Chapter 1382 Feigning Madness
Chapter 1382 Feigning Madness
Ding Hai suddenly went berserk. He spread his arms, looked up at the sky, and shouted loudly.
"Whether I ascend to heaven or descend to hell is up to God. God is the greatest, after all..."
A hint of a smile flashed in Chen Mingren's eyes as he slowly stood up and spoke.
"Your Honor, my client has been repenting all day long while in detention, which has led to the development of a mental disorder. This is the assessment given to him by a psychiatrist at Stanley Prison."
Ding Hai is now a mental patient and is no longer able to fulfill his legal responsibilities.
Everyone was watching Ding Xie, who was facing a railing, arms outstretched, shouting.
"Shall we fly together? Let's fly up to the blue sky and see the white clouds, let the white clouds wash away my sins, let's jump into the sea together, let the sea cleanse my body of filth..."
Meng Qi slammed his hand on the table and stood up.
"Nonsense! How could such a villain become mentally ill? Chen Mingren, is this the plan you came up with to exonerate him?"
Chen Mingren spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Attorney Meng, please be more careful with your words. What do you mean by 'a way to get out of trouble'? Ding Hai has suffered such a huge shock that he has developed a mental disorder. Shouldn't that be the case? Besides, we have a medical report from the Stanley Prison doctor here, which has legal effect."
So my client isn't going to prison, but to Aoyama Mental Hospital.
Meng Qi knew that he had underestimated the ugliness of human nature, and he roared at Chen Mingren.
“I question this assessment and request that it be conducted by a professional institution.”
Justice Luna sighed inwardly. Meng Qi was still as emotional as ever. This wouldn't defeat a rogue lawyer. She tapped her gavel.
"Given that the prosecution has objections to this psychiatric evaluation, the court hereby adjourns temporarily. An authoritative institution will conduct a psychiatric evaluation on Ding Hai in three days. The court is now adjourned."
The judge and jury left the courtroom, and the people in the gallery also began to leave.
When Ding Hai was taken away, he was still acting crazy and deranged. Meng Qi and his assistant were sorting through case files with their heads down when Chen Mingren walked over arrogantly.
"Attorney Meng, don't be too sad. Losing to me, Chen Mingren, is not a shameful thing. If you ever go hungry, you can come to our Celebrity Law Firm. We give our ordinary lawyers pretty good boxed lunches."
After saying that, he laughed heartily and walked out of the courtroom. Meng Qi looked up and stared blankly at the sign in the middle of the courtroom, which was a scale, symbolizing fairness. His eyes grew more and more determined, and he said loudly.
"The law is just; only people are unjust. From now on, I want to be the one who controls these people."
Suddenly, applause broke out. Meng Qi and his assistant turned around and saw a young man leaning against the entrance of the gallery. He smiled, clapped, gave Meng Qi a thumbs up, and then turned and left. He called out as he stepped out of the entrance.
"Come on!"
Meng Qi and his assistant looked at each other, and Meng Qi muttered something to himself.
Who is this young man?
The assistant stared blankly at the entrance, touched her flushed face, and whispered.
"So handsome..."
……
Da Bao left the courtroom, looked back, and Xiao Dao opened the car door. Da Bao got in, the car started, and slid into the middle of the road.
Da Bao closed his eyes, took the special cigarette Xiao Dao handed him, and his mind went through the events that had happened in court, especially Meng Qi's last sentence.
He couldn't help but laugh and said something to Xiaodao.
“Send a telegram to Arthur, ordering the most authoritative psychiatrist in London to come to Hong Kong immediately.”
"Yes, Master."
"Mingyue went to university to register today, right? Let's pick her up on our way."
The car changed direction and headed towards the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
……
The Chinese University of Hong Kong was established in 1949 by combining three colleges. It has nurtured many famous people, especially the Department of Finance, which has dominated half of the university's academic landscape for the next thirty years.
Zuo Mingyue was a transfer student who came to this school, but she wasn't there for the so-called degree. She simply wanted to learn some skills to help her husband manage the bank and financial investment company.
Zuo Mingyue's beauty has always been universally appealing. Since she sat in the finance department classroom, she had received fifteen love letters in less than two hours, which annoyed Zuo Mingyue to no end.
The vast majority of students in the finance department are children of wealthy families in Hong Kong. Studying this is a perfect fit for them, and they can also study abroad to further their education. The finance department is also full of cliques.
The new generation was spearheaded by Long Huawen, the youngest son of the chairman of the Longding Group, surrounded by a dozen or so nouveau riche children. These families lacked any real social standing and were looked down upon by the scions of established families.
The aristocratic faction also split into two groups: one led by Sir Ho Sai-ming, grandson of Justice of the Peace Ho, and the other led by Li Yongliang, the second son of the president of Changmao Group.
Zuo Mingyue was new to the area and had no idea about the shady dealings involved. What she didn't know was that she had caught the eye of the leaders of all three factions.
The saying "beautiful women bring disaster" is absolutely true. The disasters caused by beautiful women in history are about to erupt in the Department of Finance at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
He Shiming's eyes hadn't left Zuo Mingyue since she entered, seemingly oblivious even to her bodyguard, Afeng. He Shiming noticed that the two love letters he had delivered had been thrown into the trash by Zuo Mingyue.
He Shiming was a little embarrassed and angry. He put his arms on the chair, spat out the chewing gum in his mouth, stood up, smoothed his hair, struck what he thought was a very handsome pose, and swaggered toward Zuo Mingyue with a few rich kids.
Zuo Mingyue had a weak foundation in reading, so she struggled to read the textbook. She pounded her head and continued reading in great annoyance.
Suddenly, a fragrant breeze wafted over. Zuo Mingyue, accustomed to the scent of Da Bao, as well as her daughter and younger sister, found this perfume extremely repulsive.
Without turning her head, she beckoned with her finger, and Ah Feng, understanding, leaped up.
He Shiming had just leaned against the table and said something.
"Hi..."
Ah Feng grabbed him by the collar and threw him away forcefully. He Shiming slammed heavily onto the podium, twisting his neck and breaking several bones in his body.
His henchmen turned around in astonishment, only to see their leader hunched over the podium, his hands and feet twitching uncontrollably.
The entire classroom fell silent, even the professor who had just entered was stunned.
Zuo Mingyue angrily grabbed her book, stood up, and strode to the podium with Ah Feng. She kicked He Shiming hard in the face, cursed him as an idiot, and left the classroom. The professor swallowed hard, not daring to stop her.
The leaders of the other two factions were completely dumbfounded. What happened? What was going on? It seemed that He Shiming hadn't even said a word before being beaten like this...
