Chapter 59: Litigation
The passage of the Nanshouxing Agreement finally brought the curtain down on this great war between adventurers, and at the same time, it also made a temporary peace in the long-standing discord among adventurers.
In fact, Shen Yi really wanted to take the opportunity to establish an alliance of adventurers, but under Ye Dongsheng's hint, Shen Yi knew that this was a taboo - as he knew before, the unity between adventurers may not meet the needs of the Supreme Council.
What's more, in the eyes of the four major forces, with an alliance, there must be rules, and for the strong, this is a kind of constraint.
So after finishing the things here, Shen Yi and the others returned to Tianmo.
The main base of Titan is now a thriving scene.
The third independent base is already under construction, and at the same time Lao Meng is also coming.
Shen Yi set aside a piece of his original base location for Lao Meng and invited him to be a neighbor here. Anyway, although he planned to build ten bases, he didn't have to be limited to Titus.
Now that there are three of them, there are some to be vacated here.
In the future, if necessary, when Chu Sheng and them come, Shen Yi can also consider building a sub-base on the third planet.
With portals, they can travel to and from planets faster.
Compared to other adventurers, the Broken Blades who can put their ships in the heraldic space have more strategic advantages.
So in the following days, life returned to the old rhythm, vigorously unfolding in the busy construction.
But it was just beginning, and it was interrupted by a not-so-unexpected accident.
On the third day back at the base, Cliff arrived again, and he brought Shen Yi bad news:
The Interstellar Alliance has decided to file a lawsuit against Shen Yi for attacking the fleet.
Shen Yi was not surprised by this news, he just felt funny.
In the office, putting down the unfinished expansion plan of the new base, Shen Yi smiled and said, "Lawsuit? are you saying they want to judge me?"
Cliff also spread his hands helplessly: "Yes." The Star Alliance believes that an investigation into the incident is necessary to see who is actively initiating the attack. ”
"That's interesting, I've already submitted the evidence, isn't it obvious?"
"Maybe it seems so to you, but they obviously don't think so, so the guilt is to be decided by trial. ”
"It's really interesting. Shen Yi laughed: "I didn't know that there was such a thing as a trial in the bloody city." ”
"Come on, Shen Yi, don't play stupid with me, you know. When some problems and rules cannot be solved, the rule of man becomes inevitable. There are alliances and people in this world, and naturally there will be judgments, otherwise why do you need evidence?"
"But that doesn't mean they're qualified to judge me. Shen Yi's face sank: "I'm not from the Interstellar Alliance. ”
"You think they don't understand this, what do you think they've been up to for the past two days, why do you think I'm sitting here?" asked Cliff rhetorically.
Shen Yi's eyes narrowed: "What do you mean......"
"Form a joint jury, including adventurers and interstellar alliance people, a total of twelve people, half on each side, and at the same time supervised by the Supreme Council, you can't ignore it. ”
"The Supreme Council will come forward in person?" Shen Yi's eyes glowed.
Cliff nodded: "Yes, the Supreme Council will come forward in person, and the seven judges/judges will cooperate with the jury of twelve people to deal with this matter, your face is big enough." ”
I thought that this matter could scare Shen Yi, but I didn't expect Shen Yi to laugh.
There was a glint of excitement in his eyes as he muttered, "Interesting...... But doesn't that mean the Supreme Council can't intervene?"
"As a member of the Supreme Council, you can't intervene, but as a member of the Supreme Council of the Star Alliance, you can, so this trial has nothing to do with the rules. ”
"Pure human processing?"
"That's right. ”
"Then I can fight that too?"
“...... Of course, if you want to even treat everyone in the room as civilians in the mission world and go on a killing spree, and I promise the rules won't punish you, are you willing to do that?"
"Just ask, why are you so nervous. Shen Yi laughed.
Cliff frowned: "You don't need to be so excited, Shen Yi, you have to know that the current situation is very unfavorable for you." The Star Alliance did not directly take a strong hand against you, because they also did not want to incur the wrath of all adventurers, but if you are convicted through a trial, then it is reasonable and legal to punish you, and no one can say anything. ”
"In the name of the law...... I get it, but that doesn't mean they're going to win. ”
"Then it's up to them to do it. They move two days before you and you know there are many adventurers......"
"Yes, I understand. Shen Yi nodded: "They can do tricks on the jury, on the surface, it seems that six adventurers and six members of the Interstellar Alliance will be jurified, which is very fair, but the people are chosen by them, right?"
"It's like we decided to be the boss of the Vientiane Palace. ”
"And the location is also in the system star?"
"Yes, you're in a dangerous situation!" Cliff said earnestly.
The time, the place, and the people are not available, and Cliff really can't think of a way for Shen Yi to save the defeat.
Once Shen Yi is found guilty, then this is the joint decision of the Interstellar Alliance and the adventurers, and Shen Yi will not be able to cry to anyone at that time, thus avoiding the risk of civil strife to the greatest extent.
"So...... Do I have a lawyer?" asked Shen Yi.
"Of course, you can designate one yourself, or the alliance can arrange one for you. Shen Yi, if you need it, I have a guy from the Purgatory Sect who was born as a lawyer, and he may be able to help you. ”
"That's right. Shen Yi touched his chin, and finally nodded: "Okay, help me invite him to come, I have something I want to ask him for advice." ”
"Excuse me, aren't you going to ask him to be your lawyer?"
"I don't need a lawyer, I defend myself. Shen Yi replied indifferently.
Cliff was taken aback by him, stood up and shouted, "Shen Yi, don't be too self-righteous. It's a professional problem, you haven't studied law, you can't figure out everything here!"
"It depends on which law it is. Shen Yi replied leisurely: "Since you are being tried in the Interstellar Alliance, shouldn't you act in accordance with the laws of the Alliance?"
Cliff was stunned, and then laughed angrily: "Have you studied the laws of the alliance?"
"I haven't researched it, so I'm going to ask your lawyer, General, for advice. ”
"Ad hoc advice doesn't give you all the laws of the Union. ”
Shen Yi held up a finger: "I only need to master one." ”
According to information sent by Cliff, the trial will begin in two days.
At that time, Shen Yi, as the main culprit, must attend in person, and other members of the Broken Blade Team cannot be exempted as accomplices.
To be honest, Shen Yi basically won't have any luck in this seemingly fair trial - he will definitely be punished, the difference is only in the strength of the punishment.
But looking at this posture, I'm afraid that the strength will not be small.
Execution is unlikely, it is not easy to train an adventurer, but imprisonment and fines are most inevitable, and the number is not small, enough for an adventurer to grab his head and wail endlessly.
Shen Yi didn't care about this, and after learning the whole situation, he personally sent Cliff out.
Seeing Shen Yi's smile all the way, Cliff really couldn't imagine what kind of confidence Shen Yi had to laugh in such a situation.
At that time, he had the urge to pull Shen Yi's face to see if there were tears hidden under his eyelids.
However, the fact is that Shen Yi is indeed not the slightest worried, it seems that instead of worrying, he is quite looking forward to the upcoming trial.
"Hell, I don't know what's going on in your head. Before leaving, Cliff grumbled.
"That's because you're not me. Shen Yi smiled and waved to Cliff: "Okay, don't worry about me, everything will be solved!"
"I won't worry about you, I'll wait for the court to convict you and put you in prison for hard labor, and then I'll come and see you!" cried Cliff angrily, and the transport plane took off amid his roar.
Looking at the sky, Shen Yi muttered to himself: "Actually, I am also waiting for this day to come......"
