Chapter 7 He wants to sue us?
Higher People's Court of Province C.

Ren Zhen tightened the belt and looked at the waistband of the trousers, which was still very wide, and was speechless for a while.

Ren Zhen No. [-] in this world is really too poor.

He rummaged through his closet and found several cheap suits that didn't fit him well.

Either it has faded due to disrepair, or it is too tight and wide.

In short, it neither looks good nor is comfortable to wear.

In the end, he simply picked a large-size suit that he bought on sale.

Except for the pants, which are a bit big, everything else looks fine.

We have to become bigger and stronger quickly, otherwise we won’t even be able to afford decent clothes.
After glancing around, Ren Zhen finally saw Wen Mingyang and his wife waiting there not far away.

"Lawyer Ren, you're here!"

Seeing Ren Zhen, Wen Mingyang hurriedly waved to him.

Ren Zhen walked over and said hello to the two of them. Seeing the masks on their faces, he couldn't help but feel a little strange:
"It's almost court time, why are you standing here?"

"And what's going on with this mask? Do you have a cold?"

They were standing on a corner, about a hundred meters away from the court entrance.

Faced with Ren Zhen's question, Wen Mingyang sighed and pointed to the door of the court:
"Lawyer Ren, have you seen those reporters?"

Ren Zhen turned around and took a look. Sure enough, there was a group of people carrying cameras and microphones, looking around, seemingly looking for something.

"It's not that we want to hide, it's just that these reporters are too scary!"

Ren really remembered.

When they communicated with Wen Mingyang and Jiang Xiuzhen before, they mentioned that from the time Wen Xuan was arrested by the police until the end of the first trial, they accepted countless interviews.

At first, they tried to speak up for Wen Xuan in front of the camera, thinking that it might be helpful to the case.

Later, they discovered that not only did this not help, but there were more and more scoldings online.

So they declined all interviews.

What they didn't expect was that these media reporters were like maggots in the tarsal bones. Even if they didn't contact them in advance, they would come directly to their homes.

And the angles from which reporters ask questions are becoming increasingly sharp.

After the first-instance verdict came out, the question even arose: "Wen Xuan became a murderer, how much responsibility do you think you should bear?"

So much so that Wen Mingyang and Jiang Xiuzhen now have a fear of the Internet.

But looking at today's posture, it's impossible to hide even if you want to.

"It doesn't matter. I'll deal with it later. Just keep silent."

Ren Zhen comforted the couple and led them towards the door of the court.

Having devoted himself wholeheartedly to the case before, Ren Zhen didn't take the situation mentioned by Wen Mingyang and his wife too seriously.

Death penalty cases are all extremely attractive topics.

Journalists who make a living from this, of course, cannot miss any reporting opportunity.

Ren Zhen has seen countless journalists trying every means and using every means for the so-called breaking news.

Just to write a one-sided or even distorted report, but it can become a hot topic.

But now is not the time to think about these things.

After all, the defense itself is the top priority. As for the other matters, it is not too late to deal with them after the second trial is over.

While walking towards the door of the court, Ren Zhen motioned to Wen Mingyang and his wife to take off their masks.

They didn't kill the person, so why should they cover it up?

It's not their fault.

What's more, no matter what the outcome of today's second trial is, the subsequent public opinion storm is inevitable.

Wearing masks now will only make people think they are guilty.

It will undoubtedly cause some trouble later.The soldiers are coming to block it, and there is nothing to hide from.

From a distance, the reporters' eyes lit up when they saw Wen Mingyang and Jiang Xiuzhen.

Immediately afterwards, Ren Zhen and the other three were surrounded.

"Mr. Wen, your daughter is going to be tried today. How do you feel now?"

"After the first-instance verdict, you stopped accepting interviews. Does this mean that you also agree with the verdict?"

"I heard that you rejected the victim's family's request for compensation. As parents, aren't you willing to make some amends for your daughter's crime?"

"Don't you two have anything to say to the victim's family about raising such a daughter?"

A bunch of microphones were shoved in front of them in an instant, and Wen Mingyang and Jiang Xiuzhen subconsciously blocked them with their hands.

After hearing several of the questions, the two of them froze, with angry looks on their faces.

Jiang Xiuzhen couldn't help but speak: "Please tell me clearly, what does such a daughter mean? What about my daughter?"

As soon as the words came out, Ren Zhen raised his hand to signal Jiang Xiuzhen not to speak.

Thinking of Ren Zhen's explanation just now, Jiang Xiuzhen endured it and finally said no more.

He just glared at the reporter bitterly.

As a reporter, it is a basic skill to cultivate your face. Naturally, you will not be frightened by the look in the eyes of a rural woman.

But they also realized at this time that there were three people surrounded.

So the microphones in their hands adjusted their direction and turned to Ren Zhen.

"I am Wen Xuan's lawyer, my name is Ren Zhen. If you have any questions, you can ask them after the second trial is over."

Without intending to say anything more, Ren Zhen turned around, pushed aside the crowd, and led Wen Mingyang and the others toward the court gate.

However, the group of people behind him seemed not to hear what he said.

You said we would listen to you if you ask again later?

How old are you?

"I heard that Wen Xuan did not plan to appeal after the first trial. If it were not for her parents, the first-instance judgment would have taken effect now. As a second-instance lawyer, I wonder what lawyer Ren thinks?"

"Does this mean Wen Xuan has confessed? Then there is no need for you to show up today?"

"Defending a murderer, doesn't Lawyer Ren think that this goes against your original intention of studying law?"

"The legal fees for this case should be quite high, right? Can you tell me how much you charged?"

Ren Zhen stopped.

Turn around.

He looked at the group of reporters behind him with a calm expression.

Everyone stopped.

“It doesn’t matter what my original intention was in studying law.”

"The important thing is that no matter what Wen Xuan did, her appearance in this court today is completely reasonable and legal. This is the right given to her by the law. At the same time, the law also gives me the right to defend her."

Ren Zhen opened the microphone in front of him that was almost shoved into his mouth, and looked at the reporter who questioned his original intention:
"Before the verdict takes effect, I think it is very imprudent and extremely inappropriate to call my client a murderer."

"I hope you will be careful in your words and deeds, otherwise my client will consider holding those who made corresponding inappropriate remarks accountable."

Ren Zhen turned and left.

A group of reporters were left stunned.

"What kind of responsibility did he just say?"

"You don't want anyone to talk about murder anymore?"

A reporter hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly: "Does he mean to sue us?"

Reporters:? ! ! ! !
