readx;? In the afternoon, the sun is always abundant. www.biquge.info Although August 7 is August 7th, from an astronomical point of view, autumn has begun, and the long summer days have also converged a lot. But the weather is still hot, and the noisy cicadas have no intention of compromising with the sky.

Sam sits in a chair that is not very expensive, but tasteful, with sleek curves that embellish the original discordant parts, armrests, legs, and backrests in a single arc. There is no ornate carving decoration, simplicity and practicality are well reflected in the design, the curve does not affect the function, and the shape avoids artificiality everywhere. It can be said that this is a chair that all rich people do not want to own because it is not expensive enough.

Donnie Fuller entertains Sam like any other guest who once sat in this chair. For some reason, Donnie felt that saying "no" was the best option at this time. That's right, send him away without glancing at anything he handed him and tell him: I'll think about it. That's it.

His expression was very hesitant, like a standing ice sculpture, slightly discordant in the hot house. Sometimes one glance at Sam can almost hear him sighing why Sam would throw the hot potato into his hand.

"If you think someone like you, you can understand. Sam said, and Donnie seemed to be touched by something.

Reason tells Donnie not to meddle, but his eyes can't stop and he flips through the papers Sam handed him.

Page after page of names made the ice sculpture tremble, and pieces peeled off from it one by one. The documents are all filled with the names of the imperial capital judges, a total of 62 characters, arranged in alphabetical order, and the detailed charges are listed on several large pages.

Donnie put down the file and picked up the black tea at just the right temperature, and the cups and saucers collided with each other with a rapid clanging sound, "You want me to accuse more than half of the judges in the imperial capital?"

"No, sir. Sam said, "More than that, a new bill was passed by parliament and approved by the king. It's called the "Organized Crime Targeting Act", and it's full of officialdom, but it's not small. ”

"What does that mean. Donnie took a sip of black tea and said.

"This means that we can use this bill to get rid of all the criminals in one fell swoop. Any individual who has an interest in the accused person will be detained pending trial. Sam threw out an even heavier document and said, "It's going to be a big trial." ”

"And you want me to be a judge?" Downey shuddered, "you must be crazy." ”

"Yes, sir. Maybe none of us in Pendragon are normal, one is trying to sacrifice an entire city, the other has murdered his father, and the last one is now killing himself. ”

Donnie's throat moved, and he said, "Where did you get the evidence? Only the victim can make accusations out of thin air, and even the highest magistrate other than the king, that is, you, cannot accuse the judiciary out of thin air." ”

"I arrested Johnny Vaolet on charges of obstruction of justice, and he was very cooperative with our investigation. Sam said.

"Why do you think I'm going to be the ......," Downey angrily searched for words, "a bunch of self-righteous clowns threw themselves a boring funeral because of their egotism?" ”

"Counting you, I'm not alone. Sam said, "I heard you grew up in the country?"

"Yes, sir. The village of Lorestey is not far from the emperor. ”

"I think the countryside must be a place that is indifferent to profit, but it's much better than the imperial capital's mercenary. It's all my conjecture, can you help me?" Sam said.

"Yes, my lord. Downey said: "Countrymen, they do attach importance to morality. ”

"I think so...... Tell me Donnie, you came to the imperial capital to study law and become a judge. Is it because you believe that justice will be done in court?"

"Yes, my lord. ”

"Now do you get your wish?"

"Unfortunately, this is far from what I wanted. ”

"How does it make you feel that all the hope is shattered by reality?" said Sam.

"It's hard to say, my lord. It's been a long time, a lot has happened, and I don't feel much anymore. Downey said.

"No, you feel it strongly. Sam said, "You are afraid, afraid of the sins you have sworn to judge by a righteous judgment, of the things that pour cold water on you when you are in high spirits." But you see, there are shadows all around the light, but wherever the light goes, the shadows disappear there. But look at you, a high judge who was supposed to punish sin, and now he is afraid of sin. It's like a light, a shadow of fear!"

"You don't know what you're talking about!" Donnie said angrily, trying to convince Sam to give up such a dangerous move, "They don't just have power, they have money. If there's anything in this city that money can't do, it's to crawl the dead out of their graves. What's so strange about the beggar's king having more than half of the judges? He also has all the killers, thugs, and mobs in the city, and they can get the king to use the army at his command. ”

"So you also know how good he is, that's why we have to get rid of him. Sam said.

"Why?" Downey said with a headache, "Why the hell are you so stubborn?" ”

"You want to know why?" said Sam, "because we have the conviction that justice and government are the leaders of this country, and not swayed by some ruffian." We fought and killed, and the land was repeatedly stained with blood because we wanted to fight for our ideals. I don't want all these empires of heroes and sages to be in the hands of a bunch of fucking fools with only gold in their heads, you know? It's war, but it's not the play of street fights. It is a hero against the vulgar, righteous against evil. Sam said indignantly to Downey, "In this war, we are alone, we are weak. So, can you/him/mom give me the court in half a month, and scold at the noses of those hooligans like me!"

Donnie was dumbfounded, and for a long time he motioned for the maid to bring him his pipe, and carefully stuffed it himself. The maid handed over the fire, took a few sips, spat out a puff of white smoke, and said, "In my days as a judge, I have summed up a truth. Don't look at what you shouldn't see, don't listen to what you shouldn't hear, don't do what you shouldn't do. It was with this golden rule that I became a senior judge...... Now, I finally remember why I wanted to be a judge in the first place. ”

"So you agreed?"

"August 25th? I have a lot of time to familiarize myself with the facts of the case, and maybe I can think of a court opening speech on the stage. Go and get busy with something else, Righteous Knight. I think you still have a lot to do. ”
