Chapter 32: An Unexpected Ending

Before the trial, and even before Xu Jie produced the video, Yang Zhiping's father and others, as well as lawyer Qian Dongshun, deliberately found false evidence to send me to a juvenile correctional center.

No, they definitely won't be around me like they are now, licking their faces and saying nice things about their waists.

Since none of them intend to let me go, I have a good position, why should I let them go?

Xu Jie came over and patted me on the shoulder with a smile, and then I walked to Wang Li and Zhou Meimei, high-fived them, and said thank you and the like, Wang Li said brother, Zhou Meimei also hooked up with me and said brother, I looked at her chest that had bulged up the hill, and thought to myself that it was not good to be a brother, it was better to be a lover.

Finally I walked over to my mom and dad, because I felt guilty, looking at my dad's wrinkles beyond his actual age, looking at my mom's concerned eyes and smile all the time, my throat was like a fishbone, and it was difficult to speak.

"Dad, Mom, I was wrong, this time I made you worry again." I bowed my head and said in a voice that was almost inaudible to me.

"Good boy, you did something wrong, but it's not because you worry us, but because you have such a big thing and still hide it from us, as long as you don't do anything illegal, your mother and father will support you, and no matter how big the hardship is, they will get through it together." Daddy had a hint of reproach on his face, but more of a concern and support for me.

"Yes." I nodded heavily.

Then my father and mother personally went over to Wang Li, Zhou Meimei and my cousin to express their gratitude, saying that they were so grateful to be able to testify for me. Wang Li said again and again that he and I are best friends, and it is trivial to help with this.

About ten minutes later, a staff member of the court came out and called Xu Jie and Qian Dongshun in, and I didn't know what they said inside, and then called my father, Yang Zhiping, and those fathers who had given false testimony in, and Yang Xiuying also went in.

Nearly twenty minutes have passed, and they still haven't come out, which has exceeded the break time that the judge just said, and it is more than twice as much, what are they doing in it? Isn't the verdict announced?

I was a little confused, Wang Li and his cousin didn't know what the situation was, Zhou Meimei suddenly said that this may be a private settlement, because only when the reconciliation is being discussed, the judge will not come out to announce the verdict. I said, didn't I just agree to reconcile? Zhou Meimei shrugged, she didn't know this question anymore.

When it was almost eleven o'clock, my dad and they finally came out, I hurriedly walked up, just wanted to ask what happened, but the judge also came out, and walked onto the trial seat, began to beat the small gavel, and after the silence inside, the judge said that after the plaintiff and the defendant's guardians discussed together, a settlement agreement was reached, and the case of me accusing Yang Zhiping of deliberately hurting people ended here, and the judge announced his withdrawal from the courtroom.

Withdrawn from court like this? Why do you feel a little anticlimactic?

When I walked out of the court, I pulled lawyer Xu Jie aside and asked what was going on inside, Xu Jie said that my father agreed to sign a settlement agreement under the persuasion of Yang Zhiping's father and others, and she didn't want to go into detail about the specific settlement conditions, so she asked me to ask my father.

I said I didn't agree, Xu Jie said that because I am not yet eighteen years old, I can't exercise my citizenship, so I don't count this matter, my guardian, that is, my father, will exercise my citizenship rights.

I see.

I asked how to deal with Qian Dongshun's finding someone to give false testimony?

Xu Jie said that because today's case was accepted by me against Yang Zhiping for deliberately hurting people, there were no other cases, and although the result was settled, the fact was that I won and received compensation. The case of Qian Dongshun finding someone to give false testimony is not within the scope of acceptance of this case, and the judge in charge this time does not have the qualifications to try Qian Dongshun, and the court will only provide evidence, combine her materials, and hand it over to the judicial department that specifically manages the lawyer, and the judicial department will decide whether to take corresponding measures against Qian Dongshun.

Xu Jie also gave me a simple law lesson, she said that among the six major departments, including public security, procuratorate, court, department, security, and civil affairs, each has its own duties. The judiciary's job is to uphold the law, ensure that the law is properly enforced, and resolve disputes. The courts mainly punish criminals through trials, resolve social contradictions and disputes, and safeguard fairness and justice.

I listen to the clouds and fog, how do I feel the same? But I can also understand one thing, that is, Qian Dongshun is going to be unlucky this time, Xu Jie will definitely not let this guy go, and will investigate Qian Dongshun through the judicial department.

I asked how Yang Zhiping would be convicted if he didn't reconcile, Xu Jie said that they were all a group of minors, Yang Zhiping was the mastermind, and he would be sent to a correctional center for three months at most, while those accomplices and those who gave false testimony were estimated to pay some fines and be detained for half a month at most.

So light?

I wondered.

Xu Jie said that such a sentence is lighter, but what they are not unfavorable to is not this punishment, but that they will always leave this case record on the personal resume of the public security system, and there is such a stain, which will have a great impact on their future lives, so those parents want to reconcile, not that they can't afford to pay those compensation.

I hurriedly asked if I would leave any stains, Xu Jie said that they had all reconciled, and the court would soon notify the police station of the withdrawal of the complaint, what stains could be left? I finally stopped worrying in my heart.

When Xu Jie was about to leave, she said that she did what she should have done and got what she wanted, in fact, whether she reconciled or not did not have much impact on her, this time I did her a favor, and if there is something to sue her in the future, you can get half a discount.

Do you still have to ask for money? Can't continue to be free?

Phew......

I'm definitely not going to fight this bullshit lawsuit, and even though I'm the plaintiff this time, I still feel like a prisoner sitting in the courthouse. And in the past few days since I accused Yang Zhiping, I didn't have any thoughts about anything, and my mind was all about the lawsuit, which was a kind of torment, and I didn't want to do it again.

Xu Jie left, her father said that he wanted to invite her to dinner to express his gratitude, and Yang Xiuying also said that she would at least have a meal, but Xu Jie said that next time, she was going to take advantage of this holiday to go out and relax, and the plane was more than four o'clock in the afternoon. Since she was in a hurry, Dad didn't keep her.

When only people I knew were left, I asked my dad why he had agreed to reconcile. Dad said that other people's children are also children, if they really fall into any crime, then this life will be ruined, since they can be reconciled well, why do they have to make trouble to the point of being out of control, and be a man to leave a line, and see each other in the future.

I know that this is the honest blood flowing in my father's bones, my father is the kind of person who is ruthless, and would rather suffer some losses by himself, I remember that my father often said that it is a blessing to suffer losses.

But this set still works in the village, after all, the village is a bigger place, look down and don't look up, who has something going on, don't you have to help each other?

In this real snobbish city, this set does not work very well, because when I saw Yang Zhiping leave just now, Yang Zhiping's face clearly showed a sneer. This beam has been settled, reconciliation is enmity, not reconciliation is also enmity, if you suffer a loss, who will remember you? It is estimated that Yang Zhiping will be lucky that I will reconcile now, and I guess I will sneer behind my back and scold me for being a fool.

I don't blame my dad, he has his own ideas, but since I was a child, my dad has always thought about me first in everything he does, and it is the same now.

When I was about to get on the bus, my father said that I would invite us to have a good meal, Yang Xiuying did not agree, she said that it happened that my father brought a lot of local products from the village, so she went back to cook and eat by herself, in fact, Yang Xiuying knew that it was not easy for my father to make money, and gave her 5,000 yuan to treat Uncle Yong.

And Yang Xiuying asked my father and mother not to go back today, stay in the city for one night, tomorrow Qianqian and I will have a holiday, my cousin wants to go to the village to play for a few days, Yang Xiuying will drive us down.

Dad asked if he would disturb, Yang Xiuying said that they were all his own people, what did he disturb?

In fact, Yang Xiuying has never been so enthusiastic before, the last time my father came to the city was when I signed up, Yang Xiuying was too lazy to entertain, but after Uncle Yong's accident, Yang Xiuying knew what real family affection was.
