After that night, Xu Yan has been wondering about this matter: the methods of several gangsters are ferocious and ruthless, and it can be seen from the words they leaked that the other party's goal is very clear, that is, he came for himself, and he is not a robber who happened to meet a house.

But Xu Yan didn't understand, why did the other party deal with him?

If someone wants to deal with Xu Yan, a lieutenant colonel of the Intelligence Department, Xu Yan can understand it, but at that time, he and Wen Xiuzhi didn't know each other, and he was just an ordinary college student, who would be interested in dealing with him?

The mysterious attack that occurred last year has always been a mystery in Xu Yan's heart, and it has made him haunted. He really wanted to find out about this matter and find out who was behind it, but it was always unfortunate that after that incident, many things happened one after another, and Xu Yan was overwhelmed to deal with it, and he didn't have time to investigate.

Moreover, Zhu Youxiang killed five people in one go, and he didn't even leave a living mouth, and the decisive ferocity of this killing also made Xu Yan jealous - in the Jincheng City Public Security Bureau, he is not without acquaintances, such as Huang Shan, the head of the criminal police detachment, such as Zheng Qiuyi, the deputy head of the detachment, but Xu Yan is also worried that if he takes the initiative to inquire about this case, will it attract the attention of the public security department and attract suspicious eyes to himself?

Although it is said that his identity is different now, he is covered by the Wen family, and the identity of an officer of the intelligence bureau is covered, and the local public security bureau may not be able to do anything to him, but Xu Yan is cautious by nature, and he is still unwilling to take this kind of risk -- this is not a public security case such as fighting, brawl and gambling, this is a major gun-related case involving five lives! If he is targeted by the Jincheng Public Security, even if he can get out, he will take off a layer of skin.

Once the matter is exposed, even if he can justify it as self-defense, there are so many incredible things in the case that he must explain how to throw the five bodies across the road two hundred meters away - there are too many difficult things to explain in the case.

So. Regarding this unsolved case, although Xu Yan also wants to know who the murderer behind it is, so far, he has still adopted a turtle-shrunken turtle attitude - he doesn't ask, don't listen, don't ignore, don't look, and pretend that this incident didn't happen at all.

His strength is growing every day, and time is on his side. Xu Yan intended. When I will be stronger in the future, when I am really successful in my cultivation, conventional weapons will no longer be able to pose a threat to me, and at that time, I will expect that with my own position, a mere murder case will no longer be able to bind me, and I will be able to go back to this case.

But what Xu Yan didn't expect was that he was still "Taoguang obscure", and the other party had already sent someone to find him!

Looking at Lawyer Tang, Xu Yan's eyes flickered. But anger rose in his chest: the other party's courage is really big!

The killer he sent stabbed himself with a knife, and if Zhu Youxiang hadn't intervened, they would have killed themselves on the spot!

The other party wants to kill himself, this is your life-and-death enmity, the other party just wants to use a mere 500,000 to smooth out this matter, he thinks too lightly? Is his life only worth 500,000?

When you are a fool who has never seen money?

The anger in his heart burned, but Xu Yan seemed very calm on the surface. He glanced at Lawyer Tang and picked up the tea on the table for a long time. He took a slow sip and lowered his eyes slightly.

saw Xu Yan's style. Lawyer Tang was open-minded, he smiled and said, "It seems that Xu Yan should have remembered who my client is." ”

Xu Yan smiled faintly, and he nodded: "Lawyer Tang, you have been a lawyer for many years. You must have handled a lot of various types of cases, right? ”

Lawyer Tang was stunned for a moment, and he said modestly: "Mr. Xu has won the award, I have been a lawyer for 15 years, and I have handled some criminal cases, contract cases, and civil cases, so I can be regarded as having some experience." How. Xu Yan, do you have anything to say? ”

"It's nothing, since Lawyer Tang, you are an experienced person, I would like to ask a question - based on Lawyer Tang's experience over the years, how much do you think a life is worth?"

Lawyer Tang was stunned again--this Xu Yan, why does he keep asking some weird questions?

He groaned slightly, and said with a smile: "Classmate Xu Yan, you really asked me this question. According to the views of our people, human life is priceless, how can it be measured by money?

But in the eyes of those of us who do the law, priceless things do not exist, and human life can indeed be measured in money, but how much is a human life worth, this ...... There are different answers in different situations.

For example, if a person is killed in a traffic accident, the compensation for human life is generally compensated according to the standards of death compensation, funeral expenses, solatium for mental damage, and living expenses of dependents, among which the death compensation is the lion's share, which is generally calculated according to 20 times the per capita annual disposable income of the local people -- according to the different levels of economic conditions in various places, the amount of compensation is generally between 500,000 and 600,000 to 1 million.

If it is a civil compensation for personal death incidental to a criminal case, this is different - for example, if the murderer has been sentenced to death, the incidental personal death compensation will be very low, generally only 50,000 or 70,000 or 80,000;

However, if the murderer's crime is within the range of the death penalty or a suspended death sentence, at this time, whether he will be sentenced to death in the final trial, and whether the victim's family is willing to sign a letter of understanding is a very important basis for the judge to consider when deciding the case -- generally speaking, as long as the victim's family has signed the letter of understanding, the judge will generally not give the death penalty.

I'm talking about this, Xu Yan, do you understand?

At this time, in order to escape the death penalty, the murderer had to go out even if he was bankrupt. At this time, I don't dare to say what happened to other people, but if the victim's family had entrusted me, I would have been able to get a million or even more than two or three million in compensation for the victim's family.

For example, in the Wang Gaofeng murder case a while ago, the victim's family asked me to negotiate on their behalf, and in the end, I helped them win 2.8 million yuan in compensation, which was twice as much as their family originally expected to be 1 million...... Oh, sorry. I said off topic, this is also a professional habit, I love to advertise myself, Xu Yan and Liu Yang, don't worry about it - of course, if you have any legal matters to deal with. You are also welcome to find my agent, I will definitely provide the most dedicated service for the two of you. ”

Seeing that Lawyer Tang was talking about his experience, Xu Yan interrupted him very rudely: "I'm sorry, Lawyer Tang, interrupt you - I've been listening to it for a long time, but the more I listen, the more confused I become, how much is a human life worth, and you haven't given me an exact answer?" ”

Lawyer Tang sighed: "Classmate Xu Yan, in fact, I just said it. It is to answer your question: human life is priceless, but in different occasions and different legal relationships, human life has its own different price. How much is a human life worth? There is no standard for this. ”

Xu Yan leaned back comfortably in the chair, and he smiled calmly: "Thank you very much Lawyer Tang, I feel quite rewarding after listening to your explanation today." ”

"Where, where, everyone just communicates with each other."

"Hmm. Listen to Lawyer Tang, you said, a criminal case. You can claim nearly three million, this, although I, Xu Yan, am just an ordinary college student, I don't dare to be self-conscious. So, Mr. Tang, your client wants to use a mere 500,000 yuan to smooth out the old things. He couldn't help but think too lightly - my Xu Yan's life is not so cheap! ”

Lawyer Tang narrowed his eyes slightly—he couldn't understand Xu Yan's words, but he could feel the murderous feeling in Xu Yan's words. In the body of the handsome young man in front of him, a strong sense of oppression was rising. He could barely breathe—he could intuitively feel that there must be a bitter grudge between the young man in front of him and his client, and that hatred was already overflowing.

It's really hard to imagine, why can this young student bring such a strong sense of oppression to himself?

Lawyer Tang took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and said calmly: "Xu Yan, I don't understand what grievances you have had with my client, and I don't know what's going on - I was entrusted by someone to come here to negotiate a deal with you, if you and Liu Yang are willing to accept this transaction, then we will make a deal, you make a fortune, and I can also earn some errand fees for the commission; If you don't want to accept it, then it doesn't matter, whether the transaction is closed or not, everyone should make friends. ”

Xu Yan smiled: "Lawyer Tang, you said you don't understand the matter between me and your client—it's good, I don't need you to understand." Now, please tell him what I said—my life is not so worthless!" If you want to buy my life, 500,000 is not enough! ”

Lawyer Tang squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Yan for a while, and he asked softly, "If 500,000 is not enough, then how much is enough?" ”

Xu Yan grinned: "Ten million!" Sue your client, if you want to reconcile with me, please show sincerity! ”

Rao is lawyer Tang is well-informed, but when he suddenly heard the number of 10 million, he was still slightly shocked: "10 million? Xu Yan, are you kidding me? This number...... That's impossible!

Xu Yan, if you want more, I can understand it, and I can also work hard to help you fight for it, on the basis of 500,000 yuan, maybe you can fight for more. But if you open your mouth, you will need 10 million...... That's simply not possible! There's no way my client agrees! ”

Xu Yan said lightly: "Lawyer Tang, what conditions are proposed is my business, whether I accept this condition or not, it is your client's business." Your task is to convey my conditions to the other party, and as for whether you are willing to accept this condition, that is your client's business, isn't it? ”

Lawyer Tang looked at Xu Yan dumbfounded, his eyes seemed to be looking at a monster. Then, he smiled bitterly: "Classmate Xu Yan, please wait a moment, I'll go out and call my client-"

Lawyer Tang went out, and only Xu Yan and Liu Yang were left in the box. Liu Yang looked at Xu Yan dumbfounded, as if he was looking at a completely strange person.

Xu Yan frowned slightly: "Fatty, what's wrong with you?" ”

The fat man woke up like a dream, and he sighed: "Yanzi, you are really amazing! ”

"Hehe, it's nothing to show off your mouth."

"Yanzi, I'm not saying that you are eloquent, I mean that you are powerful! You completely overwhelmed Lawyer Tang in momentum! Just now, when you spoke, you were so confident and domineering, and you felt like a big man! The fat man shook his head and exclaimed, "This is the legendary king's spirit, right?" ”

Hearing Liu Yang's praise, Xu Yan smiled: When he was in the capital, he came into contact with powerful people - such as Wen Lao, such as Wen Xiuzhi, who had just been promoted to major general, and the boss of the Wen family who became the secretary of the provincial party committee. has had a lot of contact with these powerful people, and Xu Yan unconsciously imitated the other party's way of speaking, expression and body language, and felt that he had also learned a little charm.

Xu Yan found that the environment has a great impact on people, if a person often plays with the silkies, then his words and deeds will gradually become more and more silky; If he usually comes into contact with some successful people or upper-class people, then his words and deeds will become more and more confident and powerful.

"By the way, Yanzi, I don't understand what you just said: you just said that you and that lawyer Tang's client seem to have a deep grudge and holiday? Are you really going to ask that guy for 10 million? ”

Hearing the fat man's question, Xu Yan shook his head - although the fat man Liu Yang and himself are very good buddies, but after all, this is a matter involving five lives, and it is very inappropriate to rashly disclose the matter to him, Xu Yan is worried that the fat man will be affected.

Therefore, Xu Yan just smiled faintly: "Do you think that person may be willing to pay 10 million?" ”

The fat man thought about it seriously for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't think that's possible—how could a normal person give 10 million for such an illusory thing?" ”

Xu Yan nodded: "Yes, in fact, I think so too - it is impossible for him to pay so much money, I shouted all over the sky, just to let him retreat." ”

The fat man was a little puzzled: "It turns out that Yanzi, you also know that it is impossible for him to pay so much money?" Then why don't you just reject him? ”

Xu Yan shook his head - there is a subtle difference between asking for 10 million and directly refusing: if he refuses the other party's reconciliation proposal, it is clear that he will not die with the other party. In this case, the other party will only throw away a qiē illusion and go all out to kill Xu Yan.

Although Xu Yan has his current identity and strength, he doesn't care much about these sneaky threats, but as the saying goes, there are only thieves for a thousand days, and there is no thief for a thousand days. The enemy is in the dark, and even if he is a powerful cultivator, it is impossible for him to remain vigilant 24 hours a day to prevent the other party from sneaking up - it is too tiring to live like this.

Moreover, even if the other party can't do anything about himself, but he still has relatives and friends, it is impossible for him to protect so many people.

But now, Xu Yan gave the other party a counter-mention and asked for 10 million - although Xu Yan also knew that it was impossible for the other party to give him so much money, but this was a faint hint after all, indicating that the matter still had to be discussed, and the other party still had hope of reconciliation, so that the matter would not be done immediately.

In other words, Xu Yan asked for 10 million, which was just a smoke bomb he released, he didn't really expect to get 10 million, his real purpose was to stabilize the other party, so that the other party would not jump off the wall immediately.

This matter is too complicated, Xu Yan was hesitating, how to explain the subtlety to the fat man, Liu Yang saw Xu Yan's embarrassment, but he spoke first: "Yanzi, don't tell me about this matter." If you sue me, when I go out to drink with a beautiful woman one day, I will blow nonsense after drinking too much, and it will be troublesome to say it. ”

The fat man was considerate, Xu Yan was also pleased, he said apologetically: "Fatty, this matter is a bit risky, I won't tell you, it's also to avoid affecting you." (To be continued......)
