Chapter 323: Fairness, Justice, and the Power of the Law [I'm Sorry, There's Only One Shift Tonight]
“...... To sum up, the killing of the ploughing cattle by the vertical sword is only a farmer's words, and it is impossible for them to distinguish the difference between the 'Huoyunlin Sword' and the ordinary fire sword technique and magic technique without the vision of the Immortal Dao, which is not enough as conclusive evidence...... Xiao Gongzi still has an alibi......"
"Oppose, the nobles of Shenjing are all stakeholders......"
"Oppose! This is slander! If you only judge the relatives and relatives based on the origin of the exercises, then there are few credible people in the Immortal Dao!"
Fu Silu, the deacon of the Shenjing Criminal Law Division, listened to the argument of the two lawyers in front of him with great boredom. He began to feel that "there is no doubt about the guilt" was a redundant principle.
However, he is a judge, and he must not have selfish thoughts and private feelings, and he must be a great public.
The law is not just a guardian of people, it needs to be guarded by people. If the law enforcers are unable to hold the law, then the law becomes a joke. All a qualified enforcer can do is to get rid of his personal feelings and act according to the law. Even if you feel that the law is lacking, you can only write to the legislator, and you still need to follow the rules before the law is changed.
This is not rigidity, but guarding, guarding the order that belongs to the human race and humanity, and maintaining the low entropy of this civilization.
So. Fu Silu finally sighed heavily: "Can the plaintiff still have evidence?"
The plaintiff's lawyer struggled for a moment and said, "No." ”
"The court is now adjourned, and the verdict is made after the judge has consulted with the officials. ”
The court of the Criminal Law Division is quite spacious and has multiple seats, and the plaintiff and defendant are separated from the public court, close to the main door of the public court. They were facing the judges' seats. The inquisitor's seat was one level higher than all the seats, and there was a long chest-high table in front of it. To the left and right of the inquisitor, there are two master bookkeepers and two prosecutors. These two groups are responsible for recording and monitoring whether the inquisitors have committed justice. Witnesses are seated in the side, while there is no dedicated seat for the advocate.
Wang Qi looked at the defendant. It was a husband and wife, both gray-haired and not young. They've been trembling ever since they were brought here. At first, he didn't even sit in the preset seat, but knelt on the ground and shouted "Lord Qingtian". Now sitting on the chair, I am still sitting upright, as if I am afraid that the chair will be dirty.
On the other hand, the defendant was a typical Shinkyo suke Fa Xiu. A flashy ritual equipment. His face was full of indifference, and he played with the flames in his hands, occasionally laughing with his lawyer.
Cases are not unusual. A beginner monk threw a sword trick in the air, which prevented the flying sword from falling to the ground, ruining the couple's farmland and killing the oxen carrying the harvested grain. In this case, if the monk threw two pieces of gold and silver in his hand, the matter would almost be over. But this crime did not have this discipline.
Wang Qi shook his head slightly: "This Nima, it's very clear which side is wrong, right? I see that Uncle Fu also has a plan in his heart." But I look at him, as if the verdict is not in favor of the couple?"
Chen Feng, who was beside him, replied in a low voice: "There is no suspicion of guilt. ”
There is no conclusive evidence to prove the guilt of the accused. There is no evidence that he is not guilty, so he is judged as not guilty.
Even if "justice is at ease in the hearts of the people," it is absolutely not possible to let that "people's hearts" dictate the verdict.
It sounds ruthless and doesn't feel like "fair and just". But in fact, only in this way can relative fairness and justice be guaranteed. The subjective purpose of the enforcer can be subjective outcome justice, and the purpose of the legislator can also be subjective outcome justice, but the logic inherent in the law itself can only be objective procedural justice.
Heaven and earth are unkind. It is because being kind to some people will inevitably lead to "unkindness" towards others. Even if subjectively there is no such concept. Objectively, it will also form favoritism and injustice. The law is like the way, and the people must be used as dogs, and there is no need to love or not to love.
In this way, "everyone is equal before the law".
When Chen Feng replied to this sentence, he was undoubtedly proud. Perhaps there is an injustice caused by a legal lapse. However, the leak will be plugged, and the damage to the farmer will be compensated by the Peacekeeping Division. Even their safety is guaranteed by the Peacekeeping Division. If this pair of farmers and farmers are malice from this young master in the future, then the Criminal Law Department does not mind what the consequences of re-educating and challenging the majesty of the law will be.
Wang Qi closed his eyes. In a flash. He thinks a lot from the perspective of humanity, from the perspective of a legislator, from the perspective of monks and mortals. Countless strategies that may arise in the case of "disorder" crossed his mind, and the complete information dynamic game operation of multiple interest groups unfolded.
If you look at it according to the jurisprudence on earth, Xianmeng Law has some characteristics of the civil law system, but in essence it is more like the Chinese legal system after modernization. It exists only for the purpose of administering the monks, and is something like a "precept" that is shared by all monks.
Then, Wang Qi sighed softly: "I see." ”
Chen Feng was curious: "What do you think?"
"The Immortal League's law strictly forbids monks from harming mortals' property or even killing or injuring mortal lives, and this article is separate from the monk's damage to monks' property. Generally speaking, if a monk damages a monk's property, if the victim does not pursue it, it can also be trivialized. However, once the victim is a mortal, the criminal law department will investigate on behalf of the victim if he does not pursue the case. This is to ask many cultivators to restrain themselves and not squander their strength. Judging from the results, this is to make the cultivator not enslaved by his own power, but for the sake of the monk himself. ”
And so it is with the absence of suspicion. Suspicion of guilt is never the embodiment of the idea of 'benefiting the defendant', and the law of the Immortal League is designed to manage monks, and the defendant can only be monks. And every monk is a part of the institution of the Immortal League, and can produce functions that they do not have in this system, so except for some monks who have a bad influence on them, the Immortal League generally does not do the death penalty, but mainly educates and reforms. Even if the victim forgives and restitulates, he needs to be sentenced to imprisonment and a public apology. ”
"Since there is no 'intermediary law cultivation' at the legal level, and there is no distinction between Shenjing monks, these Shenjing monks can enjoy this right even if they are just parasites. Because the authority of the law is the basis of its enforceability, righteous indignation for violating the principle of guiltlessness in order to severely punish this individual will only reduce the enforceability of the law and victimize more people......"
Chen Feng interrupted Wang Qi's words with a smile and a smile: "Why do you say this, I think the majesty of the law is completely gone?"
On the contrary, this is a testament to the wisdom of the sages in the law. Wang Qi shook his head and said, "The foundation of the existence of the Immortal Alliance. It is the fact that 'division of labor and cooperation is more efficient'. It is precisely because it is a boat and car towards the avenue that some monks are willing to come up. The purpose of the legislators is also to maintain the stability of the car, the boat itself, and not to let it disperse. If the law causes the rudder of the boat to deviate and the wheel of the car to break, I am afraid that the Immortal Alliance itself will cease to exist - besides, there is no perfect law. The law itself had to be revised again and again before it could approach true justice. ”
Chen Feng shook his head: "You have a lot of sense. But why do I always feel that something is wrong?"
"You are 'I am for all and everyone is for me' and I am 'all for me and for all', showing similar expressions and having the same purpose, but with a different internal logic. Wang Qi pointed to his head: "And this is the way to analyze this thing with Yi Tiansuan." The premise of the game is that 'every individual has an instinct for self-interest as a living being'. Legislators also have legislators' positions. ”
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Chen Feng skipped this discussion of the law: "What happened to the matter of the law?"
"I feel that if it goes well, it won't be long before it can be done. Wang Qi nodded and asked, "What about you?"
"If only I could perceive it. I think I'll be able to complete the testimonies directly. But I'm really not as good as you in this regard. Chen Feng shook his head helplessly.
The reason why the two of them are here is to prove their Shinto-humane theory and use it to deduce a dharma.
Wang Qi and the three of them positioned the foundation of the first humane law as "law". For Wang Qi, among the many humanitarian rules, the law is the clearest one, unlike the economy and commerce, where different factions have different interpretations. As a lawyer, Chenfeng is also familiar enough with the law, and this "power of the law" is also Chenfeng's ideal.
Other than that. The LAN allocated to Zhao Qingfeng is the "precept" of the code of conduct for believers, which is the "Code of Conduct for Prison Life in the Shenjing Criminal Law Division". It also proves that the Law is indeed feasible as the basis for the "New Shinto Law."
After applying, Wang Qi was granted the right to observe from the lobby of the Criminal Law Department or to patrol the prison as an "assistant police officer". The Immortal League has always been based on seeking the truth, and as long as the application is substantiated, no matter how outrageous it is, there is a certain chance of passing.
All the people here are acting according to something called the Law. The prisoners' food, clothing, daily behavior, and daily behavior were the result of the punishment of the law. The decisions made by the judges are the process of the law. Even that, the argument of the two lawyers. It also revolves around the "law".
Here, the law seems to be more than just a metaphysical being. It does not know how to act in reason and stop at the Tao, but in the law and in the art, which really exists in everyone's thinking.
And as long as there is a law in the mind, and the behavior is born according to the law. Then their soul fluctuations must also contain the algorithm of "law".
In living, walking, arguing, and thinking, people are connected with each other and temporarily become a whole internal being. They use language to convey information and use behavior to memorize information. These spirits are reflected in their souls and disturb their souls.
The redundant power of the soul emitted a special high-spirit electromagnetic wave. The same electromagnetic wave crests and troughs overlap and expand, and eventually merge into one strand.
The law itself is order. It does not feel physically bound like religious precepts, but it is tighter than all religious precepts. This order allows the spiritual power to continue to converge.
This is the power of the law.
The reason why Wang Qi and Chen Feng are here is to find out that power.
Even during the trial, Wang Qi was radiating the power of holy light into the air. And Chenfeng's fingertips also burned with a life flame. They wanted to inject this negative entropy into the "spirit of law", to strengthen it to the point where it could be detected by the monks, or to transform it into a more perceptible form.
Soon, the inquisitor came out. He reluctantly announced that the defendant was acquitted, the plaintiff's losses were borne by the Peacekeeping Division, and the defendant's safety was maintained by the security envoys of the Peacekeeping Division. The enforcement envoy of the Criminal Law Department has assigned personnel to pay attention to the case.
Subjective justice was not asserted, but the rules of the Immortal League were consolidated by this trial, and the loopholes exposed would serve as an impetus for the self-improvement of the judicial system, and the old couple was compensated for their losses.
This is the result of this round of "game". Except for the Shenjing nobleman who wasted time and energy in vain, the interests of each involved party were guaranteed.
The law was carried out at this moment. In an instant, a mysterious power emerged in the lobby.
Chen Feng finally sensed something, and his hand shook, almost throwing out the flame of life.
And at that moment, Wang Qi was distracted. He looked at the couple and said to himself - it shouldn't be like this.
He feels that this set of strategies is actually not optimal.
The individual strength of the monk is too strong for mortals to actually grasp the "evidence". And the difference in status between monks and mortals also makes punishment and compensation meaningless. Even if similar principles were conceived, the laws of this world would not be able to achieve the true "legal equality" of mortals and monks as they did on Earth.
"Hey!" Chen Feng tugged Wang Qi's sleeve: "What kind of god are you going at this time!" (to be continued......)
PS: I'm sorry guys...... The continuous early morning update makes the poor road a little tired, and the second one is a little more unable to write, so I will make up for it tomorrow.
I'm sorry.
