Chapter 62: After-Court Contest
"No, no, no......" Ma Ren knew that something was wrong, and he was already frightened, and he was eager to seize the opportunity to say all the points that had been explained in advance, "But the magistrate, I ask that Ma Shouhua himself be summoned to appear in court and inspect the tethered horse post together in the presence of everyone." ”
Ye Jishi seems to have been prepared for this, and repeatedly implored the president to accept this appeal: "Ma Shouhua has disappeared from public view for four years, and life in exile has changed a person's appearance very dramatically. There is too much room for manipulation in the indirect way of identity verification! I believe that the goal of fairness should be achieved through the form of disclosure. ”
Li Fengzhu didn't dare to blink when he heard this, and soon got some new inspiration from Ye Jishi's words. Ma Ren's behind-the-scenes envoy is probably ready to lose the lawsuit. Since it was a prank, it was natural to ignore the result. So, what exactly do they want?
What Ji Bingzhi said about mental torture is completely correct, but is this the only way? I'm afraid not!
The trial did not really enter the topic until Ma Shouhua was publicly summoned. The ruthlessness of the Japanese aggressors does not lie in using all means to force the opponent to submit, nor does it mean that they will kill people at every turn. They are ruthlessly vowing to destroy every anti-Japanese person!
If Ma Shouhua can't be killed, he will continue to torture him all the time, and this torture is not a retreat to the failure of the assassination, but a more elaborate plan. When Ma Shouhua became notorious, when his normal communication was torn apart, when he was about to be cornered, and then induced him into the public eye with conspiracy, he would eventually be killed. Even if his fragile nerves were no longer able to support him back on the battlefield, he still had to die. From the standpoint of the Japanese, who dared to defy the emperor ?!
Ji Bingzhi was also stunned at this moment, she looked at Yu Xunruo who was in a cold sweat, and her eyes were full of consternation. It seems that Ye Jishi's idea is that as long as Ma Shouhua can be deceived, then it doesn't matter whether Ma Ren's means are too scoundrel to achieve his goal, and whether he will cause everyone's resentment.
However, in this silent battlefield, only Ji Bingzhi has the ability to turn the tide. She told herself over and over again that she had to keep a calm mind. She looked down and thought for a moment, and the time that passed by forced her to get up immediately and respond appropriately.
"Ladies and gentlemen......" Ji Bingzhi trembled in fear, took a deep breath, and stated with red eyes and pressure, "My client is neither an ordinary person nor a privileged class today, but a world-famous anti-Japanese hero. But now he is frustrated in the political and military circles, and the goal is big and there is no meticulous protection. Jinmen is a place where Chinese and foreign places are mixed and fish and dragons are mixed, and it may be inconvenient to appear in public at this time. If there were any unexpected catastrophe to clarify the case, the consequences would be unimaginable. Considering the potential safety hazards of our client, I do not consider it appropriate to adopt the defendant's suggestion of public inspection. I implore the President to consider it carefully!"
Ma Ren used his old plan as usual, and made a mess in court: "Then what if, what if you get a fake Ma Shouhua to deal with it?" I'm just a farmer, I don't have money or power, I don't understand the ......twists and turns of your city people, and I don't understand the twists and turns of your city people."
"Please respect the defendant!" the presiding judge reluctantly hammered the gavel repeatedly.
Ye Jishi understands that his reckless strategy may cause some waves in the press gallery, and as far as the trial is concerned, it will do more harm than good. Therefore, Ma Ren was instructed to stop this sprinkling behavior.
Looking at Ji Bingzhi, who had already put the necessary pressure on the court, she stood on the side with a good chance of winning, and her expression became more and more panicked. thought that the Japanese assassination would not succeed, so they tortured Ma Shouhua by attacking reputation. However, Maren's assertion reveals that the Japanese never gave up on assassination. Compared with this terrible message, how could she have the heart to rejoice in the overwhelming superiority in court?
After some deliberation, the presiding judge got up, knocked down the gavel and said: "I announce that I hereby schedule to go to the Ma Mansion on the 20th of this month for a small-scale public inspection, and at that time, we will invite representatives of qualified newspapers in Tianjin to go together. ”

After the presiding judge announced the adjournment of the trial again, it was time for the reporters to rush to the battlefield.
Everyone waited on the passage and discussed the case extensively: "Ji Bingzhi is really powerful. Let's talk about the clothes, although I think it's strange, but if I really want to ask, I can't do her kind of strategy. Listening to their arguments, it is really a 'good deed' full of loopholes. Since Ma Ren's robe is from Lawyer Ye's good deeds, why should he hide it?"
Fang Xiaorou pursed her lips and actively participated: "In fact, the gap between people is very large. Some people wish the whole world knew about a small favor, while some people are silent in love and great kindness. ”
Someone interjected puzzledly: "But before the trial, Ye Jishi's employees were still promoting their firm's active participation in legal aid!"
"Giving people the awareness that they can take up legal weapons when they are oppressed can't be done by non-media propaganda. Therefore, it is a high-profile charity that must be exceptional. Fang Xiaorou naturally stood in the center of the crowd, with the momentum of an opinion leader, "I think there is no conflict between the two." ”
Li Fengzhu leaned against the corner of the wall without saying a word, on the surface it seemed that he was resting, but in fact, there was a long-standing thought in his mind that had been circling. In order to keep a close eye on the case of abandoning relatives, the Daily News Agency changed the direction of running the newspaper that "local news does not leave the Japanese concession", but from the inertia of physics, there is a contradiction here. In the past, if news outside the Japanese concession was not reported, the audience would inevitably be limited, which in turn led to low sales and low reputation. Judging by normal business logic, without drastic reforms, it will not be possible to change the new look, and it will be difficult to break through the inherent audience without a new look; and it is still difficult to stimulate sales in the short term if there is no timely and vigorous publicity without a new look.
However, the sudden rise of the Daily News Agency completely skipped the period of development and went straight to prosperity. The root issues involved here are how to open up sales channels and how to leap forward in printing capacity.
The peers around me are still debating enthusiastically: "I think that the conflict is not the coat last time, but the half-worn clothes of today." When the disciplinary officer presented the report, neither Ma Ren nor Lawyer Ye denied the statement that the line was all handled by Lawyer Ye. Lawyer Ye's assets are self-evident, and he also takes the initiative to promote the fact that he has a good heart. If you have a strong heart, why do you want to give someone a half-worn garment?"
"Then I want to ......" Fang Xiaorou took a breath, and the two curved willow eyebrows squeezed hard to the center of the eyebrows, "It must be because life is not easy, and when the poor encounter a little difficulty, it is easy to build up debts." Maybe Mr. Ma was in a crisis, so he had to take his clothes and change them into clean old clothes to save the emergency. If this is the case, it has become a strange phenomenon for lawyer Ye to give away old clothes from the source, but in fact, it is necessary to talk about the twists and turns of replacing new clothes with old clothes, which can be regarded as a complete truth. ”
"It's entirely possible. Li Fengzhu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, disrupting everyone's focus. She followed Fang Xiaorou's train of thought, and raised her eyes to hint, "But this kind of difficulty should happen very urgently, because there are only three days between the two court sessions. ”
The eyes of the two fought violently, and a third person stood up to speak: "I asked this question at the end of the last trial, and Ye Jishi replied to me that he not only made clothes for Ma Ren, but also funded his daily life. ”
Everyone chimed in: "Then there is no need to be responsible, right?"
Li Fengzhu smiled without saying a word, and Fang Xiaorou, who was about to be defeated, gritted her teeth: "Actually, which clothes to wear is his personal human right!
Suddenly, a hurried shout broke the calm of the confrontation: "Hurry up...... Hurry up, they went to the back door. ”
Following the prestige, I saw a young man tying his belt indiscriminately with one hand and waving at the reporters with the other. This turned out to be an enthusiastic reporter who came out of the bathroom and found that the parties and the lawyer were trying to slip away from the camera, so he hurried over to inform the large army to move quickly.
This sudden chase is always brutal, and not every newspaper reporter has the grace to play fair. The more people from the tabloids, the more bad they were, and when they flew out, they deliberately scattered a pile of useless manuscript paper behind them to interfere with the actions of others. There are also those who run all the way and raise their hands and pull all the way, and even more simply stumble forward with their feet sideways. In the face of such a situation, to praise journalists as a profession with the ability to lead noble trends of thought will inevitably make some journalists with lofty ambitions feel ashamed.
Li Fengzhu, who has experienced a hundred battles, is familiar with this, and has already developed an instinct when encountering unexpected situations, and instinctively runs forward silently against the wall. The middle of the road is the most spacious, which is a matter of common sense, and because everyone has common sense, the avenue is the most likely to be blocked, and even triggers a sweeping sweep. If you keep a low profile, it will be easier to break out of the cracks.

said that Ji Bingzhi, who had a solemn face, came out of the president's office and went two separate ways with Yu Xunruo. After a brief exchange, Yu Xunruo both welcomed and hesitated about the decision to make the inspection public. It is welcome that in front of the cameras of the newspapers, the case can finally be completely closed, and it is hesitant to see who will check the reliability of the various staff members involved in the inspection. However, once the court has decided, it is difficult to take it back. He was planning to return to the Ma Mansion as soon as possible to thoroughly study the matter.
Ji Bingzhi was responsible for making a little noise to lure these reporters away, and this was the shouting of the reporter just now.
As planned, she turned to some reliable friends on the ground of Jinmen and found her a small car, which would be parked at the back door and waiting for her. As long as she runs fast enough, she can ride out the door. But things often don't go according to plan, what she didn't expect was that before she could step down the steps, she was blocked by a tall middle-aged man: "Hey, hey!
