Lawyer's character

"However... the procuratorate seems not satisfied with the verdict and may protest." Fang Yi reminded.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Lawyer Fang." After finishing speaking, Zhang Fengcai hung up the phone.

After Fang Yi put away his phone, he turned around and saw Zhou Ying, who was panting.

"Lawyer Fang, you are walking too fast, I can't even keep up." Zhou Ying put down the case file and waved her hand.

"Have you ever written a summary of the case?" Fang Yi said with a smile.

"No, what is a case closing summary?" Zhou Ying asked confused.

"In fact, it is very simple. Just write down the general situation of the case, then extract the disputed points, briefly write down the opinions of the prosecution and defense and the court's final determination, and summarize the experience during the trial. A summary of the closing of this case I leave it to you, practice your hand. At the same time, you can also practice your writing skills." Fang Yi said with a smile.

"This doesn't sound easy!" Zhou Ying said, blinking her big eyes.

A few days after Zhang Wen's criminal verdict was issued, Fang Yi received news that the procuratorate had protested.

Zhang Fengcai was worried that his son would be imprisoned again. Without waiting for Fang Yi to contact him, he ran over and asked to continue entrusting Fang Yi to represent his son Zhang Wen in the second trial of the illegal business case of similar business. Fang Yi received another 30,000 yuan in legal fees.

Half a month after signing the entrustment formalities, the second instance of Zhang Wen’s illegal business case of the same type began. The procuratorate still used the same rhetoric, with nothing new. Fang Yi followed the prescription and reiterated the opinions expressed during the first trial. Because there was no dispute between the two parties regarding the facts of the case, the case moved forward very quickly during the trial.

After deliberation, the collegial panel of the second instance held that the facts identified in the original judgment were clear, the evidence was reliable and sufficient, and the trial procedures were legal. The grounds for protest cannot be established. The final ruling dismissed the appeal and upheld the original verdict.

After the trial, Zhang Wenwei expressed his gratitude and treated Fang Yi and Zhou Ying to a feast.

Zhang Wen's case has come to a successful conclusion. On the way back to the prison, Fang Yi told Li Shuming the verdict.

A few days after the second-instance criminal verdict on Zhang Wen’s case was issued, Li Shuming and Fang Anzhi flew to Germany. Fang Yi was left alone at home. Whenever he saw the empty small bedroom, he always felt empty in his heart, as if he had lost something.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon that day, Fang Yi had just returned from the detention center. Before he could sit still, the cell phone on the table rang. It was an old acquaintance, Xu Zengshou.

"Old Xu, are you studying the sociology of lost girls again?" Fang Yi joked.

"Don't talk nonsense, when did I study that..." Xu Zengshou's voice was very low, sounding a little guilty, as if he was afraid of being heard. He followed him and said: "I have something to ask you, serious business."

Fang Yili was happy and thought to himself: This old Xu is interesting. Last time he was detained by the county police for singing. He said he was doing social practice to study sociology, but he turned around and refused to admit it.

"How serious is that? You tell me and I listen." Fang Yi teased.

"Give me an address and I'll find you. My brother-in-law was arrested by the police." Xu Zengshou said.

"What crime?" Fang Yi asked.

"I'll tell you when I get there. I can't explain it in a sentence or two. Is it convenient for you today?" Xu Zengshou said.

"It's convenient, I'll send you the address. Wait a minute." After Fang Yi hung up the phone, he sent him the address of the law firm.

More than an hour later, Xu Zengshou walked into Wanhua United Law Firm.

"Old Fang, you are exchanging a shotgun for a cannon. Your law firm is quite big!" Xu Zengshou said with a smile.

"It's okay, you came here alone." Fang Yi said with a smile.

"My wife is here too and has gone to the bathroom. Be careful what you say later and don't let anything slip out of what happened before." Xu Zengshou said in a low voice.

"What happened before! I don't even remember it." Fang Yi said with a smile.

Xu Zengshou smiled and patted Xia Yi on the shoulder: "That's interesting. Let's get together in the evening and go to Huihuang to find Li Shuming to fight against the rich."

Fang Yi smiled and looked up and down at his old colleague Lao Xu. He was thin and bookish, and his eyes still sparkled with cleverness. It seems that Xu Zengshou has not changed, he is still the sociologist who is like a breath of fresh air.

While the two were talking, the door opened and a woman in her forties came in. The visitor is none other than Xu Zengshou’s daughter-in-law, Zhou Dalian

"Sister-in-law, you're here too. Sit down quickly." Fang Yi greeted warmly.

"Fang Yi, this time we came here and caused trouble for you again." Zhou Dalian said, pushing Xu Zengshou aside and sitting opposite Fang Yi: "It's better to come out of the university. I was a colleague who had a good relationship with our old Xu. Now they have all resigned, and all of them are doing well. Only our old Xu is still stupid enough to teach in the university."

Xu Zengshou curled his lips secretly and said to himself: I majored in sociology, which is a university subject. Apart from teaching at the university to earn a living, what else can I do? Is it possible that I should set up a street stall? The city management won’t let me! Then again, what's wrong with being a university teacher? After all, the retirement salary is high and there is security in old age.

Glancing at Xu Zengshou, Fang Yi felt amused. Then he looked at Zhou Dalian and said, "Sister-in-law, Lao Xu said that your brother was arrested. What's going on?"

"Hey! Don't mention it. My unsatisfactory brother never went to work all day long. He always wanted to make a fortune, but he ended up spending some counterfeit money. He wanted to exchange the counterfeit money for real money to make a big fortune. He did something that is unethical and evil. , but was found out and arrested..." Zhou Dalian told the story of the case with a look of hatred on his face.

Zhou Dalian has a younger brother named Zhou Dagen. Zhou Dagen works as a fitter in a factory in the county. He is not very talented and is lazy, but he is very high-spirited, his intentions are as high as the sky, and his life is as good as paper. It is very suitable to describe him.

At the end of last year, Zhou Dagen took a train trip with a group of friends and met a friend who was said to be very wild. The friend encouraged him to exchange counterfeit currency for real currency to make money.

After he came back, Zhou Dagen started to think about it, but he had no money in his hand. His wife was very concerned about the family's money, and he didn't dare to tell her that he was going to do something illegal, so he borrowed money from everywhere and then contacted that person. A friend got 10,000 yuan in counterfeit currency.

Zhou Dagen was worried with 10,000 yuan in counterfeit coins in his pocket. He first went to a small shop in a neighboring village and bought a pack of Hongmei cigarettes. He gave the shop owner 100 yuan on the pretext that he had no change. After collecting the money, the landlady put it in the money box, gave him a pack of red plums, and gave him ninety-six yuan in change.

Zhou Dagen was very happy when he saw the return money. On his way to work in the county, he bought some cooked food and a bottle of Fenjiu wine in a small supermarket. While paying the money and waiting for change, the owner of the small supermarket discovered something was wrong with the money in his hand. He took out the money detector, and it turned out to be counterfeit money.

When Zhou Dagen saw that he was discovered, he picked up his things and wanted to run away. As a result, he was grabbed by the boss's son and thrown to the ground. After the boss called the police, the police soon arrived and arrested Zhou Dagen.

The police searched Zhou Dagen's body and found 98 counterfeit notes with a denomination of 100 yuan. Including the one in the hand of the small supermarket owner and the one taken from a small shop in a neighboring village, the total amount was 100. The city branch of the People's Bank of China determined that these 100 banknotes were counterfeit.

Subsequently, the public security organ transferred the case to the Procuratorate for the crime of possessing and using counterfeit currency.
