i gave myself away

How long does it take for two people to go from being strangers to being close friends?Some people use it for a lifetime, and some people use it for several years.But for Shi Mo and Xie Jincheng, it only took one night.

Maybe because of a bad mood, or because of the lack of friends who can see through their hearts, the two started talking about topics that had no intersection, and then they talked about interesting things in life and career.

"You handle all criminal and civil cases?" Xie Jincheng leaned against the guardrail, with one hand in his trouser pocket and the other holding coffee.

For a person who has been a monk for less than three years, the amount of knowledge reserves does not allow him to handle both criminal and civil cases.Shi Mo, as always, used poor excuses to cover up his weakness: "I only represent civil cases, and criminal cases are psychologically stressful. Don't you also only represent civil and commercial cases?"

"Basically, I only act as an agent for private lending and commercial cases." Xie Jincheng raised his coffee and drank it, with a casual tone as if he was talking about what he ate today.

Shi Mo was speechless.

Except for private lending disputes, civil cases do not involve money, while commercial cases are basically tens of thousands of bids. If you are lucky enough to receive a case with hundreds of millions of bids, you can get millions of lawyers' fees. Take tens of thousands at most.

For this reason, the lawyers fought hard and wanted to take on large-scale commercial cases.

However, Shi Mo, this bean sprouts, is not well-known and does not have enough professional level. The law firm assigned him basically pediatric civil cases, and the only commercial case he represented was yesterday's tit-for-tat sales contract dispute case with Xie Jincheng.The amount of the case was only over 300 million, and it was his turn to take over because the original lawyer had a conflict with the client and terminated the contract in a fit of anger.

Except for the shit luck this time, Shi Mo never had the chance to receive commercial cases, and the cases of private lending disputes were pitifully rare.

What is even more pitiful is that Shimo signed a fixed salary contract with the law firm. The cases are assigned by the law firm, and the law firm pays a fixed salary of more than 6000 per month. , the money you get is the same.

On the other hand, Xie Jincheng signed a contract that he would pay the law firm 100 million yuan a year, the case would come from the source, and the lawyer's fee would be collected by himself. As long as the case was accepted, the lawyer's fee would be charged to his account.He is famous and has a high reputation in the industry. Even if he stays at home and does not go out, large-scale commercial cases will take the initiative to fall into his arms.

The two are totally different.

If Xie Jincheng is Shi Mo's opponent, then his seemingly showing off words are enough to hurt Shi Mo's self-esteem.

Xie Jincheng seemed to realize that his words were inappropriate, and said apologetically, "Sorry, I didn't mean any harm."

"It's okay." Shi Mo didn't take it to heart. Isn't it because he has been a lawyer for a few years longer than him and is more famous than him. If he entered the industry earlier, he would also be a famous barrister.He took a sip of coffee and grinned, "We are all lawyers, there is no difference. We are all serving our clients under the leadership of the party."

Xie Jincheng laughed: "You are very optimistic. Some lawyers can't see it. They grab cases and run on their opponents. They look ugly."

"One can be short of money, but one cannot be short of conscience." Shi Mo said solemnly, "If the money is gone, tighten your belt, and you can save a few cents to buy steamed buns. If you don't have conscience, you're gone."

The corners of Xie Jincheng's mouth turned even higher. Once he accepted Shi Mo's stubborn personality, he actually found Shi Mo quite interesting: "Your pursuit is very special."

"What's the matter? If you scrape together a few cents, you can buy a few steamed buns and have a full meal."

A poor old man hobbled over to beg, clutching a few hard-earned dollars tightly in his hands full of vicissitudes. He was wearing tattered clothes, his back was bent, and he was humble to the bottom of the valley, but he was so inconspicuous But when they saw the money handed over by others, they shed tears of gratitude.

Shi Mo empathically understood the old man's desire for food money, and he readily took out a piece of money from his wallet and put it in the begging cup: "If you don't like a few cents, donate all the cents to benefit the people."

"You voted ten yuan?" Xie Jincheng raised his brows. How could Shi Mo be so generous when he was picking up thirty cents?

"What ten dollars? It's a thousand cents!" Shi Mo corrected boldly, "It sounds foreign."

Xie Jincheng was very helpless: "You are really generous."

"Thank you for the compliment, I've always been so generous." Shi Mo looked at the old man's hunched back, and sighed with sourness, "How can a person be without money in society, money is life, and if one life is left, it is enough And earn a penny."

Xie Jincheng took out one hundred yuan and put it into the begging cup: "As you wish, benefit the people."

Shi Mo was dumbfounded, as expected of a local tyrant, he voted [-] points without blinking, what a hero!

Unknowingly, the time approached 23:[-], Xie Jincheng threw away the empty coffee cup, turned to Shi Mo and said, "It's getting late, we'll talk when we have time."

Shi Mo yawned: "I'm going back too, I'm going to rest early."

The two walked towards the fork in the road at the same time, Xie Jincheng said goodbye to Shi Mo: "I wish you a smooth trial tomorrow."

Shi Mo nodded: "Thank you...yes, I think you look better without glasses, but you're still not as handsome as me." The fox with glasses is too funny, and you still look good without them - this is Shi Mo's Sincerely.

Xie Jincheng was noncommittal: "Does that mean I look ugly wearing glasses?"

"Who said that?" Shi Mo said, "I mean, the glasses don't match your temperament at all, and my appearance is far from mine. If you don't wear glasses, you can barely match my appearance." One hundred thousand miles."

Xie Jincheng looked at the "handsome" face that hindered the maintenance of law and order, smiled softly, patted Shi Mo on the head, and left with his hands in his trouser pockets.

When Shi Mo returned home, he could only smell a strong smell of alcohol, but his father was nowhere to be seen.He was so frightened that he ran out to look for it, and 10 minutes later in the corridor downstairs, he found his father, who was leaning against a corner with a wine bottle in his arms, drunk as mud.

"Dad, stop drinking." Shi Mo snatched his father's wine bottle and walked home with his arm, "What's the point of drinking all day, life is not the same."

"Hi... Interesting, you don't understand, hehe," the father raised his finger wobbly, and it took a long time to accurately place it in front of Shi Mo's nose, "You can see your mother after drinking."

"Then did my mother tell you anything?" Shi Mo carefully helped his father up the stairs, "Be careful of the steps, slow down."

"She said, hiccup...drink more and go see her." The father was drunk and hazy.

"Then you must be drunk, you must have mistaken the person." Shi Mo took out the key to open the door, and helped his father take off his shoes, "If that is really my mother, she will definitely tell you to drink less, pay attention to your health, and take care of your son more."

"Nonsense," my father blew his beard and stared, "She just said that I should go see her...vomit!" His father vomited without warning, and Shi Mo was startled, and he quickly helped his father to the toilet without cleaning the floor and clothes , Gently patted his father on the back, and waited until his father had almost vomited before he went to boil hot water for his father to drink.

The strong smell of alcohol filled the small house, and the stench spread to every corner. After waiting for his father to clean up, Shi Mo went back to clean up the filth.I didn’t fall asleep until 1:2 in the morning. Unexpectedly, at [-]:[-] in the morning, the half-awake father stumbled in, fumbled around, bumped something, and made a loud noise: "Uh...I..."

Shi Mo was woken up, he opened his eyes and saw his father in a daze, and said in surprise, "Dad? What's the matter..."

"Ugh..." His father vomited again, and Shi Mo immediately helped him to the bathroom, and he returned to the room to clean up after his father was fine.

"My God." The incandescent light was knocked down, and the mess in the room could be seen at a glance. Shi Mo opened his eyes wide, and there was a stack of documents for tomorrow's court session lying in the filth, as well as the USB flash drive where he saved the documents.

It's over, don't sleep tonight.

The next day, the alarm goes off so loud it almost makes the house jump.Shi Mo dazedly groped around the bed for a while, grabbed the phone, and was just about to turn off the alarm clock, when he looked at the time, he jumped out of bed in fright.

It was 08:30, only half an hour before the court session!

Shi Mo hurriedly washed and dressed, grabbed the desktop information and rushed out of the house, and received an angry call from the person on the way.

"Why don't you come here? The judge has urged you several times! If my wife divorces me, it's your responsibility!"

"I'm sorry Mr. Li, I was stuck in traffic for an hour, and the road just cleared up, I'm rushing over." Shi Mo opened his eyes and said nonsense.If it was someone else, he would definitely explain the reason honestly and apologize, but this person is not easy to mess with.

"Fuck, hurry up!"

After hanging up the phone, Shi Mo stepped up his horsepower and rushed to the middle courtyard.

This is a divorce dispute case of the second instance. Mr. Li insisted on refusing to divorce because of his bad temper and domestic violence. His wife sued the court for divorce, but the divorce was not granted in the first instance. Mrs. Li appealed to the second instance and continued to petition the court. Judgment of divorce.

If it wasn't assigned by the law firm, Shi Mo really didn't want to take this case. Mr. Li is like a powder keg, a little thing can cause an explosion, and his words are not pleasant. When he stated the case, he even used very vulgar words to describe him. Wife - bitch.

The original words are so.

"Damn that bitch, what did you say that the court will give her a fair divorce? Bah, the result is still not sentenced! If this bitch hadn't run away from her mother's house, I would have to kill her. Let me wait, once The second trial rejected it, and I will go to her natal house to kill this bitch."

Such an insult to his wife who has been married for many years shows how good his character is.

In fact, unless the domestic violence is serious and the relationship between husband and wife breaks down to the point of irreparability, the divorce will not be sentenced in the first instance out of consideration of maintaining the relationship between husband and wife and family harmony. This is a customary rule within the court.However, if the party insists on the petition and continues to appeal, and the court of second instance fails to mediate, it will be sentenced to divorce.

From Mr. Li's attitude towards his wife, we can see that Mr. Li will definitely lose in the second trial.

But even if the result is known, the lawsuit still has to be fought.

When Shi Mo arrived at the court, the trial had already started for 10 minutes. He had no time to wipe off his sweat, so he hurriedly took out the materials, took a closer look, and was dumbfounded.
