Chapter 4: Court Opening [Edit]
Although it is called an open court, there are actually not many people present. They just opened a live broadcast room so that the audience can feel the majesty of justice up close.
011 followed the host and stood in the courtroom.
Because it was the first time he had seen such a scene, he felt that everything was very novel. He floated above the host's head and looked left and right, and suddenly noticed the judge on the stage.
[Chen Hao...this name sounds familiar.]
[Ah, now I remember. Wasn't this one of the guests Qin Jian disliked because of his unpleasant voice during sex?]
011 was looking up what these words meant in the human world while speaking in the encyclopedia, and he didn't notice that the host pursed his lips at this moment, looking a little helpless because he couldn't hold him back in his arms in front of everyone.
At the same time, the red-haired man, who had just walked into the room in military boots, heard the shout and his face instantly turned black.
He really didn't want to hear this.
However, after hearing the familiar voice, his handsome and evil expression relaxed slightly.
Regardless of whether he wanted to hear it or not, 011 finally encountered something interesting among humans and was very curious. [What is that person scratching? I think I only used the itching potion on Qin Jian.]
He recalled the plot and began searching his Wikipedia. "I'm really curious. This potion requires 36ml of fluid from the mother to be effective. How do they do that?"
If everyone starts itching, what a spectacle it would be. 011 Watching the fun is no big deal.
He lacked the human sense of propriety and righteousness, and easily guessed what had happened. "Humans are truly incomprehensible creatures. They need so many people to do anything together. Could it be that they're afraid of being alone..."
011 shook its tail, but before it could finish its sentence, the host covered its mouth with his hand while picking up something.
"Host, what if everyone discovers my existence in front of everyone like this?" He tugged at the host's hand with his paw and snorted unhappily, "What's so hard about talking about reproduction? You guys are so weird."
011 was just taking advantage of the situation this time, but he didn't expect that his every move would be noticed by others and lead to speculation.
The red-haired man sitting not far away moved his slender hand that was supporting his forehead, and narrowed his eyes to look at the gloomy young man standing in the center of the judge's seat.
Then I found that he seemed to be responding to something, looking in a void and moving his lips.
011 hadn't realized he was exposed yet. Looking at the host's slightly red earlobes, he felt that humans were more and more strange. He lay among the host's thick black hair and pulled his hair for fun.
[What is this?] Suddenly, 011's attention was drawn to the "little bug" flying in the air. He raised his black claws to touch it, but missed.
Then suddenly there was the sound of a hammer falling.
011 stopped and looked over, and found that the judge on the stage had already struck the gavel to indicate silence.
The courtroom suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The judge's face trembled. "The court is now in session."
"The Lower Third District Court Central Court is now conducting an open trial of the case in which defendant Lu Tai assaulted plaintiff Lu Sanchun in the street without cause. Defendant Chen Sanchun is invited to present the facts of the case."
…
As soon as the judge finished speaking, 011 saw Lu Sanchun, who was covered in bandages, standing up with a groan of pain and began to exaggerate how he got beaten and had his front teeth knocked out three days ago for talking too much.
For a moment, the scene was somewhat humorous.
[If someone didn't know, they'd think you, the host, had shattered his bones.] 011 scanned the human's body and saw only a few broken ribs.
He thought righteously.
The barrage, which was originally quite deserted, suddenly became a little lively because of this scene.
The plaintiff was beaten so badly that his speech was lisp. This defendant doesn't seem like a good person. He's gloomy and violent. I heard he even received an acceptance letter from the Imperial Military Academy.
[I heard that he got this spot in an unlucky way, otherwise how could an ordinary person like him with only a C+ in mental ability get it?]
What a shame! Young Master Qin was so gentle and kind, he was so close to getting in. This had always been his dream, but he missed it because of this scumbag.
The condemnation and abuse in the barrage did not affect the quiet and solemn atmosphere in the courtroom.
011 lay on his host's head, wagging his tail. He watched the judge finish listening to the plaintiff's statement and then said with a very upright look, "I have reviewed the paper and video evidence provided by the plaintiff. Does the defendant have any comments?"
They rushed to convict without going through any procedures.
011 thinks these humans have such ugly faces.
"Your Honor, according to Article 101 of the Interstellar Civil Code, there is a clear difference between intentional physical conflict and passionate physical conflict." The host on the side looked at the judge on the stage quietly.
He had the typical phoenix eyes, and his brows, which should have been soft and gentle, were now gloomy. "The plaintiff, Lu Sanchun, insulted my mother. My words to stop him were ineffective, so I had to resort to other measures."
Only then did 011 hear him mention what happened that day.
Unexpectedly, Lu Sanchun was so mean. He rushed over angrily and punched and kicked the host to vent his anger.
[I'll burn it bald once it gets out.] 011 flew back angrily, [Host, don't be afraid. I believe you can bring the bad guys to justice!]
It was clearly Lu Sanchun who did something wrong!
Just as he finished his thought, the voice of the person who ranked first on the list of 011's most hated people rang out in the courtroom again.
"My dear nephew, you're still young. Do you know that you can eat whatever you want but you can't say whatever you want?" Lu Sanchun smiled shrewdly. Noticing the approving glances from the crowd, he said harshly, "What evidence do you have to prove that I insulted your mother?"
011's cat eyes widened when he heard this. What a shameless human being!
"I will record every time you come here." Fortunately, his host was well prepared and his expression remained calm. He did not comment on Lu Sanchun's provocation. The assisting lawyer behind him took out something and inserted it into the light brain in front of him.
Then obscene words instantly filled the clean and solemn courtroom.
His host seemed accustomed to this. His clenched fists at his sides revealed that he was not entirely calm. "I was excessively aggressive and hurtful. According to the Star Law, private mediation is supported."
011 rushed over and rubbed the host with the tip of his ear, but he didn't know that the host was not as sad as he thought.
But I'm glad.
Fortunately, I was able to pay a little money and avoid this matter.
Just don't miss the first day of school.
Lu Tai inexplicably didn't want the red panda to be disappointed in him.
011 was very proud. He wanted to see what these bad guys had to say this time. But the next second he heard Lu Sanchun's red-faced stubborn words again.
"You're talking nonsense!"
Lu Sanchun didn't expect that he could do such a sinister thing without making any noise. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the look in his eyes from the lawyer.
The lawyer cleared his throat. "According to Star Law, evidence obtained without the consent of the individual is not legally admissible."
"Right!" Lu Sanchun was elated. He had already decided which casino to go to with the money. "And I'm not the only plaintiff. My dear nephew, have you forgotten how Young Master Qin got injured?"
His words caused a huge uproar.
Not only the people sitting in the courtroom, but even the live broadcast eye flew towards Qin Jian, showing the horrific wounds on his body to the greatest extent.
[? ? ?] 011 found it difficult to comprehend this rapidly changing situation.
In his eyes, this was like a drama. Just as the first two finished their performance, Qin Jian in the crowd stood up again. "Lu Tai, I don't want to embarrass you, but as a classmate, I can't watch you go astray."
Qin Jian no longer had the arrogance and domineering attitude he had at the beginning.
011 just looked at him and clapped his hands before opening his mouth and spouting a bunch of lies. "How did you get the Imperial Military Academy admission letter with your C+ mental power? I don't need to explain it."
The moment Qin Jian finished speaking, most of the people present looked at him with sympathy.
The sparse barrage of comments also increased.
[Ahhh! How did the young master become like this? I didn't recognize him at first! This civilian is so abominable!]
[Young Master is really popular. Whenever something happens, so many people speak up for him. Let's see who would still say he has a bad temper. How can someone with a bad temper be liked by so many people?]
[No...it's just a minor skin wound. Apply some medicine and new flesh will grow back in a second...Why are these people reacting like that? If you didn't know better, you'd think he just came back from the battlefield.]
[What's going on up front?! Being loved by so many people means our young master is popular! He's a heartthrob!]
[I won’t tell you who broke through the defense…]
When the barrage of comments started again, Qin Jian came on stage with his so-called evidence.
He had no idea that there was a red panda lying on top of his head, wanting to pull out all his hair, but because he couldn't touch it, he was helpless and furious, and finally could only throw himself into the host's arms.
011 covered its small round face with its claws, pretending that it was not upset to tears by such a useless thing, and only used its butt and tail to face the host.
The host seemed not to notice his embarrassing scene.
He felt the tip of his ear being touched by warm fingertips, and then the host's voice, which had rarely softened, rang out. He lowered his head and rubbed it against his ear. Both the tone and the action were a little awkward and helpless. "I won't die, don't cry, Yaoyao."
[I didn't cry!] 011 immediately sat up in shock from his dying state, howling and biting the host's finger, grinding it with his blunt teeth.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at the host, and saw that the other party immediately dared not look directly into his "sharp" eyes. He turned his head away with an unnatural expression, and moved his fingers but did not withdraw them.
She looked so pitiful, allowing him to abuse her.
011 was extremely proud, thinking that he had finally met a host who was afraid of his majesty, but he did not notice that the cold and gentle young man in front of him had gradually softened his eyebrows and slightly reddened his ears.
Everything reveals unconscious indulgence.
Feeling the wetness on his fingertips, Lu Tai lowered his eyes slightly to hide his complicated look.
He had never accepted anyone's unconditional intimacy.
Lu Tai could actually guess what the red panda was thinking, but he was not as fragile as the red panda imagined. It was just that the feeling of being loved made him feel a little bit addicted.
But no matter how much he wanted to listen, he inexplicably couldn't bear to let the little panda cry for him again.
The red-haired man who had been sitting in his seat and listening to the crying for a long time raised the corner of his mouth with a half-smile. He was still a little crybaby. It was quite pitiful to listen to him, even though it was not irritating.
He cried until his heart was broken.
The young admiral, his heart almost broken, watched everything that happened on the stage with great interest. He had a rather bad temper, and the more distressed he felt for the little crybaby, the less he seemed to want to care.
He thought so in his mind, but he still raised his eyebrows when he saw the message of evidence report sent by his subordinates.
"Forget it. It's annoying that the little crybaby keeps crying and I'm the only one who can hear it." Qin Buyang's tone was a little helpless, but his thin lips curled up unconsciously.
Why can't you feel sorry for him?
