However, the worst-case scenario still occurred. The judge gently tapped the gavel symbolizing justice and said, "Security, this person is disrupting the court’s order, take them out!"
Hearing the judge’s words, Hua Xiangrong, who had already ntally prepared, couldn’t help but feel despair. It seed that this judge and that director must have a deal. Was she supposed to let the evidence she held go unused forever? Hua Xiangrong was unwilling to give up. She ca here this ti to clear Xiao Yifei’s na, but now the situation was like this.
A few security guards were already walking towards Hua Xiangrong, "Don’t you all want to know the truth?" Hua Xiangrong cried, holding her phone, turning to the audience.
For a mont, the crowd who heard Hua Xiangrong’s words began to discuss among themselves.
"Enough! Security, hurry up and get this person out!" The judge appeared a bit nervous, as if afraid that the crowd would see what Hua Xiangrong had in her hands.
"Let go of ! Can’t you at least take a look before deciding? This is a place for justice!" Hua Xiangrong struggled, trying to break free from the security guards, but at this mont, she appeared so powerless.
Xiao Yifei watched everything unfolding in front of him and couldn’t help but sigh deeply. He knew in his heart that in this place where the judge had absolute power, seeking justice seed impossible, unless the justice was the judge himself.
"The sa goes for the rest of you. If you disrupt the court’s order, you’ll get the sa treatnt!" The judge righteously said to the crowd. Imdiately, the audience fell silent, even if they were dissatisfied in their hearts; they ultimately didn’t dare to voice it.
At this ti, the director finally wore a smug smile, which was identical to the expression of the judge at that mont. Hearing these words, Hua Xiangrong helplessly looked at the crowd, realizing that the evidence in her hand might really not help Xiao Yifei.
Hua Xiangrong gave up resisting, allowing the security to drag her body. Once, for the sake of justice, she beca a police officer, but now it seems that even as a police officer, she couldn’t find the justice she sought.
Thinking of this, Hua Xiangrong glanced towards the director sitting at the plaintiff’s position. At that mont, she seed to start fearing the police position a bit.
"Let go of , I will walk by myself," Hua Xiangrong said in a voice only the security could hear. Hearing this, the two guards stopped dragging her, sensing that Hua Xiangrong had stopped resisting.
However, just as Hua Xiangrong was about to leave, a very authoritative voice rang in everyone’s ears.
"Ahem, Director Li, long ti no see!" Everyone looked toward the voice and saw an elderly gentleman with gray hair and a face full of wrinkles standing at the door. But upon close inspection, there was no trace of old age in him at all. He stood straight, and his voice was loud and clear.
Hearing himself being called, "Director Li" naturally turned his gaze toward the old gentleman. However, the originally calm "Director Li" showed a remarkable expression upon seeing the elder.
"Old Chen, long ti no see," the director forced a smile, responding. Hearing "Director Li" address him this way, the crowd began speculating all kinds of theories about the old gentleman, especially that judge, whose palms started sweating coldly seeing Director Li’s fearful deanor.
At this mont, Xiao Yifei naturally also noticed the old gentleman. Compared to the others, Xiao Yifei was much more familiar with this elder. Wasn’t this the forr general, Old Deng? But Xiao Yifei didn’t expect that the old general would co here.
"Old Deng," Xiao Yifei softly called out. Hearing this, Old Deng waved his hand, walked to Xiao Yifei’s side, and then looked at the judge with an authoritative gaze that brooked no defiance.
Being stared at like this, the already tense judge broke into a cold sweat, his legs almost unable to support him, nearly kneeling to the ground.
"Judge Sir."
"I don’t deserve such a greeting, not at all," as soon as Old Deng spoke, the judge nervously insisted he didn’t deserve it. Indeed, with Old Deng’s status, he really didn’t need to address the judge as "sir".
"Haha, Judge Sir, don’t be nervous. I’ve co mainly for young Xiao, of course, I won’t interfere with your verdict. Whatever it should be, let it be that way," said Old Deng with a chuckle and continued, "However, the judgnt should be fair. I believe Judge Sir understands this very well."
Old Deng’s words were clear to anyone with a brain—the implicit ssage being, "Xiao Yifei is under my protection, think twice before issuing an unfair verdict."
The people most terrified upon hearing this were naturally Director Li and the judge. As soon as Old Deng said this, the expressions on both their faces instantly turned anxious. However, to the previously despairing Hua Xiangrong, these words were like a lifeline, pulling her back from the brink of hopelessness.
Now Hua Xiangrong was sure that if the old gentleman was here, she could definitely bring down "Director Li" with her evidence.
Sure enough, the old gentleman suddenly looked at Hua Xiangrong, smiled, and said, "Young lady, if there’s anything you wanted to say earlier, you can say it now. This is a court; don’t be afraid. You have to believe that justice will always prevail."
"Justice will always prevail!" If you were to ask Hua Xiangrong what the most touching words she ever heard in her life were, she would unhesitatingly tell you this sentence.
At this mont, Hua Xiangrong tightly clenched her phone, looking at Old Deng with eager eyes. This sentence was an imnse encouragent to her right now. In fact, Hua Xiangrong had just decided to resign, no longer wanting to be a police officer. However, because of Old Deng’s words, and the current situation, Hua Xiangrong regained hope.
Hua Xiangrong nodded heavily at Old Deng, then raised the phone she hadn’t raised earlier, and calmly said, "Everyone, what I want to say is all in the video." With that, Hua Xiangrong stepped past the crowd to the public trial’s front and handed over her phone.
The people at the public trial took the phone, gathered around. These people had actually been dissatisfied with Director Li since earlier, but because of his position, no one dared to intervene. Now with soone keeping Director Li in check, they wished more than anything for Xiao Yifei to win the case imdiately.
Xiao Yifei relaxed significantly seeing Hua Yourong’s confident expression. The look on the public trial officials went from confusion to shock as they watched. The video showed two n sitting in a small restaurant. Since the footage was covertly taken, only one person’s face was visible, and that person was Director Li!
After watching the entire video, the public trial officials handed the phone to the judge. With Old Deng present, the judge didn’t dare to act recklessly.
