Although in the end, there was no suggestion for Stanford to add bodyguards, but he did add a job to the research assistant Joel, and let him check the letters, and those that were not signed or seemed to be very radical in the middle of the two, such as the "Association for the Change of America" and the "Committee for the Total Cessation of War", were dismantled on the spot.

After reading the general content, just make a registration.

A few days later Joel protested, "Ed, you can't do this to me!" ”

“？？？” Edward was a little confused, Joel was a very good young man, said he was a research assistant, and actually took on some of the responsibilities of life secretary, such as when the driver drove him around, so that Edward could have time to think about various problems in the car.

Of course, this is Stanford's thoughtfulness, but in fact, it is also a good calculation, and it is necessary to squeeze out as much of the intellectual achievements of these visiting scholars as possible.

Joel was also a little too too young, too simple when he agreed to take over this job, those letters, he had also seen, the number was not much, there were only three or five letters a day, and occasionally when the skylight was opened, he thought that he would spend ten minutes a day at most, and the task was not heavy and he could sell Edward's personal favor.

It was only after working that I realized that this thing was not done by a human being, and these letters were either begging or arrogant, but they all smelled of intellectual deficiency, and occasionally someone was willing to use his body to pay the lawyer's fee for the "patriotic Franklin", and by the way, he also sent photos.

Joel is not a military fan, and all kinds of tanks have a great impact on his spirit, but he is the opposite sex...... One day, when he pinched a bewitching fruit photo of the same sex, he finally broke the defense.

Holding the photo and crying to find someone to complain.

Edward closed his eyes tightly, "Damn it, get that thing out of front of me, I'm telling you, you're at least second-degree murder, you know!" ”

However, someone later spared Joel from this drudgery, and he asked Joel to go to the campus as a senior brother to kidnap an undergraduate student to do the work...... Anyway, young and strong (mental) ability to resist blows.

Edward himself really didn't want to be upset about such a thing.

The main thing is that he really doesn't like Franklin as a person, so to speak, Franklin is probably the most annoying of all the clients he has ever experienced.

Even Bergman, the "worst man in New York," had some sparkle and was really unfairly treated — no one survived a media war led by a senator — unless it was another senator.

In defending Bergman, he was able to convince himself that "this is to preserve the dignity of the Constitution, and Bergman deserves to go to jail, but he should not be a victim of senators playing with justice and journalism......"

But to Franklin, to be honest, Edward felt that Stanford was still quite on the road, at least he had stopped his salary before, which was a warning, not a punishment.

This thing is purely self-inflicted.

If he had to choose, Edward would not even be willing to be Larry Parry's defender, and it would not be Franklin, and it is certainly hateful for Memphis to sweep the yellow nail rake and create the law privately, but at least Larry Parry is above board and does everything by himself.

On the other hand, Bruce Franklin is not like this, it is undeniable that he is a person who has faith and is right, and is willing to fight for his beliefs, but he always lets others come out to carry out all kinds of violent terrorist activities, and he himself is always hiding in a corner, and even complacent.

Such a man was so shrewd, shrewd that it was frightening, and Edward's instinct told him that Franklin himself was synonymous with trouble and danger, and that it was best to stay away from him.

It's just that whenever he lies in bed at night, he can't help but think of some questions.

These questions don't come to mind during the busy day, and of course it may be that the brain itself is trying to block them out under the pretext of being busy – because there are disturbing facts hidden in them.

First of all, it is certain that, formally speaking, Stanford's accusation against Franklin is a matter of free speech, and the school has no evidence of his personal involvement in the violence, and it is always believed that Franklin's inappropriate words led to the subsequent violence, and he is responsible for it.

Clearly, this is contrary to the spirit of free speech, and from the perspective of the First Amendment, the actions of the school are outright unconstitutional! It's untechnical, it's extremely simple and crude.

Second, there is nothing wrong with the fact that no one wants to defend Franklin.

But Edward himself knew after mixing up at Yale Law School that there were many naïve idealists among the law school professors, and many of them were persistent in making people feel unbelievable, and in Chinese terms, they were admitting death to the extreme.

Therefore, in the United States, there is no shortage of lawyers for any crime of anyone, especially cases involving freedom of speech like Franklin.

But now, not only is there no one at Stanford Law School or the Stanford community willing to defend him, but he can't even get lawyers from other regions to come and defend him at the hearing.

This is obviously too unusual.

And he learned that the university had spent a lot of money to hire several first-class attorneys to charge Franklin at the hearing, while refusing to pay Franklin's attorneys.

This may sound like nonsense, but it is an unwritten rule of the university, and the university is obligated to find a lawyer for the tenured professor to protect his or her own interests.

This unspoken rule, whether you say that he is hypocritical or that he is the representative of the spirit of the United States, at least before that, everyone still tacitly abides by it.

This time, the Stanford school skipped directly, obviously hating Franklin so much that he began to lose face, which is like "Uncle Chen, I'm really angry this time......

Edward can understand the school's thoughts, but on the other hand, does it also prove that the school itself is somewhat weak-minded?

Truth be told, Stanford's approach is far inferior to Yale's.

Edward's three-year Ph.D. in New Haven was Yale's darkest age.

Various student movements.

It's not that the school doesn't want to do it.

But each time, law school faculty members would stand up and volunteer to defend the students who were being dealt with by the school.

Whether you say that these guys are stupid and naïve, at least this kind of behavior is commonplace.

Later, the school was also a little tired, and there was a tendency to self-deprecate with "tired, let's destroy".

Stanford is the first time I've seen it this time.

At Yale, even when some students are taken away by the police, at least the university will not prevent professors from acting as legal advisers to bring them back from the police station.

This time Hansen was similar, in fact, not long after he was taken away, someone asked for legal aid for him, but Hansen insisted that it was Edward.

In short, in the dead of night, these questions kept bothering him.

Of course, it is okay for him to resolutely refuse to accept the case, and the excuse is also sufficient, he is a visiting scholar and wants to produce results.

However, Rustberg made a phone call, which made him a little unable to sit still.

Although she was in New Haven, Roseberg knew the situation at Stanford very well, and she gently advised him on the phone, "If you have time, you should provide Franklin with the necessary legal assistance, so that you can be worthy of the goddess of justice"

He couldn't sleep.

The phone rang......

"Hey, Ed, I'm Hugh, I'm in San Francisco, can you have time to sit down?" A familiar cynical tone.

Who else besides Hugh Hefner?

"Well, it seems a bit far......" Edward said casually.

Hefner has more than one Playboy Club in San Francisco.

Then it's at least a little over an hour from the town of Palo Alto.

He has been spending his energy on his studies lately, and he feels tired every day when he gets home, and he just wants to go to bed early and drive? I'm afraid I can't even step on the accelerator.

I'm not too embarrassed to bother Joel now, after all, it's after work time.

"Well, I knew I had already sent someone to pick you up...... About 15 minutes later to ......"

"Uh...... You, how do you know where I live? ”

"Of course I know, it's not a big secret...... I know you've been busy lately, so I wanted to come and visit, but ......" laughed on the other end of the phone, "Not to mention that there are no girls in your place, and Franklin's guerrillas are elusive, and if they could, they would probably be the first to shoot me......"

"Poof," Edward laughed, too, "You should kill a young revolutionary soldier full of ideals with capitalist middle-class life...... Well, I'll go clean up now, and wait for you to corrupt me......"

……

"So you're worried about this?" At the Playboy Club, Hefner wears gorgeous golden-red silk pajamas.

This was Edward's idea, and Hefner liked it.

You must know that in this era, it is already out of the ordinary for women to wear underwear, and as a result, a straight man runs around in pajamas all day in a private jet, coupled with the continuous publicity of his own magazine, Hefner has benefited a lot from this.

Originally, he was a little weak about Guccone, who was a serious Italian photographer in England.

The aesthetic excellence and its own communication are often used as a model by fashion magazines - Hugh Hefner was furious about this, thinking that this was definitely Guccone's money, as an entrepreneur who ran a pornographic magazine, and actually invested money in fashion magazines to set up a persona for himself, which was simply a betrayal.

In this regard, Edward thought that Hefner was simply jealous...... In fact, the latter is also good-looking, but the poor boy's background leads to a poor style and taste, and he looks like a nouveau riche in any clothes, although it is not as outrageous as Guo Degang wearing Givenchy, but it is true that it is not eye-catching.

Everyone is a giant, and they usually fight openly and secretly, and Hefner is slightly better in terms of magazines, but he is not good in terms of personal image.

Gu Cioné is also a playboy, and he changes partners when he has nothing to do (he can't even talk about a girlfriend), but when the media talks about Gu Cione, another woman is fascinated by him.

But what about Hefner? Well, there is also a standard template, another woman lost in money and desire......

But do you say that Gu Cione doesn't throw money? Ghost believes!

But that's what fashion magazines did, and Hefner wasn't helpless.

As soon as the pajama Dafa came out, it caused huge controversy and waves.

But Hefner had a bad relationship with fashion magazines in the first place – and the simple truth was that Playboy was a model of a middle-class lifestyle with a pornographic sheep's head, which would have made other magazines unhappy.

For this reason, these magazines concentrated their firepower and scolded, but as a result, the traffic also rolled in, and Hefner gained fame and fortune!

His style of wearing pajamas has also been interpreted as a mockery of the mainstream fashion media's dominance of so-called pop style.

Of course, Andy Warhol also played a big role in this, he was an important partner in Edward's pornography business, and he also had a relationship with Eddie Sedgwick.

You must know that the green hair can only be lower than the yellow hair forever.

But this green hair has a huge power in the art circle, no matter how awesome the fashion circle is, you can see that the art circle still has to kneel, after all, the latter is really good at the study of beauty, and the former is just using the "beauty" brand to cheat the public's money...... Can it be the same?

Hugh Hefner thought about it and felt that all this was really due to Edward, originally his affairs were considered to have reached a bottleneck, and he was a little bit of a bad taste, but with the pajama trend, he suddenly won a large part of the market, and then the impact of the "Deep Throat" series of cases, and now the big three deals are on fire.

Hefner, Guccone, and others were eager to hug Edward and kiss him fiercely, but Larry Flint was more special, and he was willing to put his cow in Edward's mouth to show his absolute trust in him, and vice versa......

At the same time, Hefner also saw Edward's great potential, and the fact that Harry Remus's case could be turned over by him from the Federal Supreme Court is enough to show that this guy has great potential in law.

"yes," Edward sipped his martini with a sad face, ignoring the cute and beautiful bunny girl beside him.

To Hefner's surprise, this guy wasn't a decent man, and according to the bunny girls in New York, the young lawyer was very good at playing.

But now, he was clearly absent-minded.

"Hugh, think about it for me, what the hell should I do?"

"What to do?!" Hefner crossed his legs.

Edward felt that his brain hurt, because the other party's movements resembled the standard portrait of Sharon Stone in "Instinct", whether Sharon Stone wore underwear back then is a mystery for the ages, ahem, Edward estimated that with Hefner's coquettish virtue, it was mostly vacuum......

"I said Ed, you're confused!" Hefner was very open, "If I were you, even if I spent money, no matter how much money I spent, I would give this case to the next one, understand!" ”

"I don't understand...... Edward sighed "Hugh, I'll be honest with you, first of all, I really don't like Bruce Franklin, this guy is really a bastard...... I'm sure you won't like it either......"

"Of course I hate this guy, you see my magazine is promoting a good middle-class lifestyle, which has to have a premise, the country is stable...... The sun and beaches of California will never welcome bullets and Molotov cocktails from the 'Victory' organization, and I'm glad that there are only one or two such guys, and if there are too many, I guess I'll have to ask the underworld to kill them, and it's worth the ...... of spending more money" Hefner patted the armrest of the couch, looking angry.
