Cosma Empire

Magus put a warrant in his hand on the table, pushed it to the edge of the table on the other side with his index finger, "Have you heard anything interesting these days?"

Wallace nodded and replied: "I heard that Mr. Donald, the new mayor of Otis, conspired with members of the Capet family to assassinate the former mayor, Mr. Dooling, but the assassination failed, and Mr. Doolin was also injured. I didn't know later For some reason, this matter has temporarily subsided for a while, and it was not until this morning that I heard from the Ministry of Justice that Mr. Dooling had brought the two parties to court."

Maggs raised his hand, his index finger left the document on the desktop, he pointed to Wallace, "Very good, this time the special warrant I issued requires you to investigate this matter, we should not tolerate this The people who break the rules appear, and you are the defenders of the rules. Go and investigate whether there is any conspiracy or other relationship between Mr. Donald and the Capet family. If the situation is true, come to me with evidence, and you know what to do!" , his fingers curled up, and they clasped on the table, "You can go to work now!"

Wallace bowed slightly and took two steps forward to pick up the special permit issued by Magus himself, folded it carefully and put it in his coat pocket, and then backed out.

Whether in the past or now, the attitude of the empire towards nobles and the ruling party towards officials is the same, that is, try not to investigate these people as much as possible, so that they have a basis for full trust. In the past, this was a necessary means for the royal family and His Majesty to protect their own rights and interests. If you always doubt the nobles’ character and whether they betrayed you, you will definitely lose the support of these nobles, and civil war may break out, and even the imperial power will be shaken. .

In the new era, in order to gain more supporters, the ruling party will not conduct investigations on any party insiders without authorization. The composition of the new party is very complicated, consisting of nobles, capitalists, commoners and other multi-level members. Once the nerves of a certain class are touched, it is very likely to cause a series of problems. Powell is a typical example of this. Magus knew that Powell was now on the opposite side of himself, but he still did not take any action against Powell, just to prevent the high-level members of the new party who had climbed up from the civilian class from having an accident, which would make people within the new party Members of the civilian class panicked.

Therefore, the internal affairs investigation department rarely takes the initiative to do anything. Most of the time they are idle and have nothing to do. They cooperate with this department to do something, or help that department do something. Only after Maggs signed a special permit, the internal affairs department will start a comprehensive investigation of party members. Mags also realized some problems in the party's internal investigation department, so he proposed to form a brand new department to target officials' crimes. This department has not yet been established and is still being planned.

He hopes to use this neutral and relatively moderate department to replace the internal affairs departments of the old and new parties, and to make more progress and achievements in anti-official crimes.

As for why Magus issued this special permit after the Capet family entered the arena, there are two reasons.

The first reason is that he intends to use the Capet family as a springboard,

Let them pull more noble capitalists into the case, implicate more noble capitalists, and smash them all. This may satisfy the sociologist's assumption of redistribution of rights and benefits to the crushed classes. And these people should indeed be transformed, so the plan can only be started after the Capet family enters the venue.

Secondly, Magus still has the last hesitation for Donald. If he chooses to give in and compromise, he may be transferred to a remote city to serve as mayor. But when Magus is about to step down four years later, he will definitely bring Donald back. Even if he can't be the mayor of a special zone like Odis or a bustling city, an ordinary city is still fine. Because he is a pawn, an "innocent" pawn in the whole plan, he endured what he shouldn't have to bear, and insisted on his own principles, so he should be given some compensation.

The original plan was for the Anthem Consortium to operate a person to become the mayor of Odis City. With such a puppet mayor of the Capet family, the Capet family will definitely invest a lot of money and effort in Odis City, which will To be the grave they dug for themselves. But what I didn't expect was that the Capet family focused all their energy on the new special zone in the south, and seemed indifferent to the mayor of Odis, which was vacant in front of them, which made Magus's plan slightly deviated.

In fact, this deviation is ultimately due to Du Lin. Because he killed Solo, there is no such a person in the Capet family. A person who lost face in Odis City and is still competing for the position of Patriarch. He urgently needs to find face from Odis City. figure!

If Solo hadn't died, Durin would have persuaded the family to use certain resources to run a freshly-baked mayor of Odis if he left. Members already know it. Although there is no evidence to link Solo's disappearance with Doolin, everyone agrees that the man must have been made by Doolin. At this time, to stimulate this lunatic who just lost his official position, to tear up the interests he left in Odis City, will he do crazy things again?

Probably!

So the Capet family directly ignored the city of Odis, which was next to their mouth. In order to firmly grasp the opportunity in the south as soon as possible, they temporarily gave up the city of Odis.

Until the appearance of Donald, his appearance attracted firepower for the Capet family. Perhaps before that, the old Capet was unwilling to miss the opportunity in the south because of the war with Durin. But now that the opportunity in the south can be seized, the mayor of Otis took the initiative to send the meat to their mouths, so there is no reason for them not to bite down. If Doolin really went berserk and wanted to bite someone because of this matter, he would definitely bite Donald first. When he killed Donald, enough evidence was left behind for the Capet family to directly defeat Durin head-on.

Sometimes the law is still useful, especially when some very important people take up the sharp knife of the law, the law can still be regarded as "just".

After a series of chance coincidences and mutual influences, things became much more complicated, but in the end, they followed the script to the end they should be heading towards, and the Capet family entered the game.

There are coincidences and deliberate intentions in the whole process, it can only be said that this world is really amazing!

The second reason for this matter is that Donald fell to the decadent aristocratic capital camp.

At noon of the same day, the Supreme Court of the Imperial Capital announced that it would open an investigation into the allegations made by Mr. Du Lin, and entered the stage of collecting evidence. At the same time, it issued a restraining order against Du Lin, Donald, and Polly. The three are not allowed to leave the Empire until this case is over, or they will face very serious consequences.

This time, Du Lin invited the main partners of the law firm that Kevin used to work to form a gorgeous team of lawyers to fight for him. For this reason, from the preparation of the case to the end of the final trial of the case, Du Lin must at least pay the team of lawyers Attorney fees of not less than 800,000. In fact, he can ask Kevin to help him, but Kevin will soon be promoted to a prosecutor, and he is also in a sensitive period, so it is not convenient to use him for the time being.

Besides, even if he couldn't appear in court, it didn't mean he couldn't appear in the legal team. It was normal to have private gatherings after work, and it wasn't illegal to exchange some business experience. We are all barristers, how to exploit loopholes is clearer than the other.

Of course, after Du Lin hired this group of people, he also put forward a request of his own, that is, to delay this case indefinitely as much as possible!

In fact, according to the lawyers, the evidence in his hand is already sufficient. There are direct photos and witnesses. Basically, it is not difficult to win the case with a little effort. But Du Lin is very clear that the trouble is not on his side, but on the Capet family's side. Solo's grandnephew seems to be dead, at least that's what the people he bribed told him, Solo and Ernes It's all over, and the other party in this case can be said to be all dead.

Once the Capet family applied for the death certificates of these people from the court, the case would go directly to the withdrawal stage—the defendants are all fucking dead, so what's the point of continuing this case?

Even if Du Lin didn't hire these lawyers, he could directly apply for the death certificates of these people, and he could guarantee that he could win the case.

But what good would winning the case do?

compensate?

For the Capet family who controlled the Anthem Consortium, the compensation of hundreds of thousands was nothing more than the natural disintegration and shedding of keratinized epithelial tissue after severe necrosis, referred to as dandruff, not even hair strands. The loss of these hundreds of thousands will not hurt the Capet family, and Dulin will not flourish after winning these hundreds of thousands, and Magus will not catch a Capet and implicate more noble capitalists. . No one has benefited, so we can't let this lawsuit end so quickly!

On the contrary, if this lawsuit is dragged on, first of all, Du Lin will stand on the moral high ground. After all, he is the victim, and he is a minority victim, who is more able to win the sympathy and tolerance of the mainstream views of society. Those who stand on the opposite side of the mainstream views like Du Lin must be villains. The noble backgrounds of Donald and the Capet family will become the objects of hatred from the mainstream social class. Driven by public opinion, they will suspect, hate, loathe, and hostile to these people.

The boiling public opinion will become an invisible knife, constantly cutting flesh on the Capet family and the Anthem Consortium. Coupled with a series of other actions, the Capet family will be in huge trouble!
