my wife is a consul

Chapter 64 suddenly enlightened

On July 7, the much-anticipated Kato Masaichi serial child abuse case officially entered the pre-trial preparation stage. In the morning, the two sides selected jurors.

According to the application submitted by Shan Jingfan, in order to ensure the fairest trial of the case, the scope of jurors should be diversified as much as possible. The ten jurors should be composed of three Dongying people, three Westerners and four Zhongzhou people. people pose.

Very rarely, during the selection of jurors, the prosecution and the defense started a fierce competition. Both Cheng Lingyu and Shan Jingfan rejected the juror candidates agreed by the other side several times. In addition, both sides would ask the jurors many questions. In the end, the whole day, Only three jurors were identified, one each from Zhongzhou, Westerners and Dongying.

The court had to announce that three days later, a new selection of jurors would be carried out, because the jury candidates originally selected by the court were rejected by both parties in seven or eight, and the selection of juror candidates needed to be re-prepared.

This lawsuit is also destined to be recorded in the historical annals of the East China Sea legal circle.

As the second prosecutor, Lu Ming spent most of his time quietly observing.

Our strategy for selecting defenders has long been discussed and determined. Especially for Orientals and Westerners, try to choose women, and when answering questions, you must show candidates who have basic sympathy. For Central Africans, try to choose men, and reflect your personality from the questions. The staunch kind.

Lu Ming had some disagreements at the time, but the result of everyone's unanimous discussion did not persist.

The whole day was full of noise in the courtroom. When the court adjourned at [-]:[-] p.m., Lu Ming got up immediately and walked through the side door. As for the main door, the swarming media from outside was even more troublesome. Moreover, it was focused on the spotlight. The limelight is destined to be Cheng Lingyu and Shan Jingfan.

……

"Lu Bian!"

In the corridor, Lu Ming heard someone calling him behind him, turned around, but it was Cheng Ye who came.

The lawyer of Liu Hanhuang Law Firm, Lu Ming's first case, was also the lawyer of the "good son" when he cleared up Bisi's grievances.

Cheng also looked at Lu Ming with complicated emotions.

A few months later, the identities and statuses of the two are no longer comparable. This lawyer Lu Qianxing has changed from a rookie lawyer to a talented debater whose name is known to everyone in the Beiguan legal circle. He became a registered lawyer in the first year Promoted to the second dan, he was even more popular than his boss Liu Hanxuan back then.

Moreover, Liu Hanxuan, who technically defeated his boss, has become a pimple in the eyes of his boss Liu Hanxuan. It is rumored that the boss is planning to spend a lot of effort to hire this young lawyer to pass the file, and it is likely that he will offer a generous offer from a senior partner condition.

No wonder, not only was he promoted to the second-tier lawyer in the shortest time, which set a record, but he was also able to participate in such a high-profile case as Kato Masa's case. The future is bright.

As for myself, after a few months, I was still a small lawyer in that firm, or in other words, there hasn't been much change in the past few years, as if, in my life, I can already see what the end is.

Thinking about it, Cheng Ye sighed softly in his heart, but then he adjusted his mentality and smiled: "Lu Bian, I won't go to the wedding banquet for your promotion to the second dan!" He took out a red envelope from his briefcase, "Congratulations Lu Bian After the debate, I will show my ambitions!"

Lu Ming was slightly taken aback. He was very busy with various things recently, and he didn't plan to hold any wedding banquet, but Wang Dayan mentioned it a few times. After all, this is a very grand wedding event, and it is always necessary to hold a banquet to entertain guests, with a sense of ceremony.

After thinking about it, Lu Ming took the red envelope and said with a smile, "Thank you, Lawyer Cheng." Just like in the previous life, when people give you a red envelope in person, it would be too embarrassing if you insisted on it.

But during this process, it is obvious that the red envelope is prepared, as if, knowing that he will appear in court today, he came here to wait for him.

Seeing Cheng Ye hesitated to speak, Lu Ming smiled and said, "Lawyer Cheng, what's the matter?"

Cheng also seemed to be worried about not being able to start the topic. Seeing Lu Ming asking the question, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but shook his head and said, "Originally, I didn't want to trouble you, Lu Bian. I have a very good friend who is a reporter. I always wanted to give You do an exclusive interview..."

Lu Ming waved his hands immediately after hearing this, and said with a smile, "Forget it! Brother Cheng, let me tell you the truth, the Dongying people's case is too sensitive, how many media want inside information, if I release the information without authorization, Cheng Jianfei will tell you the truth." Don't be in a hurry!"

"Lu Bian, don't worry, she definitely didn't want to get exclusive information about your case, but as a Zhongzhou lawyer, you broke the record of being the youngest to be promoted to the second division. In the past, this kind of record was held by Westerners, so , she admires you very much, that's why she came up with the idea of ​​doing an exclusive interview with you, and all the interview questions will be reviewed by you in advance, and she is a reporter for "Daily Imperial News", not a third-rate Tabloid!"

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Let's talk about it after the limelight!" He said in his heart, good guy, that's even worse, this is one of the largest newspapers in the empire, although it is not popular in the four northern provinces, but the upper class is still I will learn about the dynamics of the core area of ​​​​the empire through the Chinese version of the newspaper. If I want to put my photo on it, isn't that a wanted warrant that I logged out?
Cheng also sighed, "Well, since you are so determined, let's talk about it later."

Lu Ming thought for a while, then took out a business card from his briefcase and handed it over, "Lawyer Cheng, this is my latest contact information, as well as my private contact information, please let her have time to contact my people, do you want to do it or not?" For an exclusive interview, we will talk about it after we communicate!" On the business card, there is the number of Wang-Lu Law Firm in Ji Niao Building, and there is also a private number, which is the phone number of Room 408 of Wendebao Club.

Cheng Ye was overjoyed immediately, and quickly took the business card: "Okay, okay, thank you!" In this case, this matter is considered a success for him. As for the final interview, it depends on his friends and Lu. Communication results of the lawyer team.

When Lu Ming walked out, he opened the red envelope and looked at it. He was slightly taken aback. It was a hundred-yuan red note.

In fact, nowadays, with gifts, ordinary colleagues’ weddings and funerals are only one or two yuan, and 5 yuan is for close friends. Naturally, the gifts between lawyers are more generous, but 10 yuan and 20 yuan are about the same, directly 100 yuan , and an ordinary lawyer like Cheng Ye, either has a very close relationship, or the gift money is given to the person who weighs a lot, and if the gift is less, he is scolding him.

This process is also interesting.

Thinking about it, Lu Ming walked out of the east gate of the court, and soon, Sun Luting appeared in front of him.

The black car that was originally parked under the shade of the tree also slowly drove over and stopped under the steps.

"Master, my mother-in-law is here..." Sun Luting looked a little hesitant, looking at his ears, they seemed to be a little redder than usual, the kind of traces of being twisted by others, but he is so old, shouldn't it?
Lu Ming was startled.

Realizing that Lu Ming seemed to have noticed his ears, Sun Luting suddenly blushed and became even more embarrassed, "Master, she..."

"Young master, how come you don't see me! You are the one who is tired of looking at me!" A small figure stepped out from among the green trees beside the steps, "You are like this, procrastinating and dragging your mother-in-law and mother. Pack you!"

The one who walked over was a country woman with a blue flower jacket and black trousers, her gray hair was combed neatly, her face was dark so no wrinkles appeared, her eyes were like electricity, she was not an old woman of her age It should be sharp.

"Young master, the old slave, Erniang Sun, greets you!" The woman clasped her fists and spoke very quickly. It seemed that she had a pungent personality who was very good at making things happen.

Lu Ming smiled wryly in his heart. The first time Sun Luting met the "Holy Envoy", he said that his wife would be happy too, but later, he never mentioned this again, but he didn't want to, and the other party came directly to him.

It seems that they are here to serve the "Holy Envoy".

Sun Erniang, this name also makes people feel a little weird.

Feel free to do whatever you want, in fact, to work for the "Holy Envoy", logically, it is your own entourage, or the seeds planted by the ancestors who don't know how many years ago. Even if the ancestors buried a lot in the past, there are still some inheritances today, which are rare.

But they only know the "Holy Messenger", which is considered a firewall, and the inheritance of the "Holy Messenger" is their own firewall.

However, for various reasons, in my current situation, this firewall is useless.

According to the original assumptions of the ancestors, these people, who had not passed all kinds of tests, should not be able to see themselves.

"Well, it turned out to be my aunt." Lu Ming pondered wildly, and said with a smile: "It's been hard work coming from a long distance, so how about it, old uncle, you can go around with my aunt today, and also, the downstairs room, aunt live anywhere!"

"Master, what aunt and uncle, you call me Erniang, call him old grandson! This man is so unruly!" Sun Erniang glared at Sun Luting while speaking.

Sun Luting was obsequious, "I originally wanted the young master to call me that..." But Erniang Sun gave her a stare, and she was immediately too frightened to speak.

Lu Ming couldn't help laughing. Speaking of which, if there was a world, this Sun Tiezhang should be a famous hero, but he has bronchitis.

Alas, the end of the martial arts world, the elegy of the Jianghu, today there is no martial arts, and there is no Jianghu, these people are no different from ordinary citizens.

"Young master, I just came to see you. If you want to protect you well, I'm definitely not as good as this old ghost. You can leave me alone. I'll go see the envoy later!" Erniang Sun lowered her voice.

Lu Ming smiled and nodded.

……

After going to the Royal Alice Institute of Technology, Lu Ming's thoughts on how to deal with this case became clearer, and he was in a good mood.

When she got home, Zhen asked timidly, "Master, can I celebrate with you today?"

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was celebrating his promotion to the second dan. Mrs. Zhen also heard what Pan Mila said. Although she didn't quite understand it, it was a great thing to know, but she also prepared a table. Cai, it's a pity that I was too busy that day and didn't go home at all. Recently, because I was so busy with the Dongying people's case, and because the case was complicated, I didn't have time to go home. I often sat and frowned and thought, and she didn't dare to disturb Own.

But today, when she finally saw that her face had changed from cloudy to sunny, she cautiously brought up this matter again.

Looking at her delicate and soft, Lu Ming suddenly felt a little sore in his heart. If she was separated from her alone, he would hardly be able to survive in this world. Her mood is determined by her emotions.

However, there is an extremely powerful Bizhu in her body. I don't know if she will disappear completely one day.

"Celebrate, celebrate today!" Seeing her beautiful eyes full of anticipation, Lu Ming forced a smile.

Mrs. Zhen was overjoyed at once, "Okay, sir, then I'll prepare it!" Cooking that big table of dishes was a lot of work, but she wasn't afraid of trouble at all, and was extremely happy, but then she said cautiously: "That's right. , just to prepare for a long time, Lord, don't worry..."

"No hurry..." Lu Ming gently pulled her slender hand, causing her body to freeze immediately.

"Come, sit with me for a while, and I will prepare meals with you!"

"Ah?" Zhen Shi was stunned, but she was already pulled by Lu Ming, and she couldn't help following Lu Ming to the sofa. Lu Ming sat down and pushed gently. His face was flushed, and he curled up into Lu Ming's arms like a cat, not daring to move, let alone raise his eyes to look at Lu Ming.

If Zhenshi fainted from excitement, Lu Ming was already prepared to tell her to go back immediately after Bizhu came out.

Fortunately, it probably wasn't the first time I hugged her gently, so the reaction wasn't as intense as the first time.

The beauty in her arms is weak and boneless, and she doesn't seem to have any weight when she sits in her arms, but the smooth and soft touch is still there, that kind of taste is like holding cotton candy in a spring dream, I am afraid that any man will be affected by it. Can't get this kind of stimulation.

But Lu Ming didn't have distracting thoughts in his mind, he just hugged her gently, his heart was full of tenderness, smelling the fragrance of her hair, just thought, hope, you won't become illusory, and will always be with me until I grow old.
