Afternoon, the lunch break ended.
The courtroom became as crowded as it had been in the morning.
Everyone entered the courtroom in succession, both the plaintiff and the defense took their seats, and everyone was in place.
Following the court guard's announcement, Judge Liu entered the courtroom.
He looked around to ensure that the three key people, Zhang Wei, Tie Ruyun, and Xu Suyun, were present.
Right, everyone's here.
As for the others, they weren't important!
He glanced again, the jury was also in place.
3 men and 9 women, with females significantly outnumbering the males.
"I hope this trial can finish early and that the jury can maintain fairness and impartiality,"
The young Judge Liu glanced at the plaintiff and defense seats and murmured in his heart, "Of course, what I hope most is that these two can refrain from using any fancy tricks. I'm afraid my heart can't take it."
After forcing himself not to think further, Judge Liu then banged the gavel.
