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

Chapter 197 Who is that lawyer?! [Requesting monthly votes!]

"Who told you all this?!"

Xu Liang frowned. As things stand, what the other party was saying was simply absurd!
He simply couldn't understand who would have arranged the job if this were true.
A shelter center? More like a murder center!
But when Qi Tao uttered his next sentence...

Xu Liang's eye twitched.

"That's what the shelter said," Qi Tao said, then added after a moment's thought:

"That's what the court said too."

court
That's what the court said too!?
Now, Xu Liang's doubts were no longer just simple.

He was completely stunned, then turned his head and exchanged a glance with Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu. All three of them saw the shock in each other's eyes.

The court admitted it!?

Not
"Didn't the court raise any questions to the defendant?!" Xu Liang couldn't hold back any longer.

How exactly does the other party perceive this wording as effective?

We can't just say that's really the case.

Then this shelter can be disbanded immediately.

Xu Liang was able to sue Qi Yu for murder, even though the factory had arranged work for her!
"No."

Qi Tao shook his head, a bitter expression on his face.

It was precisely because he didn't have one that he reflected on himself and almost signed a letter of understanding.

"The court didn't raise any objections!?"

Su Yu couldn't hold back anymore; she now felt that Jiang Cheng was just playing with her.

"Not really."

Qi Tao shook his head.

"Where are the witnesses? Do you have any witnesses or anything?" Yang Ruoxi asked after thinking for a moment.

“There are witnesses, but no one saw the child go up to paint himself.” Qi Tao paused.

"They were the people in charge of painting at the kimchi factory. They can only confirm that the factory was indeed being painted, but they don't know exactly how many people were there or who they were."

He shook his head again and said.

Weird.

There are no concrete witnesses, and the logic is flawed, yet it still passes forensic examination.

Xu Liang frowned, crossed his arms, and his chest heaved more and more.

He now understood why no one in Jiangcheng had taken on this case.

Putting aside the question of whether winning a lawsuit against a shelter without any issues will lead to more people being stigmatized, let alone the fact that it did so, we should consider the consequences.

Just this Jiangcheng Court
It revealed something was amiss.

"Did you know the time of death?" Xu Liang finally calmed down and asked again.

"Yes, my son went to the shelter at 3 a.m. on March 2nd and didn't come back that night."

Qi Tao spoke up and quickly answered the other party.

"And he died at five o'clock that afternoon."

"The police contacted the shelter at 6 a.m. on March 3 and found the body at 9 a.m."

He died at 5 p.m. on the 2nd.

The body wasn't found until 9 a.m. on the 3rd!?

this.
"Didn't the kimchi factory immediately call the police after the person died?"

Xu Liang frowned and asked.

Qi Tao hesitated, unsure if it was even possible.

Seeing this, Xu Liang stopped asking questions and instead turned his attention to another point.

"Are there any photos of the scene of the death?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Tao shook his head.

"No."

"However, there is an autopsy report!"

He strode to the table, took the autopsy report left behind by Zhao Hailong, and handed it to Xu Liang.

Xu Liang took it, and the three of them gathered together to look at it.

The autopsy report clearly stated Qi Yu's autopsy details, and a black and white photograph of the body was also attached to it.

just
"There's a problem with the timing; the autopsy report was only done three days after the death."

Xu Liang looked left and right, then frowned.

If an autopsy is performed three days after death, it becomes very difficult to pinpoint the exact time of death.

The key is
"This photo isn't right."

"How could your face be so badly injured from a fall?!"

Xu Liang suddenly pointed at the photo and spoke.

But see.

The autopsy report showed that Qi Yu's face was a bloody mess, with no trace of her original facial features visible at all!

This fall, even if it was a face-first landing, shouldn't have been possible!
"I don't know," Qi Tao said hesitantly, shaking his head.

"How tall is the kimchi factory?" Xu Liang asked again.

"The factory shed should be about ten meters high."

Ten meters, which is roughly the height of three stories.

How could someone fall from the third floor and get injured like this?!

To be honest, a person might not even die from falling from that height!

Qi Yu, on the other hand, was smashed to pieces, her body twisted beyond recognition.

Ultimately, it was identified as
"Accidental fall to death!"

"This isn't right! Which organization issued the autopsy report?!"

Xu Liang spoke sternly, his brows furrowed into a knot.

For now.

Almost all the information provided by known authoritative institutions is flawed!

Qi Tao began to speak:

"The court. The court did it."

"Did the court hire another agency to do it?"

Court
The court accepted this autopsy report!?
Xu Liang's body trembled, and disbelief appeared on his face!

He simply couldn't fathom how the court had determined the report to be authentic and valid!

The injuries sustained from landing face-first already defy the laws of physics; how could that possibly pass the review?
This case
Big problem!

Xu Liang frowned, pondered for a long time, and finally spoke:

"Mr. Qi, I'll take your case!"

The problem is huge. He still lacks fame! Only when he's famous can he also provide food for the ten lawyers in his firm who are desperately seeking employment.

Only when you're plump and healthy can you harvest more chives!

"Really!?"

Qi Tao was visibly shaken, deeply moved.

"Really, but right now we need to determine the cause of death first."

Xu Liang frowned and nodded. Qi Yu's death was too strange.

This is clearly a murder case!
But here's the problem.
Who would murder a person with intellectual disabilities?!
"Our top priority right now is..."

Xu Liang paused, recalling the physics-defying scars on Qi Yu's face.

"Why."

"Qi Yu's face will be a bloody mess!"

at the same time.

Jiangcheng.

Jiangcheng Disabled Persons Shelter Center.

Zhao Hailong and Cheng Jia entered the shelter, both of them looking rather grim, their steps heavy.

"Squeak~!"

The two pushed the door open and entered.

Hearing the commotion, the person in charge at the front desk looked up and, upon seeing the two people, a hint of joy appeared on their face.

He quickly stepped forward and cautiously asked:

"How's the case going!?"

"Did that old man agree to sign it?!"

Hear the words.

Zhao Hailong looked at him with an uncertain expression for a long time.
"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, Zhang Yong felt a tremendous force on his face, slapping him to the side.

Zhao Hailong withdrew his hand, his face showing a solemn expression and his eyes extremely gloomy.

Looking at Zhang Yong lying on the ground, his face filled with shock and confusion, he spoke angrily:

"How dare you bring that up!"

"If you hadn't been so greedy for that one person's life, how could this batch of goods have had any problems?!"

"Do you even realize the enormity of the mess you've made?!"

"Let me tell you, if this gets out..."

"The boss won't let you get away with this!!!"

Zhao Hailong pointed at Zhang Yong's nose and angrily rebuked him.

He is very angry right now.

So much so that I want to devour Zhang Yong!
If the other party hadn't been greedy for a little bit of profit and dragged Qi Yu into it, how could they have been exposed!?
"me."

Zhang Yong covered his face and looked at his defense attorney, but he showed none of the demeanor one would expect from a client.

A sense of dread welled up inside him.

Although he didn't know what had happened, the other party's attitude clearly indicated that something was wrong with the case.
Is there a possibility that this case could go wrong?
No!

This case cannot afford to go wrong. If it does, even if he had a thousand heads, it wouldn't be enough to pay for it!
Human traffickers might receive a lighter sentence.

Then he's almost certainly facing the death penalty.

But before, when Zhao Hailong went out to negotiate, he brought back good news, and there were no problems with the court. Why is he suddenly so angry now?
"Attorney Chengcheng?"

Zhang Yong steeled himself and glanced at Cheng Jia beside him. She was also expressionless and showed no intention of pleading for him.

Zhang Yong was immediately startled.

He quickly pressed for an answer:

"Brother Zhao, what exactly happened?!"

What went wrong with the case?

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hailong felt another surge of anger, but he lost the will to fight and said in a deep voice:

"The case has taken a turn for the worse; Qi Tao has found a lawyer."

Have you found a lawyer?

Zhang Yong was a little puzzled.

"He's just a lawyer, right? You wouldn't happen to be someone like him, Brother Zhao, would you?"

He's just a lawyer, isn't he?

Hear this.

Zhao Hailong almost laughed in anger.

"Do you fucking know how difficult that lawyer is?!"

He slapped her again.

When Zhao Hailong saw Xu Liang, he felt that the other man looked familiar.

After sensing the other party's shameless attitude.

Zhao Hailong then remembered who the other person was.

Xu Liang
Xu Liang, a lawyer from Hanhai City!
The other party was not a so-called top lawyer, and even had very few cases on their resume.

But Zhao Hailong knew that if he was even slightly careless, he would be doomed!

Although he has been busy with Qi Tao's case these past few days, he has not been completely without any outside information.

The case that Sun Zhou committed that caused such a huge uproar was done by the other party!

Zhao Hailong knew Luo Jun and Liu Kun, and knew how cunning and ruthless they were, capable of scheming against people so thoroughly that they wouldn't even know how they died.

But these are the two people.
Without realizing it under any circumstances, Xu Liang inexplicably devoured him completely!

Luo Jun didn't even know the color of his underwear that the other party had checked before the trial. He thought he had made a perfect plan and that things were going according to his expectations!

That was done by the other party's lawyer.
"Damn it, I should have secretly arranged a lawyer for Qi Tao. How did we end up attracting this guy?"

Zhao Hailong murmured.

Although the boss had left them plenty of options in court and wasn't afraid, the lessons learned from the past made it impossible for him not to worry.

To know.

The opposing lawyer, with his keen eye for major cases, is very likely to uncover the truth about the kimchi factory and the shelter.

Should they really be sentenced to death based on their crimes?
The crimes committed by Luo Jun and Liu Kun combined, according to the law, are not even worth as much as the death penalty for Zhang Yong, a mere lackey!
Seeing that Zhao Hailong and Cheng Jia were both like this.

Zhang Yong also felt inexplicably panicked at this moment.

His heart pounded, he swallowed hard, stared intently at Zhao Hailong, his eyes filled with panic, and said:

"Attorney Zhao, that..."

"Who exactly is that lawyer!?"
