Chapter 3443 Major Lawyer(1/2)
Sarni is calm.
Colonel Dillon got up early in the morning.
Before, he didn't care about Sarni, but today for some reason, he suddenly kicked Sarni on the bed:
"Damn pig, do you want to sleep instead of sleeping?"
In fact, Sarny had woken up a long time ago, and he just didn't want to face Colonel Dillon.
It hurts to be kicked.
Sarni stood up quickly.
It was obvious yesterday that Colonel Dillon was in a very bad mood.
Sarni didn't dare to ask any more questions.
"Stay here, don't go anywhere!" Colonel Dillon said and left angrily.
Originally, Sarni was still very worried and scared about today's escape.
But Colonel Dillon did this, which actually calmed her down.
There is nothing to be afraid of anymore.
She didn't want to stay in this devil's cave for another minute.
Maybe it will fail, but so what?
Compared with freedom, compared with being with the one you love, any price you pay is worth it.
After sitting silently in the room for more than half an hour, counting the time, Sarni got up and left.
This departure is a farewell, and I will never look back!
…
Major Hendlip decided to conduct a thorough investigation at Spabanios.
He knew that Colonel Dillon must be stealing and selling the seized smuggled goods.
Because many commanders in the US occupied areas did this.
The top brass of the U.S. military also ignored it.
What we want is just to win the battle.
Why bother with these little things?
Besides, it is also a good thing to keep the frontline officers' pockets full.
During World War II, it was common for the U.S. military to engage in self-indulgence, make money wantonly, and completely ignore military discipline.
For example, a group of U.S. troops once drove tanks into a bank in the German-occupied area of France, cooperated with the German tank commander, and stole $500 million worth of gold from the bank.
It seems unbelievable to many people, but this is what really happened during World War II.
Later, in the 1970s, the great director and superstar Clint Eastwood also made a movie based on this true event:
"Strategic Battle"!
Very ironic.
But that was the case with the U.S. military at that time.
The top doesn't care, but the bottom runs amok.
But it was at Spabanos that Major Hendlip decided to start his investigation.
Because of Colonel Dillon's arrogance and domineering attitude.
Because of Lieutenant Colonel Charles's "cowardice".
He and Coston were good friends, and he received help from the Coston Foundation when he was studying, and finally became a U.S. military lawyer!
He was very grateful to Coston.
Lieutenant Colonel Charles is also a good friend of Cawston. Faced with Colonel Dillon's unreasonable and aggressive behavior, he retreated again and again. Although Major Hendlip felt that he was too weak, it also aroused a desire for protection.
!
He needs to protect Cawston's friends.
And the most advantageous weapon in his hand is:
law!
To be precise, it is military law!
Apparently, however, he hit a wall at Spabanios.
Any of his investigations were met with non-violent disobedience by the 19th Cavalry Regiment.
Wherever he wanted to enter, he was blocked by the guarding US military on the grounds of being a military base.
The people or things he wanted to investigate were rejected by the US military on the grounds of military confidentiality.
He made no progress.
But it is precisely for this reason that it inspired his ambition even more.
As long as he can find evidence of Colonel Dillon's crime and send Colonel Dillon to a military court, he will become famous in one battle!
"Lieutenant Colonel Charles" Meng Shaoyuan has been silently observing Major Hendlip.
What a motivated major.
However, the major probably didn't know that he was actually invited to the Manila Port by himself.
Yes, Meng Shaoyuan proposed to Couston that he needed a military lawyer.
Keston quickly provided him with a list of lawyers currently in the Philippines that he could hire and all their detailed information.
After Meng Shaoyuan carefully read the information of these lawyers, he quickly locked on a name:
Hendryp Koeman.
Coleman's father is a lawyer.
And they are all very successful lawyers.
The last case he took on was defending a suspect accused of four murders.
The elder Coleman showed his incredible defense skills, accurately grasped a loophole in the prosecution's evidence, and successfully had his client unanimously found not guilty by the jury and released in court.
Facing the cries and angry accusations of the victims' families, the elder Koeman felt no guilt.
He believes that a good lawyer should stand wholeheartedly on the side of his client, regardless of whether the other party has done anything.
However, retribution comes very quickly.
After the trial, old Coleman's young and beautiful wife came to pick him up.
The result happened to be seen by his client.
That night, his client quietly sneaked into the old Coman's home.
He was discovered by old Coman and fought with him on the spot.
The client was so strong that he beat old Coleman to death and then strangled him to death after raping his wife.
In the end, in order to cover up the evidence, he burned down the old Coleman's house.
But he didn't find that there was another survivor at that time:
Hendryp Koeman.
While his father was fighting the gangsters, Hendlip hid under the bed in his room.
While setting fire to the house, he escaped through the window.
Hendlip was only seven years old at the time.
But he knew that he could not avenge his parents by himself, and rushing out rashly would only lead to death.
Later, when testifying against criminals, Hendlip pointed to a suspect without hesitation:
"it's him!"
Because when old Coleman was a lawyer, he almost offended all his relatives and friends.
Therefore, no one sympathizes with the Coleman family's plight.
As a result, a distant aunt of Hendlip took him in.
At an early age, Hendlip showed his talent for law.
Eventually, he received support from the Cawston Foundation.
Couston himself also thinks highly of this young man.
Hendlip was also very proud. After becoming a trainee lawyer, he still insisted on living with his distant aunt and taking care of his only relative in the world.
When his aunt grew old, she got into a lawsuit that she seemed certain to lose.
