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

Chapter 58 The Biggest Challenge! [Please Read On!]

李翠
Li Cui is here!?
“His second aunt cares a lot about Sun Qian, saying that she has been searching for her for 13 years and has finally found her.”

Yang Ruoxi's face showed a happy expression. She hadn't interrogated Sun Quan, so she naturally didn't notice anything unusual.

Xu Liang, however, was different.

"13 years. Did you remind her? Or did she remember the time herself?"

Upon hearing this, the person in front of him paused, pondered for a moment, and then said:

“I asked a friend at the newspaper to leave my phone number in my hometown of Sunquan.”

“Li Cui was the first to make the call. Her first words were, ‘I am the second aunt who was abducted 13 years ago.’ Then she said she really wanted to come and was on her way.”

"Judging from the voice on the phone, it sounds like they're on a train. They shouldn't be here for long."

Upon hearing this, a thought flashed across Xu Liang's eyes.

in such a hurry?
The time is recorded so accurately.
For a moment, Xu Liang stood still, not moving for a long time.

Upon seeing this, Yang Ruoxi frowned.

"What, is there something wrong with this person?"

To be honest, she had known Xu Liang for almost three months and was gradually becoming familiar with his movements.

The furrowed brow definitely meant he had thought of something!
Hearing the noise, Xu Liang came to his senses and looked at Yang Ruoxi seriously.

When will Li Cui arrive?

"I'm not sure, but it should be in the next day or two," Yang Ruoxi replied.

Sun Quan's hometown is in the south, nearly a thousand kilometers away. These days, it would take several days to get there by train.

"Okay, if she contacts you when she arrives in Hanhai, remember to give me a call."

Xu Liang gave a word of advice.

After saying that, he went to the Criminal Investigation Brigade to retrieve the deceased's file information.

However, Yang Ruoxi stopped him as soon as he lifted his leg.

"Attorney Xu, you see, I haven't caused any trouble in this case, and I've actually helped a lot. Could you..."

Yang Ruoxi avoided eye contact, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"You still want to join a law firm?" Xu Liang immediately understood her thoughts upon hearing this and was somewhat surprised.

I was about to refuse, but then I thought about it again.

It's not that the other party is incompetent; they simply don't know how to manage money, which is a consequence of comparing them to the cases Xu Liang handled.

Putting aside other cases, in the Chen Dong case and the Sun Quan case, not only in Hanhai City, but also in the entire Lanshan Province, there are very few cases where people dared to make a not guilty plea without even any information.

Not to mention he's just a lawyer in his early twenties.

The other party did indeed help in this case, working tirelessly and without complaint. Sun Quan's identity information was provided by the other party, and so far, no reward has been received.

only.
Xu Liang looked at her fair and delicate face, thought for a moment, and then painted a big picture for her.

"You're still a little short. You'll be fine once you get a little thicker-skinned."

In criminal cases, you have to fight for everything yourself; if you're not thick-skinned enough, you'll only make your clients suffer.

Finished.

Xu Liang then rushed to the Criminal Investigation Brigade and quickly found Wang Chao, asking him to provide him with injury reports for Sui Shan and Zhou Xu, as well as the three corpses.

Yang Ruoxi was left behind, lost in thought, before pinching her cheek.

After a long while, Yang Ruoxi came to her senses, looking somewhat surprised and uncertain.

"Wait, is he just making empty promises to me?"

After much deliberation, Yang Ruoxi finally decided to take the bait and excitedly continued to contact Li Cui.

However, this time when she contacted me, she was very wary and didn't reveal any information.

And Xu Liang.

After receiving the death report and the case file, he quickly left the criminal investigation team and returned to his law firm to begin studying them carefully.

Inside the law firm.

"The two brothers from Suishan are named Zhou Yong and Zhou Qiang. The former is 53 years old and the latter is 51 years old."

"Zhou Yong died from an abdominal wound; the sickle ripped open his abdomen, causing his internal organs to shatter and resulting in his immediate death."

"Zhou Qiang's fatal injury was to his neck, where the sickle severed an artery. Although emergency treatment was given, the injury was too severe, and the police and medical personnel wasted too much time, leading to massive bleeding and death."

7 p.m.

Inside the bedroom, Xu Liang sat on the bed, his brow furrowed as he looked at the dossier in his hand. The Zhou brothers were easy to deal with.

The fact that Sun Quan had fatal wounds proves that without the police, he would definitely have died in Suishan!

If he had used this injury properly, it would have been enough to justify killing the two people as self-defense.

Neither of them had any parents still alive, so no one would appeal their deaths.

just
"Zhou Xu, the cause of death, according to his confession, was a brain hemorrhage caused by a blow to the back of his head from being hit by a brick."

"Police have found the murder weapon, one corner of which was stained with blood, and the blood splatter at the scene also confirms this information."

Xu Liang murmured to himself, focusing his gaze on the second file.

The difficult part is dealing with Zhou Xu!
The other party had no connection to the abduction of Sun Qian 13 years ago, yet died at the hands of Sun Quan, during which Zhou Xu showed no intention of attacking.
From a court's perspective, this is clearly intentional assault!
If Zhang Cheng, the top lawyer Zhu Hong hired in the previous case, were the opponent, they could definitely seize on this point and convict him of intentional injury!
There's even a possibility it was intentional homicide.
"At the very least, it's manslaughter, and a very serious one at that."

"And then there's the desecration of corpses, which is the most serious category."

Xu Liang murmured.

The information obtained by the police was too comprehensive.

There's absolutely no room for maneuver on this point!

"I have a headache."

Xu Liang rubbed his temples and glanced at the time on his phone.

Before I knew it, it was already 10:30 p.m.

Seeing this, he stopped dwelling on the details, got up, tidied up the files, and put them in his briefcase.

Although the remaining time is not long, there is no need to rush.

After washing up, Xu Liang went to bed hastily.

The next day.

8 month 22 number.

Xu Liang got up early at seven o'clock in the morning.

He was having breakfast when Yang Ruoxi suddenly called him, pulling him away.

Sun Quan's second aunt.
We have arrived in Hanhai City!
No.

Or rather, the other party arrived at the Hanhai City Police Station without even having eaten!

At 7:30, Xu Liang arrived at the Municipal Bureau, where Yang Ruoxi had been waiting for him in the lobby for a long time.

Beside him was a middle-aged couple, around fifty years old.

"Who are you two?"

Xu Liang looked at the two of them with a smiling expression.

Yang Ruoxi, who was standing nearby, quickly explained, "This is Sun Quan's second aunt, her name is Li Cui, you can just call her Aunt Li."

She spoke to a woman who was thin, with sunken cheeks, bulging eyes, and looked like a cat.

The other was a man with a dark complexion, short white hair, a wrinkled face, and slanted eyes.

"This is Sun Quan's second uncle, named Sun Li."

After speaking, Yang Ruoxi gestured to Xu Liang with her eyes.

The two men immediately started bombarding her with questions, and to avoid revealing any information, she could only give vague answers. Now, she was starting to feel overwhelmed.

as predicted.

Before Xu Liang could speak, the thin Li Cui couldn't help but look at him and hurriedly said:
"Are you Koizumi's lawyer?"

"How is Xiaoqian now!?"

As he spoke, his anxious expression was revealed, and his eyes were fixed on Xu Liang.

Sun Li couldn't hold back any longer and chimed in, "Have you still remembered your family these past few years?"

He immediately asked Sun Qian.
Xu Liang raised an eyebrow and saw Yang Ruoxi winking at him, immediately realizing that the two of them knew nothing about the current status of the case.

I don't know anything.
That would be easy.

Xu Liang revealed a smiling expression and slowly began to speak:

"Sun Qian."

"When the police found her, she was in Suishan, and she kept muttering about her parents."
