Who Made Him a Lawyer?
Chapter 375 - 262: The Depravity of Human Nature
Huang Liang’s evidence... is almost in hand!
By my estimate, it should be around the 17th, at most four or five more days.
This was the deal he made with Huang Liang, otherwise gathering clues would be difficult, even for the police!
Why?
"Some participants in human experiments consented voluntarily, but their subjective consent does not affect the objective legal crime."
"Since it’s a crime, the police need to investigate, but... these people actively hide their whereabouts, there’s nothing to investigate, we don’t even know who they are!"
"Additionally, Han Chengguang is the head of the pharmaceutical enterprise, but doesn’t handle drug research."
"Even if you expose it all, all he knows is that he’s conducting illegal experiments, he has no idea about the experimental ’consumables’."
Outside the court, Xu Liang slowly spoke.
"Only Huang Liang, he’s the main person responsible for the human experiments!"
"If he cooperates with the investigation... the intelligence will be so detailed it only needs to be verified once and can be directly used without supplementation!"
"Contact him later."
As he spoke.
Everyone slowly walked out, raising their steps to descend the stairs.
Now the time is half past two in the afternoon.
The sky is still bright, sunlight hitting the body makes those who haven’t seen light for a long time feel a bit dazed, the world begins to blur.
Who is beside Xu Liang?
Besides Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu, Feng Nan, Wu Fang, and Kong Jian stood as well!
Seeing the light of day again, Wu Fang and Kong Jian, who had been detained for more than a month, looked at the bustling traffic outside, listened to the noisy urban sounds around, and felt a bit dizzy at the moment.
It’s been a month, from early April to now mid-May, almost a month and a half!
He’s almost forgotten what life outside was like...
The three people’s lips moved slightly for a moment, ultimately speechless, only their eyes turned red, bloodshot, looking as if they had a thousand words to say.
After a long while, Kong Jian seemed to come back to his senses and turned to look at Xu Liang.
He just prepared to speak, but unexpectedly Xu Liang interrupted him directly.
"How about it, is there something you want to do after coming out?"
Xu Liang said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the two hesitated to speak and then fell into silence for a long time.
Finally, Kong Jian sighed, saying bitterly:
"It’s still the same..."
What is the same?
Smuggling, naturally!
What lies in front of them is a dead cycle, Kong Jian and Wu Fang need to take medicine to survive, and taking medicine requires money, but they have no money, so they can only take generic drugs.
To get the drugs, they need to smuggle, and once caught a second time, not even Xu Liang might be able to save them...
"Tsk."
Su Yu, nearby, didn’t know what to say, after thinking for a long time, she spoke up:
"Do you still have any medicine to take?"
"A little." The three nodded, although the previous medicine was confiscated by the police, they managed to hide a part of it.
"Since you still have some, then take a break for now."
Su Yu gently reminded:
"The case in Sunzhou has become quite big, the steel case is in its tensest closing stage, so..."
The implication is that customs inspections will be very strict!
Kong Jian and Wu Fang are naturally aware, after all, the reason they got caught was because customs suddenly tightened while they continued smuggling using last year’s methods.
So, in the short term, it’s impossible to smuggle.
"How much longer can you take it?" Yang Ruoxi asked nervously.
"One month."
The three said, revealing a despairing fact.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell into prolonged silence.
Customs clearance surely won’t last just a month, so... what about next month?
"Why do I feel it’s better to be sentenced... at least inside, the officials are responsible for medical care..." Yang Ruoxi jibed, then took a resigned breath.
As she spoke, a flick hit her on her head.
"Pop!"
The sound was crisp and loud, clearly a good hit, but unfortunately her head seemed empty!
"What are you saying!"
Xu Liang withdrew his hand, looking at Yang Ruoxi who was rubbing her forehead and said.
"How can you hit people..." Yang Ruoxi felt a bit aggrieved.
What she said was not wrong, when sentenced, the officials indeed take charge of medical care after entering a detention center, which for Kong Jian and Wu Fang would be free!
Many have tried this method, deliberately committing a crime to then recuperate in a detention center.
But...
Su Yu whispered to Yang Ruoxi.
"The Mutual Aid Association still has people."
Upon hearing this, Yang Ruoxi paused, then just rubbed her head without speaking.
Eliminating the 17 backstabbers, the Mutual Aid Association still has 55 people!
These 55 can’t all commit crimes to enter detention, right...
Inside there are still some children as young as seven or eight, how would they commit crimes?
Even reaching the criminal standard doesn’t work, the three words ’underage’ guard it, so they won’t be sentenced, extremely abstract.
But...
"Rest assured, the law firm provides after-sale service!"
Xu Liang suddenly smiled, looking at the others and said.
"Our law firm prides itself on value for money, our service projects are satisfactory, making clients happy, driving our peers crazy!"
Af... after-sales!?
Feng Nan had a trace of confusion in her eyes.
The case is over, the defendant has won, her demands have all been met, and the plaintiff has given up contesting, almost no one will appeal.
So... where does after-sales manifest!?
"Rest assured,"
Xu Liang reassured the other with a gentle look, then stopped talking.
For Feng Nan’s family’s leukemia, only Li Guang, Huang Liang clearly stated it was caused by the experiments.
But it’s not a big deal.
Feng Nan’s leukemia, although not diagnosed, was only suspected to be caused by the experiments, doesn’t it still need responsibility!?
Moreover.
What about the rest of the Mutual Aid Association?
Xu Liang believed the experimental data must include them, if not... then it’s Huang Liang, the key researcher who remembered incorrectly; the real memories were with him!
Anyway, in the end, the hospital and pharmaceutical company would pay compensation.
Even if the investigators noticed... they wouldn’t bother to handle it, they wouldn’t delve deeply at all.
As for the 17 people who betrayed...
Well, sorry, they were no longer Xu Liang’s clients, no memory of them existed.
Thinking of this.
As though speaking of Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrives.
At that moment, two thin silhouettes stumbled out from the court.
The two were none other than...
Wang Hu and Yang Hao!
They, standing outside the court, looked up at the sky, feeling that the daylight was glaringly harsh, making their spirits quite dazed.
"Lost... lost..."
Yang Hao murmured, his eyes unfocused, and Wang Hu beside him was no better off.
They couldn’t resist the temptation of Sha Jin and Dong Jianbao, choosing to kick Feng Nan, Xu Liang, and others aside for survival, leading to their betrayal.
Initially, they thought winning the case would let them stay in the hospital indefinitely.
Who knew...
The second trial directly ruled against them!
They had no defense whatsoever, crushed completely, and as witnesses, they barely uttered two sentences, standing there like clowns!
So...
"About Lawyer Sha..."
Wang Hu’s lips quivered for a while, "What to do...?"
They lost, the pharmaceutical company has to compensate reputation and money, can their assurance... still exist?
Since they didn’t sign a contract, there’s no legal efficacy, even if they kick a few people out, nobody can do anything.
Yang Hao remained silent, standing still.
Until...
"You mongrel!"
A voice brewed with anger rang beside their ears.
Wang Hu and Yang Hao looked up, seeing Feng Nan and others glaring angrily at them from below the steps.
Wang Hu felt guilty, instinctively wanting to avert his gaze, speeding up his steps to leave, but...
"You beast! When Li Ye had medicine, you were eager to be a dog to proclaim your loyalty, now that Li Ye is gone, you become a dog for the pharmaceutical company... truly a good dog!"
Kong Jian didn’t bother to hide the mockery on his face, his eyes filled with disdain.
At that moment.
Wang Hu and Yang Hao felt their last cover was brutally ripped away, flushed with embarrassment, they stopped and looked up at the group.
"Ha ha, you’re noble, you’re lofty, but so what?"
"I have medicine to take! Do you?"
Yang Hao lashed out, fists clenched, his voice harsh.
Wang Hu, too, wore a sneering look, attacking the most vulnerable part of the opponent.
"Kong Jian, your wife and child are almost dying from sickness, do you know?"
"The leftover medicine has been half stolen by me, not sure if it can last half a month, can you still sell medicine after half a month?"
"You buy crap!!!"
Stolen... stolen?
Kong Jian was immediately stunned, this sentence struck him like a hammer, leaving his face pale and bloodless, eyes reddened.
Before he got caught, he quickly escaped back home.
Took all the medicine out of the bottles, hid it, handed over empty bottles to avoid misfortune.
Thinking survival was eating as much as possible, who knew...
"What do you mean!?"
Driven by anger, Kong Jian wanted to step forward, fortunately Xu Liang in the back held him, preventing him from moving an inch.
Probation needs caution, committing crimes during probation leads directly to prison...
He had a solution, naturally couldn’t let others groundlessly land in jail!
Wang Hu wanted to give up, bluntly revealed all his actions, even taunting:
"I can survive, can you!?"
"I have medicine, Kong Jian, can your wife and child have anything?"
"Smuggling? Smuggling crap, the lawyer said, customs are on full alert, one batch gets checked one batch!!!"
Upon hearing this.
Kong Jian got angrier, his sanity gradually eroded completely.
Until...
"Will the pharmaceutical company and hospital cover your treatment costs?"
Xu Liang suddenly spoke up, smilingly looking at Wang Hu and Yang Hao.
Hearing this, the two paused, promptly shifted their gaze.
Honestly, they felt uneasy with Xu Liang for some inexplicable reason.
But... Wang Hu still bit the bullet, retorting:
"Otherwise!?"
Xu Liang nodded, "Hmm, got it."
He nodded, suddenly added.
"By the way, don’t slander us; we are all law-abiding citizens, smuggling is something we will never do!"
"As for whether my clients have medicine, they naturally do... no need for you two to worry about how."
"For the two of you..."
"Better focus on yourselves!"
With that.
Xu Liang took Su Yu and Yang Ruoxi and turned to leave.
Feng Nan dragged the unwilling Kong Jian, slowly following.
Only Yang Hao and Wang Hu stood stunned in place, watching the group’s backs, frowned, after a while, a voice fell.
"What did he mean by that?"
....
....
Meanwhile.
Qingshi City, Tianshan District, inside Tianshan Hospital.
Five o’clock in the afternoon.
"Hello, Dean Liu."
