Me! A disgraced celebrity! Starting by seeking justice for impoverished students.

Tao Yi took a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly, and spoke clearly, word by word.

"Hello comrade, I would like to apply for legal aid for the families of martyrs."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Lei immediately nodded and asked considerately.

"Sure, could you tell me more about our situation?"

As he spoke, he picked up his notebook, preparing to record the details.

Jiang Chen gave Tao Yi a look and nodded.

Tao Yi then began to tell her story.

"Comrade, my niece is the child of a martyr. Her father was a martyr who died while guarding the border, and her mother also died in the line of duty during the fight against the epidemic."

"Now she has been assaulted by someone who is rich and powerful, and is even accusing her of extortion."

"Although we won the first instance trial, the opposing side appealed, saying they want to overturn all the first instance verdicts!"

"We're at our wits' end and want to ask for your help..."

After saying a few words, Zhou Lei's professional smile froze instantly.

His face darkened instantly.

Relatives of martyrs?

Violated?

Suing someone only to be accused of extortion?

This situation... is absolutely terrible!

He had worked at the work station for three years and had seen many disputes involving military families, but this was the first time he had encountered such a terrible situation.

He didn't dare to delay for even a moment and quickly nodded to Tao Yi.

"Please wait a moment!"

"I can't make that decision myself. I'll get our director out right away!"

How could a mere salesman like him possibly handle something like this?

After saying that, he turned and ran into the inner room, looking very anxious.

Less than half a minute later, a tall, middle-aged man with a soldier's sharp features strode out.

It was Director Wang Jianguo.

His face darkened after hearing only a few hurried sentences from Zhou Lei's report.

As soon as he reached the counter, his gaze first fell on Tao Yi, then swept over Jiang Chen, who was holding a live-streaming phone next to him, and he raised an eyebrow slightly.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen took a half step forward, speaking frankly.

"Hello Director Wang, I am Jiang Chen, Ms. Tao's lawyer in the first instance."

"I'm here with my family to apply for assistance today. The live stream is for providing legal education to netizens. If it's inconvenient, I'll turn it off now."

Wang Jianguo waved his hand, his voice loud and clear, with the decisiveness characteristic of soldiers.

"No need to turn it off! It's fine to leave it on."

"If the family members of martyrs have been wronged and come to us for help, there's nothing wrong with them being there."

"This is a good opportunity to let the whole society see the attitude of our military dependents' assistance station!"

"We will never let the martyrs shed blood and tears again, and we will never let those who bully military families go unpunished!"

These words carried weight and the live stream chat exploded instantly!

Wow! That's so bold! It really elevates the whole message!

[No wonder he's a former soldier! He speaks frankly and acts decisively!]

I initially thought they'd try to evade the question, but they confidently said they'd be live-streaming. They're so assertive!

With this attitude, the matter is settled! The opposing lawyer has really messed up this time!

Wang Jianguo gestured for the two to sit down in the reception area next door, personally poured them water, and looked serious.

"Family member, please speak slowly and explain the whole story clearly."

"As long as the situation is true and complies with policy, we will definitely see it through to the end."

Tao Yi glanced at Jiang Chen beside her.

Seeing him nod slightly, she calmed herself down.

Following that, he began to explain, word by word, the instructions Jiang Chen had given him on the way.

He began by recounting Tao Wanwan's background.

Her father died in a border conflict, and her mother died on the front line of the fight against the epidemic. The little girl was all alone and finally got into university.

Later at the university, Tao Wanwan was forced to drink alcohol at a party and then taken to a hotel where she was sexually assaulted.

Then the other party's family came to her door, offering her 300,000 yuan to coerce her into signing a letter of understanding, and then turned around and accused her of extortion.

Finally, it was mentioned that the opposing party hired a lawyer with a high price tag, and despite losing the first instance, they were still dissatisfied and insisted on appealing to win a not guilty verdict.

She spoke slowly, her voice choked with suppressed sobs.

Without embellishment, it simply presents the most hurtful facts one by one.

"My child is only nineteen years old, and now he doesn't dare to leave the house, and he can't go to school."

"The other side is rich and powerful; we ordinary families simply can't afford to resist!"

"I heard... we have a fast track for the families of martyrs here. We were really desperate, so we came here to beg the organization to help our child."

After he finished speaking, the reception area fell silent.

Wang Jianguo sat opposite him, his face growing increasingly grim.

His brows were furrowed, and his knuckles were clenched so tightly they turned white.

He served in the army for over twenty years and there are two kinds of things he can't stand the most.

First, they are bullying ordinary people; second, they are wronging the families of martyrs!

Now you have both!

The martyrs risked their lives to protect their country, but the children they left behind are being bullied in their hometowns and even falsely accused of extortion. Anyone would be furious to hear that!

boom!

Wang Jianguo slammed his hand on the table, his voice filled with barely suppressed anger.

"This is absolutely outrageous!"

"They dare to bully the descendants of martyrs like this, and even dare to bite back and distort the truth?"

"Do they really think nobody can control them?"

He turned and shouted into the inner room, "Xiao Zhou! Immediately check the martyr's identity verification channel and prioritize retrieving the files for verification!"

"Also, contact the criminal defense lawyers at the assistance center immediately and get my best team over here!"

"Our station will personally oversee this case!"

"Tell the legal team that not only do we need to win the second trial, but we also need to thoroughly expose all the egregious acts of obstruction of testimony and infringement upon the families of martyrs, and report the maximum sentence to higher authorities!"

"Yes! I'll do it right away!" Zhou Lei replied and immediately ran to his workstation.

The live stream chat was already buzzing!

[Wow! I got goosebumps when he slammed his hand on the table!]

[That was so satisfying! Having an organization backing you up makes all the difference!]

Wait a minute, don't you guys think Tao Yi's words were incredibly insightful?

Yes! Every sentence hits the nail on the head, the tact is just right, it's heartbreaking to hear!

[There must be a mastermind behind this! Without a doubt, it's Jiang Chen who taught him!]

[Nonsense! Who is Jiang Chen? He's a shrewd old fox when it comes to lawsuits. He knows exactly how to phrase things in a way that evokes empathy and aligns with policy support!]

No wonder Jiang Chen said he didn't need to appear in court for the second trial; this is practically summoning the authorities!

Wang Jianguo suppressed his anger, looked at Tao Yi, and softened his tone.

"Family members, please don't worry."

"Once your identities are verified, we'll open a case for you immediately!"

"For the second instance trial, we will send a professional legal team to court, and we will handle all the procedures!"

"This is not over yet; we are not letting this go wrong by bullying the families of martyrs."

Jiang Chen, sitting to the side, added at the opportune moment: "Director Wang, I have brought all the evidence materials from the first instance, the judgment document, and a copy of the opposing party's appeal. The complete case file can be handed over to the aid lawyer at any time."

Wang Jianguo glanced at him, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes.

No wonder the family members were able to find this place and explain the situation so clearly.

It turns out there was a knowledgeable lawyer paving the way behind the scenes!

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Attorney Jiang."

"Leave the rest to us!"

Jiang Chen smiled with satisfaction and casually added a comment.

"Oh, right, Director Wang, I forgot to mention something."

"This martyr... belonged to the Chinese Army. We are the Navy office, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
