What's wrong with this lawyer?!

So, the sarcasm from the netizens grew more intense, and people over at the live trial site started sweating.

Indeed, problems always arise during Tang Fangjing's livestreams, just look at the current situation, there are too many people stirring up trouble.

Old Tang sat there, also at a loss for words.

He had been a lawyer for so long and had dealt with many rookies.

But, even the greenest lawyer passed the bar exam properly, underwent internships, and are professionals.

As for this Mr. Li, it's not a matter of being inexperienced, but rather a matter of not being professional at all; he seems to lack even the most basic courtroom skills.

Of course, there are many people in court who don't hire lawyers, and the judge's attitude towards laypersons and legal professionals is completely different.

If an ordinary person makes a mistake in court, the judge generally advises them to correct it, because they truly don't know and won't be too harsh.

Some elderly people come to court and start with "Your Honor," scaring the judge into quickly asking them to simply address him as Judgment Chief, nothing "Your Honor."

But for lawyers and legal professionals, the judge is generally stricter.

There was a case where the plaintiff was a layperson and the defendant hired a lawyer.

The plaintiff's complaint was wrongly filed as an appellate case, which was not a big issue and could be corrected later.

But the defendant's lawyer disagreed, claiming it was a serious procedural issue, and repeatedly insisted on this point in court.

The judge got annoyed and eventually said, "Stop twisting the facts."

As a result, the lawyer got angry and refused to speak for the rest of the trial, immediately filing a complaint against the judge afterward, claiming the judge deprived him of his right to speak during the trial...

Some matters are so ridiculous you can't even imagine, making one marvel at the diversity of humanity.

So, Old Tang just watched the drama unfold silently; no matter what, this Mr. Li definitely left a deep impression on him.

Few lawyers from before had been memorable to him.

Judge Song didn't dwell on the issue, because it isn't a false statement just because you say so.

"Do you have anything else to add besides this?"

Under the watchful eyes of the entire court, Li Zhongda finally shook his head and said, "Nothing else."

The netizens sighed in disappointment; that's it? They thought he would reveal something more interesting.

But what's been said is enough!

With such a big controversy, relevant departments have to investigate; there are too many issues involved.

Judge Song banged the gavel: "The trial is adjourned!"

Such cases obviously cannot be decided on the spot, and with the gavel's strike, the livestream finally ended.

The netizens quickly shifted their attention elsewhere, and various screenshots and recordings began appearing on other platforms.

The demands from the netizens are simple: investigate, conduct a thorough investigation, as deep as possible!

So much time has passed without approval, which clearly indicates a huge issue. Are the chairman and secretary of several Group's main leaders so busy every day that they don't even have time to approve documents?

If it were a private company, that'd be one thing, but this is a state-owned enterprise!

The public has the right to oversee this, and you must provide an explanation.

Old Tang packed up his things, grabbed his briefcase, and walked out. He felt... this time, some people might end up incarcerated again.

You see, with things going on like this, his image in the netizens' minds might be completely cemented.

Li Zhongda, on the other hand, seemed okay, feeling he said what needed to be said and did it well.

As for winning, he wasn't sure, but it should be possible.

Likewise, he grabbed his bag and left the courthouse, then dialed his phone.

On the City Development Group's side, Gao Wentang paced in his office, feeling his heartbeat quicken.

The situation online was already unwatchable; some netizens were saying that for someone like him, the death penalty wouldn't be excessive...

Of course, that's just talk; netizens have always started with the death penalty, no matter the issue, just execute them first.

Although execution is unlikely, an investigation is bound to happen!

And this time the situation is different from before, where in some online reports, it was mentioned investigations would begin on so-and-so, but whether there were results later didn't matter.

What mattered was the attitude at that time!

You can search for it; in many public opinion events, the response when it's hot is quick, with immediate reports on investigations and such.

But then no results can be found, either, like disappearing without a trace.

But this time, Tang Fangjing is involved.

With Tang Fangjing's personality, if your investigation doesn't result in something conclusive, he absolutely won't let it go!

As for whether the investigation will uncover problems... Gao Wentang didn't dare to gamble; out of the past eight leaders in his position, six had ended up incarcerated, a place where even a fart stains your pants with grease...

Just as his blood pressure was rising, his phone rang. Seeing it was a call from Li Zhongda, he picked it up.

Damnit, it's all because of Li Zhongda. If he hadn't spoken carelessly during the trial, how could he be facing this situation?

He was already at an age where he could have retired and landed safely in a couple of years!

Answering the call, Gao Wentang immediately began lashing out with curses.

"What the hell were you saying during the trial, are you out of your mind, the trial was livestreamed..."

On the other end, Li Zhongda was left dumbfounded by this continuous barrage of insults.

"Wait, Mr. Gao, this… the trial isn't over yet, and I wasn't speaking nonsense!"
