Chapter 174: Court Confrontation
Upon hearing this, several people immediately abandoned the emperor and his entourage and ran to pick up Jiang Wan, which made the emperor angry again.
"Wanwan, how do you feel today? Are you feeling unwell? Don't be nervous. It doesn't matter if you lose. We are here for you."
Jiang Wan looked at the concerned eyes around him, smiled and nodded: "I'm not nervous, I'm in good condition now, I'm not feeling uncomfortable, don't worry, I won't force it."
To be honest, Jiang Wan didn't really care about the outcome of today's relationship. The reason she came here was because she had other things to do.
"By the way, Wanwan, today's lawsuit will be broadcast live in its entirety for everyone in the galaxy to see. You..."
Bai Zhuo was about to say something but stopped himself. Those people were truly despicable. They had submitted an application for a live public trial of the case this morning, less than two hours before the trial began, catching them off guard.
Jiang Wan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Live broadcast? Did he want to use the power of public opinion to convict Yin Yi?
Unfortunately, it was not Yin Yi who came today.
......
When the court opened, the judge frowned in displeasure when he saw that the person sitting in the dock was a pregnant female.
"I remember that Admiral Yin Yi should be in the dock today. Why didn't Admiral Yin Yi come, and instead asked his pregnant partner to come?"
"Your Honor, don't you know that my partner Yin Yi is still unconscious because he blocked a knife for me and can't come at all, so I am here to appear in court on his behalf."
Jiang Wan answered the judge's question and found it funny at the same time. Doesn't this judge usually pay attention to online news? They had mentioned online that Yin Yi was still unconscious.
If it's not indifference, then it's intentional.
But without giving Jiang Wan much time to think, the judge began to ask questions.
Hei Yu cried in court, saying that his female self had been immersed in grief due to the miscarriage of her child, which caused her to be in poor health. That was why he became excited when he saw the pregnant Jiang Wan and acted inappropriately on impulse.
But Meiya definitely didn't mean it, but Yin Yi kicked a female so hard that she was seriously injured. She was treated in the hospital's medical cabin for several days before she survived, but she is still recuperating in the hospital.
I hope the court will convict Yin Yi of malicious harm to females, arrest him, put him in jail, and sentence him to death.
"Defendant's partner, do you have any objection to the plaintiff's request?"
The judge turned to look at Jiang Wan and asked softly.
"of course."
Jiang Wan sneered and said, "I believe everyone here has seen the video of the incident.
The Seventh Prince said that Lady Meiya acted on impulse. So, I would like to ask everyone, if it was really an impulse, why did she wear the uniform of a hospital nurse, hide a dagger on her body in advance, and smear the latest toxin on the dagger.
Doctor Lin Yue once told me that this toxin was newly researched and had been locked in the hospital director's office. The director had left Imperial Star a few days before the incident. I would like to ask, how did Meiya get this toxin? "
As he spoke, Jiang Wan took out the dagger that he had put away at that time, and also handed over Yin Yi's medical examination report when he was in the hospital to the judge.
"So, based on this, I have reason to suspect that Meiya was not acting on impulse as the Seventh Prince said. I think she had it planned all along and chose to do it when I went to the hospital for a prenatal checkup.
Yin Yi kicked her in desperation just to protect me.
People cannot control their reflexive actions when they are in an emergency. What's more, as far as I know, although Yin Yi's kick against Meiya caused her some injuries, the medical cabin has completely healed her injuries. The reason why she is still living in the hospital is because they think Meiya has not yet gotten over the sadness of miscarriage, so she continues to recuperate in the hospital. This has nothing to do with Yin Yi's kick.
Everything I said is based on facts. If you don’t believe me, you can summon Dr. Lin Yue from the First Hospital to testify.”
Jiang Wan originally thought that the evidence he submitted was sufficient and there were witnesses. No matter what, the court would not do as Hei Yu and the others wanted and convict Yin Yi of a serious crime and not hold Meiya accountable.
However, no one expected that the Seventh Prince would be so shameless as to directly use the latest policy to apply for a not guilty defense for Miya.
"Mr. Jiang Wan, the medical report also said that Admiral Yin Yi is not in danger of death, he is just in a temporary coma, and he will wake up one day. Doesn't this mean that Meiya's behavior did not cause serious consequences? Moreover, the empire's policy also states that females are innocent in doing anything.
On the contrary, Yin Yi, as an orc with high combat power, actually used such a heavy hand on a weak female. This is clearly intended to kill Meiya. Shouldn't he be arrested?"
"Can't we hold her accountable if there are no serious consequences?"
Jiang Wan asked back sternly, "Anyone with eyes can see that she came straight at me at first. In that situation, if Yin Yi hadn't blocked it for me, I would have been injured regardless of whether I could dodge it or not. It would also be a question whether I could keep the baby in my belly. Isn't that enough?
Yin Yi stopped her from committing the crime, but was stabbed by her and has been in a coma ever since. Isn't this serious?
Or does it mean that she had to stab me in the stomach and kill me twice, for that to be considered serious? If that is the case, do you still insist that she is innocent? "
Who knows, the Seventh Prince still didn't care: "Aren't you okay? Lord Jiang Wan, forgive me for being blunt, what you said is just your own assumption. Assuming something that doesn't exist, this... doesn't seem appropriate. In fact, aren't you intact now? So Meiya didn't cause any serious consequences, right?
As for the poison you mentioned, Miya has already said that she just picked up a dagger by accident and didn't know that it was contaminated with poison. She was surprised for a long time when she heard it.
So I think that the director of the First Hospital should be held responsible for the poison incident. How could the poison he locked in his office be smeared on a dagger and even found by Miya?"
Hei Yu's confusing right and wrong remarks really opened Jiang Wan's eyes.
