Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Chapter 123 This is the Barbarian

Hobert's debate once again won everyone's applause, but the debate did not end there. Next, the defendant's lawyer started from the point that it was more in Backlund's interest to follow the old rules. Hobert saw that the tide of the times was rolling forward, The law should be adjusted accordingly, and the two people started arguing back and forth.

It was not until two or three rounds later that the judge tapped his gavel: "Please do not have arguments in court that have nothing to do with the facts of the case."

The debate between the two lawyers was temporarily suspended.

Hobert then struck again, continuing to discuss Arnold's inaction and the causal relationship between Bob's disability.

However, the defendant's lawyer suddenly attacked Hobert and Bob from a moral perspective, saying that Hobert was profit-oriented and that he was here to make a fool of himself just for the sake of reputation. Said that Bob was too greedy, that his demands were too excessive, that they had exceeded industry norms, etc.

Hobert retorted: "I don't know what standard the defendant's lawyer used to determine that I put interests first? I think no matter what the standard is, Mr. Arnold, who is sitting in the defendant's box, adheres to the principle of 'interests first' more than I do." , otherwise he would not be a rich man, and I, who pursue interests first, would still be just an ordinary lawyer.

"In addition, although the defendant's lawyer was very careful in what he said just now and did not constitute defamation, your defense method was too despicable and you attempted to use moral attacks to make my client feel uneasy.

“Everyone, in terms of moral judgment, is the rest of my client’s life worth 150 pounds?

"When did life become so cheap? When did life become so cheap?"

These words caused everyone sitting here to fall into a brief period of thought, except for the defendant's lawyer. He looked at Hobert coldly. Unexpectedly, this little-known lawyer in front of him was the best lawyer he had ever encountered since his debut. Strong opponent.

The judge banged his gavel again: "This is a court, please don't engage in moral debates."

He asked: "Defendant's lawyer, do you have anything else to say?"

The defendant's lawyer and Arnold both heard that the judge was already biased in favor of the plaintiff. If Arnold was convicted of intentional injury, the plaintiff would win the case.

The defendant's lawyer thought carefully before saying: "Your Honor, I apply for an adjournment of the case."

The judge was slightly startled, but this was the power of the defendant's lawyer: "Okay, adjourn the court for ten minutes!"

After a brief communication with Arnold, the defendant's lawyer came to the plaintiff's table together.

The defendant's lawyer first looked at Hobert, and then said, "How about 500 pounds? Let's settle this case out of court."

Hobert helped Bob stand up and looked level with Arnold and the defendant's lawyer. He said: "Two of you, what are you so proud of? This is compensation, not charity from you.

He said: "500 pounds is fine, but your attitude towards compensation is unacceptable to us. Please ask Mr. Arnold to apologize to Bob in public."

The defendant's lawyer said: "There is a limit to our patience."

"I will return this sentence intact!"

Arnold suddenly said: "Young man, do you know that your current behavior will ruin your life? Do you know who you are against?

"You are going against the entire upper class of Backlund. I can tell you this, there is no way I can lose this lawsuit! Because after today, the entire upper class of Backlund will be on my side.

"Lawyer Hobert, right? Do you really not think about your own future? Do you really want to challenge the survival rules set by the gentlemen of Backlund?"

A smile flashed across Hobert's face: "This is exactly what I am pursuing!"

He immediately felt the feedback of the obvious digestion of the potion. His previous thinking was correct. Those who challenge the so-called "laws of civilization" are barbarians!

Arnold shook his head somewhat unreasonably. He gestured to the defendant's lawyer, and the two of them returned to the dock together.

Hobert helped Bob sit down: "You won't regret that there is no reconciliation, will you?"

Bob smiled and said: "Although I don't seem to have much dignity anymore, what Mr. Lawyer just said made me suddenly feel that the little dignity I have left is more valuable than 500 pounds."

Hobert smiled and nodded.

When ten minutes were up, the judge announced: "The court will reopen! Please invite the plaintiff's lawyer and the defendant's lawyer to make their final statements."

As soon as Hobert stood up, he felt a spiritual warning. He glanced at everyone, and finally his eyes fell on the defendant's lawyer.

The defendant's lawyer is a real "lawyer", and he is using his extraordinary ability to distort Hobert's thinking.

This shows that Arnold is ready to use despicable means to solve the problem.

Hobert sneered in his heart: Still want to distort the thinking of a "barbarian"?

He simply injected spiritual power into the "psychological spoon" hidden in the inner lining: "Psychological suggestion!"

The defendant's lawyer immediately stood up: "I, I, I was attacking Attorney Hobert with my extraordinary power just now, because I know a secret rule of the court. As long as extraordinary power is involved, the court's judgment is invalid, and the judge will immediately leave the court and After sternly warning those who use extraordinary abilities, the court was re-opened on another day.

"Whether it succeeds or not, it can achieve my goal. As long as this court does not pronounce a verdict, it will not be able to reach a final decision, which will temporarily defeat Hobert's appeal."

He covered his mouth with his hands in horror, but his voice could still reach everyone's ears clearly: "I, I, I used the same despicable means to reverse the situation before, including a week ago... "

"Forbidden!" The judge suddenly said in a voice full of majesty. He was a real "judge".

The "psychological suggestion" that Hobert had planted in a hurry immediately disintegrated, and then Hobert burst into laughter. He seemed to be laughing at the defendant's lawyer's despicability, and he seemed to be laughing at the defendant's lawyer for revealing his inner plan.

Audrey, who was sitting in the corner, looked at the "Pioneer of Justice" who was laughing in front of her, the cold-faced but helpless judge, and the uneasy defendant lawyer.

She planned to draw this scene immediately after returning, which must be extremely ironic.

Xio and Forsi looked at each other. They were both experienced Beyonders. They could tell at a glance that in the confrontation of extraordinary powers just now, Hobert had won a complete victory.

The expressions of Dai Li and Ikanser on the other side gradually became serious. They realized that this case might receive more attention in the future. Dai Li was even worried about whether Hobert could withstand the pressure.

In court, when Hobert laughed until his stomach hurt, he finally stopped laughing.

The judge waved to the defendant's lawyer and Hobert respectively.

The two lawyers walked to the front and back of the judge's bench. The judge said seriously: "You two, your performance today will be recorded by me. Believe me, you only have this chance. If you use power other than the law again in court, , the judge will send you to a special court immediately!"

Hobert said: "Your Honor, as you saw just now, he used his extraordinary ability first, and I just fought back effectively."

The judge gave the defendant's lawyer a cold look: "Of course he will undergo some special investigations!"

The defendant's lawyer unconsciously took a step back. Several cases he had accepted before could not withstand investigation at all, and he was likely to be sent to a special court for trial.

When the defendant's lawyer was uneasy, the judge said to Hobert: "Your defense is excellent."

But he finally said helplessly: "Retreat!"
