Chapter 82 Judge: Why is my life so miserable!

The creation of viral news often requires the combination of real-time social factors.

It's difficult for laypeople to analyze what news will break out and why.

Zhang Tao respected Xu Liang, but only as a lawyer; after all, journalism had absolutely nothing to do with him.

The news that the other party claims is highly artistic may not even make a ripple after it is published.

but.
10 month 27 day.

At the entrance of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Hongfu District.

After Xu Liang whispered something to the people from the two media companies.

Zhang Tao looked at Xu Liang with a shocked expression, his mind reeling and his eyes filled with disbelief.

He truly hadn't expected that Xu Liang actually possessed such a valuable piece of information!

After receiving an affirmative answer.

Zhang Tao quickly took Li Ye back to the company and they wrote an article overnight.

That night.

An article, amidst the chirping of cicadas in the silent night, quietly circulated.

Ten p.m.

In front of a dimly lit computer screen.

A bespectacled man, looking slightly bored, moved his mouse and became the first person to click on the news.

As he gradually scrolled down to look down...
His expression gradually turned bewildered, and shock began to build in his pupils!

This is the first person.

Then came the second, the third, and the fourth.
That night, in the form of public opinion, it spread across the internet at an alarming speed, infecting everyone!
It was as if it had turned into a plague.

June 10.

8:20 a.m.

The entrance to the People's Court in Hongfu District, Hanhai City.

Judge Zhang Bo, wearing a long robe and a smile, went to work. He clocked in at the time clock, then picked up his briefcase and slowly walked towards his office.

People who meet him on the street will greet Zhang Bo respectfully.

When facing them, Zhang Bo would smile and nod politely.

Upon arriving at the office, the other judges appeared before him.

These people are gathered together, and I don't know what they're doing.

Zhang Bo didn't rush to work. Instead, he first put the tea leaves he had in his bag into his water cup before getting a cup of hot water.

"Gulu~!"

Boiling water steeps the tea leaves, releasing a delicate fragrance into the air.

Zhang Bo sat in his office chair, blew on the tea slightly, and then pursed his lips. The clear tea slowly slid down his throat from his lips.

"Whoo~"

Zhang Bo felt the warmth coming from his chest, let out a long sigh, and smiled.

"Getting promoted like this means things are different now!"

Looking back to when I was just a clerk before my promotion, I was never this relaxed.
Court clerks have to record court proceedings, organize materials, and be summoned by judges—purely manual laborers!
it's good now.

He became a judge, no longer handling such matters, and began arbitrating cases.

although
"Although the first case I was in charge of had a bit of an unexpected turn of events."

Recalling the Sun Quan case, Zhang Bo suddenly felt that even the tea in his hand didn't taste good anymore.

Xu Liang's face subconsciously appeared in his mind, making his heart tighten.

But the good thing is.
At least we made it through!

"Moreover, I took on this case rashly because I was new to the area and hadn't learned about the local legal system."

Think of this.

Zhang Bo's tense expression relaxed slightly.

"But things are different now. We've gained a thorough understanding of Hongfu District in the last two days!"

"The whole Hongfu District is normal, there are no troublesome lawyers. As long as we avoid that kid, life is still very promising!"

"Furthermore, how many major cases are there?"

In a city, the number of criminal homicides that occur throughout the year is actually not that many.

In the previous life, before 00, there were more cases a year, but since the Sky Eye system cooperated with the police investigation and social civilization gradually improved.

If a city has ten criminal homicide cases a year that require criminal investigation, that's considered a lot!
Let's assume there are ten, and all of them are solved.

There are at least five pieces of evidence and a complete logical chain, and four of them are confessed by the murderers. The last one may be a case of manslaughter or other issues that need to be considered for sentencing.

Where are there so many cases that are difficult to judge?

Let alone just one district, how could there be so many major cases?!
Thinking like this.

Zhang Bo took a leisurely sip of tea, then turned to look at Liu Jian in the office. "Hey, Lao Liu."

"I saw you all gathered together as soon as you walked in. What are you doing?"

From the moment he came in at work and started making tea until now, Liu Jian has been gathered with a group of people.

Upon hearing this, Liu Jian turned his head and glanced at the computer screen with a livid face, then turned back without saying a word and continued looking at the computer screen.

Zhang Bo became curious and got up to go over.

"I'll take a look."

Liu Jian and others are watching the news.
Zhang Bo pushed through the crowd and peered at the screen.

But just that one glance left him completely stunned.

A series of news articles suddenly appeared on the screen.

Shocking! A horrific patricide has occurred in Hanhai City!

"Body dumped in water tank for 22 years, victim only three years old! The murderer is his own mother!!!"

A family of human traffickers! The Sun Quan case takes another turn; Zhou Xu's mother is dubbed a "female demon"!

A farce unfolds: Zhou Xu's true family identity, and his 'mother' is surprisingly...

"."

"What the hell?!"

Seeing that every news article contained the words "Hongfu District," he was completely stunned, his mind buzzing.

"Look for yourself."

Liu Jian's face was extremely grim as he clicked on the source of all the news articles.

After Zhang Bo finished reading it...

His heart skipped a beat.

"Parricide!?"

Zhang Bo's voice was somewhat loud, and his eyes widened.

"This isn't just an ordinary case of patricide; the protagonist is even Zheng Mei."

The others spoke up silently.

A twisted and abnormal love affair; she strangled her own child to death in a water tank.

They usurped other people's children, raising them as their own, and even training them to become human traffickers.
Is this even human?!

This news was broadcast.

Everyone who watched felt a chill run down their spine, and at the same time, felt angry.

In just one night, with the help of countless media outlets that followed suit, it spread throughout the national internet!

God knows what their expressions were like when they came to court this morning and saw the news!
Hongfu District.
When did it become so terrifying?!
"Sigh, this..."

Zhang Bo's face was ashen as he stared intently at the so-called 'Zheng Mei' in the news.

He knows Zheng Mei better than any judge.

no way.

He was in charge of the Zhou Xu and Sun Quan case!
If Zheng Mei is interrogated, what if something gets implicated?
Zhang Bo has to take responsibility for that.

"Old Zhang, you..."

Liu Jian was somewhat relieved that he wasn't the presiding judge, and then looked at Zhang Bo with sympathetic eyes.

"Sigh, to be honest, I don't think it will affect Sun Quan's case, Lao Zhang, don't worry."

Zhang Bo forced a stiff smile.

Ha ha.

Zhang Bo remained silent.

He now misses his days as a court clerk.

At least back then, although it was tiring, I wouldn't have come to Hongfu District.

He will not serve as the presiding judge in Zhou Xu's case.

And you definitely won't run into that stubborn, inflexible lawyer!!!

of course.

He wasn't the only one who shared the same idea.

Hanhai Intermediate People's Court.

Location of Sun Quan's second trial.

Zhao Yi stared at the computer screen in front of him, tilted his head, and remained silent.

sometimes.

Silence is also a form of expression!
