Chapter 238: No One Knew Criminal Law Better than Sister Mang

Wu Luo heard this and looked to the Department Chief. He didn’t know what else he could do anymore. Were they really going to sue Ms. Gu? If this was taken to court, it definitely wouldn’t be found to be reasonable self-defense.

The Department Chief pursed his lips. “Madam Yi, how about settling this privately and let Gu Mang compensate you?”

“Sorry, Department Chief, the Yi family isn’t short of money,” Liang Qingru said unforgivingly. “Even if Gu Mang did it in self-defense, she has gone beyond reasonable self-defense. She has to pay for it!”

She must put Gu Mang in jail!

Lu Shangjin glanced silently at the two big bosses who looked very calm. Department Chief Yan was anxious as he looked to Lu Chengzhou and Lu Shangjin.

“Sure, this was excessive force for a scuffle,” Gu Mang said with an insipid and indifferent expression.

Liang Qingru sneered upon hearing that. “Good that you admitted to it!”

Gu Mang nodded, but suddenly she smirked, “But who says this was just a scuffle.”

Her eyebrow rose in a sinister manner as she spoke.

“What is it if not a scuffle?” The lawyer frowned and returned with a question, pointing to the video on the computer. “This video is enough to show this was self-defense with excessive force!”

Lu Chengzhou said slowly, his gaze chilly, “Lu San, teach them about the law.”

Lu San responded respectfully, “Yes.”

Lu Chengzhou took Gu Mang’s hand and went to sit in the corner. The two carried themselves in an imposing manner.

Lu San looked at Wu Luo. “Officer Wu, allow me to ask a question. What are the punishments for attempted murder?

Attempted murder? At the mention of that, Wu Luo felt enlightened suddenly as he looked at Gu Mang in astonishment. The old police officers used to say that the ten year old Gu Mang knew the criminal law better than them. With this move, he was really convinced.

Wu Luo replied in a serious manner, “The sentence for attempted murder is similar to intentional murder. It can be either death sentence, life imprisonment, or imprisonment for at least ten years. For a less severe offence, the punishment is imprisonment for at least three years and up to ten years.”

Lu San kicked the metal rods and daggers on the ground, glanced over at the group, and laughed. “Does this look like an attempted murder? Can you sue for it?”

With that said, their expressions changed drastically. How did it become attempted murder?!

“A dagger can kill in a single strike. It is fortunate that Ms. Gu, who is a vulnerable girl, has practiced self-defense ever since she was young. It is a miracle she is sitting here safely now.” Lu San looked at Liang Qingru. “Your son has some guts to attempt murder when he’s just becoming an adult.”

Upon hearing the words ‘vulnerable girl,” Wu Luo was speechless.

Liang Qingru’s face was pale as she blurted out, “Nonsense! They only fought because they didn’t like each other, how can it be murder!”

The lawyer couldn’t keep her calm this time. He didn’t expect the other party would accuse them of attempted murder.

If it was only a scuffle, Gu Mang would be charged with excessive self-defense and she would definitely go to jail. But if they brought up attempted murder the weapons and the video would be enough to convict the boys.

Lu San looked at Liang Qingru and smiled. “Should we let the judge decide, Madam Yi? What do you think?”

As he said that, he kicked the pile of metal rods again. The clanging sound caused the parents to shudder.

Liang Qingru grasped her bag tightly, her fingers turning pale as she panicked like a cat on a hot tin roof. Xi Yan recovered her composure and felt refreshed. She had never thought that things would turn out like this.
