Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 667
Member of the royal family Wei Lantai sat in the middle of the judge's seat, and there were three collegiate judges on each of his left and right sides.

The seat on the right hand side of the court is the people of the Oversight Office, and the seat on the left hand side is the representative of the Imperial Yuan Council.

Seeing this luxurious lineup, Xia Feng didn't know whether he should be happy. Obviously, he received enough attention, or in other words, the events he was involved in were important enough.

After the trial began, a collegial judge first read out a lot of court order and relevant rules for trial judgment.

Unlike the magistrates' court, the judgment rules of the royal court are a bit tricky. To put it simply, it is the principle of presumption of guilt.

As long as the Office of Supervision initiates a public prosecution and the Royal Court chooses to accept it after review, the defendant will be judged guilty. If you cannot prove your innocence in court, you can only rest.

If the evidence provided by the Office of Supervision is strong enough, unless you can say something that overturns all the previous evidence and convince the judge, you will still be forced.

Xia Feng stood in the dock and looked back at Wei Na.

Wei Na sat in the jury box with her arms folded, the expression on her face was hard to figure out.

After explaining the long-winded rules, a collegiate judge spoke to Xia Feng.

"The defendant Xia Feng."

Xia Feng immediately responded honestly.

"arrive."

The judge looked at the documents in his hand with a serious voice.

"According to the information provided by the Ombudsman, you hold a Victorian citizenship certificate, but when you were detained in the Royal Detention Center, we conducted a blood test on your blood, and the result showed that you were a severely infected person. Regarding this matter , do you have anything to say?"

Xia Feng was not too surprised by this question, ever since he was forced to draw blood that night, he had expected this question to be asked in court.

He won't deny this matter, because it can't be solved by stubbornness, and such a large source stone crystal around his neck can't be removed.

Facing this question, Xia Feng looked calm.

"Your Honor, I am indeed an infected person at this moment."

"Oh? Are you admitting to the crime of forging your citizenship certificate?"

"Do not."

Xia Feng explained.

"I didn't forge my citizenship certificate. My citizenship certificate is real. The date it was issued was 3 months ago. I was not infected at that time."

"Then when did you become an infected person?"

Xia Feng blurted out his answer without blushing.

"Just a week ago, to be precise, it was the third day after the end of the sword fighting competition."

At this time, Lawyer Kevin raised his hand, and after getting the judge's permission, he said.

"According to the research recognized by the medical community all over the world, due to different races, different personal constitutions, and different amounts of origin stones exposed to the disease, the degree of infection of the ore disease does not represent the infection time. It is still a mild infection, and a person who has just been infected may directly become severe, obviously, this is the case of my client Xia Feng."

Seeing that the judge and the people from the Office of Supervision did not refute, Lawyer Kevin continued.

"Xia Feng contracted ore disease a week ago. He was still a healthy ordinary person when he participated in the sword fighting competition, which means that his championship is still valid, unless the supervision team of the sword fighting competition finds out that he is an infected person during the competition. However, if that is the case, it shows that there is a major loophole in the supervision team of the swordsmanship competition."

Kevin's words were very tricky.

If the court does not believe that Xia Feng was infected with ore disease a week ago, it means that there is something wrong with the result of the swordsmanship competition, but the swordsmanship competition was hosted by the royal family, and Princess Verin even attended the finals in person.

If Xia Feng was already an infected person during the game, it would be equivalent to the Victoria Empire slapping itself in the face in front of the whole world.

Wei Lantai had a low-key conversation with the two collegiate judges.

"Well, there is currently no direct evidence to prove the time of your infection, but it is a fact that you concealed it."

Before Xia Feng could answer, Lawyer Kevin took over immediately.

"This is indeed a fact. According to the regulations, any Victorian citizen who is accidentally infected with ore disease needs to report to the local security bureau, cancel the citizenship certificate, and replace it with the legal residence permit of the infected person after approval. However, the regulations clearly state that the time limit for reporting is Citizens within 30 days from the date of infection, and Harpi, the city where Xia Feng lives, has the privileges of infected persons, theoretically it will not affect any urban order."

As soon as Lawyer Kevin finished speaking, Xia Feng nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, it's not that I didn't report, but I didn't have time to report. It was too sudden, and becoming an infected person was a big blow to me. I am so young and just won the championship. This is really disappointing. .”

No one raised any objections to this matter. The identity of his infected person was very hidden from outsiders, and no one discovered it during his stay at the Royal Academy.

Of course, some unstable factors cannot be ruled out.

For example, when he was working under Frido, many gang members knew that he was an infected person, including his single-handed destruction of the Blood Harbor gang, all of which are his dark history.

Wei Lantai and several collegial judges discussed in a low voice for a while, and then spoke.

"This matter is currently inconclusive, and the Office of Supervision will continue to investigate whether your statement is true, Lord Wami, have you heard?"

An old man in a black military uniform on the right stood up.

"I will send someone to continue investigating this matter."

Xia Feng was taken aback, Wami?

Until now, he didn't notice this seemingly inconspicuous little old man. He immediately knew the identity of this person through the address and reaction just now.

Wei Na had told him this information a long time ago.

Capewami, the current head of the Capet family, the inspector general of the Imperial Supervision Office, and Kahn's grandfather.

After knowing the identity of this person, Xia Feng's relaxed state of mind sank just now.

Capewami's attitude is so respectful because he is facing the king's younger brother, Judge Weilantai, but except Weilantai, he can look at everyone in this court with his nostrils.

All the big figures of the empire were present. It seems that today's matter will not end so easily.

The matter of the citizenship certificate and the identity of the infected person came to an end for the time being, Wei Lantai turned the information in his hand to the next page.

"Oh, there is one more thing here, Xia Feng."

"exist."

"A few days ago, you violently attacked your alumnus, Cape Kahn, on the road out of the city of the Royal Academy, causing him serious facial injuries. Is this true?"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Xia Feng suddenly gained confidence.

"I assaulted him? Fart! Oh no, I'm not talking about you, Your Honor, I'm saying that the person who reported it was a sham."

Afterwards, Xia Feng completely restored the incident.

There is no need for any concealment and nonsense. Although he does not know the law, he knows that he cannot be guilty of this matter based on his correct three views.

After Xia Feng finished speaking, even Kahn, who was sitting in the jury box, was speechless, especially when it was mentioned that dozens of people had never beaten Xia Feng, Kahn even looked away.

Lawyer Kevin took the call.

"Xia Feng's behavior is completely in line with self-defense. The right or wrong of a matter cannot be judged by the result, and whoever is injured cannot be the victim. Of course, judging from the injury of Master Kahn, there is indeed a suspicion of excessive self-defense, so I The parties concerned will make relevant compensation.”

Kevin sorted out the materials he had prepared in advance.

"According to the regulations on the degree of disability, my client Xia Feng will compensate Master Kahn for 4.4 yuan for medical expenses, 1.9 yuan for loss of work, and 8500 yuan for mental damage, totaling 7.15 yuan. If Master Kahn leaves scars on his face afterwards, we He will also inherit a disfigurement fee of no more than 10 yuan, but other than that, the Supervision Office has no right to pursue criminal responsibility for excessive self-defense.”
