Or perhaps, he was deliberately stalling for time and waiting for an order from his superior.

At that moment, the staff member, who had just left returned to the courtroom, walked to the judge and whispered a few words in his ear.

The judge's expression changed slightly, and he nodded. Then, he sat up straight, as if he had received clear instructions and knew what to do next.

"Alright!" The judge agreed immediately. "In that case, please answer the plaintiff's lawyer's questions truthfully and seriously."

Brie nodded.
