Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In a private law firm in G City, Chen Maochang was contentedly accepting the flattery of a group of colleagues.

    He just finished a case this morning. His client is a local real estate developer who is very rich but also very powerful.

    The developer recently bid for a project that required land in a certain area on the outskirts of the city, and the planned location around the land happened to include the houses of twenty or thirty nearby households.

    Logically speaking, this is not a big deal. As long as the two parties have negotiated, demolition and demolition should be done, compensation should be paid, and the project can start with the consent of the other party.

    But the key point is that the developer was unwilling to spend more money on this aspect, so he deliberately kept the quotation extremely low.

    "Of course these 20 or 30 households are not happy about this, and they are not fools. Who would put money into the demolition without getting any benefits?

    The two sides reached a stalemate without reaching an agreement. It happened that the son of the developer boss found out about this. This young master was an ignorant little gangster. He even gathered a group of bad friends to find trouble for these residents.  Force them to move as soon as possible.

    During the dispute, the boss¡¯s son beat to death an old man from one of the families and injured many others.

    As an attorney, Chen Maochang defended the developer's son. In order to win the lawsuit and get a generous reward, he offered his boss the "mental illness" gold medal to avoid death.

    The result can be imagined. The boss lost a sum of money, but his son did not bear criminal responsibility, did not go to jail, and did not pay for his life.

    From a certain perspective, he has won this lawsuit to a great extent.

    "boom¡­¡­"

    Chen Maochang was walking forward surrounded by people when a figure suddenly rushed over aggressively and hit him hard on the shoulder.

    Chen Maochang was hit so hard that he almost fell down.

    Holding his shoulder that was hurt by the impact, he stared in the direction where the figure left with a livid face.

    Seeing this, everyone who was originally surrounding Chen Maochang stopped complimenting him. It took a while before someone timidly said, "Brother Chen, are you okay? A Ming didn't mean it."

    As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Maochang's face darkened. Several other colleagues who wanted to please Chen Maochang saw his expression and immediately added jealousy: "I think he did it on purpose. His performance is not good, so he can't stand Brother Chen."  He is superior and has more strength than him.¡±

    "Yes, yes, Brother Chen won such a big order at the opening today. It's normal for him to be unbalanced. However, what if he is unbalanced? Brother Chen is just better than him, and makes better and more money than him.  A mediocre person who is not envied by others is a mediocre person, Brother Chen, we are not the same as this kind of mediocre person."

    The words of a few people made Chen Maochang's face look much better, but there were also some people who were closer to the colleague just now and couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard their words.

    Chen Maochang felt happy, but he also knew that the colleague bumped into him not because of any so-called jealousy, but just couldn't bear to see him exonerating the developer's son.

    Chen Maochang has no psychological burden at all about this. As a defense lawyer for the defendant, his duty is to obtain the best results for his employer to the greatest extent possible.

    ¡°Besides, what if they can¡¯t stand it?  This does not affect his reputation at all, let alone make money.

    Compared with those ethereal moral principles, only these things are the most real.

    Thinking like this, Chen Maochang felt much better. Just as he was about to pack his things and go home from get off work early, he received a call from the old man next door.

    "Xiao Chen, why did you answer the phone? Your dad is in the hospital."

    "What?" Chen Maochang was startled, and his expression changed, "What's going on? Why did my dad end up in the hospital?"

    "It's a long story, go to the hospital quickly."

    Chen Maochang got the address and rushed out of the office regardless, shocking many people inside.

    Chen Maochang rushed to the hospital, but in the end it was still a step too late.

    When he learned that his father had died a few minutes ago after resuscitation failed, Chen Maochang's legs suddenly became weak and he knelt down in front of the operating room door and burst into tears.

    He is a child of a single family. His mother died of illness when he was in elementary school. It was his father who single-handedly raised him up.

    He finally grew up and had a successful career, but his father passed away before he could enjoy much. This was a huge blow to him.

    After crying for a while, Chen Maochang calmed down a little. He held on to the kind neighbors who sent his father to the hospital and said anxiously and angrily: "What on earth is going on? My dad had a good meal with me this morning."  Breakfast, how come it has only been so long"

    Because motherBecause of his early death, Chen Maochang attaches great importance to his father's health and arranges for him to have a full-body examination every year.

    In his opinion, his father is in very good health and there is absolutely no chance of him being hospitalized in an emergency. Something else must have happened.

    "Old Uncle Chen, hehe was killed."

    Chen Maochang was confused, and then yelled: "Who? Who harmed him? I want him to go to jail and make him pay with his life."

    The speaker looked embarrassed and somewhat sympathized with Chen Maochang: "It's the son of the Gao family in Building 9."

    Chen Maochang didn¡¯t realize who he was talking about at first. After thinking about it carefully, he remembered that there was a famous person in Building 9

    "The hostess of that house went out to buy groceries near noon and locked the child in the house. She didn't know why but let him run out. When he rushed out, your father happened to be under the big tree under their building.  Going down to enjoy the cool air, the son of the Gao family holds a stick and a knife in his hand"

    Chen Maochang could no longer listen to what the other party said.

    At that time, there was only one thing in his mind. The son of the Gao family was a lunatic suffering from mental illness. He was not a fake lunatic like the developer's son, but a real lunatic known to everyone.

    After learning the whole story, Chen Maochang's mind almost immediately flashed to the way the old man's son who was beaten to death stood at the door of the court when everything settled this morning, staring at him with sinister pity.

    He said: "You will suffer retribution, you will all suffer retribution, I will wait, I will wait!"

    Chen Maochang suddenly felt dizzy, and somehow he remembered what a little star had said in reply to him online not long ago.

    "How about professional ethics with murderers? You can do it, but I can't do it anyway."

    At that time, he still scoffed at the remark, and later deleting the comment was just because he did not want to be involved in public opinion, and it did not mean that he agreed.

    There is a saying that unless the knife cuts yourself, you will never know how painful it is.

    Chen Maochang feels that his understanding of this sentence has never been as profound as it is now.

    It was only at this moment that he understood that before adhering to his so-called professional ethics, he must first treat himself as a human being, a person with three views and a bottom line.

    Unfortunately, it¡¯s too late.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
