Lawyer Gu closed his eyes, and instantly all the evidence about this case appeared before him in the system!
If you have a cheat, of course, you should use it!
Actually, Gu Chen could win this case easily without any cheats.
But Zhou Wenjing was too arrogant!
Caught cheating and putting a green hat on her husband, yet her attitude in court was so vile, and she even tried to rip people off in the hospital?
Gu Chen could win the case on his own, but he couldn't send Zhou Wenjing to jail.
Now he wanted to use the system to see if there was any other evidence.
If there was other evidence, sending Zhou Wenjing to jail wouldn't be impossible.
When he opened the system...
Gu Chen just took a glance.
Instantly, Gu Chen's emotions were a bit off.
The first line of evidence on the system interface was highlighted in red!
There was only one line—
[Zhou Wenjing killed Wang Hai with her ex-boyfriend five years ago.]
There was a lot of evidence, but it was all greyed out.
To unlock the evidence, it would take seven days to fully unlock everything.
Gu Chen initially thought this was a simple civil case, but he didn't expect it to turn out to be a criminal case!
Zhou Wenjing and her ex-boyfriend actually committed murder?
And the victim was Wang Hai....
Gu Chen had discussed the situation with Wang Zhihao.
Wang Zhihao's father's full name was Wang Hai!
While working outside, Wang Hai accidentally fell, resulting in a high-level paraplegia, making it impossible for him to stand for life.
So Wang Hai was recuperating at home....
According to Wang Zhihao, his father died in a fire five years ago.
The cause was a battery fire in an electric scooter, causing an explosion in the room, with no one at home at the time...
They later sued the scooter manufacturer and received 800,000 yuan in compensation.
Gu Chen didn't pay much attention to this matter at the time.
Unexpectedly... this was the truth!
Zhou Wenjing turned out to be a murderer!
The case was five years old, and no one knew...
Today, Gu Chen discovered this...
Zhou Wenjing actually killed a fellow citizen...
In that case, Gu Chen definitely had to send Zhou Wenjing to jail!
Intentional homicide warrants the death penalty!
So the case wasn't just about dividing assets in a divorce but a criminal case.
But Gu Chen didn't make any noise.
Because there was still no evidence, and the system needed seven days to extract it all.
And the system doesn't just hand the evidence to Gu Chen on a platter.
During these seven days, Gu Chen still has to investigate and contact certain people to gradually unlock the evidence.
The case is quite complex, so the system takes longer to process.
Gu Chen reviewed all the system evidence and found one piece missing.
Zhou Wenjing used makeup and Photoshop to fabricate and slander Wang Zhihao for domestic violence.
These were pure fabrications on Zhou Wenjing's part, and the system won't provide evidence for that.
Because it's a unilateral slander by Zhou Wenjing...
To prove oneself, evidence must be found.
Which is quite simple for Gu Chen.
The seven days give him just enough time to resolve this.
Seven days later, the trial can resume!
Gu Chen said, "Your Honor, I believe that relying solely on videos and pictures cannot sufficiently prove that Wang Zhihao committed domestic violence against Zhou Wenjing. In modern society, videos and pictures can be faked, and even injuries can be photoshopped. Take films and TV shows as simple examples where injuries, vomiting blood, and even death scenarios are acted vividly. So relying solely on these, the evidence chain is singular and incomplete."
"Your Honor, I believe Zhou Wenjing is slandering, defaming, and tarnishing the reputation of my client, and the defendant's lawyer Han Jingjing is breaking the law by providing false evidence, which is a crime too."
"So I move to adjourn the case."
"Regarding the evidence of Zhou Wenjing and Han Jingjing's slander and defamation, I will bring it to the next hearing."
"The court can reconvene in seven days."
Gu Chen didn't announce the intention to switch the nature of the case on the spot!
To convert a civil case into a criminal one...
Because to change the case, evidence must be submitted to the court in advance; it's not up to a single statement from Gu Chen to switch it.
Only after Gu Chen submits concrete evidence will the court convert it into a criminal case and then hold a hearing!
Therefore, for the conversion to a criminal case, Gu Chen isn't in a hurry.
Upon hearing Gu Chen's request for adjournment, the viewers in the livestream were already restless.
In the defendant's seat, Zhou Wenjing flashed a triumphant smile.
What, scared now?
Is this the so-called Lawless Madman?
Is that it?
So the case is adjourned?
Han Jingjing also smiled confidently.
This case is practically secure!
But if Gu Chen wants to adjourn, they have no choice either.
Let it be adjourned...
But will adjourning change the outcome?
The Little Fairies in the livestream were all sending bullet comments.
[????]
[What's with the Lawless Madman, is that it?]
[Adjourned?]
[Haha, so you know Wang Zhihao is a domestic abuser now, does adjourning even help?]
[Can't win so adjourn?]
[What Lawless Madman, I think the Lawless Madman is going to lose this time.]
[Wang Zhihao is a domestic abuser! I'm on Zhou Wenjing's side in this case! Support the sister!]
[How did the sister end up with such a man and this lawyer, adjourn when losing, really funny.]
Some male viewers didn't feel disappointed.
Seeing so many Little Fairies in the chat anxiously sending comments and mocking Lawyer Gu, they got a bit angry.
[I don't know why people are anxious; isn't adjournment normal, and how has Lawyer Gu lost?]
[Who said Lawyer Gu is going to lose? These videos and photos aren't necessarily credible.]
[There are so many Little Fairies in the livestream, Zhou Wenjing put how many green hats on her husband, and they still support her.]
[These Little Fairies are probably meeting Lawyer Gu for the first time, even if Lawyer Gu excels in civil cases over criminal ones, he's not going to lose this.]
[Just wait, next hearing, watch Lawyer Gu shine.]
[Can we send these Little Fairies off, they're too unruly mocking Lawyer Gu here?]
.....
At the same time.
In the courtroom.
Judge Lin Zhong struck the gavel.
The case reached an impasse, and an adjournment was inevitable.
They needed to investigate the evidence Zhou Wenjing submitted.
Whether the evidence was real or fake couldn't be determined instantly.
Did Wang Zhihao frequently commit domestic violence against Zhou Wenjing?
If so, the final judgment wouldn't leave Zhou Wenjing without any assets.
If the relationship is broken and both parties are at fault, the one more at fault will get less property....
"I now declare the court adjourned on this case!"
"The time and place for resuming the trial will be announced later."
Lin Zhong rapped the gavel.
Everyone present stood up.
This trial has reached a second adjournment!
