"It was only after I was deceived that I realized it wasn't just that fellow soldier who used AI face-swapping to chat with me; other comrades were also deceived. That lawyer was hired by a comrade from a well-off family."
"He told me... the group that deceived me had been arrested and the trial was about to begin. He hoped... that I could make some other appeals..."
At this point, the visitor's tone became hesitant: "The lawyer also told me... he had contacted you?"
Nan Zhubin nodded calmly: "That's correct. But this is your issue. I told him that if anything is needed, you would have to talk to me yourself."
The visitor seemed relieved, then took a deep breath.
[Increased swallowing, shoulders hunched inward.]
[Frequent finger movements, pursed lips, furrowed brows.]
[It's nervousness and withdrawal, but not intense.]
Nan Zhubin assessed the importance of this matter in the visitor's mind.
