Who Made Him a Lawyer? Chapter 344 - 237: The Day of the Trial

"This group is well-known in Qingshi City and has a good reputation; many people have benefited from the group’s kindness."

"Almost every year, they carry out free check-ups in rural areas, offering free dical services to children under 15 or the elderly over 60."

"At the sa ti, the developnt of pharmaceuticals in Qingshi City is inseparable from the Superstar Group."

"The drug research and developnt speed of Superstar Group is very fast, and the efficacy is stable. Although the prices are not cheap, at least they keep people alive..."

"In just a few days, they gained a significant position in Lanshan Province, otherwise, they wouldn’t be qualified to sell Imatinib..."

"..."

After those words fell.

A trace of thought occasionally flashed in Xu Liang’s eyes.

From Feng Nan’s words, Superstar Pharmaceutical Group’s strength is not to be underestimated, and they are also fond of charity.

Everyone big and small in Qingshi City has benefited from them!

This is also why Chai Shiring dares to steer public opinion; after all, even if he doesn’t use it, public opinion leans towards the Superstar Pharmaceutical Group!

"What’s wrong?"

Feng Nan showed a puzzled look.

"Is there a problem?"

Xu Liang returned to his senses, shook his head, and did not continue to ask.

Seeing this, Feng Nan hesitated for a mont, her face showing hesitation, and after a long while, suddenly asked again:

"What if there’s a traitor in the Mutual Aid Association..."

She feared that personal greed would leave all 72 people with no way out!

But...

"Don’t worry, it’s not a big deal."

Xu Liang reassured softly.

Feng Nan hesitated to speak, wanted to say sothing more, but seeing his thoughtful look, she finally swallowed her words.

After asking, Xu Liang approached Su Yu and Yang Ruoxi, thought briefly, and said:

"Investigate what Superstar Pharmaceutical Group has been doing in recent years..."

After those words fell, the two won looked surprised.

"You suspect the pharmaceutical group is behind this!?"

Xu Liang’s expression was calm, "It’s just suspicion for now; there’s no substantial evidence."

Hearing this, the two hesitated but, after thinking for a while, nodded in agreent.

As for what Xu Liang wanted to do...

He recalled Wu Fang and Kong Jian and then took a deep breath.

Still that sentence.

The first trial is imminent!

He must find a way to delay the trial!!!

Thinking of this, a glimr of sharpness flashed in Xu Liang’s eyes.

"Defense for the first trial...."

"I’ll handle it myself!"

...

April 24th.

Eight days until the first trial.

Xu Liang confird that Li Ye, Wu Fang, and Kong Jian had no clear bank transfers, and none had savings in their bank accounts.

It was also clear that the three had not engaged in any profit-driven transactions to earn money, all the drugs...

Rather than selling, it was more like purchasing on behalf!

Xu Liang breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his face.

...

April 26th.

Six days until the first trial.

The Blue Shield Law Firm began a fierce attack on Zhao Hailong’s case.

Dong Jianbao, with Chen Liang, found another way, offering a not-guilty defense for Zhao Hailong and Cheng Jia, claiming that the two were rely lawyers and were unaware of the case’s details!

Xu Liang noticed their intention, attempting to use an old case to exhaust his energy!

He instructed Wang Feiyu to leak the information to Zhang Yong and Zhang An, having them secretly turn against each other.

...

April 29th.

Three days until the first trial.

The public opinion pressure for the case was guided by the Blue Shield Law Firm, suddenly triggering a wave of fake drug purges in Qingshi City!

The Superstar Pharmaceutical Group seized the opportunity to throw out a wave of benefits, making everyone grateful!

The public outcry against Kong Jian, Feng Nan, and others beca increasingly exaggerated...

On the sa day.

Two envelopes sent from Upper City to Qingshi City arrived in Xu Liang’s hands.

Opening the envelopes, there were unexpectedly two original research papers inside!

Wu Chengjun sensed sothing was off, but upon careful thought, there seed to be nothing wrong.

...

May 1st.

Only one day until the trial begins...

The Blue Shield Law Firm held another press conference.

In the press conference, Chai Shiring’s mouth seed to be full of magic, bewitching everyone with his words.

"Lawyer Chai, based on what is known to date, the drugs smuggled by the defendants are Imatinib, which is currently only distributed and sold by the Superstar Pharmaceutical Group in the country. What is the Superstar Pharmaceutical Group’s view on the other party?"

In front of the Blue Shield Law Firm.

A few excited reporters extended the microphone to Chai Shiring, eagerly asking.

Seeing this, Chai Shiring smiled, cleared his throat, and spoke loudly:

"Ladies and gentlen, if smuggling drugs can save lives, our client, the Superstar Group, is willing to drop this lawsuit."

Drop the lawsuit?

For a mont, everyone froze, looking puzzled.

But the next second...

Just as Chai Shiring’s tone shifted, he continued:

"However!"

"The drugs smuggled by the other party do not possess the most basic therapeutic effect that dicines should have!"

"It’s even a harm to people! Causing innocent people to die!"

Speaking, Chai Shiring whispered.

"Currently, only one pharmaceutical company in the world is qualified to produce and sell Imatinib, aning the drug is monopolized!"

"And the smuggling of fake drugs into Qingshi City by the accused, Kong Jian and others, will likely make the pharmaceutical company feel discouraged and cut off the supply of Imatinib to the Eastern Country!"

Chai Shiring paused, then with a hint of sorrow in his voice, sighed and said:

"This will directly lead to tens of thousands of people in the Eastern Country losing access to essential drugs and the opportunity to survive..."

"This is a scene that the Blue Shield Law Firm absolutely does not wish to see!"

As he spoke.

A noble aura of a ’savior’ spread around everyone.

So beca very emotional.

Among the group of journalists, a reporter nad Wang Hao squeezed forward, looking excitedly at Chai Shiring, and asked:

"Lawyer Chai, how do you view the defense lawyer Xu Liang in this case!?"

Upon hearing this.

The crowd paused slightly, then burst into an uproar.

The defense lawyer is Xu Liang!?

The na Xu Liang is almost not unfamiliar to any journalist in Lanshan Province.

The body falling case at Jinjiang Hotel in Hanhai City!

The Sunzhou steel case!

Even the Qi Yu case in Jiang City!

These three major malicious cases had reporters writing day and night until their pens wore out, how could anyone forget his na!

But then ca the problem...

"Xu Liang? The defense lawyer for this case is Xu Liang? I hadn’t noticed yet..."

"Is it the Xu Liang from Hanhai City!? Isn’t he the conscientious lawyer? I rember he exposed the cases in Jiang City and Sunzhou!"

"He ca to Qingshi City!? And I didn’t even know!!!"

"No way, Xu Liang is the defense lawyer? He’s defending those smuggling fake dicine?!"

"This..."

As the saying goes, a man’s na casts a shadow.

In the legal world, many hate Xu Liang to death.

But ordinary people, even when they just hear the na Xu Liang, subconsciously wake up a bit from their fervor.

The chaotic noise instantly unceasingly blared, and the crowd began to discuss.

Chai Shiring’s expression was emotionless, then he revealed a smile.

He took a deep breath and said:

"Lawyer Xu... is an extrely capable lawyer."

He first gave a complint, but imdiately afterward...

"But!"

"As a lawyer, I believe professional ethics are more important!"

Upon hearing this.

Wang Hao, in the crowd, suddenly brightened, eagerly asking further:

"Lawyer Chai, do you think the opposing lawyer’s professional ethics fall short for the legal industry?!"

As he spoke, his breathing was rapid, and his eyes were full of expectation!

He was a journalist from Hanhai City, originally supposed to defend Hanhai City’s lawyer.

But....

At this mont, his performance seed as though he couldn’t wait for everyone to denounce Xu Liang together!

Chai Shiring smiled but said:

"I can only assure you that all lawyers at Blue Shield Law Firm will not violate any law!"

"Moreover..... we will resolutely protect the health interests of Qingshi City residents!"

The plaintiff is defending the health interests of residents?

Then the defendant must be infringing upon them, right!?

In an instant, the journalists’ eyes in the crowd lit up, as if they had found excellent material to publish, and joy was evident on their faces!

Imdiately, a series of ’click’ sounds erupted!

Countless flashes illuminated Chai Shiring!

At this mont.

Chai Shiring seed once again to beco the savior of Qingshi City!

...

...

Ti passed, and when the press conference ended, in the blink of an eye, it was...

May 2nd!

The very day of the first trial defense, the day the Qingshi City fake dicine case court opened!

At half past nine in the morning.

"Hehe, these people are criticizing quite fiercely..."

In the hospital, Xu Liang sat on a public bench, looking at the newspaper in his hand, a slight disdain showing on his face.

On the newspaper were a series of striking headlines.

[Moral or Immoral? The beacon of morality now defends smugglers for money!]

[On the eve of the first trial! Blue Shield Law Firm declares to fight against evil forces to the end!]

[Superstar Pharmaceutical Group releases an important statent, the Imatinib-producing company is now debating whether to withdraw from the Eastern Country market due to the Qingshi City fake dicine case, thankfully due to the Group’s nurous pleas to stay...]

[Fake dicine kills! Twenty boxes of fake dicine, tens of thousands of lethal poison pills, now et their defender!]

[Objective Discussion: Why is dicine so expensive? Why maintain patent dicines!]

[...]

On a newspaper, all the headlines were related to the fake dicine case!

Even around the hospital, the noisy discussion mixed with so cases being talked about.

Chai Shiring indeed played the public opinion well.

However...

"Blue Shield Law Firm, is it..."

Looking at the newspaper, at the photo of Chai Shiring making his impassioned declaration, Xu Liang squinted his eyes.

The other party has been entrenched in Qingshi City for a long ti, but it also ans... there’s plenty of leverage!

"Hehe, you’d better win the case in one go!"

"If I get a breather...."

Saying this, Xu Liang paused, his mind flashing so clues found while investigating the Superstar Pharmaceutical Group in recent days, a hint of gloom in his eyes.

As long as he gets a bit more ti to breathe...

The offensive and defensive positions would certainly shift!!!

The defendant? Defense lawyer?

It’s not impossible to turn passive into active!!!

Just...

"Who is this Wang Hao journalist? I see several articles attacking you."

At so point, Yang Ruoxi walked to Xu Liang’s side with Feng Nan and a few trustworthy mbers of the Mutual Aid Association, frowning as she looked at the newspaper.

"Do you have a grudge against him?"

Xu Liang shook his head.

On the newspaper, soone liked to defa him, nad Wang Hao, with several press releases, writing nurous pieces overnight, vilifying him, and calling him hypocritical and estranged from virtue.

So even deviated from the fake dicine case to attack, bringing up previous cases, hinting at an attempt to overturn the case for Liu Kun...

"Just a pawn."

Xu Liang stood up, speaking calmly, and looked at the people in front of him, saying:

"Since everyone’s here..."

Today is the trial, whether they can get a chance to breathe... depends entirely on today!

Thinking of this.

Xu Liang instinctively tightened his grip on the papers concerning ’ergency avoidance’ and ’endangering public safety’.

"Then let’s go."

"To the courtroom!"
