Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

Chapter 96 announces: We'll beat anyone we see! [Bonus Chapter]

"Your Honor, there are reasons why we presented evidence in court, and it's like this..."

""

"In this case, our investigation into the defendant Liu Jingqi only began after the first court hearing on December 17th."

"In the judicial system, the difficulty of investigating cases of human trafficking and disappearance is well-known, so it took a little longer..."

'

"Fortunately, we were still able to make contact with witness Sun Miaohua on the 23rd."

"However, in order to ensure the rigor of the legal process and the credibility of the evidence, we did not rush to present evidence, but instead conducted a private verification first."

In the trial area.

Xu De spoke slowly, his tone full of sincerity and purity.

Facing the questioning gazes of the crowd, he said, "So, on December 27th, just six hours before the court hearing, I finally obtained this evidence."

"That is, the one you have in your hand, Your Honor."

"It is clear that we have missed the period for presenting evidence and have no time to do so, therefore..."

"We had no choice but to provide evidence on short notice!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone suddenly realized what he meant.

In other words...

Was Xu De forced into a surprise attack?

So, surprise court hearings can be forced...

No, don't you laugh at yourself for saying that?!

In the dock.

Lawyer Zhang Wei's forehead veins bulged, his hands were clenched tightly, his forearm muscles were tense, and his ashen face resembled an ancient bronze mask. He gritted his teeth and made a squeaking sound.

Shameless...

Shameless!

Where did they get the audacity to say such things?!

Putting everything else aside, even if you beat Zhang Wei to death, he would never believe that the other party could come up with a plan to make him confess on the spot and then produce evidence to convict him...

It was definitely premeditated!

"Your Honor, this is clearly a premeditated attack on our evidence!"

Zhang Wei couldn't hold back any longer; he was so angry that his mouth was trembling and he was panting heavily.

"The agent has been illegally collecting evidence and conducting infringing tests from beginning to end; he is clearly disregarding court order!!!"

On the judge's bench.

The three judges were already deep in thought when they heard the commotion. Zhao Xing's face immediately darkened, and he angrily shouted, "Defendant, please observe court discipline!"

"If this happens again, I have the right to expel you from the courtroom!"

The words were spoken.

Even though Zhang Wei was extremely unwilling, he could only swallow his anger and keep quiet.

at this time.

On the judge's bench.

Zhang Bingxin, Zhao Xing, and Lu Guowei all looked worried.

The three of them were clearly engaged in a brainstorming session.

to be frank.

Initially, they thought the second trial of the case would conclude.

After all, the case was indeed too simple, the facts were clear, especially the testimony of Lü Guangjun provided by Xu De during the first evidence raid.

To be honest, if Lü Guangjun hadn't been unable to stand trial at the time...

Otherwise, it would be fine to close the courtroom after the first trial and sentencing, it would just seem less rigorous.

Therefore, a verdict can be delivered at the second hearing.

Can..

But then, out of nowhere, Cheng Yaojin appeared!

What do you mean that the agent only took 11 days to bring the defendant's biological mother to court to accuse the defendant of having an age problem?

What do you mean they even have time to do a biological test in advance?!

What do you mean, "again and again"? The reasons given by the other party make it impossible for you to even issue a warning or scold them!?

In a daze.

The three judges stared at the date "December 27th" in the lower right corner of the report, which was the date the test report was issued, and fell silent.

"Anonymous testing at a medical university?"

"Yes, the testing agency at Green Forest Medical University, the court previously commissioned them..."

'

Lu Guowei felt like he couldn't breathe properly.

He has served as a judge for decades, rising from a regular judge in the Basic Court to a senior judge in the Intermediate Court, and now he can even serve as a presiding judge.

What kind of troublesome and stressful cases hasn't he handled?

but..

This case truly left him with mixed feelings. On one hand, he felt exhausted and powerless, and on the other hand, he was filled with anger. However, when he heard the reasoning of his agent, he was powerless to do anything about it and could only stare helplessly.

The most crucial thing is...

"Anonymous testing without legal effect?"

"There wasn't even a stamp..."

""

As Zhao Xing looked at the test report, his veins throbbed, and his hands, hidden under his judge's robe, clenched tightly.

"No, if you have evidence, pick out the good stuff, the legally binding evidence!"

Listen to him rebuking in a low voice.

Zhang Bingxin sighed, looking as if he had aged ten years. He shook his head and said nothing.

Does it have legal effect?

If there were such a thing, would Xu De be unwilling to give it to him?

The problem is that he doesn't have it; he can't give it to him.

Zhang Bingxin saw things very clearly.

If evidence is presented in advance, the court and the procuratorate will have to contact the police and ask them to send people to Lianshan County, 2,000 kilometers away, to conduct cross-provincial cooperation and conduct an initial investigation.

The police then tried to catch the human traffickers, but failed, so they went to the welfare home.

The evidence chain was completed by identifying the human traffickers' physical appearance at the welfare home, then finding their identity information in Lianshan County, and finally, forcibly conducting a forensic examination based on multiple points of doubt.

In addition, staff need to take leave during the Chinese New Year.

With all this going on, the case will be scheduled for at least March of next year.

And Xu De's current actions....

Bring up the invalid premise and force the court to conduct cross-examination!

Without court verification, the evidence cannot be refuted and the case cannot be advanced; if the court verifies, the three-month investigation process must be skipped and a legally valid paternity test must be expedited.

The logic is that the identified report has legal effect and does not require special confidentiality.

The doubts raised by Xu De are enough to form irrefutable evidence!

This is... an open conspiracy, a blatant open conspiracy. Once Xu De puts it on the table, no one can stop what follows!

"What should we do?"

Zhao Xing wanted to smoke, but this was clearly not allowed in court.

He immediately looked at Zhang Bingxin with anxiety.

"The committee's intention in this case is to hold a second hearing for sentencing..."

'

The committee set an 18-year sentence.

However, the evidence presented by Xu De... even if he is a minor, the lightest punishment would be the death penalty!

The gap is this big...

"You listen to the committee?" Lu Guowei asked rhetorically.

"The committee is impressive, why don't they come to conduct the trials themselves?!"

to be honest.

Given the current situation, even if the hospital director came, he would have to keep quiet; there's nothing he could do.

They had no doubt that if no verdict was announced now, Xu De would embark on his journey to the second trial in half an hour.

Followed by.

The provincial high court and the Supreme Court would then bring along some comrades known as "supervisory committee members" to conduct a thorough investigation of the intermediate court.

After thinking it through.

The judge's bench fell silent.

The three parties in the trial area were also extremely quiet. No one spoke, only their eyes met with sharp, piercing glances.

Even outside the courtroom.

Everyone held their breath, preparing to catch any movement peeking through the gap.

until...

"Given that key facts in this case remain in dispute and require further investigation!"

"It is hereby announced..."

'

On the judge's bench.

Judge Zhang Bingxin suddenly spoke, his voice abrupt and loud. He emphasized the word "verification," clearly indicating his dissatisfaction with it.

The sound seemed to resonate at the tip of everyone's sword, startling them awake.

The next second, two words appeared.

"Court adjourned!!!"

"Presiding Judge Zhang Bingxin said through gritted teeth."

After saying that, he stood up, stretched out his hand, pointed his right index finger at Xu De in the agent's seat, and glared at him.

Then, he angrily turned and left.

He truly didn't want to see this person for even a second longer!

"The court date is yet to be determined!"

And as his voice faded...

The entire courtroom.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The clerk and bailiffs packed up their things and prepared to leave. Several bailiffs first took away the witnesses.

"All done."

In the agent's seat.

Xu De's face showed a relaxed smile.

Wang Chao and Lin Yue on the side also breathed a sigh of relief. However, Lin Yue said with some surprise, "Your fighting style... to be honest, it's really easy for you to get beaten up."

The other party was clearly dancing on a tightrope, with a bottomless abyss below, the bottom of which was full of blades.

One wrong step and you'll fall and die...

"At least, this is the first time I've ever seen a judge point at someone in public before leaving!"

Lin Yue shook her head, speaking with lingering fear.

Two surprise court hearings in one day nearly drove the judge crazy, yet he couldn't find a way to retaliate... Lin Yue put herself in his shoes and instantly felt a surge of frustration.

"hehe."

"That was a reasonable and legitimate reason, and the timeline on the paternity test can prove it to me."

Xu De, however, didn't seem to care at all.

He can still distinguish between being targeted and losing a case.

only..

"Sir, are we really not leaving?"

Wang Chao, who was standing to one side, suddenly seemed to be deep in thought, and stroked his chin as he spoke.

He turned his head, looked at the prosecutor on the side and the defendants, and kindly reminded them, "Attorney Xu, your approach is dragging us all down with you. You've implicated everyone. The judge has left, but some people are still here."

Xu De paused, subconsciously looked up, and followed the other person's gaze.

Beside him.

They were the three prosecutors in the prosecution seat.

Huang Shi gritted his teeth and glared at Xu De. He was in a bad mood, his heart filled with turmoil.

He had considered that Xu De might not be so rule-abiding.

But I really never imagined that they could be so unruly. Is this arrogance? No, this is downright outrageous!

Forcing the prosecution to conduct an impromptu cross-examination, just like now, means they'll be scrambling to deal with a mountain of newly presented evidence after the court adjourns...

As for the defendant's seat...

The defendant's dock is different from Huangshi's; their emotions are much purer.

Pure hatred, a hatred that seeps into your teeth!

"Click-clack~!"

Zhang Wei stared at Xu De with eyes full of hatred and rage, his hands clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white and his joints cracked.

"You beast...you beast!"

Seeing this scene.

Xu De's expression changed, and he quickly grabbed his bag and stood up.

"Walk."

As soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly left, with Lin Yue and Wang Chao following closely behind.

As Wang Chao said.

This style of play is so satisfying; you can get whatever you want as easily as taking something out of a bag.

But... the problem is, Xu De is taking from someone else's bowl... He wants judicial validity, so he launches a surprise evidence raid, forcing the court to conduct mandatory testing; he wants cross-examination, so he brings in the prosecutor; he wants sentencing, so he first makes the defendant plead guilty...

It's hard not to be hated!

Just take Zhang Wei and Sun Bing for example. Xu De has no doubt that if he stays any longer, they will invite him to a 1v1 octagon match in court.

This is no joke. So-called social elites are also human beings, and as long as they are human, they have emotions.

It doesn't matter if you are a senior executive or the CEO of a company worth hundreds of billions.

When emotions run high, it's not uncommon for them to arrange a fight!

and so.

In the blink of an eye, the agent's seat vanished without a trace.

By the time the others came to their senses, the other person had already disappeared.

"Team leader, the agent has run away!"

Zhang Qing snapped out of his daze and quickly spoke, his expression somewhat aggrieved.

The other party tricked Huangshi, and also tricked himself. Of course, the key point is that he still needs to find him to understand the case.

That's right. Even though he hated Xu De to the core, he still had to communicate with Xu De and have him cross-examine the evidence with the court at the same time, so that the case could be sealed.

"What should we do?"

Zhang Qing asked anxiously, "Should we chase after them?"

Huang Shi shook his head, feeling a little dizzy.

He was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Go after him. If you can't catch up, go to his law firm."

"I remember... he works at Jinmao Law Firm?"

Huang Shi suddenly forgot the other party's firm; his memory was still stuck on Director Han's Jinmao.

Upon hearing this, Prosecutor Wang Mang hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"What's wrong?" Huang Shi asked, puzzled.

"Xu De left Jinmao Law Firm and started his own firm with his two partners."

Wang Mang spoke.

Huang Shi nodded. "That's great. Going solo clearly has a bright future."

"Oh, by the way, what's the name of his law firm? We'll need to get him involved in the investigation later."

Wang Mang said: "Houde Law Firm".

""

Huangshi: ?

"What?"

Huang Shi was slightly taken aback, as if he hadn't heard clearly, and looked at the other person in disbelief.

"What did you say?"

Wang Mang took a deep breath and said, "The law firm founded by Attorney Xu is called Houde Law Firm."

Virtue...

I don't know why.

Huang Shi, who had already tried to calm himself down and suppress his emotions, suddenly felt a surge of blood rushing to his brain.

His blood pressure immediately spiked, and blood rushed to his head.

Houde Law Firm...

'

He gritted his teeth, a smile creeping across his face... a laugh born of anger.

"Great virtue... haha... great virtue..."

"6

Zhang Qing felt a little awkward. "Team leader, when are we going to that... um, law firm?"

"Now!"

Huang Shi took a deep breath, stood up, and said in a low, angry voice, "When we get to Xu De's law firm, beat up whoever we see, don't let a single one get away!"

He had truly never seen such a shameless person... What was the reasoning behind choosing that name?!

"What about the dog?" Zhang Qing raised an eyebrow. "What if there's a guard dog?"

"A dog? What kind of good dog would he need to guard the house?"

Huangshi was very annoyed.

"Even a passing dog gets kicked a couple of times!"

The words were spoken.

The group got up and hurriedly walked outside.

Although it was said in jest, the situation was clearly urgent.

at the same time..

at the same time.

Zhang Bingxin and his two companions walked briskly out of the second courtroom, their faces slightly grim.

They walked through the corridor and stepped onto the stairs.

Not long after.

After turning a few corners, we arrived at the office.

"Squeak!"

The office door opened.

Inside the office.

Upon seeing this, the court clerks, who were still organizing documents, stood up one after another and said, "Judge Zhang."

Zhang Bingxin felt exhausted. He waved his hand as a signal, then immediately said, "Clerk Li, go to the court office and convey the news of convening a high-level court meeting."

"The criminal court...is about to convene a trial committee."

Trial Committee?

Clerk Li was slightly taken aback. The other party... hadn't the review committee meeting just ended not long ago?

The review committee has already given its answer!

Wait... what if something unexpected happened to the other party's case again?

In a daze, Clerk Li was taken aback, but still asked, "Who were you notifying?"

After a moment's thought, Zhang Bingxin decisively announced, "President, Vice Presidents, heads and deputy heads of all courts, and senior full-time committee members, please issue this notice to the entire court!"

Clerk Li's eyes twitched.

What kind of unexpected event would necessitate a meeting between people of these caliber...?

However, he nodded and hurriedly went to do it.

"it is good."
