Chapter 126

To speak frankly, for the FBI, there has never been a lawyer who dared to speak to them like this.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation does business — what reason do they need? They just take you, throw you in prison, and talk later. If there are any problems or objections, take it to court, and your lawyer can perform freely.

But lawyers who directly block their way and demand an explanation like now — to speak frankly, it's practically the first time.

By convention, lawyers who dare to do this get arrested first; if there's any resistance, empty the magazine first.

But now they don't dare! First, just now they kept looping continuously, as if for hours, days, years they had been trying to find a way out of this Big Door in the courtyard, to leave this bizarre courtyard.

Second, they know Qiu Ming, and can roughly guess that these three lawyers confronting them so confidently are people Qiu Ming brought.

So, even if the FBI has a bad temper or can ignore some procedures during investigations, right now they can only straighten their attitude and answer the doubts raised by the lawyer before them.

"Mr. Lawyer, we have the on-site body-worn cameras and the vehicle dashcams, recording everything at the scene.

According to the video records, a woman emerged from the books Mr. Sun Weimin carried, used some magic, attacked and injured our special agents.

Even now we still have one special agent in her hands, alive or dead unknown!

At the scene, our Action Team Leader at the time asked Mr. Sun Weimin what that thing was.

Mr. Sun Weimin answered, he personally answered, it was... the Devil! Also, after we brought him back, we conducted questioning.

Regarding this, Mr. Sun Weimin's answer was:

This devil, after being temporarily caught in the East, had no way to be dealt with, meaning no way to completely destroy it.

So Mr. Sun Weimin's religious teacher instructed him to bring the book trapping this devil to America and hand it to Mr. Chen Yaozu for disposal.

Obviously, transporting a devil — this dangerous act — he did not report in advance, did not get permission before transporting such a dangerous organism into America.

This already involves behavior endangering others' safety.

Regarding this, we can take measures to detain and prosecute him; as for whether the court will convict him, that has nothing to do with us, the FBI."

Regarding this, Rock Brian even directly took out his phone and pulled up several video clips for the elite lawyers before him — respectively the body-worn camera, the vehicle dashcam, and the interrogation record video.

The lawyers could clearly see from the footage that Sun Weimin indeed admitted verbally that the book he carried indeed trapped a devil.

"Ok!"

After watching the video, the lawyer was full of confidence: "Gentlemen, what a regret!

First, the definition of 'devil' is merely Mr. Sun's one-sided statement in the video.

It cannot prove this woman truly is a devil! Second, from the video, this woman is obviously just a woman with superpowers or hypnosis ability who can fly.

If you want to prove she truly is a devil, then you must produce evidence.

What will you use to prove this woman is a devil.

Moreover, you need to prove whether a devil is an organism, what category of organism, whether it belongs to dangerous organisms, and the basis for classification.

Gentlemen, in 1893, America once had an interesting lawsuit.

The opposing parties were an importer and a tax officer, the dispute focused on whether a tomato is a vegetable or a fruit.

According to America's Import Tariff Act at the time, vegetables were taxed, fruits were duty-free.

Even a tomato requires evidence to prove whether it's a vegetable or fruit; there's no reason a devil wouldn't need proof.

So, if you confirm that woman is a devil, then you must produce evidence to prove she indeed is a devil.

After finding evidence proving this woman is a devil, you still need to find legal provisions proving what category of organism a devil is? And in the current legal provisions, which article can prove my client transporting a devil to America constitutes a criminal act."

Rock Brian was left speechless; that's why the FBI hates lawyers most of all, bar none. But obviously the other side wasn't willing to let him off.

"Sir, Satan is a legal religious organization in America.

In the hearts of almost all Christians, Satan is the name of the devil.

But organizations believing in Satan, or acts of believing in Satan, are legal in America! Believing in the devil is legal, so what legal basis do you use to prove that if my client truly transported a devil, it was illegal? Also, Mr. Chen Yaozu, as a Religious Leader, even if she had an agreement with someone to help handle a devil.

Let's assume this devil is real for now.

Then what responsibility does he have?

Moreover, this devil hadn't even reached his hands before your subordinates let it go! Right?"

Facing this questioning, Rock Brian felt like he'd been f*cked over.

To speak frankly, if it weren't in this courtyard.

Or if these lawyers weren't brought by Qiu Ming.

With his temper, he absolutely could have arrested these people first, then made them resist, seize guns, assault police.

Do they really think the FBI are all vegetarians? But now obviously he can't operate like that; he can only swallow his grievance and speak: "Yes, right now I cannot prove they are guilty.

But I may apply to my superiors for a Special Detention Order!"

At this stage, the lawyer knew this matter was basically settled.

Unless like Old Bai Tou for the sake of nation-building, modifying laws or issuing new laws in the shortest time at the fastest speed just to destroy him.

But obviously, for a so-called unknown devil, it shouldn't come to that.

The FBI Supervisor's tough talk now is just finding a way to save face and back down.

Because the other party said 'may', not 'definitely'.

Feeling this trip had kicked an iron plate, Rock Brian, with remarkably flexible bottom line, slightly bowed to Chen Yaozu and asked: "Mr. Purple-robed Archbishop, may we leave now?"

To speak truthfully, the infinitely looping Big Door had already shattered their pride as FBI.

Making Rock Brian feel that temporarily lowering his head to leave here wasn't a shameful act.

They didn't want to continue being trapped here, never able to get out, forever only able to keep crossing that damn Big Door.

Chen Yaozu of course knew he couldn't trap them here forever; giving a lesson was enough: "Of course, although you came very impolitely, I have no authority to restrict your departure.

Just hope next time, if you want to enter my Territory, please get my permission first."

Rock Brian's face instantly flushed bright red; he recalled when he first heard those words, his slightly mocking reply.

Wind can enter, rain can enter, the King cannot enter — but they aren't the King, they're the FBI.

Now recalling his arrogant reply before this person, he felt so embarrassed his toes could practically dig out a villa.

"Thank you!"

Having finished speaking, he brought his people, turned, and walked out that wide-open doorway — only this time, after going out, they were no longer in the front courtyard that kept looping; they saw their own vehicle.

When all the FBI agents returned to their vehicles, someone finally couldn't hold back and broke down crying.

Endlessly looping in a world without time, without end, they fundamentally didn't know how much time had passed, didn't even know how many times they had opened doors, how many trips they had made.

If not for teammates still at their sides, they would have collapsed long ago.

This feeling was just like when they first started training, made a mistake, and received the Black Room punishment.

That was pitch darkness, no sound, no air movement, not a trace of light. Even the sound of their own voice was absorbed by the soundproofing cotton on the walls, not half an echo.

Staying in that kind of Black Room for one hour, some couldn't take it; those who could last two days without a mental breakdown were all solid, ringing-iron men.

They felt that infinite-looping doorway just now wasn't much different — equally soul-crushing.

So when they left, the vehicles practically launched off the line.

"Rock, we didn't bring that... Archbishop back with us now, how do we deal with the devil?"

Inside the car, the deputy asked Rock Brian — mainly because they still had a brother left in the devil's hands; were they just going to ignore it?

"Report up, request religious forces support!"

After the FBI people left, Chen Yaozu looked at these three lawyers with shining eyes, and so mentioned a sentence to Qiu Ming.

"These few elite lawyers are sharp-tongued, their business ability is also very strong — can you help me a favor?"

Qiu Ming saw things were half-resolved, his mood wasn't bad either: "Since Celestial Master Chen has spoken, I must consider carefully; you say it, if I can help there's no problem!"

The other party was straightforward, Chen Yaozu wasn't shy either.

"I have a person under me, called Su Yichen, some time ago he prosecuted America's Immigration Bureau.

Also my mother-in-law, she also prosecuted America's Immigration Bureau.

Now it seems they've been counter-sued too.

Although I have a bit of money, can afford lawyers, but I heard America's lawyers here actually rely on relationship networks.

Not necessarily able to win! I look at your three people here, business ability very strong, backbone also sufficient — can you help me fight these two lawsuits?"

Qiu Ming of course knew what he meant by sufficient backbone — just these three lawyers he brought, you say how elite they are? Actually in America they don't count as much!

In America whether business ability is strong or not depends on your relationship network and connections; only when both sides' relationship networks and connections are equal does business ability decide win or loss.

These three lawyers he brought, business ability certainly exists, but this time the backbone to stand before the FBI Acting Director and argue on principle — that is him and the power behind him.

Not entirely an embodiment of these three lawyers' own abilities.

However he didn't refuse Chen Yaozu's request, agreed very readily: "Can do!"

"Actually you shouldn't need to worry about the backbone issue! The setback the FBI suffered at your place this time won't be a secret, on the contrary it will spread.

Although America's lawsuits need connections and relationship networks, but as long as they're human, towards unknown power they'll all be filled with reverence.

And you, as the Daoist Gate's Twenty-fifth Patriarch's Seal Mastery Celestial Master in Los Angeles, innately represent mystery.

Not many people are willing to offend a religious leader who can make the FBI Acting Director suffer defeat for the sake of those few people at the Los Angeles Immigration Bureau."

After all mystery represents the unknown, and human fear of the known isn't really placed heavily on the heart, even atomic bombs.

But fear of the unknown — that is human nature, or the nature of all living things.

Moreover, Old Bai Tou can't stay much longer; in ten-odd days a replacement takes the stage, California here who knows what kind of reshuffle it'll face!

And Chen Yaozu's claim suing the Immigration Bureau counts for a fart!

Like his mother-in-law's case, at most pay some money.

The ones Su Yichen sued, worst case go in and sit a few years in prison.

Compared to a reshuffle, those don't even count as a matter.

So this topic passed in a flash, then Qiu Ming accompanied Chen Yaozu to inspect the factory building being erected not far away.

But obviously work had stopped; regarding this Qiu Ming found it somewhat strange — today isn't Saturday or Sunday!

"How come no work start today?"

Chen Yaozu smiled: "This morning when I got up, I cast a divination for myself, fearing a prison disaster.

So I pondered letting the construction team's people rest one day, to avoid implicating the innocent."

Qiu Ming understood — foreknowledge, no wait, divined and knew! "If really doing investment immigration, not considering going back? I heard all your matters have already been fully clarified, there's no restriction on you returning to the country!"

I heard that all your matters have already been completely clarified, and there are no more restrictions on your return to the country!

Regarding this misunderstanding, Chen Yaozu of course had to explain: "Getting a green card doesn't represent naturalizing as American!

When it's time to go back, naturally I'll go back!

Just like this Great Ming Pacification Commissioner Office you inscribed — it's a part of my cultivation!

These factory buildings, and the job positions provided, will also be a part of my cultivation!

To say something unpleasant, my cultivation's Daoist lineage has a bit of a hard bone, seems to not allow me to lose status.

Look, this Great Ming Pacification Commissioner Office, also counts as my cultivation's foundation — just look at this title and you know, still has a bit of Celestial Dynasty's pride!

If I join a foreign nationality, probably the Celestial Master's Seal in my hand might, because my status falls to barbarian, abandon me and leave.

After all treasures have spirit, also have arrogance! So rest assured!

I, Chen Yaozu, today am an Eastern person, a lifetime can only be an Eastern person!"

Qiu Ming heard this and set his heart at ease: "Alright then, if there's anything needing help, just give me a call. Sun Weimin I'll take away first!"

Qiu Ming set his mind at ease upon hearing this: "Alright then, if you need any help, just give me a call.

Truth be told, Sun Weimin didn't want to leave; originally his master's instruction was to let him think of every way to stay here, learn a point or half-point of skill.

"Good!"

To tell the truth, Sun Weimin didn't want to leave; originally his master's instruction was for him to think of every possible way to stay here and learn even a little bit of skill.

After all, it's said that the Domestic Daoist Lineage hasn't seen a Truly capable person Appear for a hundred-odd years.

Don't know What Reason.

Anyway, Besides what's recorded in the classics being quite true, there actually aren't several with Real Ability.

But Qiu Ming paid it no heed, still took him away, and before the FBI issued an arrest warrant for Sun Weimin, sent him onto a Plane back to the country.

Just as Qiu Ming said, not long after, when the Immigration Lawsuit went to Court Session, although there were twists and turns, Zhong Yu it was a Victory.

Olivia received Honorary Loss Compensation and Gender Discrimination Compensation, 42000 Dollars, a not small Income.

Another case also sent several key Responsibility persons of the Immigration Bureau into Prison Sentence, making America's court lose the ability of connections networks for the First Time.

As for Chen Yaozu's side, the Factory Building wasn't even built yet when he Received a call from Believers on the Georgia side.

Startled him into thinking he'd misheard!

Because, the Believers there told him, Georgia was Preparing to Consider whether to Collect Rain Tax from the disaster-stricken areas and Disaster Victims because of this disaster.

His first reaction was: Crazy? Even Rain Collects Tax!!!!
