Chapter 177: Verdict Pronounced
Chapter 177
On this day, her head was short-circuited, and Ling Li told Lu Xiaoxiao about Tian Zhengyan's going to beat the bad guys and letting her move into 1802 as an after-dinner conversation.
Regarding Tian Daniu's handsome behavior of rushing to the crown and being angry for his friends, Lu Xiaoxiao slapped the table and exclaimed, admiring enough gossip and blinking her eyes: "Since he let you live, you can live, don't want the pie that falls in the world, are you stupid?" ”
Then he poked her head with a curious look: "You don't want to face a certain southern god day and night?" Do you hate him? Or is it close to love? ”
This series of questions immediately made Ling Li pretend to be a quail, lowered her head and drank the drink in her cup, not daring to say another word.
When she came back from lunch, Ling Li received a call from the court.
Yuan Fei's case will be publicly announced in the afternoon.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Ling Li, who had returned from the court, locked the stack of more than ten pages of judgments in a drawer and sat silently without saying a word.
But even if you don't look at it, the last part of the main text of the verdict still jumps in front of you: "To sum up, the verdict: revoke the second instance and change the sentence to five years and six months to the defendant Yuan Fei. ”
After that, it is "this case is a final judgment", as well as the signature of the collegial panel and the names of the judge's assistant and clerk.
Lost, she lost the case.
Ling Li's heart was full of disappointment and sourness. Although she was mentally prepared for such a result, and knew that most of her efforts would not have good results, she still couldn't calm down immediately when the word failure was naked in front of her.
What's more, there is such a bet that exists. The person who forced her to agree to the gambling contract was afraid that she would soon be moved.
Sure enough, within a few minutes, there was a sound in Qi Wan's direction.
Qi Wan took the verdict she had just received from the court and put it in front of Ling Li, first saying, "What a coincidence, my case has also come to an end today." ”
Then came a slightly coquettish voice: "Alas, I didn't win!" The procuratorate recommended a sentence of three and a half years, but in the end it was changed to two years, and it was not innocent! ”
Ling Li glanced at Qi Wan expressionlessly.
She said that she didn't win, but the sentence was nearly half less than expected, which was obviously showing off to her.
Seeing that Ling Li didn't speak, Qi Wan raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Sister Ling, what about yours?" ”
Taking a deep breath and suppressing a trace of irritability in her heart, Ling Li told her the original result: "If you lose, the sentence will be commuted to five years and six months." ”
"Huh? That's a shame. She covered her mouth exaggeratedly and raised her voice: "Sister Ling worked so much overtime, and she didn't win this case, it's a pity." ”
Her tone full of regret drew a look at her colleagues.
Ling Li turned a blind eye to the strange gazes around her, and only tilted her head slightly to look at Qi Wan: "Say, what else do you want?" What's going on? ”
"Willing to gamble and lose, have you forgotten?" Qi Wan lowered her voice and winked at her: "Don't think that you can not keep your word with Zhu Jinchuan's support, in short, you can't run away from the debts you should repay, so don't hide." ”
"What the hell are you talking about?" Ling Li frowned suspiciously, she and Qi Wan didn't know each other before, how could they owe her anything? However, regarding the repayment of debts, Qi Wan mentioned it once last time outside the court.
Qi Wan snorted coldly: "It doesn't matter what I say, what you do matters." If you want to pay off, you tell you that there may be something out of your control. ”
"I know," Ling Li rubbed the corners of her forehead: "Okay, I'll say, are you satisfied?" ”
"Satisfied!" She raised the corners of her mouth and nodded slowly, turned proudly, and returned to her desk in a few steps.
Half an hour later, in Zhu Jinchuan's office, Ling Li put a letter of resignation in front of him again.
When he saw clearly what was in front of him, Zhu Jinchuan was speechless.
He said with a smile: "Second sister, can you resign with me once you don't want to finish a case?" ”
Ling Li lowered her head and said like a gnat: "I don't want to, but I can't keep my promises." ”
The sixth sense and a flash of inspiration at the critical moment allowed her to escape Qi Wan's plot, but she was not sure that she would be able to avoid Qi Wan's deliberate troubles again.
If she defaults on the debt, she really can't tell Qi Wan what else she will do.
Since she said that she didn't like to stay by Zhu Jinchuan's side, even if she was nonsense, Ling Li really didn't want to stay with such a *.
She came out to work to support her family and support herself, there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days, if she stays with Qi Wan as a colleague to prevent her from calculating herself at any time, it is better to simply leave to prevent future troubles.
She lost the lawsuit this time, but she is confident that she will no longer be as stupid as she was before, and she will not be as eager to try as she is, even if she lacks Zhu Jinchuan's protection, she will not do too badly.
Zhu Jinchuan shook his head as if he knew her psychological activities: "Didn't I say that you children have an inexplicable gambling contract?" Don't worry about it. Whether it is from the contract law or the general provisions of the civil law, you have no problem in defaulting on your debts. ”
"Huh?" Ling Li blinked, Zhu Jinchuan said to her fiercely on this issue, but she didn't expect Zhu Jinchuan to teach her to repay her debts?
"Silly!" He looked at him with a slight reproach: "What kind of gambling contract do you have, have you ever signed a contract?" Even if you sign it, does this count as a lucky contract? Are there any formal and substantive requirements necessary for the contract, and whether there are any conditions for legality? ”
"But......" her voice was so low that he could barely hear it, "she threatened me that if I fell on my bills, she wanted me to look good." ”
Looking at the slightly aggrieved look in her pouting eyes, the corner of Zhu Jinchuan's heart quickly softened.
is as stubborn as Ling's second sister, and finally came to complain to her parents, being forced to this point, of course he can't let it go.
Originally, I wanted to say a few more words about her rough and rough bad habit of betting with others, and as soon as she was threatened, she was helpless and let others slaughter her, but at this time she also put it in her stomach.
Zhu Jinchuan picked up the resignation letter on the table, simply tore it up and threw it into the wastebasket: "You elm head, I can't tell you clearly." You go out, and call Qi Wan in by the way. ”
Ling Li moved her lips, and wanted to tell more that she was not from the elm head, but she was stunned by a pair of Shangzhu Jinchuan's eyes with a little disgust.
She shrunk her neck, deciding that this time she should not be strong, and obediently hid behind Zhu Dazhuo, and pretended to be a tiger once.
Qi Wan, who was called to the office, naturally knew what Zhu Jinchuan was looking for her, so she generously first reported the verdict of her case, and then asked with a smile: "My first case is not bad, right?" ”
Zhu Jinchuan was noncommittal, took the pen in his hand and recorded the case situation in Qi Wan's notebook, and wrote "closed" on the last line.
This is also a habit that has been cultivated over the years, and some lawyers in the firm who have not been in the profession for a long time, no matter how big or small the case in their hands, they still have to inquire about it and record it in the case for easy management.
Xu became a criminal defense lawyer as soon as he entered the industry, he has always been accustomed to being alone, knowing that having the support of the team behind him can make him much easier, and he can also take on the kind of cases that involve group lawsuits and have a huge impact, but unless he is lacking in skills, he is never used to borrowing the hands of others.
Closing the notebook, he raised his eyes to look at Qi Wan with an invitation in his eyes, and said, "When this month's salary is settled, you can leave." ”
Qi Wan had a smile on her face: "Didn't you say that it would be a good year?" Why are you going to drive me away in less than two months?
"I'm a medium-sized firm at best, and I have only more than 30 lawyers, which is not outstanding in the industry, so why do you have to rely here? As long as you don't deliberately pretend to be stupid and stupid, I believe that the master who is willing to take you will be a lot. He finished saying this slowly, and then frowned slightly, observing Qi Wan's reaction.
Unexpectedly, he didn't save face at all, Qi Wan bit her lower lip: "That's a nice thing to say, in fact, you're just worried that I'm not good for Ling Li." But you clearly promised before that you wouldn't care about me and her. ”
Zhu Jinchuan shook his head: "If you are just reckless and competitive, I will naturally not care." It's a pity that the purpose of your bet is not simple, and you have already stepped on the line. With that alone, you can't stay here anymore. ”
Before Qi Wan could speak again, Zhu Jinchuan suddenly took out a stack of photos from the drawer and threw them in front of her.
"Qi Wan," he knocked on the table, "Don't think that you can get past the matter of instigating others to falsify evidence so easily." ”
As soon as she heard Zhu Jinchuan talk about this, Qi Wan's face was full of surprise and innocence: "Ling Li, she told you?" It's all her unwarranted speculation, and I've never done anything. ”
There was a hint of ridicule on the corner of his mouth: "You must know that the more you do, the more wrong you are, just from the fact that you handed Ling Li the information in my name, I knew that things would not be so simple." ”
Qi Wan lowered her eyes and looked at those photos, her originally calm expression was gone, her face became more and more pale, and her lower lip bit to the point of pale: "This ......"
Although the picture was vague, she was almost certain that these were the two people she had invited to pretend to be Yuan Fei's parents.
Zhu Jinchuan hooked the corners of his mouth: "Do you think that if you find two extras from other places, you can hide from everyone?" If these images are sent to the Ministry of Public Security, they can quickly find out who these two people really are through the portrait matching system. Do you think that the vast sea of people is the best cover, don't you know the truth that Skynet is magnificent and sparse? ”
Goosebumps quickly formed on Qi Wan's back.
She avoided all opportunities to meet the two of them, and told them to bypass all the cameras in the building, and even put a lot of effort into getting the entire building from the lascivious security guard on the first floor, but forgot about the Skynet outside the building.
Therefore, she thinks that it is seamless, but in fact, there are traces to follow. Such a big loophole was seized by Zhu Jinchuan, and he was defeated.
She bit her lower lip lightly: "Where did you get the channel to get the data from the surrounding Skynet?" What else is there to match, it's just a child's game for us, Ling Li is worth your big move? ”
Zhu Jinchuan avoided answering her question, and after being silent for a few seconds, the conversation changed: "Qi Wan, you have almost hidden from everyone, but you have not hidden Ling Li, who should be fooled the most. You haven't thought about it, what is the reason for this? It was precisely because you regarded the bottom line of lawyer's professional ethics as nothing that Ling Li was shocked. ”
Qi Wan's eyes immediately turned red
After a while, she whispered: "Can't I promise not to move her in the future?" ”
"No," he shook his head, "you have a credit stain now, and I won't believe your promises." ”
