Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

Chapter 98 Huang Shi: How come you still have evidence!?

An echo came from the speaker.

"Regarding this matter...I personally respect the litigation opinion of the agent."

"hug..

""

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei quickly snatched the phone and said urgently, "Ms. He, this is Zhang Wei!"

"Our clients are showing great sincerity in their understanding; they are willing to bear extremely high costs associated with this settlement!"

"As you know, criminal cases cannot be handled impulsively, and family members cannot be blinded by hatred!"

"Yang Huan is still young, he's only 14 years old this year. He's blinded by anger and impulsively sought revenge without asking for compensation. What will he do in the future?"

"Think about it carefully. Yang Huan won't have anyone to support him in the future. Schooling, work, marriage... all of these cost money!"

He was not arguing unreasonably.

In fact, this was the reason why He Miao initially leaned towards forgiveness.

Without family and without compensation, Yang Huan's path is several times harder than that of ordinary orphans, just like, or even worse than, that of a typical orphan.

Therefore, having compensation means that the other party's personal life can be more forgiving.

It's just a pity...

I'm sorry.

"Attorney Zhang, ten minutes ago, our civil lawyers reached an agreement with the victim's family."

He Miao replied, "They..."

'

"No form of leniency will be accepted before the trial begins."

The words were spoken.

He Miao then stopped talking and hung up the phone.

In the huge conference room, only a beeping sound echoed back and forth.

In a daze.

Time seemed to stand still in the conference room; no one moved, as if they had been turned into statues.

Ten minutes ago, the plaintiff's lawyer and Yang Huan reached a consensus.

No form of forgiveness will be accepted before the court hearing...

These words echoed in everyone's minds like needles.

It was obvious that the lawyer had anticipated the defendant's actions and knew they would seek leniency, just as the opposing side knew the defendant would plead guilty during the afternoon court hearing.

In an instant.

Zhang Wei's eyes became bloodshot.

His face was grim, his teeth were clenched, and his expression gradually became ferocious. He suddenly slammed the things on the table to the ground.

"Beast, beast!!!"

"Director, aren't we just pushing them to the brink of desperation?"

"Heh, then he'd better be able to jump over it."

5:15.

Inside the Houde Law Firm, Torch Street, Green Forest City.

Dusk is approaching.

Golden light shone into the law firm.

The law firm was quiet and deserted, in the main reception area.

Xu De, who had just finished speaking with his state guardian He Miao, sat on the sofa with a faint smile on his face.

Yes.

He had already anticipated what Zhang Wei would do!

This isn't something that's hard to guess.

First, the defendant has already pleaded guilty, which is a legally established fact. Even if the other party insists on denying guilt, it will be useless unless objective and irrefutable evidence can be found, but clearly, this case does not have such evidence.

Otherwise, there's only one path left: to go all the way down.

That means a reduced sentence!

Sentence reduction relies on only two things: "forgiveness" and the law.

Legally, the opposing party is attacking the "Juvenile Protection Act," but after Sun Miaohua exposed this law, it is clear that the possibility of a reduced sentence has been completely lost.

After all, legal sentence reductions are nothing more than "special circumstances" plus "age".

Liu Jingqi committed murder purely out of subjective malice, with no special circumstances, and her age was also rejected, so the legal remedy of sentence reduction is not an option.

The rest...

"All that's left is the letter of understanding!"

"As long as there's a letter of understanding, Liu Jingqi will definitely not be executed immediately; at worst, she'll only receive a suspended death sentence!"

Xu De spoke slowly.

Although there is only one word difference between a suspended death sentence and a death sentence.

But in reality, the difference is like heaven and earth; a suspended death sentence can even be served at the same table as a life sentence!

A suspended death sentence is theoretically a fixed-term imprisonment sentence that requires caution and avoiding further offenses. Liu Jingqi is young, and the prison may grant her leniency if her sentence is reduced.

His death sentence was reduced to life imprisonment, then life imprisonment was reduced to a fixed term, and he was eventually estimated to be able to get out in about twenty years.

She survived, but what about Yang Jiale and Zhao Li?

Two vibrant lives, struggling to make a living just two months ago, have ended up like this.

even..

After Liu Jingqi was released from prison, she did not need to worry about work or life.

The law will not completely deprive the other party of their inheritance rights to Liu Yong and Cai Fei, and since the two are infertile, the inheritance will eventually belong to Liu Jingqi!

"I don't know what God was thinking."

"We'll always bail out this kind of beast."

Xu De sat on the sofa in the main hall of the law firm, his face showing some emotion.

Liu Jingqi is lucky.

The other party caused the three-year-old boy to go missing in Lianshan County...most likely dead, but he managed to run away on his own.

After escaping, the human traffickers sold the children to welfare homes instead of beggars, thieves, or perverts.

The orphanage even gave it to Liu Yong and Cai Fei, a wealthy couple who were unable to have children, for adoption!

Even if she is sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve, the most difficult thing to deal with after being released from prison is "integrating into modern society." She doesn't need to worry about finding a job because Liu Yong will leave her a large sum of money.

Overall, this person seems to be God's favorite.

You're blessed with good fortune!

but..

"I don't believe in fate."

Xu De smiled as he looked at the various pieces of evidence he had prepared in advance.

He doesn't believe in fate, he only believes in himself.

"Okay, you guys can go home now."

"We've done this to the court... and the other party will most likely expedite the identification process through the judicial system."

"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the case will reopen within three days."

For the average person, a paternity test report may take up to 6 days to obtain.

But if the court is in a hurry enough... expedited judicial processing can actually get results in just one day!

In later times, because the technology is mature enough, it may not even take a day to use, and the appraisal report can be obtained on the same day.

The so-called three days is actually a very conservative estimate.

It is mainly used by the court for evidence collection and authentication, as well as for the adjudication committee to discuss sentencing in cases.

so..

"Go back and rest. I'll contact you if anything comes up."

Xu De began to speak.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yue and Wang Chao breathed a sigh of relief, their eyes showing signs of exhaustion.

Although their roles in the court proceedings were all supportive, it was actually quite tiring... Xu De's complete lack of reaction was simply because he was an iron man, as if his muscles never tired!

"Then I'll be going now."

Wang Chao stood up, yawned, and then walked outside.

"Squeak~"

The law firm's main entrance was pushed open.

Wang Chao had just stepped out to leave when, in a daze, he stopped in his tracks.

All I saw was...

Outside the law firm, a large group of people were walking towards it, clearly targeting the firm!

Some of these people were wearing police uniforms, others were wearing black suits with red ties, and their identities...

Police? Prosecutors?

Wang Chao was startled. He looked closely and saw that the person in the lead was none other than Prosecutor Huang Shi.

At this moment, the other party's expression was clearly rather unpleasant, and he led a group of people toward them.

really.

Just as the director had predicted, the prosecutor was so anxious that he didn't even leave work and came directly to the law firm to collect evidence.

Wang Chao looked at the group of people, touched his chin, and thought to himself.

The case was in such a hurry that Xu De insisted on adjourning the court hearing, which should have been decided immediately.

"This unexpected pace clearly does not conform to the prosecutor's office's procedures," so it's impossible not to be anxious.

"They've come with ill intentions."

Wang Chao spoke thoughtfully.

Huang Shi and his group soon approached the law firm. When they passed Wang Chao, they only glanced at him before turning their attention away and entering the firm.

He was about to push the door open.

Almost instinctively, Wang Chao blurted out, "!"

"Knock on the door! You just barged in without knocking?"

At the main entrance.

Huang Shi, who was originally going to push the door open and give Xu De some trouble, suddenly stumbled.

He straightened up, turned to look at Wang Chao, clearly holding his breath, and after a moment of hesitation, said, "I'm a prosecutor!"

Xu De practically treats them like dogs... Now they have to knock before entering a law firm? Doesn't that make them seem too honest?!

"What's wrong with the prosecutor?"

"You're not clients of the law firm. Clients don't need to knock on the door, but you're here to see Attorney Xu, so you're considered clients and you need his help."

Wang Chao retorted, stating matter-of-factly, "Do you think it's right for a guest who needs a favor to walk in without knocking?!"

So particular?

Among the crowd, several police officers looked surprised and didn't know what to say.

Huang Shi struggled for a long time without being able to refute Wang Chao's words, clearly indicating that Wang Chao's words had touched a nerve.

He raised his hand and pointed it sharply at the other person, then turned his head and pounded hard on the door with his index finger.

"Bang bang bang!"

A sound rang out.

Inside the waiting area.

Xu De, who had been bracing himself for a storm, suddenly raised an eyebrow and said, "Go in."

The words were spoken.

The main gate was pushed open.

Huang Shi and his men swarmed in.

It really was a prosecutor knocking on the door!

Xu De was slightly surprised, then immediately exclaimed, "As expected of a prosecutor from the Municipal Procuratorate, you are indeed very polite!"

To be honest, the prosecutor treated them like fools, launching two surprise court hearings and presenting countless pieces of evidence, yet not revealing a single one to the prosecutor.

In this situation, the other party is actually knocking on the door first to settle scores...

That's incredibly polite!

Huang Shi's gaze grew increasingly dangerous. He didn't speak, but narrowed his eyes, staring at him with hostility before slowly approaching.

Xu De was startled, but outwardly remained calm as he stood up and stepped back.

"Prosecutor Huang, what are you trying to do?"

Huang Shi stepped forward. "Don't move. Let me check if you were injured while you were out collecting evidence for 2,000 kilometers."

Xu De remained expressionless, standing behind the sofa.

"I don't think it's necessary..."

'

Don't move?

Only a fool wouldn't move!

Prosecutors are human too, and human beings have emotions.

If it were someone else in Huangshi's shoes, being scammed twice like this, they'd be lucky not to curse him out.

"hehe."

Huang Shi sneered, his eyes filled with hostility, ready to seize the other party at any moment.

This thing...

This is a total rip-off! They have absolutely no credibility whatsoever!

When we met at the medical university a couple of days ago, the other person said something like, "I'm going to visit a friend..." But then, in court, they pulled out an anonymous test result.

Foolish...I was so foolish. I only knew he would hold onto the evidence against Lü Guangjun and not present it.

"But I didn't investigate the testing agency thoroughly, thinking they wouldn't lie again..."

Huang Shi murmured to himself, like a broken record.

For him, procedures are extremely important. Many people may dislike this, but in reality, if you don't follow the procedures, there will be big problems, and wrongful convictions will increase exponentially.

Only because Xu De provided solid evidence, otherwise others would have really gotten angry.

"Alright."

In a daze, Huang Shi took a deep breath and suppressed the surging emotions in his heart.

Time was short; he didn't even have time to rest after get off work, so naturally he wouldn't cause any trouble with Xu De.

He immediately held out his hand and asked, "Where's the evidence?"

"Where are the witnesses?"

Evidence with legal effect must be prepared by the prosecutor, and of course, the court will also examine it, so it's a two-pronged approach.

Huang Shi was just as dedicated to the case as Xu De.

He was simply limited by his position and procedures, so he naturally seized the opportunity now that it was available.

"There."

Xu De pointed behind the other person.

Huang Shi turned around and saw a pile of documents neatly arranged on the table. His eyes twitched immediately.

have to.

Did the other party anticipate that they might get beaten up, and therefore prepare all the evidence beforehand?

Prosecutor Wang Mang stepped forward to inspect the documents.

He immediately looked at the information above, his emotions became extremely excited, and he nodded to Huang Shi.

As long as this evidence is stamped with a legally binding seal...

He never imagined he would lose this case!

Huang Shi looked away.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at Xu De again, his eyes wary, and asked, "What about the others?"

Xu De was taken aback. "What other things?"

"I'll mention other evidence."

Huang Shi spoke, his gaze sweeping over the other person.

He felt that the other party must be hiding something else!

"I'm gone."

Xu De's lips twitched.

Huang Shi scoffed. From this moment on, the other party's credibility in his eyes was a negative number.

Are you sure?

He circled Xu De twice, as if he were looking at a rare treasure.

if you can....

Perhaps he wanted to lift Xu De up, shake him, and see if he could uncover any evidence.

Xu De felt extremely uncomfortable under their gaze.

"It's really gone, Prosecutor Huang, you have to believe me."

Huang Shi remained silent, standing still as if trying to discern the truth of the statement, lost in thought.

Speaking of which...

At this point, there's really no need to hide any evidence.

If the other party still has... there's no reason to let them get through the second trial.

The best course of action is to go all in and crush Liu Jingqi; otherwise, a surprise attack during the third court hearing could easily lead to three recesses.

In summary..

Huang Shi felt that the other party probably didn't have much evidence left, and that pressing them like this would only make him feel ashamed.

"Actually, it's not that there isn't any at all."

Xu De was so uncomfortable being stared at that he suddenly spoke up and said in a low voice.

In an instant.

Huang Shi paused, slowly raised his head, and silently looked at the other person.

Xu De then said, "But it's just a small piece of evidence... The main thing is that it needs to be used in conjunction with a paternity test."

"Before confirming that Zhang Yueyue is Liu Jingqi, it would be pointless to use it, so I kept it, thinking that I would wait until you finished the cross-examination and the court hearing."

"I'll use it if the situation is a bit bad... for example, if the other party might only get a twenty-year sentence."

"But I didn't expect..."

""

talking.

Xu De scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Haha, I didn't expect Prosecutor Huang to have such sharp eyes."

Yellowstone:

Huang Shi opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word. After a long while...

He simply couldn't maintain his composure any longer, and immediately looked at him with eyes full of shock, uttering a question from the depths of his soul.

Seeing his expression, I was momentarily stunned.

Xu De was stunned.

Xu De: ?

"you do not know!?"

"You actually have one!?"
