Chapter 714 (1/2)
”You tangle because you know that Xiaozhuang will die in prison, right?” He Xie asked again.
This time, Li Ying finally changed slightly. He didn't expect he Xie to really understand him.
Even Xiaozhuang was moved and looked at Li Ying.
He always thought that Li Ying was just a persistent person. He wanted to bring himself to the law, just because this was his criterion and bottom line, but he didn't expect that Li Ying would have this worry.
He has seen the answer from Li Ying's face.
”Last year, the British officially abolished the death penalty law.” Li Ying sighed and then said, ”I know very well, because Wang Hai can afford a good lawyer, so no matter what he does, he will find a way out after a few years in prison, but Xiaozhuang will die as long as he goes to prison. Wang Hai will kill him. No one can help him, and I can't look at him all the time.”
”This is not the justice I want,” Li Ying shook his head sadly. ”I don't know what to do. Maybe what I have insisted on all the time is fundamentally wrong.”
”It's not you, nor the law, nor the world that's wrong.” He Xie smiled, ”it's just that the world you know is different from the reality. You now have two ways, either compromise to reality and give up your justice. Or stick to your own justice and correct the world. ”
”How to correct it?” Li Ying looked at He Xie.
”I don't go to hell, who goes to hell?” He Xie looked at him deeply. ”You told me before that justice is worth seeking. You know that the law can't give you the justice you want, so why abide by it? You will only spend your life in entanglement and pain, and you will never see the answer you want. ”
Li Ying's look slowly became dignified. He thought of what he Xie wanted to say.
”You want me to bypass the law and uphold justice with my own standards?” He asked.
”I'm a policeman.” He said it was like reminding He Xie and himself.
”This is the most ingenious thing.” He Xie said with a smile, ”the identity of the police gives you the right to punish evil, and your conscience and your kindness support your reasons for seeking justice.”
”What about the law?” Li Ying asked slowly.
”The law is a good tool. You must protect it.” He Xie said with a smile, ”the law deserves to be respected because it ensures the order of the world and the fairness of the vast majority of people, but you must admit that the law is not omnipotent. Many people can use it to escape it.”
Li Ying continues to listen.
”You are confused now, just because your thinking is too limited.” He Xie said with a smile, ”the justice you yearn for in your heart should actually be a supplement to the law. There is no contradiction between them.”
”Some people should have been imprisoned for life, but they escaped the punishment of the law. Then you should let them be punished more severely and let them know that the consequences will be more serious if they do not abide by the law. ” What evil way, ”is there any more severe punishment than life imprisonment?”
Li Ying was silent.
Death penalty, only death penalty.
”Some people don't deserve to die. Even the law thinks he doesn't deserve to die, but the reality is that he's dead.” He Xie then said, ”at this time, you have to find a way to uphold the justice. How can this person not only pay the price for what he has done, but also protect his right to continue to live given by the law.”
Speaking of this, he Xie spread his hand and said with a smile, ”so you see, your entanglement is actually unnecessary. The justice you adhere to in your heart is actually a more perfect human law.”
