Chapter 221: Hitting Someone So Handsomely

"Are you still trying to argue your way out of this? Do you believe I will submit a report to deprive you of your scholarly title?" Officer Li struck the courtroom wooden block again.

Just like Bai Ruozhu said, all the saintly books he read over the decades were in vain.
