Zhou Lin - Chapter 194 Epilogue Law-abiding citizens
May 31, evening, 11 o’clock sharp.
The five most credible world-class TV stations in the Federation suddenly cut off their ongoing programs and began to broadcast a legal program; a live broadcast room also appeared on the homepage of the world’s largest video website and began to play the same program. content.
Although the federal authorities immediately thought of many ways to prevent the live broadcast from continuing after discovering the emergency, the program had been broadcast for more than twenty minutes before they succeeded. During these twenty minutes, its global viewership, according to subsequent statistics, was at least over 1.5 billion – more people than those who watched the World Cup final.
In the first two minutes of this live broadcast, the first thing that came into the audience’s sight was an ordinary-looking white man; he was wearing a suit, with his hair styled to be shiny, holding a microphone, standing in front of the camera, and calling himself He is a sacrifice.
Although he has a Caucasian face, this man speaks very authentic Chinese. On the contrary, the few English words he occasionally mentions are not pronounced quite standardly.
And when he announced that he would broadcast a public trial for everyone and expose the largest and most evil federal conspiracy of this century, the ratings began to rise…
At the same time, in The Hague City, a large number of armed personnel from various departments such as the FCPS, the Federal Army, and the local police station in The Hague who were stationed outside the court suddenly found that they could not find the court.
In other words, in their minds, the concepts of what the Federal Tribunal in The Hague is, where it is, how to get in, etc. suddenly disappeared.
Those in the court were completely unaware of these situations. When the detectives lurking in the crowd confirmed the situation through the communicator, the feedback they received was always: The trial continues, don’t act rashly.
Just like that, at 11:05, all relevant personnel of the trial had finished entering.
Because it was going to be broadcast live, the steps before the trial were kept simple, and there was no step to select the jury. Anyway, the twelve stooges had been decided a few days ago.
Not long after, the chief federal prosecutor, Raymond Fox, stepped into the spotlight.
Justice Roberts followed the predetermined script and asked Raymond to read the case statement. Just as he had rehearsed, he spread out the manuscript that had been confirmed many times by many parties.
The defendant, James Lance, is guilty of…
But he only read the beginning and then stopped.
At this moment, Roberts looked at him, the detectives in the court looked at him, Sui Bian disguised as Lance looked at him, and the billions of viewers around the world also looked at him…
Finally, after a suffocating silence, he continued, but by this time, he had balled up the paper in his hand and threw it aside.
…for opposing the tyrannical rule of the Federation and questioning the federal justice…
As soon as Raymond raised his head, Roberts felt something bad. He wanted to knock the gavel to interrupt the opponent, but the communicator hidden in his ear sent the command Let him continue at this time; so , Roberts hesitated and put the gavel down again.
…The defendant was sent here. On the other side, Raymond’s statement continued, In the past month, although the defendant was subjected to various irregular detention and abuse, he still accepted it calmly. He told me about his own experiences and had a lot of communication with me.
“Before I, Raymond Fox, became a prosecutor, a lawyer, and before I stepped into this hall of justice, I swore an oath in front of the Statue of Justice.
“I will remember that the professional meaning of a legal practitioner is more important than the meaning of making a living.
“I will dedicate my time and energy to the public and provide equal professional services to people from all walks of life.
“I will work with other players in the legal system to make the federal legal system more complete and efficient.
“I will ensure that my clients are informed and their wishes and choices are respected when making decisions that affect them.
“I will treat everyone I come into contact with in the course of my work with humility.
“I will respect the spirit, intent, and requirements of the applicable rules or codes of professional conduct that govern my authority, and will encourage others to do the same.
“I will be loyal to the law and the people, and safeguard the dignity of the law, the integrity of the system, and social fairness and justice…
“So here I am today, refusing to read a false statement that was censored and staged.
We also refuse to prosecute such a law-abiding citizen for the federal government.
He is lying.
He had told countless lies in his life, but never once had he felt so excited and satisfied.
When he said this, he paused for a moment, and in the solemn and quiet courtroom, he silently raised his head and looked up at the exquisitely carved and high ceiling above his head.
The sky that was once so far away now seemed so close at hand, because the entire rotten judicial palace had collapsed above his head.
And he will become a judge under the new system.
He will become the new judge.
After a moment, Raymond turned to look at the entrance of the court and spoke again: There is someone else who should be in the dock today, but he… they, those murderers and cowards, did not come.
“This dock can’t accommodate that many people.
However, a key witness bravely came here today. He will expose their crimes in court.
Almost as soon as he said the last word, the court door was pushed open.
Then, Pavel Zaitsev, the former deputy commander of the Iron-Blooded Alliance, also known as the federal undercover agent Mahomes Prato, walked in wearing his federal military uniform…
