Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 330 He's Not a Lawyer! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]

Meanwhile, in the Supreme Court.

"You mean, he's going to appeal?"

"Correct."

"What are the grounds for appeal?"

"It seems that during the first instance, the evidence presented by the plaintiff was incomplete, which led to public opinion tarnishing the defendant's reputation. Therefore, the plaintiff took the initiative to appeal in order to clear the defendant's name."

"Ok?"

Inside the office.

Wang Yao listened to the voice beside him, his eyes filled with confusion.

He tilted his head, looked at the document, and his entire brain seemed to freeze, as if it had crashed.

What does it mean for the plaintiff to clear the defendant's name?
Oh, it's not like similar incidents haven't happened before. For example, in some cases of false accusations, the plaintiff might confess everything for various reasons.

But Xu Liang.
"This isn't a false accusation, so why is he appealing?"

Wang Yao murmured.

To be honest, he didn't think Xu Liang would be particularly kind in helping Zhu Haoyi and Li Yang.

Firstly, when it comes to cases brought by the opposing party, one can often stand on the side of "righteousness" and doesn't need to consider the feelings of the opponent.

Second
Regarding the other party's morality, Zhu Haoyi and Li Yang were smeared and slandered, yet Wang Yao dared to swear on his own reputation, and Xu Liang's first reaction was to celebrate instead of appealing!
His reputation is much more valuable than Xu Liang's; he is still quite credible.

"That's what the High Court thinks too."

The subordinate spoke up, then cautiously glanced at Wang Yao in the office.

"Wang Ting, how about it?"

"Don't refuse. The case filing division wants you to give me the case. Is this the dean's order?" Wang Yao said calmly.

The subordinate nodded.

"Yes, the president is planning to have you seconded to the High Court to serve as the presiding judge, in order to ensure that no other problems arise in the case."

Xu Liang is very bold.

This appeal is very strange. Even a fool could tell that Xu Liang must have come up with some crazy idea again!

We should at least invite a heavyweight to anchor the event.

It's not about ability, but the imposing presence of his position as the Chief Judge of the First Criminal Division of the Supreme People's Court. Looking at the whole country, that's standing at the very top of the judicial system!
Surely the other party can't just launch a surprise attack on Wang Yao's evidence and pull some tricks, can they?
"Why is it me?"

Wang Yao's lips twitched.

But then I thought about it again. There aren't many people in the Supreme Court who can hold things together, and I'm in the First Criminal Division, which is my specialty, so I do meet the requirements.

So Wang Yao waved his hand and said:
"Go ahead and get back to work. I understand."

The subordinate nodded, then turned and left.

As for Wang Yao
He sat in a chair, intending to write some materials, but his mind was in a jumbled mess. He wrote a few words and then got stuck, so he simply stopped writing and leaned back in his chair to start thinking.

Wang Yao watched this lawyer grow step by step from a junior lawyer into what he is today!

He was well aware of the young man's scheming nature.

"If it was a premeditated scheme, then the 47 million in compensation awarded in the first trial was definitely not his goal."

"Is the goal to get the defendant imprisoned?"

Wang Yao fell into deep thought.

"But if that's the case, why waste the opportunity of the first trial?"

"Why not just find the defendant criminally liable during the first instance trial? That way, even if they're not satisfied, they can appeal to the second instance. But now, the other party has squandered one opportunity and opted for a second instance trial."

"If the evidence he presents in the second trial is insufficient, then he'll have no chance!"

"So, why waste the first trial?"

After a long while, Wang Yao still couldn't figure out why Xu Liang had appealed.

But precisely because of this, he became more and more curious and wanted to find out the other party's true purpose!

Ultimately, he turned his attention to his daughter.

“Xiao Yang works at his law firm, so he should know something,” Wang Yao thought honestly.

At this point, he no longer cared about avoiding anything. He glanced at the wall clock and decisively clocked out.

Wang Yao has never liked working overtime. He has already worked hard when he was young, and now that he is old, he should enjoy his retirement!

Wang Yao felt that Wu Chengjun and Zhao Yi, who were forced to work hard, deserved it. They wasted their youth in their early years and were now being harassed by others in their later years.

Fortunately, I held a high enough position in my later years to live a peaceful life of working nine to five and clocking out.

Wang Yao rode his bicycle back to the apartment assigned to him by his work unit.

This is a residential building with decent interior decoration and an overall style that is somewhat high-end and luxurious.

The moment he stepped inside, Wang Yao shouted.

"Honey, honey!"

The voice was deep and resonant, and soon an echo came from it.

"What the hell?! Can't you have any manners?!"

A gentle yet disgruntled female voice rang out. Wang Yao turned his head and saw Yang Jing, his wife and Wang Chao and Yang Ruoxi's mother, standing at the kitchen doorway, wearing an apron and holding a spoon, looking at him.

Since Yang Ruoxi left Hanhai City, Yang Jing moved to Shangcheng, and the couple lived together on weekdays.

"What's wrong?" Yang Jing asked Wang Yao, puzzled.

Where's the lamb?

Wang Yao looked around and saw that there were two people inside the room.

One was Yang Jing, and the other was Wang Chao, who was lying on the sofa watching TV and chuckling to himself.

But Yang Ruoxi was nowhere to be seen, which immediately puzzled him.

"Little Sheep went to Professor Wu's courtyard house." Yang Jing turned and went back to the kitchen, saying nonchalantly as she cooked.

Upon hearing this, Wang Yao's heart skipped a beat, and then a hint of resentment appeared on his face as he muttered:
"Sigh, why aren't they even going home anymore?"

"This is clearly home."

The other party has been in Shangcheng for a long time, nearly two months, and has spent at least two-thirds of that time living in a courtyard house!

On the contrary, it's his own father's home that the other party only comes to stay when they feel he's a lonely old man.

Upon hearing this, Wang Chao, sitting on the sofa, turned around, looked at his father, and kindly comforted him:
"Dad, it's alright, I'll stay with you."

"roll!"

Wang Yao retorted directly with a single sentence.

He looked at Wang Chao impatiently, his palm slightly hot.

Although it has been almost two months, Wang Yao can still recall the scene when this kid led Liu Jinshui, bypassing the intermediate and higher courts, and directly brought him to the Supreme Court to file a complaint.
If all else fails, take them to the prosecutor's office or the police station!

So you insist on coming to the Supreme Court where your own father works, huh?!

You're the one who brought Liu Jinshui into the village!

Wang Chao, the "father," felt a little wronged.

"Get lost, get as far away as you can." Wang Yao rolled his eyes.

He immediately plopped down on the sofa and waited quietly.

He refused to believe that Yang Ruoxi would really let him become a lonely old man without ever coming to see him!
Wang Yao believed it.

For three days in a row, he didn't see Yang Ruoxi, and Wang Yao began to doubt his life.

until
8 month 9 day.

As Wang Yao clocked out of get off work, he pushed open the door.

To his astonishment, he saw a beautiful figure on the sofa, lying there watching TV without any regard for appearances, looking like a wriggling snail.

The other party was none other than Yang Ruoxi!
Yang Ruoxi lazily looked up and glanced at Wang Yao, who was immediately flattered.

Sure enough, my child still loves me; it's only been a week, and he only came home to visit me once a week!
Of course, Wang Yao didn't forget the important matter, so he sat down next to the other person.

"What's wrong?" Yang Ruoxi asked, her face showing confusion.

"That liar."

Wang Yao frowned and asked.

Four days have passed, and he still hasn't figured out what Xu Liang's real purpose in appealing is!
"What is that litigious lawyer trying to do by appealing to the second instance? Is there something fishy about Zhu Haoyi's case?!"

Wang Yao asked in confusion.

The other party must have known the whole story before the first trial ended, so why drag it out until the second trial?
Was it intentional, or was there another reason?
Yang Ruoxi asked in confusion, "You mean Xu Liang?"

Wang Yao nodded, expecting the other party to reply, but then...
Yang Ruoxi suddenly showed anger on her face and said angrily, "Xu Liangcai isn't a litigious lawyer!!!"

How dare you slander someone's innocence!?

"Dad, you're so annoying!"

Finished.

Yang Ruoxi got up angrily, went back to her room to change out of her pajamas, and then dressed up nicely in casual clothes before heading out.

"I'm not coming back tonight; I'm staying at Professor Wu's place."

The moment the sound faded, Yang Ruoxi closed the door.

Wang Yao was left sitting alone on the sofa, looking disheveled.

Is this...is this still his daughter?!
8 month 6 day.

Xu Liang did not stay at the courtyard house, but went to the National Security Bureau.

The National Security Bureau is preparing to arrest "Shao Si No. 1," who is implicated by the locator.

"Should we just arrest them directly? Don't we need to worry about their online or offline connections, or anything else?"

After reviewing the plan, Xu Liang felt that the other party's methods were simple and crude, lacking any planning, but that didn't bother him.
"As long as it works!"

“In the past, when we were gathering evidence, we would find someone to distract the other party and then sneak into their home to search it.”

"Although it lacks technical sophistication, it's incredibly easy to use!"

Inside the National Security Bureau, Zhang Tian checked his sidearm while grinning at Xu Liang. Xu Liang's lips twitched, but he didn't say anything.

Yes, the name of Guoan is so famous that many people think it's similar to a spy movie.

But in reality, this place places more emphasis on results.

As long as the result is good, the process doesn't matter. There may be intrigue, but it's far less efficient than being simple and straightforward!
"Shao Si No. 1 will be holding a meeting in the capital today, during which the police officer will be away from you for ten minutes."

"We'll just barge in and arrest them!"

While talking.

Zhang Tian played with the iron block in his hand.

He pulled with his left hand.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound rang out; it was indeed a brand-new pistol!

The evidence has been gathered, and the arrest warrant has been approved.

As for whether or not we should worry about the online and offline release of Shao Si No. 1
To put it simply, in terms of rank and position, there shouldn't be anyone in the entire Eastern Kingdom with a higher rank than the First Junior Master!

The other party has established a vast information relay network, and if nothing unexpected happens...
Once the other party is captured, the entire network can be wiped out instantly!
Upon hearing this, Xu Liang understood.

Just then, Zhang Tian suddenly threw something towards Xu Liang.

"Will it work?"

Xu Liang took it and found that what he held in his hand was a pistol.

No, it's not a pistol.

Zhang Tian grinned and said, "A stun gun won't kill anyone. As long as you don't shoot it at the head at close range, it's fine for your own safety."

"Of course, don't lose the gun. If you lose a gun in the upper city, even if it's a stun gun, I'll consider myself done for."

Xu Liang nodded, indicating that he understood.

Everyone was seen to be properly organized.

"Our role in this arrest is secondary; the main force will be the security department. Our target is the network of connections of the subordinates of the First Commander!"

"Do you understand? If you do understand."

Zhang Tian glanced around, then took a deep breath and said:

"action!"
