Duke of Herrington

Chapter 152 Strange!Awesome!
"Okay, the trouble is over, and now it's up to you! After you return to the previous refugee camp, you can play freely, as long as you abide by the laws of the Sun God Sect, abide by the local laws, and do not disturb the normal functioning of society. Next, try your best to win over the believers! Remember, don't use violence!"

When Ted mentioned 'violent means', he specifically emphasized his tone, and repeatedly urged: "Everyone, do you understand?"

Believers certainly understand this truth!Now, they want to unite all forces that can and are worth uniting: "Understood! Archbishop!"

Next, there are weapons aimed at the believers.
Ted pointed to the 'burning sticks' in everyone's hands, and reminded with a smile: "Because you haven't passed the firearms assessment test, I will temporarily take back the weapons in your hands for safekeeping! The law enforcement agencies must pass the assessment as soon as possible! I don't want to see You hold big knives and protect everyone like primitive people!"

"Yes, Archbishop!"

"Return!"

In the end, only more than 100 people were left at the scene to deal with the scene and recover some valuable metals, while the others all retreated back to the city.

Ted didn't sleep well yesterday. After returning to Valentine, he couldn't fall asleep in time even though he was very sleepy because the coffee was not over yet!

"Chris, I haven't closed my eyes after a busy day and night. I drank too much coffee. Now I want to sleep but can't. What can you do?"

Chris put down the documents in his hands, and the picture was still for about ten seconds before he thought of a wonderful place: "My lord, if you can't fall asleep, you can go to the civil court to listen. Let you sleep uncomfortable, today's executive judge is an old man with a calm tone, who has been a judge for 20 years before this. After learning the new law, he will continue to do his old job."

As he said that, Chris remembered the 'study room' on the second floor, and reminded him: "Oh, by the way, my lord, if you really want to listen, you can go to the second floor of the court, where there is a hidden auditorium The seat is specially for the students to observe, when I have nothing to do, I will go there to take a nap in the afternoon."

"Well, if that's the case, then I'll go and listen."

The tree-flavored coffee that Ted drank just now was indeed more than a billion points, and it still didn't arouse even a single drowsiness, which made his mind still in a daze.
In the courtroom, inside the hidden auditorium on the second floor.

There is no one in the room, it is very suitable for sleeping
However, just when he took out his pillow and was about to listen to white noise to sleep, Ted saw a farmer holding a sheep standing in the courtroom with question marks on his face and looking at the judge. The defendant should be on the other side. A well-dressed man, at the moment he also looked confused.
So... the drowsiness that had just been awakened was completely blown away by this strange lineup.

"Open court!"

Immediately afterwards, the judge read out the fixed opening remarks, and then introduced the plaintiff and defendant, as well as an overview of the case.

Finally, he turned to the plaintiff and asked, "Plaintiff, do you have anything to say before the trial begins?"

"My lord, I got the right to use a piece of land for 200 years because of the lord's favor. Now I have opened a large ranch, and my life is getting better and better. But until 3 days ago, I found out that my neighbor , Mr. Galen, when he came to buy meat, he conspired against a ewe in the farm! He even took action! I think this kind of behavior is disgusting, so I caught the bag on the spot! I found you and let you give a review! "

Although the words described by the plaintiff are already very vague, everyone is not a fool!Besides, they have a strong longing for Sansu, so when they said it, everyone had already guessed what happened.
The judge had studied this case for a whole day before, even though he searched through the criminal law, he could not find the means of punishment. This also made this judge who has been practicing for 20 years be at a loss for the first time!
So, he aimed at the defendant on the other side: "Defendant, do you have anything to say?"

"My lord, I firmly believe that the court is fair. My family has also opened a barbecue restaurant with the favor of the lord, and the business is not bad. However, I don't like humanoid creatures or intelligent creatures. I only love free lambs. There is a soft spot, I think they will eventually be eaten even if they are livestock! They should have the right to love until then!"

Hearing this explanation, all the audience who came to hear the trial covered their mouths, wanting to laugh but not daring
The members of the National Guard on the jury and the practicing judges also sullenly disagreed with this absurd statement.
Now, Mr. Judge is the only one who is in trouble. He is a person who abides by the law and knows how to do things according to the law. He is also a paranoid and has an almost abnormal respect for the law.

But even so, he really didn't know how to convict this matter.

If you judge a sheep as a human being, it is a bit too much, and if you judge a sheep as a dead thing, it is a bit wrong, because it is a living thing, and this is contrary to the law that everything has a spirit .
"Well..." Looking at this wonderful case, the judge fell into deep thought.

In order to avoid a strange case that was laughed at in his career, with a serious and serious attitude, he said helplessly: "The judge announced that the court will be temporarily adjourned for 15 minutes!"

Things are getting interesting and everyone wants to see how the judge handles it, and more importantly, how the jury will vote
And when everyone adjourned, the judge really asked the jury members for help with the documents, but even so, the others didn't know how to decide the case.

Before he knew it, 15 minutes had passed, and he seemed to have an idea!
Court again!
After the boring cutscenes and the reading of the detailed description and motive of the case, the judge pronounced the charges.

"This court announces! Because the defendant has triggered the crime of QJ, possession and destruction of other people's property without permission, and the circumstances are serious, the defendant is sentenced to 6 months in prison! A fine of 90 silver coins is imposed!"

"Plaintiff and defendant, do you have any objections?"

The plaintiff's eyes widened, and he hesitated and pleaded with the judge: "My lord, I just want him to buy this sheep, and I don't want to send him to prison, because I uphold the lord's peace and well-being to raise sheep, and I have no choice but to let him buy the sheep." The purpose of slaughtering is painful, sheep that have been molested must not be happy! The quality of the meat will not be delicious! That’s all”

Seeing that he was going to be sent to the quarry to work without pay for 6 months, the defendant instantly fainted, and wept bitterly about the love between him and the sheep: "Your Honor, Momo and I really love each other, it's just a matter of race. Separate us, why can humans marry other races, but cannot spend their lives hand in hand with sheep! It's not fair!"

In the auditorium on the second floor, Ted covered his face and silently watched this absurd scene in the corner.

This persistent judge firmly believes that his sentence is fine, and has implemented the principle that all crimes should be treated more severely. He can give a life sentence, but he will never give him a 150-year sentence!
In this situation, the defendant is going to appeal, even if the judge in front of him will dismiss it, he still has to try: "Your Honor, I want to appeal and request a retrial!"

"Dismiss the appeal request!"

Now, Ted couldn't help it anymore. If this person went to prison for committing a crime against an animal today, it would definitely become the laughing stock of people all over the world!

Ted quickly poked his head out from the second floor and stopped the case trial: "Hey! Please stop for a moment!"

"My lord!?" The judge put on his glasses, looked up and saw Ted staring at him helplessly upstairs.

As soon as they heard that the lord was coming, all the people present cheered up. They all wanted to see how the lawmakers would handle this funny case.

The members of the law-making group that Ted borrowed from were all staunch atheists, so they never considered plotting against certain animals, which would offend the wrath of God!
In addition, Ted's lazy cancer committed a crime. He only considered the intelligent biological group, and used it with a slight modification according to the law.
"Ahem. Mr. Judge, don't you think your punishment is a bit heavy?"

"Well, my lord, I don't think the penalty is too heavy. According to the law on items and humanoid creatures, we have adopted a compromise method. I think this penalty is very reasonable."

The judge's thinking is still stuck in the old society and has not yet fully integrated with the new era, so Ted exported his ideas to everyone again, and he quickly walked up the stairs to the inside of the court to express his views
"There is no compromise in the law. This is a loophole. I can stand up and fix it now! After all, I am one of the makers of the law and have the right to amend the law. As long as it is signed by other judges, the law can be passed directly! The process usually takes no more than 3 hours.”

In the end, the judges only acted according to the rules. If there was such a rule in the rules, everyone would not have to worry about it. At the same time, the audience also saw the birth of a new law!
Although a bit absurd, it is also a long time to see!There are not many such opportunities.

"My lord, if you have a better way, please let me know. We don't know what to do. It's not that we can't be flexible, but to implement the truth-seeking and pragmatic attitude. This is the charm of the law. where."

"Indeed, that's why I came here!"

With that said, Ted turned to look at the serious-looking jury and the melon-eaters behind him.

"Everyone, my next question will not become a confession in any case, please answer truthfully"

"Dare to ask everyone here, if you have a dog at home, raise your hand."

The people in the north, every family is a hunter, there is almost no one, they lead the dog and go to the woods to catch rabbits no matter what.
so!Dogs have become the standard equipment for people in the northern border. Ted has more than 20 dogs in his own family. Every Northerner will have 1.8 dogs
As soon as this question was asked, everyone present raised their hands. The only one who didn't raise their hands was the judge behind him. Recently, because his son got married, he took away two dogs from the family. He was going to buy some from someone else's house. , but he is a judge, for the sake of truth and rigor, he didn't raise his hand.

In the eyes of others, the reason your Honor didn't raise his hand was because he was a judge, and everyone ignored him tactically.

Ted continued to ask: "So, have you done any intimate actions with dogs that contain love, including but not limited to kissing the dog's forehead, stroking the belly, brushing and bathing, etc."

"Raise your hand if you've done it?"

At the scene, it was still a unanimous vote!

After getting the result, Ted turned to look at the judge: "Excuse me, judge, have you ever done intimate behavior with a dog?"

"It did."

"Then according to your punishment, almost all the people from the northern border have committed Wei Wei's crimes and will have to spend half a year in prison."

"This"

Before the judge could continue to answer, Ted turned to look at other citizens: "There are loopholes in the law. In such a controversial situation, you can write a letter of proposal to Mayor Chris, and he will respond within 24 to 72 hours of receiving the letter." Solve the problem"

"And now, on behalf of the legal department, I am writing a proposal on the spot. The judge, the jury, and all the staff and staff present here, because you represent the thoughts of the majority of people in the northern border. If you think it is okay, then I will You can personally hand over the letter to the legal department, and within 3 hours, add this law to the constitution."

"Everyone, do you have any objections?"

There was no sound from Yaque at the scene. They had never had such close contact with the lord Lord.

From this point of view, he is a reasonable and kind person, and the dark circles around his eyes are the proof that he has worked hard for the people!Surely he wasn't lying!

Even if it was a lie, he would definitely not boast in front of so many people!

"Since you have no objection, keep silent. I will take it as your acquiescence!"

Immediately afterwards, Ted pulled out a bottle of milk from his satchel.
"Everyone, did you drink milk this morning?"

"Drink!"

"Then, have you ever thought about how the first warrior who drank milk drank it?"

Even if that warrior drank from a bowl, it doesn't matter how many bowls of noodles he ate under Ted's eccentric mood
"Puff. Hahaha!"

The laughter at the scene lasted for nearly 2 minutes before it stopped. Even the stern judge covered his mouth to hide his expression.

The same is true for the jury. Many of them took off their hats to hide their faces from others.
"The answer is self-evident, so let's skip this one for the time being, and wait until the end!"

"Now, let me make a hypothesis for everyone. Suppose this sheep has an IQ and can talk. If she is asked to choose one of the plaintiff and the defendant to follow, how will she choose?"

"According to the northern proverb, if you can live decently, don't commit suicide! No matter what the defendant did to the sheep, he is gentler than the plaintiff. Because the plaintiff will send her to the slaughterhouse to make lamb chops, and Defendant just did something that seemed immoral"

At this time, a 2B raised his hand: "But my lord, if I were that sheep and suffered such treatment, I would definitely kill myself!"

No matter what era, there will always be such a bully, and Ted has long been used to it.

"Because you have taken the perspective of the strong. If you have taken the perspective of the weak animal, you will not think so. Go back and read the book carefully, and you will have the answer."

"Thank you sir for pointing out the maze"

Fortunately, Ted is the boss of this area, his words are the final interpretation, and he is never afraid of being questioned.

After such an explanation, everyone has an answer in their hearts.

so!Ted spoke his mind directly.

"I suggest that in addition to the crimes against humanoid creatures, the criminal law should also subdivide animals"

"Divide animals into three categories. The first category is intelligent monsters, whose IQ is not inferior to that of humans! If they join our northern border and abide by the law, they will automatically obtain 'citizenship'! Hurting them is equivalent to hurting humanoid intelligent creatures There is one in my family, and so are the tree people outside the city~"

"The second is pets. We will introduce laws to criminalize pet abuse and killing, impose community labor and high fines to stop such crimes. Of course, you can still caress dogs as usual, it is not illegal"

"The third is livestock or other creatures that can be eaten. We will make a specific list, so don't worry."

"A third category of animals would be classed as property, and harming them is tantamount to destroying someone else's property"

"So, for the defendant's sentencing, I suggest the following reference."

"Because the defendant did not forcibly occupy other people's property, but only concealed the use of the owner's items. It caused irreversible damage to the plaintiff's property. According to the northern law, you need to buy this sheep and be fined 10 silver coins , and 100 hours of unpaid community labor, which need to be completed within three months, Mr. Judge, do you have any objection?"

"No objection, my lord"

"Did the jury disagree?"

"No."

"Do you think this sentence is reasonable? If you think it is reasonable, I will seal this case as a classic case and add legal provisions at the same time."

The melon-eating people present also nodded and said that there is nothing wrong with this law. Besides, the laws in the northern border are generally re-introduced, destroying other people’s property, and the share is small. It is reasonable to be sentenced to 100 hours of community labor!

"Very reasonable!"

"Then it's settled! You handle the rest of the matter, and I'll handle the law, how about it?"

"No problem, my lord, the jury and I are willing to accept supervision from the people of the northern border!"

"I'll see you in the newspaper tomorrow~ It's definitely a sensation in the entire northern border!"

At the same time, the defendant paid the money and took the sheep 'Mu Mu' to wait for the final sentence, and the sheep beside him also started to cuddle and cling to this man
It's hard not to wonder what happened between them.
In short, this sheep can live to die. Compared with other sheep, she is very lucky
