My Wife is a Counsel Chapter 31: Fight fire with poison

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of My Wife is an Archon!

The court in Bate City is somewhat similar to that in eastern China.

On the judge's bench, sitting high up was the powerful Lord Luo City.

Four white flag members were sitting in the jury box. The ones Lu Ming had never seen were Economic Luo and Dajun Luo.

In the era of cold weapons, the Luo family in the army was the most brave and skilled in fighting. The traditional skill of the Eagle Eye Luo family was scouting, and their ancestor was a scout.

But now, the Hawkeye Luo family is the most powerful.

The Luo family of the Grand Army is old-fashioned. When firearms were first introduced to the Western Regions, they fought bare-armed against the Musketeers of Bailu City. Many of their brave sons died in battle, leaving no trace of their blood. This may be why the Luo family of the Grand Army today is generally not as strong as their ancestors. Strong reasons.

Jiang Luo’s fat body with a small head looks a bit funny.

After all, Da Junluo is the head of the family. Although he is in his fifties or sixties, he has a loud voice and a strong body.

Only yellow flag members and blue flag members are allowed to enter the auditorium.

This case is quite sensational. The chieftain family is not too confused or decadent, and they also vaguely understand the meaning.

Although all small and medium-sized chieftains know that they cannot be in favor with Mayor Lu from the East or Fila Oil from the Imperial Capital, they still need to participate in big events.

The auditorium was full.

In this court, Lu Ming also saw Tu Gou and Ha Shan for the first time.

Because Fila Oil controlled the two witnesses and the victim extremely tightly, and others could not access them at all.

The native dog has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, a face like a monkey, and small eyes that turn around. At first glance, he is a cunning person.

As Liu Laocai said, Ha Shan is indeed not very beautiful, and her face is a bit old. In Donghai, she would be the kind of country woman in her forties or fifties, and she even has faintly colored hair at the temples.

Moreover, when she answered Charles' question, she seemed so simple and meek.

The look she looked at Liu Laocai was complicated, with a hint of hatred.

Looking at her, Lu Ming nodded, feeling that this was the good match Liu Laocai needed.

But seeing the hatred in her eyes, Lu Ming's expression gradually became serious.

Ha Shan’s hatred for Liu Laocai cannot escape the eyes of Charles’ legal team.

Therefore, his team of lawyers seemed very relaxed. After all, the evidence was conclusive. Even ordinary lawyers would not be able to see anyone if they lost, let alone one from the largest law firm in the imperial capital.

Both Western and Zhongzhou are the official languages ​​of the empire. Charles even made a joke. Before asking Ha Shan a question, he said to Lu Ming: "Lawyer Lu, I know that your cultural level is not high. You are self-taught and don't understand." Greyfinni language, so I’ll let you and I’ll ask the question in Middle-earth language!”

Causing laughter.

As expected, Charles spoke the entire process in Central Asian, and the translator relayed the testimonies of Hashan and Tugou in Central Asian.

However, after just starting to guide witnesses to testify, Charles took action personally. The assistant lawyers in his legal team found it incredible. Did the boss pay too much attention to Lu Qianxing?

Throughout the afternoon, Witness No. 1 Ha Shan and Witness No. 2 Tugou testified, and Charles guided them to tell the facts of the case that day.

Not only the White Flag MPs shook their heads.

Even the chieftains in the auditorium were filled with indignation and shouted angrily from time to time.

"Kill him!"

"Cut off his fat head!"

Even if Hashan is just a lowly commoner, being raped by a foreigner is still a great shame for them.

Lu Ming basically didn’t stand up to ask questions, but just listened quietly.

Beside Lu Ming, the assistant was a randomly selected affairs officer in a blue dress. For the first time, the little girl sat side by side with the boss behind a table. She was extremely excited. As for the roars of those savages, she was so excited that she Not even aware of it.

Beside the affairs officer was Liu Laocai, with an earthy face, frightened by the fierce and menacing aura of the natives.

……

The trial continued the next morning.

After the court session, Lu Ming stood up and said: "Your Honor, I request to summon Witness No. 1 Ha Shan."

The list of witnesses prepared by Lu Ming is usually a large one, including the neighbors of Ha Shan and Tu Gou, including the couple who planned to seduce Liu Laocai, and even included Ji Luo and Ji Luo’s guardhouse. The police chief and a dozen patrolmen were put on the witness list.

On Richard's side, there are only two witnesses, Witness No. 1 and the victim, Ha Shan, and Witness No. 2, Tugou.

After hearing what Lu Ming said, Richard stood up immediately, "I request to summon witness No. 7 Jingjie, who is a witness for the defense." He then said: "Your Honor, the defense did not cross-examine witness No. 1 yesterday. Therefore, I request to have priority in calling new witnesses, not to mention that the witnesses I request to call are witnesses for the defense.”

Zhongquan Luo nodded: "Witness No. 7 came to court to give a testimony."

Jingjia is the beautiful woman who seduce Liu Laocai every day.

After going to court, under cross-examination by Richard, the woman described Liu Laocai's character as extremely bad. He often stared at her like a hungry wolf, which made her very scared. He also made her drink wine and secretly Give her expensive gifts and so on.

He also said that Liu Laocai wanted to do something wrong with her that night, but she slapped him in the face.

So, this evil fire must have gone back to vent on poor Ha Shan.

In the auditorium, there was a buzz of chaos from time to time, and some people even threw stones at Liu Laocai.

"Your Honor, fellow jurors, I want to make it clear that Thorns is a witness for the defense!" After Richard finished speaking, he shook his head and walked back to the prosecution bench.

The members of his legal team all looked at Lu Ming with gloating eyes.

The boss said that this guy has a habit of stuffing many unnecessary people into the witness list to hide his true intentions.

But Jingjia was originally his own witness No. 3. After seeing her name in the other party's witness list, the boss removed the No. 3 witness from the witness list.

Fight fire with fire and beat you with your witnesses.

People who don’t know the truth will naturally think that your witnesses have said this, so why are you still quibbling?

Now, you have only one way, apply to the court to label your witness as a hostile witness, and then attack her confession.

Not to mention tiredness, the jury’s impression of you is even more difficult to describe.

Although, the jury here is just a decoration.

You even know how to judge yourself and others, two to two? In the end, the powerful Luo City Lord will convict Liu Shoufu.

"Your Honor, I have no questions to ask Witness No. 7. I request to summon Witness No. 1." Lu Ming stood up again.

Richard’s legal team is even more ridiculous, so are you giving up now?

You also know that rushing to attack the character of Witness No. 7, such as seducing Liu Laocai, will be counterproductive and will only make people think that you are quibbling, right?

Richard's eyes flashed with a strange color as he stared at Lu Ming and pondered.

He had played against Lu Ming, so naturally his assistants would not be so optimistic.

Ha Shan timidly sat on the witness stand again.

Lu Ming walked up and looked at her. After a while, he asked lightly: "Have you heard of me?"

Hashan shook his head slightly after listening to the translator next to him.

Lu Ming smiled and pointed at the prosecutor's seat, "Don't look at the menace of people like Richard. There are a lot of people. They are very impressive, right? I understand that you are afraid of them. But they are in front of me. It’s just a chicken and a dog! That person, who looked great, was beaten to a pulp by me and went back to his hometown in disgrace. "The direction of the finger was Richard.

Richard's face was as dark as water. The assistant beside him had already stood up and objected righteously.

Lu Ming added: "So what if Phila Oil, the mercenaries I brought annihilated his two camps, just like crushing an ant colony!"

Lu Ming insisted on using his own translation when asking questions, so Luo Yi translated these words very straightforwardly.

Richard couldn't sit still anymore and stood up.

Chongquan Luo has already banged the gavel, "Lawyer Lu Qianxing, what exactly do you want to say?"

Lu Ming turned around and smiled at Chongquan Luo: "I just want to eliminate some of the uneasiness in the witness's heart, so that I can guide her to tell the truth."

Zhongquan Luo frowned, "I don't think so, Lawyer Lu Qianxing, if you continue to intimidate witnesses like this, I will declare the case over and I will formally make a ruling."

Lu Ming looked at him and nodded: "Actually, you little city lord, if I really want you to step down, you can't sit in this position for three more seconds."

Luo Yi translated by himself.

Zhongquan Luo immediately turned pale with anger and banged the gavel. He wanted to say something, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "This is my last warning." After hesitation, he finally did not dare to expel the East China Sea dignitary in front of him. After leaving the court, Liu Laocai was directly sentenced to death.

Ha Shan stared at this scene in a daze, looking at the beautiful girl who should be a native like herself. She was wearing strange clothes, but she was even more arrogant. She stood in the court and directly threatened the lord of the city who was as high as the sky. .

The city lord looked so angry that he was so frightened that he just wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy right now.

But in the end, the city lord did nothing, but once again gave a verbal warning.

Lu Ming looked at Ha Shan and smiled, "Miss Ha Shan, you have never registered your property with Mr. Tugou, right?"

Ha Shan nodded lightly: "Yes."

"So, in fact, according to the Bobbitt Code, you and Mr. Tugou do not have a marriage relationship."

Ha Shan was a little confused and shook his head: "I, I don't know."

Many civilians live like this.

Richard has stood up, "Objection, this is a de facto marriage."

Lu Ming smiled at him: "Mr. Richard, this is Bate City. The place where we are standing is the court of Bate City. So, do you want to use the laws of the East China Sea to judge the affairs here, or use the local laws to judge the affairs here?" Regulations? ”

Richard smiled: "Of course it's local law!" He reached for a piece of paper and said, "Lawyer Lu, look at it. Do you think the laws of this country do not recognize de facto marriage? You are wrong!"

The members of his legal team were all smiling. They were obviously well prepared and the boss had already guessed that the defense would hit this point.

If it is an unmarried woman who is raped, the thugs will be less guilty and will not be beheaded. Moreover, they are more afraid that this witness will retract his confession.

Because you are not married, there is no adultery.

If a married woman recants her confession and says that the other party did not **** her and that she was willing, the two of them are guilty of adultery and may even be stoned to death.

But they are not married, and if Witness No. 1 retracts his confession, their guilt will be even smaller.

Lu Qianxing will definitely try to become unmarried, as his boss has long expected.

Waiting by myself, I started working on the train. Under the instructions of my boss, I did a lot of homework. Everything will be clearly arranged for Lu Qianxing.

Over there, Lu Ming took the piece of paper that Richard's affairs officer ran up to deliver and looked down.

Richard smiled and said: "One hundred and fifty-seven years ago, the powerful city lord Luo of this country once ruled that a woman's escape was an escape from marriage, and she was immersed in the river and drowned. The relationship between the woman and her husband was just like the same. Witness No. 1 and Witness No. 2 were deemed to have a valid marriage after living together for only three years. However, Witness No. 1 and Witness No. 2 have been living together for more than ten years. According to this precedent, they should be considered to have a de facto marriage! "

Lu Ming shook his head and looked at Zhongquan Luo, "The city lord from one hundred and fifty-seven years ago, whose posthumous nickname was Xiong, was your great-great-grandfather's father, right?"

Richard was slightly startled, Lu Qianxing, do you know this precedent? Then why do you want to be single?

What's wrong with this guy?

On the judge's bench, after hearing Lu Ming's words, Zhongquan Luo immediately frowned. Indeed, the city lord was his great-grandfather's grandfather, that is, his great-great-grandfather's father.

However, that ancestor did a lot of ridiculous things, and also provoked a civil uprising, and his reputation was very bad. Originally, there were only three White Flag members in that era, and they were all branches of his own family. Then, after the civil war, they became The status of the four white flag councilors and city lords is also much lower than before.

So, the ancestor’s posthumous name is the bear, which is considered the ugliest animal in the local area.

Lu Ming turned to Richard again, "Lawyer Richard, it seems that you have a deep misunderstanding of the laws of the Western Regions. In fact, the laws of many city-states in the Western Regions focus on written documents rather than precedents. Previous precedents , let alone authority, even if it has no reference significance at all, Bate City is exactly such a city-state."

"Nonsense!" Richard frowned.

Many lawyers from my law firm have come to the Western Regions to litigate cases, and it is common for them to learn from precedents.

Lu Ming smiled: "That's the fact, Lawyer Richard. It may be because most city-states in the Western Region respect the authority of you and your law firm, so no one has refuted you before."

"Furthermore, because our Kingdom of Grifenni is so powerful, almost all lawyers have accepted the education of previous cases from the first law class, and believe that these are universal truths and legal principles that are natural and right. Therefore. , almost no one would have thought that there is a legal system in this world that does not value precedents.”

This is indeed true. If I had not experienced it in my previous life, but had grown up in the East China Sea and been involved in its legal circles, I would not have felt that there was another reasonable legal system.

Lu Ming shook his head as he spoke: "Lawyer Richard, many of our lawyers are too arrogant and will not study the essence of the laws and regulations of other confederations at all, but I never imagined that you are one of them."

He also said: "The late Xiong City Lord actually did a lot of ridiculous things, and the cases he judged were considered to be more ridiculous and less wise. How can you take it as the truth? Thank you for your return Did you find this case but don’t know much about him? ”

Richard frowned and looked at Zhongquan Luo. Seeing his embarrassed expression, he knew that Lu Ming was right.

Looking at his team of lawyers, the smiles on the faces of the assistants had long since frozen. They all lowered their heads and did not dare to express their anger.

Lu Ming added: "Although the Bobbitt Code is a regulation thousands of years ago, since it has not been abolished, it is the supreme code of this country. It clearly requires both parties to the marriage to legally register before they can obtain the blood dragon god's Asylum."

"Lawyer Richard, you must not know what kind of **** the Blood Dragon God is. In fact, it is similar to the legendary Guanyin that gives birth to children."

"So, what the code says, it also implies that if a man and a woman have not registered their property, even if they live together for ten thousand years, they will not be protected by the Dragon God and will not have legal heirs. In other words, both parties are not legal. Husband and wife relationship."

As Lu Ming spoke, he looked at Zhongquan Luo: "City Lord, according to the code, Ha Shan is an unmarried woman, right? Or does the City Lord think that the Bobbitt Code is no longer authoritative?"

Zhongquan Luo's face turned green and white. He looked at the chieftains who were gradually quieting down in the auditorium, and finally nodded: "Yes, Lawyer Lu is right. According to the laws of this country, Ha Shan is an unmarried civilian."

If the authority of the Bobbitt Code is not recognized, the extremely conservative and paranoid chieftains are afraid that they will riot soon.

"Your Honor, I ask for an adjournment and we will continue in the afternoon!" Richard stood up again.

"There is still enough time, I hope the trial will continue!" Lu Ming smiled and pointed at the clock on the wall, "It's only past eleven now."

In February, near the city-state of Bate, the sun doesn't get up until eight or nine o'clock, and the court opens at ten o'clock, and lunch is usually at two or three o'clock.

Richard bowed slightly to Chongquan Luo: "Sir, I just came here, and I am not used to day and night. In my hometown, it is lunch time now. I didn't eat anything in the morning, and now I am very hungry."

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Well, hunger is a problem. Let's do this. I have bread for lawyer Richard. I think it's okay to adjourn the court for ten minutes. Although, I have been interrupted. It's very unreasonable to ask." As he spoke, Lu Ming looked at Zhongquan Luo and said, "Your honor, I hope you can be impartial."

Zhongquan Luo glanced at Richard and the others, probably never dreaming that Donghailu, the lawyer, had been listening to the plaintiff's fierce accusations all yesterday afternoon and seemed powerless.

But he didn’t expect that when he really stood up to speak, Fila Petroleum, which was said to have paid a lot of money to hire the legendary group of lawyers who are the best in criminal cases in the empire, was directly suppressed by him and had no power to fight back. He could only rely on Adjourn the court to stabilize the situation.

There is even nothing I can do. If I don’t follow Lawyer Lu’s train of thought and admit that he is right, I am afraid that most of the three-color congressmen present will stand up and directly rebel against themselves.

"Adjourn the court for ten minutes!" Zhongquan Luo banged the gavel hard.

……

Temporary lounge.

Richard was losing his temper and just threw a thick stack of files on the ground.

Hashan and the local dog were so frightened that they trembled in the corner.

The lawyers were even more silent.

Although Richard was indeed angry at the assistant lawyers, but more importantly, he wanted to scare the monkeys. He turned to look at Hasan and Tugou, and was about to speak.

There was a sudden noise outside, and then the door was pushed open, and Lu Mingshi walked in. Richard's affairs officer and bodyguard who were blocking the door were pushed aside by several burly men.

"What are you doing?!" Richard's face suddenly sank.

Lu Ming smiled: "Nothing, I'll bring you bread. In addition, according to local regulations, it doesn't say that during the adjournment, lawyers from both sides are not allowed to visit, right? Of course, you can ask Zhongquan Luo after the trial is over. If you complain, maybe I will be fined 10 yuan? 50 yuan?" He threw a paper bag on the table.

Richard's face was as dark as water, "Lu Qianxing, I used to respect you..."

Lu Ming waved his hand: "That's not necessary. I have lost respect for you since the Renault lawsuit was a child. I remember that I told you this a long time ago."

Richard nodded slowly, sat back in his chair slowly, and looked at Lu Ming with a cold look in his eyes.

Perhaps, from this moment on, he has regarded the arrogant and domineering young man in front of him as his real mortal enemy.

Lu Ming was completely unaware, leaning against the wall, twirling his fingers and playing with them with his eyes.

There was silence in the room.

Those assistant lawyers really didn’t know how to react.

Now, I deeply understand that this Lu Qianxing is really on the same level as Richard. Moreover, he behaves erratically and is eating Richard to death.

The clock on the wall is ticking.

Richard suddenly smiled, tore open the paper bag, took out the bread and ate it.

The assistant lawyers looked at this scene in surprise.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door and said, "It's time."

Lu Ming smiled and stood up straight against the wall, "Okay, Lawyer Richard seems to have filled his stomach. I went to the powerful Lord Luo to ask for this bread. I didn't even open it. It should taste good, right? There can't be any impurities or drugs, right? Lawyer Richard, if you get upset later, I'll have to talk to Chongquan Luo about it. Could it be that he is working with you to kill me? ?"

Richard snorted coldly, "The heart of a villain!"

Lu Ming smiled and said nothing.

……

In the court, because Lu Ming had not finished asking questions, Ha Shan sat on the witness stand again.

Lu Ming walked to the witness stand and bowed slightly to Luo Zhongquan, "Your honor, this court recognizes the authority of the Bobbitt Code. This is good. However, before that, I request that Harsha be pardoned first. , The sins of native dogs, living together without marriage is a crime in the Bobbitt Code. I heard that it was a custom two hundred years ago that if you live together without marriage, all your property will be confiscated. However, in recent decades, because the Four City Guards are relatively lax, Therefore, many people no longer register their property, but secretly provide some benefits to the guards to avoid being levied fair property fees. Speaking of which, this is also caused by the indulgence of several generations of the city lord's ancestors, so I hope that this The court pardoned the crimes of Hashan and Tugou, and also pardoned the crimes of all unmarried people living together in this city, and gave them a few days to register at the Four City Guards."

Zhongquan Luo nodded: "This city will issue an amnesty order tonight." The law does not blame everyone. Originally, Zhongquan Luo was still having a headache about this matter, but this lawyer Lu just gave him a step forward.

Lu Ming nodded: "The city lord is very open-minded and believes that Bate City will be extremely prosperous in the future."

Zhongquan Luo didn't know why, but he felt inexplicably relieved to be praised by this extremely arrogant young powerful man from the East.

And now Lawyer Lu and Mayor Lu feel completely different from when they first met him.

On the contrary, it was Richard and his legal team, why..., well, I can only say that the strongest among the strongest.

Lu Ming walked to the witness stand, looked at Ha Shan, and smiled: "Miss Ha Shan, you are an unmarried woman now, so you have complete freedom. Even if you marry Mr. Liu Shoufu, no one can interfere. , and don’t worry, after you marry Mr. Liu Shoufu, I promise to protect the safety of you two, and no one will persecute you. Do you believe me?”

Luo Yi was translating.

Richard stood up suddenly, "Objection, what the defendant's defense lawyer said has nothing to do with this case!"

Lu Ming smiled at Hashan: "Don't pay attention to him at all. As I said, he's a local chicken."

Ha Shan was stunned and confused. Apparently he had no idea what was going on. What did the lawyer mean when he suddenly said these words to himself.

But from the court session this morning, from his attitude towards the people of the Imperial City, his attitude towards the city lord, and his arrogance in going to the Imperial City people's lounge during the break in the court hearing.

There is no doubt that he is not bragging, he is indeed a powerful man.

Even the lofty and heavenly city lord was pointed at and scolded by his native maid, but he only dared to give a verbal warning.

Lu Ming looked at Ha Shan and said slowly: "Now, I ask you, you only need to answer me, are you willing to marry Mr. Liu Shoufu? Even if he ends up being jailed for rape, I think , he won’t blame you, you know how he treats you, so, even if he is convicted, will you marry him? He is about to be sent to the guillotine, waiting to be beheaded, are you willing to be his Madam, do you want to see him off? Give him his last meal and let him go on his way. This is the most sacred ceremony before death for us Middle-earth people!"

Richard had already stood up, "Objection, Witness No. 1 does not need to answer this question at all, because even if Witness No. 1 retracts his confession, the crime of **** has already existed objectively. If Witness No. 1 retracts his confession, we will additionally prosecute Witness No. 1 Perjury! ”

But after listening to Lu Ming's words and seeing Zhongquan Luo's expression of not knowing what he was thinking, Richard frowned slightly and sat down.

"So, are you willing to be the one who sends Liu Shoufu, a lonely ghost, to his final journey?" Lu Ming asked Ha Shan softly, "For that bouquet of flowers? Or that ray of light?"

With tears in his eyes, Ha Shan looked at Liu Laocai, who was sitting in a daze with a pale face in the dock.

She suddenly nodded vigorously: "I do!...I do! I, I don't want him to die either!"

Lying on the witness stand, he burst into tears.

Lu Ming could understand what she was saying without Luo Yi translating.

Turning around, Lu Ming looked at Zhongquan Luo, "Your Honor, I now ask you to pardon Liu Shoufu for the crime of rape, and allow Mr. Liu Shoufu and Ms. Hashan to get married, because according to Bobbitt's Orchard Hadith, being a If a man forces a woman to marry him, and he agrees to marry him, then there is no crime! In other words, the crime of **** should be forgiven. ”

"Although some of the hadiths of the sages of Bobbitt were not written into the Bobbitt code, various stories circulated locally reflect the great wisdom contained in the hadiths!"

"The first sentence in the opening chapter of the Bobbitt Code is that the hadith is the law! It is even more clear that every hadith passed down by the sage of Bobbitt has legal effect."

Some big and small chieftains in the auditorium have already agreed. They are all conservatives and attach great importance to the Hadith.

Lu Ming continued: "Now, Miss Ha Shan has agreed to marry Mr. Liu Shoufu, and my client, Mr. Liu Shoufu, is single in Donghai. His wife has passed away a long time ago. He is willing to marry Miss Ha Shan. Therefore, your honor, , I request you to immediately dismiss the charges against Mr. Liu Shoufu!”

Richard's legal team has already exploded, and they are all studying what is going on. Some are flipping through books, and some are quarreling with each other.

Richard said nothing, just sat quietly.

Zhongquan Luo hesitated for a moment, but looked at the chaotic and headless team of Richard's lawyers, shook his head, picked up the gavel and knocked hard, "This case is withdrawn! Withdraw from court!"

Liu Laocai opened his eyes suddenly, almost thinking he was dreaming.

Unlike in Donghai, after the lawsuit was won, no one gave him a warm hug. Only Luo Yi took Ha Shan's hand and led Ha Shan to Liu Laocai.

The chieftains in the auditorium were a little surprised to hear that Liu Laocai was still single and willing to marry Ha Shan.

Looking at Ha Shan, she is just a lowly peasant woman, but will she become the wife of a wealthy businessman in the East China Sea? It's incredible.

Richard walked up to Lu Ming, his eyes filled with contempt.

"These terrible and ridiculous habits? You have also studied them, brought them up in court, and confirmed their rationality in court. Do you know what you are doing? Do you know how many women there will be in this city-state in the future? , are you encountering a hellish nightmare because of your competitive spirit?"

"Although I lost, I am very calm and I am proud of it! And you, after returning to the East China Sea, can you still sleep well? If you can, then I admire you!"

"When the news spreads back to the civilized world, I think, even if I lose, I will face it with my head held high; you win, but you will be criticized by the conscientious media!"

Richard sneered.

Lu Ming looked at him calmly: "Take back your hypocrisy! If you lose the lawsuit, you have to stand on the moral high ground and seek self-comfort. Don't you think you are very pathetic?"

"Although I can't tell you, what I can tell you is that things will change here. The chieftains who are applauding this verdict will soon discover that this is not the restoration of the old tradition as they imagined, but The beginning of a new era! ”

"Eagles and sparrows never have intimate conversations, so, Lawyer Richard, I think our conversation is over."

"In addition, in this lawsuit, you did not lose because of some ugly stereotypes that you don't understand and are unwilling to understand, but because you never really understood your client and didn't know you at all. Hashan, the client, what is in her best interests?"

"You just want to defeat me and wash away your shame. You also want to send my client to the guillotine and get a generous reward. Therefore, it is inevitable that you will lose the case."

As he spoke, Lu Ming spread his hands and said, "Well, see you next time?"

Richard stared at Lu Ming, nodded, turned and walked out.

Looking at his back, Lu Ming let out a long breath.

To be honest, if it weren’t for my previous world, which is already in the 21st century, and there are still such ridiculous and terrible laws in some places, it would be difficult for me to find even a few clues from those hadiths, and then understand them. What does a hadith mean.

No matter how strong Richard's legal team is, even if the hadith is placed in front of them, they will not be able to imagine the mystery inside.

These stereotypes and customs have actually always existed in nearby city-states, but they have never been brought to court, and there is no need to go to court.

The city-lord courts of several nearby city-states that implement the Bobbit Code and have this stereotyped custom know that this kind of law is not popular, so they will not hear such cases, and they are all private.

I have pierced this layer of window paper today.

The conservatives still applauded and thought they would dream back to the Qing Dynasty.

Seeing them all clapping around him in a friendly manner, Lu Ming also smiled in response, thinking that it was the honor he deserved as a gravedigger.
