“A retrial?”
Ding Deshui, startled, said, “What do you an?
What’s this about a retrial, hasn’t that Huang already been jailed?”
In Ding Deshui’s view, since the man had already been imprisoned, there shouldn’t be anything else to worry about.
It seed impossible that there could be any issues.
It wasn’t that he was brainless, it was just that the reality was such that even if Old Tang himself had handled the case that got soone incarcerated, he wouldn’t expect a retrial to happen after an appeal.
Because the probability of that happening was really low, in fact, many retrial cases only resulted after years of appeals from the parties involved.
...
Why would results only co after so many years?
A major reason was that the original judges of those cases had retired…
cough cough.
Ding Deshui’s brother-in-law said upon hearing this, “Brother-in-law, I already told you, that Huang has already finished his prison sentence, went to Jingzhou to file a complaint, and now Lincheng Court is reopening the case for retrial!”
“No, how can they just decide on a retrial out of the blue, what’s going on, does that Huang have such capabilities?
Whose doors has he been knocking on?” Ding Deshui finally ca around but still couldn’t quite believe it.
In the countryside of Lincheng, relationships and personal favors were highly valued, so in Ding Deshui’s world, getting a case reopened definitely ant that soone had pulled so influential strings; otherwise, were they actually going to talk about the law?
The brother-in-law said beside him, “I don’t know about that, but the court has already posted the notice of the hearing, so the retrial is definitely happening.”
“Brother-in-law, what do we do now?”
Ding Deshui looked uneasy, but quickly replied, “What to do?
Tough luck, what can we do?
That Huang hacked our Third Brother into such a state, is it wrong for him to be in prison?”
“Third Brother spent over a month in the hospital, and his arm still isn’t right, the court has to be reasonable, I’ll investigate the situation first.”
Even though he was a bit astounded about the case being retried, Ding Deshui, to be honest, didn’t care much, as he believed Huang Licheng deserved to be in jail.
After all, at that ti, the scene was such that his brother was hacked to the point of being covered in blood – you can’t just not serve ti for that.
After so thought, Ding Deshui took out his phone, ready to contact a relative to inquire about the situation and get to the bottom of this.
“Hey, Lin, Lincheng Court is now about to retry Huang Licheng’s case, what’s going on?”
“The High Court sent it back for a retrial?
Why would the High Court send it back for no reason, killing is retribution, debts must be paid, isn’t it the natural order of things?
What’s there to retry?”
Lin’s voice ca from the phone, “You’ve heard too, huh?
It’s all anybody can talk about in the Lincheng Court system.
I’m not clear on the details myself, but I’ve heard many people here are also wondering why this case is being sent back for a retrial.”
“That Huang Licheng is from your village, how could you not know if there’s a connection?”
“I do know one thing, the reason this case is being retried has a lot to do with the lawyer Huang Licheng hired.
Have you ever heard the na Tang Fangjing?”
Ding Deshui said upon hearing this, “Never heard of it.
Can a lawyer really influence sothing like this?”
“Old Ding, listen to .
This Tang Fangjing is a very famous lawyer, the kind that’s well-known nationwide, and if soone like him gets involved, he really can make a difference!”
Over the phone, Old Lin roughly outlined Tang Fangjing’s background, which left Ding Deshui stunned.
“Hold on, Old Lin, are you saying that this lawyer called Tang Fangjing is a nationally famous ‘Internet celebrity’ lawyer, extrely wealthy, often pays for cases out of his own pocket, and even likes to take on particularly troubleso cases, and that he even took the initiative this ti?” Ding Deshui couldn’t help but say.
Truthfully, Ding Deshui had never co across such a person, soone who so selflessly helped others without seeking money or fa…
if that’s not mad, what is!
On the other end of the phone, Brother Lin said, “You might well say that he’s mad.
Let just warm you, do not even think about playing dirty tricks on this guy!”
As a relative, Brother Lin knew Ding Deshui too well; when he lost his temper, he tended to act recklessly, quick to throw punches without considering the consequences.
Hearing this, Ding Deshui quickly laughed, “Brother Lin, we’re in a rule-of-law society now, how could I possibly get involved in anything else?”
“Don’t play around with , let tell you, the guy’s got terminal liver cancer and so ntal issues too, and he’s gotten into trouble for ddling in other people’s business before…”
Then Brother Lin recounted Old Tang’s heroic deeds over the phone, with a particular emphasis on the knife attack at the entrance of the law firm and the close shave with the dump truck.
“Now you understand what kind of person he is.
He’s a real hard case, don’t think you can scare him off; getting hit by a dump truck like that, his first move after getting out was to continue what he was doing, and now he’s nationally known!
“If anything were to happen in Lincheng, do you know how serious the consequences would be?”
“That’s all I have to say.
No matter how the case ends, don’t get involved.
Your involvent won’t change anything.
Alright, that’s it, I’m hanging up.”
After the call ended, Ding Deshui looked at his phone, bewildered – there really are such people out there?
Unable to outplay them legally or out-fight them, and with the guy having terminal cancer, who knows how long he has left?
It seems nothing is worth the trouble.
After thinking it over and finding no solution available, since that lawyer nad Tang was like a hedgehog, he decided to let it be for now.
The orchard had already been contracted out to his brother-in-law, and it was his business to clear it when the contract expired – what could be done if it wasn’t cleared?
The land belonged to the village, not to Huang Licheng.
