Chapter 40: The Eve of the Trial
Li Xuezhen took the presiding judge's materials and left Su Bai's room, returning to Room 502.
After arriving in the room.
Li Xuezhen looked at the information on the presiding judge and slightly frowned.
This information could be found online, so obtaining it was not difficult.
Regarding this presiding judge.
Li Xuezhen had heard of him, but had never met him.
Because she had previously often heard her teacher scolding him with a tone of disappointment that he had failed to live up to expectations.
She had asked about the reason, and her teacher said that back then there had been a junior fellow disciple who had agreed with her teacher to go together to strive for success in Nandu, yet in the end that junior fellow disciple stayed in Beidu himself and persuaded her teacher to go to Nandu.
This matter had remained a persistent grievance for her teacher, who would scold him every time he thought of it.
Although he scolded him, the relationship between the two was nevertheless extremely good.
Comparing with the information, everything matched.
The person whom her teacher had previously always scolded, yet had an extremely good relationship with, should be precisely the presiding judge in this trial.
The Vice President of the Beidu High Court, Lin Youping.
The key issue was how she should begin asking her teacher about Lin Youping's personality and preferences.
Li Xuezhen slightly frowned.
After careful deliberation, she finally determined how to begin speaking, and then dialed her teacher's phone number.
"Teacher, good afternoon."
"Hm? Xuezhen, why did you suddenly think of calling your teacher, this old man? Did you encounter some difficulty during your internship?"
"Tell me, which law firm is it!"
"If you encounter difficulties, come to your teacher, your teacher will certainly be able to resolve them for you!"
Upon receiving Li Xuezhen's call, Feng Lijian spoke cheerfully with a laugh.
These words were not spoken casually, as the Professor and Vice President of Nandu Law University and a leading authority in the legal field, within Nandu all major top law firms would more or less give him some consideration.
He neither caused trouble nor feared trouble.
Li Xuezhen was his last disciple, and he liked this closed-door disciple very much.
Whoever bullied her was going against him!
Within the legal circle of Nandu, they could directly forget about continuing to remain there!
Hearing Feng Lijian's words, Li Xuezhen let out a long breath.
"Professor Feng, I have not encountered any difficulty during my internship, I just want to ask the teacher for a favor."
A favor?
Feng Lijian waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, what favor? Your teacher will certainly help."
Hearing her teacher agree immediately, Li Xuezhen spoke with a smiling expression.
"It is just that I have a friend who will be interning at the Beidu High Court and will have more contact with President Lin, and she asked me to help her inquire about President Lin's personality and preferences, the President Lin whom the teacher often mentions."
"President Lin of the Beidu High Court? Lin Youping?!"
"Yes yes yes."
Li Xuezhen nodded repeatedly.
"Alright, I know Lin Youping's personality quite well, asking me on behalf of your friend means you asked the right person."
Feng Lijian cheerfully told Li Xuezhen what he knew.
On the other end of the phone, Li Xuezhen carefully recorded everything.
After understanding everything.
Li Xuezhen narrowed her eyes and smiled and said, "Thank you, teacher."
Then with a snap, she hung up the phone.
Looking at the phone that had been hung up, Feng Lijian remained silent for several seconds, feeling a sense of heartache as if the little white rabbit he had raised had been led astray!
As his last disciple, of course he knew where Li Xuezhen was interning!
He also clearly understood Li Xuezhen's desire for independence, so her internship at Baijun law Firm had been tacitly approved by him!
Only
"Ah."
Feng Lijian let out a long sigh.
The little white rabbit he had raised had so quickly followed someone else's wolf cub away!
It was truly heartbreaking!!

Inside Room 502 of the hotel.
After organizing what Feng Lijian had said regarding Lin Youping's personality traits, Li Xuezhen walked out of the room and banged on the door of Room 506.
The door opened.
"Lawyer Su, these are some materials about the presiding judge for this trial, all the materials you requested."
Su Bai took the materials on Lin Youping, and after roughly glancing through them, he already formed a judgment in his mind.
"This time you have rendered meritorious service! After the case concludes, I will specially approve compensation for your internship expenses!"
"After the internship period ends and once you meet the requirements for formal employment, I will convert you to regular status at the earliest opportunity!"
The last sentence was not an empty promise, Su Bai spoke seriously.
Faced with Su Bai's promise, the little rich woman Li Xuezhen, who was not lacking money, excitedly nodded her head vigorously.
"Thank you, Lawyer Su, but I would like to ask Lawyer Su, how much will the compensation for internship expenses be?"
Su Bai: ???
'Wait, you are being serious?!'
You are not lacking money, and at the beginning when the previous owner posted a free recruitment notice you still hurried over immediately.
Asking about compensation for internship expenses, Su Bai really had not thought about this.
However, since Li Xuezhen had asked and he had already said it, it would be inappropriate not to answer.
"Compensation for internship expenses will be issued according to the normal standard for intern lawyers in Nandu!"
"Alright, Lawyer Su."
Li Xuezhen's small face was full of excitement.
She was not lacking money, but the money she earned herself and the money given by her family were not the same concept.
Having internship expenses was naturally a good thing.
This indicated that she had taken the first step toward independence and self reliance!
As the trial time approached.
The Qi Feng case also generated a wave of attention on the internet.
During the first trial of the Qi Feng case, regarding whether it constituted negligent defense or intentional homicide, there had already been considerable discussion on the internet.
After all such situations could occur around anyone at any time.
When facing threats from strangers, if one was slightly careless and caused serious injury to the other party while counterattacking and was then convicted of intentional injury or intentional homicide, that would be disastrous.
Media personnel seized this psychological pain point among the general public.
On the internet, they stirred up a wave of public opinion.
Most of the voices of public opinion were inclined toward Qi Feng.
Because most people placed themselves in the position of being bullied and then counterattacking.
On the eve of the trial.
Under the video with the highest number of views, there was a comment with as many as one hundred thousand likes.
'For the Qi Feng case, the reason our level of attention is so high ultimately lies in the fact that Qi Feng represents the psychology of the general public'
'Who hopes that when they are bullied, they cannot fight back?'
'If fighting back is determined to be mutual combat or intentional injury, then are we supposed to watch helplessly as we ourselves are bullied, and only after being bullied pick up the weapon of the law?'
'Is delayed justice still the justice we want?'
The resonance of the comment was very high.
The number of replies below increased rapidly.
'Well said! What we actually hope for is that the law can protect us, rather than protect those who bully others! The law should punish those people, not the weak!'
'That is right! Is delayed justice still the justice we want? That was very well said! For the parties involved, the harm has already been caused, and nothing can compensate for it!'
'Damn! That was absolutely right! It simply expressed our inner thoughts!'
'Wuwuwu, it is truly moving to tears, the legal definition of legitimate defense is too vague, in general once prosecuted it is directly determined as intentional injury or mutual combat, it is really frustrating!'
At the same time.
Inside Room 506 of the hotel.
Su Bai looked at his own comment being continuously pushed to the top position in the comment section, and the number of likes was still steadily increasing, and a faint smile could not help appearing at the corner of his mouth.
