Lawyer's character

Chapter 525 What about cheating money?

At the end of last year, Zhao Changguang went to the supermarket to buy oranges and came back. Because it had just snowed the night before, the road was very slippery. The northwest wind picked up the snow on the ground and made people blind. At this time, the county machine processing plant Zhou Hong happened to be returning home from work. Because the road was slippery, she accidentally slipped while riding her bicycle and hit Zhao Changguang. The two fell into a ditch on the side of the road.

The orange in Zhao Changguang's hand fell to the ground. Fortunately, the snow was relatively heavy and the ditch on the roadside was not deep, so the two of them were not seriously injured. After Zhou Hong got up, she hurriedly apologized to Zhao Changguang.

Zhao Changguang saw that Zhou Hong was in her forties and still had her charm, so he committed an old habit and took the opportunity to seduce Zhou Hong. For a while, the two of them had a very interesting chat.

Zhao Changguang kept talking about false claims, saying that he was a judge in the provincial court and had many connections and knew many company owners in the city. Zhou Hong's eyes suddenly lit up, and she insisted on inviting him to dinner and apologizing.

Zhao Changguang hadn't been out of a restaurant for a long time, so he played hard to get and was forced into a restaurant not far away by Zhou Hong. After dinner, Zhou Hong told Zhao Changguang that his son had been working in the city after graduating from college and didn't have a serious job. Ask him to help introduce you to a stable job.

Afraid that Zhao Changguang would not agree, Zhou Hong bought him two more flowers. After Zhao Changguang pretended to refuse, he accepted the cigarettes and promised to help Zhou Hong campaign and arrange for her son to work in the provincial court's fleet, first as a non-staff member, and later find an opportunity to become a full-time employee.

Zhou Hong was overjoyed when she heard this. She also knew that it was not as simple as Zhao Changguang said, but she didn't have much money. When she saw Zhao Changguang's eyes always turning to her, she had an idea. She was divorced anyway, so as long as her son could have a stable job, she didn't have to worry about so much.

But she was still a little worried about Zhao Changguang. She was willing to give up two cigarettes, but for what...she hesitated. Zhao Changguang saw her concerns, so he said it was getting late and he had something to do, left his contact information and left.

Zhao Changguang returned to the temporary rented residence and thought about how to dispel Zhou Hong's concerns. Finally, he came up with an idea. He found someone to get a judge's uniform, and then called Zhou Hong and lied about taking her to the provincial court to handle matters. When he arrived at the court, he asked Zhou Hong to wait in the lobby. He secretly hid in the bathroom for an hour before coming out, and then left the Provincial High Court with Zhou Hong.

On the way back, Zhou Hong saw Zhao Changguang frowning and asked how things were going. Zhao Changguang lied that there were personnel adjustments now and that he would have to wait a few months for the personnel adjustments to be completed before he could arrange a job for her son. Zhou Hong firmly believed in this. A few days after returning, the two lived together.

Two months later, Zhao Changguang left Zhou Hong on the grounds of job transfer, and then changed his phone number.

Later, Zhao Changguang met the landlord Zou Jie because of renting a house. Zhao Changguang once again wore a judge's uniform and lied that he was from the provincial court. He also claimed that he and the director of the city's transportation bureau were classmates and could help Zou Jie's daughter get transferred to the transportation bureau.

Zou Jie was overjoyed when she heard this. The most worrying thing for the couple was their daughter's job. After graduating from college, her daughter had been taking public exams but could never get a job. Now when Zhao Changguang said this, he immediately treated him as a guest of honor. Zhao Changguang said that he needed to smoothen the relationship. For the sake of reputation, he asked Zou Jie for 5,000 yuan. Shortly thereafter the game began to disappear.

In June this year, Zhao Changguang was wearing a judge's uniform when he went out to buy daily necessities. It happened to rain and he took shelter at the bus stop. At this time, a young woman came to him with an address and asked for directions. After asking, I found out that the young woman's name was Zhou Yuan, and she went to the city's court to file a complaint over a family property dispute.

Zhao Changguang saw that Zhou Yuan was quite pretty, so he took the complaint and pretended to flip it over, then lied that he was from the provincial court and could help her appeal. Zhou Yuan believed in his words and was soon seduced by his sweet words and moved in with him.

As time passed, Zhou Yuan became suspicious of Zhao Changguang's behavior. Taking advantage of Zhao Changguang's absence, Zhou Yuan went to the provincial court to ask about Zhao Changguang. The provincial high court found no such person. Only then did Zhou Yuan realize that she had been deceived. After coming out of the court, she went to the public security organ to report the crime.

When Zhao Changguang returned to his residence after receiving Zhou Yuan's call, several uniformed men with large brimmed hats appeared in front of him, and a pair of cold handcuffs were cuffed on his hands. Zhao Changguang knew that he had gone in again this time, so he confessed to the crime he committed.

"How much money did you defraud in total?" Fang Yi asked.

"Just five thousand yuan, really." Zhao Changguang said.

"Have you been sentenced before?" Fang Yi asked.

"I was previously sentenced to five years in prison for fraud and pretense," Zhao Changguang said.

"How long has it been since you were released?" Fang Yi asked.

"It's...almost four years!" Zhao Changguang said.

After walking out of the detention center door, Zhou Ying whispered: "Lawyer Fang, I think that guy must not be telling the truth. There must be more than this."

"You can see it too!" Fang Yi said with a smile.

"Of course, his eyes are so big and he mumbles around when talking, there must be something wrong." Zhou Ying said.

"How to put it, flies don't bite seamless eggs, both sides have their own agenda, otherwise Zhao Changguang wouldn't be able to succeed. Since the victim doesn't come to report the crime, then why should we look for trouble?" Fang Yi said.

"Well, it is indeed true. You have to eat from whomever you eat." Zhou Ying nodded.

"To be a lawyer, you must first have a professional spirit, and of course you must have a conscience. Just like a doctor, if you know that the other person is a person who has done many evil things, why don't you treat him? Professionals are all the same, they must be dedicated." Fang Yidao.

"Well, I have called the procuratorate. Zhao Changguang's case file has been transferred to the court. I have an appointment to go to the court tomorrow morning to review the file." Zhou Ying said.

Two days later, in the conference room of Wanhua United Law Firm.

"Director Zhao, these are the circumstances of the case. From our analysis, your brother Zhao Changguang has indeed committed a crime. The Procuratorate has accused your brother of fraud and pretentiousness. It is recommended that several crimes be punished at the same time. We think there is something wrong with your brother's behavior. It should constitute the crime of pretentiousness and deception." Fang Yi explained to Director Zhao opposite.

"How many years will the sentence be?" Director Zhao asked with concern.

The last time his brother was charged with fraud and pretentiousness, he was sentenced to five years. He thought that if he was convicted of only one crime this time, he might be able to reduce his sentence by a few years.

“In accordance with Article 279 of the Criminal Law, anyone who pretends to be a staff member of a state agency to commit fraud shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention, or public surveillance. If the circumstances are serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years.

Your brother has repeatedly defrauded others of money and other illegal benefits in just a few months. The circumstances are serious and he is a repeat offender. You must be mentally prepared. Zhao Changguang may be sentenced to more than three years in prison.

Of course, during the trial defense, we will defend him and strive for the most favorable verdict. "Fang Yi said.

Director Zhao thought to himself: Are you mentally prepared? As early as nine years ago, I was mentally prepared. Zhao Changguang was a useless thing. Just a few years after it came out, it was still cheating money and other things, hey!
