The next day!
On the day of the court hearing.
After a night of fermentation, the incident at the Second Hospital yesterday has spread.
At Wu Xueqin's urging, major media outlets rushed to report on it.
Lin Yu, an unknown nobody, was thrust into the eye of the storm of public opinion.
His identity was immediately exposed.
A son-in-law who married into the family actually did such a beastly thing to a little girl; it's utterly despicable!
Media reporters flocked to the courtroom early in the morning!
At the same time, another piece of news broke.
This court hearing was personally presided over by Lu Yongcheng, the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Army!
In the past, only in cases of earth-shattering crimes would a high-ranking figure like Lu Yongcheng preside over the trial.
It seems that this case has already had a very negative impact on society!
9:30 a.m.
The courtroom officially opened, and media reporters, people from all walks of life, and the jury flocked into the government building.
At that moment, an Audi also arrived at the parking lot outside the building.
"Xueqing, we're here. Shall we go?" Su Yingxue unbuckled her seatbelt and said to Lu Xueqing in the passenger seat.
At this moment, Lu Xueqing's expression was still somewhat dazed.
"Xueqing?"
"I... I think I'd better not go!" Lu Xueqing bit her lip, her expression somewhat timid.
She's scared!
If Lin Yu is convicted and becomes a rapist, she really doesn't know how she will face it!
Su Yingxue quickly grasped her hand, "Xueqing, you must believe that the law is just! The presiding judge will definitely clear Lin Yu's name!"
"Lin Yu must be feeling helpless right now; we can't let him face this alone!"
Encouraged by Su Yingxue, Lu Xueqing finally mustered her courage. After getting out of the car, the two walked hand in hand toward the courtroom.
The courtroom.
By this time, quite a few people were already seated in the hall.
Media reporters have already set up positions in various locations to broadcast live from the scene.
On the left is the plaintiff's family section.
On the right is the defendant's family section.
However, at this moment, the seats on the right were empty.
When Lu Xueqing and Su Yingxue arrived, they felt extremely awkward, but they still forced themselves to find seats and sit down.
People cast strange glances at them, pointing and whispering.
"Are these the rapist's family members?"
"She's quite pretty!"
"If someone can do something like this, what kind of good people can their family members be?"
The crowd whispered among themselves, spitting in disgust.
Hearing this, Lu Xueqing felt her face burning and clenched her fists tightly. Su Yingxue gently patted her hand to encourage her.
"The trial hasn't even started yet, who dares to gossip!"
Just then, a shout rang out.
Several tall, imposing men, each carrying a star on their shoulder, walked in one after another from outside the door.
They all walked toward the defendant's family members' section!
The leader, with a rugged face, was none other than Feng Shiyi, one of the Four Heavenly Kings!
"The Four Heavenly Kings?"
Why are they here?
"Is the defendant connected to them?"
Everyone fell silent, too terrified to utter a sound!
Feng Shiyi snorted and led the group to the seats on the right, where he sat down casually.
Now, Lu Xueqing and Su Yingxue are no longer alone.
"Xueqing, are these generals Lin Yu's friends?" Su Yingxue asked in a low voice with a curious expression.
Lu Xueqing looked blank and shook her head.
Su Yingxue said, "Even these four generals support Lin Yu, he will definitely be alright!"
Lu Xueqing nodded, feeling much more at ease.
"quiet!"
Just then, a voice came from the hall.
The courtroom passageway opened, and presiding judge Lu Yongcheng, along with a man with striking eyebrows, entered the courtroom with several assistant judges.
"Everyone rise! Now, General Lu, the presiding judge of this court, will deliver a speech!"
The clerk said something.
At this moment, Lu Yongcheng stepped forward and calmly said into the microphone, "Hello everyone, I am Lu Yongcheng, the presiding judge of this court!"
"I'm sure everyone has heard about this case; it has had an extremely negative impact! I've been entrusted by the Commander-in-Chief to preside over this case today!"
"Before the trial begins, I would like to introduce an important member of the hearing. This man next to me is Lin Chuang, the young marshal!"
Wow!
The crowd erupted in uproar!
"So this is the young marshal!"
"Truly a handsome and talented man, a dragon among men!"
brush!
All the cameras immediately focused on Lin Chuang, giving him a close-up!
Recently, the young marshal has left behind many legends in both military and business circles.
Lin Chuang, without any hesitation, waved to the camera and said calmly, "I am also deeply saddened by this case. I am here today to ensure that the perpetrators do not escape justice! Today, I represent the stance of the Governor's Office!"
"Young Marshal, you are mighty!"
"You are a great role model for us!"
"It is a blessing for Fengfu that the young marshal cares so much about us common people!"
Hearing these praises, Lin Chuang couldn't stop smiling, feeling extremely pleased.
"Hehe, you little bastard, I should thank you. You've earned me quite a good reputation!"
Meanwhile, in the lower seat, Lu Xueqing's beautiful eyes trembled incessantly. Seeing the young marshal again filled her with extremely complex emotions.
Su Yingxue, standing beside her, frowned. "So this is the young marshal?"
"Even if he's the young marshal, he can't talk like that! The trial results haven't come out yet, how can he be so sure that Lin Yu is the criminal!" Su Yingxue said indignantly.
