Poirot's human touch

Remember Poirot’s passionate statement? The rule of law must be above all else! Even if it is not fair, you should regain your faith to make it stronger over time! Once legal beliefs collapse, civilized society will have no shelter! Why is Luo Bo so angry? Because he unexpectedly betrayed the principle of the supremacy of law that he has upheld for a long time.
In the end, being a legal person is more or less disappointed. But returning to the environment where the legal system was not sound at that time, people expected a way to achieve justice that the law could not give --- everything was so reasonable.
Law and justice are never synonymous. As the bottom line of morality, law cannot meet the high standards of these noble people. For the same reason, it is difficult to unify the moral standards of people of different classes, otherwise there will be so many injustices. It is precisely because of this injustice that I see people's pursuit and desire for justice in this conflict of legal principles.
