(Thanks to Yiyeguzhou T7 Nuwa boss for the reward! )

Su Qi silently watched Yang Ming, even though the two were on opposite sides.

But the scene was so tragic that even she couldn't help but feel sorry for Yang Ming.

If she were in his shoes, Su Qi shuddered after thinking about it.

"Quick, record this scene, and also film the shot of her kneeling on the ground." An Ning and Wang Zijin directed Gu Panpan to film this scene.

This scene made many reporters watching from the side extremely envious. However, their household chores were all left outside the door.

In court proceedings, it is prohibited to use any electronic devices, such as cameras or recorders, without permission.

However, if an application is submitted to the court in advance, the court will handle it at its discretion.

Of course, there were many reporters who wanted to photograph today's events. If there were too many reporters, it would definitely disrupt the trial, so there was only one spot available.

Wang Zijin then used her connections, including Su Qi and Yang Ming, to forcefully seize the spot from Su University. She even borrowed a camera specifically for this purpose, which led to this scene.

"Defendant, please continue with your testimony." The judge, however, remained unaffected by the video and maintained a solemn expression.

The lawyer with gold-rimmed glasses quickly calmed down after listening to the judge's words.

After all, having worked as a lawyer for a long time, I don't tend to report too many cases of clients knowing something but not reporting it, or cases where there is a lack of information.

Although the lack of information from Wang Dahua was fatal, it wasn't a hopeless situation.

"The plaintiff's video is indeed strong evidence. However, this video cannot prove that the plaintiff did not commit the crime of disseminating documents."

Actually, this argument is a biased one. Because if Su Qi is accused of "spreading documents," although Yang Ming's actions were unsuccessful, because Su Qi was at fault first, Yang Ming, while also at fault,...

The sentence will be determined accordingly.

The man with the gold-rimmed glasses pushed up his glasses and continued:

"Although stmmm' is a wholly overseas company and the plaintiff's game is sold entirely overseas, this does not violate the law. However, the plaintiff's fans have been helping the plaintiff promote the game indirectly online and have generated profits, which violates the law."

After speaking, the man with the gold-rimmed glasses handed the judge a picture of a woman he had found online beforehand.

Lawyer Lin Zi had anticipated the other party's thoughts, and the two began another round of verbal sparring.

The struggle between the two lasted for more than ten minutes, but there was still no result.

But it completely shattered Su Qi's worldview. For over ten minutes, neither of them repeated their points, yet both emphasized their own stances. However, despite her shock, Su Qi gradually pieced together the key points.

That is, whether you have profited from the promotion by other group members.

Mentioning this made Su Qi perk up. She was penniless right now, with no money to speak of; she only had four figures left in her bank account. All her money had been donated by the System Girl.

Wait a minute, if you donate it, if you donate it to the disaster area, doesn't that prove you haven't made a profit?

Remembering this important matter, Su Qi took out her phone and, with the guidance of the System Girl, found all the donation details. She then tugged at the hem of Lawyer Lin Zi's clothes.

Lawyer Lin Zi was still thinking about what she should say next when Su Qi pulled her, interrupting her.

That gave me a clue.

However, when faced with Su Qi's big, bright eyes, he really had no temper.

Then he turned his attention to the phone Su Qi had handed him. Looking at the details of each donation, ranging from a million to a thousand, Lin Zi was shocked.

Because the revenue from Bilibili and the game didn't go through any bank transactions; it was all donated by the System Girl.

It's important to know that without bank statements, these transactions cannot be verified. Even Lawyer Lin Zi couldn't verify these transactions.

Moreover, Lin Zi paid attention to the timing; it wasn't the last couple of days, but rather the day the heavy rains hit Henan and the day the company...

Donate a large sum of money.

Lin Zi examined each detail carefully. She had estimated Su Qi's wealth, and looking at the total amount, didn't this mean that almost all of it had been donated?

After seeing the bill, Lin Zi suddenly felt ashamed of herself.

She is a well-known lawyer in Su City with a high success rate. Many people seek her legal counsel. Last year, she earned 6 million yuan, and this year she has already earned as much as 3 million yuan.

She had many times more money than this young girl, yet she only donated 10,000 yuan to the disaster relief effort.

Although no one said she donated too little.

But looking at the soft, cute, and innocent-looking little girl in front of her, and seeing her donate all her money in such a contrast, she was still quite moved.

After all, in today's somewhat materialistic and money-obsessed society, there are very few 'fools' like Su Qi.

If Su Qi knew what Lin Zi was thinking, she would definitely find it both funny and exasperating.

After the man with the gold-rimmed glasses finished speaking, Lin Zi raised his hand and said, "Judge, I have the game revenue and whereabouts information here."

Upon hearing Lin Zi's remarks, the man with the gold-rimmed glasses felt a jolt of unease slowly creeping into his heart.

Normally, one would try to cover up the money. But Lin Zi actually presented the judge with evidence against him.

The man with the gold-rimmed glasses knew all too well that Lawyer Lin Zi was cunning and manipulative.

With such cunning methods, how could anyone willingly reveal the plaintiff's secret?

Something unusual must be going on. Strange, very strange.

Wang Dahua's eyes lit up; was the opposing lawyer about to turn against her?

After taking the phone, the judges were surprised and incredulous when they saw the considerable sums of money donated.

Finally, the phone was handed over to the presiding judge.

The presiding judge glanced at his phone, then subconsciously looked at the plaintiff, and after thinking for two seconds, said, "The court will adjourn for ten minutes."

The man with the wire-rimmed glasses watched as a staff member hurriedly grabbed her phone during the court recess and busied herself on her computer, making calls. He was startled. Could it be that she had transferred the money back?

Of course, he wasn't the only one confused; many people in the audience seats also realized that the problem lay with the phone.

Fortunately, ten minutes passed quickly.

With the judge's gavel banging, the trial resumed.

This time, however, Su Qi had a strange feeling that the people in the judgment seat seemed to be looking at her with friendliness.

A judge silently projected every bill detail that Su Qi had just checked on her phone onto the projector.

While everyone was watching the torrential rain in Henan, they were all stunned when she announced her donation of 4 million yuan early in the morning.

Seeing the surprised looks on everyone's faces, Su Qi realized they had all misunderstood; she had been forced to donate money. The lawyer with gold-rimmed glasses had no more arguments to make. The bank statements and the video evidence were irrefutable. Even someone as quick-witted as him couldn't think of any way to smooth things over.

Perhaps because of this additional bill, the presiding judge and the judge unanimously agreed to ultimately convict Yang Ming of attempted crime and, due to the egregious nature of the offense, sentence him to six years in prison.

Yang Ming, who had just recovered from his shock and stood up, felt as if the sky had fallen after hearing the verdict. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.

As Yang Daming watched his son being carried away, he felt a chill run down his spine and trembled uncontrollably.

Watching his wife hire such a great lawyer and then pull off such a bizarre stunt—a failed attempt resulting in a 6-year sentence—this defense could only have been executed with a ten-year brain thrombosis.

Thinking that he would be the next one to be judged, he looked at the lawyer with gold-rimmed glasses was still the same as before—

Yang Daming said he was terrified because of the appearance of a bamboo shoot on his chest.
