The viewers in the live stream were dumbfounded when they heard Ye Yulan say that.

A flood of 666666666666 filled the screen!

They had seen lawyers back out at the last minute, saying they weren't taking the case anymore.

But they had never seen the opposing lawyer switch sides at the last minute!

This was like ancient warfare where our strategist defected to the enemy!

Who could have predicted this?

Ye Yulan was a top lawyer at Jin Du Law Firm!

And she just left like that!!

Even wanting to join Gu Chen's side to help Tang Jian Country with the case!

[Hahaha, look at the expressions of the people at the defendant's seat; they didn't expect their hired lawyer to just leave, right?]

[Their expressions are all bewildered; the thing is, normal people really can't foresee this kind of situation.]

[Their hired lawyer left, didn't even want the money, and wants to join the other side to fight the case.]

[Hahaha, incredible, I've never seen anything like this; even death row inmates have lawyers defending them, regardless of what the defendant has done. What is this situation?]

[Only cases taken by Lawyer Gu, the Lawless Madman, turn out like this. Other cases wouldn't end up this way; no lawyer would run away or defect before the battle, yet Lawyer Gu managed to scare the opposing lawyer into fleeing.]

[Indeed, this is Lawyer Gu's intimidation. Who dares to offend the Lawless Madman? The main thing is Lawyer Gu is too strong as the plaintiff; he literally scared the three lawyers on the opposite side into silence. How can anyone defend against that?]

One by one, netizens posted bullet comments, all jeering.

Ye Yulan's move left Gu Chen dumbfounded as well.

You're the defense attorney for the defendant.

This is still in the courtroom, even if you want to back out; you still want to join his side?

This really isn't necessary.

Meng De Lake said, "Lawyer Ye! I can pay more! I can add money!! Another two hundred thousand is no problem; just defend me, please. I hired you as my defense lawyer, you can't just leave casually, there's a penalty for breach of contract!!"

Ye Yulan said, "Mr. Meng De Lake, our contract has already been terminated because, as the contract states, you needed to explain the situation of the case clearly to me. Only after knowing the specific facts could I defend you. But you told me you were innocent, nothing happened, and that Lawyer Gu was falsely accusing you, so I came to defend you."

"But now I find your explanation and the original description don't match. I'm refusing to take the case because you breached the contract first, so our contractual relationship is already terminated, and you still need to pay me the penalty." Ye Yulan said.

As a top lawyer from last year's nationally-ranked number one law firm, Ye Yulan certainly wouldn't compromise easily.

The main issue is this case... is impossible to argue!

If there was any room for defense, Ye Yulan would have come out to defend.

Now, Meng De Lake is universally condemned!

Ye Yulan had handled many death penalty defenses, and even in murder cases, there was room for defense.

This case has no room for defense!

Other people jumped off the building right there, yet instead of calling 911 to save them... they destroyed evidence, deleted surveillance footage; is this something a person can do?

It's arguable that Tang Xinran's death was a suicide.

But... Tang Xinran's death can't be separated from Meng De Lake!

Ignoring a person in distress is one thing; ordinary negligence is not illegal; at most, it garners some moral condemnation, but not severe consequences.

Yet Meng De Lake didn't call 911 and didn't let others call either!

This makes the situation much worse!!

This indicates that Tang Xinran's death is directly related to Meng De Lake!!

Moreover... even if Ye Yulan wanted to defend, there's no room for defense!

She simply has no means to proceed with the defense!!

How could she defend Meng De Lake?

Claim that Meng De Lake didn't see it?

Claim that Meng De Lake had no intent to kill?

Or say that Meng De Lake didn't do it on purpose?

A year has passed since the incident, and Meng De Lake didn't turn himself in. No matter how the verdict turns out, the law will judge Meng De Lake severely!

So.... Ye Yulan truly can't help defend this case!

Plus, without providing information beforehand, without giving a full analysis, how can she improvise?

This case is just like Zhao Lele's case.

Back when Zhao Lele hired a lawyer, she claimed she was raped by the other party and did nothing wrong herself.

But when the case was actually tried, it turned out otherwise.

Zhao Lele herself misled her lawyer and didn't speak the truth; how could the lawyer defend her?

In the end, the lawyer left, not returning the deposit or the legal fees, and Zhao Lele had nothing to say.

These cases are all where the client breached first.

If someone made a mistake, like needing imprisonment, or committed murder, theft, robbery, anything, lawyers could always be hired to help in the case.

Lawyers would prepare extensively to assist in the defense, which is very normal.

However, cases where the situation isn't explained beforehand, and significant changes arise in the middle, expecting lawyers to improvise?

Courtroom disputes rely on evidence!

Without any evidence, how can anyone improvise?

Plus, this case involves Ye Yulan's reputation.

If this case is lost badly, then why take it?

A lawyer's reputation in the field is quite important.

Ye Yulan won't fight unprepared battles.

Moreover, Ye Yulan also holds Meng De Lake in contempt from the bottom of her heart!

Behaviors like Meng De Lake's are akin to a murderer's!

Also, Ye Yulan has children herself, so she can naturally empathize with what Tang Jian Country is going through.

Especially after learning the truth, Ye Yulan wouldn't do anything to defend the opponent.

She wants to help Tang Jian Country fight the case!

This is also her stance.

Ye Yulan is equally furious.

Upon hearing Ye Yulan say she's not taking the case anymore...

Meng De Lake was dumbfounded.

Meng De Lake said, "Judge, I request to hire a lawyer, I need to find a new lawyer to help with my defense! I want to hire a lawyer; you can't take away my right to a lawyer, I need a lawyer...."

Meng De Lake was pale, devoid of color.

If he had a lawyer to help with the case, it would be his lifeline.

But now the three lawyers he hired have all left!

Judge Shen Jiarui said, "The court does not allow hiring lawyers midway, nor does it allow the defendant's defense lawyer to join the plaintiff's side."

Ye Yulan said, "Then I apply to sit in the gallery."

Ye Yulan wanted to see how this case was being handled.

Especially Gu Chen...

Gu Chen had opened a law firm of his own, and the three cases he had taken were known far and wide.

Ye Yulan sat in the gallery.

Meng De Lake was pale, as were Yan Kailong and Kang Guizhong.

It's over!

The lawyers they hired had all left!!

This case, with no lawyer, how could they fight against the Lawless Madman?
