What's wrong with this lawyer?!

```

"Really want to eat melon, is there a full video?"

It turned out that what young people consider winning and losing was different from the usual sense; what mattered was who cracked first.

It's just a pity, if Lawyer Tang had added three more words behind it: 'He's panicking,' the effect would have been even better.

Not to mention Chen Jiaquan, who had returned to his office and smashed his phone again, Old Tang calmly waited for the court session.

On May 15, the case went to court. There was no dispute about the facts of the case or the application of the law; the point of contention was that everyone wanted Old Tang to forgive the other party.

However, despite repeated persuasion from the judge, the defendant, and the defendant's defense attorney, Old Tang remained unmoved.

"Lawyer Tang, you're a lawyer too. Let's put ourselves in each other's shoes. He's facing sentencing just for saying a few things about you on the internet. Even if it's a suspended sentence, his license is definitely going to be revoked!"

"Do you think that's fair? If he gets sentenced, Zheng's life is ruined!"

The head of the law firm said.

Old Tang spoke up, "You're a lawyer; can you just reduce the charge of libel to saying a few things? The switching of concepts is quite severe."

"And by the way, am I the one who ruined his life? Who committed the act of libel, me? As a lawyer, trained in law, doesn't he know that committing a crime will result in the revocation of his license?"

"He knew it was like this, but he was hoping that no one would take this matter seriously, right? Before me, was this the only time he had slandered someone?"

That's impossible. Making careless remarks on the internet, especially with such clear fabrications, this kind of habit doesn't develop overnight.

"Alright, Judgment Chief, I don't agree to mediation. The law doesn't require that criminal complaints must go through mediation, right? Just please make a judgment according to the law."

The Judgment Chief, after a long look, could only announce a recess.

Consequently, Zheng's family members all gathered around the plaintiff's table, starting to babble incessantly.

Some were pleading, some were threatening, and others were discussing the law.

Then... Old Tang turned off his hearing, and the world suddenly became tranquil.

It turns out, this skill was surprisingly effective. I used to think it was useless, but now it seems I just didn't know how to use it properly.

No matter how daring Zheng's family was, they wouldn't dare to start a fight in the courtroom.

Now, with no response from the other side, they didn't know what to do.

After a good while, the Judgment Chief came back and asked, "The plaintiff confirms you don't want to mediate, right?"

Old Tang responded as if he had just woken up from a nap, "I confirm I don't want to mediate."

Immediately, the Judgment Chief, without any further hesitation, began to read the sentence.

"The sentence is as follows: the defendant, Zheng Baolin, guilty of libel, is sentenced to six months of detention!"

With additional civil compensation of thirty thousand yuan, and a public apology on the internet to eliminate the impact!

Old Tang thought the sentencing was acceptable. If it had been a fixed-term imprisonment, it likely would have been suspended, but detention was an actual imprisonment, even though lighter than fixed-term imprisonment.

Zheng did not appeal. As a lawyer, he was very clear that this sentence was already light; an appeal would most likely not change the outcome.

As for Old Tang, he continued on to Lüzhou without stopping.

To be honest, he was more interested in the "idle cloud and wild crane" he had never met.

However, as soon as he arrived in Lüzhou, Old Tang received a call from a leader of the Bright District Judicial Bureau.

"Labor Bureau, are you saying that the province has decided to heavily promote my rights protection experience?"

"Yes, Lawyer Tang. Currently, there are indeed many acts of internet infringement and crimes, but many people online do not know how to protect their rights, and some don't even realize that these behaviors are illegal or even criminal," the leader on the phone said.

"So, we are taking advantage of your momentum to carry out a legal education campaign. Of course, we also want to do it soon before other provinces start doing it..."

Old Tang naturally agreed. Setting everything else aside, the leadership of the judicial department in Bright District had indeed taken good care of him, withstood all the pressure, and hadn't affected him in any way.

So, why not do it? Besides, he had a mission this time; what a thrill!

After a day's rest in Lüzhou, Old Tang met with Jin Xintian and his parents.

Ignoring the continuous appeals of the parents, Old Tang focused on the young man across from him and said, "I'm very curious about one thing; why do you hate me so much?"

"I did help you at one point, so why is that?"

Jin Xintian, with his head lowered, didn't dare to look up. Although he had fantasized many times about facing Tang Fangjing boldly, this meeting was nothing like he had imagined.
