The second trial is finally over, and for the Dongzhou Court Executive Bureau, Liao Wenchang's refusal to execute the case can barely be regarded as a victory.

However, Chen Molei was not happy at all, because Liao Wenchang had been stubbornly resisting from beginning to end, and did not explain the whereabouts of his hidden property, even a penny. Before that, the people of the Executive Directorate were busy, and at most they only pulled back three car security doors.

According to the trial process, after the trial, the members of the collegial panel must walk out of the courtroom before others can leave, but it is this time difference that when Chen Molei chased him out of the courtroom, Qin Huaiyuan was already gone.

It seems that Qin Huai is in a hurry. Chen Molei just wanted to continue chasing, but at this time, Kong Shangwu ran over: "Chen Ju, Gu Shaokang and Luo Xiaochuan are still in the courtroom, should you put these two people in the detention room first?" The clerk of the Criminal Chamber said that they had a case of illegal detention to be heard in the Criminal Division, and that Trial Chamber 1 would be used in the next session. ”

"Okay, then let's get to the detention cell first." Chen Molei said: "I'll call Zheng Xudong and ask him to arrange for someone to come and take him away."

Also, don't forget to ask the clerk of the criminal court for a copy of the trial transcript so that the people from the Public Security Bureau can take it with you. With a transcript, it will be more convenient for them to understand the facts of the case. After speaking, he called Zheng Xudong.

After Zheng Xudong briefly inquired about the situation, he promised to send someone over immediately to take Gu Shaokang and Luo Xiaochuan away.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Molei said to Kong Shangwu: "I'll leave it to you here." I'll have to go find Dean Qin. With that, he hurried away.

When he was about to arrive at the door of the dean's office, Chen Molei caught up with Qin Huaiyuan.

Without waiting for him to speak, Qin Huaiyuan guessed his thoughts: "Needless to say, I know what you want to say, and I also know what the verdict of Liao Wenchang's case means to the Executive Board." But as you can see in the trial just now, this verdict is not so easy to write, it can be said that the time is tight and the task is heavy. So, I'm afraid I won't dare to give you this package ticket......"

Seeing Chen Molei's froze expression of loss in an instant, he couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I won't tease you." Since I promised you, I will definitely do it.

On the road just now, I discussed with Xu Tiancheng and Dai Jie. With half an hour left before leaving work at noon, we first deliberated on the preliminary conviction and sentencing opinions. After lunch, we immediately split up to write the verdict, with the two of us writing the facts and I writing the reasoning part, and then summarizing and sorting them out.

In this way, we can get the verdict out as soon as possible and complete the service as soon as possible.

I went back to the office to drink a sip of water, and then I went to the conference room of the criminal court to discuss the case with them. ”

Although it was a false alarm, although Qin Huaiyuan made a guarantee, Chen Molei knew that this verdict was not easy to write at all, and he asked with concern: "Then, can I do something for you?" ”

Qin Huaiyuan thought for a while and said, "Don't say it, there is really something you need to do." ”

"What's the matter? You said. Chen Molei immediately asked.

Qin Huaiyuan patted Chen Molei on the shoulder and said seriously: "I need to be quiet, absolutely quiet!" So, from now on, please disappear from my eyes immediately! Don't let me see you again until the verdict is written! With that, he turned around and left.

Chen Molei looked at Qin Huaiyuan's back in a daze, and said to himself, "What do you mean by this? Am I that annoying? ”

In the detention area next to the first courtroom, Gu Shaokang and Luo Xiaochuan were put into a detention cell by the bailiffs. Unexpectedly, the two people who were incompatible just now are chatting now.

Kong Shangwu came back after copying the trial transcript, and when he saw Gu Shaokang and Luo Xiaochuan talking, he immediately stopped him: "You two, stay honest and don't talk!" ”

Luo Xiaochuan glanced at Kong Shangwu: "Why don't you let us talk?" ”

Kong Shangwu said: "Just because you are a criminal suspect, according to the law, in order to prevent collusion, you cannot communicate with each other. ”

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." Luo Xiaochuan laughed contemptuously and said, "Before the public security organ officially opened a criminal case, we were not criminal suspects. So, you'd better find a separate reason. ”

Kong Shangwu was speechless when he was refuted, and he snorted angrily and went out.

Gu Shaokang saw that Luo Xiaochuan had leveled Kong Shangwu in just a few words, and said with some sighs: "Brother Luo is really eloquent, no wonder Liao Wenchang's wife is thousands of miles away to invite you from Shanghai to Dongzhou." ”

Luo Xiaochuan smiled bitterly: "So what? In the end, it was not planted in this small county town. ”

Gu Shaokang showed a hint of apology on his face: "Brother Luo isn't blaming me, right?" To be honest, I don't want to be untrustworthy, but the risk of your plan is a bit big. I thought about it and thought it was better not to take this risk, after all, this is not an ordinary civil case, but a criminal case, and if you don't get it right, you will go to jail. So, be considerate. ”

Luo Xiaochuan sighed: "Now that it's over, what's the use of me blaming you?" Anyway, I can't keep my job as a lawyer, so let's think about what to do in the future. ”

Gu Shaokang smiled: "It's gold that always shines." With Brother Luo's ability, are you still worried that you won't be able to find a job in the future? ”

He hesitated for a moment and said, "If Brother Luo is interested, it is better to stay and help me and be my legal adviser."

There is no comparison between this small place in Dongzhou and Shanghai, but I can assure you that as long as you are willing to stay and help me, you will definitely make more money here than you used to.

Although I am not a huge businessman or a huge rich, I still have this strength. ”

Luo Xiaochuan looked at Gu Shaokang a little inexplicably: "Kang Ye is not taking pity on me, right?" ”

Gu Shaokang shook his head and said, "No, no, no, don't misunderstand Brother Luo, I really like my brother's ability." Just from how you behaved in court, I knew I was right. Believe me, I sincerely extend an invitation to you. ”

Luo Xiaochuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you Kang Ye for your love, but I still have some things to deal with, and I'm afraid I won't consider your invitation in the short term." ”

Gu Shaokang was very disappointed in his heart, but he had a smile on his face: "It's okay, since Brother Luo still has something, let's deal with those things first." Taking advantage of this time, Brother Luo can also think about it.

I hereby declare in advance that this commitment I have made to you is valid for a long time, and as long as my business is not yellow, I will welcome you whenever you come. ”

After speaking, he changed the topic again: "By the way, Brother Luo, do you say that we meet the conditions for bail?" ”

Luo Xiaochuan said without hesitation: "It's not a big problem, I'm still sure of this." ”

Gu Shaokang wanted to take the opportunity to win over Luo Xiaochuan and said, "Brother Luo, in order to show my sincerity, I will pay your bail, and you should be called a friend." ”

Luo Xiaochuan politely declined Gu Shaokang and said, "Kang Ye is too polite. As the saying goes, I don't get anything to lose, I have always eaten according to my ability, and I am not used to receiving favors from others. Besides, although I am not as rich as Kang Ye, I can still afford this money. ”

"No, no, no, it's not a favor." Gu Shaokang hurriedly explained: "This time, I can't stand you, even if you give me a chance and let me make some amends to you." ”

Gu Shaokang's words have been said very clearly, the so-called payment of bail for Luo Xiaochuan is actually equivalent to giving the money to Luo Xiaochuan in vain. Because when the deposit was paid, it was paid in Luo Xiaochuan's name, and when the deposit was returned, it was naturally returned to Luo Xiaochuan.

Luo Xiaochuan is not stupid, he knows the truth that eating people is soft and has short hands, if he accepts this benefit, it will be difficult to refuse Gu Shaokang's invitation. In addition, judging from the fact that Gu Shaokang defected in court, it is difficult to say whether Gu Shaokang is reliable.

But on the other hand, this is not a way out. Therefore, Luo Xiaochuan has always left room for speaking, and did not embarrass Gu Shaokang too much.

Nearly 20 minutes later, four police officers from the Public Security Bureau rushed over and took Gu Shaokang and Luo Xiaochuan away along with copies of the trial transcripts.

By the time I finished lunch, it was already half past 12 noon. Chen Molei was lying on the sofa in the office, unable to sleep, always thinking about what to do next in the Yongchang Company case, where Liao Wenchang's personal property would be hidden, and how to find a breakthrough.

He thought about it for a long time and decided to give it a try on Luo Xiaochuan: Liao Wenchang's mouth can't be pried open, but Luo Xiaochuan is not necessarily, although he is Liao Wenchang's defense lawyer, but in the final analysis, this case has no personal interest in him, and it is impossible for him to be a lawyer in the future, so there is no need to be a backer for Liao Wenchang.

However, Chen Molei is still a little worried. With Luo Xiaochuan's wit, he may have guessed that Gu Shaokang's rebellion before the battle was his ghost behind his back, if Luo Xiaochuan held a grudge against him because of this, I am afraid he would not say anything.

But no matter what, Chen Molei felt that it was still necessary to give it a try.

As soon as he went to work in the afternoon, Chen Molei went to the Public Security Bureau.

When he arrived, Zheng Xudong told him that the interrogation of Gu Shaokang and Luo Xiaochuan had ended, and the two were checking the interrogation records. But these two men were difficult to deal with, and they only confessed to perjury, and nothing else. Especially that Luo Xiaochuan, as long as the questions asked by the police handling the case were a little more in-depth, he said that the police were suspected of inducing confessions, which made the police very passive.

Speaking of this, Zheng Xudong sighed helplessly: "The vast majority of current suspects don't cry when they don't see the coffin, and we have long been used to situations like them." ”

Chen Molei proposed that he wanted to meet Luo Xiaochuan alone.

Zheng Xudong called the police handling the case to confirm, and then said to him: "Luo Xiaochuan just finished checking the transcript. Let's go, I'll take you there. ”

From Zheng Xudong's office to the case handling area, there are five floors apart. On the way, Zheng Xudong told Chen Molei that Gu Shaokang and Luo Xiaochuan both put forward a request for bail pending trial.

Chen Molei had expected this and asked, "Then what is your opinion?" ”

"What can I do? Luo Xiaochuan is a legal expert, I don't want him to grab any tricks. Zheng Xudong said: "By the way, that Gu Shaokang is quite interesting, he not only wants to help Luo Xiaochuan pay the bail, but also wants Luo Xiaochuan to stay as a guest, begging our police to help convey it, I really don't know what he thinks." ”

Chen Molei guessed that Luo Xiaochuan was a proud person, and said, "Luo Xiaochuan shouldn't have agreed, right?" ”

Zheng Xudong was stunned for a moment: "I really let you say it." Luo Xiaochuan said that he received his wishes, but in vain, he had to rush back to Shanghai, and while his lawyer's certificate had not been revoked, he handled the case in his hand as much as possible. ”

While talking, the two arrived at the case handling area.

The door of the case handling area is a password door, Zheng Xudong pressed a few buttons, and the door slowly opened.

Zheng Xudong led Chen Molei to the interrogation room where Luo Xiaochuan was, only to see Luo Xiaochuan sitting in the interrogation chair, handcuffed on his hands, and opposite him, there were two policemen, an old man and a young man.

Zheng Xudong briefly explained a few words to the two policemen, and then took the two out with him.

There were only two people left in the room, Chen Molei and Luo Xiaochuan.

Chen Molei wanted to have a casual chat to ease the atmosphere, but Luo Xiaochuan went straight to the point: "You are Director Chen Molei Chen of the Dongzhou Court Executive Bureau." As soon as I arrived in Dongzhou, I heard about your name. I know why you came to me and what you want to ask. I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, though, because I know very little information. ”

Chen Molei pulled a chair and sat down in front of Luo Xiaochuan: "I have already thought of this, Liao Wenchang will not reveal too much information to you." After all, the fewer people who know about concealing property, the safer it is.

But I still want you to tell me everything you know. It's helping us as well as yourself.

We are all lawyers, so I don't need to say more about this. ”

"Of course I understand what you mean, and I also want to reduce my legal responsibility, but I really have very limited information." Luo Xiaochuan said helplessly: "Although I have not been in contact with Liao Wenchang for a long time, I can see that this person is not only selfish, but also calculating.

Since he would rather go to prison than confess the whereabouts of his hidden property, he must have made a good plan. As for what exactly he was going to do, I don't know.

If you had to ask me to provide any information, I would only be able to make a personal guess. ”

Chen Molei was not discouraged, and said: "If you are willing to say, I would like to hear your speculation, maybe it will help us find Liao Wenchang's hidden property." At that time, the court will also consider your sentencing in this regard. ”

"Since you want to hear it, I'll tell you about it. If there's anything wrong with what I'm saying, you'll treat it as if I didn't say it. When it came to the analysis of the case, Luo Xiaochuan immediately entered the state: "From the analysis of probability, I am more inclined to Gu Shaokang's statement, that is, Liao Wenchang used Gu Shaokang's debit card to hide 10 million yuan of property, otherwise, he would not have given Gu Shaokang the 10 million yuan IOU."

As for where the 10 million yuan is now, I don't know.

However, I guess that the reason why Liao Wenchang would rather go to prison than confess his hidden property should not be for himself, but for his family.

In the past, I have defended several stubborn corrupt officials who refused to give an account of the whereabouts of the stolen money in order for their families to live a worry-free life abroad and for their children to receive a better education abroad.

This is a family culture that is prevalent among corrupt officials – sacrificing oneself to protect one's family.

It is precisely because of this family culture that they not only have no guilt, but will feel at ease, and even feel that they are quite great.

I think that Liao Wenchang should have the same account as them in his heart. ”

Chen Molei thought that Luo Xiaochuan's words were very reasonable, and at the same time, he also found a glimmer of hope: "Is there any basis for what you say?" ”

"Sort of." Luo Xiaochuan said: "Liao Wenchang has a son who goes to college, you know? ”

Chen Molei nodded: "I know, it seems to be a sophomore." ”

Luo Xiaochuan shook his head slightly: "It seems that your work is still not careful enough." I'm a junior and I'm still in the UK.

His son is studying three books, which is the School of International Exchange, and he studied in China for the first two years and abroad for the last two years. This is his son's first year in the UK.

Think about it, if Liao Wenchang confessed all his hidden assets, would his son still be able to study in the UK? ”

Chen Molei asked curiously, "How do you know these things?" ”

"It's kind of luck." Luo Xiaochuan said: "As a parent, you will have a special relationship with the education of your children, especially the mother, and in this regard, Liao Wenchang's wife is no exception.

Once, I accidentally talked to her about education, and while chatting, I talked about his son, and I accidentally learned about these things from her. And in her, I also see this family culture. ”

Chen Molei sighed, and said with some sadness and indignation: "For the sake of your own small family, you can ignore the interests of others and society, and ignore the bottom line of law and morality, what kind of culture is this?" ”

"If you think culture is inaccurate, I'll correct it and call it a concept." Luo Xiaochuan said meaningfully: "The difficulty of your court's enforcement is also caused by this kind of thinking to a large extent. Because this belief is widespread and deep-rooted, your path is destined to be difficult. ”

Chen Molei didn't expect Luo Xiaochuan to be young and young, and he could see the problem so thoroughly. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a trace of tragedy in his heart, saying: "If this concept and this phenomenon are allowed to develop, everyone will be suspicious of each other and everyone will be in danger, then what progress will our society talk about, and what development and future will our country talk about?" ”

Luo Xiaochuan was suddenly stunned, he hadn't heard this kind of thing for a long time. In his memory, the last time he heard such a voice seemed to be in a university class, and after entering the society, this voice has been buried by all kinds of noisy and noisy sounds.

Perhaps it was because he was aroused the kindness buried in his heart, or maybe he wanted to try his best to reduce his responsibility, he decided to tell Chen Molei another thing, something that almost made Chen Molei's jaw drop.
