The courtroom was quiet for another minute, then erupted again.
This situation seemed to be the norm in court trials involving Gu Nianzhi.
Just like riding a roller coaster, everyone is fascinated and unable to extricate themselves from it.
Outside the court, the official blog of the U.S. Embassy in China hinted at threats of war and demanded that China "release" "Cultural Counselor Kevin" on Weibo, which has become the scene of a large-scale overturn.
[666! The President and Secretary of State of the United States appointed a Japanese spy as an American diplomat, and then came to China to claim diplomatic immunity!].
[Such a slutty operation, definitely the sluttiest, reaching the top of the rankings, debuting in C position!].
[The American legal team is amazing. They defended a Japanese spy so vigorously and even gave him a position as an American diplomat. Is it stupid? !].
[The picture upstairs in Tucson is broken! Can money matters be called childish? Anyway, if they can make money from the Japanese, no matter who they are, even if they are traitors selling out the United States, these people will not hesitate to take the case. As long as the money is enough, nothing will be a problem!].
[That’s right! American lawyer said: What is a country? Can it be eaten? Can you give me money? If you can't give me money, are you just making a fool of yourself? !].
[I just asked the blogger if your face hurts!].
[There is a serious logical problem with your sentence upstairs. The blogger has no face at all. How can it hurt?].
[I just want to know, blogger, are you still threatening our country with war to release your country's 'diplomats'?].
[Your Chinese Pill! Your country refers to the United States. Dog head saves life.JPG].
…
Gu Nianzhi smiled as he watched Kevin's expression change from calm and indifferent to uncontrollably distorted.
She raised her hand and looked at her watch and said: "It is now 10 a.m. China time, and it is 11 p.m. in the United States. If we wait a little longer, the emergency meeting convened by the U.S. Congress should have results."
Dense beads of sweat appeared on Lu Anpeng's forehead. He took out a tissue to wipe the sweat on his forehead and said forcefully at all costs: "Regardless of whether Congress is in session or not, my client was a diplomat when the case occurred! You should enjoy diplomatic immunity!”
Gu Nianzhi stared at him, clasped his hands on his chest, and said calmly: "Is the defendant's lawyer planning to force his arguments to the end?"
Arif, an Indian-born barrister, quickly followed up and said: "Even if Congress revokes my client's diplomat qualifications, it did so only today. And my client was already a legal diplomat more than two months ago!"
"Are you trying to pick on me?" Gu Nianzhi raised his eyebrows, "Your appointment letter can be dated retroactively. If someone cancels the appointment letter, why can't it be retroactively dated? Mr. Arif, what's your logic?"
She lowered her arms and continued to sarcastically say: "Actually, you might as well just defend according to the 'mental illness' plan that was originally drawn up. Why bother to go through all the trouble of trying to get a diplomat position?"
Kevin: "..."
Lu Anpeng: "..."
American Lawyers Collective: “…”
They stared at Gu Nianzhi, almost gritting their teeth.
Now they finally understood why in the beginning, Gu Nianzhi deliberately took out a few names and photos of his classmates and showed them to Kevin!
That's a perfect way to kill two birds with one stone, please put yourself in the urn!
To them, it's a dead game that means you'll die if you make a move forward, or die if you retreat!
With just that one move, the possibility of "psychosis", their final bottom line plan, was completely disrupted.
And the sluggish state that Kevin showed at the beginning can be attributed to "mental illness". Later, the image of this handsome noble man was such that even a blind man would not admit that he was mentally ill...
Gu Nianzhi smiled and admired the various expressions of these people, and was about to continue talking when someone suddenly opened the door and came in and said to the judge: "Your Honor, the prosecution has received new evidence and hopes to present it immediately."
The person who came was Gu Nianzhi's right-hand man Rong Mingxing.
Her eyes lit up and she immediately asked: "Has the result been announced by the US Congress?"
Rong Mingxing nodded and said happily: "The U.S. House of Representatives just voted, with 400 votes in favor and 35 abstentions, passing a resolution invalidating Kevin's appointment as Cultural Counselor by the President and Secretary of State!"
Gu Nianzhi laughed and said to Arif, the Indian-born barrister: "Did you hear that? They didn't cancel your client's diplomat qualifications. They just voted directly and said the appointment letter was invalid."
"Since the appointment letter is invalid, it will not take effect on December 23 last year and cannot take effect. - Defendant Kevin, you should tell the truth honestly and clearly. Japan Tectech instructed you to come to China to kidnap our high-energy physics professor Scientist, for what reason?"
Kevin's face was pale, sitting in the dock, like a bamboo pole about to be bent by heavy snow, and even his lips had lost their color.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the news briefing sent to her by Mingxing Rong and continued: "Kevin's parents have been arrested by the CIA in New York. Their home is a stronghold of Japan's Tecno in the United States."
Lu Anpeng opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
He was still a little confused.
This is obviously a legal issue, so why did it end up being linked to a political issue
Kevin's eyes gradually became dark, and he stared at Gu Nianzhi like a poisonous snake.
Gu Nianzhi clicked his tongue twice and said: "Your plan not only kidnapped our country's high-energy physicists, but also attempted to use a honey trap to infiltrate our country's senior generals. However, we saw through it and used the trick to arrest you."
"Defendant Kevin, who is your upline and who is your downline? Don't you plan to confess?"
Gu Nianzhi's tone was persuasive and his attitude was gentle and natural, just like the girl next door chatting casually.
She continued: "Our policy is to be lenient if you confess and be strict if you resist. It is better to explain yourself than to have someone else explain you."
Arif, a barrister of Indian origin, snorted and said, "I also know that you Chinese people have a saying, which is that those who confess will be treated leniently and those who will go to jail will be punished. Those who resist will be treated strictly and go home to celebrate the New Year."
Gu Nianzhi laughed and said sarcastically: "Mr. Arif, you know too much! But don't worry, we are still very tolerant to our international friends."
Kevin still kept a straight face and said nothing.
Gu Nianzhi never thought about what secrets could be uncovered in court. She turned around and looked at the trial seat to conclude her statement: "Your Honor, the defendant Kevin kidnapped and premeditated the murder of the high-energy physicist of our country on the evening of December 24 last year. Scholar Song Jinning has solid evidence."
“I hope the court can deal with it sternly!”
The judge looked at Gu Nianzhi's victory, nodded majestically, and said, "Adjourn the court for five minutes and wait for the court to deliberate before pronouncing the verdict."
With that said, he knocked the gavel, stood up and left the court.
The court suddenly became noisy. Many people came over to congratulate Gu Nianzhi, but they could not get close to Gu Nianzhi because the team around Gu Nianzhi had already protected her tightly.
The team she led today was actually not from the Upper House of Parliament, but the security personnel sent by Huo Shaoheng.
But Kevin's side was much more chaotic. Many people crowded over to watch the excitement. News organizations stretched out their microphones in an attempt to interview Kevin's legal team.
His legal team escorted him out in a hurry to go to a small conference room next to him to discuss countermeasures and prepare for an appeal.
At this time, someone suddenly came over, pushed through everyone, and said loudly: "You are such a wolf-hearted guy! How dare you kill my mentor! I will fight with you!"
As he spoke, he raised his arm and slapped Kevin hard on the right face.
The right side of his face was in burning pain, but Kevin also felt that the left side of his face had been pricked by a needle, and the left half of his face suddenly became numb.
Soon the numbness spread throughout his body, and he couldn't even lift his legs. He struggled to move. If he moved again, he fell straight to the ground with a snap.
The people surrounding Kevin immediately dispersed in all directions. No one dared to touch him for fear of being touched.
And the man who slapped Kevin stood there blankly, looking at his hands and said: "...Why am I so strong?"
The court bailiff immediately pushed past everyone and came over, calling an ambulance and calling the judge at the same time.
Seeing this, Lu Jin immediately squeezed over from the corner, winked at Gu Nianzhi, and asked her with his lips if she wanted him to go take a look.
Gu Nianzhi calmly shook her head at him.
