Chapter 772 [Won the LLB in three days? 】
It is easy to take over troubles, but very troublesome to solve them.
After learning about Xiangjiang's legal system and the circumstances of the case they promptly investigated from the lawyers hired by the Li family, Zhou Yi was a little dumbfounded.
The case is not simple.
Qin Shuimei is a ‘sex worker’.
In Hong Kong, the law considers that "sex workers" are engaged in legitimate work and do not constitute a crime, but they do not allow unlimited "prostitution" activities. Hong Kong law stipulates that any place can be used mainly for prostitution by more than two people.
It is considered a 'place of prostitution'; in addition, any person who intends to control a prostitute shall also commit a crime; and any person who controls or has sexual relations with a girl under the age of 16 shall commit a crime.
In other words, in Xiangjiang, "one phoenix on the first floor" is legal, but "multiple phoenixes on the first floor" is illegal. Currently, some democrats are calling for the law to allow the existence of "two phoenixes on the first floor", but the appeal is an appeal. Currently,
The legislation remains unchanged.
The deceased in the case was a gangster named Huang Guangming, commonly known as the 'horseman'. Qin Shuimei was a 'phoenix' under his control, but she was not a legal 'one-story phoenix', but could be drafted at any time
A prostitute.
On the day of the incident, plainclothes police officers from the Mong Kok Police Station's Anti-Pornography Team acted as prostitutes and infiltrated into a "hotel" that was closely related to Huang Guangming, preparing to recruit prostitutes on the spot to lure the snake out of its hole.
But when the police revealed their identities and arrested Huang Guangming and the prostitutes, Huang Guangming resisted and shouted, "There's a robbery, there's a gun!" which caused chaos in the hotel. Because the door was blocked by the police from the anti-pornography team, Huang Guangming and Qin Shuimei
She hid in a room on the 8th floor. When the police broke in, they found that Huang Guangming had fallen from the window of the room and died on the spot. Qin Shuimei was arrested. The police suspected that she had been controlled by Huang Guangming for a long time and had too much grudge.
Shen had a fierce conflict with Huang Guangming in the room that day, and then pushed Huang Guangming out of the window, causing his death.
Of course, this is only what is shown in the data. What is the situation at the scene, whether there are any witnesses, and other specific circumstances require further understanding and investigation.
The question is who will investigate?
Qin Shuimei has no relatives in Xiangjiang, so Li Shuangkai privately hired a lawyer for her, and he also took the "public welfare assistance" route. In order to fulfill Zhang Hua's wishes, he was designated as a "public welfare client", which was registered with the Department of Justice.
Documents written in black and white cannot be changed.
Now Zhang Hua, the client, refused any help from Xiangjiang lawyers and only believed that Zhou Yi was the most reliable, and Zhou Yi agreed, so he cheated his father.
After all, Xiangjiang is an area governed by law. Neither the Chief Executive nor Li Chaoren is above the law. Everything must be done according to the rules. Zhang Hua refuses the help of a barrister, but he has to meet with the defendant, investigate the case, and participate in court defense in the future.
That requires you to be a lawyer. Zhou Yi graduated from a master's degree, but it's a pity that he majored in medicine. He has nothing to do with law, right?
This is not the case in mainland China. With Zhou Yi's connections and a phone call to Tang Bao, the matter can be handled smoothly. Not to mention going against the facts, the police have to mobilize a large amount of manpower to start from the perspective of Qin Shuimei's "innocent".
She took the initiative to collect evidence, but it was different in Xiangjiang. It was the matter of the police and the prosecutor to confirm that the suspect had committed a crime. It was the matter of the lawyer to prove the suspect's innocence.
And if Qin Shuimei is really accused of murder, the case will be heard by the Xiangjiang High Court and the jury will make a verdict. The defender must be a barrister.
According to Xiangjiang's lawyer system, even if Zhou Yi is a barrister, he cannot directly accept Qin Shuimei's entrustment. Qin Shuimei must entrust a solicitor, and then he accepts the solicitor's entrustment. Even to collect attorney fees, he has to It is collected from the solicitor and cannot be directly faced with the client.
Let alone a barrister, Zhou Yi is not even a solicitor now, but he took on this trouble in a muddle-headed manner. Isn’t this fucked up? Zhou Yi wanted to cry.
When he was 'crying' to his wife, Liu Xu unexpectedly raised his little fist and said with a smile: "Do you know? Your wife and I once thought about taking the postgraduate entrance examination in law when we were in college. She is an expert, so don't worry, there is a way. "
"Is he really an expert?" Zhou Yi glanced doubtfully at his wife, whose chest was high and her face was flushed, as if she was excited that he was about to consummate a bitter love in the world. Is this time reliable?
"Of course, I'm telling you, Brother Yi. Nowadays, if people from Xiangjiang want to be a barrister, the threshold is very high, but for people from mainland China, the threshold is much lower. There is a shortcut to Zhongnan." Liu Xu became more and more excited as she spoke: "Ah, When I think of my husband wearing a lawyer's robe and talking in court, people get excited!"
"Is it?"
"Of course, people with higher education and cultural background in mainland China can obtain the barrister qualification as long as they pass the English test and pass the LLB examination of Hong Kong University. Brother Yi, can you not do it?"
"For a case, should I get a barrister qualification?" Zhou Yi's eyes went straight, this was too dramatic.
"You promised Zhang Hua, are you ready to say it?"
"of course not."
"Well, Brother Yi, let me tell you, LLB is a very great exam. Now for mainlanders, the requirements have been lowered. It is their dream, but it may be difficult for them to realize it. Please help me Is it a good idea to implement it?”
"good."
Can you say that it's not good? This is good. Not only is Zhang Hua entrusted, but also his wife's hope is on his shoulders. What else can Zhou Yi say?
As Liu Xu said, Xiangjiang University's LLB program has very high requirements for applicants. In Commonwealth countries, generally only very outstanding high school liberal arts students can apply. Even if you are not required to be the top pick, you are at least among the top three. There is hope. This is also the reason why the status of lawyers in the Commonwealth countries is very high. The entry requirements for a bachelor's degree in law alone are almost abnormal. Those who can get in are elites.
However, since the return of Hong Kong, exchanges with the mainland have increased day by day. The mainland has opened its mind even more, allowing people from Hong Kong to take the judicial examination and become mainland lawyers. The procedure is so simple that many mainland people want to be reincarnated as Hong Kong people in their next life. What? Too many privileges.
Perhaps out of the idea of reciprocating a favor, Xiangjiang University has relaxed the conditions for mainlanders to apply for LLB in recent years. Currently, as long as they have an undergraduate degree recognized by China, are proficient in English, and do not even need to be a law major, they can apply for LLB. Zhou Yi has a master's degree, so that's no problem. Moreover, this kind of exam actually tests memory. The UK is a case law system, which requires familiarity with a large number of cases. This is really not easy for Zhou Yi, whose mental strength is far beyond ordinary people. Calculate it.

"Zhou Yi, you have no problem applying for LLB. Although you have never studied law, you are the most 'magical' young man I have ever seen. Based on this, you have already met the requirements of Hong Kong University. Don't worry, HKU will also give it to me.
This school director’s face. Now you only need to make up for the IELTS and other foreign language certification certificates.”
Li Chaoren smiled and glanced at Zhou Yi, then turned to Guan Feng and said, "A Feng, you can arrange this. Besides, Zhou Yi will live in a villa on Lantau Island during his studies. It's quieter there and suitable for studying."
Zhou Yi smiled and nodded. With his memory that surpasses that of a supercomputer, he just needs to look through the required information. As for IELTS and other things, it can be done in minutes. Just after entering the society these years, he has done
I have been a miracle doctor, a chess player, a chairman, and a miracle chef, and now I am back to being a 'student' again. It's really interesting to think about it.
Guan Feng smiled and said: "Mr. Li, did you also apply for Brother Zhou's permanent residence in Hong Kong?"
According to the regulations of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, those who have legally lived in Hong Kong for seven years or invested more than 6.5 million Hong Kong dollars in one time in Hong Kong and passed the review can obtain permanent residence in Hong Kong. The former is not enough, and as for the latter, the Li family
With his financial resources, he can do it for him in minutes.
"Yes, Afeng, I almost forgot if you didn't remind me." Li Chaoren said with a smile: "Zhou Yi, you are also half of the Li family. You always have to get this right of residence. It is also one of my thoughts, and you can rest assured.
, this right of abode is not inconsistent with Chinese nationality. After you pass LLB, if you want to practice quickly, you must have this right of abode."
"Then I'll trouble my cousin, but there's another problem..."
Zhou Yi smiled bitterly and said: "To intervene in Qin Shuimei's case as soon as possible, I must get the barrister qualification as soon as possible. But as far as I know, according to the normal procedure, it will take four years to complete the LLB, and then another year to complete the PCLL. If I want to
The barrister still has to practice for one year, which will take six years before and after. This is too late. I wonder if there is any workaround?"
He definitely can't wait six years. The Xiangjiang police and the prosecution are both famously efficient. If Qin Shuimei hasn't been thrown out of jail six years later, what kind of competition will Zhang Hua participate in? Thank God if he doesn't fall off his horse.
.
"How long do you think it is?" Li Chaoren was waiting for this sentence. He was very curious about how much potential Zhou Yi had.
Zhou Yi glanced at Li Chaoren and said with embarrassment: "Cousin, in the history of Xiangjiang University, is there any LLB who can graduate in just a week? The longest I can tolerate is one week.
..."
He originally wanted to say three days, but that was too scary and he couldn't say it, so he changed it to one week.
"One week? Brother Yi, you are so awesome!" Liu Xu shook her hand holding the teacup, and the slightly hot tea poured out, burning the back of her white hands until they were slightly red. She looked up at Zhou Yi, her eyes full of enthusiasm.
"One week..." Li Chaoren glanced at Zhou Yi with a wry smile: "Zhou Yi, are you sure you have the ability to complete the LLB course in one week? This is unprecedented..."
"Zhou Sheng, I'm afraid you don't know much about the common legal system..." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users
