blank count

Bypassing the chaotic dance floor and passing through the secret passage, Jin Zhou and Yang Shiyu came to the most magnificent VIP area in the entire bar.

There are large and small boxes in the VIP area. The small ones can only accommodate a dozen people, which is suitable for small gatherings, while the large ones have enough space, so there is no problem in holding a reception.

The fake casino is set up in the largest box, which can spread out eight gaming tables and accommodate hundreds of people.

Pushing open the heavy box door, noisy voices and the stifling smell of smoke came in, Jin Zhou raised his hand and waved away the smell that Yang Shiyu didn't like, glanced at the situation in the box, and asked the little brother guarding the door. : "Where is Wang Darong?"

"I lost everything as soon as I came here." The younger brother said, "I owed others thousands of dollars, and now I am withdrawing money outside, and my brother is following me."

Without Jin Zhou present, the younger brothers naturally did not dare to act rashly and could only keep a close eye on him.

Jin Zhou nodded. Since Wang Darong owed money to others, it is not surprising that someone followed him, and it would not arouse his vigilance.However, it is still inconvenient to arrest people outside, and we have to wait for people to come back before doing it.

And once Wang Darong withdraws money from the ATM, the police will be able to find out his whereabouts, so Jin Zhou must also make a quick decision.

"Let someone bring Wang Darong back as soon as possible." Jin Zhou confessed, then walked into the box, blending in with half-truths and half-fake gamblers.

Most of the people in the venue are brothers that Jin Zhou is familiar with, but other than that, this fake casino still attracts some real gamblers.

Jin Zhou has seen many gamblers who lost their wives and children because of gambling. These people live in poverty, but they still gamble well.

Jin Zhou once also felt strange, don't they really know that gambling is an abyss?It turned out not to be, they just didn't want to admit that they had chosen a wrong path.

Jin Zhou knew these people well, so he could come up with such a method that even the police dared not use to lure Wang Darong into the bait.

"Brother Jin." People passing by Jin Zhou greeted him, and then eyed Yang Shiyu behind him gossipingly.

Jin Zhou suddenly realized that in just a short while, the news that he brought his wife here should have spread throughout the bar.He didn't intend to do this at first, he just wanted to tease Yang Shiyu, but now that the matter has spread, he certainly can't let his brothers think that he has bad eyesight.

Jin Zhou made a small calculation in his heart, and was thinking about how to make others notice Yang Shiyu's unusual temperament, when he heard Yang Shiyu behind him ask, "Are you sure this is a fake casino?"

"Yes." Jin Zhou stopped and looked back at Yang Shiyu, "If Wang Darong is caught, this fight will be over soon."

"What about the money Wang Darong lost?" Yang Shiyu asked.

"Brothers, please have supper." The other people's money will be returned, and no money transactions will be involved.But for the sake of Wang Darong, Jin Zhou must reward the brothers who helped him.

"Jin Zhou." Yang Shiyu frowned, looking as if he couldn't tolerate any sand in his eyes, "You are illegal."

Jin Zhou had fought many lawsuits in the district people's court, but he didn't know whether it was a coincidence or not, he had never met Yang Shiyu before.

Yang Shiyu is a judge of the criminal court, and he only hears criminal cases, and most of the criminal cases have clear facts, so there is almost no room for lawyers to play their role.

Every time Jin Zhou came to see Yang Shiyu in court, he would imagine how he would choose his defense strategy if he were a defense lawyer, but seeing Yang Shiyu tried so many cases, he rarely saw Yang Shiyu Adopt the defense opinion of the lawyer.

This is not because the judge has a subjective bias. It is just that during the review and prosecution stage, the procuratorate has objectively determined the nature of the case. If a lawyer wants to reverse the case, he can only find loopholes in the procuratorate, which is very difficult.

But things are different now.

The facts of the current "case" are extremely complicated. It's not that Yang Shiyu said that it is illegal, then it is illegal.

Jin Zhou took the time to ask Yang Shiyu: "What crime do you want to convict me, Your Honor?"

Yang Shiyu glanced at the surrounding situation, still frowning, but did not speak.

"Gathering a crowd to gamble?" Jin Zhou casually accused himself of a crime, "But I didn't do it for profit."

If it is illegal to construct a false gambling scene, then such a plot should not appear in any film and television drama.Although there are unknown real gamblers mixed in this fake casino, even if these people are caught, they will be administratively detained at most and will not constitute a crime.

The reason why Jin Zhou is so comfortable is because there is a lot of room for defense in this matter, and Yang Shiyu can't judge him as he wants.

"But if you don't return Wang Darong's money, it can constitute fraud." Yang Shiyu said.

"Has the victim reported the crime?" Jin Zhou asked.

"Filing a case can bypass the victim." Yang Shiyu said.

"Without a victim, how can we investigate the facts of the case?" Jin Zhou spoke faster and faster, and an indescribable excitement hit his brain.

It was an addictive feeling that Jin Zhou had never experienced in any court debate.He secretly hoped that Yang Shiyu would continue to speak, that he would be unable to retaliate, that he would be sentenced to various serious crimes, and imprisoned indefinitely...

However, Yang Shiyu fell silent, because it was indeed as Jin Zhou said, Wang Darong didn't know how much money he lost in the bet, and everything was empty talk.

"Return the money to the person after you catch him." Yang Shiyu stopped discussing with Jin Zhou, "You are a lawyer, so don't keep thinking about taking advantage of legal loopholes."

The court play had just started, and the judge quit. The feeling of excitement receded like a tide, but Jin Zhou was only bored for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth in a good mood, looked at Yang Shiyu and said, "You know I'm a lawyer. .”

This was the first time Jin Zhou heard Yang Shiyu admit his status as a lawyer.

The relationship between people is very delicate.

Two WeChat friends who haven’t been in touch for a long time can only learn about each other’s current situation through Moments, “I post on Moments, and you will know by default”—this is a one-sided cognition, only when the other party also says that they know Only then will cognition become consensus.

Yang Shiyu was always indifferent to Jin Zhou, and Jin Zhou could only acquiesce that Yang Shiyu knew that he had become a lawyer.

Even though his default was 99.99% certain, it still felt different from hearing Yang Shiyu say it himself.

Now the one-way acquiescence has become a two-way tacit understanding, and Jin Zhou can finally be sure that at a certain moment or multiple moments that he didn't know, he had appeared in Yang Shiyu's thoughts.

"I'm not blind." Yang Shiyu's eyes rested on the end of Jin Zhou's eyes, which were raised up happily for some reason.

"Yes, you saw me." Jin Zhou said with a smile, "Didn't you call me a hooligan before?"

"If you become a lawyer just to take advantage of legal loopholes," Yang Shiyu said, "that's no different from a hooligan."

Whether it's a lawyer or a gangster, Jin Zhou doesn't care anyway.He wrapped his arms around Yang Shiyu's shoulders, and hung half of his body on Yang Shiyu's body like a boneless: "Don't be so serious, Judge Yang, go, I'll show you a few games."

There was a Sic Bo gambling table next to the two of them. Jin Zhou hooked Yang Shiyu's shoulders and led him over. The younger brother at the table immediately wanted to give up his seat, but Jin Zhou pushed him back and just took it from the table. Picking up a chip, he asked Yang Shiyu, "Which side should you bet on?"

Gently flipping the chips back and forth between the backs of Jin Zhou's fingers, like finger acrobatics, the movements are skillful.

Yang Shiyu lowered his eyes, looked at the skillful fingers, frowned and asked, "Do you often play with these?"

"Play." Jin Zhou said casually, "Huang is good at gambling and drugs."

The lowered gaze instantly turned to Jin Zhou's face, full of shock, disbelief and a little disbelief.Jin Zhou was amused by Yang Shiyu's expression, and laughed out loud: "You believe what I say, how do you become a judge?"

As soon as the words fell, Jin Zhou felt a pain in the back of his neck.He had been hanging on Yang Shiyu's body all the time, but it was so convenient that Yang Shiyu grabbed the back of his neck like a wild cat.

"Hey, take it easy, brothers are watching!" Jin Zhou frowned, stood up straight, and said in a low voice, "You should save me some face!"

Huzi has already misunderstood, but he can't let the other brothers misunderstand.

However, Yang Shiyu did not let go of Jin Zhou. Instead, he turned his head to the other side with force, and said in a deep voice, "It's Wang Darong."

Jin Zhou followed Yang Shiyu's line of sight, and saw a middle-aged man with a thin figure and mischievous eyebrows walking into the box, looking around and observing the situation at the gambling table.

Jin Zhou couldn't help being a little dazed. The last time he saw Wang Darong was at the trial site of his parents' car accident case.

Wang Darong was detained by the judicial police and brought to the court. As soon as he spoke, he began to wipe his tears to express his apology to Jin Zhou's family.

At the beginning, Jin Zhou couldn't understand why Wang Darong killed two people with his car, but only served six years in jail.

In order to take care of his emotions, the judge in charge of the trial specially explained to him, because most of the crimes of causing traffic accidents are negligence, and the subjective intention is relatively small, which is very different from the crime of intentional homicide.

Jin Zhou really didn't feel Wang Darong's malice towards their family, and he always believed that the accident that year was an accident.

But now looking at Wang Darong who was indulging in having fun in the casino, he only felt a chill enveloping his whole body, and he knew clearly that this chill was his malice towards Wang Darong.

"...Jin Zhou...Jin Zhou!"

Yang Shiyu's voice suddenly pulled back Jin Zhou's thoughts. He threw away the chips in his hand and raised his chin to the brothers waiting for the signal: "Catch someone."
