Chapter 1 Life in 1968

On March 8, 1968, the spring was already in full bloom, but this year, the climate in New York was abnormal, with little sunshine and the howling wind could not blow away the drooping clouds. Spring seemed out of reach.

Edward Young leaned against the back of the restaurant's horn chair, but he felt that he was becoming more and more integrated into the world's largest and most complex city.

Two years ago, I traveled to this era inexplicably. I originally expected to do something big, but I found that there were neither superpowers nor systems, and even the memories of my previous life were vague. Not to mention the stock numbers and lottery codes, I couldn’t figure out the general historical direction.

In desperation, I had to wait for it to survive and wait for development. Even if I cannot release the time traveler's golden finger, at least I have to live my life peacefully.

Under this belief, he chose to continue studying rather than serve in the military. The latter was nominally a manifestation of patriotism, but in fact he was kicked into the distant jungle of the Indochina Peninsula with pythons or the Viet Cong guerrillas for the benefit of his small group.

The pythons are better off dealing with it, after all, they don’t know how to set traps without hands - they are usually filled with sharp bamboo sticks soaked in old shit and urine, and they won’t fiddle with ak47.

For the Americans, the level of danger of the Viet Cong guerrillas is high in hell. After all, the latter only exists in religious stories, while the former always stirs everyone's nerves on TV and newspapers.

Fortunately, the overall quality of the body occupied is pretty good. As a mixed-race Jewish and Chinese, the IQ is extremely high. The original owner wasted his life from first grade to twelve years (equivalent to elementary school to high school), but it was okay for undergraduate studies. The Department of Oriental History of New York City University is a good public university, but it is mostly thanks to his own half of Chinese origin. The university is a teaching institution and a research institution. It is hard to say whether it can enter as a student or a teaching aid, whether it is a researcher or a research subject.

It is a dream to enter Yale Law School for such goods.

But things were different after Edward traveled.

Of course, the entrance exam is not easy, but it is not too headache. At least Edward thinks it is more convenient than the previous life of the domestic college entrance examination and the top universities in his/her life. Moreover, the US higher education has always been lenient and strict. Tuition fees for private universities such as Yale are also sky-high for ordinary people. Middle-class families may not be able to pay it out. They can only complete their studies with student loans and pay it off slowly after work.

In this way, the admission threshold for Yale Law School is not terrible. He was a beast-level academic master in his previous life. After two years of awakening of the soul of the academic master, he took the initiative to recite student loans for twenty years, and finally got what he wanted. Moreover, he also had a small plan. Since the soul of the academic master can awaken, he might have recovered his memories of the previous life by the way. Then don't be too happy.

Unfortunately, my memories of my previous life are still messy, and I have no choice but to continue to live.

He tried to act like a contemporary American, and slowly got involved in the crowd. With this intelligence and education, after graduation, he could first go to the judicial system to be an assistant prosecutor for a few years. The judges' assistants were all good resumes and connections. Then he went to a large law firm to slowly get a salary partner. When he was 40 years old, he could almost become a salary-giving partner. He could barely get the ticket to the upper class, and from then on, he would have to pay off his student loan, otherwise he would be worse than death after being on the list of dishonest trust.

By then, China also changed its opening, using its relationship between politics and business to invest heavily, and gained the title of "old friend of the Chinese people" and benefited the country, the people and themselves. This life would not be in vain.

"Sorry, Mr. Nizo, although I thank you for your trust in me, I really can't help you!" Edward Young looked at the handsome but rough man sitting opposite him, and said cautiously. "And, I'm really curious about who gave you the idea to come to me. I remember that we had never met before."

"fxxk." is called Nizo's swear words.

Edward frowned.

The other party quickly said that he pressed his hands on the table and leaned forward to apologize: "I'm sorry, this mantra... I'm used to it, please don't mind."

Edward had not yet touched the words, but once again heard the words starting with f. The other party immediately covered his mouth and looked embarrassed.

"It's okay, relax, I can understand. Speaking of which, this is also your professional habit."

"Thank you for your understanding, fxxk, otherwise I really can't speak well."

"If you don't mind, please give me an answer. Is it for you to come to me?!" Edward continued his original topic. This is very important. The United States is the world's largest lawsuit country, but no one will ask students to give advice, even if he is a student at Yale Law School.

The other party raised his hands and signaled to surrender. "We Italians have always been refreshing and honest. After all, honesty means sincerity. I said fxxk directly, it was Jeff, and he suggested that I come to you and think of a solution."

"Jeff?" Edward frowned.

After saying "Jeffrey Epstein", Nizo tactfully stopped speaking and quietly waited for a reply.

"This guy..." Edward was a little angry. After breathing a long sigh, he tried to make his expression look more ordinary, and he swallowed the fxxk he wanted to give! Many times the f-head is more expressive than Shakespeare and sonnets.

Damn it, don’t just take a relaxed and comfortable spring break!

"I wasn't trying to be polite to you just now, Mr. Nizo. In fact, in the United States, there has never been a market for self-moodiness. I said you should ask for a smart person, and I am not humble either. I am a first-year student in law school and I have not even obtained the qualification for a lawyer. How can I sit in the defense seat? Sorry, I can't help you." After that, I stood up from the chair.

Nizo quickly stopped him, "Please wait. Jeff from fxxk said the same thing when he recommended you to me. Then I asked him to recommend other lawyers, or professional legal professionals, such as university law professors or something. fxxxk, but after thinking for a long time, he still recommended you to me and said that in similar situations, you are the best candidate."

"Ha? This is so honorable!" But there was no excitement on his face when he said this, but his tone was slightly softer.

There are not many people in Brooklyn and even New York who can make the "famous" Mr. Nizo speak like this, and he is probably the youngest.

"If possible, please call me Ferriche."

"Well, Mr. Ferriche. I have always taken Jeff's advice seriously, so let's talk about it first. And you and I grew up in the Polo Park neighborhood in Brooklyn. Jews and Italians are neighbors."

"That's certainly. Although we often fight each other when we were young, we all think that if an Italian child gets closer to a Jew, it often means that he is smarter and may be better at studying in the future."

"Yes, it's a coincidence. We have a similar view. The Jewish children and Italian boys can play with each other, which means that they are brave and able to fight, and will be more masculine in the future. I always think that John Wayne is likely to have Italian ancestry." Edward's face finally showed a smile.

Then the deep thought in my heart was: "Hey, these cute Italians, who fought like this in World War II, could even be domineering in the United States in the name of the mafia, and became a symbol of courage. It can be seen that the American martial ethics are low and the national character of Ferra."

The atmosphere between the two sides eased a lot, and he still hated what happened halfway through the road. This was contrary to the major policy of "gou". The most roaring thing is to make a fortune in silence.

However, Jeffrey Epstein's recommendation, he could not give him any face. The two had a good personal relationship. Epstein and his father, Epstein, both have natural skills. They are not big names, but they have many absolutely "effective" ways in the upper class. The only disadvantage is that they are shameless.

For reserve legal professionals, this is a necessity for professional connections.

"Mr. Ferriche"

"Just call me Ferriche." The person in front of him spoke enthusiastically and cheerfully and humblely, and it was hard to think that this was a cruel person from the underground society.

As a member of the future elite group, Edward naturally would not pay attention to such a role, at least it is not necessary at the moment.

But they all came from Brooklyn and I still heard of his reputation. At this time, I couldn't help but feel a little proud when I saw that he had lost his former "style" in front of me.

"Well, Ferriche, you answer me a question first, don't lie."

"I promise."

"As far as I know, you are also affiliated with the 'family'. No matter the size of the 'family', you have your own lawyer. So why are you looking for me?"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried it and pushed it.

Let me talk to you, especially new readers who saw the recommendations.

I just learned that this name is too similar to the Chinese translation of "legal     high", which may cause misunderstandings to readers, thinking that this is a legal text focused on court debate. In fact, the editor has been brought to the ditch by me...

But old readers should know that I am actually an author who focuses on the dynasty. Justice is a skinny person, and it is still about the turbulent 1960s and 1970s. I hope everyone likes it.

In terms of law, it is also relatively niche because the protagonist's development route is a constitutional appeal lawyer. This is really unpopular. Moreover, the constitution is not as conflicting as the criminal law. It requires a lot of foreshadowing and relevant legal knowledge popularization. This aspect is not easy to deal with. I have a headache. Please include it and I will work hard to deal with it.

In terms of the plot, it was realistic at the beginning. The protagonist had to go through several cases even if he was really a killer. Please be patient.

As for old readers, ahem, I know, you are not concerned about this book...

Well, although "Pingtan of Troubled Times" has been completed (I just discovered this in June...), this book will definitely continue to be written, and it will probably be a new public account. In fact, the outline and detailed outline at the back of this book are all good, and the number of manuscripts is about 2 cm thick.

The main text has been written more than 100,000 words. In short, I will strive for excellence.
Chapter completed!
