Alchemy Greater China

"Is there such a rule?"

The bailiff leader frowned uneasily and asked back.

"Wait... ah, I found it! Here, I read, according to the six special clauses of 1874 signed by the British Empire and the Commonwealth in 360... there is such a one, but it is too remote, basically no People will use it!" A legal consultant in the judicial police team searched for a long time, and finally found the source of the regulations with the assistance of Long Hao's attendants: "Captain, the Earl of Beihai, should be the first person to use this clause !"

"Hmph, let's go! But I advise you, count, it's useless for you to delay like this!"

The blue-faced bailiff leader raised his hand angrily, signaling to close the team.

"Is it useless?"

Seeing the judicial police team that had returned in vain go away, Long Hao turned his head and smiled at Yuan'er: "If it wasn't like this, why would the other party show an ugly look? Hehe..."

On May 25, Long Hao's special appeal was accepted by the jury, and the state court opened its doors again to retry the case.

At this time, great changes have taken place in the United States!

Many ugly-looking forces are on the verge of getting out of control, especially after learning that the Morgan consortium raided a branch of the Beauty Company in Chicago and obtained three large boxes of gold worth nearly tens of millions of dollars. .

Even John Rockefeller, who faintly felt that something was wrong, couldn't control such a situation, so he could only let it go. He also urged his subordinates to speed up the collection of the warehouses and offices of the Meihao Chemical Plant in the eastern United States, and the recruitment of the chemical workers who worked for Li Bixie. engineer.

About a dozen divisions of the Federal Army have rushed into the four western states and forcibly controlled the governments of each state capital.

In addition, radical white supremacy organizations have also committed heinous atrocities: in Scampo, Washington State.There was a tragedy in which thirteen members of a Chinese family were burned to death with firewood alive!

……

Facing the dire situation of property being usurped and compatriots being massacred, Long Hao did not make any official response, as if he had disappeared, but... there were more and more newspapers reporting these ugly events that contained human nature.

Reporter in Chicago.The thugs looting the beauty's cosmetics were photographed;

The reporter photographed the charred and curled body in Scampo;

The reporter was in Mexico and took photos of the U.S. military attacking the Mexican government forces...

During this period of time, American newspapers were published more frequently than before when the whole country was scolding the war, especially the western newspapers, which were given away for free, causing nearly [-]% of the people in the United States to read these newspapers and learn about these secrets .

They were amazed at the Federation's severe attack on the Earl, and at the same time, the brutality that was exposed.Filled with righteous indignation, people with conscience once again took to the streets spontaneously to protest!

"The Earl of Beihai is guilty, but this is not a reason for you to 'resist violence with violence'!"

"I don't want to mention whether the companies controlled by Earl are operating illegally, but how innocent are the people who died? Not only Chinese and yellow people were involved, but also many low-income white people were involved. This is by no means a normal behavior. It's an act of robbery disguised as justice!"

……

In just ten days, under the constant urging of public opinion.There is a feeling that the situation is about to reverse.

Yes, Long Hao was found guilty, but he gradually became the object of sympathy in front of these 'greedy eaters' ugly eating appearance.

The people are not stupid, they have newspapers as guides, and they seem to see clearly: the Federation is going to convict Long Hao.The purpose is not to uphold justice and appease the heroic spirits, but for the interests of the chaebols they represent!They usurp other people's property, they kill innocent citizens, and they try to provoke another war between countries.Sacrificing the innocent, breaking the borders and cracking the soil for those wealthy plutocrats and oligarchs, and feeding their fat belly!

The weaker side is always easy to get sympathy, what's more, this 'weaker side' actually filed an appeal, a special appeal for British nobles!

Without the backdrop of these ugly forces, this appeal would probably only be regarded as Long Hao's dying struggle, but it is different now. People who learned about Long Hao's appeal through the newspapers all thought: there must be new evidence, otherwise, How could the Earl of Beihai have the courage to appeal?Hey, go get your tickets, there's probably something good to see!If the Earl of Beihai is turned over, we have to see how the Federation explains what it has done these days, and how to compensate?snort!

With this mentality in mind, the trial hall of the State Court of Justice was once again full. In the [-] auditoriums, everyone was sitting upright, with their eyes wide open, ready to see how the Earl of Beihai would make a comeback.

The focus of the appeal was clearly pointed out by Long Hao's words: he asked to summon the witness Vivienne again, and asked for a review of her testimony and the evidence she provided!

This is the right thing to do. It can be said that fifteen days ago, Long Hao's party was defeated by that lovely and pitiful maid, and if he wanted to make a comeback this time, he naturally had to start from this point.

The person who needs to tie the bell is needed to untie the bell!

It was the second time for Vivienne to appear in court. This time, she seemed even more disturbed, staring at her knees all the time, and trembling when there was a slight disturbance outside.

"Quiet! Don't disturb the witnesses!"

On the high platform, the magistrate slammed the hammer hard to stop the people who kept booing in the gallery.

"Vivian, is your testimony still the same as last time?"

When Vivian calmed down a little, Long Hao stood up by himself, got out of the wheelchair, and went up to ask in person.

"Protest, the defendant cannot directly question his own witnesses." The first federal lawyer raised his hand in protest.

"You are wrong, I am not only the defendant, but also the defense lawyer."

Long Hao looked back with a leisurely smile, then looked at Gao Tai: "Your Honor, today I choose to defend myself, is that okay?"

"Well, there is no problem, but, Earl, are you sure you want to do this?" The police officer frowned and looked down at Long Hao.

There are generally only two reasons for laymen to become defense lawyers and defend themselves: one is lack of money, and the other is evidence that is not interfered with by lawyers' skills.

The Earl of Beihai will naturally not be short of money, so... he has strong evidence to turn the tables?

The police officer's heart trembled, and he regretted why he accepted the check issued by the Morgan consortium fifteen days ago.The issuance of judgments was expedited.

"I'm sure."

Long Hao smiled, walked up to Vivienne who bowed her head, and said softly, "Miss Vivienne, if I said now that you were actually cheated, would you believe it?"

"Me. How?"

Vivienne raised her head, looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar handsome face, her heart trembled.

He didn't come to scold me, he didn't come to humiliate me, he just said that I was cheated?This is how the same thing?

"Yes, here is a report issued by the hospital, you can take a look."

Long Hao took out a document from his bosom, handed it to Vivienne, and said softly and calmly, "Look slowly. I'll wait for you."

"Protest, protest that the defendant handed over unregistered items to our witnesses!" shouted the first federal lawyer.

"You can see it if you want, I'll bring it to you later!"

Long Hao smiled: "Your Honor, Vivienne's appearance last time was not approved by our side, and now I just produced a medical examination report, is it considered a violation?"

The police officer thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "It's not an example. But Earl, it's not an example! The evidence should be reviewed by us first."

"Okay. I'll remember the judge's orders."

Long Hao smiled politely, took out another piece of paper from his pocket, it was a check, and shook it: "It's a pity, it's a pity, it's not an example... It seems that some people can't get rich."

When Long Hao said this.He glanced at the police officer vaguely, which made his heart skip a beat: Did he know?Does he know that I have received black money?And know I'm still getting a check! ?

……

Under the suspicion of the prosecutor and the first lawyer, Vivienne finished reading the report. Her face was as pale as paper, and her eyes were full of disbelief.But if you look carefully, there seems to be a kind of relief deep in the pupil.

"Is this...really?" she asked.

"I'm telling you it's true, but this is a new technology, and I won't blame you if you don't believe me."

"I, I want to believe it!"

Vivian hesitated for a moment, determined to follow her heart: "My lord, I, I'm sorry for you!"

what? What? !

As soon as Vivienne said this, although it was in a low voice, it caused an uproar in the hall: The prosecution witness actually said sorry to the defendant?This, is this an admission of perjury?

Good guy, what did the Earl of Beihai show that chick to turn the situation around in one fell swoop?

This method is unpredictable!

Not only did the audience have this curiosity, but the first federal lawyer also jumped anxiously, like an ant on a hot pot: Hey, this Vivienne is really unreliable, tell me the content after you finish reading, say sorry, sit down What's the point of wiping tears there?

"Count, please tell me the contents of this report." The First Federal Lawyer thought for a few seconds before deciding to ask himself.

"Oh, I almost forgot if you didn't ask."

Long Hao raised his hand and signaled for the report to pass: "This medical report is the paternity test report of Xinchuang Hospital. The report states that this Ms. Vivienne and Mr. Coentram... have no blood relationship!"

"impossible!"

"you're lying!"

The first lawyer and Coentram yelled almost at the same time. Among them, the first lawyer was astonished, while Coentran was furious, his eyes were red, and he wanted to jump out of the witness stand and kill Long Hao!

"That's the conclusion of the report!"

Long Hao shrugged his shoulders, ignoring Coentram's endless cursing behind his back: "By the way, if it's not a guilty conscience, why is this Mr. Coentrane so excited?"

"hiss……"

The first lawyer rubbed the bridge of his nose and said to the court officer: "Your Honor, the incident happened suddenly. I request an adjournment, and I need time to ask professionals to judge this so-called medical certificate!"

"Yes, adjourn!"

The police officer was also eager for a 'halftime break'. Since Long Hao showed the check, he has been restless. Taking advantage of this intermission, he could go to Long Hao to ask what happened.

Enforcing the law for life, breaking the law for a day, the performance of the prosecutor is particularly unbearable...

This 'rest' lasted until the third day.

After the resumption of the trial, the first lawyer held up a thick stack of telegrams with a livid face: "...these are urgent telegrams from Boston, London, Frankfurt and other places. We visited famous experts in the medical field. They The reply is all, from a medical point of view. The paternity test is currently only about [-]% correct, and it is untenable to use the paternity test results to testify in court! Therefore, I implore the judge to declare that this paternity test report is invalid! "

The authenticity of this report is very important, if it is true.Vivienne is bound to turn against her, and the cornerstone of her accusation against Long Hao will collapse.

Because, the first lawyer clearly understood that the reason why Vivienne was willing to testify against Long Hao at the last moment was largely because Coentram announced his father-daughter relationship with her, that is, this family relationship. Let Vivienne bear great pressure to betray Mrs. Caponera.

And if the appraisal report proves that Coentraon lied about the 'father-daughter relationship', then.Vivienne only needs to point out that most of the evidence against Long Hao was forged, and that would be enough to exonerate the Earl!

Therefore, in the past two days, the first lawyer spared no effort to contact so many medical experts in his hands, not to prove that the appraisal report really cannot be used as court evidence, but to stabilize Vivienne and let her know.Long Hao is 'liing to her'!She is still Coentraan's illegitimate daughter!

"Count, if you don't have any new reasons, then this court has no choice but to declare the certificate invalid!" The police officer glanced at Long Hao and said impartially.

"The concept of this report is that it is a little bit ahead of the world, and its technology is also world-leading. Hehe, it is difficult for me to prove myself with the advanced that others don't understand!"

Long Hao smiled lightly.Just when others thought that he was going to give up the validity of this evidence, he took another document from Yuan'er: "Judge, members of the jury, this is a document from the Xinchuang Hospital for 88 pairs of parent-child relationships. In the experimental report made by the experimenter, the correct rate of discrimination reached 100%. I think this is all the reasons I can come up with, and if the court cannot accept it, there is nothing I can do about it.”

The information was submitted, and after a long wait of three hours, the judge came out of the consultation room first, coughed, and read out the opinion of the jury: "...According to the federal law, although the experimental data provided by the earl is correct, There is no doubt about it, but the clinical trial was less than a month ago, so according to regulations, it cannot be used as evidence in court! Sorry, Earl..."

"Shh!"

There was booing in the hall.

The first lawyer looked mournful, his face pale: I'm sorry, I'm sorry for hugging your sister!Wouldn't it be over if you just declared the evidence invalid?After such a long series of words, everyone now understands that the paternity test report is true!It's over, it's over, now that chick Vivienne bites back, how should I respond?The Earl of Beihai must be freed! md, this judge, is he showing his head, doesn't he remember that he took our check?Dry……

After cursing a few words in his heart, the prosecution's first lawyer would certainly not sit still, so he gave the prosecutor who took the money and did nothing, and said angrily, "Judge, I ask for an adjournment!"

"what happened again?"

It was not only the police officer who asked this question, but also the audience present.

The court will be adjourned every now and then. Are you trying a case or acting in a TV series? Too many commercials?

Prosecutor: "Isn't the evidence invalid? Don't adjourn the trial. The prosecution lawyer, please continue!"

The first lawyer: "No, I think this testimonial has seriously affected the emotions of our witness. Therefore, we must make adjustments. Otherwise, I ask the jury to ignore all the statements of this witness."

"How do you want to adjust?" The police officer shrugged and said helplessly.

"We're going to prepare five pairs of test subjects, and then we'll personally test them out with the paternity test proposed by the Earl!"

"Count, what's your opinion?" The police officer turned his head and asked Long Hao gently.

"I have no objection. I think that Miss Vivienne must also look forward to seeing this experiment. The written things are always very empty."

Neither the prosecution nor the defense had any objections, let alone the audience who were watching the scene.

Finally, this 'advertisement break' is followed by a preview of 'becoming back soon', the waiting will not be so boring...

The first lawyer quickly prepared five pairs of test subjects, and the appraisal experts from Xinchuang Hospital also gave the answer.

Whether the five pairs of test subjects are parent-child relationship, the answer... is absolutely correct!

"Oh, amazing!"

When the appraisal expert Breeze led a group of fake doctors out of the arena, cheers from the audience resounded in the trial hall.

With a 100% accuracy rate, this paternity test really couldn't be more true!

"Haha, this is good. When the court is adjourned, I will ask my three-year-old child to have an appraisal. Md, who bullied me at the time was ignorant, saying that it is normal to have a baby at eight months! This green hat, I You have to figure out the color!"

"Wow, brother, I'm so excited. I have a suggestion. While figuring out the color of the hat, it's best to also figure out the painter of this hat!"

"how to do?"

"Hehe, it's simple, didn't you see? The paternity test just now is so simple, it can be done with just one hair, you go and get the hairs of the suspects, and test it a few more times, the 'painter' is not just come out?"

"Oh, my dear friend, uh, the appraisal fee seems not cheap, hey, are you the trustee of Xinchuang Hospital?"

"You are the trustee, bah, your whole family is trustee, no wonder you are wearing a cuckold, just for your suspicion, I have to wear it for you when I marry you!"

……

It became clear that Vivienne was not Coentraan's daughter at all!

Vivian's tears blinded her eyes, she trembled, and looked at the big housekeeper who was a few meters away, her lips moved: "You, are you lying to me?"

Compared with Long Hao's calm and calm, the first lawyer's face is full of sweat at the moment. (To be continued..)
