Frederick raised his head, gently hugged his sister beside him, closed his eyes in a stirred mood, and turned his head to sniff her silver hair. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's finally a snowstorm.

He knew Ophelia was sobbing in his arms.

Filia's red hair jumped, turned to stare at the jury, and made a generous statement in no uncertain terms: "In this way, the chain of evidence is finally complete. Oppenheimer betrayed his family, hired a murderer to intercept the goods, and the truth has been sealed for 14 years, and today it is finally revealed. The testimony in court was conclusive. The plaintiff finished his questioning and hoped that the jury would reach a fair verdict. ”

Then Filia glared back, glanced fiercely at the silent auditorium, as if to scold, "Nothing to say, trolls!" and then proudly returned to the plaintiff's bench with the sound of "click" heels, bent down and hugged Ophelia, and kissed her forehead with her cheek.

"Thank you, Sister Felia. Ophelia sobbed and looked up at her with teary eyes.

"Thank you, brother. Fillia pierced bluntly, "In his heart, you are more important than anything else. He overturned the case for you before the duel, because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to overturn the case for you personally after he died in battle. ”

"Brother......" Ophelia had mixed feelings, and when she cried excitedly, the water in her head turned into tears and gradually matured.

Frederick forgot the horrors of the divine realm for a while, and devoted himself to protecting his relatives, and closed his eyes and kissed his sister's hair with relief: "From this day on, your name is Ophelia Mendelssohn, and the moonlight silver hair is your noble bloodline worth showing off, and the glory of the financial family will be passed on by you and passed on from generation to generation." Face the world bravely, Ophelia, for it always shines brightly. ”

Ferdinand tilted his head to look at the warm plaintiff's seat, indifferent and indifferent, not even the slightest expression.

Because he knew that Frederick could not win.

Justice Francis would definitely have ruled against Frederick, because of the flaws in the system. With just nine juries, Justice Francis dares to turn black and white upside down.

And in that jury, it happened that 5 capitulation members were selected.

And Ferdinand's royal lawyer team was not vegetarian. They began to discuss countermeasures three days in advance, worked all night, worked day and night, and had already made a contingency plan for Lawrence.

Then the defendant's lawyer protested solemnly and began to fight back. The documents they piled up on the defendant's desk finally came in handy, only to see the defendant's lawyer beside him to quote and talk about righteousness endlessly:

"Although the Holy See has proved Lawrence's identity, it is necessary for me to remind the Honorable Court that Lawrence's status is extremely special. Orphaned in the Prussian War, he fled south to the outskirts of Wiener to become a hunter and grow up to join the notorious vulture mercenary group. This person has committed many crimes and has countless criminal records. According to verifiable records, Lawrence was arrested and imprisoned in the fall of 1693 on charges of smuggling firearms, and was later released due to lack of evidence. In July '96, Lawrence was arrested for street fighting, absconded after being released on bail, and has never been brought to justice, so far, he is a key suspect in three first-degree murder cases, plus escaped on bail, and has always been at large!" The defendant's lawyer angrily pointed at the pale Lawrence, and spat categorically: "This criminal who is full of evil has long lost the qualification to testify in court!" He does not even have the qualifications to be a tainted witness, so his testimony has no credibility at all, and as long as he is tempted by the slightest lure, he will betray his conscience and morality, and as long as he submits to the coercion of his superiors, he will not hesitate to give false testimony, because this smuggler, murderer, and fugitive has no credibility at all!"

Like thunder on the plains, Lawrence was stunned. He opened his mouth wide in a trembling voice, his tongue trembled, but he couldn't refute it, his hands trembled and he raised it, and suddenly pounded the table hysterically: "What I said is true! I came here to testify at the expense of everything, and I must make Oppenheimer subject the same sanctions as me! I hate him to the core, how could I lie!"

"Yes, you hate him to the core, so you have a motive for perjury!" The defendant's lawyer was aggressive and pursued after the victory: "Jury, honorable court, Lawrence has stopped admitting himself, and my questioning is over here, and I firmly believe that a fair verdict will be made in court." ”

Filia was so angry that she stamped her feet in protest, but was dismissed by the judge: "The defendant's questioning ended, the court was adjourned for 5 minutes, and the jury and the judge exchanged opinions. ”

Frederick blushed and turned his head to look at Ferdinand, where he saw the noble prince calmly caressing his chin and looking at himself playfully. Their eyes clashed in unison, with Frederick bowing his head slightly, his eyes as if facing a great enemy, and Ferdinand holding his head up leisurely, full of playful contempt.

The entire auditorium was whispering, nervously holding their breath, because the judicial battle was approaching an exciting climax.

Five minutes later, Justice Francis announced with a shy face: "Witness No. 2 Lawrence lacks credibility and has only limited reference value, and cannot be regarded as valid testimony." The plaintiff is requested to continue to present valid evidence and improve the chain of evidence. Otherwise, the case will be lost due to insufficient evidence. ”

The auditorium was in an uproar, and the grumpy officer Van Klee stood up, pointed to the judgment seat and scolded: "Lawrence has been a priest of the precepts for 13 years, and he has no motive to commit perjury!"

"The Department of Justice is so dark that you can't see your fingers!"

"Are you just sitting back and watching the defendant exploit the loopholes?

Filia was so angry that she rushed to the front of the court to argue with the justice. But Justice Francis defended Oppenheimer with all his heart, turned a blind eye to Philia's anger, and numbly turned a deaf ear, knocking on the hammer and arguing with the girl: "Protest is invalid, repeat, protest is invalid." Please show stronger evidence. Otherwise, the case will be lost due to insufficient evidence......"

Suddenly, Filia's wrist was tugged, and she looked back to see Frederick frowning calmly, staring at Justice Francis with hatred and forbearance, gritting her teeth and saying, "As long as I prove the causal link between Oppenheimer and Mendelssohn, and refer to Lawrence's testimony, the defendant's guilt will be proven." Really?"

"Yes. Please show stronger evidence. Justice Francis repeated in a chatter.

"Justices, juries, and all those who are qualified to be notaries, please come with me. I am too humble to convince His Highness Francis. Let's brush away the dust of the ancients, face the truth of the past, and let the thick history tell Lord Francis with his own mouth: what is right and what is wrong. Frederick looked around and declared categorically: "If you want to see the last evidence, please come with me." ”

Frederick then turned and walked up the stairs, and walked out of the courtroom door alone, his figure dissolved in the blazing white midday sun. (To be continued.) )
