Chapter 122

"If the circumstances are serious and cause serious injury, the punishment is fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years.

If one intentionally injures another causing death, or causes serious injury and severe disability by especially cruel means, the punishment is fixed-term imprisonment of not less than ten years, life imprisonment, or the death penalty!"

The captain recited the legal provisions while flipping open the Criminal Code.

Unexpectedly, the page of Article 234 of the Criminal Code that he flipped open actually had no reaction at all, unlike the previous few times.

"This official, have you ever heard of learning from one's mistakes? This little woman is not that kind of brainless stupid thing, so how could she fall into the same pit continuously?

When imprisoned in this cage of criminal law provisions, it was you who said this little woman is merely a ghost object, not human, and furthermore not a legal person participating in superstitious activities with multiple people.

Therefore, she does not conform to the legal person stipulated in Article 300 of the Criminal Code.

Thus, they announced this little woman innocent and released her to do research.

This little woman then ran away!

The second time you found me, you arrested me according to the provisions of Article 301 of the Criminal Code.

This regulation stipulates that for those who gather a crowd to engage in licentious activities, the ringleaders or those who participate repeatedly shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years, criminal detention, or public surveillance.

This little woman was then escorted back by you from outside.

But soon, you released her again, placing her in these underground rooms.

The reason was still that same sentence: this little woman is not human, so she is not a legal implementation subject."

Finish speaking, she pointed at the Criminal Codes in the guards' hands: "At first this treasure did not acknowledge it, unwilling to release.

It was you who found the Supreme Court interpretation official document, and released this little woman again to do what research! This little woman ran again! The third time, you caught this little woman back from a man's bed, and again used the Supreme Court interpretation official document to release me once more from this Legalist treasure.

Do you also not know that things can happen once, twice, but not a third time?

For example, right now! This treasure and I are already familiar.

From the day you issued the official document releasing me for the third time, this little woman, even all ghost objects under heaven, are no longer the legal person of this treasure.

That is to say, even if the provisions do not detail it, this little woman originally still barely belonged under its jurisdiction.

But three consecutive negations, and the last two even issued Supreme Court official documents.

Taking these three precedents as basis, and the latter two Supreme Court official document interpretations, from that day on, all ghost objects under heaven no longer belong under its jurisdiction! I do not know what a Supreme Court official document is, but this little woman guesses it should be the highest-level Ministry of Justice official document.

In that treasure's cage of legal provisions, this little woman could also perceive the Supreme Court official document's negation of that cage's detention of ghost objects.

So, the treasure in your hands has already lost effect on us ghost objects! Hahahahaha!"

Peals of coquettish laughter echoed in the room, rendering everyone at the place speechless, because the Criminal Codes in their hands indeed no longer had any reaction.

"Most importantly, this little woman also knows clearly that even though us ghost objects are now no longer within this treasure's jurisdictional scope.

However, as long as us ghost objects commit homicide, this treasure can again restore temporary jurisdiction over the ghost object that committed the crime at that time and the duty to try it.

Therefore, although this little woman has pleasured these many scholars, she has never taken their lives.

Have you seen a single one of them breathe their last? With proper recuperation for half a year or a year, their bodies can still recover, although their constitutions may be weaker afterward and their lives shorter, but surviving this year is still no problem! Do you few want to try this little woman's flavor?"

The coquettish laughter of the bewitching woman before them entered their ears, and the few guards present felt an unbearable burning in their lower abdomens as if they had swallowed fire.

But the Licenses and Criminal Codes in their hands immediately opportunely emitted a faint red light to protect them, causing their originally distracted minds and irrepressible lust to instantly recover calm like a fire doused by ice water.

But this brief turn of events made the captain's eyes brighten; he rapidly flipped open the Criminal Code: "You are launching an attack on us.

Article 277, Paragraph 4 of the Criminal Code: violently assaulting a people's police officer who is performing duties according to law shall be punished by fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention, or public surveillance.

Using firearms, controlled knives, or means such as driving a motor vehicle to ram, seriously endangering their personal safety, shall be punished by fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than seven years.

You just launched a violent assault on us……"

The Criminal Code did not react……

But the guard captain who had found a train of thought took out another booklet from his pocket, flipped it open: "According to relevant provisions of the Public Security Administration Punishment Law, you have seriously violated others' personal and property safety, and the circumstances are egregious.

You will now be compulsorily summoned, and temporarily given an administrative detention penalty of 10 days, and we will consider whether to initiate criminal prosecution against you……"

This was also a desperate attempt; even the Criminal Code couldn't manage her, he didn't know if the Public Security Administration Punishment Law could manage her, but he'd try it anyway!

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished reciting those few sentences, the "Public Security Administration Punishment Law" in his hand instantly whipped out several chains in the blink of an eye, the chains even bearing shackles, directly cuffing the woman's hands and feet.

"Ah!"

The woman's face changed drastically, not expecting there to be this twist. The chains and shackles did not turn according to her will; in the blink of an eye they dragged the woman into this red booklet.

"Ha! Success!"

The captain joyfully snapped the red booklet shut, wrapping it up at the fastest speed.

But the team members, amidst their joy, still wore worried expressions.

"Right, this time no need to release her, she can come out on her own!"

"Captain, what do we do after 10 days?"

Although they had smoothly caught that female ghost and were happy, they also knew administrative detention of 10 days was already the maximum.

But what about after 10 days?

Regarding this question, the captain also had a headache:

"Our duty is to catch it; as for how to handle it after catching it, is that something for us to consider?"

But the other team members still had complaints:

"These researchers just had to play around, look how it turned out!

Before, it still feared the Criminal Code; although just finding it took a tremendous amount of effort, ultimately there was a way to deal with it.

Now it doesn't even fear anymore, directly causing harm in the research institute.

And it's especially clever, good at learning legal loopholes; after this release it'll definitely be just as familiar with the Public Security Administration Regulations.

Wanting to catch it in the future will be even harder.

What do we do about this!"

A trace of gloom flashed in the captain's gaze, but he did not pick up this topic: "Notify medical personnel to enter and save people, I'm going to find the person in charge of this project!"

……

After Chen Yaozu received a call from Domestic, he agreed to help resolve the Peach Blossom Nightmare matter, but he put forward two demands.

He said that due to cultivation reasons, he could not return to the country for the time being, so the copy of the "Public Security Administration Punishment Regulations" that had detained the Peach Blossom Nightmare needed someone to send it over.

Additionally, he needed a person with a bit of Permission / Authority to write a 【Great Ming Pacification Office】 Yamen signboard for him.

Unexpectedly, the Opposite Side actually agreed very readily!

And that very afternoon, he waited for a crew-cut middle-aged man who acted cleanly and efficiently, with every movement precise and methodical.

"Hello, Mr. Chen! My name is Qiu Ming, I handle passport re-issuance work right here in Los Angeles.

I know a bit of brush calligraphy; I received orders to come write the signboard for you!"

Chen Yaozu hurriedly extended his right hand, feeling the thick old calluses on the other's tiger's mouth, and understood in his heart.

"Hello! Hello!

Thank you for making the trip!"

The characters were written very quickly, and with deep penetration, naturally possessing a kind of imposing momentum.

The moment the final stroke was completed and it was hung up, Chen Yaozu felt this Great Ming Pacification Commissioner Office Yamen come alive.

After seeing off Mr. Qiu Ming, Chen Yaozu stepped through the door; that one step across the threshold seemed like stepping into another world.

He felt that he and this Great Ming Pacification Commissioner Office Yamen had already linked up in aura into an upright and dignified whole.

And this aura was right now helping him suppress the chaotic emotions in his heart; at this moment his heart was completely clear, and moreover, drawing on those chaotic emotions, it was nurturing imposing momentum.

While on the other side of the ocean, an Eastern man wearing a jacket carried a laptop bag through security, and boarded a plane flying to America Los Angeles.

He didn't even dare let this laptop bag leave his side half a step; even when eating and drinking on the plane, one of his hands had to stay on this laptop bag.

His caution naturally drew others' attention.

Someone immediately took the opportunity of going to the restroom to find a flight attendant, narrated the suspicious points of this Eastern man, and demanded they go check that Eastern man's laptop bag.

He suspected there might be dangerous items inside! Hearing the other's speculation, the flight attendants were a bit tense, and hurriedly notified the Security Guard.
