CH 86

As soon as the two met, they were at each other’s throats, and the whole atmosphere became tense.

Qiu Zhenyang rarely exposes such negative emotions, but Lin Yuhan really disgusted him, and he didn’t want to suppress his disgust and hatred.

The Lin family really isn’t a good thing.

“Oh, I should have drowned that girl in the first place, and sent the body directly to you, so that you would not have to go to my house and struggle.” Lin Yuhan was still stubborn in the face of impending death, trying to anger Qiu Zhenyang with words.

But his method couldn’t arouse Qiu Zhenyang’s inner turmoil at all, he just held down Ling Mu who was beside him with an angry face, and looked at Lin Yuhan with a sneer. “There’s no struggle, after all, it was thanks to that time that we were able to get hold of you, together with the rest of your family.”

Now that Lin Zhiyuan’s family is in danger, Lin Yuhan’s words can’t make much of a difference.

The judge and other members also arrived, and the court session began.

Although Lin Yuhan has a lawyer sent by the Lin family, Qiu Zhenyang’s side has ironclad evidence, including both people and material evidence. Basically, after his side presented everything, the opponent’s lawyer had no defense at all.

If it’s just intentional harm, the lawyer can refute it, but there’s no way to refute the use of contraband.

Lin Yuhan looked at the hesitating lawyer, and suddenly slammed his clenched fists on the table, shouting at him with bloodshot eyes: ”Are you still a f*cking lawyer? The Lin family paid you to come here to play? Damn it. If you can’t let out a single fart, sooner or later your company will go bankrupt!”

The sudden violence startled many people, and even the judge turned black and immediately reprimanded: “Don’t say anything unrelated to the case, first warning!”

“Tch.” Lin Yuhan snorted disdainfully, folded his hands on his chest, turned his head aside, and stopped talking.

Although the pale-faced lawyer said a few words due to Lin Yuhan’s threat, given the evidence and case against him, he still failed to win anything for Lin Yuhan.

The final verdict was finalized on the spot. Lin Yuhan was convicted of various crimes, imprisoned in Interstellar Prison for ten years, exiled to Desolate Star after ten years, and will never return to Capital Star.

After the judge got up and left, Qiu Zhenyang sat in his seat and grabbed Ling Mu’s hand tightly.

“Although this punishment came a little late, the result is still quite good.” Qiu Zhenyang was relieved after solving the cancer named Lin Yuhan. He had endured for too long before, almost thinking he had become a Buddhist as he hoarded evidence but couldn’t make a move.

Regardless of the Lin family’s desires, Lin Yuhan has no way to revive. Let alone now that Mr. Lin has completely abandoned Lin Zhiyuan, and Lin Zhiyuan and Weng Quan are also unable to protect themselves.

Lin Yuhan, who was in handcuffs, was carried by two soldiers, without the slightest trace of pride, contempt, or arrogance in his eyes. He is no longer the eldest young master, just a prisoner who is about to be put in prison.

“Qiu Zhenyang, you have to die!” The few words leaked from between his teeth, his facial muscles trembling with hatred. Before the trial, he already knew that his parents had been arrested, and now there is no one else in their family who can help him except Lin Nuo, who can’t do anything. In fact, up to now, Lin Yuhan was even a little obsessed with thinking that he was right.

Qiu Zhenyang couldn’t help smiling: “If scolding people makes you more comfortable, then go ahead. After all, you have ten years to spend in prison. It must be very uncomfortable, right?”

Interstellar Prison is not just an ordinary prison. It is where the criminals who committed unforgivable crimes stay. Basically, they are all murderers who’ve done much evil. If someone like Lin Yuhan who is still a student enters, I am afraid that he will not be able to eat and walk around.

Ling Mu just glanced at him with contempt, and didn’t even bother to say a word to him.

The audience began to chat in low voices as Lin Yuhan yelled and was escorted away by the soldiers.

Qiu Zhenyang handed Ling Mu a bottle of water, and the two retreated from the plaintiff’s seat and moved back to sit with Zhu Qin, waiting for Lin Zhiyuan’s case which would be tried half an hour later.

Half an hour later, Lin Zhiyuan was brought up, and Qiu Zhang and Qiu Haolin had also arrived.

With Weng Quan and Weng Li’s confession, and the seizure of all members and equipment involved,  Lin Zhiyuan’s criminal evidence is more conclusive, and the court almost did not give him an opportunity to defend himself. Punishment was more or less decided on the spot.

Lin Zhiyuan, immediate execution.

The moment the verdict came out, there was an uproar in the entire audience.

Although most people guessed this result, it was a surprise to hear it. After all, Lin Zhiyuan is also a celebrity in the news. He appears frequently in various social occasions, and a rich name to the public. Hearing such a wealthy person being sentenced to death immediately is quite shocking.

Seeing the result, Qiu Zhenyang was not interested in staying any longer, and asked his mother, “Mom, dad and brother will go back later, should we wait for them?”

Zhu Qin straightened his hair, shook his head and said: ” They also have to conduct a more in-depth investigation of Lin Zhiyuan’s incident, in case there are still fish that slipped through the net. They should be very busy these days and won’t come back.”

Hearing this, Qiu Zhenyang could only stand up, raised his hand from a distance to greet Qiu Zhang and Qiu Haolin, and then left with Zhu Qin and Ling Mu.

Since it was still early, the group of three went directly to Ling Dang’s school to pick her up from school. Ling Mu has not seen his sister for a long time, and couldn’t wait. Although he stared at the scenery outside the window, he was actually thinking of Ling Dang.

When they finally arrived at the school gate, there were already droves of parents waiting to pick up their children. Before, Zhu Qin came down to pick up Ling Dang. Today, in order to surprise Ling Dang, she didn’t go down. Only Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu got off the aircraft to wait.

The pair immediately stood out amongst the group of middle-aged people because of their age. Some parents couldn’t even help asking them, “You look so young, you have children at such a young age? Having kids at such an age must be tough?”

Given how the two of them held hands – occasionally the taller one would lower his head and listen – the two looked so in love that it inevitably made people think that they already had children.

At the question, Ling Mu hurriedly explained: “No, no, I’m picking up my sister!”

Qiu Zhenyang raised his eyebrows, smiled and said, “Well, we’re just here to pick up his sister, but it won’t be soon until we get married. Maybe there will be a child soon~”

Several parents who were a little closer laughed meaningfully, while Ling Mu blushed in embarrassment, and squeezed the soft flesh on Qiu Zhenyang’s waist angrily. “What are you talking about! This is Ling Dang’s school, don’t talk nonsense!”

Qiu Zhenyang curled his lips, pretending to be wronged. “How can this be nonsense, it’s obviously the truth.”

Many parents were interested in the two of them. Their gossiping hearts were ablaze, pestering them with questions, such as how long they’ve known each other, to how they fell in love. Ling Mu was about to be annoyed to death, but he couldn’t refuse directly, so he could only hide behind Qiu Zhenyang without saying a word. Qiu Zhenyang is very handy, treating everyone with a smile, and won the favor of many parents.

Seeing that teachers began to lead the kids outside, Ling Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly grabbed Qiu Zhenyang’s hand and went to find Ling Dang.

Ling Dang, who had been talking about her brother all day today, was always very excited. Thinking that she would see her brother when she got home, she almost ran to the school gate. As a result, the moment she saw Ling Mu and Qiu Zhenyang, the little girl beamed in surprise, rushing past the teacher and towards Ling Mu.

“Brother!”

Ling Mu squatted down to catch his younger sister, and hugged her hard.

The little girl has gained a lot of weight in Qiu’s house. She used to be skinny, but later, was fed by Qiu Zhenyang and now at Qiu’s house, Zhu Qin has used many tricks to get her to eat. Not to mention some fruit snacks and the like, as long as Ling Dang likes it, Zhu Qin will buy a bunch of them and store them at home, so the little girl now has a double chin.

“You’re getting fat.” Ling Mu squeezed his sister’s arm and spat out this sentence mercilessly.

Behind him, Qiu Zhenyang burst out laughing, and patted Ling Mu on the shoulder helplessly. “Okay, let’s go, don’t stand in the door of the school. There are other parents who want to pick up their children.”

He went to talk to the teacher who ran over to check the situation. The responsible teacher was shocked when he saw Ling Dang, who had always been well-behaved, suddenly run away. Seeing Ling Mu, he was relieved and said goodbye to Ling Dang.

Ling Mu hugged Ling Dang and got into the aircraft intimately. The two sat together, and Ling Dang happily chatted to her brother about the interesting things that recently happened. On the side, Qiu Zhenyang could only watch and sigh with sadness and jealousy.

Zhu Qin glanced at her son’s unpromising appearance, and snorted. “Jealous of even his sister? I think you are already clingy enough at school, you can’t even give them some time?”

Qiu Zhenyang looked at her resentfully. “Mom, are you putting your depression on me because dad can’t go home tonight? But even if you say I’m useless, dad and brother still have business to do.”

Zhu Qin’s face darkened. She raised his hand and gave Qiu Zhenyang a slap. “Stinky boy, it’s your turn to talk about your parents? Stay jealous!”

Qiu Zhenyang, who was beaten mercilessly by his mother, sighed. He could only bow his head and go surf the Internet.

After solving the big troubles in his heart, he and Ling Mu will no longer have to worry about these bad things. The school league is just over half a month away, and they can fully devote themselves to it. Qiu Zhenyang previously sent the rules of the competition to the heads of each school, enabling schools to determine the teams they plan on sending to the competition.

As for the Interstellar Academy, more and more people want to join the “Machine Wars” club recently. Because there was too much interest, Qiu Zhenyang simply set a threshold. As long as someone can defeat anyone other than the vice president and manager, they can join the club.

In this way, some talented members can be screened and enter, and it can also give the members more training.

Now there are nearly 50 members in the club. After three days, Qiu Zhenyang will personally review them. There is a one-fifth probability of becoming a regular member who’ll participate in the final competition.

Sending good news to the members, Qiu Zhenyang listened to the chatter between Ling Dang and Ling Mu, and closed his eyes with a slight smile.

Yes, the court trial is that quick. Can’t say anything about the pacing… ‍️
