As soon as the middle-aged couple finished speaking, the entire courtroom erupted in cheers. Some stood up, some peered into the room, some sighed, and all eyes turned to them.
A middle-aged couple, looking travel-worn, walked in, repeating what they had just said: "Your Honor, there's no need to adjourn the court. We are the plaintiff's witnesses. We can prove that Bo Jiangjiang is not General Bo Jichen's daughter, but our daughter."
Bo Jichen, sitting on the jury, narrowed his eyes, lowered his gaze, and quickly flipped through the documents at hand.
Jiang Si, sitting in the defendant's seat: "!!!!"
Without even turning her head, she lowered her eyes, stared at her stomach, and muttered, "What a freaking ridiculous thing! Someone claims to be the parents of this 3,000-year-old relic."
It really proves that saying: if you live long enough, you'll see all sorts of monsters and demons.
Look at us now, we've encountered demons and monsters. No need to guess, no need to think, the people speaking must be Jiang Si's parents from the Abel Galaxy.
Based on her experience reading a library of novels, the next plot point is a family reunion story, adding another layer to her character: she is a twin of Jiang Si from the Abel Galaxy.
Sitting in the plaintiff's seat, Jiang Si from the Abel Galaxy turned her head and cried out in a choked voice, "Dad, Mom, Dad, Mom, you're back, you're back!"
Ginger shreds: "!!!!"
See?
Reading more melodramatic novels can be helpful; these melodramatic plots were written by ancient Chinese authors 3,000 years ago.
As an ancient relic from over 3,000 years ago, I'm immune to this kind of clichéd and outdated plot. It's utterly unoriginal and offers no challenge whatsoever.
The middle-aged couple, weary from their journey, rushed towards the Abel Galaxy. Jiang Si embraced her, crying, "Sisi, my Sisi, my darling, you've suffered so much, you've suffered so much."
Jiang Si from the Abel Galaxy cried, "Mom and Dad, where did you go? Where did you all go? You won't come back. Everyone is bullying me, everyone is bullying me."
Ginger shreds: "!!!!"
Everyone bullies her, everyone bullies her. She's a pushover; everyone who sees her tries to take advantage of her.
Can't we be a little more creative? This damn cliché plot, she predicted it all, it's not fun at all.
Jiang Yuandao patted Jiang Si in the Abel Galaxy: "Don't cry, don't cry, it's okay, it's okay, Daddy's back, Mommy and Daddy's back, no one will bully you anymore."
Zhang Yuanyuan, Jiang Si's mother from the Abel Galaxy, chimed in, "Yes, yes, Sisi, don't cry, don't cry. Your parents are back, and we've found your sister. Our family is reunited. Don't cry, don't cry."
Ginger shreds: "!!!!"
They found her sister.
Don't miss this damn melodramatic plot!
Viewers in the live courtroom were outraged by the scene: "Holy crap, what kind of melodramatic plot is this? Our little prince and that scheming, manipulative woman are twins! No way! Please don't! I have absolutely no liking for that scheming, manipulative woman."
"Absolutely impossible! I don't believe it! I don't believe our incredibly cool Princess Consort would have a scheming, manipulative older sister! Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Bo Jichen Shang is cheating on himself. Who would believe that? I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I would never believe it even if you beat me to death."
“Look, ever since that person who claims to be our little prince’s wife’s parents came in, our little prince’s wife has kept her head down and her eyes lowered, not even glancing at them. What do you think this means?”
"This is meaningless. Everyone, please don't make assumptions. The young prince's wife cannot be their daughter. Absolutely not. I do not agree to this 'father-recognition' arrangement."
"It's not just the young prince's residence. Look at General Bo Jichen looking through the documents. Look at the way he's flipping through them. Isn't he anxious? He's anxious! He's anxious!"
Agares, sitting on the execution platform, narrowed his eyes and struck the gavel three times, silencing the noisy courtroom.
Jiang Si, from the Abel Galaxy, stopped crying and screaming. Her father, Jiang Yuandao, and mother, Zhang Yuanyuan, stood beside her like two pillars, protecting her.
Agares set down his gavel, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Given that the plaintiff has new evidence, present it and let the trial continue!"
Jiang Yuandao quickly handed the evidence to his lawyer.
The lawyer took the documents and submitted them to the highest enforcement authority.
Jiang Si, from the Abel Galaxy, gazed greedily at Agares.
The man sitting on the highest executive platform is hers. He has power, influence, good looks, and a strong physique. He has no fertility, but that doesn't matter.
Jiang Si's wrist-mounted personal terminal beeped. She flicked her fingers, and an invisible mental force shielded her from her surroundings. She opened the personal terminal, and Shu Xubai replied: "Soon, soon, soon. At the latest, tonight, I will be able to see my daughter and son."
"I'll be able to see my daughter and son as early as noon today, my dear zombie baby, aren't you surprised?"
Zombie Old Baby?
What terrible old-fashioned names these are!
Jiang Si tapped her light brain and typed, "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth," disgusting Shu Xubai: "Oh, my dear vampire-zombie hybrid tool, you'd better step up your game. I'm at the court hearing, and someone's starting to impersonate my parents."
Shu Xubai replied instantly this time: "I saw it, I'm watching your court hearing live. My goodness, tell me honestly, you really did transmigrate in person, not your soul, not your rebirth?"
“You really look a lot like that Jiang Si from the Abel Galaxy. Although you look younger and better looking than her, your facial features and bone structure are exactly the same.”
Jiang Si: "Go to hell with soul transmigration and rebirth transmigration. I'm a transmigrator. If it weren't for you, you old bastard, tricking me back then, I would have slipped and been killed by you. Do you not know how I ended up transmigrating?"
Yes, back then she fought this hybrid vampire zombie king to the death, the world changed color and the mountains collapsed. Later, she was tricked by this old geezer and died. When she woke up, she was in the future, 3000 years later.
On a desolate planet, she was found by the Mu family. She used a clever trick to take on the identity of Jiang Si from the Abel Galaxy and came to the capital planet with them.
She slept for three thousand years, so why did she end up on a desolate planet? Did she really fall into a time rift and have some kind of magnetic field instantly transfer? She didn't know, and she couldn't understand.
Shu Xubai: "You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask? You just slipped and fell 3,000 years into the future, don't you think that's awesome? As for me, I've lived for over 3,000 years, counting down the days one by one."
"Damn it, you stinky zombie, can you stop talking about such unlucky things? Just thinking about how I've lived for over 3,000 years, day after day, month after month, year after year, dying but not dying, living but not being happy, makes me want to explode. I want to destroy the entire Abel Galaxy and turn everyone into zombies."
Jiang Si: "Alright, alright, you're already thousands of years old and won't die. Can you stop being so childish and immature? All you think about is destruction. Destroy my foot! Think about your daughter and son. When they are born, you will be the one raising them, not me."
Shu Xubai: "Get lost! I'll take care of it for you, but you're just sitting back and doing nothing. You're so shameless."
Jiang Si: "Hehe, I just have a big face, I just have a big face, I'm shameless, so what, what are you going to do about it?"
Shu Xubai: "You just wait. Once my son and daughter are born, I'll bite you to death, drink all your blood, and stew your flesh."
Jiang Si: "Hehe, I'm waiting. You hurry up, I don't want to deal with these shameless people, they're so annoying."
Shu Xubai: "Okay, okay, I'll try to get there by noon. You can hold on a little longer!"
Jiang Si didn't reply. She formatted her computer and cleared the chat history. Just then, Bo Jichen's message came in: "Baby, things are getting tricky. Miss Jiang Si's parents did have two children, twins. One child died, and the other is in poor health!"
"They've been away from the capital planet for so many years just to find natural fruits and vegetables without mutations for their frail daughter, and to find the child who's gone."
Jiang Si raised her hand and replied, "Dad, don't you think these plots look familiar?"
Bo Jichen: "???"
Jiang Si reminded her, "Think about it again. How did the Empress meet His Majesty?"
Bo Jichen replied to the text message with profanity: "Damn it, why does this plot look so familiar? I've done this problem before, and I told this lie."
Jiang Si gave a wide, grinning smile: "So, it's all just a routine. Just wait and see, don't be afraid."
Bo Jichen sat on the jury table, looking at the message from his beloved, air-deficient eldest daughter. His heart skipped a beat for no reason. She told him not to be afraid, not to be afraid. These words didn't sound like something she would say.
She doesn't want so many people to know about her identity or her abilities. She just wants to live a carefree life, never rise again, just like that idle guy in his family.
After reviewing the evidence, Agares projected it onto the holographic screen, struck the gavel, and the courtroom fell silent. He then spoke indifferently, "Plaintiff, the evidence you provided—that Bo Jiangjiang is your missing daughter—is irrelevant to this case."
"The case in which Ms. Jiang Si, the presiding judge, sued Bo Jiangjiang for impersonating her and becoming the Princess Consort of the Empire. It is not about who Bo Jiangjiang is the daughter of."
"Furthermore, Mr. Bo Jichen, Bo Jiangjiang's father, has already provided her identity information. If the plaintiff has any questions about her background, please submit a separate lawsuit!"
Jiang Yuandao hurriedly said, "Your Excellency, I object. This is not two cases, but one case. Bo Jiangjiang is my daughter, and Jiang Si is also my daughter."
"They are both my daughters. I now have the right to suspect that the disappearance of my daughters was intentional on the part of General Bo Jichen. I request that the Enforcer approve the arrest of General Bo Jichen and conduct a thorough interrogation!"
Ginger shreds: "!!!!"
Wow!
Jiang Si's father from the Abel Galaxy, what a skill! Daring to drag Bo Jichen down with him, I admire him.
Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"
Oh ho.
Finally, Auntie doesn't have to fight alone anymore; Dog Dad has been dragged off the field.
Awesome, awesome, absolutely awesome.
Bo Jichen: "!!!!"
What a wonderful thing!
He was worried that his cheap, leaky eldest daughter was being eaten by someone down there all alone.
Now someone is trying to pull him off the field.
He's truly the chosen one; he gets exactly what he wants.
Sitting on the highest platform, Agares glanced at the jury and met the eyes of his teacher. Their years of mentorship and tacit understanding were not for nothing.
Agares withdrew his gaze, his voice low: "Plaintiff Jiang Yuandao, you will be held legally responsible for every word you say now."
Jiang Yuandao's voice was loud and clear, as if he were ready to die: "Yes, I am willing to take legal responsibility for every word I say now if it is wrong."
“Bo Jiangjiang is my daughter. She is my poor daughter who went missing and was stolen. General Bo Jichen has all the information about her from childhood to adulthood. I suspect that General Bo Jichen is the human trafficker who stole my daughter!”
Agares said, "Alright, General Bo Jichen, I would like to trouble you to step down from the jury and become the defendant. Thank you!"
As soon as Agares finished speaking, Bo Jichen stood up and walked decisively from the jury to the defendant's dock.
Jiang Si shrugged and patted the empty seat next to her: "Daddy, sit down!"
Bo Jichen plopped down on his seat: "Thank you, my darling daughter, I love you!"
In the live stream, the audience was speechless.
Wow, this is getting more and more exciting!
Bo Jichen is about to leave the stage; he's definitely going to cause trouble.
They just love it when General Bo Jichen stirs up trouble.
They get excited whenever he stirs up trouble.
Seeing him sit down, Jiang Si nudged him with her elbow: "Someone is falsely accusing you of being a human trafficker. Why don't you quickly refute them and get on the scene?"
Bo Jichen crossed his left leg over his right, looking relaxed and carefree: "What's the rush? The trial is all day, the plaintiff's lawsuit isn't over yet, no need to rush."
Jiang Si raised her eyebrows. Well, if the emperor wasn't in a hurry, why should she, a little eunuch, be anxious? She wasn't in a hurry either.
Agares then asked, "Plaintiff, what other lawsuits do you have?"
The plaintiff, Jiang Yuandao, said: "Your Excellency, we have only two lawsuits. First, Bo Jiangjiang is the daughter of Jiang Yuandao and Zhang Yuanyuan. Second, General Bo Jichen premeditatedly and systematically kidnapped my daughter, and when she turned 18, she took the identity of my other daughter and married Marshal Agares as the Princess Consort of the Empire."
Jiang Si raised her eyebrows, blinked, and then, realizing what she meant, lowered her voice and said, "You scoundrel, I always thought these people were targeting me, but I never imagined they were targeting you. I'm being dragged into this because of you."
Bo Jichen said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "You didn't expect this, and neither did I. I was just sitting at home when this happened. These sons of turtles and grandsons are always climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles if I don't discipline them. Come on, watch my performance."
Jiang Si spread his hands in a gesture of invitation, saying, "Please perform, please."
Upon hearing this, Agares asked, "The plaintiff is suing. Does the defendant understand the situation? What can they say? What evidence can they provide?"
Bo Jichen stood up, turned to the side, and looked at the Jiang family of three in the Abel Galaxy: "Jiang Yuandao, Zhang Yuanyuan, you say I'm a human trafficker who kidnapped your daughter and planned it all for a long time so that she would marry Marshal Agares 18 years later. The story is exciting and the plot is full of twists and turns, but what does it have to do with me!"
“My daughter, Bo Jiangjiang, was only reunited with me a year and a half ago. I have already submitted the paternity test report and the trajectory of my daughter’s growth on the desolate planet.”
"You say you gave birth to twins, but the evidence you provided shows that one of your daughters died on the spot after she was born."
"Since she was pronounced dead on the spot, and you see that my daughter looks like your daughter, you just say that my daughter is your daughter and that I am a human trafficker. You have quite the nerve."
Jiang Yuandao spoke with conviction: "Your Excellency, I suspect that the paternity test report submitted by General Bo Jichen is fake. I demand a retest, in front of hundreds of billions of live-streaming viewers and hundreds of audience members during the court hearing, to verify the blood relationship between Bo Jiangjiang and me!"
