If you were asked to file a lawsuit, how come you were not found guilty?

Chapter 29 Not guilty!Released in court!
For Wen Xuan's family, every minute during the recess felt like a lifetime had passed.

Days and years are not enough to describe their mood.

Ren Zhen had already put his chin on the thermos cup, wondering what he was thinking.

squeak-

The door opened.

The three judges took their seats.

All eyes were on them.

"The adjournment is now over and the verdict of this case is announced."

"All rise!"

The clerk stood up first.

Swish!
Almost instantly, everyone became nervous.

The trial was full of twists and turns.

Now it was finally time to announce the results, and all those who witnessed it felt a sense of solemnity.

"According to relevant legal provisions, this court has the corresponding jurisdiction over the case where the public prosecution agency accused Wen Xuan of intentionally killing Zhang Wenhai. It formed a collegial panel in accordance with the law and publicly heard the case. The trial has now been concluded."

"The public prosecution agency accused Wen Xuan of deliberately killing her husband Zhang Wenhai at home on June XX, 20XX, and was suspected of intentional homicide. The criminal facts are clear, the evidence is reliable and sufficient, and he should be held criminally responsible for intentional homicide."

“According to the provisions of our country’s criminal law, anyone who intentionally and illegally deprives others of their lives shall be subject to criminal punishment and bear corresponding criminal liability.”

"After the prosecutor and defense lawyer presented evidence and cross-examined evidence, and after a full court debate, some of the facts on the day of the crime were further clarified during the trial."

"After hearing by this court, in this case, although the defendant Wen Xuan's actions on the day of the incident led to the death of the victim Zhang Wenhai, Zhang Wenhai's behavior towards Wen Xuan at the time of the incident was suspected of rape, which is an ongoing unlawful infringement."

"Although Wen Xuan and Zhang Wenhai are legally married, it does not affect the determination of Zhang Wenhai's rape."

"Therefore, Wen Xuan's counterattack against Zhang Wenhai was a legitimate defense stipulated in Article 20 of my country's Criminal Law, and she should not be held criminally responsible according to law."

Zhang Lixia's majestic voice echoed throughout the court.

Everyone in the courtroom and everyone watching the live broadcast of the trial already realized something when they heard this.

Everyone held their breath.

Wen Xuan covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Jiang Xiuzhen had already hugged her husband next to her excitedly.

"According to the relevant laws and regulations of our country, the defendant Wen Xuan acted in self-defense and should not be held responsible for the death of the victim Zhang Wenhai. This court now makes the following judgment:

[-]. Revoke the first-instance judgment of the H City Intermediate People’s Court!
[-]. The defendant Wen Xuan was not guilty and was released in court! "

"This judgment is final. After the court hearing is over, the judgment will be delivered in time and it will take effect immediately!"

Zhang Lixia picked up the gavel and swung it down hard.

"Close the court!"

Boom!
As the gavel fell again, the trial finally came to an end.

"Am I innocent?"

Wen Xuan murmured.

It seems that some can't believe their ears.

"Congratulations."

The bailiff took Wen Xuan out of the dock and smiled at her.

"Can I go?"

Before Wen Xuan could digest this fact, she was hugged by Jiang Xiuzhen.

"My dear daughter!"

Jiang Xiuzhen was not as tall as Wen Xuan. This middle-aged woman with some gray hair buried her head on her daughter's shoulder, trembling all over.

Wen Xuan only felt wetness on her shoulders.

"mom!"

Wen Xuan finally reacted and hugged her mother with her backhand, tears pouring out uncontrollably.Wen Mingyang stood aside, with a twinkle in his eye socket. He wanted to hug the mother and daughter, but felt it was inappropriate.

For a while, he seemed a little at a loss.

Snapped!
With a soft sound, Ren Zhen's palm gently fell on Wen Mingyang's back, pushing him forward.

Wen Mingyang followed the current and gently hugged his wife and daughter.

"appoint"

Seeing Ren Zhen coming over, Wen Mingyang wanted to say something, but Ren Zhen shook his head gently.

Making a phone gesture next to his ear, Wen Mingyang nodded quickly.

He is already several decades old, but he is still so coquettish.

With a convenient assist, Ren Zhen walked towards the clerk with a bag in his left hand and a thermos cup in his right hand.

The family is finally reunited, so it’s better not to disturb them.

After they calm down, they will naturally come to the law firm to find him.

Are you still worried that Wen Mingyang and the others will miss out on legal fees?
After signing the court trial transcript, Wang Shiyang clicked his tongue:
"Lawyer Ren is amazing! You won this case!"

"It's just luck!"

Ren Zhen smiled and shook his head, but saw a complicated look next to him.

"Do you feel a sense of accomplishment when you help a murderer get away with his crime?"

Seeing him looking over, Huang Jing said in a low voice.

"murderer?"

Ren Zhen originally planned to pretend that he didn't see Huang Jing, turn around and leave.

Hearing Huang Jing's words, Ren Zhen stopped.

"Prosecutor, do you think Wen Xuan is a murderer?"

After hearing Ren Zhen's question, Huang Jing sneered: "Zhang Wenhai is dead and was killed by Wen Xuan. Do you think she is a murderer?"

Ren Zhen frowned: "Then if Wen Xuan is convicted today according to the charges in the indictment, and Wen Xuan is sent to jail or even shot, will you feel a sense of accomplishment?"

"It's my job to make sure those who commit crimes get the punishment they deserve."

Huang Jing snorted coldly: "How can I feel a sense of accomplishment because of this?"

"Then you are really noble."

Ren Zhen tilted his head, and the corners of his mouth curved. In Huang Jing's eyes, it looked like mockery.

"what do you mean?"

Huang Jing was suddenly angry.

"Do you really think Wen Xuan deserves to die?"

Ren Zhen's sudden question stopped Huang Jing's surging anger level.

"Defending a rapist, do you feel a sense of accomplishment?"

Another sense of accomplishment popped up, leaving Huang Jing stunned.

"When will I defend a rapist?"

Huang Jing was suddenly speechless.

"Have you ever thought that when you tried your best to get Wen Xuan sentenced in court, you were actually defending Zhang Wenhai?"

Ren Zhen narrowed his eyes, "If Zhang Wenhai is just the victim of intentional homicide, there is nothing wrong with what you do."

"But those facts are so clear before our eyes. Are all the efforts you made to send Wen Xuan in to protect Zhang Wenhai in disguise?"

"Or do you still not think Zhang Wenhai is a rapist?"

A series of questions made Huang Jing fall into deep thinking.

The feeling of confusion that had occurred several times during the trial came back to me again.
