Chapter 16: She Accuses You of Rape, You Accuse Her of Prostitution!

"She accuses you of rape."

"You accuse her of prostitution."

Lin Chuan came up with a nasty trick.

The live - streaming room exploded.

"Hahaha, the host is really resourceful. How come I didn't think of that?"

"So professional! Leave professional things to professionals. That's really true."

"The trick the host comes up with mainly aims at mutual harm. Nobody can have a good time."

"But is this trick really feasible? I don't understand the law, but it sounds quite absurd when the host talks about it!"

...

The number of barrage messages in the live - streaming room shot up like a rocket.

And Lin Chuan continued to say, "Since the woman is so unkind and wants to swallow your betrothal gifts, you should not be a nice guy anymore and fight her to the end."

"If Uncle Policeman asks, just say this."

"Stir up the water first."

"You two stick to your own statements."

"When it comes to investigation later, they will definitely check your chat records and even verify your identity relationship."

"As long as the police enforce the law fairly."

"After investigation, they will know that you two are boyfriend - girlfriend. At that time, the rape charge will basically not hold."

"The police will let you negotiate a solution and won't list it as a criminal case."

Lin Chuan explained the legal principles in detail, and the viewers in the live - streaming room immediately understood. It turned out that whether a rape charge was established also depended on a comprehensive assessment of interpersonal relationships by the police.

If it was between two strangers, don't think about it. The rape charge would definitely be established.

But if the relationship between the two was boyfriend - girlfriend, it belonged to a civil dispute. Usually, the police would advise the two parties to calm down and negotiate and would not list it as a criminal case.

"But, Lawyer Lin."

"The current situation is... I have already admitted the charge, and the police have also recorded my statement. The woman has sued me in court."

"I really didn't expect that Huihui could be so ruthless."

"I thought I had met true love... Sigh!"

The wronged brother spoke again. It turned out that the woman had already taken action. And this wronged brother, because he didn't understand the law and it was his first time in the police station, was so scared by the police's few words that he admitted the charge.

The police also adhered to the principle of negotiation between the two parties. If it could be resolved through negotiation, they would downplay the matter. If it couldn't be resolved through negotiation, then they would see each other in court.

But the conditions put forward by the woman Huihui were too ruthless. If she was allowed to negotiate peacefully, the man's 300,000 - yuan betrothal gifts would never be returned. The two could part amicably, and the 300,000 - yuan betrothal gifts could be regarded as a breakup fee.

If the wronged one disagreed with this condition, well, sorry, see you in court. Just tear off the mask and sue in court.

Anyway, the statement had been recorded, and the police had also collected physical evidence. This was ironclad evidence. The probability of the woman winning the lawsuit was nearly 100%. She had already consulted a professional lawyer.

"In this case, you have basically established the rape charge."

"That's not easy to deal with."

"It seems that this 300,000 yuan will be wasted."

Lin Chuan stroked his chin, his brain working at high speed.

Just now, after listening to the wronged man's words, he had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

Many suspicious terms flashed through his brain: matchmaking website, the man's ordinary conditions, no one showing interest, the woman being beautiful, taking the initiative to strike up a conversation, 300,000 - yuan betrothal gifts, going on a seaside trip before marriage, a large - bed room, reporting to the police that night...

One by one, suspicious words intertwined in Lin Chuan's mind. Finally, Lin Chuan came to a conclusion.

Section 22

"Brother, what you met may not be true love, but a fairy - trap."

After sorting out the development of the incident, Lin Chuan guessed that the woman might be a professional swindler, specializing in this line of work.

"Lawyer Lin, no way? I registered on a regular matchmaking website."

"Don't disbelieve it. There are many women nowadays who specialize in this line of work."

"What should I do? Can I still get back the betrothal gifts?"

The live - linked audience was extremely anxious. The 300,000 - yuan betrothal gifts were his parents' life savings. If the marriage didn't happen and the money was gone, how could he face his two elderly parents at home?

In order not to worry his parents, he had always hidden this matter.

"I think it's a little hopeless."

Lin Chuan told the truth. The woman specialized in this line of work. At the first moment of the case, she reported to the police, recorded statements, and collected physical evidence. It was too professional!

As long as these two pieces of evidence were in her hands, she was basically invincible in court.

"Lin Chuan, Lawyer, please give me some advice."

"At that time, Huihui and I didn't reach a negotiation result."

"She insisted on taking the 300,000 - yuan betrothal gifts as a breakup fee. I disagreed, and she got angry."

"Now she sues me for rape. Not only does she want 300,000 yuan in spiritual compensation, but she also wants to sentence me. The trial will start next week."

"I don't want to go to jail!"

"If I go to jail, no one will take care of my dad and mom."

"Lin Chuan, Lawyer. It doesn't matter if I don't get the 300,000 - yuan betrothal gifts anymore. Can you defend me for innocence?"

After the wronged man finished speaking, he couldn't hold back his emotions and burst into tears.

The viewers in the live - streaming room were also moved.

"It would be okay if you had lost money in advance. The woman gave you a chance, but you didn't seize it, brother."

"Don't mention this brother. Who would be willing to give up a 300,000 - yuan breakup fee?"

"The wronged brother is really pitiful. He didn't marry his wife, and he also has to pay the betrothal gifts. Even... he may have to go to jail and operate the sewing machine."

"Host, please help this brother. He is really pitiful."

"Yeah, host. Please take on this lawsuit and defend this wronged brother for innocence once!"

"Host, turn on the live - streaming gift switch. I'll swipe for this brother."

...

Facing the requests of the viewers in the live - streaming room, Lin Chuan also felt a little reluctant.

This case was clearly a trap deliberately set by the woman to trap honest people.

After she defrauded the betrothal gifts, she would look for the next victim.

"All right, brother. I'll take this lawsuit."

"Defending for innocence, right?"

"The trial starts next week?"

"There's still plenty of time."

"Let's leave it at that for now. After the live stream is over, we can talk about the specific case separately."

After careful consideration, Lin Chuan decided to take on this case.

His law firm was about to open. He urgently needed a lawsuit to make his name known.

At the same time, the viewers in the live - streaming room seemed very interested in this case, with a relatively high attention level.

And many people sympathized with the brother who was live - linked. It could be imagined that as long as he won this lawsuit, he would probably gain quite a few fans and receive a lot of gifts.

By then, the initial funds of the law firm would have a place to go.
