After being addicted to alchemy, the lady was kneeled down and licked by the Duke

Chapter 420: There will never be any quarrel. (page 12)

Popularizing legal concepts, the subsequent huge workload almost overwhelmed the newly established 'Legal Department' in Emerald City.

For a month, everyone from the cook in the city hall to Li Aili, the city lord, has been squatting at their posts, ready to receive cases from various places from the devil at any time.

This is a very important part.

It will set up a benchmark called 'Law' in everyone's heart and establish the living beings' understanding of the God of Law.

"Your Highness, there is a problem here." Joanna, with dark circles under her eyes, brought out a case.

"If the long-lived species and the short-lived species are guilty of the same crime, should they be sentenced to the same sentence?"

Hearing this, the whole office fell silent, even the sound of turning pages of books disappeared.

Everyone looked at Li Aili.

After staying up late and working overtime for several days, Li Aili's mind was dizzy. When she first heard this question, her thinking was still based on her past life experience.

"certainly……"

She stopped her voice just in time.

Wait, this question is too important.

How should a long-lived species that can live for thousands of years commit the same crime as a short-lived species that only lives for a hundred years?

“Of course it’s the same, our Emerald City is racially equal!

If the same crime is committed, it only takes 3 years for the short-lived species and 300 years for the long-lived species... Oh! God of law, isn't this racial discrimination? ! "

Li Aili glanced at the speaker. He was a Tankar mixed-blood elf, an immortal species.

"I object!" The person who stood up was a capable pure human, a short-lived species.

"Let me give you an example. For example, for the crime of theft, the sentence is from three to 20 years. The specific sentence is determined based on the value of the stolen items."

"Twenty years is 1/4 of your life for short-lived species, but for long-lived species, it is also a very short period of time for you, right?"

"Then for an immortal species, even if he steals all the seven secret treasures in the world! He only needs to live in prison for 140 years!"

"Damn it! Did you Immortals find a 'creative' way to make a fortune!?"

These words were like thunder on the ground, directly triggering a heated discussion among the employees in the office.

The office that was originally lifeless due to overtime work instantly turned into a toad pit.

No...much scarier than Toad Hole.

At least, Toad Pit was just for noisy fun, but here... As the verbal exchanges continued to escalate, the long-lived species and the short-lived species who spoke first were already preparing for real-person PK to decide whose opinion was more accurate.

Various folders are "flying freely" in the air. Before, they were brothers and sisters who worked overtime together and shared the joys and sorrows. In an instant, they became "class enemies" whose butt determines their head.

Li Aili and Joanna hid under the desk to "temporarily escape the limelight."

She expressionlessly took out an alchemy potion, and with a slight shake, the base fluid in the bottle turned into a calming potion.

Very good, let’s calm down first and then talk!

Just when she stood up and prepared to make a big move, the office door was kicked open with a bang.

The Duke's cold blue eyes were like 'forbidden magic', scanning the messy office.

He put his hand on the hilt of his sword, "What? Is there a riot here?"

The civilian staff of the Legal Department all shuddered and shook their heads wildly.

Their lord husbands were very famous, but they were all cut off one by one.

Just kidding, 'Kingslayer', 'Bloody Archduke', 'Clark Demon'... In short, in front of this person, even the evil ones crawling out of the abyss must behave like rabbits.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, we just had a little dispute over official matters." A civilian employee from the Legal Department explained.

Although no calming potion was thrown, they reached the same goal by different routes. Li Aili said: "Debate rationally and refuse to escalate to a fight."

Soon, the long-lived species and the short-lived species spontaneously formed two sides, "pro" and "con".

Under the watchful eye of the air-conditioned Duke, the debate begins.

But, should we call it the 'Legal Department'?

Even despite the low pressure from His Highness the Duke, he did not make any concessions on issues involving his own camp's interests.

The Duke walked straight through the noisy two parties and led his subordinate (front) to Li Aili.

"Oh, honey, you came just in time."

Li Aili was completely unaware that someone had unilaterally gone from 'quarrel' to 'cold war' with her, and finally reached the great harmony of life of 'self-persuasion'.

After giving her husband a quick, sloppy hug, she said, "Oh, by the way, so, what brings you here?"

Li Aili's brain was already filled with various criminal cases, so she ruled out unreliable options such as 'visiting class', 'sticky love period' and directly locked on 'government affairs exchange'.

Duke: "..."

He stared at his wife expressionlessly.

If Li Aili could read minds, she would definitely be able to see it above the head of His Excellency the Duke: [I and a hundred boxes of treasures can only choose one thing, which one do you choose? 】

[Change the question, which one do you choose, me or work? 】

Li Aili only saw the Duke looking at her deeply with his charming blue eyes.

They are already an old married couple, so I feel embarrassed to stare at her like this...

"I have received a complaint against you from a subordinate."

Li Aili: "Ah???"

The Duke stepped aside slightly, revealing Edward behind him who looked equally confused.

"You violated a husband's rights."

"Because you illegally forced his wife to work overtime."

"As a result, he stayed alone in the empty house for a month."

Joanna: "..."

Edward: "…………"

Li Aili: "………………"

A real old married couple exchanged quick glances.

Joanna: [What's going on? Did you say such disgusting things to His Highness? 】

Edward stared back numbly: [Don't ask me. I have no idea. none of my business. 】

Joanna understood, holding back a smile and looked at a certain Duke who was complaining in the name of a former subordinate.

Why didn't I realize that this person was so...hahaha!

Li Aili: "..."

She looked at Joanna, who had been working overtime with her for a month, and then at Edward, who was 'forbearing'.

In the end, it was the clerk from the Legal Department who was noisy and wanted to take action again that made her make up her mind.

"Holiday!" A certain city lord raised his head and roared.

The effect is really immediate, and the dogs don’t even quarrel even if they work overtime.

Li Aili nodded with satisfaction, and then added: "One day."

"Ow..."

There was a feeble wail in the office.

But it's better than nothing. Everyone packed up their things in a normal manner, and then rushed out of the office like a runaway dog.

The Duke was finally satisfied and brought his wife, who had been in the cold war for a month, back to the castle.

"Conard, I want cake! All kinds of delicious cakes!"

Those tricky cases were so terrifying that Li Aili felt like she would be bald for a month.

Now only a small cake can comfort her hurt heart.
