"It hurts, it hurts, Mom, it hurts me, you take the medicine lightly......"

In the hospital room, the windows are open, exchanging air, but the heating is also constantly supplying the temperature, and last night it snowed heavily, and from the window, it was all a backlog of white.

The air is cold, seeping into the body, making people feel very refreshed.

Su Yu hugged the flowers and Huo Ran came to see Lu Yuzhou, they had just gotten out of court, and before they entered the ward, they heard Lu Yuzhou's voice.

Then there was Lu's mother's angry voice: "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, forget it, have a good vacation, don't fall in love, don't go on a blind date, and don't stay at home, take the money and go to the bar to play with a lot of women, ouch, get drunk and be beaten, why don't you kill you!" ”

Su Yu raised his eyelids, glanced at Huo Ran, and then knocked lightly on the door.

The scolding inside gradually died out.

Mother Lu smiled and opened the door, she didn't know Su Yu, but she knew Huo Ran, and hurriedly welcomed the two in.

She was busy pouring water, looked at Su Yu, and said with a smile: "Is this a new trainee lawyer recruited by your law firm?" Su Yu, right? Auntie often hears Azhou mention you. ”

Su Yu nodded: "Well, my name is Su Yu." ”

"Then you stay with Azhou for a while, there are fruits on the table, they are all cut, you eat quickly, Auntie go out and bring some food for Azhou."

Su Yuwu's big eyes looked at Lu Yuzhou on the hospital bed for a moment, the smile was suppressed in her chest, she took a deep breath and spit it out shallowly.

Pursed her lips tightly.

"Laugh if you want."

Lu Yuzhou gave up on himself, turned over, and pointed his butt at them, but because the movement was too loud, he grinned in pain.

The corners of Su Yu's lips slowly revealed their curvature.

Huo Ran was not serious at all, and laughed lazily.

Both sides of Lu Yuzhou's eyes were red and swollen, his cheekbones were also raised, and there were blood marks on the corners of his mouth, which was miserable and funny.

He lay down for a while, suddenly remembered something, and jumped out of bed.

Involved in the wound, his face was hideous: "Although I am drunk, I know who hit me!" Xie Shen, that bastard, I already saw that he was unhappy, go and ask the doctor to give me a certificate, I want to sue him! That night, he also picked up a drunk girl and went home, allegedly*, and there were two other people in the car, maybe *. ”

Huo Ran lowered his eyes and glanced at Lu Yuzhou's wound, groaned, and snorted: "Your injury, you don't even have a fracture, no matter how strict the appraisal is, it will only be a slight injury, and if you don't reach the sentencing point, you will be detained by public security." ”

"Then I have to go to the appraisal and detain him for 10 days!"

Huo Ran glanced at him lazily and poured cold water: "In the surveillance, you hit people first." ”

Lu Yuzhou gave up on himself again, lay down, and cursed.

*

Even if the scars on his face are invisible, Lu Yuzhou still has to go to court.

After everyone in the auditorium saw the blue and purple palette on Lu Yuzhou's face, they all laughed out loud.

The presiding judge knocked on the gavel to silence everyone, but the young judge next to him couldn't help but want to laugh.

The focus of today's court proceedings is whether Mu Yu's high school classmate Zhang Xulin fabricated the fact that Li Muyu (pen name: Mu Yu) stole his ideas, which constituted the crime of insult and defamation.

Lu Yuzhou's mood was looked at by everyone like this, and his mood was naturally not very good, and his bad mood coupled with his hideous face made it particularly gloomy and terrifying when he debated.

Su Yu sat in the auditorium, and always felt that Lu Yuzhou was going to walk out of the acting seat excitedly in the next second.

The evidence submitted by Lu Yuzhou, Evidence No. 1 is Mu Yu's first manuscript, the paper is yellowed and very old, Evidence No. 2 is the time of the first printing of Mu Yu's "Girl's Heart" published, Evidence No. 3 is a printed copy of the email exchanged between Mu Yu and her crush pen pal, Evidence No. 4 is a text copy of Zhang Xulin saying on the Internet that Mu Yu plagiarized her creativity, and Evidence No. 5 is Li Muyu's depression proof.

He smiled incomprehensibly: "Because the time of handwriting formation cannot be identified, Evidence No. 1 is Mu Yu's first manuscript, Evidence No. 2 Mu Yu's "Girl's Heart" was first printed in 2011, and Mu Yu's email exchange with her pen pal is from 2007 to 2010, and "Girl's Heart" is based on the correspondence between the girl and the pen pal, and Mu Yu's parents are our witnesses, which is enough to prove that the first draft of Mu Yu's "Girl's Heart" was formed in 2008, and "Girl's Heart" It is also based on the true story between Mu Yu and this pen pal, and the defendant fabricated the false facts of the plaintiff's theft of ideas, causing great damage to the plaintiff's reputation, indirectly causing the plaintiff to commit suicide, constituting the crime of defamation. ”

The other party submitted a draft written by Zhang Xulin, which wrote the book How to Conceive the Girl's Heart, interspersed with a sentence from the author: "After writing this today, I will buy the last happiness pen before it is completely discontinued." ”

The opposing lawyer said: "We all know that the Happiness Pen was completely discontinued on January 1, 2010, that is, the plaintiff already had a general framework before January 1, 2010, far earlier than the time when the magazine received Mu Yu's submission in 2011, which is enough to prove that the plaintiff accidentally learned of the defendant's outline, stole the idea, and submitted it to the publishing house during the period of getting along with the defendant, so the defendant did not fabricate and spread the plaintiff's false facts, which does not constitute the crime of defamation." ”

Mu Yu's father appeared in court as a witness.

Lu Yuzhou only asked him one question: "When did you first see the first draft of "Girl's Heart"? ”

"In 2008, I remember that it was the Olympic Games, my daughter said that she wanted to take the diary she wrote to meet a foreign netizen who came to see the Olympics, and asked me to accompany her, she named the diary "Girl's Heart", our family has always been more open-minded, so I went with it."

The defendant's lawyer smiled and asked directly: "May I ask the witness, did you and your wife watch the content of "Girl's Heart" in 2008? ”

Mu Yu's father was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "My wife and I respect the child's privacy and won't look at it." ”

The defendant's lawyer got the answer he wanted, and smiled with satisfaction: "In other words, you haven't read the content of "Girl's Heart", so you don't know that this manuscript in court is the same as the one that Mu Yu brought to meet netizens back then, right?" That is, the manuscript in court may not have been completed in 2008. ”

Mu Yu's father was stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Lu Yuzhou: "Objection, the other party's agent induces questions. ”

The defendant's lawyer restrained his smile: "Presiding judge, I'm done asking." ”

When Lu Yuzhou asked Zhang Xulin, she cried before she could ask Zhang Xulin, sobbing quietly, looking up at Lu Yuzhou, and then lowering her head again.

Compared with Lu Yuzhou's indifference, she looked particularly pitiful.

"Defendant, you don't have the habit of writing letters and emails with foreign pen pals for a long time, why did you come up with the idea of writing this type of article?"

Zhang Xulin said: "That's what I thought. She choked up, maybe someone taught her, even if she cried, her voice was enough for the judges to hear clearly, "Many fiction writers have not experienced it personally, but they have all written science fiction and wealthy novels." ”

Lu Yuzhou snorted coldly in his heart.

The court was adjourned for the time being.

Su Yu followed.

Lu Yuzhou touched the wound on his face, it hurt a little, he twisted his face, and said: "That woman is amazing, what a courtroom, how can she be made like a mourning hall, crying and crying all day long, and she doesn't need to perform for the jury, she cried and moved herself?" ”

Su Yu was a little amused, and she reminded him: "However, the presiding judge is an old lady, and she seems to have relented." ”

"To be honest, this case is already very funny if it is to be fought, Zhang Xulin has no personal experience, how can she write a novel with her real growth experience as the main selling point?"

"Don't underestimate the recognition of the author's imagination by the masses."

Lu Yuzhou took a sip of water, paused, recalled Su Yu's words, suddenly turned his eyes, glanced at her, and said, "Do you have an idea?" ”

"Hmm...... Have you noticed that stack of emails? ”

"Are you talking about the emails between Mu Yu and foreign netizens?"

"Hmm...... Have you read them all? ”

Lu Yuzhou pulled the corners of his mouth: "Probably browse, thousands of emails, and they are all long in English, how can you read it?" ”

Su Yu said softly: "I'm done." ”

Lu Yuzhou's eyes widened in surprise, and then he laughed.

In fact, there is nothing surprising about it, Su Yu has always been such a serious person, and during the recess of college, I often see her sitting obediently in her position like a high school student, looking at her homework attentively.

Su Yu stretched out her hand and gently held the falling snowflakes, she turned her head and said, "If you read it, this case would have been finished long ago." ”

She took out the stack of copies from her bag, and there were traces of her notes on almost every page of the copies, and she found the one she wanted, saying: "In the English email dated October 21, 2008, the other party mentioned that he had finished reading "Girl's Heart", and thanked her for liking, and also excerpted a lot of sentences in "Girl's Heart", and praised Mu Yu's writing is very good, and encouraged her to write the email story of the two. ”

Lu Yuzhou didn't read the email very carefully, only skimmed it cursoly, and he originally only planned to use the email exchange as evidence to prove that Mu Yu's novel was based on real experience, and there was no such thing as stealing ideas.

The trial is reconvening.

Lu Yuzhou presented the evidence that had already been submitted as new proof, and unearthed the letter dated 21 October 2008.

"The time of this email was sent was October 21, 2008, and judging from the sentences of the first draft of "Girl's Heart" excerpted from the email, we can find that the first draft of Mu Yu in 2008 and the 2011 published draft are about the same as the content, and taking a step back, even if Mu Yu was influenced by other people before planning to publish "Girl's Heart", then it should be influenced by her pen pal, not as the defendant said, Mu Yu stole the idea of her first draft around 2010."

He paused, touched his nose, and said with a smile on his eyebrows: "As for how the defendant came up with the idea of "Girl's Heart" out of thin air...... By virtue of her relationship with the plaintiff...... Well, free heart testimony, of course, we don't know why she spread false facts on the Internet to discredit the plaintiff after Mu Yu became famous. ”

The judge struck the gavel and warned Lu Yuzhou: "Plaintiff's agent, please be serious and don't make remarks other than the facts of the case." ”

Without the verdict pronounced in court, the English email also needs to be notarized by a translation office before it can be used as evidence.

But the outcome is almost decided.

When he walked out of the courtroom, from a distance, Su Yu saw Zhang Xulin looking back at Mu Yu's parents, stopping there, and then suddenly running over.

The tears she shed in the court were still on her face, her eyes were red, and she bit her lower lip tightly: "Auntie, please, can you withdraw the lawsuit?" I don't want to go to jail, I really don't want to go to jail. ”

Mu Yu's mother pushed her away, her eyes were full of red bloodshots, her throat seemed to be blocked, she couldn't speak, she couldn't swallow bitterly, she felt disgusting: "Let me withdraw the lawsuit?" ”
