Who Made Him a Lawyer? Chapter 170 144: Breakthrough in the Case! 1987!

"Director Zhou will abandon the fake evidence and think of other plots."

Yang Ruoxi said.

"Then, what if, during the trial just now, the evidence was submitted?" Xu Liang asked again.

If the evidence had been submitted during the trial just now,

Zhao Yi would have imdiately adjourned the court and verified the evidence.

After verification, Director Zhou would be arrested, as he was involved in forging evidence, facing criminal consequences.

But the problem is.....

"Without Director Zhou, there would still be Director Liu and Director Zhang."

"People who would stop at nothing for money are never in short supply!"

Xu Liang stated firmly.

Without Director Zhou, Duan Jianhao could definitely find soone else to fill in!

Now that he knows information about Director Zhou, suddenly changing opponents would be more harmful than beneficial for him.

The most crucial thing is...

"Director Zhou is currently caught in the dilemma of proving himself."

"All his energy will be used to guard against the court, making him half-dead."

A glimr of sharp light flashed in Xu Liang's eyes, and he said bluntly:

"A living Director Zhou is hard to deal with, but a dead Director Zhou would just be replaced by others with strong abilities."

"And..."

"A half-dead Director Zhou is precisely the Director Zhou we need!"

He held the initiative.

Director Zhou could only be led by the nose!

Hearing this, Yang Ruoxi was greatly shocked. She swallowed, looking at him with admiration.

"Wow, you're really clever!"

She expressed her sincere admiration.

"Thank you for the complint."

Xu Liang teased as he packed up his things until one question from her made him pause.

"By the way, what should we do now?"

"We don't have to be as cautious as before, right?" Yang Ruoxi tentatively asked.

Last month, they dared not investigate anything for fear of being monitored by Director Zhou, who would then know their suspicions in advance.

Now, since the opponent will focus all efforts to deal with the court...

"I have a guess."

Xu Liang squinted his eyes.

"What guess?" Yang Ruoxi beca curious.

"Making those fake proofs without the school's cooperation is difficult. First, investigate the relationship between School No. 18 and the Duan Group." Xu Liang said.

The most important thing is...

Xu Liang's brows suddenly furrowed.

He vaguely guessed why Director Zhou initially tried to buy him off!

"While the other side is overwheld...."

"Let's investigate first!"

After speaking.

The two decisively packed up their things, swiftly evading the surrounding reporters.

The two left in a hurry.

...

...

anwhile.

In the court.

The trial was adjourned, but that didn't an the judges had nothing to do!

In an office.

The 'Jinjiang Hotel Body Falling·Case' judges ford a collegiate bench, continuously discussing.

"What do you say? How's the evidence verification going?"

"The investigation just began, these two lawyers are very crafty, each submitting evidence in court without sending any for prior review."

"What I an is, which side's statent do you think is false?"

"I don't know, it'll take two days..."

"..."

In the collegiate bench.

The judges anxiously analyzed the case.

During the trial just now, both Xu Liang and Director Zhou greeted each other earnestly!

But even with the intense case, they still couldn't tell who was telling the truth and who was lying.

"Old Zhao, say sothing!"

Finally unable to bear it, soone looked at Zhao Yi, knocked on the table, and spoke:

"How reliable do you think Director Zhou's alibi is?"

Zhao Yi ca back to his senses, pondered for a while, then shook his head.

"For now, I can't trust it at all."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded.

Director Zhou is suspected of colluding to make false evidence, it's perfectly normal not to believe even a single sentence!

As for...

"What about Plaintiff Xu Liang?" Soone asked again.

"He..."

Zhao Yi paused, then shook his head again.

Based on what he knew about Xu Liang,

The guy never plays by the legal rules!

Stuff like Director Zhou slapping a bank card in Xu Liang's face... he doesn't believe a word, and if he did, he'd be a fool!

Seeing this, the rest of the collegiate bench was stunned.

"Neither of their statents can be trusted!?"

"Did they co to court just to lie!?"

The other judges were dumbfounded.

They've seen interrogated people lie.

They've also seen one party forge fake evidence.

But this case... are both parties lying and fabricating evidence?

After hours of case discussion, both sides had exchanged thousands of words, yet not a single truth had been spoken!?

"I'm not sure, but overall, there's more suspicion on Director Zhou's side."

Zhao Yi shook his head, pondered for a mont, and then spoke:

"The other side is notoriously unscrupulous."

"We must first thoroughly examine the evidence submitted by Director Zhou."

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Having sothing to do is good; the fear is having nothing to do and feeling helpless!

Just as the eting was about to adjourn.

Zhao Yi suddenly paused and added:

"Inspect with focus!"

"Make sure to perform a focused inspection!"

Everyone nodded and imdiately took action.

As their orders were issued,

Director Zhou, who had just returned to the company and was preparing to discuss strategies with other lawyers, suddenly changed his complexion after receiving a ssage.

The judicial authorities had started rigorously scrutinizing his evidence!

The speed... was swift!

For a mont, Director Zhou couldn't even bother keeping track of Xu Liang; he devoted all his attention to dealing with the inspection from above.

...

...

That day.

Seven-thirty in the evening.

At the Conscience Law Firm on Hongfu Street, Hanhai City.

It was already dark outside.

Yet inside the firm, there was still one person present.

This person was Xu Liang.

Ever since returning to the law firm after court adjournnt, he didn't go out much, absorbed in the investigation.

Until...

The law firm's door was suddenly pushed open.

"Found it!"

"Duan Group donates money to support No. 18 High School every year!"

"The excellent students sponsored are provided with job placents by Duan Group after graduating from university."

"This cooperation started on June 1, 1987, and received much praise at the ti!"

Yang Ruoxi's voice suddenly sounded.

She was holding a newspaper, although its condition was neat, it was severely aged, and she was handling it with utmost care.

Xu Liang snapped back to reality and turned to look.

Yang Ruoxi spread the newspaper open and placed it on the table.

This was a newspaper photocopied from 1987, stored in the newspaper office.

The newspaper office archives every issue, and she had to rely on a lot of connections to find this copy.

And the front page of this 1987 local Hanhai newspaper...

Was shockingly a photo of the No. 18 High School principal shaking hands with a slender woman!

Upon seeing this photo, Xu Liang's pupils contracted; he stared intently at the woman.

"This woman is Duan Feipeng's mother."

"At that ti, Duan Group signed this charity contract with No. 18 High School."

Seeing his reaction, Yang Ruoxi thought he didn't recognize the person and reminded him.

"No, that's not it."

Xu Liang suddenly breathed heavily, his expression serious, as though he had seen sothing extraordinary.

"What is it? Duan Group's initial investnt was for this contract, right?"

"For the principal, it was an achievent; for Duan Group, a small amount of money could attract many talents in the future."

Yang Ruoxi spoke doubtfully.

But Xu Liang's focus had nothing to do with that!

"When was this photo taken!?"

Xu Liang's brow furrowed as he pointed at the slender woman in the color photo, speaking heavily.

"June 1, 1987, Children's Day, right after signing the contract," Yang Ruoxi replied, puzzled.

Hearing this.

Xu Liang smiled.

A smile erged on his face.

He had found the breakthrough point for the case...

"Do you still rember Duan Feipeng's file?" Xu Liang asked.

"Yes, he was born on July 12, 1987, now 17 years old, and still..."

Yang Ruoxi instinctively recited the file.

But just halfway through.

Xu Liang suddenly interrupted her.

"Knock knock!"

Xu Liang heavily tapped the woman's belly on the newspaper with his hand, speaking seriously:

"This newspaper was taken on June 1, 1987."

"Duan Feipeng was born on July 12, 1987, only a month's difference between the two!"

Xu Liang's eyes were deep.

As his words faded away.

Yang Ruoxi paused, then was shocked; she seed to understand his implication, staring hard at the woman's flat belly in the photograph.

If the photo is right, then Zhang Li on June 1, 1987, should have been... a nine-month pregnant woman!!!

Only then could she have given birth to Duan Feipeng in rely a month.

But in the photo, Zhang Li showed no signs of pregnancy?

Looking at the flat stomach.

Yang Ruoxi's mouth opened wide.

"If Duan Feipeng's birth date and the photo's date coincide, a question arises."

Xu Liang took a deep breath and raised a mind-boggling question.

"How did Zhang Li manage to..."

"Complete conception, gestation, and even childbirth within just a month?!"
