When there was a bustle downstairs, Lu Peiming was calling Midai Ono in the office. He felt bad when those reporters crowded into the courthouse, especially when he learned that they were all invited by Wei Dashao, presumably it was this gentleman who persuaded his sister to come and take Miss Seven to withdraw the lawsuit today.

"Now those two have come," Lu Peiming said into the microphone, "and they are being stopped downstairs by reporters for interviews." ”

Ono Meidai didn't ask what Qi Chuan meant and said directly: "When Miss Seven comes up, you tell her that because the case has been filed, you will not accept the withdrawal of the lawsuit." ”

"There is no such provision in the law, but I will tell Miss Seven so." Lu Peiming said worriedly, "But I'm afraid that Miss Seven will revise the complaint on the spot, delete the request to keep Yizhuang, and directly change it to an equal share of the inheritance." ”

"Her application to amend the complaint was rejected on the same grounds." "The final result of Consul Sukawa is to set up a third-party organization to supervise the use of the Yoshijo estate. ”

Lu Peiming was silent and said, "Got it." ”

After Ono Meidai hung up the phone, she reported the news to Qi Chuan Xun: "I heard that Wei Dashao returned home yesterday, presumably he persuaded Wei Jieling yesterday." ”

Qi Chuan Xun was silent for a moment: "Wei Yingguo has not moved for several days, I just met with Wei Jieling yesterday, and he immediately rushed over." ”

"Wei Yingguo and we are not of the same mind," Ono said immediately, "The consul should beware of him." ”

"He's only one heart with his money." Qi Chuan Shun sneered, "It's just a straw bale, there's no need to think too highly of him, to find out who he saw yesterday." ”

Ono Meidai's heart immediately lifted, she knew that Lu Peiming had gone to report to Wei Yingguo, if this matter was known by Qi Chuan Xun, she might not move Lu Peiming, but his authority as the president of the court was probably going to be completely hollowed out.

A person's name rushed to her mind, and Midai Ono didn't blink her eyes, and immediately said it: "Talk about competition." ”

Qi Chuan Shun looked up in surprise, and Ono Meidai said calmly: "The day after I went to invite Miss Seven to move out of the old mansion, it was the day before you met Wei Jieling, and she went to the Chaosheng Daily office to meet and talk about the competition. On the day you met Miss Seven, reporter Tan made an exclusive interview with Wei Yingguo, and no third person was present in that interview except for the two of them. ”

Sukawa Shun frowned and fell into deep thought.

"You said Tan-kun betrayed me?"

"I don't know, and I didn't mean to frame a reporter, but I'm telling the truth." Ono Meidai hesitated for a moment and decided to pour another barrel of oil on the fire, "I just remembered Ming Qiuxi from the Security Bureau before, he also talked about the reporter's report, and without informing you in advance, he directly took Yu Fangfei, the head of the Torture Section of the Security Bureau, to arrest someone, and let her kill people." ”

Qi Chuan Xun still didn't say anything, Tan Jing was a subordinate she valued and trusted, and she would not arrest him and torture him because of other people's words.

"I've never been at odds with journalists." Ono Medai took the initiative, "But this is not a personal conflict between me and him, the consul knows what Mei Dai is like." ”

"You don't think it's safe to talk about it," Sukawa said, "but you never said why, why do you think he's unsafe?" ”

Ono Meidai replied: "He should not enter the consul's office, you can use him, but you can't trust him too much, consul, you are not only in charge of the coastal city, you are also in charge of the entire intelligence network in East China, your office should be the most secret, you can't let Chinese in at will in order to show trust." ”

Qi Chuan Xun smiled slightly: "Then what about Xie Liunian, do you trust him?" ”

"Mr. Wang of Nanjing, whom Director Xie is loyal to, shares common interests with us." Ono said, "If he wants to protect Mr. Wang's interests, then he has to defend us." ”

Sukawa looked at her: "So...... How do you know that Director Xie and Mr. Wang are of the same mind? ”

Ono was stunned and didn't speak for a long time.

Sukawa Shun smiled: "Of course I understand Mei Dai's feelings of thinking about the empire, but don't doubt a person at will, let alone trust a person at will." ”

She said, bowed her head and signed a document, and handed it to Ono Meidai: "In this Wei family case, the result we want is fame and fortune, and if you think about it carefully, you will find that whether Wei Jieling withdraws the lawsuit or amends the complaint, it will not prevent us from getting the result we want." ”

"Now that the result is doomed, these small actions in the middle, those clowns who try to jump off the beam, don't really need to pay too much attention."

Newspapers throughout Binhai reported that Wei Jieling had asked to withdraw the lawsuit and instead divide the property equally with her brothers and nephews. But Qi Chuanshun once again gave Tan Jing an exclusive news: the consulate allocated an apartment to the clansmen who were abandoned by the Wei family, and provided them with jobs and arranged for their children to study in schools in the Japanese jurisdiction.

Chaosheng Daily took a huge photo of the Wei family moving into their new home, devoting an entire page to showing their happy mood for the rest of their lives after the disaster, and recording in detail their gratitude to Consul General Sukawa Shun.

The whole piece of the report is singing the praises of virtue, which is not like an article written by Tan Jing.

He was called to the president's office again, and Yue Shixing was reading the report repeatedly, and reprimanded him bitterly: "Young man, you must cherish your feathers, doing 10,000 good things may not be effective, but one bad thing is enough to destroy the good reputation you have painstakingly built up in the first half of your life." ”

Tan Jing didn't dare to look him in the eyes, nor did he dare to defend himself: "I was wrong." ”

"You're perfunctory to me." Yue Shixing said, "You didn't send this article to me, you said it was too late, it hasn't been written yet, you are going to send it to the printing factory overnight, so as not to publish it today." You're taking advantage of my trust in you to avoid me. ”

Tan Jing still kept his head down and didn't dare to answer. The president's reprimands were all right, but he had to do it.

"Give me a reason," Yue said, "why are you writing this report?" ”

"The whole Binhai is reporting on Wei Jieling's withdrawal of the lawsuit, and I don't want to be like them."

"Sensationalism!" Yue Shixing was angry, "Just to make a new intention, so go to sing praises to others?" ”

Tan Jing had nothing to say, so he could only continue to apologize: "I was wrong." ”

Yue Shixing knocked on the table angrily: "You tell me the truth, Xijiang, why are you writing this report?" Do you have something unspeakable? ”

Tan Jing opened his mouth: "No." ”

Yue Shixing didn't seem to hear this, he stood up, propped his hands on the desk, and approached Tan Jing's face: "You were threatened?" ”

"Nope." Tan Jing denied, "I was confused for a while, president, I was wrong." ”

Yue Shixing suddenly drank: "Are you going to surrender to the Japanese?" ”

Tan Jing immediately jumped up: "I didn't!" ”

"Then why are you writing this?" Yue Shixing's voice was raised higher than his, "Did I tell you not to follow up on this news anymore, you take my words as a deaf ear?" ”

"I was wrong, President, I was wrong." Tan Jing's head lowered again, "I just wanted to try this news to see if I could make the Qichuan Shun plan fall through." ”

Yue Shixing looked at him in disbelief: "You persuaded Miss Wei Qi to withdraw the lawsuit?" ”

"Yes." Tan Jing replied clearly, "I persuade the Wei family brothers and sisters to reconcile. ”

Yue Shixing's brows tightened, he gasped, sat back in his chair, and muttered: "In other words, yesterday's news was concocted by you, so you want to post today's report, are you trying to protect yourself from the Japanese from targeting you?" ”

What he was thinking about was what Tan Jing didn't think, but this explanation obviously made sense, so he nodded and admitted: "Yes." ”

Yue Shixing began to look at him with complicated eyes again, but this time it was very short, only a few seconds, he closed his eyes and rubbed his temples tiredly: "You have this plan, why didn't you tell me in advance?" ”

"I'm afraid the president will stop me." Tan Jing said, "I'm afraid that you will be involved in trouble." ”

"You'll think about me." Yue Shixing snorted lightly, "You go out, I will call the director of the printing factory, and in the future, your manuscript will definitely not be reported without my signature." ”

Tan Jing knew that he was angry, and now no matter what he said, it would be in vain, so he didn't protest, just said "I'm sorry" and quit the president's office.

Yue Shixing was still spreading out in his chair, rubbing his temples. The phone on his desk suddenly rang, startling Yue Shixingsheng, and he picked up the receiver and put it to his ear.

A smiling male voice came from the earpiece: "President Yue, how is it?" ”

"He planned it." Yue Shixing said, "He did this and wrote this report. ”

"It's a shame." The other party's voice still sounded smiling, and there was no feeling of regret at all, "Please don't be too angry, president." ”

"I know," Yue Shi said, "do you have anything else?" ”

"Nope." The other party said, "It's just that the court will announce the rejection of Wei Jieling's application for withdrawal this afternoon, and I also ask President Yue to pay attention to talking about reporters." ”

Yue Shixing was silent for a long time, did not answer, and hung up the phone directly.

Lu Peiming's rejection and withdrawal of the lawsuit has received wide attention from various media, but the reports and comments on this matter are all gentle. They are not stupid, they know who supports and controls the Lu family.

The court opened on the original date, but neither the plaintiff nor the defendant came. Wei Jieling's brother and sister didn't seem to take the court into account at all, and only deigned to tell the court that she was going to withdraw the lawsuit, and then no matter how the court responded, they all went home by themselves, closed the door and solved the conflicts in their own homes.

The first trial failed, and Lu Peiming immediately issued another court summons to the two and set a second trial date.

And the Wei family still has no response.

It was the Japanese consulate that broke the deadlock, and Sukawa intervened in the case in a high-profile manner, holding a press conference to say that the consulate would fully support the abandoned Wei clan to defend their own interests. Soon, the Wei family, who moved into the new apartment, elected their own representatives, and the consulate hired a well-known lawyer for them with a high salary, and directly sued Wei Jieling and Wei Yingguo's siblings, as well as the entire Wei family's descendants.
