Chapter 564: This Is Called Serious Consequences

Although Zhou Yi was no longer paying attention to this matter, Cheng Dama still could not wrap her head around it.

Even while sitting on the Regret Chair, she could not understand it; she had only taken a piece of tofu, so why was she being sentenced!

Did she regret it? Of course she regretted it; she had lost count of how many times she had cried since being brought in.

Furthermore, it wasn't just Cheng Dama; many people on the internet were also a bit confused as to how this could reach the level of a crime. Could a piece of tofu really trigger a tragedy?

Three people were about to face Criminal Case penalties, although there was a high probability of a Suspended Sentence.

But one of them was preparing for the civil service exam, and this could be said to have ruined his entire future in one fell swoop.

Was it a bit too serious?

There were quite a few Netizens who held this view, so that very day, an unknown Fang stepped forward to explain.

"Although it was merely taking a piece of tofu, their actions caused the Serious Consequences of the victim attempting suicide. Even if the suicide attempt did not succeed, it still resulted in Serious Consequences."

"And the current evidence is already sufficient to prove that a causal relationship exists between the two, so that is enough. This is not a matter of a piece of tofu; this is your behavior leading to someone else suffering a mental breakdown or even suicide!"

The answer was very clear, without any overly professional jargon; anyone could understand the term Serious Consequences.

Moreover, this Fang even used examples to illustrate.

Just like the case of that prospective college student who was defrauded, the amount defrauded was over nine thousand; on the internet, where the average annual salary is a million, this might not seem like much money.

But you must know that the Criminal Law has provisions for these things, generally based on a certain amount of money or Serious Consequences, and it is obvious that suicide or sudden death are both Serious Consequences.

In the office, Fang Dazhuang stretched his fingers; he was free at the moment, so he was answering some questions online and, incidentally, preparing to have a good debate with those Senior Trolls.

Beside him, Zhou Yi said helplessly, "Fang Dazhuang, when I came over today, it seemed like quite a few people outside wanted to see you. Your assistant said you were about to die from overwork..."

Upon hearing this, Fang Dazhuang said casually, "What kind of cases are they bringing me? Boring. I only want interesting cases. For boring cases, I might as well chat with Netizens."

Fine, this man treated online bickering as a pastime; what else could you say?

It could be said that Fang Dazhuang was a pure legal organism; although he looked like a person, Zhou Yi felt that Fang Dazhuang probably didn't have much humanity either...

Because he himself had this feeling too.

Not to mention having been exposed to so many Criminal Case precedents like Fang Dazhuang, just his own experiences over the past two years made him feel like he wanted to use the Criminal Law to solve everything he encountered...

Once you get used to holding a hammer, you want to use the hammer to hit everything you encounter.

Learning too much law makes one lose their humanity; this is not an exaggeration but a statement, only sometimes one doesn't realize it.

But when he constantly talks about the law, he has actually already become a legal organism.

Therefore, Zhou Mouren was thinking about whether to go out for a spin.

Just as he was about to talk to Fang Dazhuang, he saw the other party's eyes suddenly light up.

Because at this moment, a guy named "Senior Troll" replied: "According to you, if I encounter this kind of thing next time, can I just attempt suicide and then let someone save me, and the other party will go in? How simple is that!"

Fang Dazhuang showed this reply to Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi immediately wanted to start flaming too, but after reading Fang Dazhuang's reply, Zhou Yi was suddenly amused.

"You really are a clever little thing, do you want me to reward you with a little red flower? Do you feel like you're really smart, thinking of a problem that so many others didn't think of?"

The person on the other side actually replied: "What's wrong? Just tell me if there's a problem with what I said. Isn't this exactly what you meant to express?"

Fang Dazhuang's hands flew as he replied: "Young man, have you ever heard of a crime called the Crime of False Accusation? Have you ever heard of a crime called Perjury? Not to mention, do you think criminal evidence only needs this one thing to prove it, right?"

"If you do this, you will only have one result, and that is to go in and start Treading the Sewing Machine, and become a joke in the local judicial department that will be passed around for many years..."

This is not strange at all; many local Public Security Bureaus have similar jokes, and every year there are many stupid criminals on the internet who bring everyone a lot of joy.

Criminal cases are never proven by a single piece of evidence; the police officers have a hundred ways to investigate you thoroughly...

After replying for a long time, Fang Dazhuang finally looked back at Zhou Yi and said, "What exactly are you here for today? You've already gotten my assistant into your hands, what else do you want? By the way, when are you two getting engaged?"

"Do you want me to help you with a prenuptial agreement? Let me tell you, Xinran is quite an expert when it comes to the Civil Code Marriage and Family Section; a rich man like you needs to be careful."

Zhou Yi said irritably, "Fang Dazhuang, stop joking. You said last time that I was losing my humanity, and I feel that way too. If I were to sign some prenuptial agreement, then this life might as well just be spent with the law."

Life is not just about the law; one must clearly realize that the five chapters and seventy-eight articles of the Civil Code Marriage and Family Section are only there to provide a safety net when a marriage is completely beyond saving.

It is a bottom-line provision given to you by the law!

"I'm saying, spring is here, should we go out for a trip and see the beautiful landscape of our motherland?"

Go out for a trip? Fang Dazhuang fell into deep thought.

Zhou Yi had no choice; as his popularity grew higher and higher, those unfair things that used to happen automatically stayed away.

To the point where it was hard for him to even be serious about things, so he could only use the matters of these Employees in the Company to get his fix.

Sigh, this is probably the trouble of having a cheat code...

Returning to the Company, Zhou Yi did not intend to post a video about this incident, because there was no need to.

In fact, this result was an accident; when a Civil Law case turned into a Criminal Case, their initial work was actually useless, because it would be very easy for the Public Security Bureau to find these people.

As the days passed, A-Fu Company delivered the compensation, and Zhou Yi also posted these updates on his account.

Whatever the amount of the compensation was, he donated it all.

This left the trolls on the internet not knowing how to troll; if it were someone else, they could still force an attack and say it was all fake.

But regarding A Yi's affairs, no one dared to say that.

And Zhou Yi himself returned to his daily life, only compared to before, his big bed finally bore the weight it was meant to bear, and even frequently swayed with a certain rhythm.

He had already discussed it with Zhou Xinran; after the engagement, they would go out for a trip.

It was another beautiful evening, and the Little Koi in Zhou Yi's mouth, Wu Qiuling, was on her way home.

Fang Xiaoying was not with her, because her internship period had ended, and she had returned to Modu, preparing to graduate soon and then come to Tengda after graduation.

Wu Qiuling was very happy during her time at Tengda, even after a failed romance, because she knew more clearly what she truly wanted.

Just then, Wu Qiuling heard shouts coming from ahead, mixed with some screams.

She quickly looked over and saw that on the side of the road not far ahead, a man was kicking a woman on the ground with all his might.

While kicking, he was cursing, and from time to time he would go up and slap her a few times.

And the crying was coming from that woman's mouth.

Listening to the woman constantly begging for mercy, and looking at her bruised and swollen appearance, Wu Qiuling couldn't help it anymore.

Even after being taught many lessons by Tengda, she still belonged to that kind of relatively kind-hearted girl.

Seeing that the people passing by were ignoring it, Wu Qiuling intended to step forward to stop it.

However, before moving, she suddenly stopped.

The lessons taught by Tengda told her that there is no problem with helping others, but the prerequisite for helping others is to protect oneself well; if one cannot even protect oneself, then how can one go about helping others?

This was Zhou Yi's consistent philosophy; it was not that one cannot act bravely for a just cause or cannot help others, but that one must use methods when helping others, and what one must pay attention to first is still oneself.

Therefore, Wu Qiuling hesitated for a moment, but still dialed the police first.

"Yes, right here at the intersection of this Pengyi Street and that Wusan Road, at the northeast corner, there is a man constantly beating a woman, beating her very viciously, you all come quickly..."

After reporting to the police, Wu Qiuling then switched her mobile phone to video recording mode.

It sounds like a lot, but it was done very quickly; it didn't even take half a minute to get it all done.

Only then did Wu Qiuling step forward and say: "What are you doing? Stop for a moment and don't hit anyone yet, look at what you've beaten the person into!"

She did not say anything like "How can a big man like you hit a woman," because Wu Qiuling knew very well that saying such things at this time would only make the other party more irritable.

Wu Qiuling's meaning was that it was about to result in a serious incident, so stop immediately.

However, the man in front of her did not listen at all, looked at Wu Qiuling and said: "Who the f*** are you? I'm beating my wife, do I need you to meddle in other people's business? Get lost, or I'll beat you too!"

Wu Qiuling pointed to her mobile phone and said: "I am recording right now, and I have already called the police. Just because she is your wife, you can beat her as you please? If you can't live together, you can get a divorce!"

After saying this, Wu Qiuling subconsciously stepped back, because she discovered that this man opposite her had a strong smell of alcohol on him.

A miscalculation; what the Company taught before—when encountering someone who has drunk too much, those things taught before cannot be fully applied, because this person has drunk too much, and the things they do are impossible to predict...

The man opposite saw Wu Qiuling's mobile phone, and it was as if his anger had been ignited, becoming even more furious: "Who told you to record? Who told you to record? Are you looking for death!"

As he spoke, he swung his fist and smashed it over directly.

Because of certain interests, Wu Qiuling could now be considered to have learned some combat, but to tell the truth, regarding things like fighting, physical fitness is the most basic thing.

Without a good body, just having learned a little technique, there is simply no way to fight.

She dodged twice but couldn't dodge anymore, was slapped on the face by the man opposite, and was kicked to the ground.

The man was like a mad demon, coming up and kicking Wu Qiuling fiercely, shouting as he kicked: "Meddling in business, right? Meddling in business, I'll let you meddle in business..."

One kick after another, kicking very heavily.

Wu Qiuling felt waves of sharp pain coming from her body, and a trace of a salty taste appeared in her mouth; this was because some place had been broken and was bleeding.

No, it cannot go on like this, she thought to herself, and just happened to see a brick on the side of the road, picked it up, and smashed it toward the man opposite...

In an instant, the man clutched his thigh, lay on the ground, and began to scream.

Wu Qiuling was just preparing to say something when she saw the woman opposite who had just been beaten so miserably suddenly stand up and roar: "Who told you to hit him!"

One chapter today, asking for leave, I'm stuck on the chapter... it actually passed twelve o'clock, the perfect attendance is also gone, crying...
