“What did you say?” Shen Yan looked at the soldiers standing in front of the door with a look of disbelief. “I just went to the second day around the city, you said I was breaking the law? I broke the fart law … You at least let me know what the law is before you can talk about the problem of not breaking the law, right?”
“You don’t need to know, and the legal provisions are just a pile of disease-free moaning garbage, which can’t represent true justice at all!” The middle-aged 40-year-old man who took the lead said expressionlessly, but frowned in his heart. People are not easy … because he speaks with logic that is rare in the city, and usually this kind of opponent can only be encountered in the abyss.
“Did you give this man a purse with hundreds of gold and gold coins yesterday?” The middle-aged man gave up, revealing a tattooed face with handcuffs behind him and a wry smile. “Hey–” He greeted Shen Shenyan, who said that he was also a victim, not that I betrayed you.
“I’m rich and capricious, the local tyrants love to pay money, what’s wrong?” Shen Yan spread his hands.
“Bribe the staff of Zhengxu, what are you saying? The grass-roots staff is also the person of Zhengxu.” The middle-aged man glared, “You spend money to make him convenient for you, and have the best house in the best location, Not even paying, this is the biggest unfairness for the poor! Is there anything wrong with catching you? “
Shen Yan was embarrassed, no … he was concerned about another thing, turning his head to look at the tattooed face.
“I’m going, are you really a staff member?”
The tattoo face smiled bitterly and continued to nod. I don’t understand why you always doubt this? But how is your face mixed … Shen Yan is speechless now, do civil servants allow tattoos now?
“Well, I have only one last question-who exactly betrayed us?”
“… It’s Brother Tiger.”
Sure enough … No wonder people say that the worst is the worst, and the worst is often the worst!
*****
Shen Yan and the tattooed face were escorted to the city court side by side.
As he walked, he turned and waved his hand in the direction of the house, indicating that Michelle did n’t have to worry, he would go back and just go to look at the expression on his tattooed face to know that it was not a big deal. Can he survive him?
It might as well take this opportunity to take a good look at the judicial system around the city.
What Shen Yan didn’t expect was that the city court was at the end of a straight (slightly upward) avenue opposite the circle they passed yesterday. There may be some misunderstandings here. There is not only one so-called city court. Every large area or satellite city (gate city: a town built around a portal that leads to the characteristic plane) around the city has a city court.
They are almost identical in shape and are all circular buildings, with black and blue colors, blue represents law, and black represents solemnity. Unfortunately, this supposedly solemn court is now full of people!
There are many soldiers in Harmony uniforms, dragging one or several prisoners in their hands; there are big-bellied goblin merchants, waving the complaint in their hands, jumping their feet and cursing, several people behind him are trying to pull him; Black Dragon squats On one side, a few sparks spewed out from time to time, and the two pastors in front were helplessly blocked by magic; there were several magic mounds … yes, the little guys who came out of the mechanical realm.
Their appearance is like a CRT TV in the 1980s, with two feet and four hands inserted into the body of Fang Zhengzheng, and the expression on the front screen. These half-height devil mounds are waving the paper and pen in their hands, turning the horn to the maximum, and shouting exhaustedly, “Quiet! Quiet! Line up first!”
However, the team had long been out of the courtroom, and everyone looked restless and grumbled. When all the voices of the people came together, it turned into a huge noise like a flight of hundreds of millions of bees.
Shen Yan’s ears are too sensitive now, and some fear stops, and the people around him stop.
“Damn, there are so many criminals! Let’s wait, maybe we won’t be able to reach us even in the dark.” The middle-aged man who escorted Shen Yan looked at this angrily, his sharp eyes fixed on him The crowd in front of them swept from left to right, as if to distinguish between real criminals.
Well … Shen Yan began to appreciate him a little!
Along the way, all the soldiers met by the Harmony Society will take the initiative to make way and stand on the side of the road to salute the middle-aged man. It can be seen that this middle-aged man’s status should be quite high. But he is still willing to do this kind of job of escorting the little myself (Shen Yan said that he is not, but the tattoo face is), and came to the court to see the chaos and voluntarily queue up instead of using privileges to enter the crowd.
Using the same rules to restrain others and yourself, rather than the two sets of standard enforcers, deserves everyone ’s respect.
“This commander, haven’t asked your name yet?” Shen Yan asked.
“Atwood.” Middle-aged life said a name hard, without adding any titles and surnames.
Shen Yan’s hands shivered, “Oh ~ Good name, the person with this name listens to integrity …”
The tattooed face rolled his eyes behind him, your **** made me sick! Where is the name Atwood right? Isn’t the meaning of this name someone who lives in the woods? I heard that a robber named Robin Hood likes to squat in the woods.
Obviously this is not Shen Yan’s teacher, but the commander named Atwood who has the same name also feels that Shen Yan’s words are disgusting, and his expression is disgusted.
Shen Yan was very guilty, I heard that Europeans like to take the same name as their grandparents? For example, there are a bunch of Peter and a bunch of William, in case … forget, I will not retaliate against this person.
*****
The front of the court is crowded with people, and the long queues in the queue meander like the ticket purchasing hall of the Spring Festival Railway Station.
Seeing the sky change a little bit, Shen Yan couldn’t wait any longer, “It’s not letting people go to jail anymore!” He suddenly reached out and grabbed the metal arm of the passing demon mound!
“Attack! Attack on the staff!” “TV” Mozuzu shouted with his neck … he had no neck.
“Uh!” A sword was placed on his neck. Middle-aged Atwood looked at him coldly with a broad sword in his hand. “Let go! It’s a felony to interfere with law enforcement!”
“Wait a minute!” Shen Yan pushed the blade away and asked, looking down at the big screen of the magic mound, “You just let this inefficiency go on? Why don’t you call the number?”
“What is the row number?” Mozuzu stopped to call for help, and Shen Yan’s words aroused his curiosity.
The electronic sound clearly expressed the curiosity, the expression on the screen also changed, and the eyebrows widened. Shen Yan was amazed by this wonderful life form for a while before continuing. “That’s … first classify visitors according to type and severity, and then assign corresponding numbers according to different categories. When it comes to whom, just call the number.
This way, no one needs to be crowded into the hall and surrounding streets. Even those who are behind the number can temporarily leave here to do other things … “
“Number! Yes, give everyone a number!” Mozuzu shouted excitedly, “This is a great idea!”
He turned quickly, and his two long slender legs turned into phantoms, and ran towards the city court. After a while, all the magic mounds put down their work and turned to the hall. In a few minutes, they were already holding dozens of number plates and handing them out to the crowd … this efficiency!
Atwood looked at him strangely, inserted the sword back into the scabbard, and after a while whispered, “Good idea.”
“Not my idea.”
…
“This suspect,” all the mound mounds were busy, but the mound mound who had spoken with Shen Yan ran towards him again. “This suspect, in view of your great contribution to the city court,” Mozuzu put a number plate in his hand, “We are honored to give you the number 001, you will enjoy the exclusive change, The glory of the first suspect to go to court! “
Is this glory?
Shen Yan was speechless, but he seemed quite envious of the tattoo face … Then I would enjoy this glory alone!
As the number was assigned, the flow of people rushed in the outward direction, and Uncle Black Dragon swaggered away. Shen Yan and his party lined up and walked towards the court.
“It’s quite formal …” This was Shen Yan’s first thought to enter the courtroom. The audience was crowded with people watching the crowd. There were all kinds of strange races and was blocked by several guards; where Shen Yan stood Called “Suspect”, sitting in the opposite direction of the court, he thought that the devil justice with two horns above his head seemed to be still a woman; Atwood of the Harmony Society sat down behind the sign of “Prosecution”, and Shen Yan right The “lawyer” seat on the side is vacant.
Wait, the lawyer’s seat is vacant?
“Dissent!” Shen Yan snapped the fence before the court, “I need a lawyer!”
“Duang!” A chair fell on the fence and scared Shen Yan. The judge in the court lowered his arm and said dissatisfiedly, “Dismiss! Damn, Atwood, you can’t start soon!”
Shen Yan was stunned. This judge was so fierce …
Atwood stood up strangely, cleared his throat, and began to speak a lot. He Barbara made a big point, summing up that Shen Yan ’s behavior was bribery, and bribery was corruption, corruption was collapse, collapse was a pill seen around the city! Therefore, in order to prevent such situations, Shen Yan must be dealt with strictly and urgently! The best thing is to sentence him to life imprisonment!
Shen Yan, …
Sure enough, Atwood wanted me to die!
Then I saw Atwood leaving the “examination” seat and strode into the “lawyer” seat.
Wait, is there such an operation?
“Oppose!” I saw Atwood took the case! “As far as I know, my suspect is not inherently so. The root of all problems comes from the plane of his birth! If someone lives in a society where money is supreme, material desires are corrupt, officials are corrupt, and money is only for him He will also develop the bad habit of being arrogant with money and starting with money! It is not him who is wrong, but the whole world … Barabara. “
Shen Yan heard tears in his eyes, yes, it was almost in my heart! That’s it, I’m right! It’s all the fault of the world!
Judge Devil watched Atwood’s performance speechlessly, untouched at all.
After Atwood finished speaking, he finally turned to Shen Yan, “What can the suspect say?”
“Tattoo face helped me find the house, the money was the intermediary fee I paid him.”
“Well, the facts in this case are clear, and the verdict is as follows.” Judge Devil slapped the table, “Fine fifty, now you all get out of court, the next one!”
