Chapter 29 Softened
Meanwhile, in the most luxurious hotel in the city on King's Avenue in Tener City, Du Lin was sitting and chatting with Kevin, who was listening most of the time, and Kevin was talking.
"We use a slight amount..." Kevin stopped when he said this word, and he smiled and blinked twice, continuing: "We roughly divide criminal acts into two types, one that causes vicious consequences, and the other that does not have serious consequences."
"Generally speaking, most criminal acts without serious consequences will be resolved, and the handling method and sentencing standards will be directly decided by the judge in the city court from 9 am to 3 pm every Saturday. Most of them will be labor service for several months, no more than eighteen months."
"Those cases that cause vicious consequences, have a huge impact on society and cause serious injuries and deaths, or cause certain individuals, enterprises, and even governments to suffer huge losses will be selected by lawyers on both sides and then held for trial. In the end, whether the guilt is sued to the citizen trial team, and the justices can only be responsible for the sentencing standards."
"If the loser is dissatisfied with the judgment of the city court, you can appeal to the higher state court... Sorry, you call the state a province, you can understand it as the high court of a certain province." In the Kingdom of Guarte, they call the state a province, and the courts are also arranged from the Grand Court (City), the High Court (Provincial Level), and the Supreme Court (National Level). In the Yaoxing Empire and the Free Federation, they use the state at the administrative level of the province.
However, for the Guartes who love to remember the past, they still call states provinces.
Dulin said he didn't care about this small problem and asked Dulin to continue talking. He also poured Kevin a glass of clear water. As the most luxurious hotel in Trère City, let alone high-alcohol, what do you want? However, Kevin said that he never drank because drinking can easily make his brain dull. For a lawyer, a dull brain dull is equivalent to the countdown of his career.
After taking a sip of water, Kevin continued, "The State Legislative Yuan will refer to the advice of lawyers on both sides to conduct at least three trials, and finally a citizen trial team of at least twenty people will decide whether the final crime can be established. If the case itself does not have a special meaning, the trial results of the State Legislative Yuan will be executed as the final trial result. If the case attracts social attention or triggers a series of other problems, the case will be handed over to the Supreme Court of the Empire for trial."
"A little too much defense, and the one who died was a notorious gang member. Even the state court was unwilling to be harassed by such a case. Even if someone complained, it was only possible to be rejected." Kevin's eyes were full of smiles. The money was made so easy.
If it weren't for the fact that his mother had been in poor health and had not earned enough money to buy a house in a metropolis, he left Trenel City two years ago. As he overturned the case for a teacher's sexual assault on a minor female student, he had already gained his own status and reputation in the legal profession, and people kept inviting him to participate in litigation and defense in some cases, which made him make a lot of money.
Of course, from the first time he stood in court and did not feel any tension, the other party's lawyer couldn't speak, until today, there was no profit from any employment, which exceeded Dulin's order.
For a full thousand yuan, what if the victims' families say, "He has sold his soul to the devil"? If a person is kind and honest, he will never choose to be a lawyer. When a person decides to become a lawyer, he is destined to have lost his holy heart.
"Catholic Sutra": Volume 3, Passion, and sentence 19: He played tricks on his mouth and called the night lying as daytime. Every time he said one more sentence, his sin would be more severe.
Holding the cup and taking a sip of water, Kevin suddenly asked curiously: "Mr. Dulin, have you read legal books? Or theocracy?"
This question has been hidden in Kevin's mind for three days. When Dulin said special judicial vocabulary such as "submission" and "minor", Kevin had a feeling that Dulin was definitely not what he said, nor was it as simple as he showed. If he had not read legal materials, it would be difficult to say such a very important prefix vocabulary when discussing a murder case.
A considerable part of the laws of the Empire were copied directly from the theocracy, of course all lawyers knew this very well. After the imperial royal family overthrew the theocracy, a group of nobles who did not have judicial knowledge became the main personnel in the judicial department. Faced with a blank piece of paper, they racked their brains and didn't know how to write a set of laws that apply to the state.
I don’t know which big shot had a sudden idea, so they opened the divine law and borrowed many explanations from the divine law, and a considerable number of them have been used to this day.
For example, the explanation that minor crimes should be slighted comes from the theocratic law, "Children are still ignorant, and God has not given them wisdom. Even if there is a mistake, it is God." Those nobles may also think that it is not appropriate to copy them directly, and they cannot think of a perfect sentence. So they wrote on the first line of the thirteenth page, "Minor crimes should be slighted, educate and warn them of the correct way to treat others, and punish them with a little punishment."
Kevin's slightly exploratory eyes did not show any fluctuations. He played with the wine glass in his hand and shook his head, "Although I don't want to admit it, I didn't master the writing method of about fifty words until a few days ago."
Kevin was shocked. Most of the days he spent discussing what he would do next. He always thought that Dulin had received a good education. After all, Dulin showed etiquette and demeanor that Dulin showed was definitely not something that an ordinary Guarte could show. It was not until this time that he realized what Dulin meant, that is, he was still an "illiterate" a few days ago.
Kevin couldn't believe what he heard, illiterate?
How is that possible!
"I finally believe what the charlatans said, God is omnipotent!"
Faced with Kevin's long sigh, Du Lin could only shrugged. He could not say that he had a dream and dreamed of another world. He watched a born baby step by step become a big man, and died in a turnaround, and was taken away by a bullet. So at this time, he could only remain silent.
I don’t know how long it took, someone knocked on the door rhythmically. Du Lin and Kevin were both stunned. They walked to the floor-to-ceiling glass window at the same time and looked at a car that had just stopped outside the hotel gate.
Morris supported Nasha, and he passed through Nasha's armpit with one hand, pressing Nasha's weight on himself. The reason why the golden dictionary is a classic is that it is high enough, so high that many young people who drink high wine for the first time can easily drink too much and drink unconsciously.
"Do you need my help?" Nasha's "male classmate" came over drunk and still had a good impression of this guy Morris. If he hadn't persuaded him, then the girl named Nasha would have refused to drink. It was precisely because of his persuasion and tasted it personally that Nasha had a drink curiously.
The higher the wine, the more you will not feel any drunkenness in the initial stage of drinking it. When Morris opened another bottle of Jindian, the girl Nasha obviously drank a little too much. Maybe she felt that her companions would take care of her, and for the first time she encountered a highly high-end wine like Jindian, so she was inevitably competing with herself and was so unwilling to drink a little.
This also leads to the current situation.
"I've opened the room, I wish you a happy night." Morris patted the boy's arm, showed a knowing smile, and then took Nasha to the hotel first.
He is a regular customer here. A standard room costs only 3.9 yuan a night, which is not worth much to him.
Morris has a strange plot. When he goes to bed with the girl he likes, he thinks it is a very sacred thing. He never finds a place without a person like young boys and girls to solve the problem of hormone flooding. Going to bed is like a ritual. Only by completing every step of the ritual can he feel the joy from the heart.
He helped the drunk and unconscious girl to the room he booked. He turned on all the lights, put the girl on the bed, and then gently and carefully took off all the clothes on the girl and covered her with a cup. He also thoughtfully put a glass of water on the bedside table in case the girl suddenly woke up and had to drink water because she was too drunk.
Then, he took off his clothes, clutched them neatly with the clothes hanger, and placed them in the closet. He put on the bathrobe, walked into the bathroom, took off the bathrobe, and hung it on the clothes hanger in the bathroom. He faced a mirror, grabbed a triangle pendant on his chest with both hands, and prayed silently. It was the badge of the Catholic Church, and there was an eye in the triangle, which was mysterious and frightening.
After a while, he walked to the shower and began to carefully clean every part of his body. Perhaps because he had drunk a lot of wine before, he was also a little frightened. Whenever he closed his eyes when he blinked, it seemed as if the whole world was spinning. He liked this feeling, the feeling that he was the center of the world and the whole world was spinning around him.
After about ten minutes, he cheered up a little, put on his bathrobe, walked out of the bathroom. He glanced at the bedroom, and picked up the bottle of water on the table and poured himself a glass and took a sip.
Looking at the girl on the bed in the bedroom, quietly and peacefully closing her eyes, his heartbeat began to accelerate slightly. Just as he was about to go to the bedroom to have a big meal, something cold and spiky was pressing against his waist.
