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

Chapter 232 A Strange Case! [Requesting Monthly Tickets!]

How profitable can a self-developed drug with a monopoly and copyright protection be?

Let's say that.

Imatinib is like a nuclear strike for some types of leukemia. From the time you start taking it until a month later, your condition will visibly improve!
But this thing is very expensive!

A bottle of 120 imatinib tablets costs 20,000 yuan during a period when the average monthly income is 1,000 yuan!

That's right, it would take an ordinary person two years of not eating or drinking to buy a bottle of this medicine!
And it only supports one month of use, and the price doesn't even include various taxes!

With import tariffs, value-added tax and other things included, 20,000 can even double to 40,000!

One bottle of medicine costs 40,000, which can only last for one month, while your monthly income is only 1,000.
Desperate?
"The price of generic drugs is very cheap, from 40,000 to 3,000 per bottle. Although it is still a bit expensive, if you take it sparingly, you can at least afford it."

Wang Feiyu spoke first.

"But because it's cheap, the interests it infringes on are also significant."

"Just smuggling a few hundred bottles has already resulted in profits exceeding ten million. In addition, people have died from taking the drugs, so the hospital has sued Kong Jian, Wu Fang, and Feng Nan's husband."

"Currently, this appears to be a criminal case with attached civil claims!"

In this case
That would be a huge problem!
First is the Blue Shield Law Firm. These people are deeply involved with the Giant Star Pharmaceutical Group and would do anything for them.

I also have a conflict with the other party
Furthermore, when generic drugs involve foreign companies, judges tend to favor them. After all, although the drugs are expensive, at least there is a supply available. However, if the case is poorly judged, the foreign company may cut off the supply chain, leaving everyone without access to the drugs!
If you were in these two situations, how would you decide?
"wrong."

Xu Liang suddenly seemed to realize something, looked up at Wang Feiyu, and frowned, saying:
"Did the medicine kill someone?"

Wang Feiyu nodded. "Yes, Feng Nan's son, Li Guang, is eight years old this year and also suffers from this kind of illness. According to the judicial appraisal agency of the Bureau of Justice, the other party's body showed symptoms such as convulsions caused by drugs."

"At the same time, the body was found to have ingested generic imatinib before death."

"The hospital then filed a lawsuit against them!"

Generic drugs. They can kill people!?

"Is there something wrong with the medicine?" Xu Liang frowned, then dismissed his own answer.

"No, only two people died, and they were a father and son."

If the medicine could kill people, then Feng Nan and the others wouldn't have entrusted him with investigating the case.

But if the medicine doesn't kill people
How did that child die?!
"Does the drug have some side effects?" Xu Liang asked again, still suspicious.

Wang Feiyu shook his head. "There shouldn't be any. If there were side effects, these patients would know better than anyone else."

Feng Nan and others would have physical examinations from time to time.

Even if the side effects are only a tiny bit, they will become apparent over time. The fact that none have been detected so far likely means there are no side effects, or that the side effects are definitely not fatal!

This raises a question.

If the side effects are not fatal, then
"Did Li Guang die from drugs?"

Xu Liang frowned, crossed his arms, and felt that something was illogical about this.

Or is there another cause of death?
"That's right, at least for now, that's how Li Guang died."

Wang Feiyu nodded. Li Guang's father, Li Ye, who was also Feng Nan's deceased husband, was one of the three defendants. He died of leukemia. At least that's the case for now.

"Do you have any information from foreign pharmaceutical companies?"

Xu Liang suddenly asked again.

"I don't know." Wang Feiyu shook his head.

It's already quite good that he was able to find this much information; as for things abroad, he really doesn't know anything.

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang had a vague idea in his mind. He immediately stopped asking questions and looked at Wang Feiyu, handing him a document directly.

"You'll be in charge of Qi Tao's case."

"If I'm not mistaken, those bastards from Blue Shield Law Firm will take on Zhao Hailong's defense case!"

Xu Liang's eyes revealed a feeling of disgust.

that's the truth.

Although the other party is not posing a real threat to him now, they have certainly disgusted him!
It was no surprise to Xu Liang that someone like him would take on Zhao Hailong's defense case just to gain fame.

Wang Feiyu
"How can this be allowed?!"

Wang Feiyu looked at the template contract in his hand, which was distributed in the name of the law firm, and his whole body trembled.

He understood what this contract meant.

It signifies the future, it signifies a bright future!
This also means that he will become the first top-performing lawyer in the firm, apart from the boss, Xu Liang!
The title of "Top Lawyer" in Arashiyama Province is not self-proclaimed; it is awarded through an official review process!
After taking on this case, he may not be able to reach the level of a provincial-level first-class lawyer due to his age, but he will definitely meet the local judicial requirements for a top-notch lawyer!

And that's how he got it?

Wang Feiyu recalled the trouble that the assassination attempt had caused his law firm a month ago, and felt ashamed. Even the engagement contract felt like a hot potato.

"How about we let Secretary Yang take charge?"

"Whether it's experience, ability, or qualifications, it's not my place to be in charge."

Wang Feiyu declined.

"Stop talking nonsense. You're being forced to take responsibility!"

Xu Liang was too lazy to say anything more and simply handed the contract to the other party.

"Yang Ruoxi naturally has her own responsibilities, so you don't need to worry."

Upon hearing this, Wang Feiyu hesitated.

Yang Ruoxi, standing behind them, kindly offered an explanation:

"You can continue now. Don't worry, no one will have any objections."

“I made an appearance during the first trial of this case, so I have some reputation.”

During the first trial, Zhang Tao naturally couldn't have only reported on Xu Liang.

Yang Ruoxi, who had been following closely behind, was also reported on, and her current fame is significantly different from what it used to be!
Upon hearing this, Wang Feiyu's lips moved for a long time before his eyes finally hardened.

"Okay, then I'll take charge of this case!"

"Yes, if anyone at Blue Shield Agency tries anything underhanded, just contact me, or call Mr. Shangcheng."

Xu Liang nodded and gave a word of advice.

“Drive to Jiangcheng and introduce yourself to Qi Tao. He will know what you are.”

This time, Wang Feiyu didn't hold back. After being tricked by Zhao Hailong once, he put aside his pride in not seeking outside help and would often ask his teacher for help when he encountered something he didn't understand.

Finished.

Wang Feiyu nodded, walked to a car parked in the parking lot, and then drove the car around.

In the blink of an eye, the car drove out of Tianshan Hospital and headed towards Jiangcheng Second District, disappearing from sight in no time.

Xu Liang withdrew his gaze and immediately looked at the main entrance of the hospital.

Feeling the gazes, the dozen or so people subconsciously took a step back and then lowered their heads.

Xu Liang paused, trying his best to exude kindness, and his eyes became even gentler.

After adjusting, he then stepped forward.

"Da da."

Step onto the stairs.

Before long, the two met and stood together, less than two meters apart.

"Attorney Xu?"

A woman timidly and tentatively uttered a name.

Xu Liang nodded. "It's me, Xu Liang from Liangxin Law Firm. The lawyer you were talking to just now is my subordinate, Wang Feiyu."

Upon hearing this, the people in front of them did not make any move, but their expressions became visibly excited, and their hands clenched tightly.

Although half of her face was covered by a mask, it was still very noticeable.

"That's wonderful!"

In his excitement, someone spoke up.

Xu Liang quickly interrupted the other person's emotions and said:

"Which one of you is Ms. Feng Nan?" This case involves Blue Shield and a foreign company. It's not his home turf, and the judge's discretionary sentencing power is quite delicate. He doesn't have time for much small talk with the other party!
"I, I am Feng Nan!"

The first woman to speak, a gaunt woman with sunken eyes, exclaimed excitedly.

Seeing this, Xu Liang fixed his gaze on the other party.

Feng Nan's appearance is, to put it mildly, terrible!
The whole person was like a skeleton wrapped in skin, like a withered skeleton about to die.

Xu Liang's eyes flashed, and he said, "Gentlemen, I will do my best to accept your requests."

"But now, I would like to speak with Ms. Feng first, and I would appreciate your assistance."

Upon hearing this, those around him, though not dissatisfied, hesitated to speak.

Until Feng Nan spoke.

"You guys go first. Too many people will definitely affect the case, and nobody wants to miss out on their medication. I'll stay a bit longer and contact you tonight."

He then gave a reasoned and well-founded explanation.

The others, though still hesitant to speak, left.

Before long, only Xu Liang, Feng Nan, and three others remained at the scene.

"These two are my secretary and assistant, one is Yang Ruoxi and the other is Su Yu. You can address them by their surname plus 'lawyer'."

Xu Liang then gestured to Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu, who were standing to the side.

Feng Nan nodded, indicating that she understood.

Seeing this, Xu Liang hesitated for a moment, looked her up and down, and asked:

"Ms. Feng, I'd like to inquire about your health. Are you also..."

The other person doesn't look like someone who has lost weight due to overwork.
Feng Nan's eyes dimmed, but she forced a smile and said:

"Yes, I'm sick too, the same leukemia."

"My husband, son, and I were diagnosed with the virus in about six months."

After speaking, Xu Liang didn't know what to say. Leukemia is such an expensive disease that it would be difficult enough for other families to have just one case, let alone this family of three.
Yang Ruoxi suddenly spoke:

"What about Mr. Li Ye?"

The three individuals were diagnosed with the disease within six months of each other.

But how come Li Ye died of illness while Feng Nan was completely unharmed?

"he"

As she spoke, Feng Nan's lips moved for a long time, remaining silent for a long while before finally saying:

"After the diagnosis, my husband gave up treatment and left the money to me and our son."

"My son's condition worsened, so I had to stop treatment. I'm still alive because I took medication before, which is why I've been able to hold on until now."

But
Xu Liang frowned, looked around, and then said in a low voice:
"Mr. Li smuggled imatinib, but he didn't take it himself!?"

Smuggled imatinib may not be something you can afford to take casually, but it's definitely something you can take from time to time to stabilize your condition!

Li Ye was diagnosed with the disease only a few years ago, how could he have died so quickly?
"There's something to eat."

Feng Nan said, "It's a very cheap medicine, and he has some!"

He died despite taking medication!?

Xu Liang was stunned.

This surprised not only him, but also Su Yu and Yang Ruoxi.

Su Yu couldn't help but ask:
"I'd like to ask about your husband."

"Do you remember the time frame surrounding your death, and the events that occurred before and after it?"

Feng Nan's lips moved, and these memories churned in his heart like razor blades.

But when she thought of the people who were still alive, she fell silent.

After a long silence, she finally spoke:

“I remember that day, he and I were both at the hospital taking care of our son.”

"Around 2 p.m., he suddenly fainted and collapsed to the ground."

"After being taken to the emergency room, he was pronounced dead at three o'clock."

“I saw my husband’s body lying on the morgue at five o’clock.”

Death at three o'clock, death at five o'clock.
Ok?
Four o'clock?

"Wait, you mean he was pronounced dead at 3 o'clock, but you didn't see Li Ye's body until two hours later?"

Yang Ruoxi couldn't hold back any longer and suddenly asked.

Feng Nan thought for a moment, then nodded.

"I remember it very clearly."

"Were you standing guard outside the operating room at the time?"

“Yes, I was at the door around 5:30 when I saw the body,” Feng Nan said.

Hear the words.

Xu Liang and the other two exchanged glances, looking at each other blankly.

According to common sense.

From the moment the death is pronounced to the moment the body is carried out of the operating room, it takes about half an hour, and sometimes up to an hour.

Only when family members throw a tantrum will the situation last longer!

After all, the operating room is in short supply, and there are other patients waiting to use it; it can't be wasted on a corpse.

But Li Ye's body stayed in the operating room for several more hours!?
What's going on?
What the hell is this case?

"Something's weird," Su Yu murmured.

First, people died from taking generic drugs, but only the father and son died; the side effects of the other people were not even detected.

Then there's Li Ye's death, and the time his body was taken out of the operating room.
Without exception, all of this information exudes an eerie atmosphere from beginning to end!
but.
Where is Li Guang?

Xu Liang gathered all his thoughts and stored them in his mind.

He looked around, then looked back at Feng Nan and asked again.

"May I see your child's body?"

If he remembered correctly, Wang Feiyu said on the phone that Feng Nan was afraid the law firm wouldn't believe her, so she took the child's body to Hanhai City.

Where is the body?!
Upon hearing this, Feng Nan quickly spoke up:
"In the morgue."

"I took the body out under the pretext of preparing an autopsy report."

The strictness of morgue management varies from hospital to hospital.

As Tianshan Hospital is a private hospital, the regulations will not be strictly enforced at that time.

However, morgues are places that ordinary people don't go into, not even thieves.

"Can we still go in now?"

Xu Liang suddenly asked.

Feng Nan paused, thought for a moment, and nodded.

"Yes, you just need to apply."

The morgue is a medical auxiliary facility, and generally, only medical staff are allowed to enter.

But you can apply, since the body belongs to a family, and at the very least, there should be a farewell.

Hospitals generally won't make things too difficult for you.

"Go check the body!"

P.S.: Chapter 3 will be a few minutes late; I'm checking the data and verifying the information.
