Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

What are your thoughts?

Everyone fell silent, lost in thought.

Xu De couldn't provide any information about Zhang Yue's mental state... After all, the surveillance footage at the crime scene couldn't prove anything, so how could he provide any corroborating evidence?

There was nothing I could do, even though I had a mental illness assessment certificate.

However, in the legal system, the "Mental Illness Protection Act" does not look at certificates, but rather at whether the person was mentally ill during the time of the incident.

Even if they were never sick before the incident, they contracted the illness within a few short seconds during the incident, and the illness manifested...

You can still avoid criminal liability, but the problem is... how do you prove it?

How can Xu De prove it?

"Regarding the current case, I believe a conservative trial is the most appropriate course of action."

In a daze.

Suddenly a voice came from below. Turning his head, he saw it was the presiding judge of the civil court.

The other person took a sip of tea from their thermos and said slowly:

"It is most reasonable to try the case based on the assumption that the defendant bears partial criminal responsibility."

"We do not believe the other party is mentally ill, but we do not deny that they are mentally ill either. We will conduct the trial in accordance with Article 18 of the Criminal Code, Paragraph 3 of the 'Mental Illness Protection Act,' which stipulates that they shall bear partial criminal responsibility."

These words were spoken.

The committee members fell into deep thought.

That is, to be responsible, but not to bear full responsibility.

Based on the evidence presented by Xu De, the verdict basically points to this.

"Reduction of sentence?"

Meng Junfeng frowned and asked.

"Only a reduced sentence is possible."

The presiding judge of the civil court spoke.

At the head of the table, several deans were also deep in thought.

From the current perspective, the solution proposed by the other party is indeed the most reasonable and optimal one.

Xu De was unable to provide evidence, but the hospital did not completely refute the claim, arguing that the other party did indeed have a mental illness and needed to bear some responsibility.

However, similarly... because there is no evidence, it cannot be assumed that the plan was completely out of control during its implementation.

As for Liu Guofu's side...

"Well, that depends on Judge Meng personally," the other party replied truthfully.

The point is that Liu Guofu couldn't provide evidence, and Fan He confused self-defense with the signs of rape, so the other side couldn't provide evidence. It all depends on how Meng Junfeng thinks about it.

but..

"Perhaps the two sides have already reached a private settlement."

The presiding judge of the civil court began, "That's not necessarily true."

With the case at this stalemate, a private settlement is the best option for the plaintiff.

only.....

"Raise your hand in agreement."

The dean suddenly spoke:

"Raise your hand if you agree with Judge Liu, the presiding judge of the civil court."

The words were spoken.

Inside the deliberation room, a huge crowd of people with their hands raised appeared before them.

A large area...

Almost everyone agreed with the verdict.

That is to say...

"Since the defendant is unable to provide evidence and has not submitted any other defense information, the trial will proceed with the defendant bearing partial criminal responsibility." Presiding Judge Meng Junfeng took a deep breath.

What is the likely sentence?

Around seven years... Meng Junfeng will get a maximum of seven years.

The other party could also have their sentence reduced; theoretically, they would only need to serve a maximum of three years, or even less in 2003. In summary...

This is the optimal solution to the case.

unless..

"unless."

"The defendant in the case is able to provide new evidence for his defense."

Meng Junfeng's true thoughts were as they truly were.

Whether there will be any new defense evidence in this case... only God knows.

As for when the trial will resume...

"10 days later."

"Ten days later, on April 13th, if there is no new evidence..."

"The court issued its final ruling that day!"

noon.

11:30.

West China Hospital, 7th floor, ICU room 712.

"You idiot, wake up! Wake up! The sun's really high in the sky now!"

In the ward.

Zhang Er sat cross-legged on the bed, looking to one side and tilting her head.

All I saw was...

Xu De squatted beside the folding bed, reached out, pinched Lin Yue's cheeks, and pulled them apart forcefully, deforming her face. His fingertips felt a soft, warm sensation.

The other person's skin was very soft, firm, and smooth, with an exceptionally good feel.

"language.."

Lin Yue frowned, mumbled as she woke up from her sleep, squinted, and stretched out her arms to yawn.

"Ha~"

With the waist extended, an S-shaped curve emerges.

Zhang Er looked down at his chest, then quickly burrowed into the blankets.

It's eleven o'clock.

Xu De took out his phone and gestured to the other person, a look of disgust on his face.

"Whose pig can sleep for so long..."

"Oh, okay, you should go to sleep first."

Lin Yue regained her senses and got up to change shifts, guessing that the other person probably hadn't slept all night.

"No."

"Come back to Green Forest City with me."

Xu De shook his head and spoke.

The topic was so unexpected that Lin Yue, who had just woken up, was slightly taken aback and didn't react immediately. Then, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

She mumbled indistinctly as she washed up:

"Back to Green Forest City?"

"Didn't the case happen in Chengdu? Why go back to Lusen City?" Lin Yue asked, puzzled.

"Check information!"

Xu De decisively stated, "Currently, the case remains unfavorable for us!"

The case doesn't offer a complete advantage; Fan He and Zhou Ning are not to be underestimated.

The other person has very keen senses.

If you try to erase your sentence, the other party will try to take action against you financially.

so..

"We need a law that will not incur criminal liability or require civil compensation!"

Xu De spoke slowly.

Neither criminal nor civil matters should be considered?

Does this law exist in the world?

exist!

In the judiciary, besides the mental illness protection law... don't forget, there's a second one.

"Law on the Protection of Minors"!

Yes.

The Law on the Protection of Minors is a law that exempts minors from both criminal and civil liability.

Lin Yue's mind worked quickly. She suddenly paused, toothbrush in her mouth, turned to look at Xu De, and asked in surprise:

"But what about civil damages..."

"Mistake? No, that's not right."

Suddenly stopped.

Will minors be held responsible? Yes, minors will bear certain responsibilities.

They are responsible for both the criminal and civil aspects, but the responsibility has been transferred to the guardian.

But the problem is...

I guess.

"There's a 90% chance the court won't deny that Zhang Da is mentally ill, but it also definitely won't deny that Zhang Da isn't mentally ill."

"That is, Article 18, Paragraph 3 of the Criminal Law, which stipulates that the responsible party bears partial criminal liability and is cared for as a vulnerable group."

"Partial criminal liability...this part can be offset by juvenile laws!"

Xu De spoke slowly.

If possible, then it's a combination of mental illness and being a minor.

The mentally ill first inflict a heavy blow on the prison sentence, and then the minors finish off the remaining portion that wasn't cut off.

In this way, the two laws can be completely erased from the criminal liability aspect.

As for the civil part...

Theoretically speaking.

"Civil damages have a very high priority."

"Let alone minors, even in cases of legitimate self-defense, the court will award compensation out of humanitarian considerations, let alone in cases of excessive self-defense." "The compensation is basically based on the standard amount."

"Minors also have to bear the responsibility, but they pay less, and the compensation is transferred to their parents, but..." To be honest.

Xu De paused.

He narrowed his eyes and recited the meticulous logical chain he had come up with after thinking about it all night.

"What are parents? From a legal perspective, parents are guardians."

"Zhang Dayou has a guardian!?"

Legally, there are two types of guardians.

The official guardian from the Civil Affairs Bureau is the woman Xu De first met with Yang Huan, the 14-year-old entrusted person, during the 18th case. Generally, only orphans are subject to official guardianship.

If a child commits a crime and is ordered to pay compensation, the compensation will be paid by the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Zhang Da and Zhang Er have guardians.

That is...

Procedural guardian!

"Zhang Da and Zhang Er have guardians. Although they've been out of contact for over a decade, you can't deny that these two do indeed have a guardian." "And this guardianship hasn't been revoked; it still exists!"

Xu De spoke slowly.

That is to say...

"If the person is a minor, then the civil liability will shift from Zhang Da to his guardian!"

The words were spoken.

Lin Yue quickly put a mouthful of water in her mouth, gurgled for a moment, and then spat out the toothpaste foam.

He then looked at Xu De with surprise:

"But the guardian has disappeared."

"The guardian's disappearance does not affect their liability for civil damages!"

Xu De shook his head.

The fact that the other party has disappeared and Liu Guofu cannot find them does not mean that Zhang Da is obligated to pay compensation himself.

Instead, the guardian will still be responsible for compensation, and the law will give Liu Guofu the right to pursue the guardian's liability!

But here's the problem...

"They probably won't find it either!"

Lin Yue suddenly understood, and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes as she watched the other person's eyes twitch.

The guardians have all gone abroad, and Liu Guofu can't find the guardian who owes you money at all!

It doesn't matter if they can't find the person; the court has already made a ruling, and if Liu Guofu doesn't get compensation, that's his own problem.

In summary.

"We have achieved a perfect operating procedure."

Xu De's eyes revealed a calm contemplation as he slowly said:

"Criminal liability can be completely absolved!"

"Even... even if Liu Guofu doesn't receive a single penny!"

Yes.

If the guardian is the Civil Affairs Bureau, the Civil Affairs Bureau will provide money, and Liu Guofu will also receive a large sum of compensation.

However, through the operation of this system...

"They won't get a single penny!"

Xu De looked at Lin Yue and uttered a sentence that, if Zhou Ning were present, the other party would most likely feel a chill down his spine.

He has a level three disability, but it's not a terminal illness like uremia; his organs can still function slowly.

The hospital will not give the other party priority in organ matching.

Without a kidney transplant, the body will gradually become depleted...

Ultimately, even if Liu Guofu is still alive now and has been rescued, he definitely won't live past ten years!

"As long as it can be achieved..."

"Zhou Ning and Fan He's threats are nothing but a wisp of air!"

Xu Dejian said firmly.

Lin Yue was shocked. After thinking it over and over, she realized that what the other person said was indeed true.

The law removes criminal liability, and guardians take away civil compensation.

even..

"We can file a countersuit!"

Xu De spoke again, saying that if before it was a shield, then now... it's a knife hidden in his sleeve.

"Zhang Er was seriously injured and fell into a coma by the other party. He demands substantial compensation and that they be held criminally liable!"

They assume no responsibility whatsoever.

But the other party has to bear double responsibility. Not to mention Zhou Ning and Fan He, even if the top lawyers from Yanjing and Haicheng came, they would be helpless against this combination of tactics!

However...

"Underage?"

Lin Yue paused, thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"But Zhang Da is not a minor; his age in the legal proceedings indicates he is an adult."

Almost the very next second after the words were spoken.

Xu De immediately said, "Therefore, we need to go back to Green Forest City!"

His tone left no room for argument.

"Lusen City is where the two of them have lived for a long time. Staying in Chengdu, we can't possibly prove this, and to win the case..." "We have no choice but to go back to Lusen City to investigate!"

If possible, we might be able to find clues...

The program he created was an incredibly sophisticated cannibalistic machine capable of chewing up and swallowing people!

And minors... are the most important and most intricate cog in this machine.

"Are you going or not?" Xu De asked in return.

Lin Yue didn't hesitate and subconsciously said:

"go."

"Okay, then don't hesitate."

Xu De nodded.

Time is life, and he didn't waste it. He turned to Zhang Er and gave him some instructions.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Bing and Qian Hao were transferred to take care of Zhang Er.

It wasn't until noon that they headed towards the airport.

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

As a plane takes off from the airport.

The outcome of this case has once again become a mystery.

Perhaps, a complete victory can be achieved, completely crushing Liu Guofu's fate by leaving him with no way out of his own misdeeds.

That's also possible...

The victim was forced to accept forgiveness!

And all this.

The plane arrived on April 4th.

At 1:20 PM, it landed in Green Forest City and gradually began to move forward.

4 month 4 day.

1:20 PM.

The plane landed at Qiyang Airport in Lvsen City.

"Sizzle!"

The plane door opened, and Xu De and Lin Yue stepped out. Looking at the familiar buildings outside and the hazy sky, they both exhaled a breath of stale air.

"This familiar weather, polluted by heavy industry..."

Behind them, a passenger noticed the gray sky and sighed.

Xu Delin ignored the passersby.

The two traveled light, carrying only a handbag and no luggage.

At this moment, he quickly walked towards the airport exit.

Not long after.

A familiar voice appeared beside my ear.

"Here, here!"

"I'm here!!!"

The main entrance of the airport.

A voice rang out from the side, drawing the attention of those around.

Xu Delin turned his head to look.

Then, Wang Chao, who had been waiting at the entrance, was seen standing around the crowd, waving his hands and talking.

"Brother Xu, I'm here!" Wang Chao greeted him with a big smile.

Xu De paused, then turned around and led his men quickly toward that spot.

The two sides had just approached each other.

Wang Chao was about to say something, but Xu De immediately interrupted him.

Xu De then spoke:

"Have you checked everything I asked you to check yesterday?"
