Chapter 217: The price has gone up!

The principal has clearly violated the law...

After the three main bases were established.

The prosecutors, who were already somewhat wary, huddled together even more, their faces filled with shock.

guilty......

The defendant's defense attorney is accusing the defendant of guilt!

wrong......

"Master, isn't this job supposed to be done by the prosecutor...?"

On the prosecutor's bench.

Several prosecutors were stunned and hesitated. One of the younger prosecutors looked at Prosecutor Liu Xian and asked in a low voice.

"He did it... so what are we supposed to do?"

Proving guilt, also known as accusation.

Indictments are always made by the plaintiff and the prosecutor.

Now, the defense lawyers are suddenly accusing the defendant of being guilty... So what are the prosecutors supposed to do?

A defense? A defense of the defendant's innocence?

wrong......

"The legal representative seems to be defending the defendant, we..."

The young prosecutor hesitated, unable to find a angle from which to begin his work.

"What are we going to do?"

It's impossible to get it in my mouth, it's really impossible to get it in my mouth.

You're going to file a charge?

Well then, the defendant was overjoyed, looking as if he were defending himself.

You mean defense? They're prosecutors, how could they possibly defend the defendant?!

So here's the question.

What can these prosecutors do in court now...?

"Master, Master, please say something, Master," the young prosecutor asked in a low voice.

Prosecutor Liu Xian was stunned, his forehead was a little hot. He only came back to his senses after hearing the noise. His lips moved for a moment, and he hesitated several times, but still could not say anything. In the end, he fell silent.

He made so many preparations before the trial.

I had considered that the other party might defend themselves from some tricky angles, but I really didn't expect them to plead guilty.

Even more unexpectedly, his "teammate," the civil litigation agent, would surrender!

And, surprisingly, I couldn't say a word...

What?

You're saying that it's enough for the prosecutor to simply perform their duties and continue the prosecution regardless of other factors?

The charges have already been filed in the first instance.

The charges in the second instance were based on the other party's rejection.

But...they pleaded guilty, and the defendant hasn't raised any objections to the charges brought by the prosecution in the first instance. What's the point of them bringing charges now?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems there really is nothing that can be done. One can only stand there like an audience member in the audience, staring blankly at this pot of mush.

"Let's keep watching," Liu Xian said.

"Oh." The young prosecutor nodded.

......

"Beast...beast!"

"Is he serious? He'd rather lose all three million and go to jail, and fight Tianhe Pharmaceutical to the death?!"

Agent's seat.

Sun Qiao was shocked; he knew the other party had strong legal abilities.

But you're very capable... you need to use your abilities in the right places!

What do you mean by using your superior legal skills to attack your own client?

Are you kidding me?!

"Section Chief Sun, he's a madman...we...we can't outmaneuver him..."

One side.

A hint of fear flashed in Zheng Tong's eyes as he muttered something to himself.

"He didn't even bring any defense materials; he clearly came intending to take everyone down with him!"

"Shut up!"

Sun Qiao's face grew increasingly grim, turning a dark, almost black color that seemed to seep water.

"What to do... what to do..."

Sun Qiao racked his brains, trying to figure it out.

At the same time, his thinking was becoming increasingly extreme. His eyes were fixed on Xu De, and a single sentence echoed in his mind.

"No, he's definitely pressuring Tianhe Pharmaceutical. He doesn't really want to convict them, he's just trying to coerce them..."

Sun Qiao's contemplation takes time.

The court clearly wouldn't give him any time to think, and the proceedings continued.

......

On the judge's bench.

After exchanging views for a short while, the judges...

Judge Zhang Wei finally composed himself and turned to look at the defendant's seat.

"The defendant."

The defendant's seat.

Wearing a uniform and handcuffed, Gao Yu straightened up and said, "Present."

He remained calm, showing no signs of fear...

Do you agree with what your defense attorney has said?

Judge Zhang looked suspicious and spoke in a strange tone.

Gao Yu nodded. "I agree, Your Honor. The defense attorney's opinion is my opinion, and I have given him full authority to represent me."

this......

Zhang Wei's expression was somewhat strange.

After a long while.

The presiding judge looked at the prosecutor's bench and asked:

"Prosecutor, do you have any further objections?"

Is this... a preparatory ruling?

Yes.

The second trial will be much faster than the first trial!

Xu Dexiangqian said so.

The basis for the second instance trial is based on the first instance trial. As long as there is no new evidence, the verdict will be delivered quickly according to the first instance trial.

only......

"A verdict!? No...that's not right..."

Agent's seat.

Sun Qiao's pupils suddenly contracted, his hands clenched tightly, and his breathing became heavy.

"No, they must still be threatening us... This is a threat... I don't believe it, I don't believe they won't speak up during the ruling..."

His mind was practically screaming.

The prosecutor's stand.

"Your Honor...we have no objection."

Prosecutor Liu Xian hesitated and shook his head.

To be honest, he had objections. At the very least, the second trial shouldn't just end with him reading a statement of indictment.

Presiding Judge Zhang Wei nodded, his gaze slowly shifting to the defendant's seat and the dock.

As the other party's gaze shifted away, Sun Qiao, the agent, became increasingly nervous.

Presiding Judge Zhang Wei said again:

"Defendant, do you... have any further objections?"

Gao Yu shook her head frankly, without the slightest expression, and said, "I have no objection."

Xu De shook his head slightly.

Whether there's an argument or not doesn't really matter, since Gao Yu is eager to compensate and give money to Tianhe Pharmaceutical Company.

The court won't scrutinize these kinds of cases too thoroughly, since it's not a crime. Theoretically, this is a good thing; there's no reason to analyze it as meticulously as if it were a criminal offense. If they're willing to give it, then they should.

only.....

To some people, this appears quite terrifying and horrifying.

......

No...no objection.

The verdict is about to be delivered, and you still have no objections?!

The prosecutor's seat and the attorney's seat.

Sun Qiao looked on in astonishment, staring at the other person in disbelief, his heart filled with horror.

In a daze.

A sense of horror and astonishment washed over Sun Qiao, making him realize something.

other side......

It seems like they really came here with the intention of getting a prison sentence!

"Is this for real?"

Zheng Tong, standing to one side, nearly jumped up. His adrenaline surged, his heart pounded faster, and his blood boiled.

until......

"Bang!"

A crisp sound of a gavel echoed from the judge's bench.

Presiding Judge Zhang Wei turned to look at the prosecutor's seat.

All eyes were focused on Sun Qiao. Zhang Wei slowly spoke, asking:

"agent."

"Do you... have any further objections?"

Have it?

to be frank.

Sun Qiao really wanted to fight Xu De to the death, to fight until both sides were severely injured, and neither of them would get away with it.

but......

Feeling the gazes of everyone, including the prosecutor and the court clerk, Sun Qiao opened her mouth, but felt a lump in her throat.

He was furious.

But I was the last person to be questioned!

Once you've spoken up, the next step is the verdict, which is to declare you guilty!

He's guilty... After the initial verdict was upheld, Novartis Group seized the opportunity to attack Tianhe... Sun Qiao, who was brought down by Zhao Gang's interests, will also become famous in the industry, after all, he caused the client tens of millions of yuan in losses, it's hard not to become famous.

If you don't say it.

So... at most, the pharmaceutical company will settle privately, giving a little over ten million.

To tell or not to tell?

Any objections?

Sun Qiao's adrenaline surged, her whole body was urging her on, her heart was racing as if it were about to jump out of her throat, and all her muscles were tense.

"Agent, please make your statement!"

On the judge's bench.

Judge Zhang Wei frowned and questioned the other party again.

"In conclusion, do you have any objections?"

Agent's seat.

Sun Qiao clenched his fists, breathing heavily, and looked at Xu De with his mouth tightly shut.

The other party has already confessed... The final decision rests with you: whether to confront them head-on or...

"objection!"

"Your Honor, I have an objection!"

Sun Qiao suddenly spoke loudly, and then he took a deep breath and loosened his clenched fist.

I'm not playing anymore...

I'm not gambling anymore.

Gambling your own interests with these two lunatics isn't a gamble; it's suicide!

"Your Honor, we request a two-hour recess!"

Suppressing his anger, Sun Qiao looked at the judge's bench and spoke loudly.

"The recess will be used to contact our client and renegotiate the case with the defendant!"

this......

Presiding Judge Zhang Wei hesitated for a moment, but did not reject the case. After all, the case was indeed strange, and if possible, he would like to use the recess to sort out his thoughts.

Zhang Wei looked toward the defendant's dock.

"Do you require a recess?"

Xu De was decisive and directly rejected the offer: "No need!"

"Your Honor, the facts of the case are clear and the evidence is conclusive. We believe that no recess is necessary."

Even a recess isn't allowed?

This wasn't even a long recess, but a short one...

Two hours, just two hours!

Is there really no sense of regression whatsoever?

Sun Qiao's face gradually flushed red, and a surge of suppressed anger welled up inside him.

But fortunately.

"Your Honor, regarding the adjournment, we second the motion and agree to the adjournment," Prosecutor Liu Xian said hesitantly from the prosecution bench.

"it is good."

On the judges' bench, the three judges exhaled a breath of stale air.

Then, before Xu De could refute, Zhang Wei immediately pulled out his gavel and slammed it onto the table.

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound rang out.

Presiding Judge Zhang Weidao:

"We can begin now."

"The court will be adjourned for three hours. The case will resume after three hours!"

It wasn't two hours, they even gave us an extra hour...

The words were spoken.

The three judges then got up and left, exchanging words as they walked.

The same applies to prosecutors.

Xu De looked up at the prosecutor's seat, where Sun Qiao's face was flushed red, and he himself showed a look of regret.

"What a pity. If the case goes to trial, we'll probably get to see Zhao Gang's aerial acrobatics."

Xu De sighed.

If the case is decided, Tianhe will have to pay at least 50 million more in compensation.

The entire 50 million yuan debt is Zhao Gang's fault. He will most likely be removed from his position by the board of directors and kicked out of the pharmaceutical company.

Although the other party may not necessarily jump off the building, since they still have money, they will never regain their previous status in Tianhe.

"Why did he chicken out...?"

Xu De muttered something to Lin Yue, then got up and walked outside.

Lin Yue rolled her eyes at him, then patted her clothes, picked up her empty briefcase, and walked out.

The two rushed towards the waiting room.

only......

As they approached the waiting room, a voice suddenly came from behind them, causing the two to stop in their tracks.

"Xu De... Attorney Xu!"

The voice came from behind, clearly suppressing anger, but it was forcibly covered up, as if trying to appear as normal as possible.

Xu De turned around and looked.

Then, Sun Qiao's figure emerged from behind. He jogged over, and only stopped when he got close, taking a deep breath to calm himself.

"Attorney Xu, I think...we can talk."

Sun Qiao said through gritted teeth.

Regarding this case...we can compromise on your four demands.

I cancelled it...

He's resigning.

It was as if, at the last moment, Sun Qiao, one of the two drivers traveling in opposite directions, couldn't help but move the steering wheel and swerve sharply to the side to avoid the reckless truck that was like a land missile.

The other party has no evidence, has confessed, and has absolutely no way out, yet you still insist on confronting them... that's just plain stupid!

Moreover.

Zhao Gang's interests conflict with the company's interests, but does that mean Sun Qiao's interests align with Zhao Gang's?

joke.

Would anyone find the reputation of causing the client to pay an extra 50 million to sound good?

"Are you here to negotiate?"

Xu De glanced at Sun Qiao from head to toe, and his interest was piqued.

"What are you talking about? Isn't the case already clear?"

"We plead guilty and will compensate Tianhe Pharmaceutical Company in the future. Just wait and see."

Still confessing, still in the realm of the living and the dead...

It's hard to say whether the person in front of you is a beast or a beast in human skin.

Suppressing her anger, Sun Qiao said, "Attorney Xu, the court has adjourned. There are no judges or prosecutors around."

"oh."

Xu De nodded. "So what do you want to talk about?"

"It's naturally about the compensation..." Sun Qiao said.

"I know that the compensation will be paid to Tianhe Pharmaceutical after the judgment..." Xu De said slowly.

Still confessing?

"You beast..."

Sun Qiao almost couldn't hold back, but fortunately she managed to hold it in at the last moment, staring at the other person with a livid face.

Xu De asked suspiciously, "What are you talking about? Attorney Sun, what are you trying to say?"

Sun Qiao remained silent for a long time, then finally took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his anger, and spoke again:

"I said, your approach might not have been quite appropriate."

"Attorney Xu, we believe that the defendant, Mr. Gao Yu, does not actually bear any civil liability in this case."

Sun Qiao tried her best to conduct the discussion in a calm tone.

"Since we bear no responsibility, as lawyers, shouldn't we naturally strive to protect our clients' interests?"

talking.

Fearing the other party might disagree, Sun Qiao quickly added:

"Therefore, the so-called compensation to Tianhe is actually unnecessary."

Xu De's face showed a look of sudden realization.

He glanced at Lin Yue beside him and exclaimed in delight:

"I see!"

Although they were exchanging words, Sun Qiao felt increasingly resentful and couldn't help but want to take action.

But Blue Flower Law Firm has nothing else.

That's what it means to be able to endure!

Before Xu De could speak, Sun Qiao immediately said:

"so......"

"Attorney Xu, we believe that handling this false accusation will have a significant impact on you..."

As he spoke, Sun Qiao gritted his teeth.

"We are willing to register a patent for you and provide three million in damages for defamation."

"Because your drug development was delayed, an additional investment of five million is being made. Furthermore, due to the damage to the pharmaceutical company's reputation, to remedy this..."

"We are willing to cover the medication costs for all the patients involved in the case at the First People's Hospital!"

Xu De agreed to all four conditions he had previously set!

Sun Qiao felt powerless; he had never felt so powerless before.

But the next second...

Sun Qiao then had the strength.

"A five million investment?"

Xu De's face showed surprise, and he was very dissatisfied. He said:

"Too low, this is too low."

"Attorney Sun, Tianhe Pharmaceutical Company caused our client to halt drug development, making it difficult to continue. Therefore, I believe..."

"It should be an investment of 6.5 million!!!"

Sun Qiao: ? ? ?
