Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Jury Duty



"You know, I still think that claim is wrong. It just doesn\'t seem right...

Also even if it is true, only Wuli and Yueyue would care about it right? Why would you guys want to get stronger when you are this strong?" Xiaoyun was still hopeful that it was just going to be fine.

"I\'m pretty sure it\'s not the only strength that is changed... Remember how our period stopped completely and can\'t get pregnant anymore?

Have you also notice Yuqi and Yueyue was back in shape like in a week after pregnancy? Even thought she doesn\'t exercise and have been eating more and more food?" Leyan pointed out.

"Fuck..." Xiaoyun realized what\'s coming tonight.

----

Soon the three day has passed since the conversation about Xiaoyun\'s ability.

The past few days, Xiaoyun waken up completely exhausted as all six of them doesn\'t even get shy sharing Xiaoyun anymore.

It was slowly becoming Xiaoyun\'s worst nightmare as even Lily asked to join. But all six of them threaten to break Xiaoyun\'s body if he accepted it.

Thinking of the two choices, Xiaoyun sided with the six of them as he was never going to accept Lily\'s offer even if they didn\'t threaten him.

Beside what happen at home, the rescue team with four of the regiment was back in full swing as it began it\'s operation further into the city.

However, the operation had found zero survivor after two days of searching.

The only thing they found were bunch general goods from cloths to tools in the city. There was zero food in every part of the city they had went to. It was completely looted clean or gone bad.

It cast doubt on the need for rescue mission with the low return compare to the gas and ammo it takes.

"We should put a pause to this for now. Nobody can living in the city have enough food for two years. They would of gotten out by now, or turn into zombies." Yezi stated as he read over the massive fuel intake to Xiaoyun.

"Continue it for one more week. It\'s still a good training to make sure all the soldier is ready... If there still no sign of anyone alive in the city, then we can give it up.." Xiaoyun still felt there was some people stuck inside the city.

"Fine, you\'re the one making all these fuel anyway... Speaking of training, I need to report to you about something."

"What is it?"

"You friend Ningjing and Mingxu is way too strong. They really need to be more careful with their strength. In two days of training, they had broken three rifles and injured every single one of their training partner." Yezi complained.

"They just need some time to get use to their strength more carefully. And just make them train each other instead." Xiaoyun suggested.

"Man I should of thought of that. That\'s genius idea." Yezi nodded in agreement with the suggestion.

"Anyway, I need to go to the jury trial today. See you tomorrow." Xiaoyun got up from his seat and left.

After walking for five minute from the command center, Xiaoyun arrived at the courthouse that Yuqi designated for the lawyers.

Although it was called a court house, it looked more like a concrete box with a large jail cell with barbed fences surrounding the back and the side of the building.

If it wasn\'t for the label at the front, Xiaoyun would of mixed it up as a prison.

"This design... who thought of this." Xiaoyun mumbled as he walked toward entrance.

Before he could go any further, a security guard stopped him.

"Sir this is a forbidden are—— oh hello Mr.Mayor, how can I help you today?" The security guard quickly realized it was Xiaoyun.

"I\'m just here to visit the court trial, can you bring me there?" Xiaoyun looked around inside, and it was an absolute maze with tons of hallways.

"Sure, I can be your tour guide." The security started walking inside one of the hallway as Xiaoyun followed.

"Why does this feel like a prison." Xiaoyun commented as they walked further inside.

"I was wondering the same too, but then one of the employee working here told me that this building was originally meant to be a prison.

Mrs.Yuqi just converted the left side of the building to be a court house." As the security guard finish talking, they finally arrived at the court.

It was a desk elevated in the middle, with one desk on the lower left, and one desk on the lower right.

At the back was fifteen chairs lined up next to each other for people to sit in.

"Mr.Mayor, I think they are starting in ten minute." The security guard reminded Xiaoyun.

"Thank you for bring me here." Xiaoyun took a seat on the chair.

"No problem sir."

After the security guard left, Xiaoyun grew bored while waiting. So he got up and walked over to the middle desk.

As he sat down onto the seat behind the desk, he glanced down at the two desk below him.

In that moment, a sudden surge of privilege washed over Xiaoyun.

He could feel the words he said next has weight over it, as if the word he uttered next could shape the course of someone\'s entire life.

Xiaoyun promptly stood up and returned back to the chair at the bottom.

"That was weird..." Xiaoyun murmured, shaking his head to dispel the unusual sensation he felt earlier.

After waiting for five minute, all fourteen seats was filled with people.

Some of them recognized Xiaoyun, but he signaled them to not speak up about it.

Just as the ten minute mark was about to hit, the judge finally arrived.

It was the senior lawyer that Xiaoyun had talked to last week.

Next, it was two police officer walking an inmate all the way to the left side of the room and signaled him to sit down.

Lastly, an person in suit walked in the room with an entire box of documents. It was the young lawyer that Xiaoyun saw before.

The person walked to the right side of the room and sat down on his seat.

"The court is in session. Prosecution you may began." The judge began the first court case.

----

The court cases went from the least severe to the most severe among the scientists and the insurgent.

Most of the scientists were unsurprisingly sentenced to imprisonment ranging from five years to life. The prosecutor and some of the juror wanted to push for death sentence after hearing the atrocity the scientist had committed to the country\'s soldiers.

This was specially evident in jurors who had family member in Xiaoyun\'s army. Some even yelled slurs and insult toward the scientist.

"Silent please." The judge hits the gravel against the wooden disk.

Meanwhile when it got to the first insurgent, the entire juror was in confusion.

"When did we have a coup?" One of the juror asked out loud.

Suddenly the entire court room fell in silent. Nobody could answer it as the prosecutor wasn\'t sure if he was allow to disclose it.

So he looked over to the judge for answer.

The judge didn\'t know if he was allow to disclose it either, so he looked over to Xiaoyun, who was still in one of the seat among the jurors.

Xiaoyun understood what the judge was concern about, so he got up from his seat and explained it.

"The coup happened while the army was gone in a mission. It was put down before it could led to harm to the town."

Xiaoyun sat back down as the court return back to silent. But all the juror knew Xiaoyun was not just a juror as he just revealed a sensitivities information to the entire juror without getting stopped by the judge.

"The sentencing is ten years. Does the juror agree or disagree?" The judge acted as if nothing happen.

The jurors was completely split into two, with one side favoring a harsher sentencing as they felt betraying the town should be a complete banishment out.

Meanwhile, on the other side, there is a preference for a more lenient approach, with the belief that insurgents should be given a second chance.

They argue that the insurgents were simply blinded by greed and, unlike the scientists, did not cause any actual harm or death.

In the end, the judge sided with the large majority and handed a lenient sentencing to most of the insurgent.

Until it got to one of the leader to the insurgent.

"Ma Tian, the co-conspirator to the insurgent group. Personally recruited over one-hundred people to the coup and was essential to the coup itself as the person who bribed multiple militias on duty...

However, he did switched side last second during the coup." The prosecutor stated the events.

"Please, I regret my decision and I\'m sincerely sorry for my harm. I swear I\'ll never do it again." Ma Tian interrupted the prosecutor.

"Silent, please. You have lost your turn to speak next." The judge declared, hitting his gavel to silence Ma Tian.

The prosecutor then proceeded to list Ma Tian\'s other crimes, which included blackmailing and coercing soldiers to force them into the coup.

The judge announced a possible initial sentence of thirty years imprisonment to let the juror decide.

The juror this time overwhelmingly sided with a harsh sentencing as other crime announced by the prosecutor heavily painted Ma Tian as mastermind behind the entire coup.

Ma Tian was sentence was changed from thirty to life imprisonment instead as the judge sided with the juror\'s opinion.
