Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 86 Moral Judgment
The digestion of the potion went more smoothly than Hobart's plan, thanks to the accumulation of contacts he gained from taking each commission seriously.

If he continued to deal with the case that Mr. Button arranged for him, it would take at least another two or three weeks before the potion could be completely digested.

Mr. Bob's case introduced by Robin's cousin, Mr. Sean's case introduced by Miss Hugh, and Mr. Bruce's case introduced by Mr. Barron.These three cases prompted Hobert to digest the remaining potions in his body, and these three cases were all the results of his own accumulation of contacts, this is what made Hobert most gratified.

"Thank you, Mr. Hobert."

Bruce’s sincere thanks made Hobert come back to his senses, he smiled and said: “You can live happily in the future is the biggest ridicule of your past life, your family background is good, and you are still young, I believe it is not difficult to achieve this , stop doing stupid things."

"Your advice is my will."

After Bruce spoke a few more words to his mother, he followed the bailiff to prison to serve his sentence.

Although she won the lawsuit, Mrs. Kent still burst into tears. After all, Bruce will spend three months in a cold prison.

Hobert chatted with Mr. Barron for a few words, and everyone left one after another.

Outside the court, just as Hobert was about to get into the taxi, Fors came over and said, "We happen to be on the way, let's go together."

Carpool?

"No problem." Now he is very rich, but Hobert, who can save a little, will naturally not refuse.

In the carriage, Fors suddenly said: "Hobert, don't you think the punishment for Bruce is a bit inappropriate?"

"Ok?"

"I don't mean anything else." Forsi said: "I also think that Bruce's behavior should not be considered as intentional homicide or intentional injury, but, after all, he has the tendency to hurt others."

"I understand what you mean." Hobert smiled and said, "This is actually a common problem among non-legal professionals. They always like to use moral judgments to determine the standard for a person to be punished."

Forsi was taken aback, as if that was the case.

"Miss Forsi, you need to know that people's moral standards have never been completely unified, so it is difficult to unify judgments based on morality." Hobert said:
"Like Bruce's case, it is obviously unreasonable for the Wyent family to think that he should spend 20 years in prison. It is also unreasonable for Bruce's mother to think that her son should be released in court.

"Did you find out that most of the time, the law is a compromise option. At the same time, the credibility of the law and its violent enforcement methods allow most people to abandon their own moral judgments and accept the judgment of the law.

"This is the value of the judicial system."

Forsi smiled and said, "It's because my vision of seeing things is too naive."

"No, this is my major." Hobert said, "Just like I don't know how to write books or practice medicine, everyone has something they are good at."

Fors nodded, feeling that Hobert's explanation of the law just now had benefited her a lot, and the image of the protagonist in her mind became clearer.

Back at the law firm, Hobert's mind was no longer on work.

Now that the potion has been completely digested, of course he must advance as soon as possible. He knew that the potion of Sequence 8 was called "The Barbarian" a long time ago, and he also fought against "The Barbarian" Upton.

But he is still looking forward to the new abilities that the barbarians will bring.

Hobert wanted to fish, but Saturday afternoon was busy.

First, Mr. Sean, who had already received the repayment, came to pay Hobert's commission fee of 36 pounds. Mr. Sean thanked Hobert again before leaving.

Then Mrs. Kent came to pay Hobert's commission fee of 38 pounds, and she thanked Hobert before leaving.

Since these two commissions are not cases assigned by the firm, according to the firm's regulations, Hobert only needs to pay the firm a "reception fee" of 2 pounds for each case. After all, Hobert used the firm's The venue received the client.

However, if Hobert chose the fixed salary of a law firm at the beginning, then the two commission fees must be turned over and distributed by the firm according to relevant regulations.

The two cases brought Hobert a total of 70 pounds of income, and the actual income after paying taxes was 61 pounds 7 soli.

The entrustment fee is a service fee, and the tax rate in the Loen Kingdom is lower than the commercial tax, but because the two incomes are more than 20 pounds, the tax standard is also more than 10%.

This made Hobert not only sigh: the Loen government is still making money.

Then he wondered if he could use the non-staff personnel certificate issued by the Nighthawks team to avoid tax?I really envy Mr. Ke, his income is not taxed.

Then he envied Mr. Ke for being reimbursed for the consumption of many mystic materials, and even if he used a spoonful of evening vanilla powder, he had to spend his own money to buy it.

In the end, Hobert realized that his current income was higher than Ke Zong, and this should be the only consolation.

While he was thinking wildly, Dai Lun, whom he saw at the excavation site yesterday, brought Bill's wife to the door and wanted to entrust Hobert to defend Bill.

Originally, Hobert wanted to use Bill's case to digest the potion, but he did not expect that Mrs. Kent would "get there first".

However, Hobert would not refuse Bill's case. Even if he took the new potion, he would continue to be a lawyer for some time to come.

Hobert looked at the plaintiff's indictment and was confident enough about the defense that he asked Bill's wife to sign a power of attorney.

However, the Bill family is not very rich. Considering that they have to pay the plaintiff's economic losses, they can only take out 10 pounds to pay the lawyer's fees.

Hobert thought the price was not too bad, since Bill's case was much simpler.

After finishing all this work, it was past five o'clock in the afternoon, and Hobert took the carriage home just in time for dinner.

After dinner, Hobert followed Christine to the study and closed the door of the study. Hobert couldn't wait to say: "Father, I've digested all of the 'Lawyer' potion."

Christine was taken aback: "So fast?"

"Well, the recent cases made me realize the core of 'lawyer'." Hobert said: "After acting, I quickly digested the potion."

Christine nodded, staring at Hobart suddenly.

Hobert immediately felt great mental pressure, and he wanted to fight against this force with all his strength.

This pressure lasted for more than ten seconds before it suddenly disappeared.

Christine nodded: "It's all digested."

He said: "You digested the potion faster than Rex and I did back then."

He asked again: "Do you want to be promoted to Sequence 8 now?"

Hobert nodded: "Yes."

"I must remind you." Christine said seriously: "The higher the sequence, the more difficult it is to obtain potion formulas and extraordinary materials. Don't forget the curse on you!"
