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

Chapter 191 Wu Chengjun: I'll Lend You a Hand! [A Long Chapter of 4,000 Words!]

deviation?

Xu Liang's heart tightened.

As a lawyer, what are the most difficult situations you usually encounter?
Is the opposing lawyer too much of a litigator?
Or is the case simply too difficult?

No, neither.

It happens when you start settling the commission fee, and the client suddenly starts haggling with you!
Indeed, in many cases, the lawyers agree on the price with the client from the beginning and then follow the contract.

But after the matter was completed, the other party went back on their word, saying that they were only willing to give fifty yuan out of the agreed one hundred yuan, and even said that the work was very simple and that fifty yuan was already a lot.
This is commonly seen in most locksmiths.

"The commission fee was agreed upon from the beginning!"

Xu Liang quickly spoke up, giving the other party no chance of getting their money back.

I have no money, but I have my life!
Since the money has already been transferred to the card, as long as I don't give it to them, there's nothing they can do.

However, it is clear that Sun Zhongmin's character is not that bad.

"No, I mean, how about another three million?"

Seeing that the other party had misunderstood him, Sun Zhongmin quickly and excitedly spoke up.

three million?
"The one who killed my son was not the so-called radioactive one, but Luo Jun!"

"You helped me avenge myself, so you are my benefactor."

Sun Zhongmin spoke, his voice very sincere.

He listened to everything the residents said.

If it's a normal commission, then there's no need to think about it.

But the other party risked their life to do things for me, and even offered a low price, so they are no different from a benefactor!
Since he had done the other person a favor, he had no reason to take advantage of them!

“The court said it would compensate me five million, but I have no use for that money. I’ll give you three million!” Sun Zhongmin said.

three million?
That adds up to four million!?

Xu Liang's eye twitched, but he immediately shook his head.

"We act in accordance with the contract, and there is no explicit provision for additional fees in the contract."

"I only want what I'm entitled to."

From the beginning, he had said that one million could solve anything.

The steel-related cases that followed are naturally included as well!
He is a man of his word!

They also have professional ethics!

"Can"

Sun Zhongmin was deeply moved; he couldn't think of any way to repay the other party.

Just as he was about to say something...

A voice suddenly sounded.

"dududu~"

Xu Liang subconsciously looked down at his pocket.

The phone in my pocket didn't vibrate.

He then looked at Wang Chao, who was standing to the side.

Wang Chao pulled a cell phone out of his pants, opened it, and saw the caller ID: Master.

"My master's phone number."

Wang Chao said something, then calculated the time and realized that he hadn't been back to work for more than a week!

"Let's dial and find out what's going on," Xu Liang said.

Wang Chao pressed the call button directly, and the next second, there was a 'beep' sound.

In Hongfu District, Hanhai City, the voice of Chen Changchun from the Criminal Investigation Brigade rang out.

"It's the 17th, have you had enough fun?"

Chen Changchun's voice, though clearly dissatisfied, did not urge him on.

After a moment's thought, Xu Liang understood why the other party had said that.

Du Tao, the police chief of Hanhai City, must have reported the situation to the other party, so they were aware of Sun Zhou's case.

Knowing this, I called Wang Chao to let him know I was safe.

"Captain Chen, Chaozi is right next to me," Xu Liang suddenly said.

Chen Changchun paused for a moment, then said:
"Okay, I feel at ease with you here."

"Keep an eye on this kid, don't let him run around!"

"Honestly, they've been in Sunzhou for over a week without even calling the police station. It's just a trip, how fun does it have to be for them to act like this?"

Chen Changchun said to Wang Chao in a sarcastic tone.

But the words came back again.

Wang Chao is an idiot.

He didn't think the other person was being sarcastic; he was just curious!

Thinking of this, Wang Chao excitedly hugged his phone and replied to Chen Changchun on the other end:
"Master, Sunzhou is so much fun!"

"You have no idea what I've been doing here."

Just recalling the experiences of the past few days, Wang Chao couldn't help but feel excited, his adrenaline surging.

tourism?

Does sightseeing, playing in the water, and hiking count as tourism?

Have you ever been to a funeral home and pried open the lock on a morgue to see a corpse?
Have you ever experienced the thrill of digging up graves all over the mountains late at night?
Did you ever experience stealing a corpse that was stolen in the past?

Joining a feast, keeping vigil, attending a funeral.
Graves being dug up, graves being dug up, and more graves being dug up; mounds of earth being dug up all over the mountains and fields.

If no one in the family dies, they go to the funeral home. Assuming the number of family members is the same, Wang Chao will always go to the funeral home one more time than the other person!
Real travel should be like this!

Just a few days.

They lived a more exciting life than most people!
"It's so much fun! Compared to that, amusement parks and theme parks are just childish entertainment facilities!"

Wang Chao happily reported to his master.

"That haunted house in the amusement park doesn't even have any ghosts, yet it's called a haunted house."

"This is false advertising!"

Sunzhou is different.

He was digging up real corpses here!

Chen Changchun fell silent.

As a police captain, he has strong verbal communication skills.

You can face the other person.
He hesitated for a long time, pondering, but still couldn't find the words to say.

After a long while, Chen Changchun finally recovered and said to Xu Liang:

“Attorney Xu, if you’re done with your work, bring this kid back with you.”

"Staying outside can easily cause trouble for others."

"Row."

Xu Liang readily agreed, and he didn't plan to stay in Sunzhou.

"I'll go back this afternoon."

"Okay, I'll hang up now," Chen Changchun said.

The call ended shortly afterward.

Seeing this, Sun Zhongmin hesitated again, but this time Xu Liang spoke directly:

"Mr. Sun, I'll head back to the law firm now."

He smiled at his client.

"If any other clients require assistance in the future, please let us know."

"The fees are reasonable, the prices are fair and transparent, and it's excellent value for money!"

Finished.

Don't wait for the other person to respond.

He then pulled Wang Chao down the mountain.

The two got into the car that had been parked in advance, stepped on the gas, and drove off.

Seeing this, Sun Zhongmin could only swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue and eventually fell silent.

Zhao Shui, who was standing to the side, lowered his head and left.

"What are you going to do?" Sun Zhongmin was taken aback.

"Go to court and get compensation."

Zhao Shui said, then paused and added, "Then we'll go to Hanhai City to buy a house."

He plans to move to Hanhai City, where Xu Liang lives.

Zhao Shuike hadn't forgotten who Luo Jun had killed back then.

There are lawyers!

Xu Liang is also a lawyer, which means that if the other party investigates any cases in the future, his life might also be threatened.
And what about yourself?

My mother and father are both dead.

The child is dead, and having reached middle age, he has no descendants. Even if he has money, there is nothing to look forward to in the future.

Since that's the case, why not move to Xu Liang's side?

Sun Zhongmin paused.

"Let's have one."

"Ah."

at the same time.

Inside the upper city.

If we were to say which region in the Eastern Kingdom currently places the most importance on Sunzhou's case, besides Arashiyama Province, it would be Uesugi.

This case
Too big!

Inside a reception room at the Supreme Court.

[This is arguably the biggest and most serious case of 2005! Is it a case of distorted humanity or moral decay?]

What should be done with 10,000 tons of radioactive steel?

According to current statistics from major hospitals, the number of people involved in steel-related incidents should be...

Wu Chengjun looked at the newspaper in his hand, his brows furrowed.

After a long while, his brows finally relaxed.

"Teacher, how is my senior brother?!" Su Yu, who had accompanied him to the Supreme Court, asked anxiously.

"Humph."

Wu Chengjun snorted, put down his newspaper, and took a sip of tea.

"That brat, he really doesn't respect me as his teacher!"

"Such a big case was exposed, and they didn't even tell the teacher, going straight to Su Guo. Is he the teacher or am I the teacher?!"

He was very dissatisfied.

It's just that I'm unhappy that I didn't catch the hint on March 11th.

Simultaneously.

Wu Chengjun was also somewhat gratified.

really.

He wasn't wrong about him back then!

Xu Liang is a moral exemplar in the legal field. When I saw his righteous indignation, I took him in as my last disciple. I was right to have made that decision!

It's not just about integrity, but also about ability.

Solving such a case in just over a week is unprecedented and unparalleled; Wu Chengjun has never seen anyone do it this way before.

"As expected of my student, he looks exactly like me when I was young."

Wu Chengjun said with satisfaction.

Seeing the old man's complaining expression, Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is Senior Brother alright?" Su Yu asked tentatively.

"Don't worry, your senior brother is fine."

Wu Chengjun said:
"This kid is smart. He contacted Shangcheng without even knowing it, and even while he was being silenced, he gave the old man a hint."

"Unfortunately, teacher, I'm too old to understand."

Wu Chengjun said with a sigh.

He's been quite the celebrity in the city these past few days.

As soon as the case broke, everyone noticed Xu Liang's handsome appearance and instinctively started inquiring about his background.

A few old friends from uptown took a quick look and discovered...
Isn't the teacher Wu Chengjun?

In an instant, some of his old friends who had not entered officialdom but instead devoted themselves to academic research became envious, and at the same time secretly wondered how they could have such a student.

Except for the Supreme Court.

Think of this.

Wu Chengjun was about to say something.

Suddenly, the door to the Supreme Court's reception room was pushed open, and Wang Yao appeared in the doorway.

"Old Wu, let's go to the conference room. Almost everyone's here; the meeting can begin."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chengjun paused, then snorted and got up to walk forward.

This is the Supreme Court.

What kind of seminars do law professors hold at the Supreme People's Court?

Of course.
Reference and guiding cases every year!
After several months, the local court had compiled and screened the cases, which were then screened again by the Supreme Court, and finally a few cases that needed to be discussed were selected.

Finally, leading figures from the academic community were invited to a symposium to discuss the case in detail.

"Squeak~"

Wu Chengjun pushed open the door to the symposium.

In an instant, a bunch of people's eyes were on him.

"There are quite a lot of people."

Wu Chengjun spoke, then walked to his seat and sat down.

Wang Yao, who was in the main seat, nodded upon seeing this.

"Alright, everyone's almost here, let's begin."

It's more of a reference and guide; this thing hasn't been in practice for very long.

In the previous life, it appeared in 11 years.

The Eastern Kingdom in this world was founded in 01, which is only four years ago.

Because the system is not yet perfect, we treat every case with great care!

Sometimes, there may only be four guiding cases in a year, or even none at all!

"In the first two years, the Supreme People's Court made the decisions on which cases would be included in the first and second batches of the case database."

"Just last year."

As he spoke, Wang Yao paused, then placed several of the cases on the table with a strange expression.

"Several cases from last year involve significant disputes and require further discussion."

They hadn't initially planned to hold a symposium.

But there's no way around it; studying laws still requires people from academia.

No one said anything.

After reviewing the case repeatedly, they all eventually discovered a problem.
"Seven cases, how come four of them involve the same person!?"

"And didn't this environmental pollution case just end? Who reported it?!"

Suddenly, someone spoke up in surprise.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked closely and finally discovered that all four cases shared the same name.

'Xu Liang!'

"Wait a minute, I know Judge Wang and Old Wu have a good relationship, but you can't use your position for personal gain!" someone suddenly joked.

Wang Yao's face immediately turned red, and he retorted.

"Personal gain my ass!"

"These were all reported by the local court, what does it have to do with me!?"

Yes.

Although Wang Yao felt that Xu Liang's approach to the lawsuit was awkward, he had to admit that the case was important and significant enough to warrant such a decision.

Wu Chengjun suddenly perked up, his face showing some surprise and doubt.

The student's case actually passed through multiple rounds of screening and made it into the Supreme People's Court's evaluation, reference, and guidance cases!?
Good guy.

Right now, there aren't many cases like this in the entire Eastern Kingdom!
In a trance.

Wu Chengjun suddenly paused.

These past few days, I've become quite famous in Shangcheng. School leaders have all met me, all thanks to the students who have helped me.

Then we can't show favoritism to one over the other!

If the other party can get the award.
Wu Chengjun paused suddenly. He didn't speak, but silently continued to tidy up with the people around him.

a long time.

"This case...this case really deserves to be evaluated?"

Suddenly someone pulled out Sun Quan's case.

This case, where three people were killed, resulted in a three-year suspended sentence; it could serve as a precedent!
Wu Chengjun said:

“In recent years, the authorities have launched special crackdowns on human traffickers. I think this is a good example and will serve as a deterrent.”

The man paused.

Soon after, someone else said:

"The case of the body falling from the building, I think..."

Wu Chengjun stated directly, "A civilized city is very important. The focus of the case should be on society as a whole, whether Wu Yong's human rights were equal!"

The man then said:

"How do you explain the Chen Dong case?"

“This case does have problems, but I think it can be included in the list of reference cases,” Wu Chengjun said.

The man was stunned for a moment, then instantly shocked.

"So you thought I was saying that negating the selection was instructive?"

"Otherwise what?" Wu Chengjun frowned. "Including the pollution case, these three cases are all top-tier cases. What reason do you have to prevent them from entering?"

The man's lips twitched.

"Why are you dragging this pollution case into this? Don't you find this case strange?"

"Some out-of-town resident was taking a walk in Sunzhou at midnight to digest their food when they happened to stumble upon someone stealing a corpse. And they also happened to find Jin Bo."

Wu Chengjun asked in confusion:

"Isn't this normal? Many cases are brought about by coincidences."

"No, isn't that too much of a coincidence?!" the man exclaimed in shock.

"Alright, alright!"

Wang Yao couldn't hold back any longer; his forehead was covered in black lines.

Without him.

According to the other party, the person wandering around in the case was his son.
The crowd argued for a long time.

finally.
The third batch of cases in the case library has been confirmed.

And the quantity of this batch
"Four guiding cases and 42 reference cases," Wang Yao and the other judges finalized.

The other academics didn't look at Wu Chengjun with very gentle eyes.

Wu Chengjun, however, was laughing, laughing heartily, his expression very warm.

Without him.

Four guiding cases.
Three of these incidents were committed by his student, Xu Liang!
What a good student! This is his disciple, his truly excellent student!
Seeing Wu Chengjun's smiling face, Wang Yao couldn't help but feel a throbbing pain in his forehead.

After a long silence, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Let's release all of these cases."
