My wife is a reborn person

Lai Jian and the two came down outside the city. With their status, they could fly, but Lai Jian didn't want to make too much publicity, so he followed the locals and informed the city lord of their arrival in the identity card.

The city lord of Huangmang City is a middle-aged cultivator who has cultivated to the realm of gods. In fact, many high-level people do not like to seek jobs in the secular world. Even the city lords in big cities are tasks assigned by the sect, not them. You have to hold a position there, except of course, at a level like Tiannan City.

When the city lord took over the task from Lai Jian and Li Yuting, he had already received the notice from above, telling him that there would be inner disciples coming to judge in the near future, so ten days ago, he had organized many places such as the city lord's palace. Once again, the inner disciple who had been waiting to take over the mission arrived.

Now that I have finally received the message from Lai Jian, I am a little worried, because the inner disciple has great power, and if he goes back and says bad things about him, he will be finished.

Lai Jian asked him not to come outside the city to pick him up, so he could only wait at the gate of the city lord's mansion.

"Sir!" The city lord saluted very respectfully as soon as he saw Lai Jian and Li Yuting. Although the inner disciples did not have any positions, they had a high status. That was because their status surpassed the highest positions.

It can be said that the status of the inner disciples of any headquarters is higher than that of most city lords. Only city lords of Tiannan City's level can be comparable in status.

"Sir!" A group of people behind the City Lord's Mansion also saluted.

Lai Jian nodded and Li Yuting did not speak. Normally, Li Yuting would not express any opinions at this time.

"Sir, we have some drinks in the house. Please come here." The city lord led the way, Lai Jian and Li Yuting followed the city lord, and behind them were a group of people. These people were the common people in Huangmang City. It is difficult to meet a high-ranking official.

"City Lord, is there anything unclear about this case?" Lai Jian asked directly during the banquet.

The city lord smiled bitterly and said: "The facts of the case are very clear, but it is difficult to judge."

With that said, he took a file and handed it to Lai Jian: "Your Excellency, you will know after reading it."

Lai Jian turned to the first page, which was the information about the criminal suspect in this case:

Cheng Hao, male, twelve years old, sixth level of body training realm, with great footwork and swordsmanship.

While studying at Huangmang Academy, he killed his classmate Zhang with extremely cruel means. Note here, the method was extremely cruel. He was arrested and taken away quickly. He is now temporarily under house arrest in the City Lord's Mansion.

The following is more detailed information about Cheng Hao:

His household registration is Huangmang City, and his father Cheng Tianran is the former city lord of Huangmang City.

During Cheng Hao's time at Huangmang Academy, he bullied his classmates many times, and the students' parents responded many times. However, the academy did nothing and went to his parents, who ignored him because the child was still young.

What can the people of Huangmang City do to him?

We can only stay away from Cheng Hao, but we are all in the same college, how to escape?

The college's inaction and parents' lack of control led to this tragedy.

"Isn't this very clear?" Lai Jian read the complete crime process, and there was evidence in all aspects, and Cheng Hao also admitted it. This means that there is nothing suspicious about this case, but Lai Jian will not be sentenced. Some don't understand.

Hearing this, the city lord smiled bitterly and said: "Our Tianjian Sect's secular laws stipulate that those who are under the age of thirteen will not be prosecuted. Cheng Hao has half a year to turn thirteen, so he cannot be convicted."

"If we can't be sentenced, then we can wait until we are thirteen years old before being sentenced!" Lai Jian said.

"No!" The city lord said helplessly: "The law stipulates that the case must be calculated according to the time when the case occurred. If the person is under thirteen at that time, then the sentence can only be based on that age."

"Doesn't that mean we have to let him go?" Lai Jian frowned. He was a cultivator and often killed people. He was a little numb to such matters, so Cheng Hao didn't find it abominable when he killed someone.

He just analyzed it from a relatively fair perspective: "Since you can't be sentenced, let's let him go!"

"Sir!" The city lord stood up, saluted Lai Jian respectfully and said: "This case has aroused public outrage. Now not only the people in Huangmang City know about it, but also probably many people in Tianjian City know about it, so we will handle it If it’s not good, it will have a certain impact on Tianjian Sect.”

Hearing this, Lai Jian checked some news on the identity card.

After reading for a long time, he read many comments, but none of them supported Cheng Hao. Basically, they all supported Cheng Hao's death penalty.

"According to secular law, what is the punishment for killing someone over the age of thirteen?" Lai Jian asked.

"If you kill a person over the age of thirteen, intentional homicide or wounding to death is a death penalty, but killing a person under the age of thirteen will be more serious. Generally, the death penalty will be executed after the torture of crushing limbs." The city lord road.

Lai Jian was silent.

If he enforces the law impartially and according to the law, he can only let Cheng Hao go. However, it is obvious that this matter has caused public outrage. If it is not handled well, it will have some impact on Tianjian Sect. Of course, this impact will soon be eliminated. Forget.

But Lai Jian is a normal person. He is not a lawyer or a policeman. He often pays more attention to his own feelings.

"Tomorrow, I will give everyone an explanation. Cheng Hao will be put on trial in public tomorrow."

Lai Jian and Li Yuting left the banquet and did not stay in the city lord's mansion. Instead, they asked Li Yuting to put on a veil and visit Huangmang City.

"Husband, follow your heart. The law cannot restrain you, but your heart very much restrains you." Li Yuting said gently. Lai Jian shook Li Yuting's hand, feeling very calm inside.

He actually already had the answer, so he said there would be a public trial tomorrow.

"I heard that the sect will send big shots to handle this case. I wonder if Chen Hao will be sentenced? Will Zhang's grievances be redressed?"

"It's hard to say. That Cheng Hao's father was the previous city lord, and there are people above him. Maybe this matter will go unnoticed. Alas! Zhang's death must have been in vain!"

"This day is really unfair. Do good people deserve to die? Do bad people kill people just because of their age and don't have to bear any responsibility?"

"That's right. To protect minors, we should protect minors who abide by the law, not those who break the law. Doesn't that encourage the arrogance of criminals? Doesn't that tell all minor criminals that they can do whatever they want?"

"That's right, information is so advanced in this era. Children now have ID tags in their hands. What information can't be seen? How many bad people may be waiting for this news?"

"What's the use of talking about it?"

"Can't I say it if it's useless? I just want to say it!"

"You can't say that. Cheng Hao is still young, and he is still a genius at Huangmang City Academy. His future achievements are limitless. If you give him a chance, he might become a talented person."

"Tch! He's so vicious at such a young age. When he grows up, he'll be more harmful. I think it's safest to just kill this kind of person."

"Exactly! Keeping such people is a disaster and a shame to Tianjian Sect!"

"that is!"

Lai Jian paid attention to the sounds around him and could hear many voices discussing this incident.

"It seems that this incident has indeed aroused public outrage. The secular laws of Tianjian Sect should be changed today. How ugly this is!" Lai Jian shook his head helplessly. Cultivators basically rely on strength, but the secular world has special targets. Laws for ordinary people.
