Me! A disgraced celebrity! Starting by seeking justice for impoverished students.

The frustration I felt earlier has now subsided.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen looked at the camera with a smile.

For some reason, my mood suddenly improved.

Sure enough, no matter who you are, your mood always improves when you go from being poor to being rich.

"Family, let's continue!"

"You can tell me about any case you have!"

Once the money arrived, my headache and fatigue disappeared, and I even felt like I could handle a few more cases.

Jiang Chen then connected with the next person on the live stream.

"Attorney Jiang..."

This time, when the call connected, the other person's voice sounded a bit muffled; it was a girl.

She seems to be in a bad mood.

Jiang Chen keenly sensed the other person's emotions and frowned slightly.

"Hello, do you need legal aid?"

"Attorney Jiang, my husband killed someone. He was run over by a car."

The other party made a surprising remark, which immediately made Jiang Chen take the matter seriously.

Viewers in the live stream were also surprised.

[Holy crap? Really? After all that frivolous stuff, this sudden serious talk is a bit much!]

[It shouldn't be something abstract, right? The tone on the other end doesn't sound like it!]

[It definitely doesn't look like it; it might actually be true!]

Wow... if you kill someone in a car accident, you should be sentenced to prison, right? You could go for many years!

If someone is killed while driving under the influence, the sentence will be much harsher!

[Tsk tsk tsk... It would be such a pity if he were still young.]

"Madam, I understand how you feel."

"But what I need to figure out now is what kind of car accident your husband was in."

"If it is an ordinary car accident, it violates Article 133 of the Criminal Law, which stipulates that if a major accident occurs due to violation of traffic management regulations, resulting in serious injury or death or significant damage to public or private property, the offender shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or criminal detention."

"Anyone who flees the scene of a traffic accident or commits another particularly egregious offense shall be sentenced to imprisonment for not less than three years but not more than seven years."

"Anyone who causes death by fleeing the scene shall be sentenced to imprisonment for not less than seven years."

"In addition, it violated the Road Traffic Safety Law and also requires civil compensation of a certain amount in accordance with the Civil Code."

After listening to Jiang Chen's explanation, the other party slowly spoke.

"My husband...it was an accident, because those people were bullying me!"

Her tone clearly betrayed her resentment.

Upon hearing the word "bullying," Jiang Chen immediately frowned.

It seems there's more to this story than meets the eye.

"Madam, please recount what happened to me exactly as it happened."

"Don't hide anything!"

If you want Jiang Chen to be the opposing lawyer, the first thing you need to do is to tell the whole truth.

If there is any concealment, then there is a possibility of suspicion.

The other person took a deep breath and began to speak slowly.

"Attorney Jiang, it's like this."

"Yesterday, I was driving home when I encountered three drunk men at the entrance of the underground parking garage in my apartment complex. They saw that I was driving alone and came over to chat with me, asking me to drink with them."

"When I refused, they surrounded my car and wouldn't let me leave!"

"I had no choice but to call my husband upstairs and ask him to come downstairs."

"After my husband came downstairs and chased them away, he drove to the underground parking garage, but unexpectedly, those three people chased after us on their bikes!"

"They smashed my car window and tried to tear me out. My husband tried to drive away to protect me, but one of them just pounced on me!"

"If the brakes hadn't been applied in time, that person would have..."

The other party did not continue speaking.

But everyone already knew what would happen.

The live stream chat exploded instantly.

[Um... if what she said is true, then this is actually quite unfair!]

Yes, they brought trouble upon themselves, and now they're even implicated in someone's death!

[Sigh, what are these sentencing standards? The other party is already dead, so wouldn't it be considered excessive self-defense?]

I think it will be very difficult to claim legitimate self-defense, since there's no precedent for it here!

[If the other party had only sustained minor injuries, there might have been a chance to claim self-defense. Now the person is dead!]

[That's right, we often say, "Respect for the dead is paramount!"]

Yes, respect for the deceased is paramount, so it's difficult to determine legitimate self-defense!

These kinds of cases are indeed difficult to win. If the man can be found guilty of self-defense, it could become a nationally recognized classic case!

Why wasn't there any legitimate self-defense in similar situations before? It's simply too difficult!

"Yes, I understand what happened."

Jiang Chen nodded.

"Now I have a question: what were you doing back then?"

"The vehicle should be equipped with a dashcam; your conversation should have been recorded!"

Her condition at the time was also key to the case.

If she is suspected of implying murder, then the case will be difficult to prosecute.

It is actually advantageous to remain silent.

The other person seemed a little downcast and spoke in a low voice.

"Attorney Jiang, I was pregnant, so I thought it was better to avoid trouble and told my husband to leave as soon as possible."

"I don't want to drink with those people, and I can't drink!"

"They forced me to leave. My husband didn't do it on purpose. He's been detained by the police station now, and I don't know how he's doing..."

The other person became increasingly agitated, and their voice trembled slightly.

Jiang Chen immediately spoke up to comfort the other party.

"Ma'am, please calm down."

"You just said you're pregnant, that's enough."

"If this case is truly as you say, I can fight for your right to self-defense!"

Jiang Chen openly said this in the live broadcast room.

This naturally caused a huge uproar.

Oh? Self-defense?

[That must be difficult, considering how many cases there are, very few where someone is found guilty of self-defense after causing death!]

【Yeah, with information flowing so easily these days, I've never heard of it!】

Is Jiang Chen trying to set a precedent? While her situation evokes sympathy, legitimate self-defense is truly difficult!

Wait a minute... you seem to have overlooked a detail: she's pregnant!

Shouldn't we show more tolerance towards pregnant women who suffer like this?

[Hiss...the buffs are indeed stacked high enough, but I still have my doubts!]

Jiang Chen argued that it was self-defense not only because of what the other party had experienced.

He also vividly recalled her husband's situation at the time.

Three drunk men were harassing his pregnant wife.

If it's just me alone, I can still argue with the other person.

But with his pregnant wife by his side, he couldn't afford to have a conflict with her.

On one hand, there's my own personal safety; on the other hand, there's the personal safety of my wife and children!

He was squeezed into that crevice.

The only option is for the happiest to yield.

But the other party wouldn't let it go.

Who could remain absolutely calm in this situation?
