Tacitus in love, Plato in trap

"Evidence 10..." Attorney Wang Shiqi looked up at Fang Quan, and then continued, "A handwritten statement, the original..." She raised her eyes again to look at Fang Quan, and then continued, "The purpose of the proof is..."

"Hey, what, Wei Shilang, don't talk to the other two people," Yi Zhongming behind him couldn't help interjecting, "Even if you want to talk, can you control the volume? Right now, the three of you are still cross-examining. The volume almost overwhelms your lawyers!"

The three plaintiffs apologized in embarrassment, but after a while, they started muttering again.Not only them, but the two defendants also seemed to be tired, especially the lawyer Wang Xiongying, who was yawning profusely.

I don’t need any other reasons, I don’t need to shirk any responsibility, it’s all my own fault for becoming like this... Not daring to look Wang Shiqi’s eyes directly, Fang Quan pretended to be staring at the screen, his hands like chickens pecking at rice Poking on the keyboard.

It has been more than an hour since the trial began, and the plaintiff has not yet submitted the evidence.It is true that there is a lot of evidence, but Fang Quan himself is the real key to the problem-because he does not know the relationship between the parties, Fang Quan has to react for a few more seconds every time he encounters content such as names of people. As a result, the typing work at hand will naturally slow down, and when the movement of the hands slows down, the speed of the brain will also slow down, and so on, a vicious circle, Fang Quan's typing speed is getting slower and slower, even if he is average He also struggled to record the sexual content.

"...It proves that Jian Tongsheng, who is not involved in the case, has given up his right to inherit... Sigh..." Yi Zhongming sighed unabashedly, "Fang Quan, Fang Quan, are you a fish? Is your memory only seven seconds? You can't let it go. Shall I repeat every sentence of the party for you? If you want to go on like this, how long will the court be held!"

"..."

I can't understand, typing is slow, and now I can't even remember what the person said just now... Not to mention Yi Zhongming, even Fang Quan himself wants to sigh.His head hurts like a pinprick, his fingers feel as heavy as lead, and his chest feels like a stone is pressed against his breath—Fang Quan never felt that being a clerk would be such a torment. If he could, he would think The people who left this court rushed out yelling and never came back.

But sadly, it's clearly not "okay" to do this.

What is even more sad is that the entire trial procedure has not yet been completed halfway.

"The plaintiff has no other evidence to submit, right? Sigh," Yi Zhongming sighed behind him, Fang Quan was too lazy to count, "Okay, let the defendant cross-examine!"

The defendant's lawyer, Wang Xiongying, took the thick stack of evidence from Fang Quan, flipped through it casually, chatted with the defendant himself, and then said to Yi Zhongming: "We are concerned about the authenticity, relevance and purpose of the evidence. No objection."

"What?" This time it was the plaintiff 3 who was still a little emotional, "You didn't even have a good look at it before you have any objections?!"

"That's right," the man from plaintiff 1 also said, "We have a lot of evidence that can overturn what you said just now. You just admitted it so casually, and it always feels suspicious!"

"Hey, look at what you said! It's basically easy for me to refute your evidence, but considering that the clerk's little brother seems to be a little... Forget it, I won't say it~~ In short, I just take care of the clerk Little brother!"

"!!!" Fang Quan shrank back in shame, trying to hide his whole body behind the computer screen——as the person who least needs presence in the entire court, the current self can have such a significant impact on the entire case/case The trial process!In case the defendant's lawyer did not issue cross-examination opinions to affect the final verdict in order to take care of his record level, wouldn't it be...

"Come on, Fang Quan, write that all the original evidence should be returned to the plaintiff, and the copies should be kept in the case file." After checking the plaintiff's evidence himself, Yi Zhongming turned to the defendant, "Then it's time for you to be accused..."

"Cross-examination? I'm sorry Judge Yi, we probably have to apply for a judicial appraisal first." The defendant Yan Yili said calmly.

???

"What?!"

"Since the plaintiffs have always said that this is the sage cup handed down by their Dong family's ancestors," the defendant continued, regardless of the somewhat astonished crowd, "then it is enough to identify the age of this cup?"

silence.

"Then what..." Yi Zhongming was the first to react, "I need to inform you that if you apply for a judicial appraisal, then you will bear the appraisal fee."

"Of course we know that."

"So what's your opinion, plaintiff?"

"It's okay," Plaintiff 1 said after discussing with several other plaintiffs, "what should be ours will always be ours, and we don't mind spending a little more time."

Yi Zhongming nodded, and dropped the gavel: "Then the court will be adjourned today, and the judicial appraisal agency will be decided by lottery after the court."

This is the end of...? !

The relief came so suddenly that Fang Quan was in a trance. He still felt erratic until all the parties and agents signed.After packing up his things, he happily ran to Yi Zhongming who stayed behind to assist him: "Today's court is really... Don't you think the defendant should have filed an application for judicial appraisal earlier? It really seems like a waste of judicial resources, haha!"

"Humph."

Yi Zhongming gave him a hard look, and then strode out of the courtroom.Fang Quan's heart skipped a beat, and he closed his mouth and followed silently as if waking up from a dream.

This memory... I really belong to the fish...

If the defendant hadn't filed an application for forensic appraisal, it is not difficult to imagine that today's court would not be able to survive by itself.When the most basic and only commendable "short recording" becomes "slow recording", what face and position do I have to talk about the remaining things?

"Xiao Yi, your court is over too? It's pretty fast!" Sister Ping came down the stairs with a briefcase in her hand.

"It's going to be fast without you and Judge Zheng—speaking of our party today is going to have a judicial appraisal, and we're waiting over there, you go and go through the formalities with him."

"Now? I'm afraid time is a little tight..." Sister Ping showed a embarrassed expression, "I have to go to the courtyard for training soon, and it happens that the chief judge and Judge Zheng are also going to the courtyard, so I have to go with them. Already in the car, so..."

"Well, then I'll go..."

"Let me go and explain to them! After all, I am responsible for these matters." Sister Ping smiled slightly, "By the way, Xiao Yi, didn't you say that you have a case to appeal? Today happens to be Wednesday, so I'll let you know Help you carry the papers to the yard!"

"Ah, bad!!!"

Hearing about the appeal case, Fang Quan exclaimed.Yi Zhongming seemed to have expected this to happen a long time ago, sighed softly, and turned to Sister Ping: "As you can see, we haven't cleared the paper yet."

"Then we can only wait for next week... You must pay attention to the time limit, don't exceed it!" Sister Ping patted Yi Zhongming's arm, and then walked quickly to several parties waiting outside the court.And Fang Quan followed Yi Zhongming back to the upstairs office without saying a word.

"So... I'm sorry..." As soon as he returned to the office, Fang Quan mustered up the courage to apologize, "About the case to be appealed... and today's court..."

Yi Zhongming ignored him, but rummaged through Fang Quan's desk: "Where is the appeal case? Bring it here."

"Ah, here..."

"OK."

Picking up the case file, Yi Zhongming sat back in his seat, took down the clip, and lifted the kraft paper covering the outside to check the materials inside.

"Well... I'll clear this paper, I don't need you--okay..."

Slender fingers fluttered between the papers, sometimes adjusting the order of the materials, sometimes picking up the pen to fill in relevant information, and sometimes pasting evidence on the white paper—this kind of realm is impossible for Fang Quan to achieve, so here I leave it to Yi Zhong Forget it.

"I'm really sorry to ask you to clean it up for me..." Fang Quan simply stood beside Yi Zhongming in order to appreciate his gesture of cleaning up the file, "I really deserve to be Yi... who has been a clerk for three years... Judge, with this speed, the papers will be cleared in no time hahaha..."

Yi Zhongming didn't respond, he estimated the thickness of the entire file with his eyes, and then picked out the evidence with his thumb and index finger and put it aside.

"If I had this speed, let alone this appeal case, I would have finished those papers in the cabinet long ago—three years of experience as a clerk is really not enough..."

Without squinting, Yi Zhong moved the court hearing schedule to the front of the court transcript.

"The so-called practice makes perfect, if I concentrate on clearing the papers for several months, I can probably achieve your level... But this is unlikely, after all, I hold courts, write subpoenas, answer calls, and contact parties every day. Proofreading documents is already busy enough, and occasionally I have to do some things for the chief judge and judge Zheng, and I basically don’t have time to clear the papers——If you can really finish all the papers, you will be superhuman!"

Yi Zhongming flicked to the back of the dossier, checked the date of receipt of the last party, and entered the closing date in the dossier cover template on the computer.

"I know someone can do it, for example, Judge Yi~~" Unbearable to be ignored all the time, Fang Quan unconsciously raised his voice, "But I am a mortal, it is impossible to do it from the beginning It’s so good! As soon as I joined the job, I was asked to take on all the work of the clerk, and it’s normal if I can’t finish it or fail to do it right?!”

Yi Zhongming stood up, but he still didn't look at Fang Quan, but took out the kraft paper for printing the cover of the dossier from the cabinet, and stuffed it into the printer.

"Let's talk about the court session just now. I have been here for so long, and I don't have a dedicated computer. Every time I need to use the computer, I can only play guerrillas. It is not convenient to open the beginning of the court transcript to familiarize myself with the case; besides, Ah, this is the first time I open a court with so many plaintiffs, so I feel a little uncomfortable; so today's incident has nothing to do with my own stenographer's ability. If I insist, it can only be regarded as an accident. It was caused by a series of objective reasons! And judging from the results, I persisted in this court without any major problems. The defendant’s lawyer had already mocked me in court, and I was retribution—— In short, let this matter pass like this, and don't be angry with me because of this kind of thing..."

Yi Zhongming took out the new catalog and test preparation form from the drawer, and put them respectively in the newly cleared evidence volume.

"I know, not only this matter, you are also angry because of many things, such as this appeal case, for example, I forgot to contact the plaintiff to get the verdict a few days ago, such as the papers in the cabinet-but everything must Speaking of causality, are these problems all my fault?!"

"It's so noisy!" Yi Zhongming clasped the cleared case file with a clip, and turned his head impatiently, "Did I tell you about the court session? Did I tell you about the appeal case file? You alone Why do people justify themselves?! Want to hear the truth? Then let me tell you: Yes, these problems are all your fault! With your ability and attitude, let alone a clerk Well, basically say goodbye to all kinds of office work! It may be appropriate for you to become a bailiff, but judging by your appearance, I guess you can’t even be a bailiff!!”

Ha, Yi Zhongming, Yi Zhongming, you finally said it... Fang Quan may not have a good impression of other aspects, but Yi Zhongming's straightforwardness has always been appreciated by him.

happy!

happy! ! !

"Okay, Yi Zhongming, since you've made it so clear, I won't be polite to you anymore!" The blood in his body rushed to his forehead, Fang Quan's mouth was completely out of control of his brain, "Like you A ruthless and impatient pervert is not fit to be a judge! One more day you are a judge is one more day that the world will be tainted with your disgusting homophobic ideology—uh!!!”

Before Fang Quan could react, his neck was firmly clamped by Yi Zhongming, and then his back hit the cabinet heavily, and Yi Zhongming's right leg blocked his buttocks.

"Put... hands..." Fang Quan panted heavily, holding Yi Zhongming's wrist tightly with both hands, but his brain was starved of oxygen, and his hands couldn't use his strength at all, and he was not a burly man in the first place For Yi Zhongming's opponent, his efforts to survive were nothing more than a dying struggle.

...It seems that the previous few times Yi Zhongming knocked him on the head, he really controlled his strength, because he would really kill people when he was out of control.

"Oh, let me tell you why it took you so long to sign that day." Yi Zhongming smiled slyly, "It turns out that someone said something superfluous."

"Change... don't... come here... ah..."

"Pervert? Surely he wouldn't call me a pervert, right? It seems that there seems to be some deviation in your understanding..."

"Help...don't...don't come here..."

"Oh, it seems to be getting excited here? It's amazing to be able to be excited in this state!" Yi Zhongming pushed his right leg up in a mischievous way, "Could it be that we are also the same kind?"

"!!!"

After being reminded by Yi Zhongming, Fang Quan himself noticed it.

Why...why is this time...

Excited because of lack of oxygen...?

His heart was beating fast, his back was sweating, and his chest was filled with an inexplicable fear.

"Hey, hey, what's the matter with you? First you said that I'm gay for no reason, and then you got up on your own—is this inviting me? This is inviting me!" Yi Zhongming felt more attached As he got closer, Fang Quan closed his eyes in fright, but the other party's fiery breath hit his face, making him tremble uncontrollably, "Speaking of which, I've been very busy every day since I was promoted to assistant judge. I don't even have time to find a place to resolve it..."

Could it be that next...?

"no, do not want……"

Breathing became more and more difficult, eyes were pitch black, tongue spit out slightly, saliva flowed out from the corner of the mouth, consciousness was drifting away, only that part was desperately longing for it.

Well, if something is really going to happen next, it's involuntary.

Take your life...

"Hey, do you remember the question you asked me a few days ago?" Yi Zhongming whispered in Fang Quan's ear, which made his breathing more rapid, "What does the profession of judge mean to me? The problem."

"?!"

Opening his eyes a little, Fang Quan didn't understand the meaning of Yi Zhongming's mention of this matter now.

"Then let me answer this question now: for me, being a judge is a job that can bring me a stable income without starving me to death; and when I was a child, I wanted to be a teacher the most. Now The nature of this job is similar to that of a teacher: just imagine, as a person who has received professional legal education, sit in court, listen to the parties on both sides explain their respective facts, listen to their views on this matter or related laws, and then use a paper The professional judgments that stay out of the way tell these people who have little or no understanding of the law how to deal with it according to the law. If possible, I will appreciate their expressions at the end. This process is very pleasant—although I am not a teacher, But he is also doing educational work, no one can hate this kind of work, right?"

Feeling that Yi Zhongming's strength in pinching his neck was a little weaker, Fang Quan took a big breath.Although his consciousness had recovered, the problems there made him more and more anxious.

"But just like the teacher, I also hate problem 'students' - no matter how many times I say it, I can't listen to it, I don't know how to pretend to understand, I am arrogant, I am not humble, I only talk about it, and I never act... Whether it is Whether the person involved is something else, this kind of person can't be more annoying..."

"Now... why are you talking about this?" Fang Quan impatiently moved forward, not wanting to listen to Yi Zhongming's long speech.

"What? Did I short-circuit your brain?" Yi Zhongming let go of his hand suddenly, and let Fang Quan fall to the ground, covering his neck and coughing desperately, "The 'kind of person' I'm talking about is clearly you. !"

"Varied……"

"Although I never think there is anything great about people like us, I feel disgusted when I think that such a disgusting waste like you is like us!"

"!!!"

"Do you know the ugly gesture you used to beg me just now? It's so ridiculous!" Yi Zhongming picked up the briefcase from his chair, "No matter how long I've been saving, I'm not interested in seeing you anymore!"

"what……"

"I advise you, it's better to urinate and take care of yourself first!"

"I……"

boom!

The office door was slammed mercilessly.

"Wait... this, what is this..."

Unreconciled, angry, ashamed... Fang Quan's heart was filled with mixed emotions—or it should have been.After Yi Zhongming left, he moved his hand down first.

It's ironic that the physical dissatisfaction actually overwhelms all the psychological unhappiness...

"It's exactly the same as what the surname Yi said...haha..."

The movement speeded up, and the consciousness that had just woken up became blurred again.

【"... pretending to understand when you don't understand, arrogant, not humble, only talk, never act..."]

For some reason, it was Yi Zhongming's vicious words that echoed in his mind at this time.

【"...Nasty waste...Disgusting..."】

Fang Quan clenched his lips and pressed his forehead against the cabinet.

【"...Do you know how ugly you begged me just now? It's so ridiculous!"】

The speed continues to increase, and soon I will be able to...

【"...No matter how long I have saved up, I am not interested in seeing you anymore!"】

"Ha-ah-huh... woo, woo woo..."

When YW receded, unpleasant emotions such as unwillingness, anger, and shame re-occupied all of my brain.While rushing to the top, Fang Quan's tears also fell down.

"Damn! Shit! Bastard! Perverted! Yi Zhongming, I greet your eighteenth generation ancestor!"

There is no aftertaste worth staying and enjoying. Fang Quan stood up while supporting the cabinet, and left the office quickly.He is now eager to change out of the clothes he soiled, after all, in this hot weather, no one likes to wear sticky clothes.

"I don't know who is disgusting...the door is still slammed..." Fang Quan wiped his tears with his arm, and turned the door bolt.

Can't move.

Fang Quan turned it a few more times, but the door bolt still remained in the state of only half a turn.

good.very good.very good.

Locked in the office after being nearly strangled, insulted, and unsatisfied.

"From CNMB!" Fang Quan kicked the door hard, and then sat back on his seat, "After pinching someone and locking him inside, who do you think you are! Do you have the right? Knowing who's disgusting, who needs a piss photo-uh..."

You can feel the strangeness in your body when you move a little bit, recalling how embarrassed you were just now, the tears that just stopped couldn't help but flow down again.

"Damn it...Damn it, you surnamed Yi! Who is the same kind as you! It's all your fault for me to..." His arms were already full of tears, Fang Quan lifted his skirt, "Wait, this uniform It's...it's his fault!"

Thinking that the clothes belonged to Yi Zhongming, Fang Quan brazenly wiped his tears and snot on them—it wasn't his own, it wasn't his own anyway, and the clothes weren't his own anyway! !

"...I don't even own the clothes...this job is really...hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!"

Laughing hysterically, the tears still couldn't stop flowing.

"What kind of job is this...it is clearly said that it is a stenographer, how can it be so busy, so messy, so tiring, and so be...whoever likes to do it! Maybe it is easier for the law/police to maintain order or something Yes, and it can be regarded as staying in the court..."

stay in court...

stay in court?

By the way, why do I have to stay in the court with all my heart?Wouldn't it be possible to become a lawyer like Xiaoxi wanted?

But at that time, not to mention lawyers, even neighbors...

In the end, it was the judges who settled the dispute and gave them justice!

As long as there is no objective difficulty the problem must be solved, and that is the way they work.It is precisely because of this way of working that they can become the last messengers of justice in this society.

The last envoy of justice... sounds so handsome... Maybe I fully realized this at that time, so I have been working hard in the direction of the judge for so many years.And if you don't have the spirit of "as long as there are no objective difficulties, you must solve the problem", you will probably never be able to adapt to the life of this group, right?

Therefore, even though there are thousands of subjective and objective factors that made him resign, there is only one reason for him to stay and stay in the court.

"Really, I almost fell for that Yi..." After wiping his face, Fang Quan stood up and opened the cabinet. Compared with three weeks ago, the number of papers inside was only reduced by about a quarter.

"Whether it's suitable or not, as long as the 'quantity' is enough, as long as the conditions are met, you can stay, isn't it?"

Picking up a stack of files, Fang Quan put them on his desk.

Although Yi Zhongming's words were harsh, but in terms of the meaning of "self-awareness", he may have done something good...

"I didn't stay for the sake of staying, but I stayed for the sake of staying in the courthouse—the surnamed Yi, go to ТMD!"

Looking up at the clock on the wall, it was almost five o'clock.

It's still early...
