Chapter 668 - 667: Lion King Card
Lin Sizhi paused a little and continued:
"So, what are the requirements to obtain this card?
"The applicant’s personal net assets must reach nine figures, but this is only the minimum threshold; it’s likely that the application will be rejected. The people who have actually obtained this card generally have assets exceeding 400 million.
"These assets must include property in a first-tier city, cash, and blue-chip stocks in a diversified and verifiable combination.
"Additionally, the applicant must provide bank statements for the past six months, with an average daily transaction amount reaching the million level.
"Applying for this card requires passing months of review, with exceptionally stringent background investigations, and any financial anomalies or discrepancies between transaction flow and income will result in direct rejection.
"Could such a card belong to the male party?
"If it truly belongs to the male party, it implies that his personal wealth once exceeded tens of millions. Even if he is bankrupt now, would he really risk such a great danger to kill his wife for a mere ten million insurance fraud?"
Tang Qing furrowed his brows, instantly realizing something, and looked at Wang Yongxin.
But Wang Yongxin remained expressionless, just silently gazing ahead.
Tang Qing slightly bowed to the audience: "I implore the honored jurors to verify the authenticity of these statements."
[『Lawyer’s testimony about the casino card』 contains misinformation.]
[The minimum asset threshold for applying for the Lion King Card is 80 million. Other information is accurate.]
Tang Qing’s expression became even more serious.
Because the false information uncovered was trivial, further proving the authenticity of Lin Sizhi’s words.
Lin Sizhi continued: "Since this card is confirmed as evidence, it must belong to either the male party or the female party.
"Currently, it seems impossible for it to belong to the male party."
Bai Zilan couldn’t help but frown and stood up to question: "Do you mean to say, it belongs to the female party?
"But the asset information for the female party has also been substantiated with corresponding documents, totaling around 20 million. It’s even less likely for the female party to obtain such a card."
Lin Sizhi nodded: "Indeed, merely considering the asset situation, the female party definitely cannot possess this card.
"However, this card has been verified; it truly exists and was taken from the evidence room, confirmed to be pertinent to this case.
"Then, after eliminating other possibilities, the remaining possibility, no matter how strange, can only be the truth.
"The true owner of this card is a mysterious wealthy individual. For some special reason, this card ended up in the hands of the female party."
This statement caused many jurors to display expressions of shock.
Because such a speculation is somewhat bizarre, and completely inconsistent with previous inferences.
Yet, Lin Sizhi’s testimony about this card was indeed authenticated.
Only the admission threshold was wrong — it’s actually 80 million, not a hundred million, while all other information remains accurate.
It’s the most elite Lion King Card, meaning it can only belong to some mysterious wealthy individual.
Lin Sizhi continued: "Could this mysterious wealthy individual be President Wang?
"President Wang owns a yacht, so his assets indeed meet this threshold. But if this card truly belongs to President Wang, he wouldn’t present this evidence.
"Hence, this card belongs to another wealthy individual not mentioned in the case materials, who was a frequent visitor to the casino and the true owner of the Lion King Card.
"For some reason, he gifted this card to the female party."
Bai Zilan frowned tightly, interrupting Lin Sizhi: "Wait a minute, I object!
"If this card truly is the top-tier Lion King Card, how could it be randomly gifted? There might be billions in gambling funds involved!
"Also, on what basis are you asserting it was gifted to the female party?"
Lin Sizhi did not mind: "No need to rush, I will explain it all clearly.
"Indeed, the Lion King Card as the ultimate casino card is not allowed to be gifted, nor does it have a sub-card. However, in certain circumstances, it can indeed end up in another person’s hands.
"Please allow me, the honored jurors, to hold a bit of suspense because it requires pairing with other information for corroboration.
"Among the information previously validated, there’s actually another obvious doubt: according to the female party’s bank transactions and asset proof, her income is indeed significant, even reaching a level of making millions annually.
"However, the materials consistently fail to specify the exact occupation of the female party.
"Isn’t that strange?
"At such an income level, one would either be an executive of a large company, a well-established entrepreneur, or a high-net-worth professional.
"If she truly had such a status, it should have been reflected in the documents as evidence to enhance creditworthiness.
"But there’s none.
"This suggests that the female party’s large cash flow likely did not originate from conventional occupations, but rather from ’grey income.’
"In casinos, there’s a particular occupation known as a ’Chip Stacker.’
"They mainly earn by introducing gamblers, exchanging chips, and brokering loans, essentially serving as intermediaries for the casino.
"Moreover, females in this industry have additional advantages:
"They can create an affluent internet celebrity persona online, attract followers by posting glamorous photos, and even earn extra income through paid companionship services.
"This also explains why someone at the female party’s level of income would choose to marry a male party who has no career. Clearly, the female party’s wealth was derived from grey income; she and the male party are birds of a feather, it’s no wonder they would end up together.
"If the female party’s actual occupation was a ’Chip Stacker,’ then everything makes sense.
"Her transactions come from the grey income of chip stacking;
"She met the male party at the casino;
"This Lion King Card was actually a ’souvenir’ left by her when entertaining some mysterious wealthy individual.
"As a Chip Stacker and internet celebrity, the female party needed to flaunt her wealth on the internet from time to time, creating an ’elite woman’ persona to attract more gamblers and increase her own income.
"The photos she previously posted on her social circle and social media are proof.
"These photos have evident traces of staged shoots, even more meticulous than those taken by the usual ’travel-loving wealthy second generation,’ almost deliberately.
"She was using these photos to craft her persona.
"And ’Lion King Card’ is a perfect prop; whenever she could access the Lion King Card, she would eagerly take a photo as a keepsake.
"But just one photo is insufficient.
"Because she needed to consistently photograph this card in various settings to prove she truly owns this card, rather than using someone else’s card to deceive.
"If she could obtain a genuine Lion King Card, it would be ideal.
"But the Lion King Card is hard to fake and easily exposed.
"Fortunately, being a ’Chip Stacker,’ especially a young and attractive female Chip Stacker, she certainly has other solutions.
"After some mysterious wealthy individual with the Lion King Card splurged at the casino and achieved substantial gains, the female party, accompanying as a Chip Stacker, also secured a handsome payment. At this point, the female party took advantage of the wealthy person’s good mood to make a timely request: Could you leave a used Lion King Card with me as a memento?
"What the wealthy person needed to do was very simple. He only needed to tell the casino that he lost his original Lion King Card and needed a replacement.
"Then, the casino would issue him a new Lion King Card.
"While his original Lion King Card becomes a defunct card, no longer usable, it can remain as a genuine souvenir.
"The female party used this method to preserve this card.
"President Wang mentioned when presenting the evidence, the Lion King Card was found in the guest cabin on board for this couple, indicating they always carried it.
"If it was a real and usable Lion King Card, so valuable, why carry it around? This isn’t a casino.
"The answer is very clear: because this is the female party’s ’productivity tool,’ a prop card used for occasional photoshoots during travel, naturally she would carry it."/p>
