Ning An's Wild Wish System

"Is this dude, Sun, doing a parody?"

Ning An looked at Fei San, bewildered.

Before speaking, the buddy even asked his lawyer, thinking he had some brains.

Unexpectedly, this buddy has some brains, but not much...

The judge signaled for silence in the courtroom, then turned to look at Fei San again:

"Defendant, in court, you must take responsibility for every word you say."

"I now solemnly ask you again."

"Why did you sell stolen batteries for money?"

Unlike his earlier outburst, Fei San spoke in a much quieter tone this time.

"Stealing batteries to sell for money, of course, was to hire a prostitute..."

After saying this, he immediately scooted back a bit, leaned toward his lawyer, lowered his voice, and nervously asked:

"Lawyer Wang, did I just say something wrong? Is it a big problem? I spoke honestly, without a lie!"

Is it a big problem?

How can you even ask!

Lawyer Wang, speechless, rubbed his forehead, waved a hand at him, and said:

"It’s not a big problem, not a big problem, I can handle it."

Although Fei San’s honest words caused some unnecessary complications, overall, it wasn’t a big problem.

It’s just that, on top of theft, another charge of prostitution was added.

According to the laws of Dragon Country, hiring a prostitute doesn’t violate criminal law, nor does it constitute a crime; it’s just a breach of public security management.

Typically, in civil cases like prostitution, you just go through the motions.

If it’s a minor case, it’s just five days’ detention and a five-thousand fine.

You don’t even really need a lawyer.

In the eyes of the lawyer, although Fei San’s words were shocking, the problem was indeed not that big.

"Alright then, I’ll continue questioning you."

The judge looked at him and continued to ask:

"Where did you hire a prostitute? And how did you find out about this place?"

This time, Fei San didn’t just blurt it out but turned to look at his lawyer.

During the questioning, Lawyer Wang dared not add unnecessary words, just waved his hand, meaning for Fei San to speak the truth, he could handle it.

Seeing this, Fei San understood and turned his head awkwardly, saying, "Your Honor, any man can find this kind of thing."

"The place I went to is a garden not far from here. Behind the garden, there’s an alley. We were out playing late, and Zhang Peng insisted on taking me there."

Yes!

Say it just like that!

Lawyer Wang felt reassured and couldn’t help but feel some relief.

This is the demeanor a defendant should have!

In court, speaking is essentially ninety percent truth, ten percent lies. As long as Fei San doesn’t screw up, he can ensure he receives the lightest punishment.

The judge nodded and asked:

"Defendant, please answer, who is Zhang Peng?"

"What is your relationship with him?"

"And where did you get to know each other?"

Fei San, quick to respond: "He’s my hometown mate. We met during a gambling session last time."

The judge: ???

Lawyer Wang suddenly looked up: ???

Everyone online and offline: ???

As soon as these words came out, the courtroom was instantly in an uproar.

Everyone exchanged glances, wide-eyed and dumbfounded, eyes filled with disbelief.

These folks have lived for decades; what haven’t they seen?

But today’s scene... they really hadn’t seen before!

Even the experienced judge showed a moment of shock on his face.

Having served as a judge for decades, he’s seen bold people but never one as daring as Fei San!

The courtroom was hard to keep quiet, and everyone in the live broadcast chatroom was already in chaos.

"My goodness! He’s truly a hidden gem, good boy!"

"I bet his lawyer is about to cry, probably cursing him inside by now."

"Dying of laughter, who would know their client would be like this—has some brains but clearly not much."

"Thrilled! Now I understand, the novels I read weren’t written with idiotic plots; they were based on reality!"

"Can’t keep up! Author: Thank you very much..."

"..."

At this moment, Fei San also sensed that the atmosphere was off.

He felt a bit flustered, once again quietly scooting backward, and asked:

"Lawyer Wang, saying it like this shouldn’t be a big problem, right?"

By now, Lawyer Wang was completely numb inside.

He rubbed his forehead with one hand, clenched a fist with the other, and finally waved his hand, gritting his teeth:

"No problem, not a big problem! I can handle it!"

If he didn’t say that, what else could he do?

Sing "Turn Back Time" a thousand times in court to return to before the session started?

The judge paused and said:

"Gambling? You gamble as well?"

Fei San looked a bit embarrassed, scratching his nose, chuckling dryly:

"Well, just when I’m stressed, I play a bit."

There’s still hope!

Hearing these words, Lawyer Wang, who had been listening intently, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Playing a few rounds when stressed is normal for people like him, isn’t it?

As long as the amount is not huge, with his professionalism, he can still manage!

The judge nodded and continued to ask:

"Then when are you stressed?"

Fei San, melancholic: "It’s really stressful during fraud."

Lawyer Wang: !!!

His heart, which had just calmed down, was suddenly yanked again, as if an invisible hand was squeezing it hard.

He was completely dumbfounded!

Bro, when you came to me, didn’t you say it was just theft?

These constant surprises, you never mentioned them before!

How does fraud come into the picture too!

He hadn’t even caught his breath when he heard Fei San grumble dissatisfiedly:

"People nowadays are too tricky. I scammed only a few thousand in two months, not even as much as a single robbery would make."
