Wang Qing shook her head, "I don’t think the defense lawyer’s point of view is correct. Li Long only chased these three people; doesn’t that prove it’s a vendetta? Doesn’t that prove Li Long possesses self-awareness? If he didn’t have self-awareness, should Li Long have gone after others?"
Gu Chen spoke up, "Then I must bring up another case here."
"First, we need to clarify a point: when a person with a ntal illness has an episode, they have no self-awareness, they don’t know what they’re doing, and their actions are entirely instinctual."
"There’s a kind of bull, called the Spanish fighting bull, which will attack the red cloth waved by the matador."
"Would you say this bull possesses human-like self-awareness?"
"This bull lacks self-awareness, yet it consistently attacks the person holding the red cloth."
"Such bulls rarely attack indiscriminately; most of the ti, they keep attacking the person with the red cloth."
"Similarly, Li Long had no self-awareness at the ti; the people he attacked were only like the matador’s red cloth to him."
"Precisely because Li Long lacked self-awareness, he manically chased those three people and dismissed everyone else."
Gu Chen continued, "If Li Long wasn’t having a ntal health crisis and did possess self-awareness, he wouldn’t only kill Lu Jun, Lu Wang, and Lu Daniu."
"For Li Long, if he had self-awareness, he’d know that after committing murder, he’d definitely be sentenced to death, especially after killing three people; it’s inevitable he’d face the death penalty."
"For Li Long, killing three people or the entire Lu Family makes no difference; it was nightti, and there were at least a dozen people in the Lu Family... yet Li Long only killed these three."
"If Li Long had self-awareness at the ti, these wouldn’t be the three he’d kill; you must realize that soone who plans ticulously and has a death wish could likely kill everyone."
"If Li Long was truly rational, he might have done unimaginably worse things, and the consequences would have been even more severe."
"On the contrary, the fact that Li Long’s targets were consistently those three people... just shows he had no self-awareness at all, and all he rembered was the nightmare from his childhood."
"That concludes my statent."
Gu Chen finished speaking.
This ti, even the prosecutor couldn’t figure out how to refute.
The prosecutor felt sothing was off.
But couldn’t argue against Gu Chen.
She had always believed Li Long’s targets being those three people indicated Li Long had self-awareness.
Instead, Gu Chen’s explanation left the prosecutor sowhat perplexed.
How do you defend against that?
Because Gu Chen made flawless points.
Li Long was out for revenge, not playing house.
Killing three people versus killing many others, what’s the difference?
Isn’t it all the death penalty?
If that’s the case, why not let the perpetrator bear more suffering?
Li Long could’ve done away with the entire family; he was certainly capable.
Because for a murderer, killing three people or five, there’s no difference.
The netizens in the live stream were all applauding.
[Wow, Lawyer Gu’s defense angle.]
[Aweso... there’s hope for this case.]
[Not sure how it will be judged, but I now truly understand how strong Lawyer Gu is in court.]
[This really is an insane trial, the prosecutor doesn’t know what to say.]
[There’s real hope for this case; it all depends on how the court will judge.]
Netizens were all comnting excitedly.
Prosecutor Wang Qing had already fallen silent.
She had said all she could; next, it would depend on the court’s judgnt.
Judge Xu Yang looked over at Li Long and said, "Does the defendant have anything to say?"
At this mont, Li Long spoke.
Li Long said, "Gu Chen is talking nonsense! I’m not so ntal case; I have awareness! Who said I’m not aware? Who said I’m ntally ill? I want to avenge my mom, I just want to kill these three people, what’s wrong? I have no faults! I’m just going to kill them! Even if I did it again, I’d still kill them! I’ve always felt I’m not wrong! I’m perfectly clear-headed!!"
"Now I have finally spoken out; I’m extrely clear! Seeing these three people alive while my mom is gone is upsetting; I’m just going to find them!! They must die!!!"
"What my lawyer said is nonsense!"
"I just want to kill them!! Nobody can stop !!"
"I don’t think what I did was wrong; what’s wrong with killing them? Hmm?"
"That’s all I have to say; anyways, I confess, you might as well sentence to death, it’s no big deal, I’ll be able to see my mom!"
Li Long finished speaking and burst into laughter.
The joy of revenge...
He finally avenged!
He also left money for his dad.
He had no regrets left.
Death penalty?
Li Long wasn’t afraid of the death penalty in the slightest.
After the death penalty, he might even see his mom again.
As for fear? What’s there to fear about the death penalty?
He said it aloud so boldly in court; no one could do anything.
Prosecutor Wang Qing seized the opportunity, speaking, "Judge, the defendant has confessed to all his cris, and also stated he was out for revenge, proving his motives were clear, plans were detailed, and he was not having an episode at the ti; he has completely admitted to wanting to avenge his mother, which is intentional murder, not unconscious action as the defense lawyer argued... it’s all fake! Even the defendant admits it, the defense lawyer’s argunt is laughable."
Li Long nodded, "Yes, I admit it, I just want revenge, haha, what’s wrong, you can sentence to death! It’s no problem!"
After Li Long spoke, the courtroom fell into complete silence.
Li Long had confessed everything...
He directly pleaded guilty.
No matter how well Gu Chen laid the groundwork, it was all in vain.
Gu Chen argued Li Long was ntally ill and acted unconsciously.
If Li Long hadn’t said anything, the case would likely end in acquittal.
But those last words from Li Long turned a potential acquittal into a death sentence!
It’s over...
Everything is over.
Xia Ranran shook her head, sighing, "It’s over, Li Long insisted on confessing, avoiding the death penalty is difficult now; Gu Chen was about to win the trial, but Li Long ca out and insisted on pleading guilty; what can be done now?"
Gao Yong was also frustrated, "This... Gu Chen said it all nicely, the trial was almost won; is Li Long seeking death? What he said was seized upon by the prosecutor; how does one argue for acquittal now? He’ll end up being sentenced to death."
After all, the case had already happened.
There’s no way to go back and see if Li Long possessed clear awareness at the ti, whether he had a ntal episode...
These conclusions can only be drawn from subsequent speculation and inference.
Gu Chen’s analysis and deduction were outstanding, leaving the prosecutor speechless.
The trial that was about to be won... due to Li Long’s words, it all crumbled.
The crux of the case is whether Li Long had self-awareness and whether he had a ntal episode when committing the cri.
ntal illness episodes often lead to a lack of awareness, which is normal.
Thus, the law stipulates that if a ntally ill person has an episode, murder is not criminally liable.
Because the ntally ill do not know what they’re doing.
But Li Long kept admitting...
Directly delivering the final blow.
What can anyone do?
No matter how well Gu Chen defended, it’s all futile now.
Judge Xu Yang made up his mind.
This case could soon be ruled upon!
Now that the defendant has said so... the case is almost at its end.
The netizens watching the live stream were also frustrated.
What was Li Long doing?
Pure side-effect here!!
At this mont...
Gu Chen glanced at Li Long, not anxious in the least.
Would he really lose a trial?
Gu Chen stood up directly and said, "Judge, I have one final statent to make."
