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

Chapter 305 Clues! Major Suspicion! [Requesting Monthly Tickets!]

What does Shangcheng have to do with me?
He's never been to Upper Town!
just
Liu Jinshui, corpse, case filed.
Zhu Haoyi paused, then his face showed surprise, as if he had understood something, and he quickly said:
"Liu Jinshui went to Shangcheng to file a case!?"

The person on the other end of the phone didn't refute it, which was taken as an admission.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Haoyi froze, his brows furrowing.

He knew that Xu Liang and Liu Jinshui had left; otherwise, with Xu Liang around, they wouldn't have dared to forcibly demolish the property.

He never expected that the other party would go to Shangcheng instead of the provincial capital!

"Liu Jinshui risked his life!"

"The Supreme Court just finished a press conference, and dozens of well-known reporters were still broadcasting live, while he was holding his head up in the crowd, filing a case."

Do you know how serious this situation is?!

The voice on the other end of the phone was very stiff, and the person sounded like they were breathing very unevenly.

Zhu Haoyi was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed horror after he realized what was happening.

He was practically begging for justice in front of dozens of reporters at the Supreme Court, risking his life!

He only had to think about it for a moment before he felt a chill run down his spine. He then understood why the other party had taken the risk to contact him and even launched into a tirade of abuse.

"Damn it, this madman is like a leech, sticking to me like glue!"

Zhu Haoyi knew immediately that Xu Liang was behind it, and he cursed inwardly, clearly on the verge of a mental breakdown.

'This is tantamount to slapping the Supreme Court in the face. Isn't he afraid of being sanctioned?!'

"What a madman! A lawyer doing this!"

The people do not fight with the officials.

Although lawyers are part of the judicial system, even the most prominent lawyers are still members of the public.

Regarding this matter, let alone the Supreme Court, it shouldn't be transferred to a higher court.

Even the Intermediate People's Court!

In the entire Eastern country, is there any other lawyer who would dare to do this? The moment they do it, and the case is investigated, the entire industry will blacklist them!

The news of your license being revoked will hit you in the face in the next second!

But Xu Liang not only did it, he did it a second time, and he even chose the Supreme Court as the venue!

Calling someone a madman is an insult to madmen; even a madman wouldn't do something like that.
"I already know the details of the case through connections."

"Can't you just spend a little more money? Zhu Haoyi, is your brain filled with shit?!"

The person on the other end of the phone lowered their voice and said angrily.

I, Zhu Haoyi, also felt extremely frustrated.

Mining companies make money.

But his mother didn't have any money. The chaos in Zhengyang City was certainly helpful to him, but he needed to spend money to bribe officials everywhere. Just last time, those red bean mooncakes alone cost double.
However, he also knew that now was not the time to complain.

"How's the case going now?"

Zhu Haoyi asked in a low voice.

There is theoretically little difference between filing a case in the Upper Town and filing a case in the High Court.

Ultimately, the case will have to be handed over to the place where the crime was committed, namely Zhengyang City, no matter what.

As long as the case is heard here, Zhu Haoyi can minimize its impact!
But
"The Shangcheng Intermediate People's Court is in charge."

"No official notification has been issued yet, so please be careful."

The other person took a deep breath and said impatiently.

The person in charge of the trial, Zhu Haoyi, instantly turned ashen-faced and looked extremely ugly.

"okay, I get it."

Zhu Haoyi took a deep breath, suppressing all his impatience.

"How's the rare earth issue progressing?" The tone on the other end of the phone softened slightly, and after a moment's thought, the person asked.

"Six months, at most six months, and I'll be able to make contact with people," Zhu Haoyi said.

Half a year?
"it is good."

Upon learning the progress, the other party stopped talking and hung up the phone.

Immediately, Zhu Haoyi deleted all the call logs, leaving no relevant information, before putting the phone in his pocket.

"What happened?"

Li Yang, who had been standing beside him, asked in a low voice.

"It's a call from the city; something's gone wrong with our plans."

"That lawyer took his men to Shangcheng, and filed a case at the Supreme Court with his head in his hands, in front of dozens of reporters."

Zhu Haoyi spoke with a headache.

Li Yang instantly understood the cause and effect.

The case was filed and heard in Shangcheng District, and the defendants were required to be present.
What about Zhengyang City?
"The forced demolition continues, but the rare earth issue cannot be delayed. Every day the project is delayed is a risk, and it must be implemented as soon as possible."

"we."

Li Yang had a thought process in his mind.

As things stand, even the Shangcheng Intermediate People's Court is unable to conduct a trial for this case in a short period of time!

why?
Because there's a contract!
The contract had Zhang Shan's clear signature and fingerprints, and they were notified that there were also transfer records.

Furthermore, after Zhang Shan's death, the only suspicious point was the stool, which only proves the possibility that a second person was present at the time of death, but cannot prove it!
If it is not verified, it cannot be considered evidence.

Furthermore, Zhang Shan's wife was also disposed of without their knowledge. It could be argued that the other party's wife absconded with the money, leading to Zhang Shan's suicide.

Although the clues cannot be confirmed.

However, Xu Liang had no evidence to prove that they killed Zhang Shan!
"With the two sides pulling in different directions, the case could drag on for several years."

"And then..."

Perhaps they have already made a clean getaway.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Haoyi breathed a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had left a trick up his sleeve on the other party's wife, otherwise he might have really been in trouble now!

Thinking of this.

Zhu Haoyi's face grew increasingly grim, and a hint of gloom appeared in his eyes.

He really didn't understand why Xu Liang was sticking to him like a leech.

There are so many illegal businesses in Zhengyang City, why are they singled out and targeting me?
"Get ready, we're going to the city to file a lawsuit," Li Yang said.

Zhu Haoyi nodded, the contact person on the other end of the phone just now appearing in his mind.

But then I thought, it probably wouldn't affect the other party.

Zhu Haoyi finally nodded.

"it is good."

at the same time.

"Hey, you really are at the Supreme Court!"

"But I reckon you won't be my secretary this time, so you'll just be a tourist."

Uptown.

The Supreme People's Court, Liu Jinshui's residential reception room.

Xu Liang looked at Yang Ruoxi and Wang Chao at the door and a slight smile appeared on his face.

Wang Yao tricked Yang Ruoxi into coming to the Supreme Court by saying she wanted to see him. He thought it was just a made-up story, but to his surprise, Yang Ruoxi was actually there.
"Hmph, I'm very responsible!"

Yang Ruoxi raised her head. She had been paying close attention to Liu Jinshui's condition and hadn't slept much.

Xu Liang glanced at Wang Chao beside him and hesitated.

"Chaozi, what are you doing?"

Then they saw Wang Chao lying on a public chair.

Upon hearing the sound, he looked up and forced a smile at Xu Liang, but as soon as he smiled, a sharp pain shot through his buttocks, instantly contorting his face.

He gasped, hissing, which left Xu Liang stunned.

"What's going on?" he whispered to Yang Ruoxi.

"My dad beat me," Yang Ruoxi said.

Wang Yao was furious yesterday.

It was Wang Chao who led Liu Jinshui into the Supreme Court!
So when Wang Yao got home, he grabbed a feather duster and started hitting the other person hard.

Fortunately, Wang Chao is tough and has no injuries other than a sore buttock, so going to the police station to receive the award later will not affect him.

"By the way, how's the case going?"

Yang Ruoxi glanced at Liu Jinshui, who was packing his luggage in the reception room, and then looked at Xu Liang.

She asked in a low voice, "Has a case been filed?"

Xu Liang nodded. "It's highly likely that a case has been filed and the city government should take charge."

To be honest, the words of ordinary lawyers are not very valuable, and Wang Yao and others couldn't be bothered to listen to them at all.

But Xu Liang is different.

He's good at creating hilarious things, and he's good at really outrageous things!

Zhao Yidu wished Xu Liang would say more during the evidence presentation period, as he would definitely take it into consideration. His only fear was that Xu Liang would remain silent until the crucial moment.

Wang Yao and the others had learned from this experience, so since Xu Liang was willing to share his thoughts, they were still quite valuable for reference.

"Uptown in charge. Phew, that's good, that's good."

Yang Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief; they knew quite a few people in Shangcheng!

just
"Evidence is still lacking."

Xu Liang frowned, sat down next to Yang Ruoxi, and pointed out the biggest problem at hand.

The case has been filed.

However, filing a case does not guarantee a victory!

The case filer's representative can appear in court, but the court hearing ultimately depends on the evidence!
To be honest, they don't have any concrete evidence that Zhang Shan was killed by Zhu Haoyi, unless they find the body of Zhang Shan's wife, which could prove that she didn't abscond with the money, thus pinning the suspicion on the other party.

Even so, it is still extremely difficult.

After all, they are currently in Shangcheng, and even if the corpses still exist, they would only be in Zhengyang City.
Have you investigated Zhu Haoyi and Li Yang's identities?

Xu Liang suddenly spoke up and asked Yang Ruoxi.

Because of the Dongguo avoidance system, Yang Ruoxi was unable to attend the court hearing as a lawyer in Shangcheng.

But it's perfectly fine to be his deputy and investigate things privately.

"We investigated, and they are all clearly highly educated individuals."

Yang Ruoxi nodded.

With Wang Yao as his backer, he only needed to ask around a little, and Zhu Haoyi and Li Yang's identities were revealed to him as if they were blank sheets of paper.

"What's your background?" Xu Liang asked.

"Hmm, looking at the resume alone, there's nothing wrong with it."

Yang Ruoxi hesitated before speaking, then said:
"Zhu Haoyi appeared at the port in his early years. His family was quite wealthy. However, because the Eastern Kingdom was raising its flag there, he went to the Western Kingdom to study due to business issues."

“I returned to Dongguo when I was thirty years old, and then I used all my belongings to establish Zhengyang Mining Enterprise.”

Then came mining and selling minerals, which was no different from any other mining company.

Until now
The other party has set its sights on Liu Jinshui and Zhang Shan, and the rare earth mine beneath their factory.

Rare earth elements are something that humanity will inevitably have to rely on for future technological development.

Currently, Dongguo can monopolize the global market, and judging from this alone, its future development prospects have already surpassed those of other countries by half.

just
"He wants to cooperate with state-owned enterprises?"

"Even if you cooperate with state-owned enterprises, you should hardly make any money."

Xu Liang fell into deep thought.

There are two models for rare earths: either sell raw ore or cooperate with state-owned enterprises to establish projects and then have the state-owned enterprises refine the ore.

However, since the core technologies are controlled by state-owned enterprises, mining companies don't make much money.

Of course, it's also possible that Zhu Haoyi genuinely wants to make money.

But
In a trance.

Xu Liang seemed to realize something. He looked up, narrowed his eyes at Yang Ruoxi, and said softly:
"Wait, what are you saying?"

"Did Zhu Haoyi grow up and study in the West?"
