Chapter 10 Double - kill, the defendant's lawyer is also sent to jail!

"Death... penalty!"

In the courtroom, the presiding judge announced the verdict. He Tianyi collapsed on the ground as if all his strength had been drained, and yellow, stinky liquid flowed out from the hem of his trousers.

"You bad thing, you know what fear is now!"

"Regret it now? Too late!"

"Evildoers will get their just deserts. It's not that they won't be punished, but the time has not come! Lin Chuan did a great job. If I have a lawsuit to file in the future, I will definitely find you."

"Now Lin Chuan is the strongest lawyer in my mind! No one else can compare."

"This is a victory, right? Oh, my God, Lin Chuan, this intern lawyer has really created a miracle!"

"Ms. Zheng, you can leave in peace. Lawyer Lin Chuan has punished the murderer."

...

In the live - streaming room, the audience were happily typing in their comments.

However, some were happy while others were sad. He Tianyi was completely defeated. He sat paralyzed on the ground, staring blankly into the distance, with tears sliding down from the corners of his eyes one after another. Obviously, these were tears of remorse.

"Since the murderer has been sentenced, can the court session be over now?"

The onlookers in the courtroom whispered to each other.

"The defendant He Tianyi is sentenced to death. This court session is over. Please everyone—"

Presiding Judge Qi Jun was about to announce the end of the court session when Lin Chuan suddenly spoke up:

"Wait a minute!"

"Our second demand is to sentence the defendant's lawyer Zhang Changming to more than three years in prison and revoke his lawyer's practice qualification."

Hiss - was it going to send the other side's lawyer to jail too?

There were hisses all over the place.

The defendant Zhang Changming was suddenly shocked: "Lin Chuan, you really want to be ruthless!" "Isn't it just taking over your position?" "Is it necessary to be so petty?" Zhang Changming muttered in a low voice. What was bound to come had finally arrived. Lin Chuan had said from the beginning that he had three demands:

Section 14

The first demand was to sentence the defendant He Tianyi to death, and now the court had announced the verdict. And the second demand was to send Zhang Changming to jail.

"Since... in this case, then the plaintiff's lawyer, please state your accusation."

Presiding Judge Qi Jun was sweating in his palms. In fact, he was even more panicked than Zhang Changming. Because if Lin Chuan got rid of Zhang Changming, it would be his turn next!

"I accuse Zhang Changming, as a legal professional, of crossing the legal bottom line and exploiting legal loopholes."

"The 2020 He Tianyi arson case was the one he defended."

"At that time, the court's verdict was that He Tianyi would be sent to a juvenile detention center for two years of re - education through labor."

"But through the connivance of He Xiao, He Tianyi was released from prison ahead of time and changed his appearance completely."

"And it was Zhang Changming's idea to change his appearance completely."

"As a professional lawyer, he was familiar with legal provisions and knew that only by changing his name could He Xiaolong live a normal life outside."

"And."

"Zhang Changming knew He Tianyi's personality and that he might violate the law in the future."

"Therefore."

"He postponed He Tianyi's birth date on his ID card by two years."

"The purpose was to let the 'get - out - of - jail - free card' for minors stay in He Tianyi's hands for two more years."

Lin Chuan pointed his finger at Zhang Changming like a sword: "You're talking nonsense!"

Zhang Changming slammed the table excitedly, with veins bulging on his neck: "Damn it, Lawyer Zhang Changming cursed! Did you hear that?" "It doesn't matter if we lost the lawsuit. Lin Chuan is accusing him of a crime. Even Bodhisattva would scold two words of Chinese essence." "Hahaha, being cornered by an intern lawyer, no wonder he curses his mother!" "It's over. Lawyer Zhang, who is ranked among the top three in Luzhou, has lost his integrity in his later years." "Actually, there's not much to see. In the courtroom, whoever loses his composure first loses. Lawyer Zhang has lost his composure, and it won't be long before he loses the case."

The laymen are just looking for entertainment, while the insiders are looking at the essentials. Those sitting in the first row of the spectator area were all colleagues in the Luzhou lawyers' circle. When they heard Zhang Changming cursing loudly, they already knew that the outcome of this lawsuit was decided.

"Cough cough!"

"Be quiet!"

"Defendant's lawyer Zhang Changming, please calm down."

"The courtroom is a solemn and sacred place. You can't curse. Use civilized language."

Presiding Judge Qi Jun waved his hand downward.

"Presiding Judge, I'm sorry. I was just too excited just now."

"The plaintiff's lawyer slandered me in court and made me lose my reason."

"It's like this..."

"Although in 2020, I did participate in the court session as He Tianyi's defense lawyer."

"I admit that."

"But."

"All the things that the plaintiff's lawyer said later about violating the legal bottom line, I didn't do a single one!"

"It's all baseless lies and slander."

Although Zhang Changming was flustered, his legal awareness as a lawyer was still there. He knew that the evidence Lin Chuan listed just now to target him was very difficult to collect. For example, the ID card he arranged for He Tianyi. At that time, he only pointed out this way, and the specific implementation process was handed over to He Xiao to bribe and take care of. Therefore, no matter how they investigated, they couldn't find any evidence against him.

However, just when Zhang Changming still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, Lin Chuan poured cold water on him directly: "Presiding Judge, members of the jury."

"Do you know why Zhang Changming postponed He Tianyi's age by two years?"

"Why not one year?"

"Why not three years?"

"Why exactly two years?"

Lin Chuan made a show of suspense, which aroused the interest of the audience and the live - streaming viewers. "Plaintiff's lawyer, please speak frankly."

Although Qi Jun and Zhang Changming were in the same boat and had both provided He Tianyi with some unorthodox help, he knew nothing about this. "Because there is a contract between Zhang Changming and He Xiao."

"The content of the contract is:"

"From 2020 to 2024, if He Tianyi has any legal problems, Zhang Changming must make sure to cover them up."

"At least he can't let He Tianyi go to jail."

"After 2024, according to He Xiao's plan, He Tianyi will go to the United States to study business in a business school and change his nationality."

"And the offer made by He Xiao was an annual salary of five million yuan to hire Zhang Changming as the legal advisor of Anxin Monitoring Group, with the attorney's fees calculated separately."

"With such a rich reward, Zhang Changming didn't refuse."

"After careful consideration, he decided to postpone He Tianyi's age on his ID card by two years."

"Because."

"The birth date on the ID card can only be postponed by two years. By 2024, He Tianyi will just turn eighteen."

"That is to say, during this period, He Tianyi has always been a minor."

"As long as he has this 'get - out - of - jail - free card' for minors, Zhang Changming believes that with his judicial level, no matter what kind of lawsuit he handles, he won't let He Tianyi go to jail."

Lin Chuan explained the reasons one by one, and everyone in the room suddenly realized: "As for the evidence."

"As a star lawyer in the circle, Zhang Changming is familiar with legal provisions. Of course, he won't take risks himself. So all the illegal things were left to He Xiao to do."

"He is only responsible for making plans."

"In this way, even if things come to light, there won't be any stains on him."

"Lawyer Zhang Changming is an old fox. When he steals a chicken, he won't forget to wipe his footprints in the snow."

At this point, Lin Chuan looked at Zhang Changming. The moment their eyes met, a barely noticeable smile appeared on Zhang Changming's lips. Yes, everything Lin Chuan said was true. But so what? Facts without evidence are like the moon reflected in the lake. It's impossible to tell whether they are true or false.

However, just when Zhang Changming was secretly pleased with himself, Lin Chuan spoke again. This time, his smile disappeared in a flash. "Unfortunately, Lawyer Zhang Changming was too clever for his own good."

"The most original evidence."

"Isn't it that contract?"

"I guess you haven't destroyed this contract yet because you want to wait until 2024 to receive all the bribe money before taking action."

"And."

"If I'm not wrong, it's still lying in the safe in your office now, right?"

After the words fell -

Zhang Changming was like being paralyzed by acupuncture. It took him ten seconds to come back to his senses. Then he started cursing loudly: "You little rascal, you rifled through my safe when you were interning in Xinyang!"
