahah~ Thinking of the victims who are still displaced now, I feel guilty and say that I am really too kind......
Having said that, why didn't I have such a quarrel with Ah Zhen this time, why didn't the judge knock on the table and shout at me for a charge of contempt of court??
And at this time, it seems that someone doesn't want to continue to make trouble with us anymore-
"By the way, I forgot to say that. Incidentally, the contemptible people, like the other archdukes, also withdrew their claims against the defendants." Alexey, the fat pig who has become a blockbuster, said elegantly.
"Good! Since the defendants have withdrawn their claims, according to this view, this seat now pronounces the verdict, the defendant, Lu Yuhang. I'm determined that you're not guilty of a crime—"
At the moment when the judge was about to give his verdict.
"I'm sorry, excuse me, but I would like to add to the accused: you are not innocent, but just because you are a hero, we adults who have 'a little spare money' are more than willing to wipe your ass."
Fat pig Alexei said such a mending knife. This is to run on me with those ordinary victims who 'have no spare money', and at this time, the judge's verdict has also come down.
I saw the judge clear his throat. I'm also hehe, the so-called contempt of court...... Forget it, didn't I just count as a beneficiary of this unspoken rule? In short, this is a place to show strength~.
「…… Defendant, Lu Yuhang. In light of your misdeeds that led to the destruction of the town...... I found the defendant guilty, but because the prosecution withdrew the claim—"
Hey!?
"———— sentenced, compulsory labor reform. Until order is restored to the town."
Boom! The judge dropped the final blow.
"Wait! It's so weird, what the hell is this compulsory labor reform——————! No, wait, wait a minute! What is such a hasty judgment?"
"Please be cautious in what the defendant says and does! If you are not satisfied with the judgment, you can apply for an appeal. Leave the court!"
In this way, I accepted the so-called trial of thunder and rain, and it was neither up nor down, and Ah Zhendao was quite cool, and the others seemed very happy to varying degrees, and the defection I had planned or something became a black history that I could not talk about...... Or a passable joke, but when I came out of the ornate courtroom and stood on the broken streets of Therosbell, and saw the ragged but busy people, who were still smiling and saluting like me, the culprit, I was filled with the feeling of a little powerless. I always want to reach out and grab something, but it seems to pass between my fingers like a mirror, and at this moment-
The three archdukes, led a large group of nobles to come over in response. Naturally, the leader is the fat pig Alexei of the so-called friendship of the landlords.
