Mystery: Shadow of Order

"Sit down, just follow the normal procedure."

Rawls casually leaned on the sofa and saw lawyer Jurgen stand up somewhat cautiously and put the case and materials on the marble coffee table.

So he waved for Jurgen to sit down, then turned to look at Morris, his personal servant, and snapped his fingers.

"Two cups of Marquis black tea."

Seeing lawyer Jurgen sitting on the sofa opposite, Rawls smiled and said:

"I'm no different from other barristers in the firm, just follow your previous habits."

Jurgen nodded and relaxed a lot. It wasn't the first time he had communicated with a barrister, but it was the first time the boss had taken over his own case, despite his previous speculations.

When he first took over the case, he thought that the client Werther Gold was a friend of his boss, but when he communicated with Werther Gold, he realized that the two had only met a few times.

The other party involved in the case was the son of the new party boss. In addition to the previous anomalies, Jurgen knew that he was involved in a big case.

He was also mentally prepared that the case might be taken over by Rawls, but Jurgen was still shocked when the fact was as he guessed.

If it was two months ago, Jurgen would have felt normal, but in the past two months, Rawls has almost stopped taking cases, and even appeared in the office once a week or two.

Lawyers at the firm all speculated that Rawls wanted to get in touch with political parties and then seek a knighthood.

No more thinking, although Rawls already knew the case very well, Jurgen started to tell the case according to the previous procedure:

"At about ten o'clock in the evening on June 27, Mr. Wetter Gold, who lives in Xuefeng Street, Chorwood District, heard a hurried knock on the door..."

Jurgen, who was telling the case, saw Rawls suddenly make a pause gesture, so he stopped:

"boss?"

Rawls shook his head, a little serious:

"Just call me Lawyers Rawls."

"Okay, Lawyer Rawls."

"Lawyer Jurgen, you have to remember one thing, you must protect your client's privacy at all times, and use 'I' instead of the client." (Note 1)

Jurgen was taken aback for a moment, even as a solicitor, he knew that the lawyers in the firm used the first person to describe the case in order to protect the privacy of the client when discussing the case.

And this is one of the reasons why Adrian Firm can become a top firm in Backlund, because the privacy of the parties is strictly protected.

About a hundred years ago, influenced by the Civil Code and some related policies promulgated by Emperor Roselle, the Ruen Kingdom established that lawyers and clients have the privilege of confidentiality.

If in the communication between the client and the lawyer, he admits that he killed someone, can the lawyer's testimony be used as evidence for the judgment? How should the lawyer handle it?

On one side is the justice of the law, and on the other side is his own professional standards. Therefore, this privilege is not to protect the interests of the client, but to respect the personality and dignity of the lawyer, which belongs to the lawyer's right.

After Rawls' father Mason founded the firm, perhaps because of the influence of the "Mother of Secrets", the goddess of the night, the rules of the firm were expanded, stipulating that barristers must not disclose the client's situation, even if it is to boss.

Because of this stipulation, the Adrian firm has grown and it has come to this day.

But this rule has no effect on solicitors, because solicitors will not discuss with other barristers how to defend like barristers.

Although he felt that Rawls was a bit harsh, he was his own boss after all, and lawyer Jurgen didn't say anything, and was going to continue to tell the case.

When Rawls saw Jurgen and wanted to continue talking, he couldn't help laughing bitterly in his heart. He shouldn't go around with the old-fashioned and traditional Loen people like Jurgen, so he directly stated his purpose:

"Lawyer Jurgen, do you want to become a barrister?"

Jurgen was stunned again, somewhat puzzled, but replied:

"Of course, my plan is to go to Lincoln College in a few years."

Rawls breathed a sigh of relief, then asked:

"Why a few years?"

Jurgen had a rare look of shock on his face and said:

"Sir, after entering the academy, I can no longer work as a solicitor, and it is a semi-closed study, so I have to save a sum of money first."

"Ah, sorry. I forgot about that."

Rawls was a little embarrassed, he never knew this. At the age of eighteen he passed the entrance test of the four colleges and went straight to Lincoln College.

Jurgen chose Lincoln College to a large extent because the price of Tingen was lower than that of Backlund.

And Lincoln College's tuition is also lower than the other three. However, the four major colleges have regulations, or whether most universities have regulations, not to recruit bankrupt people.

Rawls let out a long breath and continued:

"If the firm recommends you to study at Lincoln College and pays the fee, what do you think?"

Lincoln Law School, as the lowest tuition fee of the four colleges~www.wuxiaspot.com~, all costs are about 150 pounds per year, which is lower than Jurgen's current income.

Even if he is already a solicitor, it will take at least 4 years to study at Lincoln College, which is 600 pounds.

Jurgen felt that his shocked expression of the year had been used up today, but he still managed to calm down, his voice trembled a little:

"why me?"

"Your work experience and serious attitude in the firm, as well as your willingness and potential to become a barrister."

Rawls leaned back on the back of the sofa, he couldn't say, Jurgen was the lawyer closest to him when he had this idea!

Of course, Jurgen's outstanding performance also gave Rawls a good impression.

Jurgen is skeptical of Rawls's answer. There are many such lawyers in the firm, and he is more willing to believe that it is because he was involved in this case.

Rawls ignored Jurgen's thoughts and continued to explain:

"You know, after I took over, our firm recruited some interns from Lincoln College, and I also graduated from Lincoln College.

Our firm is already considered a top firm in Backlund, but if we want to go a step further, we must obtain the support of one of the four major academies.

And I plan to recommend two or three solicitors to Lincoln College every year, and then sponsor some students, so as to get the support of Lincoln College. "

Hearing Rawls' description, Jurgen knew that he was part of the boss's plan, or the beginning, but it didn't prevent him from thanking his boss.

At the same time, he also needs to know what Rawls will arrange after that. He doesn't quite believe that Rawls will help him in vain. He asked in a deep voice:

"Thank you very much, Mr. Adrian, what do you need me to do?"
