righteous bastard

I don’t know since when, I have believed that this world is not perfect, that hard work will not necessarily lead to gain, that good deeds will not necessarily lead to good karma, and those who uphold justice may end up in disrepute; It is the blessing of the gods and smooth sailing. Of course, they may have paid more secret hardships, but they can't see the light, we can't see it. And it is precisely because of the existence of such a bottomless world and rules that we cannot see and know, this world cannot be absolutely bright and perfect. Therefore, sometimes the world needs such a person. He is a bastard, who can freely roam between the two worlds of light and darkness. He can adjust his moral threshold at any time, and prevent his conscience from torturing himself at critical moments. But fortunately, he still has a little sense of justice. When he encounters a scum who has no bottom line, he will still take action to solve it. Of course, the method will be indecent, but the effect is often very pleasing. Like Howler's lawyer in this film.
I always feel that the setting of characters like Lawyer Howler - with justice and no morality - is entirely to cater to the audience's psychology, which is the expectation of "good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil". Since my generation of grass-roots people can’t help those who do bad things, and the official state institutions are often occupied by the bureaucrats, they neglect their duties and do nothing, and even get along with the bad guys (this is also a kind of psychology that the public can easily generate), so It is absolutely impossible to let the wicked be at ease, and the good people can't help the bad people, then there will definitely be "the wicked people grind", and when a wicked person "grinds" another wicked person, it seems that the wicked person is also covered with a layer. Thin light, and isn't that what we call a "sense of justice"?
It's just that this sense of justice also carries its own original sin. Although Howler finally brought the villain to justice, he still helped him win the previous lawsuit. That girl is really innocent, at least legally. Losing the justice that should belong to her, I don't know how this should be counted? Losing the pawn to protect the car is a tactical choice. For bystanders like Hauler and us, it may feel very happy, and it can make a big sigh of anger, but for the lost pawn, it is a great tragedy. Therefore, I always feel that it is really unfair and unkind to not give the beaten call girl a chance after the court scene is over. Maybe it won't change anything, but the girl who has been hurt twice should give us a hard look. Let's wake up, howler even has a bad taste in him, but let's smell ourselves and see if it's the same.
