Three days later.

Central City, the central square in the city center.

It's just before eight o'clock in the morning.

The square, which covers an area of ​​more than 300,000 square meters, is filled with people and the sky is filled with people.

More than 500,000 Erqixing people gathered in the square early, shoulder to shoulder, hand to hand, chest to back, densely packed, filling the square.

In the center of the square, a ten-meter-high cylindrical platform was built, covering an area of ​​800 square meters. It was made of solid alloy material and was very solid and strong.

On the high platform, there are seats for the judge, lawyers and lawyers, VIP seats, press boxes, and a hundred jury seats.

Around the high platform, some awnings, camera positions, lighting equipment, loudspeaker equipment, and real-time video projection equipment are also arranged.

All preparations are to make this trial of the century grand, formal and authoritative.

There are about 500 million Erqixing people left on the prison island. Regardless of men, women, old and young, except for some public officials, they all took a holiday today, stopped what they were doing, and sat around in front of the TV projection equipment or radio, holding their breath. , watch and listen to this trial of the century.

Everyone is paying attention to this big trial that concerns the fate of all Erqi Planet people.

The chief judge presiding over this trial is an old man who is proficient in law. He is over 70 years old. He was also a member of the Three Eyes Society before, but he is an upright man and has used the law to save the lives of many ordinary people. Although The law he desperately upholds is worse than a piece of waste paper in the eyes of other members of the Three Eyes Society, but he must uphold the sacred status of the law even if he risks his life.

This old judge is a rare conscience among the Three Eyes Society.

He is respected by many people.

Therefore, this old judge was protected during the riots, and after the trial against the remnants of the Three-Eyed Society began, it was this old judge who sentenced hundreds of thousands of remnants of the Three-Eyed Society to different sentences - that is to say, The more than 100,000 heads of Three-Eyed Society members that fell were judged by his hands.

He has always emphasized that the law is sacred and guilty must be punished. He wants to make all those who despise the law realize:

It is very simple to take away a person's life. There are thousands of ways. Only the law can take away a person's life openly and without objection, and make him convinced.

9 am.

Looking at the time, the old judge, wearing a judge's robe with wide sleeves and a meticulously styled hair and headdress, stood in front of the judge's bench. Seeing the hour hand of the mechanical clock pointing to 9 o'clock, the old judge picked up the gavel in the tray and placed He knocked on the wooden support next to his hand and said:

"The court is in session!"

"Bring the defendant with you!" said the prosecutor on the side.

"Bring the defendant with you!" the staff member passed the message.

Hearing this, the hundreds of thousands of people under the trial stand were shocked. They stretched their necks, stood on tiptoes, and looked towards the exit of the high-altitude corridor that extended to the trial stand.

Along a corridor hundreds of meters long and less than two meters wide, escorted by more than a dozen robot soldiers, the defendant Lan Li and her defense lawyer Luo Xin appeared in front of hundreds of thousands of people.

It's like pouring a pot of hot oil into a pot of boiling water.

First there was a shout from a corner, and then there was an overwhelming amount of scolding and insults.

"Bitch, bitch!"

"You damn she-devil!"

"I want to push you down and fuck you to death."

"Devil, I can't wait to chop you into pieces and eat your flesh!"

"boom!"

Among the crowd below, several shoes were launched. If the high-altitude corridor was not high enough from the ground, they might have been smashed to death.

But even so, there was still a woman's high-heeled shoe. I don't know if it was hit by the person with strong arms, quickly and accurately, with only ten centimeters missing, it hit Luo Xin, who was protecting the teacher in the middle, and then took Gao Xin with him. The high heels falling in a curve caused a horrible scream in the dense crowd.

"If anyone throws shoes again, they will be driven out of the square immediately!" After the warning from the security personnel, the shoes flying in the air finally disappeared.

"Teacher, I have made sufficient preparations in the past few days. I am 100% sure that I can complete your defense of innocence."

Luo Xin said to Lan Li, with full confidence on his face.

Lan Li shook her head gently, her delicate face still showing no signs of fluctuation.

Looking at her expression, looking at the angry crowd below, and feeling what Wan Fu was referring to amid the countless vicious insults, Luo Xin had to admit that if he were in the position of a teacher, he would never be able to do what he did. She was so calm, no matter life or death, nothing could touch her heart - a heart like ice.

"The defendant has been present, distinguished Mr. Lan, can we enter the trial process?" The old judge turned his head and asked Lan Xiulong, who was in the special VIP seat.

"Okay." Lan Xiulong made a gesture of invitation.

The old judge nodded, banged the gavel, and said: "Start the first item of the trial procedure and read out the defendant's crime!"

"However, because of the defendant, the crime cannot be described in a short time. This court only made a one-hour video on the two charges of 'conspiracy' and 'crime against all humanity'. If there are any errors in the video If there are any errors or omissions, the defendant can point them out and we will verify them again.”

Lan Li nodded in agreement.

The old judge pressed a button and a documentary video was shown in front of all the Earqi people.

The video only played for two minutes before someone's eyes became bloodshot and red, their fingers clenched into fists, and the blood vessels on their foreheads bulged.

The video played for five minutes, and there were a lot of insults and shouts of death under the high platform. The sound was so loud that it almost overturned the trial platform.

Ten minutes into the video playback, the crowd in the audience had already set up a tall ladder and climbed up to the high platform with all their strength. Their eyes were blood red and they kept shouting "Kill her, kill her!". The highest level of the human ladder reaches seven or eight meters, and only one person is left to jump onto the high platform and attack the target he hates so much.

The old judge had to turn off the video screening, announce a temporary adjournment, and let the robot escort the defendant to escape.

Why were the people at the scene so excited?

Because this video, from the first second, tells the story of what "good things" the Three Eyes Society has done since its establishment over 2,800 years ago?

There is sufficient evidence and clear methods for the things the Three-Eyed Society does. The methods used are despicable and cruel, without any humanity at all. Regardless of one, ten, hundreds, or tens of millions, most of the people the Three-Eyed Society wants to kill are innocent people of the same kind. .

Especially when the video was played to the beginning of the "Slave Era", when the world's population of 7 billion dropped sharply to 500 million, even Lan Li, who looked indifferent, saw the image of Shura in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and her face was filled with emotion. There was also a flash of shock and surprise.

The mind is shaken.

This, this kind of thing, is it really possible for three eyes to do it?

6.5 billion people...

Because the crowd was so excited that it seriously interfered with the proceedings, the old judge had to adjourn the court for one day.

…

The trial continued the next day.

This time the court was fully prepared, adding robot defense forces to maintain order, and reducing the number of people who came to the square to observe the trial. The number was limited from more than 500,000 to 100,000. Shoes were not allowed in the court, and some hard metal objects were not allowed to enter the square. Clothing and accessories cannot be brought in either.

The old judge also emphasized: "If you want her to get the trial she deserves as soon as possible, please stop doing things that interfere with the work of the court."

The crowd in the audience finally calmed down.

The one-hour crime statement video was finally shown without interruption - even though during the process, there were dozens of loud shouts of "kill her" from the audience.

After the video was played, the old judge knocked his gavel and asked Lan Li: "Ms. Lan Li, do you accept these two charges?"

Lan Li looked stunned, her eyes unfocused, as if she didn't hear anything.

"Don't accept it!"

Luo Xin stood up and said: "She was not the one who formulated these crimes, and she was not the one who executed them. She knew nothing about anything. She didn't have a drop of blood on her hands. She was frozen in the freezer for more than two thousand years. , as an ancient, she has no obligation to bear her crimes for future generations!"

"Legally, there is no provision that requires a father to be punished for his son's crime because of improper education."

"She is innocent!"

As soon as Luo Xin said these words, the audience was in an uproar.

"Quia, quibble!"

"She committed a heinous crime. It was she who founded the Three Eyes Society."

"You bastard who defends the devil, you're guilty too, so go die too!"

Although there were countless scoldings from the audience, and several positive lawyers on the stage also sternly refuted the absurdity of Luo Xin's words, because most of these lawyers were "temporary lawyers" and knew nothing about the law, although morally, they They all accused Lan Li of being the devil who caused all the disasters, but in terms of law, they really couldn't compare to Luo Xin, who had memorized the entire "Code".

Facing Luo Xin, who was sharp-tongued and well-argued, the defense lawyers were all speechless.

For more than ten days, under Luo Xin's outstanding eloquence and flawless theory, the advocates who claimed to be good eloquents changed one after another, and no one could refute Luo Xin.

Among the hundreds of charges, not one charge was successfully placed on Lan Li.

This situation has made hundreds of millions of Erqi people in front of the TV depressed and uncomfortable, and made a large number of positive lawyers banging their heads, feeling annoyed, and hating their own uselessness.

The old judge also frowned, not knowing how to proceed when all the alleged crimes were denied.

…

Feitian number.

"This trial can move to the next stage. The law cannot judge her, but morality can."

"The real test can begin. This question, the question that determines the fate of the Erqi people, can be handed out."

Yun Xinghe said to Lan Xiulong on the screen, with a hint of expectant smile on his lips.
