Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

1 month 30 day.

Thanh Wu Province, Ngoc Sen City.

It's 8:30 in the morning.

In front of the operating room.

"Hiss~ Whoosh~"

"How could something like this happen again during the Lunar New Year? There was a criminal case in early November last year, why is it happening again now?"

"Alright, stop complaining. That's just how it is in the police profession. You have to be mentally prepared before you enter the job."

"Master, tomorrow is New Year's Eve."

"I'll give you four hours of leave the day after tomorrow, February 1st, the day of the Lunar New Year, so you can go home for the holiday. You'll return to the police station at noon."

Inside the First People's Hospital of Lusen City.

The corridor was cool and quiet, filled with the smell of disinfectant and the rhythmic "drip-drip" of various instruments.

Two policemen sat opposite the main entrance of the operating room, exchanging whispers.

As they spoke, a young policeman sighed. He glanced out of the corner of his eye at the figure crouching by the door and whispered:

"I'm talking about her. How is that little girl going to spend New Year's Eve...?"

Li Xiang glanced at him sideways, shook his head, and said, "Just mind your own business."

It happened on the night of the 29th, around midnight.

Police in Green Forest City received a report of a criminal assault and immediately gathered their equipment and rushed to the scene.

The site is a garbage dump in a corner of Green Forest City.

The landfill was not built by the government.

Instead, a large number of residents disregarded the rules, and since there were not many trash cans around, they littered indiscriminately in that open space.

Once there's one, there's two; once there's two, there's three; and eventually, that open space became a garbage dump.

Upon arriving at the scene, the police did not arrest anyone, but they found a finger... a bitten-off finger.

"Master, what about the suspect? How is he now?"

The young policeman asked again.

"He lost a finger and is now receiving treatment at another hospital."

Li Xiang took a deep breath. "At least a week."

Upon hearing this, the young policeman couldn't help but say:

"A week? I'm afraid he'll be released on bail again in a week."

"Not to mention that the person is mentally ill, and claimed to be having an episode at the time of the incident, which is advantageous to him both during the trial and while awaiting trial." "The police can't detain him, and the court can't try him... this..."

"Shhh."

Li Xiang nodded, then held up his hand to make a "shush" gesture.

He glanced out of the corner of his eye at the incredibly silent, thin, dark figure squatting at the operating room door, then nodded.

"Keep your voice down," Li Xiang said.

The young policeman paused, then swallowed back what he was about to say.

The police have arrested the person.

The other person was seriously injured; their little finger was bitten off, and they must receive treatment.

In the early hours of the morning, police focused their investigations on community clinics, hospitals, and pharmacies near the crime scene, specifically targeting individuals with similar injuries and those who purchased anti-inflammatory medications.

Ultimately, the focus narrowed down to one man, and his information...

[Liu Guofu, male, 38 years old, has a criminal record and a history of schizophrenia....]

"Mental illness..."

The two policemen murmured to themselves, then fell silent.

Not long after.

"Da da da"

Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps rang out.

Li Xiang looked up and saw a figure walking towards him, carrying a plastic bag full of snacks. "Boss, I couldn't buy any food outside, so I had to buy some light breakfast from the hospital."

"As for snacks, I had to run around several blocks to buy this much."

The police officer who ran over bent over, placed his hands on his knees, and, panting heavily, handed over everything with his other hand.

It consisted of some breakfast items and a bag full of puffed snacks.

"Okay, write down the cost, the police station will reimburse you."

Li Xiang nodded, took the snacks, and then grabbed some food before walking towards the gaunt, dark figure squatting on the ground. The person was wearing a hospital gown.

The loose blue and white striped hospital gown accentuated his figure, revealing his thin, bony frame, malnourished, sallow skin, and brittle, short hair.

The most eye-catching thing is...

His head and arms were wrapped in gauze, clearly indicating that he had suffered considerable injuries.

"Dada"

Li Xiang walked to Zhang Da's side, looked at his figure, and said softly:

"Don't worry, it'll be fine."

"Let's eat something first. We can't let ourselves get sick from starving."

The other person was like a statue.

A statue, squatting on the ground, silent and unable to hear what was happening outside, offered no response.

Upon seeing this, Li Xiang paused for a moment.

"Sigh~"

Then, he sighed softly, reached out and rubbed the other person's shoulder, intending to comfort him.

But when my palm touched the other person's shoulder, I could feel the distinct bones, which were painfully hard to swallow.

Suddenly, Li Xiang's expression turned sour.

"What is the Civil Affairs Bureau doing?"

He cursed inwardly, yet was utterly helpless.

He simply placed the food on both sides of the other person, and squatted down beside them without saying a word.

until..

"Beep beep beep~"

In a daze.

Suddenly, a piercing, clear sound came from the operating room beside me, and the red indicator light on the door abruptly turned green.

Followed by.

"Sizzle!"

The operating room door was pushed open.

A doctor wearing a blue-green surgical gown and a mask, with bloodshot eyes, came out, slightly removed his mask, and greedily inhaled the fresh air.

And as he walked out.

Several more figures emerged from the operating room and appeared before the crowd.

That was an operating table. A girl with a deathly pale face and bloodless lips lay on it with her eyes closed. Several doctors were pushing it around her, and another doctor was holding up a bottle of medicine, which was dripping down.

See here.

Everyone, including Li Xiang, immediately stood up. Zhang Da also stood up, but she stood outside the crowd, silently watching the person on the stretcher through the throng. "Doctor, doctor..."

Li Xiang approached the doctor.

"How is it? How is the patient?!"

A sound rang out.

Upon hearing this, the doctor, who was still breathing, looked up at the group and said:

"Thankfully, I'm alive."

"The patient suffered multiple comminuted fractures of the skull and brain hemorrhage, and the injuries were serious... but timely medical attention prevented a life-threatening situation." "Based on information provided by the police, preliminary analysis..."

"It should be because the assailant's little finger was missing, leading to a lack of strength."

Comminuted skull fracture, cerebral hemorrhage.

Just hearing these two descriptions made everyone's hearts sink.

But everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that his life was not in danger.

Two fingers are the most important on a person's hand.

First, there's the thumb. It almost encompasses the functions of all the fingers; without it, it's difficult to perform any movements.

Second, the little finger. You may think that the little finger is useless because it is very small, but that is not the case. If you lose it, you will lose a lot of strength and it will be difficult to even hold things firmly.

Zhang Er bit off Liu Guofu's right little finger.

Whether you attack with your left or right hand (which is not your dominant hand), you can, to some extent, mitigate the severity of the injury.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness, it's good that we're still alive."

Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief at that moment.

Zhang Da, who was standing to one side, loosened his tightly clenched hands and kept his head down, remaining silent and not saying a word.

The doctor then said:

"As for what happens next... although his life has been saved, the real challenge is just beginning. The patient won't wake up in the short term."

"You've all noticed that medical resources in Green Forest City are limited."

talking.

The doctor pointed around.

The First People's Hospital is one of the best hospitals in Lusen City.

But by this time, most doctors had already gone home for the New Year, and only the emergency room doctors remained. Even the inpatient building was nearly deserted, with hardly any patients in sight.

The medical standards are not exactly backward, but they are not much better than average.

Regarding brain trauma recovery, I recommend that you transfer to another hospital for treatment.

"Yanjing, Haicheng, and Chengdu are all fine."

The doctor casually remarked, offering advice.

In terms of brain care, Green Forest City is not as strong as the aforementioned hospitals, namely Tiantan Hospital, Huashan Hospital, and West China Hospital of Sichuan University in Chengdu, which are considered the top three in the field of brain trauma.

The doctor wanted to leave.

But as he lifted his foot, he saw the emaciated Zhang Da, his feet firmly planted on the ground, and then he said:

"As for the future, we can consider moving to Chengdu."

"West China Hospital is the best in the west, and its medical expenses are much lower than those at Tiantan and Huashan Hospitals, about 20% cheaper."

"Um...you police officers should remember to go downstairs to pay the fee later."

The words were spoken.

The doctor then left and walked outside.

Only a few policemen were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

However, the news wasn't all bad.

"Eat up, child. Listen to your uncle, you eat first."

Li Xiang exhaled, turned to look at Changda, and gently advised him.

Zhang Da remained silent, simply standing there like a tree.

See here.

Li Xiang was also helpless, and he could only look at the police officer beside him.

"Xiao Zhang, take your family to the ICU to see the patient..."

He lowered his voice, paused, and said, "Let her eat something while we're at it. This can't go on forever; she'll wear herself out." Officer Zhang nodded, picked up the warm breakfast from the ground, and walked towards the long road.

"Come with me, let's go see your sister."

Zhang Da silently followed.

Operating room door.

I could smell that disgusting disinfectant odor.

Li Xiang turned around and looked at the police officer beside him, his face showing worry.

"Tsk, what a hassle."

"The case itself is easy to investigate; in a couple of days, I reckon all the evidence will be gathered. But the problem is..."

"The patient definitely needs to be transferred to another hospital."

"I can't find a civil lawyer again, ugh. What a hassle."

Li Xiang sighed.

Liu Guofu has been apprehended, and Zhang Er is being transferred to another hospital. He's currently unconscious and unable to speak, which will make the subsequent trial very difficult. Unless the case is also transferred to Chengdu.

"What's the situation with the suspect?"

After thinking for a moment, Li Xiang asked.

The officer replied, "They probably wanted to transfer the case. Liu Guofu is from Yongzhou, but he fled to Sichuan with his parents when they were young. "After that, he settled in Chengdu, Sichuan."

"He committed a crime there, underwent a mental health test, and was subsequently exonerated. The locals were so angry they wanted to eat him alive."

"I can't even buy anything, that's why I'm in this situation."

"Liu Guofu had no choice but to come to Lusen City, but this bastard... he's only been in Lusen City for less than a month, and he's already gotten into trouble again!" The police officer cursed at the man briefly, then paused and continued:

"In short, all relevant medical records are in Chengdu."

"This is advantageous to them. Currently, it seems likely that they will apply for cross-provincial review."

Li Xiang was somewhat taken aback.

Cases are generally reviewed in the place where they occurred, but it is not impossible to apply for review in another location.

Generally, a place of long-term residence will become a secondary alternative.

The victim needs treatment... or rather, life-threatening treatment is necessary.

The suspect's file is there... so the intermediate and higher courts will likely release the case, and the Supreme Court has a good chance of agreeing as well. Of course, this is all predicated on...

"What about civil litigation lawyers?"

The policeman asked a question, his face showing hesitation.

"Liu Guofu's parents made a lot of money in their early years; they were contractors, and their family had quite a bit of money."

"The victims...their treatment will cost a lot of money."

It doesn't matter where the case is being handled.

This is a matter for prosecutors, but prosecutors are not responsible for securing civil damages for the other party; a lawyer is necessary.

this.

"All the lawyers in Green Forest City have left. Those who should close down should close down, and those who should take a holiday should take a holiday."

"During the Lunar New Year, I doubt many people would be willing to rush over at the last minute."

The officer hesitated before speaking.

Li Xiang paused for a moment, then continued:

"Where's Xu De? Judging from what that child said at the beginning... how could they possibly be connected to Attorney Xu?"

"Attorney Xu... doesn't he need to celebrate the Lunar New Year?" the police officer asked hesitantly.

"Sigh, who will orphans spend the New Year with?"

Li Xiang shook his head. He and Xu De were quite familiar with each other, so he naturally knew about Xu De's background.

No family, no relatives, no childhood friends, and the only elder in my family is dead... Celebrate the New Year? Who will I spend it with?

"Besides."

"The emergency contact number that the child left was Xu De's."

"Let's contact him first."

Li Xiang spoke up.

As he spoke, he took out his phone, and with a "beep beep beep" sound, he began to dial a number.

Xu De once gave Zhang Da and Zhang Er their phone numbers, which he wrote down on a piece of paper.

The original intention was to contact him when I needed him but couldn't find him, but I never expected to need him at this time.

As for Li Xiang...

He had been acting quite casually, but now... for some reason, he suddenly became nervous.

until..

"Beep~"

The call was connected.

Li Xiang's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively blurted out:

"Feed? Attorney Xu?"

"It's me, Officer Li. Happy New Year."

A gentle voice came from the speaker.

Upon hearing this...

Li Xiang, on the other hand, didn't know what to say. He opened his mouth, but something stuck in his throat. After a long silence, he finally forced himself to speak:

"that.."

"Two children are currently in Green Forest City, where they were bullied... The younger one was seriously injured, suffering a brain hemorrhage and a skull fracture, and is currently receiving treatment in the hospital."

"Now."

Li Xiang slowly began to speak, recounting all the information about the case.

a long time.

There was no sound from the other end of the phone.

Just as Li Xiang and the others were pondering what had happened, they suddenly...

Which hospital?

A voice rang out, devoid of emotion, but it was no longer as gentle as before.

"Lusen City First People's Hospital"

"it is good."

The next second, the call was disconnected.

"Beep beep~"

The sound faded.

Li Xiang and the police officer exchanged a glance, both hesitant for a moment, but then the hesitation vanished.

Simply because...

The officer's phone vibrated. He looked down at it and his expression immediately changed.

"Master, what about Liu Guofu...?"

"Liu Guofu is applying for bail pending trial."
