Chapter 17:
Even the judge in the court was momentarily stunned by Hu Feng's words.
The Shanghai Daily News clearly showed this matter.
Morse was speechless for a moment. However, he soon reacted.
"No, I can't! This news media belongs to Great Xia. It can be faked and cannot be used as evidence in court. The real evidence should be the facts that are placed in front of you!
If you say it's salvaged, then it's salvaged?”
He hurriedly refuted Hu Feng. Just now, Hu Feng had almost changed his concept.
"Then, do you have any concrete evidence to prove that this cultural relic was stolen by a citizen of my Great Xia, Mr. Chen Feng? Mr. Chen only went to the Louvre for a trip. When did he steal your cultural relics? Mr. Morse, the story you fabricated cannot be used as evidence!
Besides,"
Hu Feng looked at him with sharp eyes and said bluntly,
"You guys slandered Mr. Chen Feng without any evidence. This is a crime of slander!”
With just a few sentences, Chen Feng had actually turned the tables and pinned a label on F Nation. This stunned the audience of Great Xia.
"Mr. Judge, I request a verdict on the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs 'actions are all slander against our defendant! Regardless of whether it was according to the laws of Country F or Great Xia, this was a definite crime of slander!”
Hu Feng immediately began to plead with the judge.
"Lawyer Hu! 6666!!”
At this moment, the Great Xia audience could no longer say anything else in their hearts. They could only shout to Hu Feng in their hearts,"Awesome!"”
They had seen people defend themselves, but they had never seen anyone who could accuse the plaintiff under such circumstances. They had never seen anyone who looked at the litigation team in Country F.
"You!"
Morse's mentality was a little broken by Hu Feng's continuous words. F * ck! How could there be such a thing? It was fine if he didn't return the cultural relics, and it was fine if he publicized it with great fanfare, but now he was going to sue him?!
Fortunately, Morse was an experienced lawyer. He steadied his mind and asked Hu Feng,"
"You're spouting nonsense. It's quite simple to prove the truth. Those two cultural relics are related to the case. As long as we take them out and appraise them, we'll know the result!
Your honor, I request to appraise the cultural relic!”
Before the judge could respond to his words.
Hu Feng directly said to him,
"Mr. Morse is wrong again. This is a cultural relic that was salvaged by Great Xia and has been stored. How can a cultural relic of this level be casually taken out for appraisal? This kind of cultural relic, regardless of its appearance or texture, can be judged to be a cultural relic of our Great Xia. Since it is a cultural relic of our Great Xia, how can it be appraised by others just like that?!
If Mr. Morse can prove that this is a cultural relic related to the West, he can take it to you for appraisal. Otherwise, what right do you have?
"Today, an authentic Mona Lisa was lost in my Great Xia's museum. I seriously suspect that this authentic work was taken by the Louvre in Country F. Why don't the Louvre take out this Mona Lisa and let us appraise it properly?”
Hu Feng's words directly rendered all of them speechless.
Because there was nothing wrong! You don't have any evidence to prove that this animal head belongs to the Louvre? I'm sorry! "It's a precious cultural relic of our Great Xia. You have to know that once such a precious thing is treasured and taken out for appraisal, it might be damaged? Can you bear this loss?
By the same logic, without any evidence, we suspect that your Mona Lisa was stolen. Our Mona Lisa is the real one, but it's lost. Why don't we take it out and have it appraised?!
Hu Feng directly seized this parallel world. The legal logic in this aspect left them speechless.
On the French side, after hearing this, their expressions changed drastically. If they wanted to appraise the beast head in Great Xia, they had to first take the Mona Lisa for appraisal? How was this possible?
The Mona Lisa was a famous painting. To appraise it, one had to take it out of the frame. The damage it would cause was unimaginable. That was impossible.
But now, Hu Feng's logic seemed to be correct. It wasn't that easy to appraise the beast head. Moreover, this beast head was indeed filled with Great Xia elements.
"No, I can't! You are being unreasonable. This beast head is related to this incident, so you should take it out to be appraised?”
Morse said.
"No, no, no! "If you want to appraise it, you can do so. However, you have to produce evidence first. Otherwise, how can you easily appraise the cultural relics of my Great Xia?”
Hu Feng also shook his head.
Now, his logic had become a dead end. Get the evidence first? No evidence? What are you appraising?
However, if he didn't appraise it, he wouldn't be able to find any evidence.
However, the French did not have any proof that Chen Feng was the thief.
This defense shocked everyone!
"There's a saying in the law that goes,'no crime is suspected.' Western legal systems especially worship this saying, but what am I seeing today? "A team without any evidence sued my client in court and slandered him. Because of his identity as a Great Xia citizen, they pinned the crime of theft on his head.
I believe that this is not something a country that pursues the rule of law can do. Please take care of yourself!”
Under Hu Feng's words, the litigation team from Country F frowned and looked at Hu Feng in shock and anger, but they could not say anything.
"You, you thieves!”
In their anger, the French people pointed at Hu Feng and cursed.
"Lawyer of Country F, please mind your words!”
Among the judges, the Great Xia judge reminded him. His expression was slightly agitated. With Hu Feng's words, Country F's lawsuit seemed very weak. Although he had to remain neutral as a judge of the International Court of Justice, he was a Great Xia person deep down. Seeing Hu Feng's defense, he was naturally happy. If this defense was successful, then the two beast heads would be able to see light! Zhengda! It was going to be exhibited in a museum in Great Xia!
Everyone knew that Chen Feng was the one who had taken the cultural relic, but so what? Why should I let you appraise the cultural relics that my Great Xia has salvaged and treasured?
This was the most important thing in Hu Feng's defense this time.
Listening to the exasperated words of the French people.
In the court, a voice once again silenced the entire place.
"Thief? Even if he stole this cultural relic? So what?"
