Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 2097: Chapter 2097“You beat me, I Beat You”(second update)

The kidnapping of Song Jinning and the bombing of Gu Nianzhi took place during the Sheraton Hotel Christmas Eve dinner last year.

That night, Huo Shaoheng, Lu Yuan, and Huo Guanchen worked together with the support of General Ji to capture the people involved in the case, Guo Huining and Keven.

Associate Director Jia was killed on the spot by Lu Yuan.

And it was already the first day of the New Year.

More than two months had passed, and the day that Keven and Guo Huining went to court had been pushed back again and again. Even Gu Nianzhi couldn’t wait any longer.

Huo Shaoheng’s face was expressionless, and he said calmly, “This case is more complicated because it involves foreigners.”

“Currently, Keven’s lawyer is in a jurisdiction case, requesting that Keven be extradited to the United States for trial.”

“In his dreams!”Gu Nianzhi blurted out angrily. “Jurisdictional? I really don’t know what jurisdictional issues are involved in this lawsuit!”

“Are they fighting for personal jurisdiction, territorial jurisdiction, or protective jurisdiction and universal jurisdiction? — don’t tell me that the United States is going to apply long arm jurisdiction to this criminal case!”

“If you stretch your arms too far, you’ll get chopped off!”

Gu Nianzhi rubbed the space between her eyebrows, feeling a headache coming on.

“Long arm jurisdiction is generally used in economic-related civil cases. In theory, it doesn’t apply to criminal cases,”Huo Shaoheng said calmly, “But the United States has sent a huge team of lawyers. The jurisdictional issues that you mentioned, including long arm jurisdiction, they’re suing each and every one of them, with the sole intention of extraditing Keven back to the United States.”

“Keven is an executive of Carlyle International Investment Co. , Ltd. . This company is one of the best in the world. If he really is extradited back to the United States, it’s practically equivalent to directly releasing him.”. “Anyone with a brain would object,”Gu Nianzhi said disapprovingly.

She took out her phone and started searching for online public opinion about the case.

However, the internet was calm and peaceful. The discussions about the case had been deleted and filtered over the past two months, and now they had disappeared without a trace.

“Our country has not signed an extradition agreement with the United States,”Lu Yuan said, puzzled. “Or has our country already signed an extradition agreement with the United States after I haven’t been back for 18 years?”

“No, but there has been a cooperation agreement in major criminal cases.”Huo Shaoheng glanced at Gu Nianzhi. “This is the main demand of the American legal team in the lawsuit. The previous ones were all pretenses to stall for time.”

Gu nianzhi nodded and thoughtfully rested her chin on her hand. “There is indeed a cooperation agreement between Huaxia and the United States for major criminal cases.”

The case that Keven had committed was indeed a major criminal case.

She was puzzled. “But Keven committed a major criminal case on Huaxia soil, not on American soil. Why would the American legal team request to be extradited to the United States for trial?”

“... because they think that Keven will be treated unfairly if he is tried in court martial. Unless we agree to use an ordinary court to try this case.”

Huo Shaoheng had been following the case for the past two months, so he knew the details very well.

“Why? Keven tried to kidnap and hurt Ms. Song, and Ms. Song is an important protected figure in our military.”Gu Nianzhi clenched her fists, her eyes sparkled. “Not to mention the fact that they were carrying illegal weapons and injured so many of our soldiers and officers!”

Lu Jin listened from the side for a long time. Now that it had nothing to do with him, he was happy and relaxed.

Once he relaxed, his mind became much more flexible.

He sneered and said, “Miss, you don’t think they’re really fighting over legal issues, do you?”

Gu Nianzhi:”... Don’t you think so? Didn’t Huo Shao just say that he’s been fighting a jurisdictional lawsuit?”

The official case had yet to go to trial, so they were now preparing for it.

“If the United States even wants to use ‘long arm jurisdiction’for this case, then it’s practically stirring up trouble. Let me tell you something.”Lu Jin rolled his eyes. “The United States over there wouldn’t dare be so arrogant.”

“That’s right. With you over there, the military power of China has long been on par with the United States. If it wants to control China again, it has to weigh its own weight.”Gu Nianzhi took the opportunity to praise Lu Jin.

Lu Jin nodded heavily, “My lady knows the ins and outs of things. Her eyes are like torches! “The United States”Long Arm Jurisdiction’is actually a power politics. It uses its own military power, economic and technological strength as a backing to apply its own domestic laws to the citizens of other countries.”

Gu Nianzhi sighed and leaned back on the sofa. She sat down with no regard for her image, “To put it bluntly, the effectiveness of the law is also maintained by violence. The law does not represent justice, but the will of the ruling class. This phenomenon is even more obvious in the international community.”

“So as long as you have the power, the domestic law can not only govern foreigners, but also other countries.”

“Otherwise, why would the truth be within the range of the cannon? The same goes for the law.”Lu Jin shrugged. “The long arm of the United States can govern wherever its aircraft carrier group can go.”

Gu Nianzhi did not speak for a long time.

She thought quietly and began to look for another angle to look at this problem.

If this passage did not work, she would not be stubborn and stubborn.

She would find another path.

As long as she could reach her goal, she didn’t care which path she took.

After a while, she asked Huo shaoheng, “What do General Ji, speaker long, and Prime Minister Bai have to say?”

“It’s not convenient for them to express their opinions at the moment. Everything will be handled by the court martial.”

Gu Nianzhi’s right hand subconsciously rubbed her fingers, and her left hand lightly tapped on the armrest of the sofa. She looked down at her hands and suddenly had an idea, she smiled and said, “Huo Shao, tell me the truth first. Is there someone in the higher-ups on the side of the United States?”

Huo Shaoheng nodded slightly and did not deny it. “There is. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let the American legal team drag on for two months without a real trial.”

“Not only the higher-ups, there is also a group of elites who are demanding that our country obey the long-arm jurisdiction system of the United States. They claim that this is a standard agreed upon by the international community. If we don’t obey, then we are breaking the rules. We don’t have the spirit of a contract.”

Gu Nianzhi not only had a headache, but even her teeth were sore. She shook her head speechlessly and said, “Why don’t you throw the recent actions of the President of the United States in their face?”

“Without the spirit of a contract, who doesn’t have the spirit of a contract? Besides, it’s either stupid or bad to talk about contracts with the European and American countries.”

“Although that period of humiliation is almost a hundred years away, the nature of the Western countries has not changed. They won’t talk about laws with other countries unless they have nothing else to do.”

Lu Jin nodded repeatedly, he praised Gu Nianzhi’s words. “My Girl Is Right! When dealing with Western countries, if you really want to talk about the rules with them, you’ll be fooled. Will the rules they set be beneficial to you? Even if you use the paramecium’s single-cell thinking, it won’t be beneficial!”

“Yes, my father is still the one who sees things clearly.”

Lu Jin and Gu Nianzhi, the father and daughter pair, were simply bragging about each other in business.

Lu Yuan felt like he couldn’t look at them anymore and almost wanted to stand up and leave.

Song Jinning didn’t know much about this either, but this case was related to her. She wouldn’t accept it if she didn’t see Kevin and Guo Huining being brought to justice.

“... is there really no other way? Are We just going to let them drag this out day by day?”Song jinning frowned and said unhappily.

“Two months is enough to make Keven ‘sick’,”Gu Nianzhi said faintly. “If the trial doesn’t start soon, do you believe that Keven will be ‘seriously ill’Soon?”

“That’s the worst possible outcome,”Huo Shaoheng said calmly. “If that’s the case, we’ll wait for Keven to leave the country, then we’ll go overseas to enforce the law.”

Gu Nianzhi laughed and looked at Huo Shaoheng with sparkling eyes. “Huo Shaoheng, you’re amazing! We can also enforce our ‘long-arm jurisdiction’!”

Although they were joking, everyone present knew how difficult and dangerous it was to enforce the law outside the country.

Gu Nianzhi would never allow Huo Shaoheng to fall into such a dangerous situation.

Her eyes narrowed and she smiled. “Actually, there’s a way.”

“What Way?”Huo Shaoheng, Lu Yuan, song jinning, and Lu Jin asked in unison.

Gu Nianzhi tilted her head slightly and said slyly, “Our great-grandfather said that if we want to fight the United States, they have to fight them, and we have to fight us.”

“I think some of the higher-ups have forgotten that a case involving international jurisdiction is not the same as a case involving domestic jurisdiction. It’s not a one-or-the-other relationship.”

“So it doesn’t mean that if they fight a jurisdiction case, we can’t try this case.”

She closed her palms, “So, as long as the three magnates agree, we can hold a court session at the same time. Isn’t the American legal team fighting a jurisdictional lawsuit? Continue to fight with them. At the same time, we will officially hold a court session to try Keven and Guo Huining!”
