Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

   Chapter 109 Is working overtime a blessing? Analyze the case

   District Inspection Headquarters.

  2nd floor, pantry.

   There was a small tea table, but there were lightning flashes, and the fire was dancing.

   Zhang Wei and Xiao Baihe, their eyes met in the void, and this area felt anxious and distorted.

   This tense atmosphere made Tan Yingying and Lin Yumeng on the side so frightened that they didn't dare to make a sound.

  Tan Yingying is afraid of Zhang Wei, and the psychological shadow of her first court appearance is still there.

  Lin Yumeng was afraid of Xiao Baihe, she felt that the woman in front of her was terrifying.

   Do defense lawyers have to deal with such terrifying prosecutors?

   Is it too late for her to go home now?

   "15 months!"

   After a long time, it was Zhang Wei who spoke first.

   "We don't go to court and reach a plea agreement, this is my last bottom line!"

  Although he agreed with Ying Qingli for one year, Xiao Baihe refused to give in, and Zhang Wei could only give in for three months.

   "Huh, you really think I'm good to go!"

  Xiao Baihe sneered and immediately refused.

   But Tan Yingying pulled Xiao Baihe's sleeve with her hand.

   "Sister Lily, in fact, I think it's good to plead guilty, at least you don't have to file a lawsuit with Zhang Wei..."

   "Yingying, what are you talking about, armed robbery, sent you away in one year?"

   Seeing Tan Yingying forcefully said in a low voice, Xiao Baihe hates that iron is not steel, you are actually afraid of Zhang Wei for this.

   "What is 1 year, it is obviously 15 months, and the sentence is 3 years, of which the execution is suspended for two years..." Zhang Wei quickly interrupted.

   "Go away, I'm talking to Yingying, it's none of your business!"

  Xiao Baihe angrily rebuked Zhang Wei, telling the latter to shut up.

After weighing it again and again, Xiao Baihe winked at Tan Yingying, and then showed a "kind" smile to Zhang Wei.

   But this smile made Zhang Wei's heart "squeak".

   This is not a good-looking expression, at least not something a compromised person can show.

  Xiao Baihe took a deep breath, and then said: "Although doing this may make me reprimanded by the leader, I still have to do it..."

   "Are you going to compromise?" Zhang Wei's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it.

  Xiao Lihe would actually make a deal with him, he felt that the sun was coming out from the west.

   "500 yuan!"

"What?"

   "Can't you hear me clearly, I bet 500 fast, you~will~lose~"

   "You, are you going to bet with me?"

  Zhang Wei finally understood that Xiao Baihe would be reprimanded by the leaders for what he said. It turned out not to be a plea bargain with himself, but this matter.

   "Why, your lawyer Zhang is also afraid sometimes?"

  Xiao Baihe raised his eyebrows and looked over with a defiant expression.

   "Are you very confident?" Zhang Wei naturally asked the other side without any cowardice.

  Xiao Baihe smiled, his tone slowed down: "Your case should be given to your law firm by the Aid Association, right?"

"Yes!"

   "So you can earn a few hundred dollars per case at most. Now I'll give you a chance to earn an extra 500. Do you want it?"

   Zhang Wei felt that he was being pinched for the first time, and his hands subconsciously clenched fists.

   But soon, he let go again.

   "Okay, I bet with you!"

   Zhang Wei smiled and raised a finger: "But I also have a request!"

   "You said?" Xiao Baihe's eyes flashed, slightly curious.

"The chief lawyer in this case is my little apprentice, and the chief prosecutor is also your little follower, so there are two people on your side. If each person is 500, the bet will be doubled. If you win, I lose 1000, and I win. You also lose 1000 to me!"

   Zhang Wei said, grabbing Lin Yumeng, who was bowing his head, and let her show her face in front of Xiao Baihe.

   "You said so, then I will also add a condition. Since neither you nor I are the main persons in charge of the case, then let Tan Yingying and your little apprentice appear in court, and we will not interfere!"

   "Very good, I just want to train my apprentice, your request is fine!"

   "That's it!"

   "It's settled, the stake is 500 per person, and then let them decide the outcome in court!"

   Zhang Wei left, pulling Lin Yumeng away from the headquarters of the local inspection department.

   He wanted to go back and explain to Ying Qingli that the deal was not reached this time, and the prosecutor at the district prosecutor's headquarters insisted on going to court.

  In the pantry.

   "Sister Lily, are you really going to have a lawsuit with Zhang Wei again? I'm so scared..."

  Tan Yingying was still a little scared, especially when she saw Zhang Wei's smiling face, she panicked.

   "Yingying, what are you afraid of? I won't interfere with him. Your opponent is his apprentice. That little girl looks like a newcomer. And I'm here this time, you're not fighting alone!"

  Xiao Baihe immediately encouraged the other party, saying that everything has me.

   "But don't you say you won't interfere?"

   "Yeah, don't intervene, our prosecutors are all mouths, I say you do it, isn't that enough?"

   "Ah, this..."

  Tan Yingying looked at Xiao Baihe blankly, but the latter showed a smile of successful conspiracy.

the other side.

   outside the detention center.

   Zhang Wei explained the situation to Ying Qingli. Although the latter was a little disappointed, he also understood his own situation and didn't say much.

   Anyway, in the end, they all have to decide the outcome in court.

   "Master, do I really want to go to court, but if I'm alone, I'm so scared..."

  Lin Yumeng stood beside Zhang Wei, her expression a little scared and a little frightened.

   "Don't be afraid, everything belongs to me!"

  Zhang Wei quickly comforted him and signaled the other party to calm down.

   "Yes, don't you say you won't intervene?"

   "Yeah, don't intervene, but our lawyers are all mouths. I told you to do it. This doesn't break the bets and rules, right?"

   "Yeah, this..."

  Lin Yumeng stared blankly at Zhang Wei, and saw that the latter showed a confident expression.

  …

   Jincheng Law Firm, Criminal Division.

   When Zhang Wei and Lin Yumeng returned to the law firm, it was almost time for get off work.

  The employees of Jincheng Building walked out of the elevator one after another. They are not lawyers, and many grass-roots employees do not work overtime.

   "Xiaomeng, do you have to work overtime on weekends?"

   Zhang Wei asked quickly.

"work overtime?"

  Lin Yumeng tilted her head, somewhat not understanding these two words.

   "A good lawyer will think about the case even on weekdays, and even at home, the most important thing in his mind is the client's business. So I ask you, since you have a case, do you need to work overtime on weekends?"

"This……"

   Seeing what Master said so righteously, Lin Yumeng also thought about it carefully, what would she do if she didn't work overtime on weekends?

   Chat with my mother at home, listen to her bragging about the gossip in the rich wife circle, or how lucky you are playing mahjong today, and find a big restaurant outside for dinner in the evening, and the day goes by like this.

   "That, Master, I decided to work overtime on weekends. It's not because I'm bored at home, but because I want to be an excellent lawyer, and I want to do my best for my client!"

  Lin Yumeng nodded "firmly", and Zhang Wei was also very pleased.

   This little apprentice is a buildable material!

   "That's fine, but I have to ask Lao Tie, does the company give overtime subsidies on weekends?"

  The two got on the elevator, and after returning to the office of the criminal unit, they immediately asked Lao Tie about working overtime.

   "What, you have to work overtime on weekends?"

  Tie Ruyun exclaimed, attracting the attention of Li Yueqin, Jin Mingming and Tie Cuilan who were about to get off work.

   The three of them were packing their things when they suddenly heard the two sensitive words "work overtime" with different expressions.

  Jin Mingming frowned, and then immediately called out to Tie Ruyun: "Team Leader, then I'll go back first, see you on Monday!"

   He obviously resisted working overtime, especially working overtime for the criminal team who knew they wouldn't stay for long. It would be even more impossible to work overtime!

   If you have this spare time, you can invite a few colleagues from other groups in the Litigation Department on weekends to communicate with each other and prepare for your own team transfer in the future.

  Li Yueqin showed hesitation, because the case at hand was quite urgent, and she was considering whether to work overtime.

  Tie Cuilan glanced at Zhang Wei unexpectedly, because very few newcomers during the internship period choose to work overtime.

   Asking them to work overtime is like killing them!

   "To be honest, I don't encourage overtime work in principle, especially since the two of you are still newcomers..."

"but?"

   Seeing that Tie Ruyun hesitated to speak, Zhang Wei raised his eyebrows.

   "How do you know I can't say anything?"

Tie Ruyun was stunned for a moment, seeing that both of them were looking at him, and then he continued: "But our big boss said that when you stand at the highest point in the future, look back and see yourself working overtime when you were young. You will feel that staying up late and working at that time is a blessing!"

   "Mom, it sounds like an old capitalist!"

  Zhang Wei complained in his heart, but he still said perfunctorily: "The boss is right, working overtime is a blessing!"

   "So, the wealth and status of the big boss are all achieved by their own struggle?"

   "That's not true. Jincheng Group was created by the father of the big boss. Our big boss is the second generation, and Jincheng Law Firm was inherited from his father!"

  艹, waste of my feelings!

   Zhang Wei was completely speechless.

   Feelings, you Lin Xiangtian didn't start from scratch, but a rich second-generation, then your words are useless, and they are not convincing at all!

   "Since you guys decided to work overtime, I'll come over tomorrow too!"

  Tie Ruyun glanced at Zhang Wei and Lin Yumeng, but understood their desire to work overtime.

   "Old iron, don't worry about it, we two can handle it!"

   "This is not acceptable. How can the employees work overtime on weekends, but the leaders are resting at home!"

   Seeing that Tie Ruyun insisted, Zhang Wei had no choice.

   After making an appointment to see the law firm tomorrow, they all got off work.

  …

   Saturday morning.

  In the forest house.

  Zhang Wei is busy in the bed room, packing today's lunch into the food box.

   In front of him, Zhao Xiaoxiao got up early uncharacteristically and drank the porridge he cooked one by one.

   "The leader is here today, so take one more person!"

   Zhang Wei said, took an extra food box, and planned to bring a lunch for Lao Tie.

   "Speaking of the second girl, why did you get up so early today?"

   "This weekend, I invited my sister to go shopping."

   "Sister, how many appointments have you made, is Hanhan here?"

  Zhang Wei looked at Zhao Xiaoxiao. As for her sister, she was naturally the ones who ate together a few years ago.

  The ghost knows how these women feel so good after eating, and now they call each other sisters.

   As for who Zhang Wei is talking about Hanhan, Zhao Xiaoxiao naturally knows.

   "Your eldest daughter is not here, the one who asked me out was the blonde with the biggest breasts!"

   "Oh, it's Jessica~"

   Zhang Wei was a little curious about Jessica asking Zhao Xiaoxiao to go out.

   "By the way, what is Hanhan doing recently?"

   "You won't send messages yourself?"

   "Isn't she busy with cases recently? Besides, she has joined the serious crime team now. We are both very busy."

   "You didn't say it all, she joined the serious crime team, so naturally she is also busy with cases~"

   Zhao Xiaoxiao raised her head, thought about it, and said, "I remember your eldest daughter said that recently, all seven groups of them are investigating a gang involved in underworld!"

   "That seems to be busy!"

   Zhang Wei nodded. He also understood the work of the serious crime team.

   "Okay, you can go shopping with Jessica today, and say hello to her for me by the way!"

   "Hehe, don't think I don't know you're thinking about that big woman!"

   Ignoring Zhao Xiaoxiao's cold eyes, Zhang Wei packed up and set off directly.

  The advantage of weekends is that there is no morning peak.

   Sitting on the subway, which is not too congested, Zhang Wei came to Jincheng Building very early.

   Take the elevator to the 26th floor and come to the office of the Litigation Department.

   Walking through the empty office area, he entered the office of the Criminal Division, and started to work.

   Pulled a 2-meter-wide blank writing board outside, and he began to record the case information.

   Ying Qingli was arrested at 10:14 pm on Monday.

  According to his account, he was walking on the road, humming a song and preparing to eat supper, but he was caught by the field service of the Wushu Association, and he was stunned.

   And the martial arts association has a basis for arresting him.

Because there was an armed robbery in an underground parking lot near the place where Ying Qingli was arrested, the suspect robbed the victim's wallet and fled. Should be green.

   Then comes the most crucial point. The victim testified that Ying Qingli was the one who robbed him, and the victim was the only witness in this case.

  According to the testimony of the witnesses who were also the parties, the Wushu Association naturally wanted to arrest Ying Qingli.

   After entering the detention center, Ying Qingli proposed to find a lawyer and submitted the application. In the end, the legal aid agency handed the case to Jincheng.

   "The ins and outs of the matter are very clear. Someone was robbed, and that person identified Ying Qingli. In theory, he is a prisoner, but..."

   Zhang Wei thought of this, paused, and recalled what Xiao Baihe said in his mind.

   "The location of the robbery was an underground parking lot, but there was plenty of light..."

   He immediately walked to Lin Yumeng's work station, took out the case files and publicized photos from the drawer, and posted them one by one on the writing board.

"There are lights in the underground parking lot, and the lights are sufficient. It stands to reason that the witnesses will not be wrong. But he should have been frightened at the time. The human body is a very magical thing. If you are too nervous and afraid, you will have hallucinations. "

   "The victim of this case was robbed by an armed force. When he saw a vicious man preparing to stab him with a knife, he would definitely be nervous. He might be scared to pee his pants. Could he be wrong?"

   Zhang Wei was naturally skeptical about the victim's confession.

  Unfortunately, as a defense lawyer, he is strictly prohibited from contacting other people involved in the case other than his client outside the courtroom. To understand the situation of the case, the only opportunity is to question the other party in court.

   "It seems that we have to wait for the court session to know the details..."

   Zhang Wei was helpless and continued to analyze the case.

   Just as he was analyzing the case, someone else arrived.

  Tie Ruyun also came very early, but when he saw Zhang Wei was busy on the writing board, he didn't make a sound to disturb him.

   But he looked at Zhang Wei's concentrated appearance, and he was also a little emotional.

  This kid was born to be a criminal defense lawyer, not only has a high level of court hearing, but also has an unusual dedication to the case.

   This case was clearly not his own responsibility, but he still tried his best.

   If those people he brought before heard that it was a public welfare case, and they were not responsible for it, they would be too lazy to deal with it.

   After a while, Lin Yumeng also came.

   She trotted all the way to the criminal unit and saw that Tie Ruyun and Zhang Wei were both there.

   "Yeah, team leader, master, you all..."

   "Shhh!"

  Tie Ruyun hurriedly made a mute gesture, and his eyes signaled Lin Yumeng not to disturb him.

   Didn't you see Zhang Wei thinking? You have to look at the occasion if you want to speak!

  Lin Yumeng understood, nodded, and immediately stood beside Tie Ruyun, watching Zhang Wei with him.

   After dozens of minutes, Zhang Wei finally stopped analyzing.

   "I still have to go to the scene to see~"

   He muttered, and when he turned around, he found that Lin Yumeng and Tie Ruyun had both arrived.

   "Yo, Lao Tie and Xiaomeng are here!"

   "It's not because you're thinking about the case, we didn't dare to disturb you!"

   "There is nothing to disturb, this kind of case is like doing a decryption game, sometimes the clues get stuck, and suddenly you can think of the key to solving the case!"

   Zhang Wei laughed and shared a little experience.

   "That's true, but your kid just graduated from law school. How can you speak like an old lawyer?"

   "It may be that I brought an apprentice, so the style of speech has naturally changed!"

   "Mmmm, Master is right!"

   Zhang Wei hurriedly moved out of Lin Yumeng to explain, the latter naturally stood up and supported his "master".

   "Well, what are you going to do today, what are your plans?"

   Zhang Wei thought for a while, then glanced at Lin Yumeng again.

   "This morning, Xiaomeng and I were in charge of rehearsing the court trial questioning. I have a lot of questions to answer. These questions need to be asked by Xiaomeng to witnesses during the trial."

   He glanced at Tie Ruyun again: "It just so happens that you are here, Old Tie, so come and be this witness!"

"I?"

   "That's right, but old iron, will you substitute into the client's mind? We need an eyewitness who has just been robbed and is in shock and panic."

   "This, it's a little difficult..."

   Hearing Zhang Wei's request, Tie Ruyun's face was embarrassed.

   He is a lawyer, not a professional actor, and you still ask for so much, how will he act?

   "Well, I'll guide you..."

   Zhang Wei said, hooked at the two of them, and let the younger apprentice and Lao Tie come over.

   Next, Zhang Wei is responsible for analysis and guidance, while Tie Ruyun needs to substitute into the heart of the witness.

Lin Yumeng next to    took out her notebook and began to record all the questions Zhang Wei asked to ask.

   After all, on the day of the trial, it was not Zhang Wei who appeared in court, but her.
