Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 81 The Unconventional Lawyer Hobert

On the judge's bench, the wrinkled judge shook his head to express his disapproval of Hobert's absurd request.

In the auditorium, Bob's workmates were all sweating for Bob. They knew that Mr. Arnold would definitely not accept the compensation of 1000 pounds. They thought this might be a way for Hobert's lawyer to bargain.

Fors looked at the expressionless Hobert thoughtfully. She had the illusion that she only officially met Hobert today.

In court, Hobert was not annoyed by the opponent's lawyer mocking him as a clown. He said seriously: "Defendant lawyer, you don't understand clowns at all. Behind every comedy is the core of tragedy."

The defendant's lawyer was obviously taken aback, and sitting in the dock was Arnold's secretary, who coldly reminded Hobert: "Don't be too greedy, if your request exceeds the relevant regulations, you will not get a penny." .”

Hobert said: "Our demands are not excessive at all, but in this world, reasonable demands become excessive."

The defendant's lawyer smiled and said, "We don't have time to discuss philosophy with you, Mr. Judge, please pass the sentence."

The judge asked Hobert: "Plaintiff's lawyer, do you maintain the current request?"

"constant."

The judge was helpless. He cleared his throat and was about to pronounce the sentence when Hobert said again: "Your Honor, please wait a moment."

The judge smiled: "It seems that you have changed your mind?"

"No, we withdraw this claim."

As soon as this remark came out, several exclamations were elicited again.

Both the judge and defense attorneys were baffled by Hobert's move.

I only heard Hobert continue: "We will sue Arnold for causing my client to become disabled because of his inaction. Yes, you heard me right, we will sue Arnold for intentional injury!"

Amid the uproar, the defendant's lawyer turned blue and said, "Your accusation is not established! Mr. Arnold did not directly harm your client!"

"My client became disabled while working for Arnold. The causal relationship is established. Arnold has an unshirkable responsibility!"

"That's right, he was disabled at work, but it wasn't Mr. Arnold who disabled him. The causal relationship doesn't hold!"

"Knowing that the machines in the workshop are dangerous, Arnold, as the person in charge of the factory, did not give an effective reminder, causing my client to become disabled. This is the result of Arnold's inaction, and Arnold has an unshirkable responsibility!"

The defendant's lawyer leaned back in his chair with a bad expression. He obviously needed to organize his words before he could launch a new counterattack.

At this time, applause broke out in the audience. Although they didn't understand Hobert's strategy, they knew that in this round of confrontation, Lawyer Hobert won.

Forsi also applauded, she must write this wonderful debate in the next book!
At this time, the judge belatedly tapped the gavel: "You two, your defense is already a criminal defense, and this court does not accept the result of your defense."

Hobert said: "Your Honor, I will prepare relevant materials and transfer the case to the official court."

The judge nodded: "Okay, good luck to you, young man, your thinking is quite wonderful. Okay, leave the court!"

Hobert once again felt the signs of the potion being digested, and it was faster than expected. He estimated that even if there were no other commissions, after the lawsuit against Bob, his potion would be completely digested.

After the judge left, Bob's workmates came over and chatted loudly with Bob.

Bob sincerely said to Hobert: "Thank you, Lawyer Hobert."

Hobert smiled and said, "This is just the first step. The real difficulty of this lawsuit is yet to come."

"No, no, Mr. Hobert." Bob smiled and said, "Today I can see Baker in the dock, that Arnold's dog turned blue with anger, and acted like I couldn't help it. It's worth the lawsuit."

Several of his co-workers laughed wantonly, saying that today's trip was worthwhile.

When a group of people came to the gate of the Magistrate's Court, Bob's co-workers greeted each other and went back to work.

Hobert looked at their backs: "In Backlund, it's rare to see co-workers who have such a good relationship with you."

"Because we are all believers in the God of Steam and Machinery!" Bob smiled, "We often go to church together to discuss the glory of the God of Steam and Machinery."

Hobert nodded. Faith does have such an effect: "Where do you live? I will inform you of the court time in a letter, but it is estimated to be next week, or next week."

Bob smiled bitterly: "I don't have a fixed place to live, but I can go to the law firm every day and wait for you to get off work."

Hobert pondered for a moment: "I'll send you to the poorhouse."

Bob smiled wryly again: "The workhouse does not accept the disabled."

"Then how poor are they?" Hobart sneered, "I have a solution, but if someone asks you again, what is your belief, you have to answer the Evernight Goddess."

Bob opened his mouth: "Sorry, sir, I don't want to change my faith."

"It didn't make you convert, it's just an alternative to survive, it didn't make you give up anything." Hobert said: "You can continue to believe in the gods of steam and machinery in your heart, although these gods don't care about the beliefs of believers. life or death."

Bob was a little apprehensive: "First, sir..."

Hobert waved his hand: "Okay, it's settled, otherwise my client will starve to death before the lawsuit is over, it will be a shame to me."

Just as he was about to wave to the rental carriage not far away, a simple four-wheeled carriage stopped in front of them.

The car door opened, and the defendant's lawyer sat on the carriage in court just now and said condescendingly: "Lawyer Hobert, I think we should discuss about today's case."

But Hobert said while walking along the side of the road: "I don't think that's necessary."

The defendant's lawyer had no choice but to ask the driver to follow him unhurriedly: "It is necessary! Please stop, please stop."

Hobert ignored the other party and continued to walk forward: "Is it your courtesy to ask others for help?"

The defendant's lawyer had no choice but to get out of the car in a little embarrassment: "Please get in the car, there is still room for discussion on this matter."

"Okay." Hobert helped Bob into the car.

"Well, I think you can come up by yourself."

Hobert shook his head: "I will not negotiate with you in the absence of my client."

Defendant's lawyer: "Well, that's fine. Bob, don't bring your stick up, it will poke the carpet on the car!"

Baker in the carriage frowned as he watched Bob get into the carriage, and sat on the other side of the carriage, trying to distance himself from Bob.

The defendant's lawyer took out the checkbook: "How about 150 pounds? This is almost the greatest mercy of Mr. Arnold."

Hobert shook his head: "In my opinion, Arnold's kindness is ridiculous! Both of you, a hound is worth 50 pounds? Don't you think such a small compensation is insulting?"
