I Slay Demons in the Demon City/
Chapter 37 Preferential Treatment
"Eh, is it over just like that?"
Ma Ji's heart is unwilling. He stands still at the same place..
The county magistrate sentenced him to bail pending trial and imprisoned him for three days. This was absolutely unacceptable!
At this moment, the atmosphere in the court changed drastically..
The county magistrate began to take off his black hat, the official robe of a 9-grade sesame official, and his sunglasses were casually thrown on the stage..
The advisors are undressing, the officers are undressing..
Cao Charlie walked to Ma Ji's side and patted Ma Ji on the shoulder with a lewd smile on his face.
"Relax, buddy, the show's over..
Why don't you stop making such a long face?
I'll treat you to dinner later, and my father will personally accompany you to dinner!"
Ma Ji was dumbfounded. What was going on?
Acting? Was everything just acting?
Charlie Cao pointed to the camera on the wall and said to Ma Ji,
"The whole trial was broadcast live..
The reason why the county magistrate did and said that just now was all an act!
Now that the play is over, relax. 1:00..”
Ma Ji smiled bitterly.
" Live broadcast? Sentencing me to three days of detention, how can I relax?"
At this moment, the new county magistrate walked toward Ma Ji with vigorous strides..
Ma Ji looked at this affable county magistrate in a suit with a silver badge on his chest. He was simply a different person..
"Mr. Ma, Master Ma, I've heard so much about you..
See you today. You're really a talent. You're elegant..
Welcome, welcome, welcome to our county government office!"
Ma Ji did not dare to reach out and shake hands with the county magistrate's warm hands..
The situation changed so quickly that Ma Ji could not accept it at once. He could only smile bitterly and say,
"I'm a guilty person. How can I be embarrassed to shake hands with you?
I'm ugly..”
The county magistrate is the first to praise Ma Ji, that is, he is a talented and elegant person, so that Ma Ji has the feeling of meeting an old friend in another country--
Who said that the people of Luosha Kingdom are all beautiful and ugly? I'm anxious with him!
"Well, Mr. Ma, Master Ma, you don't have to mind the verdict. Our verdict can be changed at any time..
The reason why it was staged like this was only for the reporters outside, for the audience to see..
You don't have to take these things to heart!
Ah…it's time for dinner now. Let's go eat, okay?"
After saying that, he did not wait for Ma Ji to agree or disagree. The county magistrate bent down and made an invitation gesture. He invited Ma Ji to the banquet..
"Oh, are there any more reporters outside?"
Ma Ji is a little nervous..
After all, you are now the defendant, the sentenced person. Facing the public, you are a little embarrassed..
Charlie Cao said on the side of 1:
"Ma Ji, your matter has caused a stir throughout the entire county..
Journalists are now targeting you as a hot story, and your every move is their top priority..
Also, press conferences are essential to court procedure, so just say a few words and go through the process!
Don't worry, this incident won't affect your image..”
Or young people? Know young people?.
Image, for young people, that's number one..
Ma Ji scratched his head and said:
"So, should we go eat first, or do we go for an interview first?"
The magistrate waved his hand gently and said:
"The press conference is a matter of convenience..
Mr. Ma, come with me!"
The county magistrate and the advisor walked in front, Ma Ji and Cao Charlie walked behind, and walked out of the main entrance of the court.
12 The guards are already outside the gate to maintain order..
Sure enough, there were reporters outside..
Suddenly, the flash lights flashed into one, and the camera lens was pointed at the horse..
Dear> friends, welcome to the interview..
Welcome to supervise our work.
This... press conference only lasts 5 minutes, please ask questions as soon as possible.”
Therefore, the reporters pushed and pushed, all wanting Ma Ji to accept their own exclusive interview, even if Ma Ji answered a question, it was exclusive news, and the flow was great..
After a series of riots, the physically strong naturally become the lucky interviewers..
. "Master Ma, I heard that you injured Yao Niming, the attending surgeon at the county hospital. What exactly happened?"
" Master Ma, you can be released on bail within three days. Do you have any friends or lawyers who can help you obtain bail?"
" Ma Ji! As a foreigner, how could you have the guts to harm people in Luosha? Aren't you afraid that Luosha's laws will punish you severely?"
In the face of reporters 'competing questions, 1 refused to answer.
He concluded with a few short sentences in reply:
"Ah, dear journalists, thank you for your concern..
Regarding Dr. Yao's matter, I have already explained the cause and effect of this matter in the hospital lobby. You can go to the county national hospital to interview those patients. He will give you first-hand information so that you can get what you want to know..
Here, I believe that your country's laws are fair and strict, and will give me fair treatment.”
Thank you!"
Obviously, Ma Ji's answer did not satisfy the reporters..
Therefore, many reporters put their microphones in front of the county magistrate:
"May I ask your Excellency, what do you think of Ma Ji's case?"
" Did Ma Ji's actions violate the criminal law? I graduated from the law department. According to our country's laws, criminals who seriously hurt doctors will be sentenced to at least three years in prison, not three days in detention?"
" May I ask if the county government can give Ma Ji preferential treatment in life? Can it guarantee that he won't be tortured to extort confessions?"
……
In the face of all kinds of questions, Cao County Mayor's answer is even shorter:
"We will also handle this case according to the law, Ma Ji will not be treated unfairly here.".
Thank you all for your concern!
Time's up. Press conference over..”
The county government press conference is over, but the reporters won't stop there..
They can't get satisfactory answers here. They will go to the county hospital to interview patients as Ma Ji said..
Journalists especially hope to get first-hand information, so that their newspapers and TV stations will have more prestige and influence, and the higher the income will be..
……
Seeing a large table of fine wine and delicacies, Ma Ji was convinced that he had been given preferential treatment, and special preferential treatment..
Where in the world would a suspect who was released on bail eat at the same table as the judge and have a drink?
" This is really too preferential! Thank you, County Mayor!"
Ma Ji put down his glass, embarrassed..
Cao county magistrate wind light cloud light wave hand:
You don't have to worry about Doctor Yao's matter. His medical ethics are not good. The people of the county have long complained..
I was about to take him over and reprimand him a few words and punish him slightly. Ma Xianshi 1 took the initiative and just took the place of my work. I thank you too late!
This cup is a toast to the righteous Immortal Master Ma!"
The alcohol content of Luosha Kingdom's wine is very high, basically no lower than 50 degrees. If Ma Ji hadn't cultivated before, he would probably have poured one glass..
Now he was an immortal cultivator. The genuine Qi in his dantian could refine alcohol. It could be said that he would not get drunk after drinking a thousand cups..
After three rounds of drinking, Cao County Mayor revealed the truth:
"Immortal Master Ma, the reason why you can receive such treatment is actually because the Nine Madness Abbot of Golden Light Temple took care of you!
If it were anyone else, I wouldn't be so polite.
Some reporters 'questions are too childish, but they are not groundless..
The law of Russia clearly stipulates that anyone who harms a doctor will be sentenced to more than three years in prison..
But when it came to you, it became three days…"
Speaking of this, Cao County Mayor stopped here, but the final sound of the word "Tian" was long, and it could be said that the lingering sound lingered for 3 days--
You taste it, you taste it!
At the same time, Cao County Mayor's ardent eyes, Inspector Cao Charlie's ardent eyes, and the ardent eyes of the advisor accompanying Ma Ji were all looking at Ma Ji, waiting for Ma Ji to make a statement after careful evaluation..
Ma Ji was stunned!
Stunned, he looked at the three ardent people. One of them looked like he was engaged in a battle in his brain and was digesting and thinking carefully. Then, he cracked his mouth and smiled.
"Oh, I see. Salmon is delicious. The meat is delicate and thornless. The fragrance is appropriate. Thank you for your hospitality!"
Damn it! Three people fell for it..
What do you mean by that?
I tell you nine crazy abbots, and you say salmon tastes good?
County Mayor Cao couldn't help but go crazy. He drank a mouthful of Luosha's national wine, Mao Tai, to calm down. Then, he wiped his face and changed his expression. He became serious.
"Master Ma is very powerful, admirable..
However, he was young after all, and he still needed to train in this worldly experience!
You are a guest from afar. Abbot 9, Dean Fu, and I have all given you special treatment. With your intelligence, you should be able to feel it, right?
Then why is this cut?
We could have adopted another way of treating foreign guests. Why are we giving you such preferential treatment?
Immortal Master Ma, you should show something!"
