Chapter 52: Giving up Halfway Again

With John Milton's support, Professor Lomax's past privacy was turned over one by one.

It has been proven that Professor Lomax uses the knowledge of psychology to deceive people, and there is a tendency to develop psychology into crab feet.

Moreover, in the case of Horford's shooting of Marianne, she has direct evidence of the mastermind behind it.

There are many denominations in the United States, and there are thousands of illegal denominations, and this kind of crab legs, which affects social stability, is often more criticized.

When Professor Lomax was convicted of this crime, Kevin gained even more sympathy.

Kevin Romans has always been the star prosecutor of the small town, he came from a poor background but is self-reliant, and he has always had a very positive and motivated image from school to work.

His wife was killed, which was the reason for his revenge, and now he has found conclusive evidence, and public opinion is on Kevin's side.

In particular, the prosecutor's office, the police department, and the courtroom are all on Kevin's side, and the specially selected jury is sympathetic to Kevin.

So, when March came, when the trial began, the case was one-sided from the start.

Zhou Zhen was in prison and did not know how John Milton had managed to deal with Professor Lomax's family, who had shown no signs of hostility during the trial.

Zhou Zhen was indicted for intentional homicide, which is a third-degree murder below first-degree murder and second-degree murder.

During the trial, Zhou Zhen's defense of himself also became a hot topic in the news.

He and his assistant defense lawyer, Christa Bella, also became a pair of golden boys and girls, which were reported by many media outlets.

The case was heard quickly, and the first trial took only two days.

In the face of conclusive evidence, Zhou Zhen could not be exonerated of the crime of homicide, but the law was forgiving, and he was sentenced to seven years in prison for intentional homicide, without bail for three years.

Professor Lomax's family did not pursue the case, in fact, after Professor Lomax was involved with Crab Feet, they also wanted the case to be concluded as soon as possible.

Zhou Zhen was sentenced to seven years, and the procuratorate and the police agreed to the trial, and the victim did not protest, and the case was closed.

Zhou Zhen also changed the prison cell and was transferred from the detention center to the prison area, and it was also a light punishment area of less than ten years.

Unlike a detention facility, all inmates are obligated to work when they enter the prison.

The more than 10,000 inmates of the Florida State Penitentiary, with the exception of a very small number of vicious criminals, had to work in various factories.

Zhou Zhen had already made a name for himself in the detention center, and after he was transferred to the prison area, except for the boatmen's gang, everyone else treated him with courtesy.

In the prison system, Zhou Zhen received great preferential treatment, and he directly became one of the administrators of the prison library, which was the lightest job in the prison.

His cell was replaced by a double cell, and his roommate, former University of Chicago professor Otethy, was sentenced to life in prison for financial crimes.

This is an old man who is almost sixty years old, and there is no threat.

Otesi is also a librarian and a part-time investment advisor to the prison guards, so he is protected by the prison guards.

Zhou Zhen is like him, but part-time as a legal adviser to the prison guards.

He is even tougher than Ottesi's backstage, because in addition to his relationship with the public prosecutor, he is still under the care of Justice John Milton.

Zhou Zhen is very satisfied with his current situation, and he has finally built a circulatory system for himself that can protect him.

Whether it is God or Satan, you must follow the rules and cannot directly put your will above the will of humans.

If they want to act within the rules, they can't break the rules.

Zhou Zhen is now using the rules to protect himself, even if it is Satan, he will have to wait for the three-year period before he can be released on bail.

So, during these three years, Satan will only protect him.

He only needs to settle with John Milton to enjoy all the conveniences he brings.

And he has a year and five months to leave this world.

In prison, apart from the restriction of his freedom, he lived a happy life.

The freedom that was restricted, but it became his protection.

In addition to the prison guards, there are also many prisoners who ask him for legal advice, and he almost always refuses, so the other prisoners also have a good impression of him.

Except for the boatmen......

In Tallahassee, there are three major forces, the Mexican gang is the most powerful, and most of the people in Florida are Hispanic white, or have Latin ancestry.

Here, Spanish is the first language and English is the second language.

However, the Mexican gang is relatively scattered and the people are not aligned.

In addition to the Mexican Gang, the most powerful are the Lumberjack Gang and the Boatmen's Gang, both of which have two organizational structures, the industry association and the gangster.

Logging and shipping have always been traditional industries here, and these two organizations existed long before they joined the arms of the United States.

Phil and Blake, who were injured by Zhou Zhen, belong to the core members of the Boatmen's Gang.

However, Zhou Zhen is not afraid of them, because in the closed environment of the prison, no matter how powerful they are, they can't cover the sky with one hand.

The Lumberjacks are their sworn enemies, and although the two have joined forces to deal with the Mexican Gang, there are many contradictions.

Zhou Zhen likes this Romance of the Three Kingdoms very much, because there are too many places to use.

There are people behind Zhou Zhen, who have money in his hands and good skills, especially under the direct protection of the prison system.

Unless the boatmen die and the net is broken, there is no way to take his life.

Although he lost his freedom, this time was the easiest time for Zhou Zhen.

Entering this world, he has always been depressed and gloomy, and in order to be a good person, he even forces himself to follow the character that belongs to Kevin, not his own.

This distortion made him very uncomfortable, but now, he didn't have to suppress himself anymore.

The boxing ring in the prison became his favorite venue, and in just a few months, he beat all the invincible opponents in the prison.

His strength is not the greatest, and his skills are not the best, but his abilities are balanced in all aspects, especially his leg skills.

Even though he has been injured a few times, however, in this prison, he has become a veritable number one master.

The Boatmen Gang also confessed for the time being, they were unwilling to completely offend Kevin, who had a good relationship with the police, for the sake of the two low-level members.

Zhou Zhen likes his current life very much, except that there is no woman, everything is so suitable for him.

In the dead of night, Zhou Zhen, who was asleep, suddenly had two prompts in his mind, and then he was forcibly taken back to the system space.

Being taken to the system space in his sleep, Zhou Zhen was still a little dazed, at this time, he didn't know whether he was Kevin Romez or Zhou Zhen.

"The host is forced to return due to completing the task ahead of schedule. "Devil's Advocate" trials the world, the host is excellent, and the subversion is flat. ”

Zhou Zhen was confused for a while, and finally realized that he had returned to the system space, but he still did not react, calmly watching the system performance.

"Reward one: two energy points.

Reward 2: The devil's advocate ability.

Reward 3: Combat skills are increased by one level to three levels. ”

Zhou Zhen then asked, "How much difference is the fighting skills of a third-rate master from my current ability?" ”

"The host's current fighting skills are at the professional level and the third-rate master level is at the top level in the real world."

"What is the Devil's Advocate Bewitchment Ability?"

"The ability to bewitch includes observing words and emotions and spiritual infection, which can make it easier to distinguish the target's emotions and make inducing guidance."

Zhou Zhen thought for a while and said, "I choose two." ”

His fighting ability is already at the professional level, and the real world doesn't need too much force.

In contrast, the spiritual influence of the ability to bewitch is more effective in the real world.

Everyone will have a good impression of you and will be willing to listen to you, and you will be able to distinguish the other person's thoughts more easily, which is much more useful than being a little more skilled.

His head was swollen with pain, this swelling pain was far beyond Zhou Zhen's expectations, and his face became a little distorted in this pain.

However, he often fights and is often injured in prison, and his ability to endure pain is much stronger than that of ordinary people.

Soon, the pain gradually dissipated, and he felt that his six senses seemed to be much more sensitive.

Just before he could experience it, a feeling of dizziness came, and he was sent back to the real world.

Zhou Zhen opened his eyes, the green island located in the east is now six o'clock in the morning, the sun is about to come out, and the sky is bright.

Zhou Zhen got up and came to the two-meter-high glass window, looking at the courtyard outside and the sea in the distance through the window, there was a sense of strangeness.

It was his home, but he felt strange.

Now he doesn't know if he is Jiang Hao, Kevin Romez, or Zhou Zhen.

Although reason told him that he was Zhou Zhen, Jiang Hao and Kevin Romez were all identities in the mission world, but now he is still influenced by Kevin Romez and Jiang Hao.

He even feels that Kevin Romes has a bigger influence on him now.

Grandma had already gotten up and dragged a hose to wash the dust off the granite floor in the yard, watering the two flower beds in the yard by the way.

The sun is about to leap out of the sea, and the eastern sky is already dyed with golden reddish, and the scenery is very enchanting.

Zhou Zhen took a deep breath and sat on the big sofa, his legs crossed on the windowsill, enjoying the beautiful sunrise.

But in his heart, he was boiling and entangled.

Through various temptations, he has understood that the system does have ghosts.

He has decided not to cooperate with the system anymore, anyway, he has obtained Jiang Hao's knowledge and Satan's ability to bewitch, and he will not lose.

Especially the rejuvenation pill obtained from the system, if it can cure his father's rheumatism, it is blood gain.

He is no longer at a loss, so stop being greedy.

And he can already feel the side effects of the system.

Jiang Hao's knowledge and experience, this is his own choice, the life experience and experience of Cyrus and Kevin Romez, he did not choose, but it is also affecting his character.

It was terrifying, and he suspected that if he went to a few more worlds, he would definitely become a psychopath.

And, through his cognition, he believes that the system will not be able to eliminate this side effect either.

So, it's time to let it go!
