Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Lawyers



"It\'s already too late. You guys still have to go to work tomorrow." Leyan reminded them.

"Yeah yeah... just one more day before the weekend." Yuqi replied.

"I can\'t wait for my new job tomorrow. I\'m just too excited to sleep." Yueyue sat back up from the bed.

"You sure Yueyue? You aren\'t satisfied yet?" Leyan asked in a threatening tone.

"I\'m good!" Yueyue immediately laid back down to the bed as she thought back to earlier in the shower with Xiaoyun.

"I\'m going to turn off the light." Nami got up to turn off the light.

"Goodnight." Xiaoyun replied as he pulled up the blanket.

"Goodnight." The six replied back.

---

"Honey, time to wake up." A voice could be heard by Xiaoyun as he was still half asleep.

Suddenly, Xiaoyun could feel someone shaking his shoulder.

"Honey! Wake up!" Xiaoyun rolled over to the other side as Leyan was getting fed up.

Leyan lifted the entire blanket up, and Xiaoyun opened his eyes.

"Hm? Babe why did you wake me up so early?" Xiaoyun finally got up from the bed, but he still only extremely tired.

"You forgot you have meeting at noon today? It\'s ten already you lazy pig!" Leyan pointed at the clock.

"Oh shit!" Xiaoyun was fully awake now and rushed to the bathroom.

By the time Xiaoyun was downstairs at the dining table, it was ten-thirty.

"Where\'s everyone?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he started chewing on the breakfast.

"They already went to work few minute ago. Even Wuli had to go back to work." Leyan replied as she sat down and watched Xiaoyun eat.

"Man I\'m really getting up later and later everyday..." Xiaoyun thought in his head as he finish up the rest of the breakfast.

By the time Xiaoyun got to the office, it was almost eleven.

"Whew, still an hour left." Xiaoyun let out a sigh of relief as he stepped inside the office.

"Did you just ran all the way here?" Yuqi curiously asked.

"Nah just speed walking. I don\'t want sweat this early..." Xiaoyun sat down on the sofa.

"Where\'s Nami and Shuli?" Xiaoyun noticed both of them weren\'t in the office.

"They went to help Yueyue set up." Yuqi replied as she went back focusing on her work.

"By the way Renqin and his friend came here earlier to apologize, but since you weren\'t here I told them to come later."

"Okay... Wake me up when those lawyers come." Xiaoyun laid down flat onto the sofa.

"Are you that sleepy?" Yuqi mumbled as she thought back to last night, leading to her mind unable to focus on the work.

A hour later...

"Wake up, they\'re outside the door." Yuqi pushed Xiaoyun a little.

"Okay okay... Man that was a nice nap." Xiaoyun stretched out his arm as let out a loud yawn.

Xiaoyun walked over to the office door and opened the door.

"Good afternoon Mr.Mayor." The three lawyer followed Xiaoyun inside to the office as Xiaoyun sat back down in his seat.

"So you guys already know what\'s happening right?" Xiaoyun asked.

"Yes, we know that there\'s many people that are currently in jail, and that some of them had killed some people." One of the older lawyer spoke up.

Xiaoyun signal Yuqi to get the data in the drawer.

"Here\'s the data for each one of them. I need you to evaluate it base on this." Xiaoyun handed the data and took out a document from his backpack.

"This?" The older lawyer took the document while the other two got the data.

"I just wrote some few things inside. What do you guys think about it?" Xiaoyun asked.

"Hm... why abolishing the death sentence?" The older lawyer curiously asked.

"We need every man and women to end this apocalypse. Every life is valuable when it take almost sixteen years for a child to an adult." Xiaoyun explained his thinking.

"Even if they commit the most hideous crime?" The young lawyer on the left spoke up as he started reading the data.

Xiaoyun paused for a second, then answered it.

"Assuming they shows sign of regret and doesn\'t repeat the crime, everyone deserve another chance."

"But this is too soft... all of them deserved death sentence for this. Like how does someone do this to another human being?

There is no forgiveness for this kind of crime against humanity." The third lawyer face looked more and more disgusted as he read the data on the sheet.

Despite the two lawyer looking a disturbed by the data, the older lawyer seem to agree with Xiaoyun\'s stance.

"You two still have a lot to learn... You guys can\'t just look at the humanitarian side. Xiaoyun have to think about the whole picture.

As a lawyer, we are suppose to suggest laws and interpret it. Not putting our emotion in this." The old lawyer reminded the two.

Both of the two lawyers wanted to disagree, but stopped as soon as they thought about it more.

"You right... but some of these have almost over a hundred people dead on their hands. They are literally human butchers." The third one still couldn\'t stand the light punishment.

"Sorry my student is still a little new and stubborn." The old lawyer apologized to Xiaoyun.

"It\'s fine, I would react the same thing if I were them." Xiaoyun accepted the apology.

After waiting for thirty minute for three of them to go through all the data and documents.

"So Mr.Mayor, what do you want us to do exactly? Couldn\'t you just sentence them base on this data?" The older lawyer decided to speak up as all three of them finished reading.

"I need you to set up an judicial system base on those guideline. With the most important case for now to be considering the scientist and insurgent\'s cases to decide if they need a lighter or harsher sentencing. " Xiaoyun explained.

"I see... we can do that." The older lawyer stood up from his seat.

"Then its a deal then. You can ask Yuqi if you need any resources and request the prisoners from the police station with that document." Xiaoyun stretched out his hand.

"Thank you Mr.Mayor." All old lawyer bowed down in gratitude while the other two hesitated for a second, but bowed down after the old lawyer gave them a glare in the eye.

"No problem, you guys can just call me Xiaoyun... Oh my I didn\'t even ask for your guys names."

"My name is Li Fa, he is Qi Zhen, and he is Tian Ping." The old lawyer introduced themselves.

"Nice meeting you." Xiaoyun shook hand with the other two.

"Nice meeting you too Mr.Mayor." The other two forced a smile.

"Well we\'ll be going and get prepare to set this up... Mr.Xiaoyun if you want you to, you can visit the first trial next Wednesday." Li Fa suggested to Xiaoyun.

"Sure, I\'ll be there. Just send me an address later." Xiaoyun accepted the offer.

After the three left the office, Yuqi looked over to Xiaoyun.

"Did mom influenced you to be so lenient on these cases?" Yuqi curiously asked.

"No, I thought of it myself... Nobody influenced it. It\'s my decision and mine alone." Xiaoyun clarified.

"But weren\'t you much harsher few days ago?" Yuqi questioned Xiaoyun again.

"I changed my mind. I really thought about it the past few days... Human is already at a number disadvantage, we can\'t afford to lose more people to infighting.

As much as I want justice for the dead, I just can\'t send an entire group group to die." Xiaoyun explained the dilemma he was facing.

"Whatever... I guess they still face prison time and they change themselves there." Yuqi didn\'t argued against Xiaoyun\'s decision.

Suddenly, just as the two were relaxing on the sofa, Xiaoyun\'s phone rang.

"Hello Yezi, what do you need?" Xiaoyun asked.

"Can you come to the training field right now? I need to discuss something with you before the break."

"Sure, I\'ll be right there in fifteen minute." After Xiaoyun finish replying, Xiaoyun hung up the phone.

"You coming home to eat lunch today?" Yuqi asked as Xiaoyun stood back up.

"Probably not, tell Leyan I\'ll be back for dinner later." Xiaoyun gave Yuqi a light kiss and left the office.

---

When Xiaoyun arrived in the training field, Yezi was already standing there. With Yiming right next to him despite being on a break still.

"What\'s wrong?" Xiaoyun asked as he walked over to the two.

"Yiming want to go back to the military." Yezi explained.

"Military? Like the Southern Theater?" Xiaoyun asked again to make sure.

"Yes, I had been thinking about it for a long time now." Yiming spoke up for himself.

"Why? Is it because of the coup?" Xiaoyun looked absolutely confused by Yiming\'s request out of nowhere.
