Chapter 183: Repaying the Favor

Yun Yin had already known about the case a few days earlier. Cao Yun was not wrong, if it was just a simple case of Fujimu Company covering up the accident, the Flame Court would not have been involved so quickly.

This case is related to two chief and deputy temple chiefs in Mingtang City (there are too many mayors, and it is easy to be taken care of, and all of them will be temple chiefs in the future).

Four years ago, the former temple chief was called Nakajima.

Four years ago, Nakashima had a few months left in his term and began to advertise his pursuit of re-election. One of the company's mining applications was rejected by the authorities, and the company requested arbitration at the city hall. The content of the application is Area C, which according to the survey, has a dense vein, but at the same time Area C is not far from the underground tributary.

Logically speaking, the application must not be granted. However, there are technical problems with the tributaries, which are centered on Area C, with the underground river to the west of Area C and the tributaries to the southeast of Area C. It is technically speculated that the tributaries go southward, flowing directly out of the surface and into the creek. Even if there is a problem, there is no contamination of the drinking water supply, nor will it pollute the West Lake (Caoyun Diaoyu Lake), which provides downstream irrigation.

During Nakajima's tenure, he vigorously developed industry, mining, and aerospace technology, and paid more attention to the application of the Fujiki Company. At Nakajima's request, the relevant authorities set up a five-member expert group to conduct a technical demonstration of Area C, and finally confirmed that the tributaries near Area C had nothing to do with underground rivers and irrigation water. Even if you are contaminated, the consequences and losses are manageable.

So the application was approved.

The first defendant of the Flame Court, former temple chief Nakajima, accepted a million yuan 'loop' and passed the application for reexploration. (News, the Japanese economy minister is suspected of charging 344 yen, and the temple chief is suspected of charging hundreds of thousands of yen, which is super invincible news in their country.) Of course, it can be understood, after all, it is a small country, and it is completely incomparable with our big country. )

The second defendant, at the request of Nakajima, was formed by the relevant departments to re-explore the group leader of the group in Maemura.

The third defendant, the president and largest shareholder of Fujiki Company, and the legal representative: Fujiki. After a small collapse and water penetration accident occurred in Area C, not only did he not report it, but in order to cover up the truth of the matter, he even attempted to murder the prosecutor.

The fourth defendant, the current temple chief, Kojima. After he took office, someone from the relevant department reported on the exploitation of Area C by Fujiki and asked Kojima to send someone to investigate and shut down Area C. Nakajima helped Kojima successfully gain the support of the Nakajima faction in the city council, passing the construction of a fast track in exchange for Kojima no longer tracking down Area C.

At present, the first, second, and third defendants have been arrested by the Flame Court, and Kato, Fujiki's personal assistant who was also kidnapped, has agreed to become tainted witnesses, and they will appear in court as witnesses. Including Yue Sanchi, they are all witnesses.

The Flame Court has also been upgraded to version 2.0, and the prosecutor will be appointed by the Flame Court.

The lawyers who have arrived are: Nangong Tengfei, Ling Hulan, and Tang Kai, and now ask Cao Yun to determine whether to attend the defense, if Cao Yun is unwilling to appear in court to defend, the Flame Court will look for a lawyer again.

The court session will be at 2.30 p.m. today.

Yun Yin speculated that Nangong Tengfei's application to the Flame Court should be half-pushed, his career has started again, and in order to restore his glorious career in the past in a short period of time, a lot of exposure is especially needed.

Ling Hulan's condition is unknown. Nine times out of ten, Tang Kai was kidnapped, because Tang Kai had the most dazzling lawyer in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and he had won 42 court appearances in his career. Regardless of luck or other reasons, when looking at the data, Tang Kai is also the best lawyer in Dongtang, and there is no one. In addition, although Tang Kai retired, he did not withdraw from the judicial circle, but no longer took on cases. The Tang Kai Law Firm opened by him is also one of the top law firms in Dongtang.

Browsing the materials shows that this is a typical criminal case of collusion between enterprises and officials.

Cao Yun drank two cups of coffee, and after reading and listening to the relevant situation of the case, he said: "The purpose of the Flame Court this time is to impact the credibility of the government. "The judiciary and other departments have lost their authority, and the Flame Court has naturally become the representative of justice.

Yun Yin put ice cubes on his left eye: "What do you think?"

Cao Yun said: "I don't know about the first, second, and fourth defendants, but the third defendant, Fujiki, he really attempted murder. He sent people to trap you under the mines, and you can't get away with this crime. Coupled with the testimony of Kato and others, he is dead. Someone else, right...... I'll talk to Ling Hulan first and hear her opinion. ”

Cao Yun contacted Waiter No. 1, and Waiter No. 1 contacted Ling Hulan, and then contacted Cao Yun. Cao Yun left the room and knocked on the door of Ling Hulan's room.

……

I don't know what the hell this place is, the environment feels cold. Ling Hulan, who was more chilly, handed Cao Yun a cup of cocoa, took a cup herself, sat on the edge of the bed, supported the bed with one hand, crossed her legs, and leaned back: "Do you have a surname?"

Cao Yun laughed for a while: "Here you go again?"

"This is the most comfortable position to sit. ”

Cao Yun sat down.

Ling Hulan took off her high heels and sat on the bed completely, leaning against the wall, judging from her movements, she should have worked for a long time, and her body was tired, so she always chose the most comfortable position. Conversely, skin and body are not able to mask the age of bones.

Cao Yun asked, "Lawyer Lan, were you kidnapped?"

"No, I came on my own initiative?"

"Huh?"

"Blaze called me and said Fujiki wanted me to appear in court to defend him, and I came. Ling Hulan said: "I told you last time, Fujiki has the grace of knowing me, and Fujiki Company gave me the first corporate legal counsel contract. To put it mildly, I am actually very grateful to this day, and that period can be said to be the most difficult period of my life. It is really not easy for a woman to achieve a career in the Eastern Tang Dynasty. ”

After finishing her internship, Ling went to work at a law firm, but she soon discovered that discrimination against women was widespread in the firm. Because she is a woman and she is a newcomer, her day-to-day work is just ordinary legal advice. The source of the case obtained through ordinary legal consultation is assigned by the company to other lawyers.

Ling Hulan was very dissatisfied with the company's boss, saying that a newcomer dared to talk to the boss, which also explained Ling Hulan's character. The owner of the company is quite passable, and he suggested that Ling Hulan first become a well-known lawyer's assistant in the law firm, and after accumulating several years of experience, he should consider handling cases independently.

Ling Hulan felt that there was also a certain amount of truth, after all, most of the new lawyers came over like this. So she became a lawyer's assistant, and a lawyer had a lot of thoughts about her. After being eaten tofu, Ling Hulan angrily kicked a lawyer and filed a complaint with the lawyers' committee. The company's senior management believes that this kind of thing is inevitable in the workplace, so Ling Hulan makes a big fuss, and if Ling Hulan insists, a lawyer will not only have his license revoked, but also go to jail.

The company talked to Ling Hulan about this, but Ling Hulan did not agree to settle, and finally Ling Hulan left the law firm and opened Linghu Law Firm.

The law firm was very angry because of Ling Hulan's attitude, and the boss was also a face-saving person. So he found someone to apply to become the receptionist of Linghu Law Firm, and in the next two months, Linghu Law Firm did not have any business. Even the business of contacting for legal advice was quietly transferred by the receptionist.

When the business failed, the company found Ling Hulan again, hoping that she could change her confession and withdraw the complaint. Ling Hulan was very persistent, and in the end, on the premise that Ling Hulan showed that she was willing to give up civil compensation, the lawyer was sentenced to three years in prison.

If the victim's relatives show that they are willing to give up civil compensation, the perpetrator may be punished more heavily.

Ling Hulan started to run the business by herself, but the law firm intercepted the source of the case at any cost, and even the client who had signed the power of attorney would rather pay liquidated damages than end the entrustment contract with Ling Hulan.

In this case, Ling Hulan couldn't hold on. Twenty days after being alone, Fujiki approached her when she decided to close her law firm and change careers. Things are trivial. At that time, the Eastern Tang Dynasty had the business of the Fujiki Company, and Fujiki went to the Eastern Tang Dynasty to do business, but was beaten up. The police station told Fujiki that the person was arrested, and the gangster recognized the wrong person. Fujiki asked to file a case and sued the other party for criminal offenses, but because his injuries were not serious and did not meet the criteria for filing a case, the police did not file a case and suggested that Fujiki file a civil lawsuit for compensation.

Fujiki is a foreigner, and he wanted to swallow this breath, but he happened to be waiting for a friend near Linghu's law firm, and he took advantage of the time to come to consult. Ling Hulan took the case, and she told Fujiki that she would do her best to prepare the last case of her career as a lawyer, because the lease of Ling Hulan's law firm expired in a few days.

Ling Hulan first applied for reconsideration, and in the reconsideration, she made a generous statement. First explain that the beater has a bad deed, and then explain that beating Fujiki in a public place is a crime of conduct, not a crime of consequences. Even if Fujiki was not injured, the actions of the beater had insulted Fujiki's personality and caused great damage to Fujiki's heart. He then accused the police of laziness and then questioned the police for malfeasance.

Although the police didn't care, a judge who attended the reconsideration strongly agreed with Ling Hulan's view, believing that when a person is beaten in public, the harm caused is not only physical injury, but also internal insult injury. If it is not possible to protect the safety of an innocent person in public, then the person who assaults another person in public must be severely punished as an example.

The police were not convinced, and the case went to court. Ling Hulan invited 20 witnesses to appear in court, and used the personal experience of these people to illustrate the importance of face to a person. For example, a husband is strict with his wife and is very afraid of his wife, but when his wife yells at him in public, he will immediately resist and divorce strongly. Ling Hulan then analyzed people's self-esteem from a technical point of view, and then showed that the damage caused by the beater to Fujiki was very serious.

In the end, Hulan won the case, the police opened a case, and the prosecutor charged the beater. Fujiki learned about Ling Hulan's situation, and in order to express his gratitude, hired Ling Hulan to be his company's legal counsel, and also introduced the source of the case in the circle to Ling Hulan. After Ling Hulan became famous in the Ming Tang Dynasty, she returned to the Eastern Tang Dynasty and became a well-known strong woman.

Therefore, after receiving a call from the Flame Court and understanding the situation, Ling Hulan agreed to defend Fujiki and transferred the very important business at hand to a law firm.

After hearing this, Cao Yun admired Ling Hulan very much in his heart, there are really not many people who can miss him like this, and he must know that it is not a good thing to enter the Flame Court. What's more, Ling Hulan is defending Fujiki, Fujiki has done a lot of bad things, and some of the evidence is conclusive, so Ling Hulan will not only lose fame, but also lose reputation.

……

Cao Yundao: "Lawyer Lan, Fujiki is probably the most difficult object to overturn the case. He's the one who strings it all together. 'Guilds', kidnappings, arranging, and even pollution of water sources and farmland, he has an unshirkable responsibility. On the other hand, if Fujiki is not guilty, others are naturally innocent as well. ”

Ling Hulan said helplessly: "Yes, even now, I don't have the ability to return to the sky, but I just do my best...... What about you? Who are you going to defend against?"

Cao Yun replied: "Since Lawyer Lan has such an important personal debt to repay, why don't we set up a joint defense seat?"

Ling Hulan understood Cao Yun: "Hearing you say this, you at least have some ideas?"

Cao Yun said: "The Flame Court has a weakness, the court will not be held for a long time. The murder of the actress who was so complicated last time ended in two days. They have to take into account that the court session is too long and will allow the police to get caught. As long as we put forward new arguments again and again, making it difficult for the trial to end, maybe Fujiki will still have a chance to live. ”

Fujiki is a good guy and certainly a bad guy. Is Ling Hulan a good person? She helped Fujiki defend the bad guys, and she should also be considered a bad guy. A nest of snakes and rats, it can be inferred from this that Cao Yun is also a bad person. This logic is of course wrong, but at the same time, it is also the logic that many people like to use.

Ling Hulan said: "No. Let's be honest, my current ability as a lawyer has been recognized, and I don't need to prove my ability and my position anymore. For example, even if Nangong Tengfei is a bastard, there are rich people who like such bastards. To be famous means to have a job. You are different, you rise too fast, your foothold is unstable, a wave of public opinion hits, you may sink. This case is different from the actress case, and the defendants in this case are estimated to be unclean. The actress case is the responsibility of analysis. No matter who you defend for, it will only do you bad, not good. ”

Cao Yun said: "If I can overturn the case, it will be different. ”

Ling Hulan's buttocks and feet moved a few steps on the bed to the side of the bed, and turned the computer monitor on the table: "Look, these are the confessions of witnesses. Including the confession of Fujiki's personal assistant Kato, an environmental expert, and a security manager. The Flame Court is not a place where evidence is important, and with the confessions of these people, none of the four defendants can escape. Suffice it to say, all four defendants are directly involved in the pollution that is happening now. ”

The pollution can be treated, and the consequences of the pollution are not the focus of this case.

The first focus of this case is that the government and businessmen colluded to ignore the threat to the lives of the villagers, concealed the possible threat for four years, and connived at the threat. The second focus, fifteen days after the contamination caused by the collapse of Block C, the four defendants were all insiders, but they kept this information from the public and the authorities, and finally the truth was finally revealed to the public thanks to the prosecutor's own efforts, and the prosecutor was almost murdered.

The people of the Eastern Tang Dynasty had a very low tolerance for corruption and were very disgusted. The two focal points are equivalent to touching the bottom line of the people. This bottom line is even lower than everyone can imagine, so I won't elaborate here.

After Cao Yun drank the cocoa, Ling Hulan helped to have another cup, and after three cups, Cao Yun finally finished watching the results of Ling Hulan's eight hours of work.

Based on the available information and analysis of the situation, none of the four accused escaped.
