Chapter 1874: Chapter 1874 Visual Impact (1)(first, monthly pa.s.s requested)
The judge cleared his throat and announced, “The case of the imperial capital Intermediate People’s Procuratorate against Qin Yaoguang for the murder of Qin Suwen has officially begun. The defendant, Qin Yaoguang, is hereby summoned to the Court.”
The doors of the court opened on both sides, and two female bailiffs escorted Qin Yaoguang in.
She expressionlessly walked to the dock and sat down.
It was obvious that she had put in a lot of effort today. She was dressed in an appropriate cigarette-gray custom-made professional dress, and her hair was cut short and thin. It stuck to her scalp, making her look very capable.
The makeup on her face was very light, but it perfectly accentuated her delicate features, especially her sharp lips.
Anyone who saw her in the courtroom and looked at Gu Nianzhi knew that they were definitely biological mother and daughter.
The judge looked at her and then looked at the doc.u.ments in his hands, he said, “The defendant, Qin Yaoguang, was born on the X day of the X month in the year x.x.xX. She was born in G City, and has a doctorate degree in education. She is a professional brain surgeon, a biomedical specialist, and the president of the Qin family’s private hospital group.”
“The lawyer representing the lawsuit is Lu Anpeng, a partner from the Jin family’s law firm. May I ask if this is true?”
Qin yaoguang nodded and said faintly, “It’s true.”
Lu Anpeng, Qin Yaoguang’s lawyer, who was the lead lawyer of the legal team that Old Master Qin had hired for her, stood up and nodded. “It’s true.”
The judge knocked on his gavel and asked, “Has the defendant ever been punished by the law? If so, please state the reason and type of punishment.”
The defendant’s lawyer, Lu anpeng, said calmly, “Your honor, my client does still have two lawsuits pending, but those two lawsuits are highly suspicious and have not been concluded yet. Therefore, my client has not been punished by the law for the time being.”
Gu Nianzhi quickly entered the courtroom, she immediately said, “Objection.”. Your honor, the other party only needs to answer yes or no to your question. “Counsel for the defendant, please do not exaggerate matters that have nothing to do with this case. Please do not waste everyone’s time and divert everyone’s attention.”
Lu Anpeng’s gaze was focused as he quickly glanced at Gu Nianzhi. He thought to himself, “This female lawyer is so young, but she reacted very quickly.”.
What he had said just now was that lawyers would usually play to the side in court. But knowing that was one thing, being able to react in time and not let everyone be led was another.
Gu Nianzhi was able to cut him off in time. She was indeed very experienced at this point in time.
The judge nodded. “I agree with the prosecution’s lawyer. The defendant’s lawyer, please watch your words. There’s no need to mention cases that have nothing to do with this case.”
Lu Anpeng smiled and nodded. “Yes, your honor. We will take note.”
After confirming the ident.i.ties of the defendant and the defendant’s lawyer, the judge began to announce the cause of the case. He also announced the names of the clerks, prosecutors, and defenders of both sides.
After everyone had made it clear that there were no objections, the case entered the trial stage.
After the trial began, the prosecutor’s side of the Procuratorate would first state their pleas and their factual basis.
“Based on the results of the police investigation and the evidence presented by the victim’s family, our Court has charged Qin Yaoguang with the murder of Qin Suwen according to the law.”
After the prosecutor finished speaking, he raised his hand to Gu Nianzhi. “Now, the great lawyer Gu Nianzhi hired by our court will represent our court in the case.”
Gu Nianzhi stood up and bowed in the direction of the courtroom. “Your Honor, ladies and gentlemen, the reporters in the courtroom, friends and relatives, and the public, h.e.l.lo.”
“I am Gu Nianzhi, the barrister hired by the prosecution for this case. Today, I would like to present to you a murder case that has lasted for more than ten years. The inside story is extremely dark, to the extent that it is shocking.”
Lu Anpeng, the lead lawyer for the defendant, pursed his lips.
He had been secretly praising Gu Nianzhi for her young and promising youth, but now he retracted his previous thoughts.
What was with this storyteller-like tone!
Lu Anpeng immediately raised his hand and said, “Objection, the prosecution lawyer should state the facts of the case, and not exaggerate them.”
Gu Nianzhi’s face turned serious. “Defense lawyer, I’m just stating the facts of the case. Don’t you know that there are many things in life that are more melodramatic and dark than novels?”
“Novels need to be about logic and cause and effect. In reality, many cases can only be summed up in the words ‘unbelievable."”
Lu Anpeng nodded. “I don’t deny that some real cases are indeed bizarre and tortuous. However, no matter how bizarre a case is, it has its inherent logic. Please don’t deviate from the law.”
Gu Nianzhi secretly gave Lu Anpeng a thumbs up in her heart.
This was probably the most reliable opponent she had ever encountered in her two careers.
Unfortunately, this case could not be fought with conventional methods.
Gu Nianzhi could already tell that Lu Anpeng was used to the standard procedure of court debates.
She did not know if Lu Anpeng would be able to respond to Gu Nianzhi’s next move and adapt accordingly.
Gu Nianzhi was still looking forward to competing with an evenly matched opponent.
She smiled. “Okay, I’ll accept the defense lawyer’s suggestion. I Won’t use rhetorical language to describe the case. I’ll use an intuitive method to show everyone the case.”
As she spoke, Gu Nianzhi made a hand gesture to the technical staff of the court.
The technical staff understood and gradually dimmed the lights in the court. A square white projection screen descended from the roof.
The white projection screen was about the size of an outdoor movie from the last century.
Gu Nianzhi connected her laptop to the projector in the courtroom and began to play the presentation of her case.
The first thing that appeared on the projection screen was an old photo.
The photo showed a simple and low-key study room.
There weren’t many fancy decorations in the study room. The most prominent spot was a particularly large mahogany desk.
Under the desk, a little girl holding a doll timidly poked her head out from under the desk and looked at the camera vigilantly.
The little girl was a little chubby. Her big eyes were like purple jade grapes. They were dark and purple, but they were moist. She was extremely agile.
This little girl was Gu Nianzhi, who had just arrived at the he family when she was six years old.
Not only did the people in the courtroom see this photo, but the people watching the live broadcast of the trial all over the world had also seen it.
For a moment, the social media in China and abroad were in an uproar.
On the search engine, the search engine was searching for the name of the little girl in the case of Qin Yaoguang’s murder of Qin Suwen? The t.i.tle of the hashtag was growing exponentially.
The whole world was asking who this little girl with a pair of bright and big eyes, but a timid expression that made people’s hearts break, was.
Gu Nianzhi seemed to be stunned as well, as if she had forgotten to speak for a moment.
It wasn’t until the opposing lawyer, Lu Anpeng, felt that something was wrong and immediately asked, “Counselor, what’s wrong with this photo?”
Gu nianzhi replied with an “OH”and hurriedly changed the photo, she said apologetically, “I’m sorry, I misplaced the photo.”. The photo did show Qin Suwen’s study, but it was taken two years before she died. The little girl in the photo was me. I was six years old at the time. My father, Gu Xiangwen, had just taken me away from Qin Yaoguang and sent me to the He family. Qin Suwen had personally raised me.”
“What? That little girl is actually Gu Nianzhi, the lawyer? !”
The people inside and outside the court were even more excited.
Just this photo reminded everyone of the kidnapping case that Gu Nianzhi had sued Qin Yaoguang in the past.
In that case, Gu Nianzhi had personally proven that Qin Yaoguang had ordered someone to violently kidnap the 12-year-old gu nianzhi out of the he family.
In that case, although the fact that Qin Yaoguang had kidnapped her was true, her motive was a mystery. She had not said anything, and Gu Nianzhi had not exposed her.
But at that moment.., gu Nianzhi suddenly said,”… When I was six years old, my father, Gu Xiangwen, took me away from Qin Yaoguang. He found out that I had started to become autistic following Qin Yaoguang. I was afraid of light, people, and voices. I never communicated with anyone and never spoke. My favorite places were under the table, behind the curtains, and everywhere I could hide.”
“I don’t remember why I had this tendency, but later on, the psychiatrist said that I was cruelly abused as a child, which was why I had this tendency to become autistic to protect myself.”
When she mentioned that she had been abused when she was by Qin Yaoguang’s side as a child, and that her biological father had taken her away from Qin yaoguang, her “Biological mother,”and sent her to the He family, which had nothing to do with her.., it was obvious that she had been taught by Qin Suwen himself.
Without needing her to say anything more, the netizens, who were full of imagination, had already played out the truth to the best of their ability.
One by one, the related posts were trending.
“A tiger does not eat its own child. Qin Yaoguang is even more poisonous than an animal!”
“Blue planet is too scary! How can there be such a cruel mother? !”
“If my child is being abused like this, I promise to beat her to death!”
The audience watching the live broadcast of the trial around the world was instantly enraged by Qin Yaoguang. They began to criticize her verbally, directly implying that she could even abuse her own daughter to the point of being inhuman, it would be so easy to kill another person..
Lu Anpeng was almost led astray by Gu Nianzhi. He was stunned for a moment before he quickly stood up and said loudly, “Objection! The prosecution’s lawyer’s words have nothing to do with this case. They are suspected of deliberately tarnis.h.i.+ng my client’s reputation and morals.”
“My client has practiced medicine for decades and has countless living people. These are tangible evidence that the prosecution’s lawyer can not overturn with just a photo and a few sensational words.”
Lu Anpeng’s words finally brought back the public opinion that was almost biased by Gu Nianzhi on the Internet.
After all, Qin Yaoguang and the Qin hospital had indeed saved a lot of people over the years. These people were still emotionally biased towards Qin Yaoguang and the Qin private hospital.
As soon as they saw Lu Anpeng’s words, they immediately followed suit and posted in support of Qin Yaoguang.
For a time, the internet was divided into two factions.
One faction had already impulsively convicted Qin yaoguang, while the other faction was calmer. They believed that the current evidence was not enough to determine Qin Yaoguang’s guilt, and Gu Nianzhi’s exposure of what had happened to her when she was a child was even more sympathetic.
But this statement angered even more ordinary onlookers.
They generally did not speak, and were the silent majority.
But they also had a reverse scale, and this reverse scale was the child.
If someone said something bad about the child, the majority of the Silent Ones would definitely not remain silent.
The number of retweets on this topic on Weibo skyrocketed, and the comments also skyrocketed.
“If the great lawyer Gu Nianzhi didn’t lie, then why couldn’t she tell the truth about what happened to her when she was young?”
“To gain sympathy?”? “I’ll torture you first, and then I won’t let you talk. Will you agree?”? You Won’t agree? What should I do? If you tell us, then we’ll gain sympathy… Where’s your face? Oh. It’s gone. Where’s your conscience? Eaten by a dog?”
“If Qin Yaoguang really abused her young daughter, then not only is she guilty, but she’s also mentally ill, because only psychopaths abuse children.”
“Don’t spout nonsense upstairs. You Said Qin Yaoguang is mentally ill. Are you teaching her to use mental illness to get away with it?”
“Upstairs + ID number. Qin yaoguang is not mentally ill. People with mental illness will only hurt themselves, and only psychopaths will hurt others. Be careful, psychopaths are not psychopaths.”
The online public opinion was instantly drowned out by posts accusing Qin Yaoguang of abusing young children.
Gu Nianzhi had already calmly switched to another photo.
This photo was of Qin Suwen’s study. It was in the same place as the one she had “Misplaced”earlier, and the angle was almost the same.
The difference was that there was no longer the timid and wary child under the table.
On the empty s.p.a.ce in front of the table, there was a figure on the ground, drawn with white chalk.
