Chapter 83: The more frustrated you are, the more courageous you are

Ji Bingzhi nodded and said, "My client and I are still quite satisfied with the verdict. General Ma's most urgent demand at the moment is to hope that the court can clarify that the so-called paternity is purely fabricated. As for your idea, we will not continue to consider it until Ma Ren does make such a request. In fact, over the past period of time, in addition to suffering unnecessary troubles, some extremists in society who have no aspirations have also falsely believed rumors and attempted to attack and destroy the Ma Mansion, which has also suffered real economic losses. Therefore, even if we take the initiative to propose economic compensation, it is reasonable. ”

There is a lot of leeway between the lines, and no matter what Ma Shouhua ultimately decides, it will not leave a handle on people. Since the Japanese spies have the idea of being homeless, they must carefully study the weaknesses of these people. Many of them did not have the three tiles above their heads to protect them from the wind and rain, so the trappers became half a family. Ma Ren is an elderly person, and spending six months in prison can also make him suffer and remember the pain. But next time, if you find a young, strong and homeless person to pretend to be an illegitimate child, squat for six months and then make trouble, wouldn't it be even more of a headache?

Therefore, Ji Bingzhi's most desirable outcome is to be fined 500 yuan. Only then can the scoundrels on the ground in Jinmen understand a common sense of the law, and there is a risk of carrying huge debts by going to the scoundrels in plain office, and this kind of deterrence may be greater than being in prison.

At this time, someone shouted, "Borrow, borrow, hurry", and they were about to rush here.

Li Fengzhu was afraid that he would not be able to finish asking, so he hastily wrote down a few strokes, and hurriedly said: "According to me, this old Mr. Ma is a person who dares to make requests. If he had asked for an early release from prison on the grounds of infirmity, and refused to pay a fine instead, he would have ......"

Everyone screamed, and saw a hand coming over from the crack, swishing and grabbing Li Fengzhu, desperately pulling her out of the crowd.

Look at it, it's not Chen Yanping. He knew that Li Fengzhu was surprised and confused at this time, but he didn't have time to explain, so he could only emphasize again and again: "I'm really in a hurry, don't ask yet, it's inconvenient for me to answer you, let's talk in detail when we get to a safe place." ”

When Ji Bingzhi heard some words, he faintly felt worried, and involuntarily leaned forward. However, other newspapers refused to let him go easily, but in the blink of an eye, someone picked up Li Fengzhu's words and asked: "If Ma Ren doesn't lose money, what will General Ma do, will he be remembered for his old age?"

"To be clear, I answer from the assumptions of the journalists. Ji Bingzhi was inevitably misinterpreted in the newspaper in the future, so he first emphasized this sentence before he dared to go on and say, "The most fundamental purpose of our legal work can be boiled down to the four words 'punishing evil and promoting good'. If you can't punish evil, in a sense, you are trampling on good. Therefore, I think that extrajudicial benevolence also has to be talked about. To be kind to good people is to be tolerant of warmth. However, if you tolerate the villains, you will lose the dignity of the law. ”

"The presiding judge just informed both parties that within 10 days of the verdict, if they are not satisfied, they can also appeal to the Jinmen No. 1 Branch of the Provincial High Court. Moreover, Ma Ren did express his dissatisfaction in court, and if he appealed, how would you respond?"

When Ji Bingzhi heard this, he felt very lost in his heart, how could Li Fengzhu take away the height of the interview as soon as he left. This kind of question is not worth wasting time discussing at all, so he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course, it is a response." Subsequently, after whispering to Yu Xunruo, the two said at the same time that they would go back to discuss the next step, and they would no longer be able to answer reporters' questions.

It was easy to break out of the encirclement of reporters, but he bumped into Jia Qianzhong head-on. I saw him step forward and arch his hand, and said, "Discipline Master, Secretary Yu, we have a small request, hoping to represent the academic community and go to the General's Mansion to express condolences." We are also concerned about the inconvenience of General Ma's travel, and in the past few months, many people with bad intentions have come to harass us, for fear that the general will misunderstand the real public opinion. Therefore, we launched an initiative to all colleges and universities, primary and secondary schools in Tianjin, and asked students of all ages to write down their heartfelt words, and send representatives to General Ma after returning to the general office. Then, the picture of the people supporting the heroes was greatly publicized in the newspapers, and the real voice of our people was expressed. ”

Ji Bingzhi immediately humbly said: "I am just a legal representative, and I can't control and shouldn't care about decisions other than legal affairs." ”

Yu Xunruo thought secretly for a while, and said in a deep voice: "It's hard to be gracious! But you have to discuss it carefully and discuss it slowly before you can give you an old reply." ”

Jia Duzhong was embarrassed for a while, and said anxiously: "The hearts of the students are hot, don't, don't ......" He didn't say clearly that this was a chilling word, but he also wrote this meaning on his face.

This kind of difficult situation made Ji Bingzhi feel sad for a while.

Yu Xunruo smiled reluctantly: "Don't worry, old man, the children are worried about General Ma, why doesn't General Ma worry about the children." He always talks about it, we must let the dolls study with peace of mind, and our country can have hope!"

As soon as the words fell, those students who had intended to persist were no longer stubborn.

However, it was said that Chen Yanping pulled Li Fengzhu all the way out, got into a truck from a printing house, and bypassed the Japanese Concession and went straight to the French Concession. It wasn't until she got off the bus at the printing house and led her to the dormitory at the back of the factory that she said the big thing that day: "The gendarmerie has brought people!"

Recalling the scene of the crisis just now, Chen Yanping couldn't help but sweat coldly. He also had some things to hide, such as the gendarmerie seemed to have given Wang Fuchun a lot of face, so that he would not end the newspaper office. For another example, Wang Fuchun called Xu Xinqi and Chen Yanping into the office and criticized them for their reporting topics for a while. All in all, the newspaper office was already in a mess now, and Xu Xinqi ordered Chen Yanping to find Li Fengzhu and entrust him to a printing house in the French Concession with long-term contacts, which can be regarded as a temporary place to live.

Li Fengzhu leaned against the wooden partition next to the bed and sighed three times. She didn't regret exposing the spy conspiracy, she only felt that she was guilty. When I escaped from my original apartment to the staff dormitory, I left a lot of luggage behind and still can't pick it up. Now that the entire newspaper has to avoid the limelight, Chen Yanping's actions may not be free, so I really don't know who to send a small bag in the dormitory.

"Before I came, Mies-Chiang took the key to your dormitory and was helping you get some clothes and cover. We discussed that the most important thing was always to save your life, so I will quickly pick you up. Later, someone will come. Chen Yanping saw that she looked frustrated, so he guessed that he was staying here as if he was in prison, and he must not have a good feeling in his heart, so he said to her, "Director Xu said, avoid things and avoid things, and the manuscript should be published as usual." There were many faces in the company, and not all of them were noticed by the Japanese, so there was always a way to send the manuscript back for printing. Of course, Da Mian will not be me, nor Director Xu, not even Misi Jiang. The four of us really choked the Japanese people. You have something to do, and you won't suffocate yourself. ”

"Thanks to you, you have thought of everything. Li Fengzhu thought for a while, and suddenly realized a major problem, "By the way, you said that the gendarmerie came to the company to get people." But when I thought about it, among the drafts I wrote, the only one that mentioned the name of the garrison army was the report on Mao Cai. I signed it under a pseudonym, could it be that my identity was revealed so quickly?"

Chen Yanping shook his head and said: "How can it be, except for the three of us in the society, plus the editor-in-chief Wang, I haven't let the fifth person know, even Misi Jiang doesn't know." ”

The three words "plus" show the difference between intimacy and alienation. Wang Fuchun has long been distrusted by the two of them, let alone respected. What if, that's exactly what he said?

Li Fengzhu couldn't help but feel cold in his hands and feet, and stared at Chen Yanping's eyes for a while, but he didn't speak.

Chen Yanping didn't think about it a little, and patiently comforted: "I think, first of all, you have to be calm. The garrison troops don't know who the 'four abilities' are, and at best they associate them in the direction of a series of reports on the case of abandonment of relatives, which you signed at most. Director Xu had already thought of a way to deal with it, and kept saying that the report was written by a secret newspaper provided by an enthusiastic reader. Because the person concerned strongly requested to hide his identity, he used a pseudonym. Seeing that the situation was confused for the time being, the director was clever, and after a few words, he poured dirty water back on the garrison army, asking them not to be suspicious of outsiders when something happened. Whatever they guess, there is no one who died in Haiguang Temple, but there is no one who killed by mistake. ”

Li Fengzhu just pressed one thing in his heart, but he quickly remembered another thing: "Is there a big loss to the newspaper? You said that Director Xu fooled the matter, don't hide the truth from me just to make me feel at ease." If you want to tell the garrison who killed by mistake, I will believe it, and if you want to say who they are willing to spare, I will really ......."

Chen Yanping said: "It's not like that. It so happened that there were a few decent European friends at that time. ”

"European friends?"

"Yes, isn't Mr. Lu from the economic column busy with an exchange meeting, and you have also helped him translate the manuscript. It was also a coincidence that he invited several foreign experts who attended the meeting to visit the agency, with the intention of exercising them and promoting the authority of our newspaper in economic news in Europe. Unexpectedly, there is such a deterrent effect, and the Japanese are still afraid of international influence at the moment, especially the League of Nations. ”

In this way, the newspaper should be really in danger, Li Fengzhu was also relieved, and asked Chen Yanping to go back to school to hide quickly.

When the room was quiet, there was a chill that penetrated through the bones. Even though she was baked by the midday sun, she still didn't feel much warmth, and hugged her arms tightly.

After sitting like this for half an hour, Li Fengzhu gradually regained his thoughts. She picked up the rough memorization of the live trial, and every word from beginning to end seemed to be filled with emotion, and Ji Bingzhi's voice automatically sounded in her head. She heard it say, "As long as we ourselves are not reconciled to mediocrity, there is no force that can prevent us from being great." ”

She also remembered what she had said to Shi Chu, she still had to prove that the cause of salvation did not distinguish between men and women, she couldn't just talk big and not do practical things.

Oh, that's what you have to do. No matter which corner you are forced to shrink into, you have to keep writing.
