Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 2103: Chapter 2103: What Can You Do to me? (second update)

This time, Gu Nianzhi was silent for a long time. It was so long that even her own team thought she couldn’t hold on any longer.

Her assistant asked softly, “Chief Gu, do you want to adjourn the Court for now?”

The corners of Gu Nianzhi’s mouth twitched. “Let’s ask about the situation first.”

She stared unblinkingly at Lu Anpeng, she said,”... the newly appointed diplomat? Lu Anpeng, I think you know that this case was committed more than two months ago. If he’s only a diplomat now, I don’t think diplomatic immunity can be used on him.”

Lu Anpeng thought to himself, don’t tell me I don’t even know this? Otherwise, how would I be able to survive in the American legal world?

He unhurriedly took out the letter of appointment that the President of the United States had given to Keven, he pointed at the time and date on it and said, “Lawyer Gu, please take a good look at it. The time our president appointed Keven as cultural counselor happened to be the day before Christmas Eve last year, which was December 23rd.”

“Christmas Eve is December 24th. This letter of appointment has already come into effect.”

Lu Anpeng smiled, looking as if he had a plan in mind.

There was an uproar inside and outside the court.

The people sitting next to Gu Nianzhi looked at each other, wondering why they hadn’t heard anything since the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had already filed a report?

If the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had known that Keven was an American diplomat when they had arrested him, why hadn’t the Ministry of Foreign Affairs notified them?

The internet outside the court was also filled with excitement. Some people were even deliberately trying to lead the way.

[ what’s wrong with diplomats? A prince breaking the law is the same as a commoner, let alone a diplomat? ].

[ upstairs is either stupid or poisonous. are diplomats and princes the same concept? Besides, how can there be a real prince in modern society? Even if there is one, it’s still a mascot. Does it have real power? ].

[ upstairs is a brainless little pink. Check it out with the Saudi prince. Does it have real power? ].

[ pui! Pui! Pui! Don’t try to change the concept on purpose. There’s no way to wash away the immunity of diplomats. They just have it. If they don’t accept it, they’ll jump off the building! ].

..

This wave of public opinion was obviously not good for Gu Nianzhi. It was also very bad for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The group of bigwigs who were watching the live broadcast of the interrogation in the Imperial Military Headquarters’conference room were all very surprised.

Speaker long looked at prime minister white and said unhappily, “Old white, what do you mean? The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is purposely holding us back, right?”

Prime Minister Bai smiled bitterly and said, “This is also the first time I’ve heard of it. Old Long, don’t be anxious. I’ll get someone to find out what’s going on.”

Just as they were investigating internally, Lu Anpeng had already laid out all the procedures.

Including the letter of appointment of the American president, a copy of the record in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Huaxia Empire, and the effective date.

It was neither too much nor too little. It was exactly the day before Keven committed the crime.

In other words, on Christmas Eve, he was officially recognized by both sides as the cultural counselor of the United States embassy in the imperial capital.

His position was neither too high nor too low. It was the lowest level of diplomatic immunity.

However, he did not have any real power. It was like an honorary position. In the United States, he did not even need the approval of Congress. The president alone could make the decisions.

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes narrowed slightly when she thought about the unreliable president in the United States.

He was indeed capable of doing such a thing.

Her fingers tapped on the plaintiff’s seat in front of her, but her expression did not change.

After Lu Anpeng presented all the evidence, he immediately asked the court martial to dismiss the case and not allow an appeal.

He said, “This is not a question of jurisdiction, but a question that can not be litigated at all.”

Gu Nianzhi cut him off rudely and asked in a low voice, “If that’s the case, why did you fight a jurisdiction case for two months? Are you deliberately stalling for time?”

She hit the nail on the head. Even Lu Anpeng, who had seen the big picture before, paused for a moment.

He smiled awkwardly and said,”... how is that possible?”

“How is that not possible? Do you think everyone is stupid?”Gu Nianzhi pointed at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs record that her team had just transferred over, she said, “Yes, the President of the United States’appointment letter did indeed state the date of December 23rd, but when we got the Ministry of Foreign Affairs record, it showed that the date was yesterday.”

“Why did you wait for more than two months before filing it? Didn’t you guys fight for more than two months before you managed to obtain this backdated appointment letter?”

In other words, the appointment letter was actually obtained only recently. However, the date on which they managed to obtain this appointment letter was backdated, and it was earlier than the actual appointment date.

However, this kind of situation, which was obviously a scam, was passed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Huaxia Empire. This operation was simply even more flashy.

Lu Anpeng spread his hands and made a gesture of “What can you do to me?” He smiled and said, “No matter what, this is the appointment letter signed by our President. It has also been filed and approved by Your Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This means that you have also recognized Keven as a diplomat, starting from December 23rd of last year.”

“This case happened on the night of December 24th of last year. At that time, Keven was already recognized as a diplomat by both sides and enjoyed diplomatic immunity according to the law.”

“As for why we were willing to fight the jurisdiction case for two months, we were happy to do so. Your Court has also filed a case, so why didn’t you fight it?”

Gu Nianzhi sneered. “You were the one who deliberately delayed the time with the jurisdiction case so that you could operate behind the scenes and get this diplomatic appointment letter with a date back.”

“Now you’re trying to turn the tables on me. This is outrageous!”

“I think lawyer Gu knows better than I do whether this makes sense or not!”

Everyone in the court and outside could see clearly that Gu Nianzhi was in a very disadvantageous position. It was not her opponent who had sabotaged her, but her own people. It was the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who had disregarded principles and regulations, the deputy minister who had registered and sealed Keven’s backdate appointment letter!

Prime Minister Bai was furious at this time. He scolded the Vice Minister of Ministry of Foreign Affairs and ordered him to suspend his post immediately. He also ordered people to review his work.

At the same time, the cabinet started the self-investigation procedure to sort out the work procedures of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Speaker Long was not satisfied. He threatened to start the impeachment procedure of the Senate. Even the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Prime Minister Bai did not want to let it go.

Prime Minister Bai sighed and said, “Old long, if this makes you happy, then do it. But the most important thing now is to think about how to handle the case of Keven.”

General Ji said coldly, “I don’t care if he is a diplomat or not, and I don’t care when he became a diplomat! In short, he killed our soldiers on our land. I Can’t let him go!”

Prime Minister Bai and speaker long looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other’s eyes.

It wasn’t that there was no other way to handle this matter, but because the trial had already started, the whole world knew about Keven’s new identity. Even if they knew there was a trap, it wouldn’t be so easy to break the situation.

It looked like Gu Nianzhi was doomed for this somersault.

Although she had been scapegoated by a mole, a lawyer who had never lost before was about to meet her Waterloo.

There were already people online who were starting to be sarcastic.

[ Haha, I’ve Been On the road too many times at night, I’ll always meet a ghost. Chief GU is no exception. ].

[ that’s right, that’s right. weren’t you bragging too much earlier? But she wasn’t wronged, at least she had a deputy minister to fall in love with her. Hahaha ].

“What nonsense is the person above telling the truth! Look at the faces of those gu fans, they’re all so angry that they’re deformed, hahahahaha!”.

“The person above is right! I can laugh for a year!”.

..

The courtroom was dead silent, everyone’s eyes were on Gu Nianzhi.

She stood coldly behind the plaintiff’s bench, in front of the big screen, and had just paused the surveillance video.

Against the backdrop of blood and fire, her back was thin and slender. Her skin was as cold as jade, and her gaze was bone-chilling.

Lu Jin looked from the corner where he was sitting and suddenly felt that Gu Nianzhi looked exactly like Qin Suwen from back in the day. She even looked somewhat similar to he zhichu’s expression.

After all, they were Qin Suwen’s biological children..

Lu Jin’s heart was filled with mixed feelings, and he had forgotten about his excitement and indignation.

Lu Yuan sat beside Lu Jin with a solemn expression on his face and did not speak.

At this moment, Gu Nianzhi was thinking nervously in her mind. Could it be that she no longer had any cards in her hands?

Gu Nianzhi’s memory was very good. Just like Lu Jin, it was like a camera.

Right now, her mind was actually replaying all of her information.

Her gaze fell on the letter of appointment for the President of the United States that Lu Anpeng had shown her. A flash of inspiration came to Gu Nianzhi. She suddenly thought of some interesting information that Huo Shaoheng had found out when he had ordered the special operations forces to investigate Keven abroad.

Her peach-colored lips slowly curved upwards.

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes narrowed as she looked at Lu Anpeng. “Are you sure that this letter of appointment for the President of the United States is for Keven to be the cultural counselor?”

Lu Anpeng nodded calmly. “There’s also a passport number that can be cross-referenced.”

Gu Nianzhi’s smile faded. She looked at Lu Anpeng seriously and asked, “Is that so? Are you sure?”

This was the second update of the day: chapter 2103, “What can you do to me?”.

It was the second update of the day.

It was a reminder to everyone that the monthly votes could be reserved until the end of the month, when the votes would be doubled.

The last three days of the end of December and the first seven days of January would be double the monthly votes.

* MWAH, Little Angels and big shots *
