Chapter 432: Eat whatever you want to eat lately

Lawyer Fang has always been a man of his word.

Perhaps the final outcome of these two cases will only be a small amount of compensation and an apology, but this is an excellent way to put his philosophy into practice.

Therefore, the day after signing the contract, Lawyer Fang began his actions without a moment's delay.

The aforementioned act of Infringement of Reputation Rights goes without saying; having the video from Zhou Yi's Dash Cam is enough, as there were so many people surrounding them at the time.

The key now is how to prove that the parking time was extended due to the other party's delay, how long it was extended, and how the money should be calculated.

This point is actually not difficult to handle; by checking the Dash Cam, the time can be counted as starting when Zhou Yi finished circling without finding a spot, and ending when everyone left.

The calculation for parking fees is also fixed: three yuan per half hour.

This is also an application of the New Civil Code; the Civil Code not only contains various specific regulations but also possesses many principles.

For example, the principle of voluntariness, the principle of fairness and good faith, and so on.

Likewise, Article 8 of the Civil Code clearly stipulates that civil acts must not violate the law, and it is followed by a sentence: they must not violate public order and good customs.

And in everyone's common perception, a parking spot only counts when the car arrives first, so it is wrong for you to stand there and occupy it.

Does the other party's act of "Human Parking Spot Occupation" count as a civil act? Of course it does, and what Lawyer Fang wants to do, besides demanding compensation for those few yuan, is to have the Court determine one thing: that the act of Human Parking Spot Occupation is invalid!

This is the main point of what Lawyer Fang wants to do!

To be honest, for a simple compensation of a few yuan, there is a high probability that you would just file the case and then go straight to Mediation; the Court wouldn't be so idle as to hold a special hearing just for your few yuan.

That would be a waste of judicial resources.

But adding this claim makes it different; currently, there is no completely definitive characterization of the act of "Human Parking Spot Occupation."

And if the Court can determine that this act is invalid and provide a specific statement, then that would be great; this is equivalent to establishing a precedent for similar acts in the future!

Although we are not a case-law country, precedents still have a certain reference value in practice.

As Lawyer Fang puts it, even if those Keyboard Warriors argue with people in the future, they can take out the relevant judgment to retort, so they won't be left with nothing to say—this is where the significance lies!

Once decided, he acted; various materials began to be collected. The case itself was really simple, and Lawyer Fang finished it quickly, then immediately brought the relevant evidence to the Guangming District Court.

A bald man walked into the Case Filing Hall, and others cast side-glances.

The country is currently vigorously promoting online Case Filing, but people like Lawyer Fang still prefer to go in person.

"Face-to-face conversation"—this is not just something many salespeople need to do; lawyers need to do this too.

Face-to-face conversation and conversation across a computer screen are two different feelings.

In any case, Lawyer Fang feels that retorting people that way lacks punch.

"Teacher Fang is here again, what case is it this time?" The young lady working inside was very happy; so what if Teacher Fang has less hair? He has charisma.

"Just two simple cases, take a look."

As he spoke, two Indictments were handed over.

Needless to say, the young lady working there was not at all surprised to see that the Plaintiff on the Indictment was Zhou Yi. Now, let alone the Guangming District Court, even the higher courts and the Procuratorate know that these two are practically inseparable.

As the saying goes, wherever Zhou Yi is, a great lawyer is sure to follow...

Looking at them, the young lady working there raised her head; she wanted to complain, but didn't know how to put it.

The one about the Right of Reputation was fine; Lawyer Fang had done too many of those before, it was very smooth, with almost no friction.

But the one after that... after seeing the claim, the young lady felt her scalp tingle. Do you really think our judges aren't bald enough?

Although being bald has a unique charm... thought the young lady, whose aesthetic sense had already gone astray.

As a result, Lawyer Fang in front of her chuckled, as if he had already guessed her thoughts, and said: "Look at the second claim."

The second claim—there were actually two claims! The young lady hurriedly looked at the second one. At first, she was scratching her head, but gradually she became serious.

To a layman, this claim might look like taking off one's pants to fart, but as a staff member of the Case Filing Hall, she was naturally not a layman.

This claim is a bit unusual!

Because currently, whether this kind of behavior is wrong is actually a matter of great controversy in the legal field and in many places!

There are two core viewpoints: First, why does it only count when the car arrives? The person also wasted their own time to occupy it, so why can't it count as queuing!

Second, people are more important than cars!

Therefore, if this is to be judged, it will be very troublesome...

One can only say that Lawyer Fang is worthy of his name; he truly never does anything useless.

The Form Review was quick, and before long, he was notified that the case could be filed. Lawyer Fang left the Court leisurely with his bag slung over his shoulder; he was looking forward to seeing if anyone would come out to argue this issue!

For Dong Shuqin, the matter of occupying the parking spot had long been cast to the back of her mind.

She didn't take the other party's threat to sue her to heart at all. So what if I scolded you? If you go to sue, the Court probably won't even listen.

"Morning, Sister Dong!"

Entering the Company, someone greeted her, and Dong Shuqin glanced casually before replying:

"Morning. How is the plan from yesterday coming along? Not finished yet? Didn't I tell you to do it? I'll say this once: if you can do it, do it; if you can't, get out!"

She is a Department Manager at this Company, usually known in the Company for her strong work ethic. In the words of her subordinates, she is a ghost who acts as a tiger's accomplice.

She would often berate old Employees, and she would curse very nastily at that.

After reprimanding several Employees in a row, she entered her office with satisfaction.

The Employees outside dared to be angry but dared not speak. In the current work environment, honestly, once you are a bit older, you have no thoughts of quitting at all.

After being busy for a while, a text message came to her phone, notifying her that she had a package. Dong Shuqin went downstairs to pick it up; she didn't feel it was strange.

Women, after all, often forget what they have bought online... don't ask me how I know, sigh.

Because there were no scissors in her office, she took scissors from the office area outside to open the package. She didn't pay attention to who sent it; it seemed to have the word "Law" on it.

A sycophant nearby already came up and said: "Sister Dong, you sit down, I'll open it for you."

That Employee was very nimble and quickly opened the package, and then the contents were revealed: a Court Summons from the Guangming District Court.

What's going on? Some of the Employees nearby also saw it. Dong the Skin-Flayer received a Court Summons?

Dong Shuqin was even more bewildered; she racked her brains but couldn't figure out who on earth had sued her.

The sycophants nearby didn't know what to say either, standing there with awkward expressions on their faces.

Dong Shuqin hurriedly hugged the items into her office; after reading the two Summons, she only felt a surge of rage rush straight to her head!

You actually sued me just because of such a trivial matter?

The key was that she had opened the package in front of so many people earlier, letting everyone know she had been sued, and she had lost all face in front of her subordinates.

She looked at the name on the Indictment, Zhou Yi, right? Fine, you just wait!

She took out her phone, opened Zhalang, and quickly posted an article.

"Come, come, everyone, take a look! Just because of such a tiny, pathetic matter, someone actually sued me!"

The photo attached was a photo of the Indictment and the Summons.

Then, Dong Shuqin began to embellish the description of the previous scene.

Sometimes, when you think about it, there really is no way around this Small Essay business, because when writing a Small Essay, one always omits one's own mistakes while magnifying the other party's problems.

This is human nature; many of us do the same when recounting our past experiences in daily life, omitting the bad things and only speaking of the good.

In Dong Shuqin's version, she was very innocent because parking spaces were tight there, so she had specifically gone early to help occupy a parking space, but as a result, the other party started cursing at her the moment they came up!

"They said I was shameless for Human Parking Spot Occupation and said if I didn't move away they would hit me with their car, so I definitely wasn't going to indulge them; I just said I was standing there, let's see who could do anything to me!"

Mixing truth and lies together, in any case, she was definitely the one who had been wronged, while the other party was the one who was unreasonable.

Really, after writing this stuff, even she herself felt, holy crap, it turns out I was so deeply wronged...

"Later the police came, and then everyone dispersed. I really didn't expect that the other party would actually keep biting and not let go, going to the Court to sue me. Everyone, come and judge this for me!"

Then she posted it, simultaneously posting it to Zhalang and the Big Green Book, and then she ignored it.

Of course, she did not know that after this incident happened, many people had already posted some videos online.

"Human Parking Spot Occupation" is in itself an extremely repulsive issue; under such circumstances, it was almost universally condemned the moment it was posted.

"Holy crap, this woman keeps saying 'this is my parking space' with her mouth, how can she even say that? It's a public resource; just because she's standing there, it's hers?"

"The Earth under my feet is also a public resource; I've been standing on it for over twenty years, and I wouldn't dare say it's mine..."

"Human Parking Spot Occupation is wrong to begin with; what are you supposed to do for those people who waited for a long time while driving!"

Of course, opposing opinions soon appeared, and this portion of opinions was concentrated in places like Zhihu.

"I think those who believe Human Parking Spot Occupation is wrong are all obsessed. Aren't people more advanced than cars? People sacrificed their own time to occupy a parking space, why should they be called wrong? Is there any law that says people aren't allowed to occupy parking spaces?"

With this, they immediately started arguing incessantly... both sides stuck to their own views.

At the same time, the internet celebrity "A Mei" and her team, far away in Modu, were thinking about how to take the sales of their weight loss products to the next level.

Their team's weight loss products were no longer just Weight Loss Candy and Weight Loss Capsule; they had also launched many so-called weight loss products, and the profits were shockingly large.

Regarding whether the weight loss products sold had any problems, A Mei did not think there were any problems.

Because many people were selling these, and she herself had eaten them and felt they were effective before becoming an agent to sell them.

In that case, they needed greater traffic, especially traffic that could make women pay attention!

Why? Because for the same weight loss medicine, women are the ones who buy more.

Their mouths are full of 'sisters', but their hearts are all about business...

Then, her team discovered this news.

At a glance, the hot topic was right there.

A woman and a man had a dispute and she was cursed at, and it was because this woman was helping her friend with Human Parking Spot Occupation.

All the elements of a hot topic were gathered!

So the key was which side to stand on; A Mei's team didn't need to hesitate to stand on the side of the parking space occupier.

Because ghg!

"I'm very curious, why do many people want to engage in Internet Violence against that girl? She was just thinking about helping a friend with Human Parking Spot Occupation, also out of good intentions, so why must she yield just because the other party drove in?"

"Just because the other party is a man?"

"Even according to the principle of first come, first served, that young lady was there first, why must she yield just because the other party told her to!"

A Mei's current influence wasn't very large; she was the type who had fame within her circle but hadn't broken out of it.

After posting such a message, the heat rose instantly.

Even though many people came specifically to curse at her...

Likewise, A Mei's traffic also made the entire incident even hotter, and more people participated.

There was only one core question: when a person goes to occupy a parking space, is it actually useful!

And under such circumstances, not long after, what Dong Shuqin posted was discovered; there was no helping it, the power of Netizens is still very strong.

Then...

She was sprayed into a sieve.

Many people have their own scales in their hearts, and they have their own judgments on whether something is right or wrong.

She thought she could do something by writing a Small Essay, but the reality was that the original situation had long since had videos posted by others.

Just that line, "If you have the ability, touch me," was enough for many people to block her.

A parking space is a parking space, it's for parking; if your car isn't there, what does it count for if a person is standing there.

Those in libraries who use a book to occupy a seat were long ago sprayed out of human status, okay...

There were also people who supported "Human Parking Spot Occupation," so the two sides argued even more fiercely, and neither could convince the other.

"What's wrong with it? Who stipulated that people can't occupy parking spaces? Cars can park, so why can't people? Why can't people park? Is this your family's? Everyone's butt is crooked!"

Just like the young lady at the Case Filing hall thought earlier, they believed that people also sacrificed time, and that people are more advanced than cars; if a car can park, a person can occupy it.

As for whether it's paid or not... let's set that aside for now.

If everything just developed like this, then everyone would at most just have a war of words.

However, Dong Shuqin posted the Indictment, and although some places were covered with a Mosaic, some people still recognized that the person who sued was named Zhou Yi.

By now, many of A Yi's viewers know that A Yi's real name is Zhou Yi.

Taking another look, this is in Jingzhou, and a Lawsuit has been filed to boot.

To use the words of a certain Netizen, although that representative's name wasn't seen, it's eighty percent likely to be that bald guy surnamed Fang.

So, is this A Yi?

Holy crap, in the past I could only eat melon directly when A Yi was messing with those big Companies, I didn't expect to be able to eat it this time before the melon was even ripe!

Consequently, very quickly, some comments appeared in Dong Shuqin's comment section.

"A Yi is the one suing, then it's fine, and she's still writing a Small Essay... eat whatever you want to eat lately while you still can."

First update, thanks to another newcomer brother, Wenchidage, Feimaowuyu, thanks to the three brothers for the tips, thank you.
