Magus Tech (Technological Wizard)

After speaking, Machu pushed the rickshaw driver, and the rickshaw driver ran towards the distance. After running a few steps, he confirmed slowly: "Go to Atlanta University and say that you are Machu of the magic salt study, right? "

"Spell Linguistics, Machu!"

"Oh, I've made a note." The rickshaw driver strode up and disappeared in the distance of the street after a while.

Watching the rickshaw driver leave, Machu reached out and stopped another rickshaw, beckoned Donna and himself to sit on it, and said to the dark-skinned rickshaw driver: "Go to the justice court on Eleventh Avenue, hurry up!"

"The fare..."

"Receipt on time."

"Okay." The rickshaw driver took out an hourglass and hung it on the side of the rickshaw, and ran hard.

...

In the afternoon near dusk.

In the city of Atlanta, on Eleventh Avenue in the center of the city, a five-story stone building stands here, which is where the justice court is located.

Among them, the first, second, and third floors of the five-story stone building are responsible for the public security trials. During the trials, they are all open to the public, allowing the audience to observe.

Now the main trial hall on the first floor has been filled with onlookers one after another, and the criminal suspects have already entered the venue, waiting for the trial judge to arrive. The scene looked a little chaotic, and several personnel responsible for maintaining order frowned from time to time, considering whether it was necessary to yell and control the scene.

At this time, Machu, who came in a rickshaw, squeezed into the crowd, was very close to Donna, and was pointing to various places in the trial hall, introducing them to Donna.

"Did you see those people? They are the court security officer and the court security officer. They have a lot of temper and strength. If any bystanders are too excited, they will throw them out directly, saying that they are maintaining the majesty of the court. So, wait a minute When watching, we just watch obediently and don't make any noise."

Machu reminded seriously.

"Yes." Donna nodded with a sullen face, expressing her understanding.

After a pause, Machu pointed to the corner and continued: "By the way, look there, you see that person who is dressed similarly to the security officer of the court, but has a seat. He is the chief security officer of the court. I heard that they are all powerful. of wizards.

If during the trial, the criminal suspect is not convinced and wants to violently resist the law, or if someone directly rushes into the public security court to snatch the suspect, the other party will take action. It is said that since the establishment of the Magistrate's Court, the other party has shot three times. One was two years ago, and the other two were a year ago. Unfortunately... I was busy at school and didn't come here, so I didn't see it. "

As he spoke, Machu was full of regrets.

"By the way, there is still that place." Machu pointed again, "There is the passage for the magistrate to enter the court. After the magistrate enters in a while, it means that the trial has officially started. I heard that this time the judge will be in charge of the trial. The magistrate is Adam Fell, known as the Iron Mask, very serious and ruthless. It doesn’t matter if the criminal suspects being tried obey, otherwise there must be a good show.”

"real?"

"Of course, just wait and see."

"profound."

...

While Machu was introducing Donna non-stop, the so-called "Iron Mask" Magistrate Adam Fell was in the waiting room.

He was wearing a black judge's robe, maintaining his usual stern expression, his emerald green eyes narrowed slightly, and with rough hands, he was flipping through the case records compiled by his subordinates not long ago, and watching the internal video of the monitoring crystal ball just sent .

After reading all of them, he already had a general idea of ​​the trial, and he was about to walk out of the lounge and into the courtroom.

As a result, as soon as he walked out of the lounge door, he was stopped. The person who stopped him was a man also wearing a black judge's robe. The difference was that the man did not have two golden stripes on his chest.

But four golden stripes.

According to Sarin's rules, one stripe represents the first-level judge, two stripes represent the second-level judge, and three stripes represent the third-level judge. As for the four stripes, it represents the supreme judge, and there is only one person in the entire city of Atlanta. Generally, they don't appear in the justice court on Eleventh Avenue. They spend more time at the headquarters of the Ministry of Law.

Looking at the person standing in front of him, Adam was slightly taken aback, his eyes fell on the other person's silver-white hair, and he said in surprise, "Teacher... why are you here?"

"Adam, can't you guess?" The silver-haired old man smiled slightly.

"Is it related to the case I'm going to try in the court?" Art frowned a little, "Isn't it a very common case, where both suspects and suspects illegally used extraordinary power in public places. I have tried several similar cases Ten pieces, what's wrong?"

"But you should be clear that one of the suspects is from Shaar, and they represent the local forces of the Soma Alliance to arrest the criminal they identified—that is, the other suspect." The old man whispered.

"This situation is not unusual. In this court of justice, there have been trials at least ten times, and I was responsible for two of them." Adam said, still not understanding the old man's thoughts.

"Then do you remember when was the last time a similar case was tried?" the old man asked.

"This..." Adam was taken aback for a moment, thought for a while, and answered aloud, "It seems like seven months ago, it's been a long time."

"You've also discovered that it's been a while, and that's the problem." The old man said, "Ten previous trials of similar cases have aroused extreme dissatisfaction from the alliance. Later, I heard that the deputy lord, Your Excellency Jasmine, brought a Thousands of Spark knights in magical costumes went out of the city for a long time, and they didn't know what they did before they calmed down.

Since then, the alliance has stopped randomly arresting people in Sarin. If they really want to arrest them, they also send a note to the efficiency department. I thought that the situation would continue like this forever, but who knows, this tacit agreement was broken again today. In your opinion, it may be just an ordinary case, but in the eyes of some big shots, it may be a signal. "

Only then did Adam realize, pondered for a few seconds, and asked: "So, what should we do in this trial, and what result do some people above want? Leniency? Strictness?"

"No, neither leniency nor strictness, just follow the law - Shalin's law." The old man said seriously, "This time you just go to the trial completely according to the regulations, and you don't need to think about anything else."

"Then teacher, why did you come to me? Isn't this superfluous, it makes me feel like a dwarf prince in a drama, bending over to pass through a tunnel."

"You still think too little." The old man shook his head, looked at Adam and said, "I came to you not just to talk nonsense to you, but to tell you the truth of the matter. Let you be clear, this trial is not Simple, you have to stick to the principle of judging. But if you stick to the principle, others may not stick to it, so I and other people are here to help you not be influenced by the other side. Understand?"

"Well……"
