Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

Chapter 247 Court Opening! A fierce kick to the cripple's good leg!

In an instant.

Their gazes met in the air, as if sparks were flying.

The lawyer, Yan Mi, was dressed in formal attire. He sat at his seat, his expression serious, staring intently at Xu De.

Xu De glanced at him, then looked away and walked towards the agent's seat.

As soon as she sat down, Lin Yue whispered, "Yan Mi hasn't done a paternity test yet."

Xu De nodded but didn't say anything.

Shortly afterward, several prosecutors arrived at the trial area.

Prosecutors Zhao Qian and Yue Feng rushed over and immediately took their seats. After noticing the strange atmosphere, they remained silent and simply scrutinized both sides.

The scene was completely silent.

On the contrary, those in the audience were showing a hint of surprise on their faces.

"Why do I feel...this is so strange?"

"Me too. Although he didn't say a word, his eyes and his subtle movements... Is there a conflict between the defendant and his representative?"

"Don't even think about it. The two of you are inherently opposites, so there's bound to be conflict. You're so close to each other that you wish the other would just disappear."

"Let's talk about the case first."

"Tsk, this case, being killed for refusing to lend money... Sigh, the world is truly cold and heartless."

"6

'

In the audience.

As they talked, a sigh appeared on their faces, and several reporters shook their heads as they looked at the agents' seats.

The case of Kiyama caused a sensation in Hai Van province after it was announced by the court.

The reason is nothing more than the case's illogical and counterintuitive nature... it has completely shattered humanity's moral compass!

According to the police report.

The defendant, Zhu Dali, demanded money from Zhang Mushan, a person with congenital intellectual disability, commonly known as "mentally disabled."

Yes, it was asking for, not borrowing.

According to his coworkers, not a single penny of the money lent to Zhu Dali has been returned!

So.

This is not borrowing, but demanding money from Zhang Mushan, a mentally disabled person!

When the other party refused to give it to him, Zhu Dali ambushed and killed him on his way home.

The police announcement was issued.

The public was in an uproar; no one expected such a beast to exist!

As a result, reporters from major news outlets and newspapers began to follow up and report on the incident, and the entire First Courtroom, with its hundreds of seats, was almost filled!

"What a pity, what a pity for the victims. Even serious injury is better than death..."

"6

"I've seen the family members. I went to the hospital earlier, but they were not in a good mental state and were unable to be interviewed."

'

Shh~ The judge is coming!

66

'

Everyone fell silent and turned their attention to one side of the trial area.

That was the main entrance to the trial area, and at that moment, a tiny crack appeared. Then, the crack grew larger and larger until several figures appeared!

"Squeak~"

Three figures appeared there.

Everyone stared intently, their faces showing surprise.

Agent's seat.

Lawyer Li Jian was slightly startled and said in a low voice, "The vice president of the Yanzhou Intermediate People's Court!"

"And two more presiding judges from the criminal courts!?"

That's right.

In this case... the presiding judge was not a senior judge, nor was he simply the head of the criminal court; rather, it was Yang Jianjun, the vice president of the intermediate court!

Yang Jianjun is 61 years old, somewhat thin, and 1.75 meters tall. His judge's robe looks like a blanket covering his body, and he can't even fill out the clothes.

But his overall energy and spirit were extremely sharp.

Although his face was aged, his eyes were sharp like an eagle's, and the wrinkles on his face added an invisible sense of pressure.

He slowly raised his leg and walked towards the judge's bench.

Before long, he was sitting on the judge's bench.

He scanned the scene, his face expressionless. Although he did not restore order, there was no noisy conversation.

Yang Jianjun picked up the gavel from the table with his withered hand and brought it down directly.

"Bang!"

"The prosecutor, the defendant's seat, and the attorney."

Are all three parties ready?

That's...that efficient!?

Lawyer Wu Xin was slightly startled, not expecting the other party to immediately jump into the court proceedings after entering.

"We don't need to make any further preparations," Yan Mi said.

The prosecutor nodded: "Ready."

"We have no objection," Lin Yue nodded and said.

There were no objections from any of the three parties.

See here.

Without hesitation, Yang Jianjun said directly, "Bring the defendant, Zhu Dali, to court!"

The words were spoken.

Two bailiffs opened the door and walked out.

Not long after, a thin figure wearing a conspicuous uniform, with his hands cuffed and his head down, walked into the trial area, accompanied by two bailiffs.

This is...

Zhu Dali!

At this moment, Zhu Dali looked somewhat haggard, but if you looked closely... you could see the gloom hidden beneath!

The other person's eyes still showed some bloodshot veins. He lowered his head and glanced around at everything out of the corner of his eye. His eyes were... very fierce!

Compared to the first time they met.

It's obvious that the other person has suffered a double blow to their mental and emotional well-being, and their overall mental state is very poor.

It's like...

Lin Yue's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly said, "Zhu Dali has a problem. His true mental state is definitely not what it seems on the surface."

Xu De, who was beside him, nodded and turned his gaze to the defendant's seat.

Across from him, Yan Mi looked at Zhu Dali with a slightly somber expression and a solemn look in his eyes.

"It's obvious," Xu De replied softly.

The words were spoken.

He then stopped speaking.

And at this moment, on the judge's bench.

Vice President Yang Jianjun took a deep breath, and his withered body swelled up slightly.

next second.

A voice filled with profound authority echoed throughout the First Courtroom, reaching the ears of hundreds of people!

"This case was prosecuted by the Chongzhou Municipal People's Procuratorate, which accused the defendant Zhu Dali of 'intentional injury,' 'intentional homicide,' and 'robbery,' resulting in the death of the victim Zhang Mushan. The case was brought before this court in 2003."

"In accordance with relevant regulations, the case will be heard by the First Criminal Trial Division of the Yanzhou Intermediate People's Court."

"This case is presided over by Judge Yang Jianjun."

'

"Now, it is announced that in this case..."

'

talking.

Yang Jianjun paused, looked around, and raised the gavel in his hand.

"Bang!"

The sound of the hammer rang out, and as it fell, two words echoed in everyone's ears.

"Court is in session!"

In an instant.

The sound, carrying an unparalleled momentum, swept outwards, causing everyone present to tense up and narrow their eyes.

dock.

Lawyer Zhou Ning unconsciously clenched his fists, his palms sweating slightly, his throat bobbing as he felt nervous.

Take a deep breath and prepare for battle.

The court session has begun!

Yang Jianjun remained swift and decisive, giving no one time to react. His sharp eyes swept across the air and instantly fixed on the prosecutor.

"Now."

"Prosecutor, please read the indictment!"

The words were spoken.

Beside Xu De, in the prosecutor's seat.

The third prosecutor, Prosecutor Pei, stood up, holding a complaint in his hand, and slowly read it aloud.

"Your Honor, Judges."

"Regarding this case."

"The defendant, Zhu Dali, male, 34 years old, born in..."

'

He was arrested by the police on May 7, 2003.

"This court has ascertained that on May 7, 2003, the day of the incident, the defendant Zhu Dali, while working with a construction team from Hongyang Civil Engineering Construction Co., Ltd. on the construction site of the Sixth People's Hospital, had a conflict with the victim, which subsequently led to the death of the victim, Zhang Mushan."

"According to the investigation."

"At 1:30 pm on a rest day, the defendant Zhu Dali noticed that the victim was asking for an advance on his salary. Zhu Dali approached the victim to borrow money, but the victim refused, and a fierce conflict broke out between the two parties."

1

"During the conflict, Zhu Dali assaulted Zhang Mushan to some extent."

'

"6

""

It is clear.

This passage describes the injuries sustained by Zhang Mushan at two different times.

In other words, the injuries sustained during the debt collection incident and the injuries sustained at the time of his death were two separate incidents. The prosecution described the former as the injury that Zhu Dali endured alone.

There were no eyewitnesses at the scene of the crime, no surveillance footage, and the scene was located on a construction site. No traces of the fight were left at the scene.

Since Zhu Dali confessed to the crime, the police pinned the blame on him.

In conclusion.

"The defendant, Zhu Dali, has clearly violated Article 234 of the Criminal Law, the crime of 'intentional injury'!"

Prosecutor Pei hadn't finished speaking.

He continued reading: "After committing the crime, the defendant Zhu Dali did not stop there."

"That afternoon, we ambushed and killed the victim on his usual route home!"

"The above clearly constitutes intentional homicide under Article 232 of the Criminal Law!"

"At the same time, all the money on Zhang Mushan's person had disappeared, and the defendant's subjective motive for the assault was robbery."

"This constitutes robbery under Article 263 of the Criminal Law!"

Three key pieces of evidence.

Robbery, intentional injury, intentional homicide.

If it is a single act, then generally only intentional homicide and intentional injury will be classified as intentional homicide.

But it's obvious.

The prosecutors in Chongzhou City divided the case into two parts from the perspective of "robbery," so both crimes were committed simultaneously, and they are now preparing to impose concurrent sentences for multiple offenses!

The words were spoken.

A murmur of discussion arose in the courtroom.

"Wow, assault and murder, plus robbery... Do the prosecutors have a grudge against the defendant? All the charges are being brought up from the strictest angles..."

'

"It's better to be strict, very strict. Let this executioner go in... or even sentence him to death!"

"I won't say whether he'll face the death penalty, since he surrendered himself to the authorities and has shown good behavior."

""

"Heh, there are plenty of examples of people who surrendered themselves and were still sentenced to death. If you ask me, they should just be sentenced to death outright!"

"6

'

A series of voices came from the audience.

However, this did not affect the progress of the trial.

The defendant's seat.

At that moment, Zhu Dali heard the indictment being read aloud. His whole body tensed up, his head was lowered, his breathing became more and more rapid, and his chest heaved violently.

"Sizzle!"

The iron chains binding his hands were now taut, and his arm muscles were tense.

The prosecutor's stand.

"I have finished reading." Prosecutor Pei took his seat.

On the judge's bench.

Vice President Yang Jianjun nodded expressionlessly, then paused, his gaze falling on the agent's seat, his brows furrowing slightly.

As his gaze shifted.

The prosecutors paused for a moment, mentally anticipating the various actions their teammate might take.

only...

After pondering for a long time, Yang Jianjun first turned his gaze to the defendant's dock. He looked at Yan Su and suddenly spoke: "Defendant, facing the aforementioned charges brought by the prosecution..."

"Do you have any objections to the charges you wish to raise?"

objection..

There can be no objection!

In the dock.

Looking at Yan Mi beside him, Zhou Ning's thoughts began to race.

The goal was to get Zhu Dali to confess... For a terminally ill patient, there is no difference between the death penalty and a suspended death sentence.

Therefore, any attempt to reduce culpability in the defense becomes unnecessary, leaving only... a guilty plea!

Zhou Ning felt a little uneasy and looked at Zhu Dali in the center of the trial area.

But Zhu Dali's spirit... couldn't withstand the pressure of confessing.

Court adjourned?

The other party cannot adjourn the court!

This creates a distorted, contradictory, and conflicting picture!

This case cannot be adjourned for an extended period, nor can a verdict be announced...

"Your Honor, our side..."

""

All I saw was...

In the defendant's dock, lawyer Yan Miwei spoke slightly, paused, remained silent for a moment, then his eyes narrowed, and said, "Regarding the prosecution's allegation of robbery under Article 263 of the Criminal Law, as cited in the indictment, we have objections!"

talking.

Yan Mi paused for a moment, then said, "First of all, our defendant never had the intention of 'robbery' from beginning to end."

.

"It's 'borrowing'!"

"The defendant, Zhu Dali, has had a habit of borrowing money since December 2001, but has never forcibly taken money away from him."

"On the day of the incident, after the two parties had a conflict at 1 p.m., the defendant Zhu Dali did not forcibly take the money."

"That afternoon, after the victim Zhang Mushan died."

"The reason why the defendant Zhu Dali committed the act was due to emotions arising from a conflict, rather than with the intention of robbery."

'

This is...

Want to reduce the criminal law?

Zhou Ning looked at Yan Mi beside him, thought for a moment, and instantly understood.

By using the tactic of "reducing" the defense, they aimed to appease Zhu Dali during the trial, thus preventing him from becoming overly emotional.

He was quick-witted and meticulous, clearly risking a possible court recess, but he managed to appease Zhu Dali!

Unfortunately...

"Objection, Your Honor! We have a clear objection to this case!"

In a daze.

Almost immediately after the defendant finished expressing their opinion, a voice suddenly came from the attorney's seat.

This is..

Everyone paused for a moment, then subconsciously turned their gaze to Xu De.

Is this... disrupting the court proceedings?

The prosecutors Zhao Qian and Yue Feng beside him paused, their faces showing surprise.

Although I know the other party is audacious, but... the vice president is the presiding judge, and the case has only just begun. Why are you interrupting them?!

Why?

Of course...

That powerful kick was amazing!

Agent's seat.

Xu De looked at the judge's bench, where Yang Jianjun was frowning and very dissatisfied. Ignoring the other party's emotions, he said, "Your Honor, regarding this case, our side does not agree with what the defendant said."

"The facts of the case are clear, the process is transparent, and the defendant, Zhu Dali," clearly committed robbery."

Article 263, Paragraph 2 of the Criminal Law, explicitly states: "Robbery while carrying a weapon" is punishable as robbery.

During the incident.

Zhu Dali killed Zhang Mushan directly, and then the money on Zhang Mushan's body disappeared.

It fully meets the requirements of Article 263, Paragraph 2, and clearly constitutes the crime of robbery.

Xu De didn't believe that a lawyer of Yan Mi's caliber wouldn't know.

If he knew all along, and still said that, then the only explanation is...

"Just a show!"

Yes, it's all just a show.

Who's this show for? Zhu Dali!

Since the opposing side could neither adjourn the court nor rashly pronounce a verdict, Yan Mi could only first calm Zhu Dali down and then quickly pass a verdict.

That's how it is.

There's an old saying that goes something like this.

The more the enemy wants to do something, the more we should prevent them from succeeding.

The more the enemy doesn't want something to happen, the more we'll make it happen.

Of course, Xu De preferred to describe it in another sentence.

That is to say...

That powerful leg that kicked the tumor!

What? The other party might object? If they object a few times, the judge will simply adjourn the court.

Is it really that strict?!

and so.

Xu De looked at the judge's bench, ignoring all external pressure, and said, "In conclusion... our side believes that the defendant, Zhu Dali..."

"They should bear full responsibility for the case!"

The moment the words were spoken.

In the defendant's dock.

For some reason, Zhu Dali was clearly suffering from a terminal illness and had no way to retreat.

But upon hearing the words about accountability, he still felt a tightness in his chest, his hands clenched tightly, and his whole body tensed up.

"Phew~"

His mind was in a state of extreme confusion, his face was terribly gloomy, and his breathing became increasingly heavy and rapid.
