Solomon laughed more and more happily: "Ed, stumbling do you want to deny the radical and violent nature of this organization?" Don't forget, I'm also Jewish, and I don't know much about these organizations at all. Actually, I was in charge of this case to take this opportunity to send Kahani Rabi and his miscellaneous pieces to prison......"

"I'm certainly not a good person, but people like me are the most loyal guardian of the country and the order. We don't have to discuss procedural justice and consequential justice among ourselves...... For me at that time, sending this bastard in was good for society, and good for me personally."

"And yet...... I'm curious, but now that I think about it, doesn't your conscience hurt? ”

Through the microphone, Edward could feel the other party's yin and yang weirdness and helplessness.

He retorted with a hippie smile, "I ask, what about your conscience?" ”

“？？ I said Ed, why do you think I still have a conscience? Solomon's voice was full of discontent!

"Ahem......" Edward was defeated and could only answer questions

"Solomon, you know, I've always looked down on Kahani Rabi's stuff. For me, violence is not worth advocating, especially in my own country, which is violent and destroys the lives and property of its own citizens, and this kind of thug can only be called a coward! ”

There was a snapping sound coming from the earpiece, Solomon wasn't Hefner or Larry Flint, who didn't have a hobby of doing something else on the phone, it could only be that he was clapping his hands "Dear Ed, to be honest, I trust you completely!" I'm sure you're viscerally disgusted with violence, and as a Jew you shouldn't have any attachment to Zionism......"

"Of course...... Aren't we doing well in the United States, why go back to that place where sand and enemies are all about? The United States is my home......" Edward muttered, half of which was sincere.

He didn't have any special ideas about that desert, and it should be good to have the opportunity to travel, but it was a foregone conclusion...... Forget it, in my last life, I heard on the TV news every three or five days that the place was always attacked by rockets and mortars......

The kind welded by liquefied gas cans looks very simple and strong, and if a hair falls on your legs, you can't find a piece of meat larger than half a catty......

"Yes, that's a good point. But it is useless to say this to me, you should say it to Pravda, Izvestia and TASS. Let me tell you, when you defended Sheldon, the Russian news media devoted a lot of space to it...... Come to think of it, your defense of Sheldon is tantamount to a clear message to the Soviet authorities that you support Zionism. No, no, no, don't contradict me, do you want me to make an appointment with Ambassador Dobrynin for you, and you can confide in him your grievances......"

The last sentence is obviously that Solomon is making fun of him in order to avenge the one-shot revenge of the year.

Unexpectedly, he couldn't laugh the next second.

"Hehe, dear Solomon, did I forget to tell you that I have actually applied for a visa, do you want me to fax it to you?"

"What's going on? Damn, how did you do that!? Solomon was a little angry, "I thought I could take this opportunity to make you owe me a favor......"

"Hahahaha" Edward laughed maniacally, full of a sense of villain's pride, "Seriously, I already owe you a lot of favors. So forget it this time, because I can't pay it off. ”

"As for how I applied for it, you should remember that I was in my office in New York...... Well, don't you laugh that there is a talented chess player hidden in that house in Brooklyn, the youngest American chess champion ever? ”

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time......

"Ed, you've surprised me. You've been working on this idea for a long time, haven't you...... Or is that what you took in Miss Beth Harmon for? ”

"Well," Edward chuckled, lewdly, "she's very pretty, and I like her character...... So, I'll be accompanying the talented Miss Beth Harmon, the champion of the American Chess League, to Moscow in a week as an agent for a showdown between her and Petrosyan, and I'm sure you'll see me in the newspapers and on the news. ”

"Well," Solomon sighed, "then good luck, by the way, if you encounter difficulties in Moscow, remember to call me." ”

"God, you have a relationship in Moscow?" Edward was startled

"I have friends and business partners, but don't forget that I have an uncle who has been the CIA director for ten years, and an aunt who is in charge of ODI...... And our family is famous for their love of making friends, and I think there should be someone whose elders spent a long time in the Soviet Union. In short, remember to be flexible when you encounter problems. ”

"Well, if one day I travel to Africa and get caught by cannibal tribes, I probably can hope for you......"

"Of course, I cannibalize people more civilized and efficient than them......

Edward pouted, "The era of mechanized large-scale assembly line production, right?"

……

So when it comes to applying for a visa, Edward's little trick is that he applies with Beth Harmon.

Professor Talford Taylor and his assistant Professor George Fletcher went to the Soviet Embassy separately.

Professor Fletcher is a professor at the University of California School of Law, and he has a good personal relationship with Professor Taylor, and more importantly, he is the leading American expert on Soviet law, and he is fluent in Russian, which is very useful.

The two of them applied to the Soviet Embassy in San Francisco to visit the Soviet Union, and the reason was generously written "to apply for a visit to the Soviet Union for legal affairs" -- ahem, visiting the head of the Supreme People's Procuratorate and the Supreme People's Court is not a legal matter.

Also handed over were copies of Taylor's previous personal letters to the Prosecutor General of the USSR Rudenko and to the President of the Supreme Court, Smirnov: "I hope to visit the USSR soon." We haven't seen each other for more than twenty years since we tried war criminals together in Nuremberg. I would be grateful if I could meet again in Moscow to renew our friendship and talk about legal issues of mutual interest. In the blink of an eye, we are all getting old, and the opportunities to meet are becoming fewer and fewer...... You are busy with official business, and you don't think you will have much chance to come to the United States...... That's why I'm an idler."

And the other party's reply was also very enthusiastic, and of course it was also attached.

As you can imagine, the official in charge of visas already knew about Professor Taylor's good reputation, and after seeing two more personal letters, he immediately agreed without hesitation, and wished Professor Taylor a good time in Moscow and a good chat with old friends.

Originally, everyone thought that it was a very troublesome thing for the three of them to get a visa, but Edward had worked hard to learn Russian before, but he was afraid that the three of them would not be able to enter the country together, but he didn't expect it to be solved so easily, which is probably a good sign.

Edward wasn't proud of that, in fact he was so busy that he didn't have time to think about the things that were out of his mind.

But within the organization, he became famous, and everyone found that this young guy was not only proficient in justice, worked hard, but also had a good brain, and all kinds of crooked electrons were constantly popping up in his place, and they were all very effective.

And Edward also proudly showed off to everyone: "Hey, getting a passport is a trivial matter, this time you should praise me, because I saved money for our organization." You know, hotels in Moscow are not cheap. But I don't have to pay a penny, the Soviet Sports Bureau will cover all my expenses, including caviar and the best vodka for dinner every day. But I don't think it's a good waste of Soviet money, so I'll think about it and I'll huddle in a room with Beth to deal with it! The feather pillows at the Ukrainian Hotel in Moscow are said to be the softest in Europe! ”

"You bastard!"

"Remember the word moderation!"

"God, let's kill Edward with a thunderbolt, I can't stand it anymore!"

It was unusually cold in New York in December, and Edward was used to the California sun, and now it was a bit difficult for him to go back and blow the cold wind.

But the thought of flying to Moscow, which is even colder, suddenly goosebumps rose.

The barbaric climate that made both Napoleon and Hitler go home with a feather of a feather, don't freeze your own dog's life, especially if you are going with a "mission......

When I think of those legends about KGB's black hand, someone still shudders.

This time, a total of four people acted in two groups.

Professors Taylor and Fletcher went in the name of "exchanging legal issues of mutual interest" with the president of the Supreme Court of the USSR and the prosecutor general of the Supreme People's Prosecutor.

Someone was the agent and attendant of the great American chess champion Miss Beth Harmon, who was in charge of carrying her bag or babysitting......

Even the departure point was different, and the Taylor group set off directly from New York on the Arctic route.

Edward waited for Beth to come over in San Francisco, and the two met up and flew from the West Coast to Siberia before connecting flights.

The purpose of this is nothing more than to cover up people's eyes, after all, KGB has great powers, if he knows that he is on the same plane as Taylor, I am afraid that there will be more twists and turns.

And the goals of the two groups are also different, Taylor is of course "reminiscing", walking up the hierarchy to see if he can persuade the two to be exempted from special imprisonment that year.

By the way, the "crimes" of those other people will be retried, at least ...... The judgment seat should not be full of kgb cheerleaders, and from time to time there will be a uniform cry of "hang him, hang him, hang him".

If it weren't for the fact that human lives are at stake, this scene would be really funny, and it would have reminded someone of the solidarity style of the Cao County cheerleading team in the international Olympic arena that they had seen in their previous lives......

Ultimately, their goal is to...... Belch......

Let...... Taylor served as appeals counsel for these individuals.

Extrapolating from common sense, you know that this is simply impossible.

This is an unreasonable request.

Just as the United States would not accept Soviet lawyers to defend Franklin, if a lawyer from Moscow actually flew in to help Franklin, I am afraid that the latter's last good impression among the people will disappear......

Nima, Litong foreign real hammer! It must have been the money received from Moscow with the intention of messing up the United States!

Proper foreign forces have intervened!

And Franklin, if he had been smarter, would have refused Moscow's help – not necessarily with bad intentions, but with a genuine desire to help his fellow traveler abroad......

But Moscow is not stupid, and of course it will not do such a stupid thing to give people a handle.

Moreover, the legal systems of the two countries are different after all, and the Soviet Union's claim to be a civil law system is actually unique, and the United States, needless to say, has the largest jurisprudence and the most extensive law of the sea system.

Both sides have professionals who study each other's laws, and their achievements are not low, but the Soviets know that no matter how thorough the research is, it is useless, because after all, there are too few people to cover the endless jurisprudence of the other side, although the complete collection of precedents in Washington is available in Moscow......

In short, the Americans went to work as lawyers for the Soviets, which was simply extremely whimsical.

And yet the events turned out to be somewhat credible?

The Soviet Program for the Legal Protection of Jews was a pure NGO that had nothing to do with the federal government.

But don't forget, academic bigwigs like Rushberg are also members of it, not to mention Professor Taylor, who is full of peach and plum.

The success of the incident is inseparable from the efforts of Edward and his colleagues, but there are still people behind the scenes.

For example, this matter must not be hidden from the eyes of Lord Hoover, and yes, no one in the United States can escape Hoover's gaze.

He expressed enough silence about this, which in itself is a reflection of attitude.

Although the FBI is a national federal police officer who doesn't care about foreign affairs, he also works for the federal government, and it is too late for him to be happy when someone is willing to put an eye on the federal government's worst enemy.

He may also personally write a memo to the CIA boss, suggesting that he help in his capacity at the right time.

"The fate of a person, of course, depends on one's own struggle, but it is also necessary to consider the historical itinerary, and I do not absolutely know, how did I, as a lawyer in New York, end up in Moscow? Professor Taylor came to talk to me...... It's all decided, you're in charge......"

Edward was muttering to himself how this thing made him so unreliable.

It means that you know you can't do it.

But on the other hand, it is precisely because everyone knows that this matter is difficult to handle that it will be his turn, otherwise wouldn't the Jewish lawyers in the United States have to squeeze their heads?

Moreover, because everyone's expectations for this matter are extremely low - everyone thinks that it is good that these people can come back alive and well (just to save the life of a dog, even if there are any shortcomings) - so any breakthrough can be worth writing about.

After all, this is a hole in the Iron Curtain with American law, no matter how small it is, it can still transmit light!

With this small hole, the subsequent various actions are much more convenient.

In this regard, Larry Flint has patted his chest and promised that on the day of Edward's successful return, he will definitely leave him with the cover of the current issue.

Someone sweated profusely and thanked Larry for his kindness, and repeatedly said that he was not worthy, which dispelled his idea - you must know that the cover of "Womanizer" is never clothed, and Edward can't afford to lose that person.
