Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 216 Sexy Law Firm, Training Lawyers Online! [24]

Hello? Teacher?

Inside the law firm.

Xu Liang took out his phone and dialed Wu Chengjun's number.

Wu Chengjun answered almost instantly and replied with a single sentence.

"How's the case going?"

His voice was slightly low.

Although the case itself has a relatively small impact, the people it affects are all extremely powerful, making it difficult for him to ignore it.

It's April 3rd, the day of the trial. If nothing unexpected happens, Xu Liang should be able to resolve the case today!

But things backfired.

"Teacher, how's the evidence collection going with Zhao Hailong?"

Xu Liang directly stated his true purpose.

This is evidence that Zhao Hailong used improper means in his previous lawsuits!

"Yes, it's been prepared for a long time," Wu Chengjun replied, then frowned.

Xia Yao and Wang Feiyu probably don't know yet.

On March 20, just two days after they were reported, their teacher and senior students had already investigated and uncovered detailed clues about Zhao Hailong!

These things are enough to revoke Zhao Hailong's lawyer's license!
In other words, Xu Liang cannot be exposed too early, which is why he has been kept in the dark until now.
at the moment
"Could you please report this for me, teacher?" Xu Liang said.

report?

In other words, the report should be directed at Zhao Hailong!
Wu Chengjun paused, then immediately realized something, his brows furrowed, and he uttered only two words.

"Lost?"

If the case is won, Zhao Hailong will need to handle the court's verdict as a lawyer, such as the most basic compensation.

In this situation, the revocation of Zhao Hailong's lawyer status will affect the interests of Xu Liang's client!

Xu Liang wouldn't do something so stupid, unless
“We won, but it’s no different from losing,” Xu Liang said.

really
Wu Chengjun was somewhat annoyed.

Although he was far away in the upper town, he knew very well how a litigator who could report a licensed lawyer would handle the case!
If the other party can use such underhanded tactics, it means they are not serious about the case. Therefore, losing the case is most likely because they were framed!
"Report it now?" Wu Chengjun asked in a deep voice.

“Right now!” Xu Liang nodded.

Upon receiving the answer, Wu Chengjun immediately agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, I'll arrange it!"

"Excuse me."

Xu Liang said something, and then Wu Chengjun hung up the phone and hurried off to make arrangements.

Inside the law firm.

Xia Yao and Wang Feiyu looked at each other in bewilderment as they watched this scene, and finally Wang Feiyu's eyes twitched.

"Senior, who is that Zhao Hailong?"

heard asking.

Xu Liang, who was putting his phone back in his pocket, snapped out of his reverie, looked at the other person, and casually said:

"The defendant's defense lawyer in this case."

"Then you..." Wang Feiyu hesitated before speaking.

"You can't even see that!?"

Xu Liang was somewhat surprised, looking at the other person's head, wondering if the other person was impersonating a student from Shangcheng University.

He said with righteous indignation:

"Of course, we should revoke his lawyer's license!"

"The opposing side has two lawyers, one skilled in strategy and the other skilled in courtroom performance."

"With the second trial imminent, I'm definitely going to take down the one who's good at court hearings and revoke their license!"

That is
By using the rules, they directly disqualify the other party from being a lawyer!
What if you encounter a lawyer you can't beat? Of course, revoke their license and replace them with someone you can!
Although Xu Liang could easily defeat his opponent, that was the message he conveyed, leaving Xia Yao and the others completely bewildered.

"Of course, this trick shouldn't be used recklessly. Only use it if the other party flips the table."

Xu Liang explained, "Otherwise, this move will only become your weakness."

Zhao Hailong misused this tactic, allowing Xu Liang to secretly discover Zheng Shijie and the more than ten jars that disappeared five years ago without Xu Liang's knowledge!
The key is
"I'm teaching you to use your connections when you have them, instead of being maliciously reported in front of your face and then foolishly thinking you've really done something wrong!"

Xu Liang said sternly, his eyes sweeping over the dozen or so people in front of him.

These proud and arrogant fledglings didn't even think of using connections to resolve the matter immediately after being reported!

Then why bother taking the entrance exams for Shangcheng or Tsinghua Universities?
Why bother with finding a master?!
"Using a relationship?"

Xia Yao was still struggling internally; she bit her lip, feeling conflicted.

"Can"

"But what do you mean, 'but'!?"

Xu Liang glared at him, "I told you to use your connections, not to be like Zhao Hailong!"

"Don't you even understand defensive self-defense?"

Xia Yao lowered her head, feeling somewhat ashamed.

Seeing this, Xu Liang stopped scolding him and waved his hand.

"Alright, alright, everyone disperse. We've delayed the start of work for half a month."

"And you all graduated from prestigious universities!"

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly began to deal with the work at hand.

They should have started the case two weeks ago, but unfortunately the business suspension and rectification delayed it.

Ten people were delayed for half a month, and this was a firm with Xu Liang's reputation.
Think of how much money we'll lose!

Thinking of this, Xu Liang's gaze gradually changed, and he lashed out again:

"Starting today, everyone must complete one case this month. If that's not possible, go do some consulting and make up for last month's losses!"

Hear the words.

The ten people felt a chill run down their spines, quickened their pace, and felt a bitter taste in their mouths.

One case a month?
Do you really think everyone is the other person?
In a civil dispute, it's quite normal for the two sides to wrestle and drag on for half a year!

Criminal cases simply cannot be tried within a month.
Despite this, they felt a sense of relief.

It seems that the senior didn't dwell on their mistakes, and the burden that had been weighing on their minds for more than ten days didn't bother them.

As for Xu Liang
He looked at the vibrant and thriving law firm and felt a sense of relief.

After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand, and Yang Ruoxi immediately stepped forward.

“It wasn’t you,” Xu Liang said.

Before Yang Ruoxi could speak, a shadowy figure stepped forward beside her.

It was Su Yu who had arranged everything for Qi Tao!

"Senior brother," Su Yu said.

"How are things going with the second trial in Qingshi City?" Xu Liang asked after thinking for a moment.

Jiangcheng is under the administration of Qingshi City.

Therefore, an appeal must be filed with the Qingshi City Court to initiate a second instance trial!
“An appeal has been filed,” Su Yu said.

Civil appeals are much simpler than criminal appeals, and the court hearings are also much faster.

only.
"I don't know the specific court date yet; I have to wait for the court's notification," Su Yu said softly, then pursed her lips and said:

"Senior brother, you should rest. You've been traveling all day. I'll take care of the rest."

"Ah."

Xu Liang nodded, and without being coy, prepared to go upstairs to rest.

Yang Ruoxi's eyes lit up, and she was about to step forward when, unexpectedly, a slender hand grabbed her wrist from behind.

"Sister Yang, you shouldn't rest. After all, your senior brother is in charge of the trial. You'll just be driving for the rest of the time, so you're not that tired."

Su Yu smiled and stopped Yang Ruoxi.

Without even glancing at Xu Liang, who had just walked a short distance away, he spoke:

"It's a pity. If I had stayed with my senior brother, he probably wouldn't have been so tired."

Yang Ruoxi: ?

"What do you mean?!" Yang Ruoxi stared wide-eyed at the person in front of her in disbelief.

Su Yu pursed her lips. "It's nothing."

Yang Ruoxi was somewhat angry. She glanced at Xu Liang, who had already gone upstairs, and immediately whispered:

You damn green tea b*tch!

"Ignore you!"

But it was clear that Su Yu didn't care about her insult.

Yang Ruoxi could only sulk alone and rest on the first floor. Before long, for some reason, she managed to cheer herself up again.

As time passed at the law firm, the people in the upper city also transferred the evidence and filed a report.

Lawyers' licenses are generally managed by the local judicial bureau where the license was issued.

For example, Xu Liang obtained his professional license in Shangcheng, so Zhao Hailong would report the evidence to Shangcheng.

Zhao Hailong's professional license is issued in Qingshi City.

4 month 4 day.

A case of irrefutable evidence, primarily concerning litigiousness and arbitrary charges, appeared on the desk of the Qingshi City Justice Bureau.

same time.

Lin Fuqiang made a phone call to Xu Liang.

According to what the other party said
Some information about Liu Shengnan's son, Zhang Hui, has been investigated and clarified.

Three years ago, during the second year of junior high school, the student's academic performance was indeed not good enough for a provincial key high school. However, someone paid money to pull strings and the student was able to enter a provincial key high school through special means.

Further investigation along this line eventually revealed...

The person behind this is named Zhang An!
The other party first used personal connections to smooth things over, and in the end, they got an ordinary student who couldn't even get into a top municipal school into a top provincial school!

Zhang An has an identity that Xu Liang is both familiar with and unfamiliar with: he is the older brother of Zhang Yong, the owner of Jianghe Pickled Vegetable Factory and the head of Jianghe Sunshine Disabled Persons Shelter Center!
This message was released.

It became clear instantly!

At the same time, Su Yu's appeal was successful, and the second civil trial was scheduled to be held on April 20 at the Intermediate People's Court of Qingshi City, the capital of Lanshan Province!
4 month 8 day.

Recently, several people from the Bureau of Justice contacted Zhao Hailong, and Zhao Hailong realized that something was wrong.

Fortunately, the questions asked by the other party were all old stories, not current cases, but they still made him very uneasy.

After the inquiry, the Qingshi Municipal Bureau of Justice conducted a follow-up investigation with the Jiangcheng Municipal Bureau of Justice before finally leaving.

That afternoon.

A document appeared before Xu Liang; it was a report from Jiang Cheng dated March 18th and 19th!

Among them was information about reporting the Hongfu District Conscience Affairs Office in Hanhai City!
The person in charge is named.
Zhang Hong!!!

4 month 14 day.

Jiang Cheng sent another message to Xu Liang.

In other words, Liu Shengnan's son, Zhang Hui, was not accepted by a music luminary because of his outstanding musical talent.

Zhang An, the manager of the kimchi factory, bribed the other party with money, offering 150,000 yuan to have Zhang Hui taken on as a disciple under the pretext of valuing talent.

During this time, Liu Shengnan had no idea about money and only thought that Zhang An was being grateful for her child's sake.

Xu Liang scoffed at this.

We are still waiting for the trial to begin.

4 month 18 day.

On the eve of the trial, Zhao Hailong and Cheng Jia began to get busy as the other party took more thorough action regarding the body.

For example, one could rationalize the corrosion marks on the corpse's face and have a forensic appraisal agency take it over.

The cause of the death was attributed to human factors, such as the kimchi factory workers' hasty handling of the body.

finally.

This information was handed over to Zhao Hailong, who began to organize the logic and devise the angle from which Xu Liang would attack.

Finally, Zhao Hailong breathed a sigh of relief.

Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle. During the first trial, he learned about all the evidence that Xu Liang had found!
He's erased all the evidence now, so what if another fight breaks out?
Xu Liang's concealment over the past two weeks will be wiped out in an instant!

4 month 19 day.

The day before the second trial.

Xu Liang, Su Yu, and Yang Ruoxi went to Qingshi City to participate in the second trial.

Zhao Haili and Cheng Jia, with a relatively relaxed attitude, still went to Qingshi City for trial.

only.
Have you thought about how to handle this during the trial?

Qingshi City.

Inside a hotel, Cheng Jia looked at Zhao Hailong, took a deep breath, and asked in a low voice.

Compared to the first instance, the second instance was much simpler.

why?
Because in the vast majority of second trials, the original judgment of the first trial is upheld!
That's why Zhang An chose to bribe Liu Shengnan.

Not to mention that the current state of the corpse provides a 'reasonable' explanation for Xu Liang's evidence. Unless the other party produces other evidence, the materials brought in the first instance will be completely ineffective!
so.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they will likely win the second trial!

"I'm very confident!"

Zhao Hailong exhaled a breath of stale air and nodded.

I'm confident. I'm very confident, that's good!

Cheng Jia breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

In situations where one's life is at stake, nothing is more reassuring than these words!
Yes, during the first trial, Xu Liang caught us off guard, but we managed to pull through.

There's no reason why they could erase the opposing party's evidence before the second trial and then lose the case.

This is unreasonable!

Just as the two were anxiously preparing for their trial
In a daze, a voice rang in their ears.

"dududu~"

Is this a phone call?

Zhao Hailong paused, took out his phone, and found that the caller ID showed an unknown person.

In other words, this is an unfamiliar number!
Who is this?
Zhao Hailong frowned, dialed the number, and held the phone to his ear.

The next second.
A voice emerged.

"Hello? Is this Mr. Zhao Hailong? This is the Bar Association."
