In the study, Boris yawned. He seemed to have lost interest in doing anything recently. Many of his old friends had returned to the southern part of the empire. Only he was still hanging around in the small county town of Wu'an, waiting to die.
As one of the few remaining Western judges in northern Xinjiang today, he actually received an invitation from the warlord Qi Huaide to appoint him as a high-ranking judge. However, he did not want to be a mascot to decorate his appearance.
I am also used to the comfortable life in Wu'an, and I think I will live here forever.
The phone rang suddenly.
Boris picked up the call out of boredom. There was a slightly magnetic young man's voice on the other side, "Hello, is this the call of Judge Boris? Is Judge Boris here?"
"I am, who are you?" Boris said lazily.
"Ah, your honor, I am Lu Ming. I wonder if you still remember? The case number 949447, um, the number starts with 949... it happened in 949, this year is 954, five years ago!" The man's voice
It was quite emotional, "I was twenty years old at that time and turned eighteen. More than a year after I arrived in the East China Sea, in 951, my twentieth birthday...it seemed so long ago..."
Boris stood up in shock. For a long time, he felt that his throat was dry and he didn't know what to say.
Lu Ming, how could this young man forget?
A legal genius, I originally wanted to accept him as my disciple, but unexpectedly he encountered a vendetta and soon disappeared without a trace.
When I heard about him again, I found that he was already a legendary barrister in Donghai, but his name was changed to Lu Qianxing.
But after seeing his photo in a law journal, how could he hide it from himself?
Then, this guy suddenly became a warlord of some special zone in the five Jiangnan provinces.
I didn't pay much attention to him. I guess he came from an extraordinary family and had many old connections to support him.
But after the New Year this year, the news of the wedding of the true princess of the empire was published in all newspapers and periodicals in the four northern provinces.
And the husband chosen by the princess is surprisingly that guy Lu Ming.
Subsequently, this guy was successfully elected as the provincial chairman of Zhenjiang.
Up to now, there is civil strife in Anshan, and it seems that this guy has also sent troops to participate.
It was a mess, and I didn’t pay much attention to it.
But there is no doubt that this young man is really scary. If I hadn't known him a few years ago, no one would have believed him if I told him about this experience.
"Your Honor, do you still remember me?" Over there, Lu Ming's voice was slightly surprised, "Your Honor?"
"Ah, ah!" Boris came to his senses in shock and opened his mouth, "Your Majesty, how can I forget His Majesty's heroic appearance?"
Lu Ming laughed happily, "Judge Boris is also one of my most unforgettable judges. No, there's something. I thought of you first!"
Boris's heart tightened, and he intuitively felt that things were not simple.
"Your Honor, this is the case. Ma Quanyou, the warlord of Sanyuan Province in Northern Xinjiang Province, committed inhumanity and massacred civilians in Songshan Province in Ansan Province. Therefore, I am going to use my private capacity to prosecute him for committing crimes against humanity!"
Judge Boris smiled bitterly, vaguely feeling something, and stuttered, "Then, if, if you think it's okay, just prosecute..." But he couldn't help but be curious, "Crime against humanity?"
Lu Ming said: "The empire has been at peace for a long time, so there was no concept of this kind of crime before. But now that the war has broken out, those military commanders, or the leaders who initiated the war, wantonly massacred civilians, tortured prisoners of war, etc., if it happened,
, it’s very possible, right? So, what should I say about the crimes they committed? War crimes? War criminals?”
"Your Honor, you and I both know that in a war, the loser will inevitably become a war criminal, and it has nothing to do with justice. So, if a demon who wantonly harms civilians defeats the whole world, is he a hero?"
"In view of this, the Eastern Alliance adopted a declaration last year that mentioned crimes against humanity."
"Now, I personally plan to file a lawsuit against the Ma Quanyou gang for crimes against humanity."
"Your Honor, this is another opportunity to be recorded in the annals of legal history!" Lu Ming laughed.
"Don't come!" Boris puffed his beard and glared, but he didn't feel it was funny. He actually seemed to feel a little warm in his heart.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Okay, no more joking, I will ask my most important assistant, Mr. Zhang Aming, to be my representative lawyer and go to Wu'an Court to submit the complaint. He and his team of lawyers will also have full authority to represent me in this fight.
lawsuit."
Boris had already guessed that there was nothing good about this phone call, so he said helplessly: "Can't you sue him in the East China Sea or Montenegro?"
Lu Ming smiled: "Sir, you should know that in today's world, the East China Sea, Montenegro and so on, and Northern Xinjiang are in different countries, so the verdict will not have much impact on him." He added: "Personally, I
Speaking of, and my place of residence in Wu'an, it is also legal to file a lawsuit in my place of residence. On the other hand, in northern Xinjiang, it is normal to file a lawsuit in a different place to sue the local governor for crimes committed.
"
Boris smiled bitterly and said: "However, the procedure is still a bit reluctant. According to the legal system in northern Xinjiang, if you want to hear a case in another place, you need the permission of the higher court. If you want to hear a case involving the brigade commander level, you need the High Court. To be precise,
Said, Qi Huaide's consent is needed. Otherwise, I will accept the case.
, it is also considered a violation. Regardless of the outcome of the verdict, if the other party's appeal procedure does not comply with the regulations, the trial will be declared mistrial immediately. This is different from the laws of the East China Sea and the laws of the Empire. The local courts of the East China Sea are the same as those of the entire empire.
I dare to accept the case, and it doesn’t involve any violations..." He said with a wry smile.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "I will find a way for you to obtain the authorization from the Northern Xinjiang High Court. Don't worry about that." He added: "Of course, I still need time to prepare. This is just a preliminary idea. I will talk to you about it.
Well, it won’t affect your rest. Sir, welcome to Montenegro as a guest. It’s been a long time since I saw you. I miss you so much!”
Boris smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, I am an old man. To be honest, I am afraid of seeing you!"
Over there, Lu Ming smiled happily and hung up the phone.
…
Putting down the phone, Lu Ming picked up the tea cup and slowly sipped the tea.
In fact, Boris's character is not very good, he is greedy and lustful, but because of his previous relationship, he and he are completely serious about the law.
Going to Wu'an to fight this lawsuit is quite interesting and exciting.
If he wanted to go, he would definitely have to make a big fanfare and communicate directly with Qi Huaide, so that Qi Huaide would also have to protect the safety of "Commissioner Zhang" and his party.
As for getting permission from the Northern Xinjiang High Court to authorize the Wu'an Court to hear this private lawsuit, we have to think of a way.
Ma Quanyou was arrogant, domineering, and self-respecting. He had many political opponents in northern Xinjiang and many people wanted to see his jokes.
You can start from this point.
And..., Lu Ming's eyes flashed.
Go to Wu'an, then, the dark force that killed the entire Lu family and hunted me.
I wonder if I can find out any clues by using my identity as Commissioner Zhang and changing my perspective?
It's also time to take a look at the opponent's cards.
Lu Ming was just thinking about it when someone reported outside, that is, outside the door of the RV: "Master, a man named Kan Santai asked to see the two Miss Kans. He was searched and he didn't bring any weapons." The voice was unruly and wild, so he was naturally a wolf-riding guard.
Although the hall was silent, the Kan sisters and Bai Narcissus were actually there.
Xue Zihan went to the city to collect evidence under the protection of the wolf cavalry guards.
Shangguan Yusuo went to walk his horse again.
While Lu Ming was thinking about something, Bai Shuixian and the Kan sisters sat quietly without making a sound.
At this time, after hearing reports from outside, the Kan sisters all looked at Lu Ming.
Lu Ming hummed, "Invite him to come up!"
Following a cough, an old man in his fifties came up from the car door. He looked very kind, but his temples were slightly white and his face was a little haggard. It was Kan Santai.
He was startled when he got in the car. Naturally, he could not have imagined that there was something special inside the car. The milky-white living room, the snow-white sofa, the blue crystal coffee table, and the transparent glass desk gave it a particularly metallic and sci-fi feel.
Then, they saw the Kan sisters who looked even more graceful and graceful in their light blue dresses with butterfly collars.
He immediately bowed deeply: "Two Bodhisattva empresses, Santai, thank you for saving me from the sea of fire!"
In fact, the Kan sisters used to be superior. Although Kan Santai was the clan uncle according to seniority, how could he fawn over these sisters?
Especially since the two sisters recently married Anshuai's son, in Anshan Province, they are like princesses, or even crown princesses.
Therefore, Kan Santai called her sisters "Bodhisattva Empress".
But today, for some reason, the Kan sisters felt extremely friendly and a little sad when they saw this distant uncle.
The two sisters came forward and said, "Third uncle, don't be too polite."
Kan Shouxi was the elder sister, and she reacted quickly. She wiped the corners of her eyes lightly and said: "Third uncle, come, this is my sister's favor, Mr. Zhang, and it is the third uncle who was rescued by Mr. Zhang. My sister is like a duckweed now. Where can I help her?"
Third uncle?" As he spoke, he thought about his current situation and felt ashamed to be seen by his clan members.
Kan Santai looked at Lu Ming and bowed deeply again: "Master Zhang! Thank you for your great kindness!" Then he knelt down and kowtowed.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Don't be too polite. You have sent us a lot of valuable information for the Montenegrin Army. Besides, you have no choice but to serve in the puppet regime, and you have not really served them. You have also spoken out for the people many times.
So, I didn’t help you, you helped yourself, but a temporary investigation on you is still necessary, and you were not treated rudely, right?"
"Yes, yes, thank you, sir!" Kan Santai said repeatedly, but his mood was extremely complicated.
I have never known what happened to the Kan family in Anshan City. Looking at it now, I am afraid that the situation is not good.
The two nobles who were respected as princesses now seem to have become the slaves of Mr. Zhang. They don't even count as side chambers, so what about the rest of the Kan family?
Lu Ming smiled again and said: "My coming is not a big secret, but I didn't tell the place, so don't tell anyone that you saw me. Of course, even if the news gets out, it won't be a big secret. It's not a shocking secret. You
Don’t be nervous!”
Huh? Kan Santai was slightly startled.
Only then did Kan Shouxi say from the side: "The benefactor is General Zhang Aming, Commissioner of Southeast Pacification and Commander-in-Chief of the Anshan Front."
Kan Santai was startled and quickly took off his hat and bowed: "Sir, this villain is rude, please don't take offense!"
It's him?
Faintly, this is the second most powerful person in Montenegro.
But he has always been very mysterious, his photos have never appeared in newspapers, and his job changes have been erratic.
In terms of actual official position, he is certainly not the second most powerful person in Montenegro, but depending on where he needs to be moved, he must be the most trusted person of His Royal Highness the Prince of Montenegro.
The two Bodhisattva empresses followed him, which was a blessing among misfortunes. At least, life would still be very good. You can tell by looking at this car. I had never heard of it. It was a car, but the interior was as magnificent as a grand hotel.
It's really eye-opening.
Moreover, as long as she can please Commissioner Zhang, no one will dare to bully her sisters in the future.
It's just that I have wronged the two Bodhisattvas.
Kan Santai was thinking wildly when he saw Commissioner Zhang waving to him and said: "Santai, come here, I just want to talk to you. You are the leader here. Tell me about the things here. Also, the Ma Quanyou gang is here.
crimes committed.”
Kan Santai's heart trembled, he hurriedly took two steps and stood aside politely, "Sir, if you want to know anything, Santai will tell you everything."
