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

Chapter 205 Coercion! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]

It's hard to have a conscience when you're a lawyer.

However, Xu Liang wrote the character "良" (liang) in his name, meaning conscience, on his household registration book, so in a sense, he is not lacking in conscience!
If he could get a satisfactory answer by having a little conscience, he might be willing to give it a try.

However, this case
Zheng Shijie's family members are quite understanding.

Xu Liang saw no need to arrange debts for the other party, because
Zhao Yue's wife and daughter are indeed in debt!
3 month 20 day.

"Why are you rushing me? It's just three thousand yuan. You're making it sound like I can't pay it back. When did I ever not give you money the previous two times?!"

Dongguo Qingshi City.

A woman in her twenties answered the phone, her face showing impatience.

A harsh, masculine voice came from the phone's speaker.

"Three thousand? That was your initial loan!"

"It's already gone up to nine thousand!!!"

"If you don't pay me back today, I'm coming to your door!"

"."

Upon hearing these words, Zheng Yu's face, which was covered in makeup, immediately drooped, looking quite unpleasant.

She is about 1.6 meters tall and weighs 130 kilograms, so she looks a bit overweight.

But his clothes were very eye-catching!
Without exception, they were all designer brands, and their entire outfits added up to more than most people earn in a year!
"I'll pay it back today. It's just nine thousand yuan. Don't talk like you don't have any."

Zheng Yu replied impatiently.

"Nine thousand? Who said you could pay it all back? You can only pay back six thousand at most! If you can't pay it back... hehe, then see you tonight!"

A threatening voice came from the other end of the phone.

Zheng Yu didn't take it to heart, "How annoying!"

After saying that, she hung up the phone immediately.

Then, Zheng Yu looked at the bustling city in front of him and the lively commercial street, and suddenly felt utterly bored.

This is Tsongseok City, the capital of Arashiyama Province.

Its development is among the best in the country. If you ignore the internet, its prosperous appearance is almost the same as some of the more developed cities in Xu Liang's previous life!

Zheng Yu attended university here, and after graduation, he did not go home, but lived a life of extravagance and debauchery in Qingshi City.

Her family is very wealthy.

In Zheng Yu's memory, her family was quite ordinary when she was a child, until...
When she was 13, her family suddenly became rich!
Large sums of money mysteriously appeared in the house, so the mother stopped working and started spending money recklessly. In short, it was as if there was a money printing machine in the house, constantly printing money.

Zheng Yu didn't know how she earned it; she guessed it must be illegal income.

But it doesn't matter where it came from, as long as I can spend it!
As for debts...
"That biology dad is really something, why would he drink and drive if he had nothing better to do?"

"He drank, but he didn't explain how he got the money before he went in!"

Zheng Yu said this with dissatisfaction in his heart.

Then, looking at the commercial street in front of her, she lost all desire to buy anything and walked directly towards the bank.

The debt was incurred five years ago.

At the time, she was still in school, partying every night at university and living the extravagant lifestyle of a rich second-generation.

But suddenly, Zheng Shijie went inside!

That's right, Zheng Shijie was arrested for drunk driving and sentenced to a full 15 years!
The family's situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. After realizing that there was no new money, the mother, Zhao Yue, decisively began to cut back on food and clothing.

but.
As the saying goes, it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance

Having grown accustomed to a good life, how could Zheng Yu possibly endure such poverty again?
Furthermore, she knew her family was wealthy, so she squandered her living expenses without any restraint.

After the money ran out, Zheng Yu asked Zhao Yue for more, but Zhao Yue only offered a small amount. Zheng Yu couldn't accept this, as saving face was the most important thing. Besides, Zhao Hailong and others would also give her money later, so...
She temporarily borrowed money from a then-new type of online loan, namely P2P lending, but it was some shady P2P lending platforms, which are illegal.

"Nine withdrawals and thirteen returns, preventing the full return of the principal, allowing interest to compound."

Zheng Yu went to the bank's ATM, took out her bank card, and muttered to herself as she operated it.

What she said were all part of the rules of online lending!
Faced with such a lucrative target as Zheng Yu, how could the online lending company possibly let her go?

The principal of three thousand yuan was far from enough to repay; the other party has been accruing interest! Over the years, the interest has long exceeded ten thousand yuan, more than ten times the principal!
"Never mind, it's only a few thousand yuan anyway."

Zheng Yu comforted herself, then took out her card and entered the withdrawal amount on the ATM.

Unfortunately.
The next second, instead of the expected sound of money being counted, the ATM displayed a line of text.

[Transaction failed!]

Zheng Yu was taken aback, and she operated the machine again.

unfortunately
[Transaction failed!]

[Transaction failed!]

【.】

After failing to withdraw money several times in a row, Zheng Yu looked at the ATM in front of him suspiciously, and then walked to the brand-new machine next to him.

"Why is no one coming to fix the broken machine?"

She muttered something, then repeated the process on the new machine, but unfortunately...
[Status Abnormal!]

Zheng Yu was stunned when she saw the display on the screen.

Two machines in a row could not remove it.
Zheng Yu panicked a little. She started switching banks and using the machines on various machines.

But it's a pity.
I can't get a single penny!

"What...what's going on!?"

Zheng Yu was anxious and kept repeating the action of taking out money.

"How could you not have the money?!"

The thought of that nine thousand yuan made her even more anxious.

With interest compounding, nine thousand yuan would be a considerable burden for her!
But it's a pity.
Regardless, the money in the card still couldn't be withdrawn.

"Go to the teller? No, no, what if they find out about my transfers?"

"Could it be that Zhao Yue didn't transfer the money to me?"

Zheng Yu was filled with anxiety and ultimately suspected that the problem stemmed from a lack of money in her bank account.

She hesitated for a long time.

However, he still didn't dare to call Zhao Yue to ask, and instead made another call.

[Contact Person: Zhao Hailong!]

Looking at the phone number, Zheng Yu didn't hesitate and immediately dialed it.

"Dudududu~"

The sounds during the waiting period were like death knells, each ring making breathing a little heavier.

Yoshihisa
The call was dialed.

"Hello? What's wrong, Xiaoyu?" Zhao Hailong's voice came through the speaker.

Zheng Yu didn't speak, but simply said matter-of-factly:
"Uncle Zhao, I'm in dire need of money. Could you transfer some to me?"

Zhao Hailong was silent for a moment, then replied, "How much?"

"Twenty thousand," Zheng Yu said.

"Twenty thousand?"

Zhao Hailong paused for a moment, then agreed.

"Just a moment."

"beep!"

The call was hung up.

Zheng Yu waited happily for the transfer record.

With 20,000 yuan, she had already decided what to do with the remaining 10,000 yuan.

"Let's go to a bar first, then go to a karaoke bar."

She thought so.

A short while later, the phone rang again, and she dialed it instinctively.

The moment the call connected, a voice rang out.

"Xiaoyu, what's the situation on your end?"

Zhao Hailong's urgent voice came through.

"What?!" Zheng Yu was taken aback, instinctively sensing something was wrong. "What...what's going on?"

"The money can't be transferred!"

"The money can't be transferred!"

Jiangcheng.

The bank across the street from the Jianghe Disabled Persons' Shelter.

At the ATM, Zhao Hailong was on the phone while frowning.

He looked at the "Account Abnormal" message displayed in front of him, his brows furrowed deeply.

He tried again, but unfortunately, he still couldn't turn it!
"No, it won't turn!"

Zhao Hailong immediately understood what was wrong with the other party's account.

Zheng Yu was a little anxious.

She has to repay the loan in the next couple of days. If she doesn't, Zhao Yue will find out, and the interest will snowball to an alarming level!
Zhao Hailong currently says he cannot pay.
"Uncle Zhao, is it really not going to work?!" Zheng Yu gripped her phone tightly, her voice trembling with panic.

"Should we reduce the number of turns!?"

"Fifteen thousand, no, nine thousand, nine thousand will do!"

A strange look appeared in Zhao Hailong's eyes.

Nine thousand? That's a very precise number.

"What did you do?!" Zhao Hailong realized something and hurriedly asked.

Why does it have to be nine thousand?

Zheng Yu was speechless and stammered, "I...I..."

Zhao Hailong's eyes narrowed, and his tone became more forceful, leaving no room for argument:

"If something happens, just tell me, and I'll cover for you. If you don't tell me, I won't even know how to handle it!"

Hear the words.

Zheng Yu gritted her teeth and said in a trembling voice:

"Uncle, I...I borrowed some money from loan sharks."

"I have to pay back the money today, or else..."

As she spoke, Zheng Yu burst into tears, choking back sobs as she said:
"If I can't pay them back, they'll talk to me and tell me I should sell myself!"

Go sell it?

What's the difference between your private life and prostitution?
Zhao Hailong really wanted to curse, but he held back. He seemed to have figured something out now.

Calmly said:
"It's probably because the bank found out about the loan sharks and they had your transfer records, so the bank froze the account in both directions."

A two-way freeze means that money from outside can't get in, and money from inside can't get out.
"What should I do, Uncle Zhao? They said they're coming to find me tonight. I only have six hundred yuan in cash on me right now," Zheng Yu cried.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Hailong offered a solution.

"so."

“I’ll transfer 20,000 yuan to your mom so she can take the card and go find you.”

"You'll have to pay back the principal when the time comes, and then you'll never have to borrow again in your life."

Zheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief, but then became worried again, "But my mom found out I borrowed money from loan sharks."

"I can't leave right now, so only your mother can contact you!"

Zhao Hailong's tone was unquestionable.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Yu stopped insisting.

"Okay, okay," Zheng Yu said, crying.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hailong didn't say anything more and hung up the phone directly.

And behind him.

At this moment, Cheng Jia and Zhang Yong, who hadn't seen him return for a long time, approached him and looked at his puzzled expression, asking:
"what happened?"

Cheng Jia looked suspicious.

"Zheng Yu's card has been frozen."

“I transferred 20,000 yuan to Zhao Yue and told her to use the money to get things done.”

Zhao Hailong gave a casual explanation, then swiped his card and made a phone call at the same time.

[Contact Person: Zhao Yue!]

"dududu~"

The phone rang for a few seconds before being answered.

"Hello? Brother Zhao?" A middle-aged woman's voice rang out.

"Xiaoyu owes some money, and her card has been frozen. I'll transfer some money to you now, and you can take the card to Qingshi City to pay it off for her."

Zhao Hailong stated his purpose directly.

Zhao Yue on the other end of the phone was taken aback.

He immediately became angry, his voice revealing a hint of rage.

"Owes money!?"

"Isn't all the money in the house enough for her to spend?! I give her ten thousand a month!"

"How come she's still in debt?! No way, I have to."

Zhao Hailong was just about to stop him and tell him to go and do his business first.

But unexpectedly...
When he clicked to transfer the money, a familiar prompt appeared.

[The other party's account is suspicious!]

Zhao Hailong was stunned.

This is frozen!?
"Your card got frozen!? What have you been doing these past two days?"

Zhao Hailong asked anxiously.

"What freeze? I didn't do anything. I only transfer money to Xiaoyu every month at the bank." Zhao Yue was also stunned.

That.
Then why is it frozen?!

Zhao Hailong sensed something was wrong and quickly asked for the other party's other bank card information.

Then they tried transferring money to Zhao Yue's other cards, but...
All accounts are showing as abnormal!
"Everything's frozen!?"

"A freeze without any warning?"

Zhao Hailong couldn't help but show a hint of surprise, his eyes filled with astonishment.

"All frozen?"

Zhao Yue panicked. She didn't have much cash on her, and if her card was frozen, she estimated she wouldn't be able to eat for two days!
"I...I didn't do anything!" she said anxiously.

It's frozen even though nothing was done.

Zhao Hailong paused, then suddenly realized something and subconsciously turned to look at Cheng Jia.

The other party was also taken aback and said:

"This is."

"Judicial freeze!?"

Normally, freezing one card will not affect other people.

Only the judicial authorities could freeze such a large area!
And related to Zhao Yue and Zheng Yu.
"Zheng Shijie!!!"

Zhao Hailong uttered three words.

In an instant, his entire face looked ugly.

The only person who could implicate both of them is Zheng Shijie!
That is
"What's wrong with him?!" Cheng Jia asked anxiously.

Zheng Shijie knew quite a lot of things. He thought that the fifteen-year sentence was the end of it all, but who would have thought that Zhao Yue and Zheng Yu would be implicated now?

The freezing of the other party's funds indicates that the judicial authorities believe the money is illicit and that the source of the money is unknown.
You can't check!

"Sister Zhao, have you visited Zheng Shijie recently?"

Zhao Hailong asked hurriedly, his breathing gradually becoming heavier.

Five years have passed, and the police have inexplicably frozen my assets.
It's very likely that Zheng Shijie said something!
Will I get implicated?

"I...I don't know!"

“I saw him last week. He looked okay, just a bit thinner,” Zhao Yue said, sounding flustered.

Her card was frozen.

This means you only have a little money to spend.

But Zheng Yu couldn't wait!
Those debt collectors will really come to your door to collect the debt; that will happen to Zheng Yu.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yue became increasingly anxious.

"How to do?"

"Should I go see him?"

Zhao Hailong pondered for a long time, then nodded, "Go to the detention center and see him. Make sure you get all the details!"

Zhao Yue readily agreed, "Okay, okay, I'll go as soon as I can go to work and start working at the detention center!"

If Zheng Shijie gets into trouble.
None of them can escape!
Thinking of this, Zhao Hailong felt uneasy.

They thought that without Xu Liang, the case would be solved without anyone knowing.

But why are there police matters involved right now?
"Could it be Xu Liang? He hasn't left yet?" Zhang Yong suddenly asked from the side.

Do you know what it means for a law firm to suspend operations for rectification?

Seeing that the 'culprit' still dared to speak, Zhao Hailong immediately retorted angrily.

If it weren't for the other party, Zheng Shijie wouldn't have been caught!

Zhang Yong fell silent, shrank back timidly.

Cheng Jia stepped forward and gently comforted him:
"Don't worry, it should be fine."

Zhao Hailong paused, then finally took a deep breath.

"hope so."

Zheng Shijie, you'd better bite your lip!
