At the beginning, I want to quit the arena

Chapter 144 Not decent
Many Xiangjiang people feel a little strange when they open today's newspapers, because almost the most conspicuous front pages of most Chinese newspapers are the same two news, and the headlines that are bolded and emphasized are quite eye-catching:

Article [-]: Xiangjiang Express was beaten and burned by members of the underworld in the middle of the night!The reporter was seriously injured and admitted to the hospital!The murderer said arrogantly: I work for Uncle Kun.

Article 100: Black tycoon Li Shaokun's phone recording exposed: Brother-in-law, you and Mr. Li Shuming have accepted [-] million, please save me, don't let the police continue to investigate!

The morning news of the TV station also paid attention to the incident of "Xiangjiang Express" newspaper being smashed by members of the underworld, and played a recording of Li Shaokun's phone call that was said to be from an anonymous colleague in the newspaper industry. It belongs to Li Shaokun himself, not someone else's counterfeit:

"Yan Sen, Li Shuming charged me more than 100 million yuan, let them think of a way for me, it's best not to alert the police."

Sociology experts in charge of news commentary spoke with eloquence:

"When I was kidnapped, I didn't forget to emphasize not to alert the police. Instead, I asked the congressman to find a way, what to do? Of course, it can't be that our congressman Li puts on a bulletproof vest and takes a gun to save him. What is the congressman best at? Pressure Mr. Li is the barrister representing Li Shaokun in the infringement case involving Tianlong Company this time. I think Li Shaokun is the same as I guessed in the previous program. He was not kidnapped, but directed and acted by himself. I hope the councilor will put pressure and delay Investigate, to facilitate his transfer of property..."

"The next piece of news, yesterday afternoon, Mr. Zhang Zhenlang, the chairman of the Mong Kok District Council, has formally filed a lawsuit with several vice presidents of the Xiangjiang Military Ticket Claims Association, Leoch, to sue the honorary vice president of the Xiangjiang Military Ticket Claims Association and a well-known barrister. , Member of the Legislative Council Li Shuming and honorary chairman Yan Sen maliciously slandered and deceived the congregation, the following is the interview clip of the reporter when Zhang Zhenlang took people to the court to submit materials yesterday."

"The Xiangjiang Military Ticket Claims Association is to unite the citizens who were persecuted and injured because of the war, to speak out for them, and to claim compensation for the suffering they suffered. If Councilor Li Shuming didn't take the initiative to speak up, how dare we accept those poor people? The money of the poor?"

"The former President Li Guoqiang, why did he quit, and why did I take over? It is because Chairman Li Guoqiang has been harassed by Mr. Li Shuming, saying that as long as each member raises a certain amount of money, he can sue on his behalf. Li Guoqiang can't bear to exploit the original The members of the association are already poor, but they don’t want to give up such a good opportunity. After all, Mr. Li Shuming is a well-known Chinese barrister. If he is willing to help, there will be a lot of chances of success.”

"I happened to know the news about President Li Guoqiang, and I told President Li that I would be responsible for the infamy. Then President Li Guoqiang handed over the position of president to me, worried that I would be a vegetarian, and hurriedly established a new association. Supervisor, these words, these things, several vice presidents can testify. After I took over, Mr. Li Shuming originally planned to report 400 million Hong Kong dollars. Because I and him are seniors and juniors in the law school, we talked about 300 million Hong Kong dollars. Several vice presidents discussed with me and said that we should raise 300 million yuan and not ask members to pay for it. It was President Li Guoqiang who said that we should let members know about it.”

"Therefore, we only charged 300 members a fee of [-] Hong Kong dollars each, indicating that some members of the association were also involved in this matter. Now there are [-] million Hong Kong dollars in the association account, only [-] Hong Kong dollars are from members of the association. The rest came from the donations of several vice presidents and directors, and all receipts are completely open for inquiry. Of course, the donors did not include the honorary vice president Mr. Li Shuming and the honorary chairman Mr. Yan Sen, so the two of them today Outside the Governor’s Mansion in the morning, saying that we, the president and vice-president, are trying to gain fame and defraud members of their money. Governor of Hong Kong, the court will return our innocence, don't let the good people feel cold..."

"It is understood that the court has accepted the complaint."

Li Shuming sat in the office with a pale face, while Yan Sen was beside him, only silent.

"To be decent is to take the initiative to resign now, and to be embarrassing is to wait for the Legislative Council to leave." After a long time, Yan Sen said.

There is no chance of a comeback, and even Yan Sen can already think of tomorrow's news, that is, Li Shaokun's subordinates were arrested, saying that Li Shaokun was worried that his deal with Li Shuming Yan Sen would be leaked, and ordered him to solve the recording.

It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the first time the dirty water is splashed, it will only continue to flow in the future, and even if the signed contract is fake, it will be true.

Because as long as the signature is true.

"Mr. Li, many people came outside and lined up spontaneously, saying that you promised to pay the money yesterday..." An assistant came in from the outside and whispered.

"Oh, oh... I'm going to send it." Li Shuming came back to his senses, and wanted to get up, even if he lost, he had to be decent, and he had to finish what he promised.

But just as he got up straight, a few policemen had already walked in and pointed their badges at him: "Mr. Li Shuming, now I suspect that you and Mr. Yan Sen are related to the kidnapping of Mr. Li Shaokun..."

"There are 300 million Hong Kong dollars in the room." Yan Sen closed his eyes in despair: "It is used to distribute to victims..."

"We suspect that this money may be related to Li Shaokun's transfer of illegal income. The police are temporarily keeping it. If the investigation is clear, it will be returned in full."

"I didn't have any dignity left. I thought that in the end, the mad dog would be more decent. I guessed wrong." Yan Sen wanted to touch the ginseng in his pocket, but found that it was empty, he lowered his hand in vain , Frustrated to speak.

……

Yesterday someone came to petition outside the Governor's Mansion, and it is said that some MPs promised to send money. Today, nearly 2000 people gathered outside the Governor's Mansion.Although some of them came to find out if any MPs would send money, most of them came to petition to clean up Zhang Zhenlang and others, saying that the chairman Zhang Zhenlang, vice chairman Deng Shitong and others did not lie, and they really did not raise money in the name of hiring a lawyer They can testify, and hope that the Governor of Hong Kong can speak out and help them claim compensation from Japan.

But today, officials from the Social Welfare Department of the Hong Kong government appeared even faster, standing in front of more than [-] people in suits, borrowing the reporter's microphone and speaking loudly to the crowd gathered in front of them:

"Everyone, although I regret that because the United Kingdom and Japan have already signed the "San Francisco Contract", I cannot officially negotiate with Japan on behalf of you, but..."

He stopped talking suddenly, and then showed a gratified smile. Everyone followed his gaze. In the distance, a stretched limousine from the Hong Kong government was slowly approaching, and finally stopped not far away.

Chairman of the Bar Association, Cardinal Lin, QC, President of the Hong Kong Court of First Instance, Justice Robbies, Vice-President of the Hong Kong Court of First Instance, Justice Ma Bili, QC, Chairman of the Police Council Ma Siqi, QC Five people from Ou Haokun got off the limousine one by one.

"But... Xiangjiang has never lacked justice and kindness. Many barristers have noticed through yesterday's petition that there are still such a group of war victims in Xiangjiang. Sir Hao Kun took the initiative to call the Government of Hong Kong, expressing that they are willing to provide legal consultation and defense services for all war victims, and also thank Mr. Sheng Jiale of Dakong Company, because his mother is an honorary member of the Xiangjiang Military Ticket Claims Association Ms. Changzhuang Chunping, inspired by her mother, Mr. Sheng Jiale is willing to bear all the expenses incurred in this lawsuit against the Dongying government."

The sound of the shutter kept ringing, and Linkadi walked slowly in front of the crowd, bowing slightly:

"It's a pity that I only know about the suffering you have encountered now. Maybe the suffering will not completely dissipate today, but I can guarantee that at least today, more lawyers like me will help you. Of course, I am more happy to watch Four fellow barristers around me made the same decision as me. Two of them are even the chief justices serving in the Hong Kong government. They chose to take a vacation to participate in this voluntary activity. Lawyers, speak out for the weak and protect the dignity of the weak , has nothing to do with money! If a barrister cares about money, he has already tarnished the legal balance in his heart, and he will be cast aside and alienated."

Linkadi paused for a moment, then continued:
"About this voluntary activity, because I have an infringement case to appear in court tomorrow, and the copyright protection regulations have just been established, the Bar Association needs to make some arrangements, and I want to participate in the investigation of Mr. Li Shuming's defamation allegations. This is my duty. Hong Kong barristers will not be corrupted by money. Most importantly, I believe they are better than me, so I will provide any legal support for you, the four of them, to stay in Hong Kong. The four of them are the real ones. Heroes of justice, everyone, justice will come."

The four barristers waited for Lin Cardi to finish his speech, and walked in front of the crowd one by one. Everyone was either impassioned or compassionate, explaining the reasons for their decision to stand up and defend everyone without compensation.

Many petitioners cried bitterly because of the sincere speeches of these barristers. For the first time in decades, they saw that such big men were willing to stand up and seek justice for the weak, telling them that even if they failed, they would never back down.

The four barristers walked towards the crowd, comforted them who were emotionally agitated, and advised them not to be sad, not to gather in the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion, and to go to their law firm office at any time, and there will be someone to receive them. If they are worried that they will lose attention if they leave here, they will also You can receive all kinds of text materials here...

Noticing that hundreds of people came excitedly in the distance, the Welfare Department officials frowned slightly after getting to know the police officers maintaining order.

Linkadi, who was beside him, faced the crowd with a smile and said softly, "What happened?"

"Mr. Li Shuming promised some people that he would hand out banknotes, but he broke his promise. Those angry citizens rushed into the office and found that there was no one there. Then they came here and wanted to accuse Mr. Li Shuming of cheating them." The official of the Welfare Department said: "Even Poor people are cheating, it's really inferior."

Lin Cardi said softly: "The Bar Association will quickly hold a meeting to make a decision on the recent behavior of Barrister Li Shuming."

"The Legislative Council will also make a decision. Frankly speaking, the Governor of Hong Kong is very dissatisfied with him now, and I have received news that the Chinese in the Mainland seem to be very dissatisfied. He received dirty money from gang members, and the dirty money came from the Mainland. What kind of person would be so greedy and disgusting about the income from running an illegal business, thanks to the fact that he was a gentleman before..."

Li Fuqiang looked at the members who were cheering for being valued from a distance, but turned his head to look into the distance. Only he knew that Sheng Jiale paid for the four barristers to hire them.

But Li Fuqiang felt that he should not thank him, because he had already paid the price for these suffering people.

Liang Chen Zhiyi, Zhang Zhenlang and others cooperated with the barristers to evacuate the crowd who were persuading them to leave the petition. While the crowd was gradually receding, Zhang Zhenlang exhaled and asked Liang Chen Zhiyi next to him:
"Where is your blue-faced confidant? In such a big scene, you can resist the temptation and not come out to show off?"

"I heard from his lawyer that Lawyer Lu Zhibang went to Singapore to pick up a lady to come to Hong Kong. He is preparing to welcome women. Maybe in his opinion, women are more important than limelight." Liang Chen Zhiyi unscrewed a bottle of water and sipped He said with a smile.

"Scheming, ruthless, unstoppable, not stealing the limelight, likes women, 24 years old, has both insane skills and seemingly unbearable shortcomings, this is a truly smart person, and sooner or later he will be appreciated by the big shots. Zhang Zhenlang exhaled: "When I was his age, I could only do a little."

Liang Chen Zhiyi asked, "Aren't you trying to steal the limelight?"

Zhang Zhenlang laughed: "No, it's because he likes women."
