Chapter 17 Brother Is a Senior Lawyer
In a breakfast shop, Gu Ding took the first bite of the fried bun he just bought when he heard the voice of the sea emperor.
"I just intercepted the information from the prison. That guy named Prison said that he has the evidence that you assisted the interstellar pirate Kane to escape from the Aquamarine Prison. He has just applied for an arrest warrant from the federal court, and the police are already on their way. "
"Are you sure all the evidence has been destroyed?" Gu Ding raised his brows without showing any panic, and stuffed the remaining half of the fried bun into his mouth.
"You can rest assured that it has been destroyed cleanly." Sea Emperor replied with certainty, "I guess the evidence they said is likely to be the two fugitives you saw when Kane left. According to the prison The database shows that there are three criminals on the run. Those two guys are not among them. They should have been captured. They should be considered witnesses. However, according to federal law, witnesses alone are not enough. That guy has 9% The probability of thirteen is to deceive you and ask you to plead guilty. After all, ordinary people are immediately escorted to the federal court and told that there is evidence to prove the crime of this person. In order to reduce the punishment, there are also people who take the initiative to plead guilty. Quite a few, this is also the usual method of their business."
"I see," Guding calmly picked up the second fried bun.
It took a few minutes to stuff all the fried buns left on the plate into his stomach. Guding went to the front desk to settle the bill, but he secretly complained that today's fried buns were a bit overcooked and harder than usual.
The apartment where Guding lived was left by the father who adopted him, just across the street from the breakfast shop. There is nothing special about this house, just an ordinary residential house. Back in the room and turned on the TV, Guding waited patiently, and after a while, a siren roared close.
Several police cars rushed into the community and stopped outside the apartment where Gooding lived. A group of well-trained police officers got out of the car, apparently targeting the apartment where Gooding lived.
"They're here." Sea Emperor reminded.
"Got it." Gu Ding also heard a quick knock at the door at this time.
Opening the door, Guding's eyes fell on the policeman headed, "Who are you looking for?"
"Are you Guding?" The leading policeman did not seem to have expected Guding to be so young, but it was not that he had never seen the juvenile offender, and the suspicion in his heart quickly dissipated.
"Yes, I am Guding." Guding naturally knew the purpose of the police.
"Come with us!" The leading police officer beckoned, and a group of policemen with real guns behind him immediately surrounded him and aimed their guns at Guding, for fear that he would do anything.
Gooding spread his hands, indicating that he had no threat. "I asked to see the arrest warrant."
The leading man frowned slightly, Guding's reaction was completely unexpected. Bowing his head on his watch, he sent the electronic version of the arrest warrant to Gooding's public mailbox.
The so-called arrest warrant is actually an electronic version of the document stamped with the seal of the federal court, which describes in detail the relevant information of the criminal suspect, and usually lists the criminal evidence.
Gooding wanted to see this because he wanted to know what information the federal court had at the moment. At a glance, the column of criminal evidence says "Not yet submitted", and the column for the applicant of the arrest warrant is a name familiar to Gooding - Prison.
"This guy really came to Seablue Star." Gu Ding raised his brows slightly, and stretched out his hands very freely, "Okay, I'll go with you.
"
By convention, in order to prevent suspects from escaping, magnetic handcuffs are used to restrain suspects. Seeing Guding taking such initiative, a group of police officers were a little surprised.
The leading police officer did not embarrass Guding. Usually, his hands should be handcuffed behind his back, because the suspect's movement range is limited and he can better restrain him. The officer just handcuffed Guding and let him put his hands in front of him. One may be that he is young and not very threatening, and the other may be that he is more cooperative.
Guding was sent to the head of the police officer's car.
There is a faint smell of woody spices in the car. Although Guding doesn't know what brand of perfume it is, it should not be cheap. The inside of the car is very clean, and even the windows are spotlessly cleaned. Obviously, the owner of the car is a person who pays more attention to the quality of life. The only decoration in the car is a three-dimensional photo frame, in which a man is holding a little girl.
Seeing this, Gu Ding raised his brows and made a preliminary judgment on the sheriff's personal life, "Divorced? Widowed? Or is the child adopted?"
Gooding and Reed have known each other for so many years, and they are more or less affected by some of his bad reasoning habits, allowing him to pay more attention to some details and make his own judgments than ordinary people.
About 20 minutes later, the car that escorted Guding arrived at the federal court.
Gooding was like a felon, sent to federal court by a group of heavily armed police.
Not many people came to the hearing, and there were only eight people on the jury.
The plaintiff's lawyer is a serious-looking middle-aged man, dressed in a black suit and a solid blue tie. Seeing Gu Ding's presence, he just raised his head slightly, then looked down at the information in his hand, his expression didn't seem to be relaxed.
As for Prison, not yet present. Guding guessed that he should be putting on airs deliberately, and he had to wait until the end.
However, Gu Ding also noticed that, as a defendant, he did not even appoint a defense lawyer to assist him in court this time. He immediately asked, "Your Majesty, should I be able to hire a defense attorney for myself?"
The other party's lawyer immediately said, "The court is about to start. If your lawyer can arrive before the case is closed, we have no objection."
The judge glanced at the lawyer, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and then explained slowly, "Yes, I was going to send an assistance lawyer, but I have asked more than a dozen lawyers, and they are busy recently. other cases."
"I just found out that Prison sent a threatening letter to the judge twenty minutes ago, not allowing him to notify any assistance lawyers, otherwise his son will be sentenced to 20 years in prison." The voice came suddenly.
"It's okay, I know a lawyer, we can have a normal court session, and I'll let him arrive as soon as possible." Gooding nodded at the judge.
"Then you can contact yourself, anyway, the court has not yet opened." The judge can only suggest this.
Gooding found Reed's name on the communicator and dialed.
"Hey, it's early in the morning, what's the matter?" Reed obviously didn't wake up, and there was a lazy taste in his voice. "Don't tell me you're standing in front of my house with a box of fried buns in your hand..."
"I remember that you seem to have taken the lawyer's qualification certificate several times. Have you obtained the certificate?" When Gu Ding said this, the judge was stunned for a moment, and a look of disdain flashed on Prisson's lawyer's face.
"What do you mean by taking the test a few times? Do you know how many levels of the lawyer's qualification certificate?" Reed immediately retorted when he heard the words. From Guding's words, it sounded as if he had failed the test several times. He used his talent for talking again and explained, "Lawyer qualifications are divided from low to high, trainee lawyers, junior lawyers, intermediate lawyers, senior lawyers..."
"Hey, I'm just asking if you have any evidence, do you want so much nonsense?" Gooding interrupted Reed, he knew that if he didn't stop it, I'm afraid the other party wouldn't finish talking about the court session.
"Why are you asking this?" Reed couldn't help asking.
"I'm now in federal court charged with releasing a reward."
"Isn't it April Fool's Day?" Reed turned his head and glanced at the calendar.
"Come here quickly if you have a certificate. If you don't have a certificate, find a lawyer you know and come over quickly. The court will start at nine o'clock." Gu Ding guessed that the other party should have a lawyer certificate.
"Oh, come here right now, I'll have breakfast first. Don't be afraid, brother is the only senior lawyer on Seablue Star, you'll be fine." Reed said and hung up the call.
(Suddenly found that today is April 1st, everyone happy April Fool's Day~~)
