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

Chapter 225 I'm Not a Pervert! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]

"Where did the editor-in-chief go!?"

"Has anyone seen the editor-in-chief? I urgently need to speak with him!"

Zhang Tao's tone was anxious, and his face showed an urgent expression. He was clearly too lazy to pay attention to that sarcastic person who was full of sour remarks.

The other person's name is Wang Hao. In addition to being in the same batch as him when he joined the company, he is also his college classmate.

During their university years, they enjoyed the so-called 'power', running for class monitor, participating in student council, and so on. They used the smallest amount of power to make things difficult for others, thereby highlighting their own uniqueness and sense of superiority.

The conflict between the two stemmed from a dormitory inspection: no trash cans, no one lying on the beds, and no books on the desks.
Zhang Tao never expected that he would run into the other person again after graduating and joining the company.

But things are different now; he's long since stopped bothering with the other person!
"If all else fails, what about the editor?!" Zhang Tao asked anxiously.

Jiang Cheng's case. He must immediately publish the manuscript he wrote in the past. Once published, it will surely sweep across the entire society in an unprecedented manner!
"I'm off work early!"

Wang Hao uttered a sentence as he looked Zhang Tao up and down.

He paused, then spoke meaningfully.
"Ha, unlike people like us, who, because of someone who changes their tune with the wind, sees a big case come out and then claims they've wanted to interview about it for a long time, even saying they have firsthand information."

"As a result, the manager was almost demoted, which also affected innocent people, causing the entire company to start working overtime."

"But I happily took the position of team leader."

As he spoke, Wang Hao glanced at him and sneered.

"I wonder if I'm ashamed to be sitting in this spot!"

The words fell.

The crowd instantly smelled gunpowder, creating a tense atmosphere.

Zhang Tao frowned and stared at Wang Hao. He was about to speak when Li Ye, who was standing next to him, couldn't hold back any longer and immediately retorted angrily.

"How come I never noticed how shameless you were back in school!?"

"The team leader position isn't something you can just appoint yourself; it's a normal promotion. If you're really good, you can get promoted too. If you can't get promoted, then don't make a fuss!"

Li Ye's slightly chubby face showed anger.

He put down the camera in his hand, pointed a finger at Wang Hao's nose, and started cursing.

"They're always saying 'sour grapes' because they can't have them, but they want to follow in others' footsteps to gain traffic but are too embarrassed to do so."

"You're so hypocritical! Even a prostitute wouldn't be as shameless as you!"

A heated exchange ensued.

The office lobby was completely silent.

All of a sudden.

A dozen or so colleagues who were still working overtime were woken up by the noise. They looked up and stared at each other, looking at their workstations and the sounds of the argument coming from the doorway.

That's incredibly aggressive!
Feeling the gazes of his colleagues, Wang Hao's face instantly turned red, as if it were being burned.

He immediately stood up, glaring at the other person with a mixture of anger and embarrassment, and said:

"I was just joking with you guys, how can you not take a joke?!"

Li Ye showed no respect whatsoever, offering no way out whatsoever.

"I was fucking joking with you, why are you getting so angry?"

The other party was like a mad dog, inexplicably targeting the two of them from the moment they joined the company. In the past, they were too lazy to pay attention to them, but now Li Ye couldn't hold back anymore.

They tolerated you before you got promoted, and they'll tolerate you after you get promoted.
Then wasn't this promotion a complete waste?!

"Zhang Tao, don't think you're so great just because you've had some good luck!"

Wang Hao was utterly enraged and ashamed; the gazes of those around him felt like nails, fueling his anger.

"Who in the company doesn't know what you two are up to?"

"They always talk about going out to conduct interviews and investigations, eating and drinking at the company's expense, but after a month they haven't dug up any news!"

"Just two days ago, they approved a huge sum of money, saying they were going out to find a sensational story. But that's just a small civil case. How many people in the company don't know about it?! You couldn't dig up anything worthy of being published in a journal!"

"He just wants to spend money secretly."

"Call me team leader!" Li Ye retorted.

Those three words hit the nail on the head, and Wang Hao's anger surged instantly.

"Call your mom!"

As he was about to step forward, Li Ye showed no fear. Zhang Tao naturally supported his brother, and besides, he had long disliked the other party, so he made a move to attack.

Seeing this, colleagues rushed forward to break up the fight.

Just as the two sides were locked in a dispute and on the verge of a physical fight,
A loud sound broke the silence.

"What's all the noise about?!"

Are you the only people in the whole building working overtime?

"Do you know that other companies are laughing at us?!"

Suddenly, a dignified voice came from the doorway, causing everyone in the office hall to pause and instinctively turn their heads to look.

But then they saw a middle-aged man staring at them with a grim expression.

This person is naturally the company's editor-in-chief!

Upon seeing this, everyone immediately let go, and Wang Hao, looking resentful, straightened his tie.

The same applies to Zhang Tao and Li Ye.

The editor-in-chief frowned and took a few steps forward.

"what happened?"

"What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket?!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Hao immediately turned the tables, saying, "Editor-in-Chief Chen, I was just joking. Who would have thought these two couldn't take a joke and would make a move to hit someone? I had no choice but to..."

Can't take a joke? You're going to hit someone?
The editor-in-chief's eyes narrowed, and he subconsciously looked at Zhang Tao and Li Ye.

Wang Hao gloated.

The reason he was able to get into the company, slack off all day, and still get promoted was purely because the manager was his uncle!
With this connection, even the editor-in-chief has to give me face.

Unexpectedly.

Zhang Tao ignored Wang Hao, took two steps forward, and whispered something to him.

That is, after this operation.

The editor-in-chief, who had been full of dissatisfaction, was stunned for a moment, then confused, and finally shocked!

"Are you telling the truth!?"

The editor-in-chief's pupils dilated, his breathing became rapid, and his usual composure vanished in an instant.

Zhang Tao didn't say anything, but handed several photos to Li Ye. The photos were the images taken when Xu Liang submitted evidence during the trial!
Upon seeing this, the editor-in-chief's eyes widened instantly, and his pupils contracted.

Wang Hao was a little confused, and he tentatively said something.

"Editor-in-Chief?"

Upon hearing this, the editor-in-chief gradually came to his senses.

Li Ye rolled his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"There were many colleagues present at the court hearing, all from Qingshi City."

“They are locals, so the publication will be quick. Tao and I left the courtroom early and rented a car to head back.”

"I was writing the article on the way to the office, thinking I'd finish it and send it out, but I didn't expect this."

"I argued with him for half an hour."

Half an hour! In the news, speed is everything – time is money!

When faced with a breaking news story, even a minute's delay could mean someone else gets there first, let alone half an hour!
Thinking of this, the editor-in-chief was furious and turned to look at Wang Hao.

"Wang Hao! Apologize to Team Leader Zhang!"

Wang Hao froze, and a look of panic flashed in his eyes the next second.

"What?!" "I'm making you apologize!" the editor-in-chief shouted angrily again.

Apologize?

"My uncle..." Feeling the attention of those around him, Wang Hao's face immediately turned red.

"I don't care who your uncle is! If you don't apologize in ten seconds, you're fired!" the editor-in-chief said.

Hear the words.

Wang Hao's face was a kaleidoscope of colors, reds and greens, all converging together, until finally...
"I'm sorry," Wang Hao said, his face grim.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tao and the editor-in-chief ignored him and quickly walked into the office to deal with the details of the manuscript.

Li Ye glanced at Wang Hao from head to toe, recalling Xu Liang's imposing manner during the court hearing.

He mocked:

"You're not happy? Then you'll have to take it!"

After saying that, he left the hall, leaving Wang Hao with a livid face, feeling the stares of those around him and his face burning with embarrassment.

Watching the other person's departing figure, Wang Hao clenched his fists.

at the same time.

Hanhai City.

Hongfu Street, Hongfu District, at the Conscience Office.

"It's been so long since I've had a sofa, it feels amazing!"

Although it was already night.

However, Xu Liang and his two companions still went to the law firm first.

The moment she opened the door, Yang Ruoxi kicked off her high heels, skipped over to the reception sofa, and collapsed onto it.

Feeling the springiness of the sofa, she couldn't help but relax.

The Jiangcheng case, though not as difficult as the Sunzhou case, was handled with the same intensity.

but.
The sense of frustration Yang Ruoxi felt was definitely much greater than that of Sun Zhou!

Firstly, regarding the underhanded tactics and dirty tricks, if it were a lawyer without connections, or one who considered themselves superior and unwilling to use connections, the case would have stalled by the 19th.

Not to mention that during the first trial, no matter what Liu Shengnan said, the judge did not accept it and completely favored the defendant.

This unfair perception filled her with rage!
Fortunately
The case is closed.

Can't you have any manners?

Xu Liang looked disgusted and then picked up the high heels that Yang Ruoxi had kicked off.

The high heels are a classic black with a red sole and a pointed toe, giving them a captivating beauty.

Of course, Xu Liang wasn't a foot fetishist and had no interest in such things.

"If you keep leaving your shoes lying around, I'll confiscate them!"

Xu Liang said angrily, while Su Yu took out the fruit she had bought on her way home, washed it, and sat down next to Xu Liang.

She tucked her hair behind her ear, peeled open a lychee, and used her jade-like fingers to push the white flesh into Xu Liang's mouth.

"Gulu."

Xu Liang chewed for a moment, then swallowed, looking at Yang Ruoxi with disdain.

"Can you imitate a little fish?!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruoxi, who was lying down, immediately pouted and sat up properly, but muttered something under her breath.

"I'm so tired, I've been running around all day."

As she spoke, her ten jade-like feet twisted restlessly.

Xu Liang glanced at it casually, then looked away.

After the roughhousing.

He also put away his playful thoughts and looked at the two of them. After thinking for a moment, he asked a question.

"By the way, who among you wants to take responsibility for the subsequent criminal cases?"

Qi Tao's case is divided into two parts.

One part involves civil cases being escalated to criminal cases, which is what Xu Liang is currently doing.

The second thing
This naturally refers to the so-called criminal aspect!

Qi Tao's civil lawsuit was withdrawn, but with Xu Liang's help, he has refiled a criminal lawsuit.

But the new round of court hearings
To be honest, Xu Liang couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

"The evidence has all been prepared. The evidence from the kimchi factory has also been arranged by Zheng Shijie. We can just determine the sentence directly in the first trial."

Xu Liang said while eating lychees:

"The case shouldn't have any problems; we just need to proceed with the decision-making process."

"Of course, if the defendant's lawyer is very capable, then I might as well step in."

If Zhao Hailong and Zhang Yong can turn the tables with such irrefutable evidence, Xu Liang should change his surname!

In addition, public opinion surrounding the case
Xu Liang thought about the reporters in the audience during the trial, including Zhang Tao. After Xu Liang revealed the Zheng Mei case, he realized that although Zhang Tao was young, he was very good at guiding public opinion!
Once the other party becomes aware of the case, what about the subsequent public opinion?
"The probability is very high, well, it's terrifying!"

Xu Liang spoke with lingering fear.

Although this kind of morally depraved case may not have the same impact as the Sun Zhou case, public opinion on it will only rise, not fall!
Those not affected by the Sun Zhou case will generally not care, but this kind of thing that goes beyond the moral bottom line of ordinary people is different. The shock brought by the words should not be underestimated!
In that case, the case becomes a bizarre affair.

It's easy to fight, and you can gain a lot of fame!
If nothing unexpected happens, Qi Tao's criminal case will directly produce a top-notch lawyer!
Putting aside their abilities, their reputation alone is at least at this level!

In the past, how could a top lawyer have become one in less than ten or twenty years?
However, this case was practically predetermined. Whoever Xu Liang put on the show became a rising star. In fact, this was just a small part of the traffic. The focus of public opinion was on Xu Liang, and the gold medal was only created by the overflow of traffic, which was terrifying.
Who are you planning to send?

Xu Liang paused, looking at the two people beside him.

As her own number one tagalong, Little Sheep didn't earn much in a year, but she expended a lot of energy.

The situation was similar for Xiao Xiaoyu; in fact, the other party fainted on the day they arrived at the law firm, which made Xu Liang feel guilty.

The excess bandwidth can be given to anyone, since no one will lose out!

Su Yu glanced at Yang Ruoxi, whose eyes were clear and who exuded a naive charm. Her gaze flickered slightly as she spoke:

"Senior brother, how about I do it?"

"Sister Yang may not be in good condition. She made frequent mistakes in court. Handing this case over to her may not be the best solution for the client."

She spoke softly.

"I have some experience, and I did a decent job defending Wu Yong back then, barely keeping up with my senior's pace."

Xu Liang seemed to be deep in thought.

Yang Ruoxi's hair immediately stood on end, her eyes became firm, and she straightened up and sat cross-legged on the sofa.

"Why am I not feeling well!?"

"That was clearly Liu Shengnan's deliberate targeting. As for this case, you can leave it to me. I'll definitely handle it perfectly!"

The case has been moved to this stage.

Even if Yang Ruoxi were to fall asleep during the trial, or even stand up and do a ballet, the judge would probably be speechless and rule in her favor.

"Senior brother, I'm really worried about Sister Yang."

Su Yu smiled brightly, but in an instant, a trace of worry appeared in her eyes.

Yang Ruoxi grew increasingly anxious. Standing barefoot on the blanket, she patted her chest, which appeared to be surging with activity, and vehemently assured them:

"I'm sure I can handle it!"

"You don't believe me, do you, Yarn!?"

Seeing this, Xu Liang became even more hesitant.
