Chapter 54 - Your Excellency, I Plead Guilty!
"Hello, Your Excellency." Huang Yuan gave Odell a certain amount of respect.
"Huang Yuan, do you have any objections to the plaintiff's two lawsuits?"
When Huang Yuan walked to the speaker's seat, Odell looked at him and asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Huang Yuan looked at Odell and said, "First of all, what I need to refute is the criminal prosecution of me personally. ”
"Yes, please." Odell pushed his reading glasses.
Huang Yuan nodded and continued: "Your Excellency, all of you in the trial and jury seats, before making a defense, I would like to present a piece of video evidence. ”
"Yes, I agree."
Soon, a video was playing on the big screen in the courtroom.
The content is that Huang Yuan drove out of his home, and then saved Jiali and Cersei from the mouth of the three-headed mutant wyvern.
Huang Yuan pressed the stop button, then turned his head to look at Odell Lang and said, "Your Excellency, the people in the video are my friends and relatives. ”
"Seeing that they are in a situation where they are about to die, I didn't violate any constitution by saving them, right?"
"Secondly, these three-headed monsters are not North American citizens, and they are charged with illegal smuggling, destruction of public property, threats to North American citizens, and intentional homicide."
"I didn't break any North American constitution or criminal law by killing them, did I?"
Justice Odell nodded when he heard this, "Well, that's right, I may also want the Philadelphia office to award you a good citizen medal." ”
The people in the audience burst out laughing.
"Then everybody watch this video again."
Huang Yuan continued to play the video, and here is the video before he did it to Gray.
After the playback, Huang Yuan looked at Harvey Dent and said, "Prosecutor Harvey, first of all, I am talking to Gray, oh, Gray is the name of that monster." ”
"I gave advance notice at a volume that everyone could hear before I even started with it."
"Then before the fight was confirmed, I even deliberately delayed the approach time to give the people around me who might be victims enough time to escape."
Then he turned to look at Odell and said, "May I ask Your Excellency, have I fulfilled my duty of warning and waiting?" ”
Odell nodded and said, "Well, although there is no clear constitutional provision, your actions have fulfilled the obligations of a citizen, and this court will adopt it!" ”
Seeing that the situation didn't seem right, Harvey Dante immediately stood up and protested: "Your Excellency, I protest! ”
Odell looked at him and said directly: "The protest is invalid, the defendant's defense is not over, Harvey Dante, please sit back." ”
"Yes, Your Excellency." Harvey Dent had no choice but to sit back in his chair.
After all, the position of the chief justice in the courtroom, whether in name or in fact, is the greatest.
And it is obvious that Justice Odell is biased towards Huang Yuan, as for the reason, just look at the audience.
"Huang Yuan, please continue to state." Odell gestured.
Huang Yuan continued to say aloud: "I admit that a lot of buildings and public facilities were destroyed during the battle in Yukro. ”
"However, as a North American citizen, I am fighting a monster that has invaded the territory of North America."
"Please remember that I fought without any support."
"What about the Philadelphia Patrol, SWAT, and Fire Officers who are supposed to protect us Philadelphia residents?"
"Or the National Guard to protect the citizens of the state, the FBI and the Homeland Security to protect the safety of citizens, and the North American army, which claims to be the strongest in the world?"
Huang Yuan's voice raised three degrees and said, "No, I haven't seen a member of any of the departments I mentioned appear, it's all on my own!" ”
"So Mr. and Miss of the jury, Your Excellency the Judge, and all of you citizens of North America here."
"May I ask if these civil damages and criminal prosecutions should really be borne by me, by a brave citizen who is willing to risk his life to protect the whole of Philadelphia?"
The entire courtroom suddenly fell silent, and everyone was shocked by Huang Yuan's defense speech.
Even Harvey Dant didn't know what words to refute for a moment.
Then the jury began to raise their hands and applaud, as did the people in the audience, and finally even Justice Hader applauded.
After striking the gavel to signal silence, Hader looked down and said, "Huang Yuan, the content of your statement is reasonable, reasonable, and accepted by this court. ”
"No!"
At this time, Harvey Dant suddenly shouted: "Your Excellency, Your Excellency, I have not finished my indictment!"
Hader nodded, "Okay, continue with your indictment, Prosecutor Harvey." ”
Without looking at the judge's displeased face, Harvey Dent looked at Huang Yuan and said, "No matter how fanciful you say, you can't deny that in this battle, fifty-four Philadelphia citizens died because of your battle with that monster. ”
"You can hide from those civil compensation lawsuits, but you can never hide from these lives and your relationship!"
"Your Excellency, I would like to present a video of the plaintiffs in the criminal prosecution."
"Permission!"
Soon, people with hateful faces and tears appeared on the screen, carrying out murder accusations against Huang Yuan.
When the video was played, Harvey Dent looked at Huang Yuan and said, "What else do you have to defend?" ”
Hader looked at Huang Yuan: "The defendant and the defendant's lawyer, do you have a defense to these fifty-four criminal prosecutions?" ”
Kang Er immediately got up and said, "Your Excellency, I also have video evidence to request to play." ”
"Yes."
The video is composed of the content of a monitoring probe, and the source is needless to say, and no one present will be stupid enough to pursue it.
In the video, a Philadelphia citizen enters a convenience store and ransacks it while everyone is fleeing, only to have his house collapsed in the aftermath of the battle.
Then, another person took advantage of the chaos of the street to drag a woman into the alley in an attempt to commit violence, but was suddenly stoned to death.
There are twenty-three videos, all of which highlight the ugliness of human nature.
Turning off the video, Lawyer Kanger looked at Hader and said, "Your Excellency, they all had a chance to live, but they died because of their choice!" ”
"Is such a person, in the opinion of the jury, really to blame my client?"
The fifty juries looked at each other, and then began to talk to each other.
Harvey Dent immediately said: "No matter what, their deaths are because of the battle between Huang Yuan and Crow, and there are also twenty-seven other deaths that you can't state, so he can't escape this crime!" ”
Just as Kang Er was about to continue his defense, Huang Yuan got up and interrupted him: "Your Excellency, Honorable Judge, since this is the case, I plead guilty!" ”
Boom, the audience was a sensation!
North American netizens who watched the public trial through the live broadcast also made a sensation!
