"Didn't Sirov ask to see a lawyer?" Lu Ming suddenly asked.
Zhang Xianhe was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "It seems not. When we first brought him here, he seemed to be asking for a lawyer, but I didn't hear it clearly. It should be our conditioned reflex that we hear nonsense as a lawyer or something."
Lu Ming did not follow his excuse and said with a smile: "When he asked for a lawyer, did he specify the lawyer?"
Zhang Xianhe hesitated and shook his head.
"Then call the Legal Aid Office and ask them to arrange a lawyer immediately." Lu Ming smiled, "We still have to protect the suspect's legal rights."
Zhang Xianhe had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll make the arrangements."
Lu Ming nodded.
In fact, even if I were in the 21st century in my previous life, under the European and American system, if the suspect was being interrogated and investigated, as long as the other party did not actively ask for a lawyer, the police would definitely not take the initiative to arrange a lawyer for you. This was not against the rules.
Even if the other party asks to see a lawyer, we will do everything we can to delay the process as much as possible and try to obtain a satisfactory confession before the lawyer arrives.
Not to mention the world we live in today.
"The horse ticket, I lost it... No, no, I, I picked it up! I found a paper bag in the trash can, and it was full of money..." Sirov finally couldn't stand it anymore.
Lu Ming smiled. Failure to report lost property is considered a crime according to the laws in some regions of the empire, and Donghai happens to be one of them.
In the past, the West was also divided into different countries, provinces and states, and each had different laws and regulations on this.
Of course, it also depends on the specific circumstances, and ultimately on who has better arguments, the prosecution or the defense.
But in general, in Donghai, failure to report lost items can be prosecuted as illegal possession.
Wang Xiaohu sneered, "According to your spending records over the past two years, the money you picked up is at least 10,000 yuan. You rent a luxury apartment and spend money lavishly. The gifts you gave to your girlfriend alone are worth 2,000 to 3,000 yuan."
"In the East China Sea, you have committed the crime of illegal possession, and the circumstances are serious, it is a first-degree crime of illegal possession, and the maximum penalty is death penalty!"
Sirov's face turned pale. "How could it be? How could it be?"
Lu Ming smiled. This was of course a bit scary to him.
In the interrogation room, Liu Yannian sighed, "Mr. Sirov, it seems I can't help you anymore."
He and Wang Xiaohu stood up, packed up the transcript, and prepared to leave.
"No, I said, I said, someone, someone gave it to me, and that money was my salary..." Seeing the two were about to leave, Sirov shouted regardless.
The situation was settled. Lu Ming smiled, took two steps back, sat on the sofa, and pointed to the seat next to him: "Annie, come and sit down. Don't get tired."
Zhang Xianhe, who had just returned from calling the Legal Aid Office, happened to see this scene. He was stunned, but it seemed inappropriate to leave.
Han Annie also looked at Lu Ming helplessly. It was obvious that this guy just liked to show how much he cared about her. Maybe it was because they were old acquaintances in Wuan. She wanted to send him to the gallows at that time, but now she became his subordinate. He was a little proud, so he always pretended to care about her, but if others saw it, it was like he was a lecherous boss.
"Thank you, sir. I'll just stand here!" Han Annie's face remained expressionless.
Zhang Xianhe breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and stood in front of the glass wall.
At this time, Sirov had already explained in a long-winded manner how he came to Donghai, met a mysterious man in the casino, gave him money, asked him to pursue the assistant of the big star Nicole, and then, found out about Nicole's movements and reported every detail to this mysterious man.
He said that the mysterious man who met him was wearing a mask the whole time, but he felt that he was a reporter from a gossip newspaper.
"Who would believe what you wrote? Which gossip magazine would give you such a large sum of money? With that much money, wouldn't those paparazzi just eat and sleep on the streets and stare at their targets? Give it to you? No, a tabloid reporter with that much money would have quit long ago!" Wang Xiaohu stared, "And why are you wearing a mask and a black robe? Are you filming a movie?!"
Sirov stammered, "Why is there no money in the gossip magazine? Maybe it's the reporter of New Life!"
Wang Xiaohu was stunned and asked, "What the hell is "New Life"?!"
Lu Ming was so angry that his nose almost got crooked, but before he could say anything, Han Annie tapped on the glass gently.
Liu Yannian stood up and walked out, closing the door of the interrogation room tightly.
"Prosecutor Liu, New Life is a high-end women's magazine. I bought a copy this afternoon because I thought the cover was interesting. It's very expensive, but it's not a gossip magazine. He must have seen it before and knew that it was expensive. It's full of color pages and there are posters of beautiful women. He thought it was a gossip magazine."
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, then nodded in his heart. Han Annie was attracted by the content of the cover just after she arrived, which showed that this magazine was well run.
We also know that Han Annie felt that no one present would know about this women's magazine, so she took the initiative to tell the interrogators inside. At this time, time is very precious, and the sooner the people inside know, the better. If she asks her superiors for instructions and explains things to her superiors first, a delay of a few minutes may cause problems in the interrogation, and the pressure and atmosphere that were originally put on the suspect will be interrupted.
Well, he has the potential to be an independent prosecutor.
"Annie, well done, very good!" Lu Ming said with a smile, his tone was even more doting. Somehow, he felt it was fun to lick her like this in front of the other subordinates.
Han Annie looked helpless.
Zhang Xian and the team leader standing by could only pretend not to hear.
Liu Yannian was stunned for a moment, then hurried back to the interrogation room and whispered a few words in Wang Xiaohu's ear.
Wang Xiaohu stood up. "Okay, we have nothing to talk about. New Life is a lifestyle magazine and never cares about celebrity gossip! Sirov, I'm officially notifying you now that the prosecutor will charge you with first-degree illegal possession! The maximum penalty is death penalty!"
Liu Yannian and Wang Xiaohu walked out together and closed the door of the confinement room tightly.
Inside, Sirov's face was pale and he was grabbing his hair tightly. He was fixed to the table with handcuffs and shackles and could not move too much.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" Sirov shouted loudly.
"Well, it's still a little bit off!" Lu Ming smiled and said, "Bring the cards, let's play for a while!"
Han Annie opened the door and went out, and when she came back, she brought a deck of playing cards.
On the sofa and coffee table, Lu Ming motioned for everyone to sit down and said, "Let's play the game of hoeing the earth! I'll teach you!" There is no such way to play in this world.
After a look, he said, "How about this, Annie and my family, four families will play! The loser will treat you to a midnight snack later!"
Wang Xiaohu suddenly stood up and said, "Look at him!"
But inside, Sirov, after shouting for a long time that he wanted to confess but no one paid attention to him, saw paper and pen on the interrogation table. His eyes immediately lit up, and he picked up the pen and started writing quickly.
"It's too easy to break down!" Lu Ming shook his head.
Just then, someone knocked on the door. "Commissioner Lu, a lawyer named Li Dagui said he received a call from the Legal Aid Department and came to see the client."
Zhang Xianhe, the team leader, looked at Sirov who picked up the paper and pen and said immediately, "Delay it!"
Lu Ming waved his hand and said, "Bring him here!"
After a while, there was a gentle knock on the outer door. An assistant prosecutor pushed the door open and a fat white man walked in.
Lu Ming looked at him and smiled: "Lawyer Li Dagui from Tang-Li Law Firm, I've heard of your name!"
Then he turned to Team Leader Zhang Xianhe and smiled, "The Legal Aid Department is really serious. I heard that it was someone from our office who was conducting a special investigation. The lawyer they assigned is also very capable. Lawyer Li Dagui is a second-tier lawyer."
A hint of worry flashed across Zhang Xianhe's eyes.
Indeed, the vast majority of lawyers who queue up for legal aid all year round are in the first stage, and most of them just live a life of idleness and wait for death, like Wang Da'an.
The Legal Aid Department saw that the suspect was being investigated by a special case team and was being interrogated directly by the prosecutor, so in order to protect the suspect's legal rights and interests, they assigned a powerful lawyer.
The fat white guy had a red face. He was obviously drinking in a restaurant when the law firm called the restaurant. He was full of impatience and pointed at the assistant prosecutor who brought him in when he entered the door. "I tell you, if my client is not in this door and you are deliberately delaying time, I will leave immediately and file a complaint against you. I will also apply to the court to invalidate all your evidence today!"
Obviously, being called to take on a bad legal aid case in the middle of drinking was very unpleasant.
Hearing Lu Ming talking, he was stunned and looked over with sleepy eyes. When he saw Lu Ming, he stood up and walked towards him with a smile to shake hands with him.
He shuddered, and his sleepy eyes seemed to become clear immediately, without a trace of drunkenness, and he stammered, "Yes, it's Lawyer Lu, why are you here? Do you also have a client under investigation?" Immediately, he seemed to have more confidence, looking at the prosecutor who was still holding the door and waiting for him to enter, "What's wrong with you, where is Lawyer Lu's client, why don't you deal with it quickly! Are you crazy?!"
Lu Ming smiled and said, "I've heard from several of my disciples that you're pretty good."
"Hey, you're too kind!" Completely different from when he was facing the prosecutor, Li Dagui immediately put on an apologetic smile.
Lu Ming smiled again and said, "Okay, go meet your client. My team members are handling this case."
Li Dagui was stunned for a moment, and finally came to his senses. "Ah, I heard that you are helping the Supreme Procuratorate with some case?"
Lu Ming smiled and said, "This is the case. Okay, go meet your client!" He stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation.
Li Dagui's face turned pale, and suddenly he cried out, "Oh, no, no, I seem to have eaten too much seafood and drank too much beer, and I have a stomachache! Quick, quick, where is the bathroom?" He picked up the bag, covered his stomach, turned around and ran out, looking like he was in a hurry to find a toilet.
Lu Ming was stunned and shook his head helplessly. He really wasn't trying to scare him. He originally thought that it would be okay for the representative lawyer to meet the client. At most, he could interrogate Nasirov in front of the representative lawyer and suppress the representative lawyer to extract important confessions.
"Take Lawyer Li to the bathroom!" Lu Ming said to the assistant prosecutor who was still holding the door handle and looked a little confused.
The young prosecutor quickly agreed, went out to catch up with Li Dagui, and took him to the bathroom.
Lu Ming shook his head helplessly and turned around, only to see Zhang Xianhe smiling with a look in his eyes. So that's why, no wonder. I admire you, I really admire you.
Lu Ming was even more helpless. I really didn’t mean this, okay
Han Annie bit her red lips. This guy has been here for less than a year, and he has scared the judicial personnel here. What a bad guy. He is still as bad as he was in Wu'an, although he has never killed anyone.
