The moment she pushed away the 203 courtroom, she heard the clerk call the time: "At nine o'clock in the morning, the court is now in session."

At this moment, the entire court's eyes were glued to her fingertips that were scratched by documents, and blood was dripping on the cover of the blue file.
"Attendants, please leave immediately." The sound of the gavel made her tremble, but she saw the man raising his hand to signal, with a platinum watch exposed from his sleeves: "Presiding judge, this is our new witness."
