Chapter 310 The Judge
"Since it is clear what is right and what is wrong, why do you punish Musk, the victim, by brutally locking him in a cage and confining him?" Mr. Colt asked.
"Oh, dear Mr. Judge! I punish Musk because he destroyed the theater facilities and forgot to clean up..."
"A person who was forced to get involved in a fight in self-defense should indeed be compensated for the property damaged during this period. However, instead of seeking compensation from the villain who started the dispute, you blame the victim. Isn't this fair?"
George Colt grew angrier as he spoke.
"Mr. Puzo, it's a good thing that you are not a judge, otherwise our society would be in chaos. Good people will not be rewarded, and bad people will go unpunished!"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Judge... It's true that I didn't handle it well. I was wrong..." Mr. Puzo said in a low voice.
"Dad, can I say a few words?"
The girl's words came from outside the door, her voice clear and sweet.
"Of course. Dear trainee religious inquisitor and 'adjudicator' Ms. Lisa, what do you have in mind?" Judge Colt teased his daughter with a smile.
"Dad! You tried this circus fight case based on legal provisions. I can't say it's wrong, but you are too nerdy and unreasonable."
"Ha! You, a little girl, only fifteen years old, dare to laugh at my lack of understanding of the world. Are you serious?"
"Of course I am serious!" Miss Lisa showed no sign of weakness, "Do you think Mr. Puzo doesn't know right from wrong? You are wrong. In fact, Mr. Puzo knows very well that Musk is innocent, and those two villains who bullied Musk are He should be punished, but he couldn't do that, because those two villains were famous actors in the circus, and Mr. Puzo had to rely on them to perform to make money, so how could he cut down his own cash cow?
"As for Musk, he is just a supporting actor in the troupe. With or without him, it will not hinder the sale of tickets. Of course Mr. Puzo is happy to punish Musk and help the two villains vent their anger to prevent them from getting emotional and jumping to other places. troupe!”
After hearing what she said, Mr. Colt and Mr. Puzo fell silent.
Gao Fei nodded secretly.
This Miss Lisa Colt analyzed the problem from the perspective of economic interests, showing maturity and insight beyond her years.
At this time, the warehouse door opened.
Mr. Puzo walked in with Mr. Colt and a long-haired girl wearing a black and white seminary uniform.
The girl suddenly flashed a pair of light blue eyes and looked at Musk curiously through the iron cage.
"Good evening, Miss Colt."
Goofy smiled and greeted her.
"Hello, Mr. Justice, nice to meet you."
Miss Lisa held her hat brim and nodded in return.
"How long have you been in the cage?"
"Not counting the time I sneaked out to play in the afternoon, it's about five hours."
"Ha! You clever guy!"
Miss Lisa showed her fangs and smiled very cutely.
"But Dad is right, you are indeed very honest." Miss Lisa's eyes were shining, "Musk, tell me, how did you unlock the iron cage from the inside?"
"It takes a little bit of skill and a tool."
"I guess you're not lacking in skills. What's the tool?"
"A hair long enough." Goofy pretended to be serious. "In the afternoon, my friend Simba lent me a piece of lion's mane to use to pick the lock. Unfortunately, he is in a bad mood at the moment."
"You can pick locks with a lion's mane? Are you really that powerful?" Miss Lisa's eyes widened with disbelief on her face.
"Miss, your hair is longer and more beautiful than the lion's mane. If you are willing to give me a hair, I can perform it for you."
"OK!"
Miss Lisa happily pulled out a piece of hair and handed it to him through the fence.
Gao Fei took the hair that still contained the girl's body scent and wrapped it around the lock in a pretentious manner. He secretly switched out the "thief mask" and selected the "Skilled Hands" skill to easily pry open the lock of the iron cage.
"Wow! Musk, you are really good!"
Miss Lisa clapped her hands and cheered.
Goofy had just emerged from the iron cage. Simba, the male lion who was napping in the cage next to him, was also awakened by the sound of conversation. He opened his sleepy eyes and saw Miss Lisa at a glance, and then smelled the mint perfume smell emanating from her body. , couldn't help but sneezed twice in a row, which made the iron cage rattle.
Mr. Colt and Mr. Puzo, who were chatting, were startled by this sudden change. They turned to look at the lion in the cage, thinking that Simba had gone crazy.
Miss Lisa was also taken aback, and quickly pulled Gao Fei back to her father's side. Then she pulled out the Holy Emblem of the Sun hanging on the necklace from her collar, held it in her hand, and shouted at the restless lion in the cage. A scolding that contains divine power!
"Canwa!"
Simba's body shook and he lay down involuntarily.
Gao Fei witnessed this scene from the side and immediately saw that Miss Lisa had just cast a level 1 "command spell".
Turns out she is a divine spellcaster!
Gao Fei secretly opened the astrolabe to check Miss Lisa's background.

“The Judge” is also called “The Inquisitor”, which is a prototype of the priest profession.
This prototype is not known for its combat power, but its uniqueness lies in its ability to see through people’s hearts, see through lies, and distinguish truth from falsehood, which is particularly suitable for clergy engaged in legal business.
For example, in history, most of the "inquisitors" who were keen on sending heretics to the stake had the "judge" professional level.
The background of "Duel Agent" is the 1620s. The world of Vares has already begun the first industrial revolution. The cruel religious wars and heresy trials are a thing of the past.
Today's "judges" are mostly engaged in legal litigation related to religion, and are often hired by the police or courts to assist in investigating difficult cases. They are equivalent to detectives within the system, and are no longer the terrifying image that everyone kept away from before.
