Who would study psychology unless they had some issues?! Chapter 549 - 538: That’s Actually Your Rebuttal?

Friends who like to play gas and face BOSS battles know that sotis the most troubleso thing is not the BOSS’s seemingly endless health bar, but the elite mobs guarding the BOSS. Those filthy creatures have completely different chanisms from the BOSS and can occasionally catch players off guard with a surprise attack, disrupting the rhythm significantly.

It’s like worker ants guarding the queen, or worker bees protecting the queen bee. The defense attorney serves such a role for Nan Zhubin.

If Nan Zhubin wants to completely eliminate the defendant Wang Zhenhai, he inevitably needs to say so things that can easily provoke a strong reaction. Under normal circumstances, these words would likely earn countless objections from the defense attorney under the claim of "maliciously attacking my client."

Even if the judge really favored Nan Zhubin, he might still be expelled from the court for a careless statent.

Not to ntion that given the special nature of this case, the judge, at least on the surface, has to be impartial.

Nan Zhubin’s thoughts are very clear. Considering this situation, silencing the defense attorney early on is very necessary.

At this stage, Nan Zhubin’s goal, or the purpose of submitting "Supplentary Evidence One," is to first deal with the defense attorney.

At the mont, the results are clearly very good.

Facing Nan Zhubin’s offensive questioning, the defense attorney did not shout "objection." Although the tone of explanation was still strong, Nan Zhubin could see the underlying fear behind their facade.

The attorney even looked at Nan Zhubin anxiously after providing an answer, worried that Nan Zhubin might bluntly accuse them of lying.

Obviously, they had a guilty conscience, and Nan Zhubin enjoyed dealing with such opponents.

However, Nan Zhubin did not press the issue further, understanding the importance of priorities. Even if dealing with the defense attorney, it was not sothing to rush.

Moreover, soone might unexpectedly help Nan Zhubin deal with this defense attorney later.

...

"Does the witness Nan Zhubin need to continue explaining ’Supplentary Evidence One’?"

Seeing the trial fall into silence for a mont, with Nan Zhubin not asking further questions and the defense attorney not refuting, the judge involuntarily resud the proceedings.

Nan Zhubin gave the defense attorney a aningful look, then turned his head and replied, "No, that’s enough."

However, he still stood at the witness stand, showing no intention of returning.

The prosecutor seized the mont to state, "The ’Supplentary Evidence Two’ provided by us also requires further explanation from the witness Nan Zhubin."

The judge nodded: "Let’s begin then."

The defense attorney’s retreat completed the last precondition needed by Nan Zhubin.

Nan Zhubin looked toward Wang Zhenhai.

...

"Based on the early employnt history provided by the defense and combining it with the internal chat records collected from the defendant’s group, the call records between the defendant Wang Zhenhai and the victims, and his behavior during the trial, we assess, according to the diagnostic standards of the ’Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of ntal Disorders,’ that the thought and behavior patterns of the defendant Wang Zhenhai align with traits of ’Sadistic Personality,’ ’Narcissistic Personality Disorder,’ or ’Paranoid Personality Disorder,’ or a combination thereof."

"Therefore, we conclude that Wang Zhenhai, suffering from one or more of the above-ntioned ntal disorders, demonstrated extrely malicious intent in the psychological harm inflicted on our victims."

Nan Zhubin explained, "Concerning specific diagnostic standards, we will apply for a more professional evaluation of the defendant Wang Zhenhai after the trial."

Nan Zhubin did not directly say "conclude" or "diagnose," instead opting for "assess."

This is because providing a direct and possibly presumptive conclusion would undoubtedly spark considerable controversy and severely call Nan Zhubin’s expertise into question.

I didn’t say he actually has these issues, just that his behavior very much aligns with these ntal disorders.

It’s like applying a patch.

Though this statent inherently carries a risk, wherein the defense attorney could have imdiately objected here.

But at this mont, the defense attorney remained quiet.

He was genuinely intimidated by Nan Zhubin. This trial was just work, but if Nan Zhubin further pursued his earlier suspicion about the attorney fees, the trouble after the trial could be even greater.

This trouble wouldn’t be for the defendant, but specifically for him, the defense attorney.

From the perspective of the defense attorney, the allegation made by Nan Zhubin could be easily refuted in the end, so there’s no need to disrupt Nan Zhubin’s speech now. Let him finish talking.

In short, facing Nan Zhubin’s initial offensive, the defense attorney—backed down.

The defense attorney glanced at Nan Zhubin and then at the boss Wang Zhenhai beside him, unsure whether he was comforting himself or Wang Zhenhai by saying:

"Don’t worry, let him speak. Without a hospital diagnosis, he won’t be able to produce substantial evidence. Even if it cos to visiting a hospital later, I can coach you..."

"..." Wang Zhenhai did not respond, nor did he react. He just stared blankly at Nan Zhubin.

The judge said, "Witness Nan Zhubin, please explain these several—"

He glanced at the materials in his hand and read out this string of professional terms: "— ’Narcissistic Personality Disorder,’ ’Sadistic Personality Traits,’ ’Paranoid Personality Disorder.’

Nan Zhubin nodded and explained, "The ’Sadistic Personality Traits’ of defendant Wang Zhenhai is a specialized manifestation of ’Antisocial Personality Disorder.’"

"It involves a pervasive pattern of disregard for and violation of the rights of others. The individual typically demonstrates deceitfulness, impulsivity, aggression, irresponsibility, and lack of remorse. anwhile, Wang Zhenhai’s ’Sadistic Traits’ indicate a persistent behavioral pattern of finding gratification or satisfaction through inflicting physical or psychological pain on others."
