988 Spring Blossoms

In just three days, the Nyasaland and Los Angeles governments issued a series of decisions on strengthening security measures around the schools, which were unprecedentedly efficient.

Los Angeles No. 1 High School is the best secondary school in Nyasaland in terms of hardware and software facilities, not only Arthur and Gavin, but also many children of state and city officials are also studying in Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School, so the state and city legislatures passed the relevant laws as quickly as possible.

The trial of the middle-aged man who stabbed Tom is also underway, the guy is indeed mentally abnormal, and he also said that he did not know why he came to Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School with a weapon that day, and the investigation showed that he had nothing to do with Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School.

Since nothing could be found, the Los Angeles Police Department brought the case to court as quickly as possible, and the middle-aged man was sentenced to life in prison for first-degree murder and had to serve his sentence on Robben Island, off the coast of Cape Town.

The verdict has caused controversy over whether life imprisonment should be imposed, but whether Robben Island Prison is still necessary.

All of southern Africa knows that Robben Island is a devil's cave, and very few prisoners serving sentences on Robben Island survive past five years.

Robben Island is one of the legacy of the colonial government, which became a prison for felons as early as the colonial government, and after the establishment of the Federal Government of Southern Africa, this tradition was preserved, and felons were still sent to Robben Island to serve their sentences.

In this context, the purpose of sending felons to Robben Island to serve their sentences is not to treat the disease and save people, but to eradicate future problems.

"People who oppose sending felons to Robben Island to serve their sentences are not because the environment on Robben Island is too bad, but because the felons don't generate enough benefits, and they think it's more cost-effective to send those convicts to the mines to serve their sentences, and honestly, I think it's more beneficial." Anton also does not support sending felons to Robben Island to serve their sentences, and criminals in Nyasaland are more likely to be sent directly to the United Mining Company in Baja Katanga, where there is a better profit.

In Nyasaland, criminals are also self-sufficient while serving their sentences, the government does not cover the living expenses of the inmates, and the inmates do not want to be lazy at the Basa Katanga United Mining Company, and the overseers with great power have a way to make the lazy people diligent.

"It is not uncommon for felons to be sentenced for life, knowing that there is no possibility of reducing their sentences, and to deliberately commit crimes in order to die a quick death while serving their sentences." Roque did not agree to send felons to the Baj-Katanga United Mining Company, many of whom are anti-social and anti-human at heart, and even if they are released, they are likely to re-offend and go to prison because they cannot integrate into society.

To put it bluntly, the law of Nyasaland is not designed to save criminals, criminals can be saved, so who will save the victims.

The cost of breaking the law in Nyasaland is very high, and even theft can be punishable by death if it is due to multiple offenses or if the amount is huge.

Moreover, Nyasaland's criminal law adopts a progressive system, some seemingly not serious crimes, but because of multiple crimes, it can also lead to extremely serious consequences, so almost no one in Nyasaland has achieved such an initiative as entering the palace three times, the first theft is sentenced to three years in prison, and the second time it is possible to sentence ten years.

"Then can we consider relaxing the requirement for commutation and giving these felons some hope—" Anton suggested another possibility, if the inmates were properly given hope, then it would indeed have a promoting effect on some people.

People who break the law and commit crimes are not all heinous, and some people make big mistakes because of impulse.

However, this is not an excuse to break the law and commit crimes, impulsiveness is also a sign of lack of self-control, animals can still be patient when hunting, and impulsiveness is actually just an excuse.

In the final analysis, it is still evil in the heart, so it will be impulsive.

"No, if the requirement for commutation is relaxed, it will cause more problems." If Roque does not relax the commutation of the sentence, if he really wants to relax, then the criminal law will no longer have a deterrent effect.

If you think about it with your feet, if you relax the requirements for commutation, then more and more serious problems will arise immediately, and Roque will never relax on this issue, even if Arthur or Gavin break the law and commit crimes, Roque will personally bring them to justice, and will definitely not get them out of prison early through commutation.

To put it mildly, born in a family like Roque, you have to be brain-dead to use illegal means to achieve your goals, if Arthur and Gavin are really benzene to that extent, then Arthur and Gavin have no need to cultivate.

The benefits of having more children at this time will come out, the tuba can be practiced again if the tuba is abolished, and the trumpet can be cultivated if one is not good, as long as there are many children, you can always find a qualified inheritance title.

Although Roque rejected Anton's suggestion, Anton was not too disappointed, for his own children, Anton also asked for this, since the law is the bottom line of behavior agreed by the whole society, then the bottom line cannot be broken.

At the end of January, the rebellion in British Somalia finally subsided, and the 2nd Cavalry Division was to be stationed in British Somalia for a period of time to ensure that the rebellion would not recur, and Angel returned to Nyasaland from British Somalia ahead of schedule to marry the daughter of George, the mayor of Los Angeles, according to Anton's arrangement.

This George is the George who once served as the deputy director of the Qing Customs Office in London, in 02 George and Duncan, Xia Zuo came to Southern Africa, after Roque was named Baron of Nyasaland, George came to work in Nyasaland, and now he is the mayor of Los Angeles.

As the center of gravity of Nyasaland's rule, the position of mayor of Los Angeles is high and powerful, George, as a relatively senior official around Roque, is very trusted by Roque, George's daughter is called Qiao Jingyan, graduated from the University of Nyasaland, and now works at the RAND Bank.

When Angel returned to Nyasaland, she reported to Fort Eagle in Roque as soon as possible.

Now Nyasaland, Fort Eagle is the undisputed heart, under Fort Eagle is the farms of Anton and George and other high-ranking officials in Nyasaland, standing in Fort Eagle, it is no longer possible to overlook the whole territory of Los Angeles, which is getting bigger and bigger, and only the lonely mountain of Fort Eagle is left around Los Angeles.

For Angel and Barton, Phyllis is also very concerned about the juniors, so when she saw Angel, Phyllis couldn't help but laugh.

"Anqi, congratulations, Jingyan is a very good girl, now that she has reached the position of regional manager, you have to be careful, if you mess around outside, Jingyan will not let you go." Phyllis's words hit the surface a little hard, and Roque was a little weak when he heard it.

Angel's expression was broken, but she didn't dare to refute that although Ida was in a high position, Phyllis was the real Lady of Nyasaland.

Roque didn't dare to refute, Roque also had a stain on this issue and was not qualified to speak.

Fortunately, Phyllis knows how to be proportionate and does not chase after this issue, men, especially men of Roque's level, it is normal to make some mistakes on this issue, if you really want to worry about it, don't pass that day.

"Have you ever seen Jingyan? That girl is nice and worth cherishing. Roque didn't talk much, and seeing that Angel's generation had finally started a family, Roque was still very relieved in his heart.

Patton had already married his fiancée a week earlier, the wedding was held at the King's Chapel in Pretoria, Buck was a member of Parliament, and Douglas was the Minister of Education and Health, so the wedding was unprecedented, and Roarke attended Patton's wedding as the officiant.

This is the first time that Roque has appeared at the wedding scene as the officiant, Buck and Roque have known each other for fifteen years, they are Roque's closest comrades-in-arms, and they are the spokespersons of all Chinese in Southern Africa in Congress.

Angel and Qiao Jingyan's wedding, Roque will also attend as the officiant, but the wedding is not held in Pretoria, but in the Matilda Church in Los Angeles, this church was funded by Henry, construction began five years ago, and it was completed just last year, and it is unparalleled in southern Africa in terms of scale.

"I know my lord, and I will take on my responsibilities as a husband." An Qi's expression was slightly bitter, there was no longer the previous red rope on his wrist, since he had a family, there were some things that should be given up.

"The responsibilities that should be fulfilled include making Jingyan happy, don't care what you did before, when you get married, you have to take on the responsibilities of your husband." Phyllis is still beating intentionally or unintentionally, British men are actually very happy, the red flag at home does not fall, and the colorful flags flutter outside.

Of course, since you are bohemian, then you have to be humble, Winston's mother, known as the "world's first beauty", is said to have a leg with the king, and rights and obligations are never one-sided.

"I will, Aunt Phyllis, after getting married, I want to go back to Europe and participate in the war against Russia." Angel herself has an idea, the war of the Entente against Russia has been preparing for half a year, and it has not officially begun, and the efficiency of democracy is like this.

As soon as the world war ended, the Entente began to prepare for war against Russia, but because the Paris Peace Conference was not yet over, the Entente's focus did not shift to this aspect.

Now the Entente is finally ready to start a war against the new Russian government when spring blooms, and now the war is not just about recovering the money that the new Russian government owes to the British Empire, but also about many other factors.
