Seventy Legally Blonde

Chapter 591 Relief
Xiang Wei and Xiang Jingshan's uncle and nephew split up according to Zhou Niannian's instructions.

The next day, Zhou Niannian took the report he had written to the third uncle to the Bureau of Investigation, and applied for a new autopsy on Zhang Dong.

Things didn't go as smoothly as she had imagined.

People from the investigation bureau said that Zhou Niannian's application had to be discussed with medical experts. If most of the medical experts thought her analysis was reasonable and agreed with her conclusion, the investigation bureau would agree to re-do the autopsy.

Re-conducting the autopsy is the key point of this case, and Zhou Niannian also knows that it is normal for the Bureau of Investigation to be cautious.

When Zhou Niannian came back from the investigation bureau, he saw a crowd of people around the entrance of the consulting office from a distance.

She frowned, and hurried over. Behind the crowd, she saw Zhang Lixian and a dozen people sitting quietly at the door of the consulting office, holding a large white cloth in her hand.

There is a large line of characters written on the white cloth: Protest against lawyers covering criminals and return justice to the dead

Zhang Lixian and his wife sat under the white cloth, weeping and telling about the "crime" of the consulting office.

Zhou Niannian frowned when he saw it, it was a plan that failed, but another plan.

I have to say that Zhang Lixian's move is quite clever. The last time he went to the consultant's office to make trouble, Zhou Niannian was able to get people to report the case. Now he leads people to sit quietly and cry at the door of the consultant's office, which will only bring more sympathy. It's not easy to catch them.

This can be really tricky.

Zhou Niannian quietly walked around behind the crowd, planning to go back to the dormitory first, and then come to the counseling office later, her appearance here will only make things more difficult.

As soon as she moved, Mrs. Zhang Lixian found her, stood up suddenly and rushed over, hugging Zhou Niannian's thigh.

"Comrade, I beg you, I will kneel down for you, I will kowtow to you." Zhang Lixian's mother-in-law was crying with snot and tears, knelt on the ground and hugged Zhou Niannian's leg without letting go.

"My son died unjustly. Please, don't help the murderer, okay? Please let my son die in peace."

Zhang Lixian also knelt down, and said with a sad face: "Comrade Zhou, I know that my son did something wrong back then. I'm sorry for your Rainbow Factory, but he has already paid the price and spent three years in prison."

"Now that he has gone, please don't worry about this matter if you have a lot of adults, okay?"

"Our whole family is begging you, please give my son some justice?"

Zhang Lixian deliberately made his words ambiguous, making the onlookers misunderstand that Zhou Niannian deliberately shielded Zhang Peilan because he had a grudge against Zhang Dong, and the purpose was to get revenge on the Zhang family.

People are more likely to have sympathy for the weak who appear on the outside. Sure enough, after hearing the words of Zhang Lixian and his wife, the surrounding people condemned Zhou Niannian.

"It's really cruel. I still remember what happened so many years ago. Even if people die, they still don't let them go."

"Yeah, what kind of lawyer is this? He's really cruel."

"It's said that the dead are the greatest, and the grievances and grievances will be settled after death. Girl, I advise you to be kind." Someone took the initiative to stand up and persuade Zhou Niannian to be kind.

Zhou Niannian sighed helplessly, she really wanted to give this sentence to Zhang Lixian.

"Get up, it's useless for me to kneel like this," she looked at Zhang Lixian and his wife indifferently, "I'm just doing my job, and I don't have any personal grievances in it."

"If you think that ordinary people can deal with me, and I'm afraid that I won't take this case anymore, then you're wrong."

Zhou Niannian looked at Zhang Lixian with a half-smile, "I've never been afraid of public opinion and accusations, if you think this will scare me, then you can come here as much as you want."

Zhang Lixian and his wife looked at Zhou Niannian in a daze, they never thought that Zhou Niannian would be so persistent, and the public opinion was not afraid.

Seeing this, the surrounding people had everything to say, but most of them still held an attitude of accusation towards Zhou Niannian.

"Everyone be quiet, please listen to me." Someone behind the crowd shouted loudly, "There is a misunderstanding about this matter."

Misunderstanding?

The crowd gave way one after another, Zhou Niannian raised his head and saw Director Zheng standing behind the crowd, followed by Gao Zhiyong who was out of breath.

Director Zheng went straight to Zhou Niannian and raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Director Zheng, who is in charge of judicial work in our county," Director Zheng introduced himself to the crowd, "That is the superior of Lawyer Zhou."

When the onlookers heard that it was Zhou Niannian's superior, they began to discuss in a low voice, but the atmosphere was not as chaotic as before. After all, Director Zheng is a cadre in the county.

This is the mentality of ordinary people. They feel that if cadres come out to solve this matter, their emotions will naturally be much calmer.

Some people even asked loudly, "Director Zheng, what did you mean when you said there was a misunderstanding?"

Director Zheng Wenyan continued: "That's it. The purpose of our country's establishment of a legal counsel office is to allow all ordinary people to enjoy the rights and interests protected by the law, including criminal suspects."

"How can you include them? Director Zheng," someone in the crowd asked in confusion.

Director Zheng smiled, "The reason why a criminal suspect is called a suspect is that he may have done something that violated the law, but not necessarily. Whether there is a crime or not requires our judicial personnel and lawyers to collect evidence and guess."

"At this time, lawyers are needed to help them collect evidence. If they are wronged, lawyers will help them prove it. If they really violated the law, the court will also sentence them based on inference."

At this point, Director Zheng pointed at Gao Zhiyong, and Zhou Niannian said: "So these lawyers are taking these cases because of policy reforms and for the protection of all the people, not against a certain person."

Is that right?Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Director Zheng nodded frankly, "Of course, you don't trust us, don't you trust the government?"

The voice of discussion in the crowd gradually subsided.

Director Zheng knelt down and held Zhang Lixian's hand, "Comrade Zhang Lixian, I have already learned about your family's situation. We are all very sad and understand your feelings."

"But understanding is one thing, and the work we should do is one thing. Letting lawyers defend suspects is an important part of our country's restructuring of the judicial system. We hope you can understand."

"If you can't understand and feel that sitting here can make you feel better, then I have no objection. I will ask the staff to bring you three meals a day."

Director Zheng stood up after speaking, and waved his hands at the onlookers, "Everyone, don't crowd around here, let's go, and you can follow the newspaper or radio reports for the rest of the matter, I hope you can learn more legal knowledge to protect yourself. "

After the leader said that, the onlookers gradually dispersed, but after a while, only the Zhang family and the consultants were left.

　I wish you all a Happy New Year and a prosperous Year of the Rat!
