Chapter 110 Published



In preparation for the trial, Friis used his connections to carefully investigate his "enemies."

As a lawyer, his professional code of conduct is to do everything he can to protect the interests of his employer.

…but his employer wasn’t Hal Smith.

Attorney Friis investigated Bella Bettivan, checked the images of this woman on the Internet, and even found her police academy classmates when she lived in New York a long time ago. Through a certain disguise, Friis pieced together the image of Bella Bettivan from many people.

This short-haired woman was abandoned at birth and never hid the fact that she was an orphan. However, she did not like to talk about her previous college career, a university famous for its archaeology, mysticism and history. It was not easy to be admitted to the popular archaeology department of the University of Michigan, and it was not easy to re-enter the New York Police University after dropping out. This shows that this woman has a high IQ and is very good at fighting.

In the eyes of her classmates, "Bella" has always been a person who is so righteous that she is a little radical. In order to maintain justice, she does not mind using some extreme means and never shows mercy to her enemies. She is good at fighting and always keeps herself in a state of being able to fight at any time - if she had not come to Gotan, she might have joined the official violence team, become a special police officer or join a more mysterious force?

After that, Fries received news from his informant in the police station - the informant didn't know that he was providing information for Fries and Fries' real boss. The poor and busy policeman just complained about work problems to his female companion and was accidentally asked more questions.

After the interrogation, Ms. Bettywin's clothes were always stained with suspicious dark red stains. After she left the interrogation room, those guys, no matter how tough they were, would become obedient and answer whatever they were asked. However, Hal Smith and others could not tell what Bettywin had done. After being released, Hal could only vaguely say -

"I felt my mind was affected at that moment. I was very eager and very scared."

At Fries' request, the warden in the audience stood up, but she looked cold and said nothing.

The judge urged Fries: "Defendant's lawyer, please provide evidence."

Since you said that your defendant was tortured into confessing, can you at least provide an assessment of his injuries?

"In fact," Fries smiled, "the defendant suffered no physical harm."

He still stared at the warden: "Ms. Bethwin, are you willing to swear to God that you will never tell lies in court?"

The short-haired woman raised one eyebrow, seeming to find it very interesting. Theoretically, the process at this moment was not in accordance with the rules.

"Objection," the plaintiff's lawyer, a young woman who was hired by Wayne to represent the victim, looked at the judge and said, "Please ask the defendant's lawyer to produce evidence instead of verbally inducing people who have nothing to do with the case in court."

Judge Meg Scott, who had always been at odds with the mayor, said before the chief justice spoke: "The objection is invalid. The defendant's lawyer's questioning is meaningful."

Then the remaining judges turned their heads to look at him, not knowing what they were thinking.

It seemed that no one came to stop him. Warden Bethven uttered a "ha" and said, "I think there may be a God in this world, but I don't believe in God. I swear to justice that I will not lie in the next questioning."

Hal Smith in the dock suddenly shuddered.

Fries smiled and said, "Ms. Bethven, during your tenure as warden of Blackgate Prison, did you often use violent torture to force criminals to surrender? In the documents I provided, there is evidence that you once tortured and crippled the previous warden, Martin Joseph?"

"Objection," the female lawyer said coldly, "The questions raised by the defendant's lawyer are irrelevant to this case."

Judge Meg smiled and said, "The objection is invalid. Why don't we listen to the prison warden's response?"

The other judges looked at him again, then looked at each other quietly.

The main body wore glasses and turned into the mayor. Vivi, who controlled the small account to become the warden of Betive Prison, had to think about it before she remembered who Martin Joseph was. Which player remembered which small boss was killed last month?

"I remember now," the warden said, "I did use violence during the interrogation process, but it did not cause disability. The disability was caused by the poor management of Warden Joseph during the handover of the position of warden, which led to bullying among the prisoners... So after hearing about this, I was very sad and began to rectify various irregularities in the prison with the toughest means."

It's really sad, why didn't they beat him to death?

As for the use of violence, that is normal. This is how her interrogation skills were upgraded in the early stages.

Hal Smith shuddered again.

Fries: "Thank you for writing these things honestly in the report. Of course, we cannot easily conclude that you, the warden, have used violence in the past and will definitely use violence to torture my client, after all, he has no scars."

[What he said seems to make sense...]

[The old man is about the same age as my grandfather, kind of pitiful]

After saying this inexplicable, self-contradictory remark, Fries walked forward, helped Hal, who was looking down, to raise his head, and stepped back towards the guy's camera. Hal's face was full of tears, but he had not cried out loud before.

"Of course I'm not talking about the physical injuries," Fries said sadly, "but Madam Warden, you used a new type of drug that can be excreted quickly and injected it into the defendant's body, causing the defendant to have a drug addiction and suffer psychological torture. He had to provide a 'customized' testimony according to your requirements, right? Do you admit this?"

Although audience members were required to remain silent, there was still a lot of noise in the audience when these words were spoken, and the post was full of question marks.

It may sound ridiculous that the police arrest drug dealers and use drugs to control them, but when you think about it, this is Gotan, there is a hint of truth in it.

"I don't admit it because I didn't do it. You're being ridiculous, lawyer," the woman said, crossing her arms across her chest and smiling. "Are you going to say that because the drugs have been excreted, a drug test can't detect any residue?"

"Yes, yes," Fries nodded sadly, "but this is not enough evidence. Next, I would like to call on my witness, Dr. Hadley Quinn, a psychiatrist."

His assistant handed the judges a certificate issued by a psychiatrist, proving that "Hal Smith" had developed considerable mental problems after being tortured.

Because of his mental problems and previous evidence, Hal Smith's testimony was obviously no longer admissible as evidence in court.

Friis patted the old man's shoulder gently and said, "Even now, the court psychiatrist who examined my client can prove that he has serious psychological problems. After Ms. Bethwin spoke, his condition became very bad and he had a serious stress reaction. Ms. Bethwin, you still don't want to admit what you did?"

On the bench, the judges were passing the evidence he provided, but, whether intentionally or unintentionally, no one passed it to Judge Meg Scott, so after passing it, Meg herself didn't want to look at it. She glared at the judges for a few times, but found that his colleagues were staring at Attorney Fries, and... their expressions were a little strange.

Coincidentally, the expression of Ms. Bella Betiven, whom he questioned, also changed slightly.

The witness summoned, Dr. Hadley Quinney, was a beautiful blonde doctor with her hair tied up and a graceful figure. She stood in the witness stand with her hands on her chest. After looking into Bettywin's eyes, a smile suddenly broke out on her cold face. Then, under the focus of the camera, the doctor walked towards Attorney Fries.

The warden said helplessly: "I can't admit to something I didn't do."

Fries: "Then may I ask what method did you use to interrogate him? If there were no physical injuries and no psychological oppression, why did he become like this and why did he admit to... a crime he did not commit?"

"Maybe it's because," the warden walked out of the audience and approached with a smile, "he feels guilty about what he did, and the guilt and anxiety overwhelm this person, so he wants to atone for his sins."

Fries took a step back automatically; the woman was taller than he was.

But as he stepped back, the woman behind him grabbed his suit, forced Fries to turn around, and stuffed something into his chest.

Then, the "psychiatrist" casually touched her chin and cheeks twice, and her already beautiful face became even more gorgeous. Dr. Hadley Queenie, no, Dr. Harley Quinn, the psychiatrist smiled and looked at the judge's bench: "How long do you want to look at the evidence? This old man is really a lunatic..."

Her smile grew wider, and she shouted, "...because I proved it."

Frizzle is going crazy: Wait, the psychiatrist he hired is an ugly girl???

The next second, the warden attacked from behind Fries and trapped her hands, but the ugly girl was a gymnast. With her hands twisted, she flipped over to the warden's back, intending to give the woman a back throw. However, the warden removed her wrists and trapped the ugly girl with a hug: "Harley? I remember you should see a psychiatrist, not here!"

Psychiatrists do not reside in Blackgate Prison, and Arkham inmates have a basic right to leave prison and see a doctor. After all, they are indeed crazy.

Fries, who had just reacted, reached out to his chest with shaking hands. No one knew what he would take out, but the next second after he took it out, a glass of water splashed on his head and chest. The one splashed with the water was Mr. Bruce Wayne. He apologized, "I thought it would be a bomb."

Fries clutched the wind-up frog and rubbed his wet hair.

The clockwork toy exploded, sending sticky syrup all over Frizzle's head and expensive suit.

At the moment of the explosion, the warden switched positions with the ugly girl and asked her to hold the syrup in front of him, causing the woman to snort in dissatisfaction.

After a commotion, this inexplicable incident finally ended, and the ugly girl was taken away again - the prison guards escorting her were all confused - Fries went to tidy up his clothes and dress neatly, while the warden shrugged and returned to his seat.

[Fuck... Although, that person is a mental patient? Are the mental patients in Gotan City so good looking? ]

[[Little Ugly Photo][Killer Crocodile Photo][Clay Face Photo][Black Mask Photo][Two-Faced Man Photo], are you sure about this upstairs? ]

[[Poison Ivy photos][Ugly girl photos][Catwoman body photos], what's wrong, is there a problem? ]

【…Fans go out and fight】

After the situation was finally restored in court, the camera turned to the evidence provided by Fries, which showed a Q-version ugly girl and a line of words written on a comic-like bubble: "Harley Quinn says you are all crazy, and the annoying bat is the craziest one!"

Fries was stunned and panicked: "No, that's not what I offer..."

"Whatever you offer, counsel," Justice Amy Schiest said, "are you trying to use the words of a mentally ill person to prove that our defendant is mentally ill?"

She was like, Are you crazy?

There were chuckles in the audience, and Friis was irritated. His opponent, the plaintiff's lawyer, nodded and said, "I request that my witness be called to the stand."

"My witness lives in South Hinckley and was personally involved in the mine explosion. He is commonly known as the Frozen Man."

Regardless of the court process, Frizzle interrupted and said, "If I remember correctly, the Frozen Man is a fugitive."

"You want to use the testimony of a criminal to prove that the person I'm defending is a criminal?"
