Who Made Him a Lawyer? Chapter 309 - 216: Reporters Hunting for Explosive News! [4/

Zhang Tao’s gaze was steady, his words filled with persuasion.

Though sitting on the steps now, looking sowhat solitary and unkempt, his logical speech starkly contrasted with his appearance.

"I’ve inquired about this case, accidental death, work injury compensation case."

"Civil case, aside from us and a few other reporters attracted by Brother Pian’s na, otherwise... no one cares at all!"

Zhang Tao’s eyes suppressed extre excitent, he clenched his fists, unable to restrain himself from wanting to report in court.

As for ’Brother Pian’... naturally refers to Xu Liang!

No other reason.

Li Ye found that no matter how he photographed the other party, the other party was extrely photogenic, especially the impassioned presence in court, every casual shot had a sentint that could stir others!

"But... but the first trial is over... the judge ruled for compensation...."

Li Ye weakly said.

"Precisely because it ruled for compensation, we should be here even more!"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Tao’s gaze focused, and he spoke, defying common sense:

"From the first trial, who won based on the result?"

Li Ye instinctively said, "The plaintiff side, Brother Pian."

"Who initiated the second trial?" Zhang Tao asked again.

"Also...."

Speaking, Li Ye suddenly realized and was stunned.

If the first trial was Xu Liang’s win...

Then why would the other party initiate the second trial for no reason!?

This isn’t Sun Quan and Zheng i’s case.

The judge even imposed extraordinary fines, you’ve already won, why appeal the second trial!?

In an instant, Li Ye felt a chill down his spine.

"Based on my understanding of Brother Pian...." Zhang Tao’s eyes revealed wisdom, he flashed a confident gaze:

"There must be sothing hidden, unknown!"

"Old Li, in the Sun Quan and Duan Feipeng case we only got a taste, in the Sunzhou steel case we didn’t even sip the soup, are you content? I’m not! So for this case now...."

"I want to feast on the at!"

Moreover, as the second trial is the final judgnt, therefore...

It’s at the level where the two of us swallow the whole table of delicacies!!!

"I understand." Li Ye was instantly enlightened, his mind clear.

Just as he excitedly wanted to ask more.

In a trance, a desolate figure broke into his peripheral vision.

This person’s eyes were bleary, skin rough and dull, eyes devoid of any vitality, walking with a slight daze.

And this person was...

"Cheng Jia?"

Zhang Tao paused, a na popped into his mind.

He had seen Cheng Jia from Jiang City before, specially went to the court for an interview and saw the photo.

Just...

"Why is he in such bad shape?"

Zhang Tao suddenly frowned, he examined Cheng Jia before him, just stood up, about to step forward but froze, with suspicion.

This person was indeed Cheng Jia, there’s no mistake.

Only, Cheng Jia’s current state was utterly appalling!

The other seed to be under intense fatigue, yet hadn’t slept for a day and night, his hand carrying the briefcase was limp, legs weak.

This scene directly made Zhang Tao hesitate.

And precisely this hesitation led to realization, only when the other had already vanished into Qingshi City Interdiate Court.

Watching the direction of disappearance, Zhang Tao and Li Ye were stunned again and again.

"Where’s Zhao Hailong!?" Zhang Tao suddenly asked, bewildered.

They had been waiting at the court entrance since eight in the morning, impossible to miss anyone!

But... with Cheng Jia entering the court already, the trial imminent, where did Zhao Hailong go!?

"Did I overlook him?" Li Ye also doubted himself.

Yet at this ti, they had no leisure for reflection.

Having lingered at the court entrance for a long ti, with the trial about to begin, Zhao Hailong hadn’t appeared.

Only when they saw Xu Liang enter the courtroom, they no longer waited, instead directly entered the courtroom.

...

Courtroom.

In the waiting room.

"Liang Shan, what’s the situation with the first trial of this case?"

"Why do I feel sothing odd?"

"Who was responsible for the first trial’s presiding judge in Jiang City!?"

In the waiting room, several robed judges, at this ti holding civil docunts, frowning and discussing continuously.

This docunt...

Naturally concerning Jiang City’s accidental death case!

They hadn’t discussed much before, now having glanced through the entire case, at last...

"The plaintiff’s evidence is not recognized?"

"Not recognized without verification!?"

Soone hesitantly questioned the presiding judge Liang Shan.

The man nad Liang Shan was around fifty, with hair a bit mottled, wearing black glasses, and his determined face inexplicably exuding an aura of authority.

He silently looked at the docunt in his hand, not rushing to speak.

According to the information from the first trial...

During the trial, the plaintiff submitted so rather ambiguous, unsubstantiated objective evidence.

Yet... the presiding judge Liu Shennan chose not to acknowledge it.

This is a bit strange.

But what’s even stranger is... not acknowledging the plaintiff’s evidence, and then ruling in favor of the plaintiff!

This is quite puzzling.

In the vast majority of cases, the second trial upholds the original judgnt, so for this case...

"Change the judgnt?" soone asked with a frown.

Soone retorted, "How to change!? Should the defendant pay a bit more? Or a bit less!?"

Upon hearing this, the people in the waiting room fell silent.

This is a civil compensation case. The judgnt is basically about the amount of compensation.

Unless...

The case undergoes a change, like Xu Liang turning the case from civil to criminal, and then it’s judged on other charges!

But...

"The data is sowhat disorganized, aside from the autopsy report, the rest is filled with personal conjecture."

"There is no objective evidence to support it."

Liang Shan suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded.

The facts are indeed like that.

And that’s why the first trial’s verdict seed strange but not enough to arouse suspicion!

The evidence is chaotic lacking hard objective proof, mostly based on subjective conjecture, and surprise evidence...

If this led Liu Shennan to have a sowhat poor first impression of them, not acknowledging it is indeed reasonable!

"But..."

"Who was the plaintiff’s lawyer again?" soone suddenly asked.

Soone replied: "Xu Liang."

With those two words, the waiting room fell silent.

Xu Liang... these two words, since June 2004, have hovered like a nightmare above everyone’s heads, lingering!

Up until now, a full ten months, he hasn’t lost a single case!

The smallest case was the one of Chen Dong, the biggest case even broke the heavens!

Yet now, he’s taking on a civil case...

To be honest, Liang Shan felt sothing was eerie.

But no matter how eerie, there’s no way around it... today is the day of the second trial, and no matter what, the trial must proceed!

With this thought, Liang Shan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"How long until the trial starts?"

"Five minutes," the judge replied.

Five minutes?

Upon hearing this, Liang Shan didn’t hesitate any longer, he stood up directly, and with heavy steps, slowly headed towards the courtroom.

Qingshi City, as the provincial capital.

The Interdiate People’s Court is much better than that of Hanhai City’s Sunzhou, with a very grand and imposing style!

Even the courtroom, the material of the front door is much better than other courts.

When Liang Shan placed his hand on the door and gave a slight push...

"Creak!"

The door opened.

Scattered figures appeared before Liang Shan.

At this mont, the few people in the courtroom saw the judge enter and imdiately beca solemn.

"Brother Tao, the judge is here!"

Li Ye on the hearing bench noticed this and was slightly shaken, whispering.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tao felt a rush of heat.

In the case where Xu Liang won the first trial, the opponent appealed for a second trial, clearly dissatisfied with the verdict!

But, not satisfied with a seventy thousand work injury compensation...

So what exactly is the dissatisfaction!?

Perhaps... the case indeed contains twists!

"Shh~"

Zhang Tao quickly hushed, not intending to disrupt the courtroom order and delay the trial.

Li Ye quickly kept quiet.

anwhile, at the front door, Liang Shan entered with a few people, taking slow steps inside.

"Screech~!"

Liang Shan took his place at the judges’ bench, slightly adjusting his chair.

Then glanced around, recalling all the detailed facts from the first trial in his mind.

Finally, ensuring nothing was overlooked and all was morized in his mind... Liang Shan took a deep breath.

He slightly leaned forward, getting closer to the microphone, his deep voice carrying through the microphone, entering the courtroom, startling two people, one bored, and another dozing off in two waiting rooms into awakening!

"Both the plaintiff and defendant..."

"Please enter the courtroom for the trial!"
