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

Chapter 258 Exhausting All Benevolence and Righteousness! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]

"If you have nothing better to do, get lost. I was looking forward to watching the second trial after the first one was over."

Zhao Yi stood up and said, then yawned and was about to leave.

The hospital breakfast was decent, though a bit pricey, but not by much, otherwise Wang Chao, a notorious gourmand, wouldn't have been stuffing himself with food like that.

But Zhao Yi was already middle-aged, even elderly, and it was difficult for him to have an appetite early in the morning.

He picked up the food for his grandson and prepared to leave.

"Hey, it's been so long since we last saw each other, Old Zhao, don't you miss me?!"

Xu Liang tried to persuade him to stay:

"We're even from the same hometown!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yi staggered, turned around and glared at Xu Liang with a dark face, then left without looking back.

His pace even quickened slightly.

Fellow?

So you're a fellow villager who only scams his own people, huh?
To be honest, the second half of 2004 felt like hell to Zhao Yi!

As for the culprit, even if we don't say it was Xu Liang who caused it, just considering the pressure I was under, it was definitely that bastard who did it!
If he hadn't been transferred to the High Court and handled a couple of cases, he would have almost forgotten that there is a period for presenting evidence during court hearings.
"Tsk, Old Zhao doesn't remember old times."

Watching the other person's departing figure, Xu Liang's face showed a sigh.

"Uh-huh."

Wang Chao mumbled incoherently as he stuffed something into his mouth.

Seeing this, Xu Liang said nothing more, glanced at Wang Chao, and then quietly waited for him to eat.

After a long time.

Wang Chao only stopped what he was doing after the other person had finished three bowls of tofu pudding and eaten several steamed buns and fried dough sticks.

"Uh~"

He burped, then patted his stomach, smacked his lips, and said:

"Eat until you're seven-tenths full."

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang also stood up and said:
"Let's go."

After saying that, he bought some hot breakfast and then led Wang Chao into the hospital.

The second hearing is just around the corner.

The evidence to be submitted for the court hearing is basically all there; Xu Liang has nothing to add, so he's been observing the actions of Blue Shield Law Firm for the past two days.

Fortunately, even with so many elites at Blue Shield Law Firm, they didn't have time to unleash their abilities.

Therefore, the option of whether the other party will resort to underhanded tactics can be ruled out.

After all, it takes a long time to prepare for underhanded tactics.

Since Blue Shield posed no threat, he turned his attention to something else entirely.
"Let's call all the key members of the mutual aid association over."

As Xu Liang re-entered the ward, he looked at Feng Nan and spoke softly.

As he spoke, he distributed the breakfast he was holding to the people around him.

There were two or three patients in the room, as well as Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu.

Yang Ruoxi was still a little sleepy, nodding her head repeatedly, but her body was very honest. Attracted by breakfast, she sleepwalked over to Xu Liang and ate the steamed buns in small bites.

Xu Liang couldn't resist pinching her cheek; it felt very soft.

Half asleep and half awake, Yang Ruoxi frowned slightly. She felt the steamed bun biting her!
Su Yu, on the other hand, was dressed elegantly and ate her breakfast like a lady.

Xu Liang turned to look at the sickly-looking Feng Nan beside him.

"We don't need to call too many people over, just a few with some influence will do."

he added.

Upon hearing this, Feng Nan paused for a moment, then nodded.

She began to eat slowly, and before long, the small portion of food in front of her was gone.

After everyone had finished breakfast, Feng Nan began to take further action. She slowly got up, put on her shoes, and moved between the various wards.

Not long after.

Several patients he had met a few times before appeared in front of Xu Liang.

Wang Hu, Ye Jianguo, Qian Feng

Xu Liang scanned the group of people and read out their names one by one.

Each time their names were called, they would instinctively tense up, and only after Xu Liang stopped talking did they look at him with suspicion.

"If I'm not mistaken, during the recess from the 2nd until now, Blue Shield Law Firm should have sent people to contact a few of them privately."

Xu Liang smiled gently and looked at the people in front of him as he slowly spoke.

He sat in the chair, his tone indifferent, showing no anger or surprise whatsoever.

On the contrary, Wang Hu and the others immediately raised their eyebrows.

"Someone is still in contact!?"

Wang Hu looked as if he had been pricked by needles, his eyebrows stood on end, and his eyes revealed anger as he constantly scanned the people around him.

"Damn it, how come I didn't know about this?! Did you guys compromise?!"

"Damn it, what an ingrate! They've fed Li Ye's medicine to the dogs! They have no conscience at all!!!"

Those two sentences were like a spark falling into a powder keg.

The once quiet morning suddenly erupted into chaos in the ward.

The others, spurred on by this, immediately became anxious and said:

"Who did the plaintiff contact this time?! Damn it, they're so selfish!" "If it weren't for Li Ye and his two companions, we would have been transferred to a small hospital long ago, or even died from our illnesses. Now that the case is at a critical juncture, they're still taking advantage of our misfortune. They're really despicable!"

"Just call the police. I've been annoyed with some people in the mutual aid group for a long time. They're two-faced and treacherous, and they'll definitely turn against us in the end. It'll save us the trouble of getting them arrested."

"."

They were angry, but the problem was that they all acted angry.

Xu Liang simply watched their performance quietly, his eyes scanning back and forth among some of the people.

No joke, the temptation Chai Shirong offered was incredibly tempting for these people, and with Yang Hao's example right in front of them, Xu Liang wasn't surprised at all that some of them would agree to the conditions and give false testimony!
After all, this wasn't about being simply bought off; it was about one's own life, a choice between survival and death!

Either die a slow death with the members of the mutual aid society.

Alternatively, one could agree to Chai Shirong's request, after which the other party would secretly arrange for some medication to stabilize the patient's condition.
This is Chai Shirong, giving the mutual aid society a test of humanity!

Just as everyone was getting more and more excited, Xu Liang suddenly spoke up and interrupted them.

"Everyone, don't worry."

Xu Liang spoke, offering a soft reassurance.

“I know Yang Hao has angered everyone, and some people think that the defendant, that is, our side, will lose the case sooner or later.”

"After losing the case, the second instance will basically uphold the first instance, so no one will survive this year. It's better to find Chai Shirong, after all, the drugs in his hands are real."

"But what I want to say is that the truth may not be as you see it."

Xu Liang's face showed a gentle, faint smile, radiating friendliness.

"Perhaps... we've won the case?"

胜诉
After winning the case, Wu Fang and others will certainly be able to continue smuggling generic drugs, or rather, let others smuggle them!
At that time, everyone will have medicine and will be able to continue living!
No. In fact, social charities have already started raising funds and preparing to purchase a batch of medicines to provide assistance after this case was exposed!
Social donations alone were enough to improve their condition!

only.
Someone's lips moved for a moment, then they suddenly spoke:

"Attorney Xu, I'd like to ask, how long do you mean by 'winning the case'?"

The benefits offered by Chai Shirong were real and tangible.

One second they agree, the next they administer the medication!

Taking medicine even a second earlier increases your chances of survival!
On the contrary, the victory that Xu Liang mentioned seemed rather unrealistic and unrealistic.

If it takes two or three years to win the case, what's the point of winning?
By then, everyone in the mutual aid society had died!
Within a month!

Xu Liang spoke decisively.

Only one month!?
Someone paused, looking at Xu Liang with surprise and suspicion in their eyes.

It wasn't that they didn't trust each other, but rather that Xu Liang had been right in front of them all this time and hadn't investigated anything at all!
You think you can win a case in a month?
I won't say more.

Xu Liang didn't ramble on any longer, and he said with a smile:

"At the very least, during the second recess on the 17th, I will produce some evidence to turn the tide of the case!"

"Now that we've come to this point, you should all think it over carefully."

After speaking, Xu Liang waved his hand, asking everyone to make room for him.

Several patients hesitated, wanting to know what Xu Liang meant by those words.

Produce some evidence? What evidence?!

The case is quite clear: it involves smuggling generic drugs, which infringed on the interests of the Giant Star Pharmaceutical Group, leading to the case.

What evidence could possibly refute this?
It should be noted that even Wu Fang and Kong Jian admitted to committing smuggling!
The other party can't possibly fabricate evidence and distort the truth of the case, can they?
But in the end, no one dared to ask, and he left the ward with a heavy heart and a worried expression.

Soon, only a few people remained in the ward.

"There are quite a few people who have been bribed."

Xu Liang recalled the expressions of everyone just now, smiled, and didn't care at all.

To be honest, he didn't call them over to scare them.

It's not about moral blackmail either!
The law stipulates that emergency avoidance is permissible in crisis situations, and one may be found not guilty of violating the law.

There's no reason for me to expect a bunch of people who are about to die to maintain high moral standards; that would be asking the impossible!
After all, you have no right to demand that someone be of high moral character and a moral exemplar when their wife and children are on the verge of death, and then expect them to refuse to change their medication.
but.
He couldn't just stand by and watch his client become a witness for the plaintiff, and stand against him, the lawyer!
so.
"Having said all that, I have done my duty."

Whether they appear in court again during the second recess a few days later is none of my business.

Xu Liang murmured to himself.

Feng Nan didn't quite understand, but still expressed her respect.

Since she has chosen him, she naturally has to trust him!

"Phew, I'm full!"

Yang Ruoxi, who was standing to the side, suddenly perked up. She washed her face and looked radiant.

Xu Liang snapped out of his daze, looked at her, and smiled:
"Is it fully charged?"

Yang Ruoxi didn't care at all. She looked around and, noticing the awkward atmosphere, exclaimed in surprise:

"What happened?"

Although she had been inside the house the whole time, she had no idea what had just happened.

"nothing."

Xu Liang shook his head.

Although the other party always said that Wang Chao was stupid, the two were born to the same parents and their genes were not that different.

Therefore, Xu Liang was always very tolerant of the other party, and simply said:

"Go prepare for the trial."

"Court is in session!"
