Chapter 743: Luck is a bit bad
When we arrived at the court, there were still more than ten minutes before the session ended, but the gallery was almost full of young people, with only a few empty seats in the corner. Do young people in T City like watching people suing so much?
After Xiaoyan and I sat down, a boy next to me asked me with a simple smile: "Classmate, which school are you from? Not our Nanjing University, right?"
I smiled at him and said, "I'm from University A." He adjusted his glasses and said in surprise, "So you're from University A! No wonder you're so studious and even came all the way from City A to audit the class."
He turned around and said to his classmates, "Qiangzi, luckily I got lucky and won a spot. Look, there are people who came all the way from University A to audit the class."
"Is this girl from A University? You should have a lot of opportunities to audit classes in the law department of A University, right?" The boy named Qiangzi looked at me with some envy, as if I had gotten a great bargain.
Before I could answer, a boy's voice rang out from behind me, "I've seen this girl before."
The others began to laugh and tease, "Hey, Chen Bin, when you see a pretty girl, do you feel like you've seen them all before?"
The boy named Chen Bin blushed and said anxiously, "Don't interrupt me, I'm telling the truth. Last time she sat in front of me, I remember asking the old lady what she meant by the traffic light. The girl told me that the old lady meant the lights and wine.
This student has a really strong ability to understand things!"
Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered it, but I really have no impression of it from looking at its face.
Out of courtesy, I smiled at him politely and said, "Yes, I remember now. That's what happened."
Chen Bin immediately became proud, "I said I wouldn't mistake you for someone. Classmate, are you two the only ones from the Law Department of University A?"
I laughed dryly and said, "Haha, I'm not from the law department, I'm from the fashion department."
Not only Chen Bin, but also several other boys around me looked at me in surprise. "Even the clothing department came to audit the criminal case. Is interdisciplinary study so popular now?"
I smiled awkwardly and said, "The victim in the case is my mother. That's why I came here to listen."
"Oh~" Chen Bin suddenly realized, "Auntie, is she okay?"
The boy next to him answered quickly: "It must be fine. Didn't the teacher say that this is a case of intentional injury, not murder?"
"Yeah, it's very difficult to attend a major case nowadays," another boy said.
What do you mean? Are you still complaining about my mom's misdeeds? My face darkened.
Chen Bin seemed to remember something and asked me, "Classmate, why did you come to audit the class last time?"
I deadpanned, "The last victim was my cousin."
"...This, this is so unfortunate. Your family fortune and luck are a bit bad." Chen Bin scratched his head and tried hard to organize words to comfort me.
It can be seen that these boys are quite kind, and there is obvious sympathy in their clear eyes.
"Classmate, why don't you go to Yonghe Palace to get a peace amulet after you return to City A? I heard it's very effective." A boy suggested.
I:"……"
Is it popular among young people of this generation to use metaphysics to solve problems?
Compared with them, I am still a staunch materialist.
I smiled perfunctorily and said, "That's a good idea, thank you." Then I was about to turn back.
At this moment, a boy suddenly said: "Wow, don't you think this classmate is awesome?
Both of her family's cases were ordinary criminal cases, without difficulty, doubts or disputes, yet they both hired Lawyer He. What kind of family is this?
The other boys were stunned for a moment, then immediately realized, "That's right, Lawyer He doesn't take on many cases a year, and her family has two cases in a row. He's a relative of yours, right? What's your name, classmate?"
"Can I add you on WeChat? Can you tell me the next time your family has a lawsuit? The opportunity to sit in on Lawyer He's trial is so rare, we have to draw lots." Someone has already shown me a QR code.
Only then did I realize that these students were here for Lawyer He. I was wondering why I met them at both court hearings.
I quickly waved my hands, "No, no, no, I'm not a relative of Lawyer He, we're just a client.
This time when I return to City A, I will go and get a peace amulet. My family will probably not have to fight this kind of lawsuit in the future, really."
I answered very sincerely and rejected all QR codes.
Chen Bin was a little disappointed and wanted to say something, but then we realized that the court door had been closed at some point and the trial rules began to play on the screen.
The clerk first read out the court rules, and then the judge announced the court session. The prosecutor read out the indictment, charging Deng Sisi with intentional injury and Deng Xinrong with abetting the crime.
"Please ask the bailiff to bring the defendants Deng Sisi and Deng Xinrong to the court." said the judge.
Two bailiffs escorted Deng Sisi and Deng Xinrong into the courtroom.
Deng Sisi lowered her head and looked pale when she entered, but she quickly raised her head and first looked at the plaintiff's seat, where only Lawyer He and his assistant were sitting.
Then she turned and looked into the gallery, obviously looking for someone.
I knew she wanted to see if my mother was coming. She must have thought that my mother wouldn't have the heart to let her go to jail. Maybe she even thought that if she cried and acted pitifully, my mother would let her go.
Deng Xinrong looked depressed and nervous. He kept rubbing his hands and looking around.
"Defendant Deng Sisi, what is your opinion on the facts and charges alleged by the prosecutor?" asked the judge.
Deng Sisi raised her head, her voice as pitiful as ever: "I...I admit that I stabbed my aunt. I regret it very much, but I was too impulsive at the time. I really didn't mean to do it. I didn't mean to hurt my aunt. I love her..."
She wanted to continue her emotional outburst but was interrupted by the judge, "Defendant Deng Xinrong, what is your opinion on the facts and charges alleged in the indictment?" The judge turned to Deng Xinrong.
"I am innocent! I did not instigate Sisi at all. She is my daughter. How could I let her hurt others? And that person is her aunt. Her aunt and I are classmates. We have known each other since childhood and we have always had a good relationship. How could I want to hurt her?" Deng Xinrong said excitedly.
