Zhou Wenjing is already anxious.

The courtroom is in recess for an hour now.

Maybe after an hour, her ex-boyfriend Tian Xinyu will be brought in.

At that time... who knows what will happen?

The least she needs is to find a lawyer to defend her.

Zhou Wenjing is aware that murder results in a death sentence.

Unless she can gain forgiveness, and there's a confession involved... factors that can lead to a lighter sentence, then maybe she could be sentenced to life imprisonment.

But if it is a case of intentional murder... and without a lawyer to help defend, then she's doomed!

It would definitely be the death penalty!

There's no way it would change.

Even if Zhou Wenjing doesn't admit it, she knows better than anyone what happened.

If Gu Chen really manages to find all the evidence, then it's all over!

The more Zhou Wenjing thinks, the more anxious she becomes...

Zhou Wenjing looked at Han Jingjing and said, "I can pay more! Whatever it takes, Lawyer Han, can you defend me?"

Han Jingjing furrowed her brow, "So you mean, you admit to committing murder?"

Zhou Wenjing was a bit worried...

In the vicinity, only she and Han Jingjing were speaking.

To tell Han Jingjing the truth... is it really okay?

What if Gu Chen is just trying to trick her?

What if Gu Chen doesn't have evidence?

Indeed, it was something from over five years ago, how could there possibly be evidence?

The police investigated at the time, and didn't find anything.

No matter how capable Gu Chen is, he's just a lawyer.

A lawyer, can he really be better at solving cases than the police?

Absolutely not possible!

Zhou Wenjing said, "Lawyer Han, I'm just worried there might be some unexpected factors, what if Gu Chen comes up with some fake evidence... anyway, I didn't commit murder, I truly didn't, Gu Chen is just bluffing me!"

"Lawyer Han, I really don't have any motive to murder! What does Wang Zhihao's father's life or death have to do with me, what benefit would it bring me if I killed him? Lawyer Han, don't listen to Gu Chen's nonsense, he might just be trying to bluff me, how could it be?"

Zhou Wenjing said, "Lawyer Han, even if the other side is a lawyer and knows the law, isn't it still possible he's tricking me? Don't lawyers ever break the law? Don't lawyers sometimes exploit the law? Who knows what Gu Chen's intentions are?"

Han Jingjing looked at Zhou Wenjing's demeanor.

She didn't know the evidence, nor did she know if Zhou Wenjing committed murder.

But Gu Chen is a professional lawyer within the industry...

How many cases has Gu Chen handled?

Gu Chen even sent the chief judge to jail!!

Even school executives, bank executives, Gu Chen didn't spare them either!

Doesn't this prove Gu Chen's professionalism in handling cases?

Recently, Gu Chen handled a case that sent bank executives and school leaders to jail....

How could a person like that joke about such matters?

Thinking of this, Han Jingjing decided not to dwell too much.

If Zhou Wenjing speaks the truth, then she can reluctantly help defend, and it's just a help in defense.

A lawyer defending a murderer, it's also a very normal thing.

Basically every person sentenced to death will have a lawyer assisting with the defense.

Whether successful or not, this is a basic human right for everyone.

Before being sentenced to death, every criminal, regardless of how severe the crime, still has the right to hire a lawyer.

Once sentenced to death, there's nothing left to say.

Death row inmates have no human rights, deprived of political rights for life.

But if Zhou Wenjing continues to lie...

Then, Han Jingjing will not assist in defending this case for Zhou Wenjing.

Han Jingjing looked at Zhou Wenjing and asked, "Look into my eyes, tell the truth, did you commit murder?"

"Think it over, this is your only chance."

"If you admit honestly, then I will defend you, there are cases nowadays where murderers are defended to a life sentence, and not every murderer ends up with a death sentence."

"But if you don't confess, then if it's later verified that you did commit murder, I won't help defend you, you can find another lawyer, only it's still within the court session now, you can't find another lawyer, unless today's court isn't concluded, then you can change lawyers, but in court you can't change lawyers, think it over yourself." Han Jingjing looked at Zhou Wenjing and said.

Frankly, she's just a lawyer.

Zhou Wenjing's involvement or not in murder has nothing to do with her.

She just needs to finish this case.

But this murder case has already exceeded her work scope.

She is still here helping Zhou Wenjing because the divorce case involved the murder case.

Later even if she's in court, she can choose not to defend.

To defend, she needs to communicate with Zhou Wenjing about the facts... then seek a way to defend through the facts.

If Zhou Wenjing isn't willing to disclose the facts, no lawyer can help defend her.

Zhou Wenjing looked at Han Jingjing....

Zhou Wenjing is struggling and thinking.....

How should she answer?

Han Jingjing opened, "Answer me quickly, don't hesitate, I'm asking if you committed murder, what are you hesitating about? Did you kill Wang Zhihao's father?"

Zhou Wenjing was startled and said, "It has nothing to do with me, what does this have to do with me? No... why is everyone forcing me like this, it has nothing to do with me! I don't know!!"

Zhou Wenjing's lips are even trembling slightly.

Han Jingjing looked at Zhou Wenjing's demeanor, actually already knowing in her heart.

If she hasn't committed murder, would Zhou Wenjing be like this?

What is Zhou Wenjing nervous about?

Han Jingjing asked, "Then tell me, is Wang Zhihao's father's death related to you? You just need to answer whether or not it's related, nothing else."

Zhou Wenjing cried and said, "I don't know... I just bought a battery to charge at home and then it exploded, what can I do, why do people all accuse me of being a murderer? This is all the facts I have to say, Lawyer Han, I didn't commit murder! I really didn't commit murder! If it's said that me doing this equals murder, then I have no way."

"The electric vehicle is mine, I took the battery home to charge, and then I took the child out to play and the battery exploded at home, it's related to me, I shouldn't have taken the battery home, I should die!"

"I shouldn't live in this world, right? I shouldn't have bought an electric vehicle! I bought an electric vehicle to pick up my child from school, but how could I anticipate this happening?"

"Lawyer Han, this is everything I have to disclose."

"The battery is the one I brought home to charge, I didn't expect the explosion…."

"I'm very remorseful, very regretful... but does this mean, I committed murder? Did I intend for the battery to explode?"

Zhou Wenjing trembled and cried in the corner....

Then stated all the "facts" she has.
