Chapter 7:
The trial begins.
The previous live broadcast went viral across the internet, even making it to the prime-time news, so its influence was significant.
Therefore, no lawyer was willing to defend Lin Quan this time.
In fact, when some lawyers went to Yu Anxia's house to inquire, they even spoke up for me and criticized Yu Anxia for not distinguishing right from wrong.
This infuriated Yu Anxia to the point that she resented those lawyers too and wrote a little essay online, condemning the lack of justice among today's lawyers.
But this time, there were very few people online supporting her.
She underestimated the degree of people's hatred for human traffickers.
In the end, Lin Quan was sentenced to ten years in prison.
At the moment of the verdict, I embraced my parents and cried in pain.
Yu Anxia was also in tears, but not for me, she was crying for Lin Quan.
She looked at Lin Quan with teary eyes and clenched fists, promising him.
"Brother Lin, it's my family's fault.
Don't worry, I will find a way to get you out of prison early!" As soon as she finished speaking, she was scolded by the jury.
"Are you sick? Your own sister was tortured by this monster for three years, and you still want to save him?" "If you have a bit of conscience, you should care about your sister, not this garbage who should die in prison!" "What do you mean your family is sorry for him? It's him who has wronged your family.
Look at what he has done to your sister!" But who is Yu Anxia? She is the female protagonist.
The female protagonist has her own set of theories.
With her own strength, she argued with the jury, saying that everyone was narrow-minded and unfair! What's even more outrageous is that she said the jury was bribed by my parents.
"I understand now, my parents must have bribed you, that's why you are speaking up for my sister.
Let me tell you, you are assisting evil!" Then, she and Lin Quan were both pelted with rotten eggs by the audience.
I watched her miserable state coldly, and in my heart, I thought about the subsequent plot.
In the original plot, Lin Quan was only sentenced to three years, and with Yu Anxia's help, he was released after serving two years.
After he was released, Yu Anxia "kindly" helped him find a house, stole money from home to support him, and provided him with food and drink.
At that time, I had already developed severe depression, unable to eat, unable to sleep at night, because it was too painful and difficult to endure, I attempted suicide several times.
My parents, seeing me like that, were also heartbroken.
They found a sanatorium for me and hired a professional psychologist to take care of me around the clock.
I finally started to improve a little bit, but Yu Anxia took it upon herself to bring Lin Quan to the sanatorium to visit me.
