Who Made Him a Lawyer?-Chapter 169 - 144: Breakthrough in the Case! 1987! [4,000-Word Mega - !]
Explanation?
Explain what?
Isn't this just a blatant slander by the other party!?
Director Zhou felt wronged for the first time.
He was used to fabricating evidence and acting as a litigious lawyer, causing discomfort for the opposing party. He never imagined this situation would one day occur against him...
But there's no way around it.
Facing the doubts from everyone, Director Zhou could only brace himself and stand up.
He took a deep breath and said in a solemn voice:
"The opposing lawyer is spreading rumors, attempting to smear my character!"
"This card was not given to the opposing lawyer, nor is it related to the court hearing."
As he spoke.
Director Zhou had already thought of how to explain this.
"It was given to someone named Su Yu!"
"On the evening of December 6th, Su Yu stayed at the Jinjiang Hotel. She is the only innocent party in this case, aside from the deceased and our client."
"Because the hotel values its reputation, they decided to compensate Miss Su Yu."
Director Zhou explained slowly.
"It's just a coincidence that Su Yu happens to be a subordinate of the opposing lawyer!"
"And since I work for the Duan Group's legal department, it's naturally my responsibility to handle this obligation."
As his voice trailed off.
The source of the card, at least, had a rough explanation.
However...
"Sorry to interrupt the opposing lawyer's words, but it's necessary."
"This card contains five hundred thousand, which far exceeds the scope of reasonable compensation, and the card was delivered on the 13th, while the hotel's compensation policy was only added on the 12th!"
Xu Liang disregarded the courtroom protocol and directly interrupted the opposing party.
"Lawyer Zhou attempted to use this as a pretext for bribery, to have Su Yu whisper sweet nothings in my ear!"
"But it was promptly refused by me!"
Zhao Yi, after hearing this, felt there was something questionable.
"Did the plaintiff refuse this amount face-to-face?"
No matter how you spin it, the money ended up with Xu Liang.
Thus, there is a suspicion of a conflict of interest, potentially indicating involvement in false testimony.
"I did refuse, but Lawyer Zhou did not give up at the time."
Xu Liang said without any psychological burden:
"But then, Lawyer Zhou threw the card in my face and ran!"
"I couldn't catch up at all, so the card remained with me, but I had reported this to the police in advance."
That's bullshit!
The one who got hit with the card was clearly me!
Director Zhou was furious, flames simmering in his eyes, as if he wanted to burn Xu Liang to ashes.
This shameless bastard, spreading lies in court...
"I can take criminal responsibility for what I've said!"
Xu Liang said calmly.
Zhao Yi looked worried.
Responsible? What kind of responsibility!
The card's origin was indeed from the Duan Group, and the money was indeed a lot.
But no one can prove the reason for giving the card.
If said in court, that means forcefully pulling down Director Zhou's pants and shoving a clod of yellow mud in, leaving him speechless, whether it's shit or not, it's still shit!
Finally.
Xu Liang solemnly said:
"I apply to dismiss the evidence submitted by the opposing lawyer."
"I request the plaintiff's lawyer be expelled from the court!" Director Zhou retaliated.
Zhao Yi: ...
How can this trial continue...
He looked around at the people on both sides.
Then glanced at the self-doubting witness on the witness stand, and the astonished and serious faces in the audience.
Finally...
Zhao Yi took a deep breath and said solemnly:
"This court session... is now adjourned!"
"The court will go into recess, and everyone present, please leave in an orderly manner."
With that said.
Zhao Yi stood up and, along with the other judges, left the courtroom unsteadily.
He now felt dizzy, as if his head was a tangled mess, and his mind was heavy.
Re... recess?
Everyone was stunned.
Then they clicked their tongues in surprise, making no further comments.
The defendant produces an alibi, simultaneously accusing the opposing lawyer of spreading rumors.
The plaintiff provides evidence of bribery from the opposing party, suggesting fabrication of false evidence...
The case has reached this point; if the court doesn't recess, the dispute might escalate beyond control!
"All parties, please exit in order."
Several bailiffs came out to awaken the courtroom participants.
Upon hearing this.
The defendant's side, Director Zhou, snapped back to reality and glared fiercely at the plaintiff, Xu Liang.
Then he left with a furious expression.
He didn't have time to waste on Xu Liang.
He needed to quickly solidify the so-called 'alibi evidence'!
Now that Xu Liang had discredited him, the court wouldn't just listen; they would surely conduct a thorough investigation of the evidence!
That's right.
Court verification of evidence is also prioritized by urgency.
As long as the evidence appears fine on the surface, no one would dig deeper willingly.
But, if there is a suspicion of false evidence during a court session...
The investigation of the evidence becomes extremely stringent!!!
The false evidence that Director Zhou fabricated might not be found in a normal review, but it can't withstand meticulous scrutiny!
He must go back to remedy this oversight...
Watching him leave.
"How arrogant, he actually dared to fabricate false evidence!"
Yang Ruoxi suddenly spoke with disdain.
Upon hearing this, Xu Liang glanced around and chuckled:
"What about me?"
Yang Ruoxi paused, then changed her expression.
"You're different; you just revealed his real intention of giving money. You didn't lie!"
"You have potential."
Xu Liang looked at her with contentment.
She had been following him for so long, finally showing some progress!
However...
Yang Ruoxi suddenly looked hesitant, gazing at Xu Liang with words unspoken, she finally said:
"By the way... why didn't we submit the surveillance footage directly?"
Xu Liang smiled, lifting his head to look in the direction where Director Zhou departed.
"What do you think would happen if we submitted the truth before the court session?"
Yang Ruoxi fell into deep thought.
If they submitted it before the trial, Duan Feipeng would be arrested, but only arrested.
