In the north of Xinfeng County, there is a resettlement community called "Yingchun Garden".
In a square at the gate of Yingchun Garden, there are many old men and women, bathing in the morning sunshine, leisurely walking, doing Tai Chi, taking a walk...
There is a stone table with a chessboard on the edge of the square. At this moment, two old men in their sixties are playing chess. Next to them, there are three old men watching the game with their hands behind their backs, nodding or shaking their heads from time to time, but none of them said anything.
As the saying goes, watching chess does not speak to a true gentleman.
"Snapped!"
One of them, an old man with a fat figure and wearing a coat, pushed the "horse" heavily in front of the "cannon" and said, "General! Haha, Lao Li, you have nothing to do now, right?"
Opposite me, Lao Li slapped his thigh and said in annoyance: "My eyes are getting worse and worse. Why didn't I notice your horse? Lao Chen, this trick of yours is interesting."
Old Chen smiled and fanned himself, looking slightly satisfied.
At this time, an old man watching the game said to him: "Old Chen, your Xiaoxin's live broadcast business has been doing well recently. I saw him coming back yesterday with two bottles of Maotai in his hand. He was feeling windy when he walked.
It means getting rich."
Lao Chen waved his hands and said in a low-key voice: "It's just so so. I'm content if that little brat of mine doesn't cause trouble outside. How can I expect him to get rich?"
Although he said this, the smile on his face could not be concealed.
The prodigal son who was originally described as "idle and idle" by many people has finally become a talent and his career has gradually improved. Lao Chen is very pleased.
At this time, the community staff led a uniformed policeman over quickly, pointed at Lao Chen and said: "Comrade police, the one holding the cattail fan is the person you are looking for."
"Okay, thank you."
The policeman thanked him.
Lao Chen and the others noticed the policeman and looked over one after another.
Policeman Lao Song, who was in his thirties, walked up to Lao Chen with his briefcase and asked, "Are you Chen Xin's father, Chen Jianghe, right?"
"Ah, yes," Chen Jianghe nodded, stood up awkwardly, and said nervously: "Comrade police, what are you doing?"
Several old men nearby became very interested in the purpose of the police's visit.
Even many people walking and doing Tai Chi in the distance stopped, looked over, and whispered to each other.
Everyone has a gossipy heart, especially old men and women of this age group.
Old Song showed his ID and said: "I am from the Criminal Police Team of the Binjiang Branch of the Longcheng City Public Security Bureau. My name is Song Zhenguo. I came here this time because of your son's matter."
"Xiaoxin is not at home. I am his father. If you need anything, you can tell me." Chen Jianghe's heart skipped a beat and he said quickly.
Song Zhenguo took out a piece of paper from his briefcase, "Chen Xin is suspected of fraud, and the amount is extremely huge. He has been criminally detained by our police. This is the "Criminal Detention Notice."
After speaking, he handed the notice to Chen Jianghe.
After the public security organ takes criminal detention of a criminal suspect, it shall prepare a "Criminal Detention Notice" within 24 hours after the detention and notify the detained person's family.
Song Zhenguo made a special trip to deliver the "Criminal Detention Notice" to Chen Xin's parents.
Chen Jianghe took the notice with trembling hands and looked at the bright words "criminal detention" on it. His expression suddenly changed and his mind went blank.
how come……
How could Xiaoxin commit a crime?
The people next to me also closed their mouths and did not dare to speak.
Criminal detention!
Even ordinary people who don't understand the law know the weight of these two words.
"Whoa!"
Chen Jianghe suddenly raised his head to look at Song Zhenguo and said in a trembling voice: "Comrade police, is this a mistake? My Xiaoxin is a good boy. It is impossible for him to commit a crime. It is absolutely impossible!"
Which parent thinks that his or her child is not a good child?
Song Zhenguo was very clear about Chen Xin's accusation. The evidence chain was complete and there was basically no possibility of making a mistake.
If the unscrupulous young man hadn't bought a million worth of things to repay the debt, I don't know how many victims would have suffered losses because of purchasing inferior products from Chen Xin's live broadcast room!
This nature is very bad.
Song Zhenguo said in a deep voice: "Mr. Chen, the evidence about Chen Xin is conclusive and has basically been determined. You can find a lawyer for him. Find a better lawyer and have a better attitude towards pleading guilty. Maybe he can get a few years off his sentence."
.”
A few years off the sentence...
The implication is that the number is set!
Chen Jianghe's eyes darkened, his body swayed twice and he almost fell down.
The people next to him quickly supported him.
Chen Jianghe took two deep breaths, looked at Song Zhenguo and asked, "Comrade police, can I ask what specifically my son committed?"
Song Zhenguo said: "You know your son is delivering goods on live broadcast, right?"
"Yes, I know." Chen Jianghe nodded, with a puzzled look on his face, "It's not against the law to sell goods through live streaming, right?"
"It is not illegal to sell goods through live broadcast, but Chen Xin uses second-hand goods and defective goods to sell as new products, falsely promotes them, passes them off as good ones, deceives consumers and makes profits. This is a crime!" Song Zhenguo said loudly: "It involves
The amount is as high as one million! This has far exceeded the standard of 'extremely huge amount' in the crime of fraud, and is a very serious criminal offence!"
"Gudu!"
Chen Jianghe swallowed hard, his heart beating wildly.
"You'd better hurry up and find a lawyer."
After saying that, Song Zhenguo turned and left.
Chen Jianghe stared blankly at Song Zhenguo's back. It wasn't until he walked away that he came to his senses, slapped his thigh heavily, and ran home quickly.
After Chen Jianghe left, rumors suddenly spread in the square, which was wonderful.
As word spreads, things change.
In the end, it turned into "Chen Xin is going to be shot, and the police asked his parents to see him for the last time"...
Chen Jianghe’s home.
"What?! My son was arrested by the police! Oh my God, I only have such a son. If he has any shortcomings, how can I live!!"
Chen Jianghe's wife, Li Guihua, burst into tears as soon as she heard the news.
"Okay! Why cry? What's the use of crying? Besides, my son is not dead yet!" Chen Jianghe yelled irritably.
Li Guihua sat on the sofa and wiped her tears: "Why are you so good at me? If you have the ability, go and fish out your son!"
"you……"
Chen Jianghe was extremely angry and stared at Li Guihua. He wanted to say something but didn't know where to start. In the end, he just sighed and frowned: "Stop nagging, hurry up, we are going to Longcheng now. By the way, take the bankbook."
Come on, we need to find a better lawyer."
"Oh, good, good!"
Li Guihua nodded repeatedly and stumbled back to the bedroom to find her bankbook.
Six or seven minutes later, Chen Jianghe and his wife hurried out and took the nearest train to Longcheng.
On the way, Chen Jianghe made countless calls and finally found a fairly reliable lawyer. After arriving in Longcheng, he took a car and went straight to the "Quan Jing Law Firm" where the lawyer worked.
"Lawyer Zhang, you must save our son!"
"Our Xiaoxin is still young, only in his early thirties, not yet married, and his career has just started to improve. If he gets into this, his life will be ruined!"
"He didn't kill anyone or set a fire. He just sold things online. How could he break the law?"
"Some people just don't like other people's kindness. If you are not satisfied with something you bought, we can just refund it to you. Why do you always call the police? These people really deserve to die!"
Li Guihua talked nonchalantly, her voice was high and her speed was as fast as a machine gun.
Next to him, Chen Jianghe tried to interrupt many times but couldn't.
Sitting across from him was a man in a suit and leather shoes with oily hair. He looked like he was in his early thirties and always had an awkward yet polite smile on his face.
He is lawyer Zhang Wei.
"Ms. Li, I can understand your feelings. Don't worry, I am professional and I will do my best to help your son reduce his sentence." Zhang Wei said.
Li Guihua seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and asked quickly: "Lawyer Zhang, when can my son come out?"
"I have to meet the person involved before I can give you an answer. Before that, I need to confirm one thing."
"you say."
"Are you sure you want to entrust me as Mr. Chen Xin's attorney?" Zhang Wei asked.
"certainly!"
Chen Jianghe nodded immediately, "I asked a friend to inquire and I know that Lawyer Zhang is very strong, especially in criminal defense. You must help us."
"Both of you know my charging standards. If you have no objection, we can sign the entrustment agreement now and leave the rest to me."
Zhang Wei took out the entrustment agreement.
"good……"
"Wait!" Before Chen Jianghe finished speaking, Li Guihua patted the back of his hand hard and said to Zhang Wei: "Lawyer Zhang, we only have one son, Xiaoxin. Money is not a problem, but you
I have to guarantee that my son will be innocent!"
Zhang Wei shook his head: "I know a little bit about this case. Judging from the current situation, Mr. Chen Xin's criminal facts are basically established. He wants to plead not guilty... With all due respect, it is impossible. We can only start from
Let’s start with commutation of sentences.”
Hearing this, Li Guihua on the opposite side became anxious.
"Can't be innocent!? Then why are we looking for you? Aren't you deceiving others?"
Zhang Wei is still smiling and calm at every turn.
He has a special profession, has encountered all kinds of people, and his heart has been tempered to the point of being invulnerable to fire and water.
Although Li Guihua is a bit unreasonable, to be honest, Zhang Wei has never seen anyone who is more excessive and messy than her.
There are always some people who regard lawyers as omnipotent...
Zhang Wei was not angry, and the smile on his face did not diminish, and he said: "Don't be anxious, you two. I'll inquire about the specific situation first."
After saying that, he stood up with his cell phone and walked to the back room to make a call.
A few minutes later.
Zhang Wei came back, his expression became much weirder.
"Lawyer Zhang, how are you?" Chen Jianghe and his wife looked at him eagerly.
Zhang Wei cleared his throat and said: "Two of you, I just asked my friends in the political and legal system to inquire about Mr. Chen Xin's situation, and I have a rough understanding of Mr. Chen Xin's situation. I made a mistake in what I just said, and I take it back."
"That's good, that's good." Chen Jianghe and his wife looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
But what Zhang Wei said next instantly made their hearts lift again.
"What I mean is that a plea of not guilty is not basically impossible, but..." Zhang Wei paused for a moment, shook his head, and slowly uttered five words: "It's completely impossible!"
"What!?"
Chen Jianghe and his wife were immediately dumbfounded.
Zhang Wei said: "Yes, it is impossible to plead not guilty. We can only work hard on reducing the sentence."
"What the hell! You charge so much, but you can't even exonerate my son. Then what should I do with you?" Li Guihua slapped the table, stood up, and walked out angrily.
Zhang Wei didn't try to dissuade him. He sat on a chair and said calmly: "Even if you ask a hundred law firms, the answer will be the same."
"If anyone tells you that they can help your son defend his innocence, he must be a liar."
"I, Zhang Wei Zhang Dazhuang, am one of the best criminal defense lawyers in Longcheng."
"You can go out and ask about my story. If you change your mind, you are welcome to come back to me at any time."
"Lawyer Zhang, I'm sorry, my wife is too anxious. I'll go and persuade her."
After Chen Jianghe finished speaking, he chased after him.
"What are you doing!? How long has it been? Can you restrain your temper?" Chen Jianghe took his wife's hand and scolded him.
Li Guihua's eyes were red and she said, "I just thought my son would be fine. What's wrong with me!?"
Chen Jianghe sighed: "Then you shouldn't be like this! Lawyer Zhang is well-known in the industry. My friend said that he once defended a man who was sentenced to thirty years in prison and saved him from thirty years in prison.
!He is really great. Apart from him, it is difficult to find a more suitable person."
"Then...then let's choose him." Li Guihua wavered in her heart.
After all, being able to be exempted from a thirty-year prison sentence is enough to illustrate Zhang Wei's strength.
With his help, my son might be able to come out after squatting for a year and a half.
Later, the two returned to the law firm and met Zhang Wei again.
The two parties then sign an entrustment agreement.
