Luo Jialan was driving on the highway in a car on her way home.
Several police cars with lights flashing chased her from behind and forced her car to park on the side of the road.
"What's wrong? We're not speeding, are we?" Luo Jialan was confused and asked the driver in front of him. The driver said that it was indeed within the speed limit.
A policeman knocked on the car window, showed his ID, motioned for her to get out of the car, and said, "Ms. Luo Jialan?"
She nodded, "It's me. What's your name? Which police district are you from? Why did you stop my car when I wasn't speeding? I want to file a complaint!"
The policeman shook his head helplessly and said, "Ms. Luo Jialan, we just received a call that you are suspected of being involved in a personal injury case. Please come back and follow us to assist in the investigation."
"What?! Did you find the wrong person? How could I be related to the personal injury case?!" Luo Jialan was furious. She was about to say "I want to find my lawyer" when she suddenly remembered Cai Shengnan...
Just now, she was so angry that she did beat Cai Shengnan.
In fact, she just wanted to slap her at first, but Cai Shengnan didn't fight back, and the more she slapped her, the more excited she became.
She thought Cai Shengnan was in the wrong, so she allowed her to beat and scold him...
Luo Jialan's eyes flickered and she suddenly asked: "Who called the police? I have the right to know who falsely accused me!"
"I don't know if it's a false accusation. The person who called the police was your lawyer Cai Shengnan. She has already gone to the hospital to have her injuries examined. You come back with us first to record a statement."
"It's really her?! You don't know, she..."
Luo Jialan suddenly couldn't speak anymore. What was she going to say to the police
Because she forced Cai Shengnan to use perjury to frame others, but Cai Shengnan refused, so she got angry and beat her up
But then again, doesn’t Cai Shengnan seem like such a compromised person
Luo Jialan had a dull face, and finally realized that she had been tricked by Cai Shengnan...
"Wait a minute, I want to call my lawyer." Luo Jialan took out her cell phone.
The police officer next to him asked, "Your lawyer? Didn't you just send your lawyer to the hospital?"
"I have fired her. I have a new lawyer." Luo Jialan said, finding a name on her mobile phone and dialing it immediately.
"Lawyer Jin? Could you please come? I need a lawyer now. Yes, I'm Luo Jialan. Advance payment? OK, no problem, I'll transfer the money to you right away." Without saying anything, Luo Jialan gave Jin Wanyi's lawyer A 100,000 advance payment was transferred to the bank account.
Compared with Cai Shengnan, Jin Wanyi is really a good person.
Once the money is received, the contractual relationship is established.
The formal agency contract can wait until later.
Jin Wanyi immediately drove to the police station where Luo Jialan said.
By this time, Luo Jialan had been taken to the police station.
She refused to speak and kept waiting for her lawyer.
When Jin Wanyi came in, she saw Luo Jialan huddled on a hardwood chair in the corner with a gray face.
Jin Wanyi had met Luo Jialan once before. She knew that her name was Huo Jialan, but she didn't know why she suddenly changed her name to Luo Jialan.
"Miss Luo, what can I do for you?" Jin Wanyi smiled and sat next to Luo Jialan.
Luo Jialan told her the whole story, and finally emphasized with a grimace: "I was just angry for a moment. She suddenly gave up and didn't want to be my lawyer anymore. I couldn't be more angry... so I slapped her twice, but she actually called the police... "
Jin Wanyi is still very familiar with the name Cai Shengnan.
When she found out that Luo Jialan actually beat Cai Shengnan, Jin Wanyi's expression immediately changed.
It wasn't that she couldn't defend Luo Jialan, but that Luo Jialan was fighting a lawyer, which offended almost all lawyers.
Cai Shengnan is also well-known, and he is very sociable and courteous. He is very popular in several major law firms in the imperial capital.
Her father is also a heavyweight in the American legal profession.
With such an identity, status and profession, Luo Jialan still dared to hit her. Not only did he dare to hit her, but he also didn't care after the beating. This was really too much.
Jin Wanyi's heart moved and she said, "Miss Luo, don't get excited yet. I'll call Lawyer Cai and ask what's going on."
Jin Wanyi is now a barrister, and is no longer the young lawyer she once was with a strong sense of justice.
She learned to be cautious, to compromise, and to look beyond phenomena to see the essence.
She asked Cai Shengnan's phone number from Luo Jialan, walked to a corner of the room, and started calling Cai Shengnan.
The phone over there rang several times before Cai Shengnan picked it up.
It's an unknown number.
Cai Shengnan asked weakly: "Who is this?"
Jin Wanyi paused and said with a smile: "Are you Cai Shengnan, a lawyer? I am Jin Wanyi, and I am also a lawyer. Miss Luo Jialan wants me to be her lawyer. I would like to take the liberty to ask, how is your injury?"
Cai Shengnan's voice turned cold, "I just finished the injury examination and it has reached the category of minor injuries stipulated in the criminal law. If that's what you want to know."
The requirements for minor injuries stipulated in the criminal law are actually very strict. The bruises, redness and swelling caused by ordinary beatings are not actually minor injuries.
There are strict legal standards for determining minor injuries.
"Ah?! Is it really that serious?!" Jin Wanyi was shocked, "It was all... Miss Luo who beat her?"
Cai Shengnan hummed, sent the video of Luo Jialan beating her to Jin Wanyi, and scanned the doctor's injury report for her.
Jin Wanyi saw such an item on the doctor's injury examination report at a glance.
"...the cumulative length of blunt trauma to the scalp reached 6 centimeters."
This was the injury caused by Cai Shengnan's bump on the corner of the desk when Luo Jialan pushed him.
Based on this alone, the minor injuries stipulated in the criminal law are adequate.
The video of the beating, the doctor's injury examination report, and the status of Cai Shengnan and her father Cai Sumin in the legal profession all determined that Luo Jialan could not find anyone decent to represent her.
Jin Wanyi immediately returned the 100,000 advance payment to Luo Jialan and said, "Ms. Luo, I can't defend your case. I'm sorry, I'm leaving first."
Not only Jin Wanyi, but all the famous lawyers in the legal circles of the imperial capital avoided her.
Luo Jialan spent a whole day at the police station and made countless phone calls, but she couldn't find anyone willing to be her attorney.
Even if she offered a high price, no one would stand up for her.
She didn't know that on that day, the video of her beating her attorney had spread all over the Internet.
Lawyers across the country were filled with indignation and came out one after another to express their opinions. They would never defend this scumbag who beat up his own lawyer!
As a result, even some people who are tempted by such high legal fees will not dare to take the case.
Luo Jialan had no choice but to defend herself.
But what she said in front of the well-trained police officers was full of mistakes, and she didn't dare to tell the real reason why she beat Cai Shengnan, so the procuratorate here quickly filed a case again, charging her with intentional bodily harm.
At this time, the procuratorate discovered that there was already a case against Luo Jialan, that is, the crime of intentional homicide against Song Jinning, which was prosecuted by another procuratorate and had already been tried in court once.
This was another case committed during the interrogation. It is obvious that the suspect has a history of intentional injury.
The court hearing Song Jinning's case did not wait for new evidence within the stipulated time. It only knew that she had beaten her attorney again, so it did not plan to wait any longer and had already issued a first-instance verdict.
Luo Jialan was held in the detention center for 48 hours. After paying a bail, she was finally able to go home.
She didn't know how it got to this point.
Sitting in the car, she covered her face and cried bitterly, feeling terrified all day long.
Is all this going to be lost
Not just her vast wealth, but her personal freedom? !
Why wouldn't these people let her go
Like Gu Nianzhi, she was an orphan without a father or mother. Why would Huo Shaoheng rather have Gu Nianzhi than her? !
At least she still has the huge trust fund left by Huo Guanyuan. Although it is not more than Huo Shaoheng's property, who would think it is too much money
Luo Jialan only felt that the whole world was sorry for her.
In despair, she picked up her cell phone and desperately called and sent text messages to the strange number left by Yamaguchi Aiko, telling her what she had experienced and that she was almost forced into a desperate situation, but Gu Nianzhi was getting engaged to Huo Shaoheng. Already…
Luo Jialan actually regarded this number as a tree hole.
All the unknown thoughts that cannot be said in front of others are poured into that number.
She had a hysterical fit and finally felt better.
When she arrived at Xishan Villa, she got out of the car with a dull face and returned to her home.
The first thing after arriving home is to take a shower and change clothes.
After coming out of the bathroom, Luo Jialan habitually picked up the phone and took a look, and suddenly her breathing stopped.
The four-digit number that had been unreachable actually texted her back!
She hurriedly opened the phone, entered the text message and read it carefully.
As expected, Yamaguchi Aiko did not ignore death!
The first text message: [Gu Nianzhi has been looking for the whereabouts of her father Gu Xiangwen.]
The second text message: [I will tell you the whereabouts of Gu Xiangwen, and you can use this information to exchange her freedom from prosecution.]
The third text message: [Only in this way will they see clearly Gu Nianzhi's face of "faking public benefit for personal gain".]
