Chapter 589: It's Unfair to Us to Do This!

~16 min read 3,105 words

Feng Jianhua was a bit hesitant; he did not know if posting this video online would attract any attention.

The main thing was that he truly felt too wronged; the matter originally was just cursing a few times in a group chat, so how did it end up being both a criminal detention and a lawsuit now?

And the key point was that no matter what, it was inseparable from a Lawyer; after being criminally detained, one had to hire a Lawyer to meet, and to fight a lawsuit, one still had to hire a Lawyer.

Those Lawyers, one by one, only looked at money; no matter what they did, they wanted money.

Otherwise, he would ask that Lawyer surnamed Zhao to see if it was possible not to pay first, and let her help handle these things first, and then if his wife was fine, or if the lawsuit was won, he would pay.

Otherwise, if this matter could not be accomplished, wouldn't the money be spent in vain?

Thinking this way, Feng Jianhua suddenly felt that this was very fair; anyway, no one would lose out.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly dialed Zhao Yue's phone number.

On the other side, Zhao Yue inside the law firm was composing herself; it was hard enough to finally have a case, but after she spoke, the other party actually hung up the phone directly!

This made Lawyer Zhao feel very disappointed; if you think something is unreasonable, you should at least say so; if the price is not right, we can negotiate, there is no need to hang up the phone directly.

Looking at her own account, if she could not get another case, life would become a problem.

However, just at this moment, her mobile phone suddenly rang; picking it up to look, it was actually that Mr. Feng Jianhua from before!

I knew it, the other party's situation definitely needed a Lawyer!

Zhao Yue answered the phone and said with a face full of smiles: "Hello, Mr. Feng, have you considered it?"

On the phone, Feng Jianhua's voice sounded: "That Lawyer Zhao, I just thought about it; you said to hire you so directly, can you give me a guarantee? Otherwise, if my wife isn't released and the lawsuit is lost, wouldn't I lose a lot?"

Ah? A guarantee? What does this mean?

Zhao Yue said with some confusion: "Mr. Feng, I don't understand what you mean. How do you want me to provide this guarantee? If it is a promise to win the lawsuit, the Lawyer Law has clear regulations; we cannot make such a promise."

Feng Jianhua on the other side immediately said: "Look, that is exactly what I mean; I spend money to hire you, but you can't guarantee that you can solve the problem for me, so if I go through all this trouble and the problem isn't solved, wouldn't the money be spent in vain?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yue wanted to refute; how could the money be spent in vain? No matter the situation, she would have definitely put in the effort.

But at this moment, she definitely could not say that; Zhao Yue could only say: "Mr. Feng, indeed I have no way to provide you with a guarantee, and these are two cases: one is your wife's criminal dispute, and the other is that Defamation of Reputation..."

Zhao Yue did not say it directly, but she felt the meaning was very clear; two cases meant the money required would definitely be two portions.

"Don't say those useless things, Lawyer Zhao. Look, I have a simple idea here. Since you have no way to give me a guarantee, how about this: you help me handle the matter first, and then after the matter is accomplished, I will pay you..." Feng Jianhua said quickly.

Pay after the matter is accomplished?

Zhao Yue blurted out: "Mr. Feng, are you talking about a Risk Agency?"

Feng Jianhua indicated he did not know, so Zhao Yue explained the Risk Agency roughly, then said: "Mr. Feng, I must clarify this to you: first, there is no way to have a Risk Agency for criminal matters; this is a national regulation."

"If I dared to do this, then once discovered by the Lawyers Association, I would face a Suspension of Practice."

"And for that civil case, to be honest, even with normal representation, I couldn't charge too much money; after all, the compensation amount is only six thousand yuan, so this... this is really impossible."

After talking about the Risk Agency, it turned out that neither side was possible, and Feng Jianhua was immediately unhappy.

"Lawyer Zhao, what do you mean? This won't work and that won't work; if you are like this, I have no way to hire you to fight the lawsuit."

What this regulation or that regulation; Feng Jianhua did not care about these; in his view, it was the other party deliberately refusing to agree.

Just thinking about collecting money!

"You Lawyers, one by one, only know how to collect money. Now my wife has been caught, and at this time, you insist on money, and paying later isn't allowed? You have all become obsessed with money, haven't you!"

Feng Jianhua shouted on the phone.

Zhao Yue was silent, or rather, she also did not expect that the client whose case she was preparing to take would actually be like this.

Isn't it only natural and right for a Lawyer to collect money for fighting a lawsuit?

Otherwise, why put in so much effort to go to school and take exams? What is it for, if not to make a living?

Now, someone actually thinks that her collecting money for fighting a lawsuit is being obsessed with money...

After thinking about it, Zhao Yue said: "Then Mr. Feng, in that case, you should find someone else. You can ask others if they are willing; in any case, it definitely won't work with me."

"Forget it, forget it! It's as if I couldn't manage without you as a Lawyer!"

Bang! Feng Jianhua hung up the phone directly. What nonsense; he didn't believe it; Jingzhou is so big, he couldn't find a Lawyer who could fight a lawsuit.

He felt his own idea was very fair and reasonable; pay after the lawsuit is fought, pay if you win, and don't pay if you lose; how fair that is.

Why should one have to pay if the lawsuit is lost!

Continue to find other Lawyers to see if it works.

Thus, under such circumstances, another day passed.

Feng Jianhua hung up the phone once again, his face full of anger.

One after another, they are all obsessed with money; some Lawyers, upon hearing his words, simply said they wouldn't take the case and told him to find someone else.

And the Lawyers who reluctantly said they would take it, once they heard him say he would pay after it was done, immediately refused.

They wouldn't listen to a word more of what he said.

What is the meaning of this? Are they colluding to scam people?

How is this supposed to be handled? Everyone says a Lawyer is needed, but a Lawyer cannot be found; isn't this forcing someone to die?

Feng Jianhua only felt that the fire in his heart was growing larger and larger; he felt that everyone was bullying him—those people at the Police Station, that Zhou Yi, and these Lawyers, all were bullying him!

This is the legendary "blaming heaven and others"; it is like those people who harbor resentment toward society because of their own life experiences.

It is true that they themselves encountered various troubles, such as having their wages withheld by their boss, or money borrowed and not returned, or other aspects.

But, the method of revenge they chose was to go to a kindergarten and kill children...

They believe this is revenge on society, and only in this way can they make society pay attention to them, and only then will there be a sense of pleasure in revenge.

Anyway, at that time, after Zhou Yi read those similar news reports, he felt completely numb...

In the words of Lawyer Fang, even if one looks at it from the most simple Natural Law thought, it still emphasizes that "every grievance has its perpetrator, every debt has its debtor"; whoever provoked you, you go and take revenge on them. That is illegal and criminal, no doubt, but at the very least, you can be considered to have taken revenge on the right person.

But what happened? They don't go find the people who bullied them, but instead turn around and swing their knives at the weaker ones...

This makes many Netizens feel there is nothing to say.

Only, Feng Jianhua naturally did not have that kind of courage; although he was currently burning with rage and felt that this society was bullying his whole family, he did not have the courage to directly take action and retaliate.

But he has a video!

The police are standing right there, aren't they? Fine, I'll post it online and let the Netizens see, let them see how these police officers are beating people!

Very quickly, the video filmed earlier was posted online by Feng Jianhua, with the title: Retaliatory Attack for Not Complying with Police Station Mediation!

Although we always joke that, as everyone knows, videos cannot be Photoshopped, so they must be true.

However, videos can be edited; editing is an art, an art that can make the fake look real.

Feng Jianhua took the video filmed earlier, cut out the warning words from Chen Li and the other officer, and cut out the various provocations and physical actions by Deng Jiafeng, leaving only the scene where Chen Li and the other officer were taking action.

Of course, Feng Jianhua himself did not have this skill; he found someone online, and it was edited in minutes.

Afterward, he added text commentary to the video, plus background music, and it quickly looked the part.

Time arrived at night, or rather, late at night.

In Hanxi Province, Zhang Kai had just finished a game, habitually cursed at a few noob teammates, and decided not to play anymore today; the feng shui was off.

Using the screen name "Wugou Feijian," he could be considered one of A Yi's most steadfast viewers, but now, looking at the news, he wanted to curse again.

"How many days has the dog author not updated again? I'm truly impressed day after day. I don't believe it; with his ability to stir up trouble, could it be that nothing is happening?"

Zhang Kai said, rambling while looking at his phone.

Can the news on the internet even be read now? No matter what you look at, it's all inexplicable rainbow-farting; as long as you say one bad thing, you will be besieged from all sides.

Just being bored like this but not wanting to sleep, he decided to scroll through some short videos.

Many people know that the late night and daytime on Douyin short videos seem to be split apart.

Late at night, there are often some good things that go directly to the hot search.

It's just that he didn't expect that after scrolling for only a moment, he would see a video post go straight to the hot search.

"Beaten by police officers at the door because of refusing Police Station mediation?"

Holy crap, is it this exciting? Can these things even be brought online to talk about?

Zhang Kai suddenly became interested and hurriedly clicked in to watch; it was a video, and it had text explanations inside.

"Let me see, it says it's because of some conflict, his wife said a few things about another person in a group chat, maybe it was a bit unpleasant, so the other party called the police."

"Then, because the child at home was holding a wedding at noon and they were busy attending, they had no choice but to agree to mediation, but after the wedding, they felt the compensation was too high and unreasonable, so they didn't fulfill it."

"As a result, the Police Station sent people directly to their door for a Retaliatory Attack..."

Zhang Kai watched the video several times. Just looking at these things, it seems the person who filmed this video is too aggrieved; not complying with mediation, and they actually came to the door to beat someone!

This influence is truly too bad. Let alone public officials, even for ordinary people, such intentional battery has an extremely bad influence.

But what kind of person is Zhang Kai? He has seen too many such Small Essays online.

Women write Small Essays, and men write them too, or rather, when posting these Small Essays online, they will subconsciously choose to say things that are favorable to themselves.

And unfavorable things are either handled with selective omission or skipped entirely.

Zhang Kai identified this video as fake at a glance, because the two police officers in this video did not beat anyone; although their movements were large, it could be seen that they were intending to put Silver Bracelets on the other party.

It's just that this guy who posted the video is quite bold...

Zhang Kai casually clicked on the comment section below, intending to see everyone's comments, but upon looking, he was speechless.

The top comments below were all saying that this was simply too dark!

"Xiaoyao": There are actually still people who think this isn't wrong? What's wrong with you, police can just beat people at will now, right? I hope your family gets beaten like this too! (smiley face)

"Mengli Hualuo": I didn't even look at the comment section and I knew there would definitely be 'know-it-alls' standing out to say this is fake. It doesn't matter, anyway, I've only seen good police online; I've seen too many of these things around me. This is clearly a Retaliatory Attack!

"Xianyu Yitiao": Those who are whitewashing, please stop, okay? I've already guessed how they will reply later: it's just a temp worker.

The hot comments were almost all like this. Many people were filled with righteous indignation, believing that the heat must be increased, and those "temp workers" must be punished!

And those who stood out to say that this video had some signs of being faked were almost all labeled as whitewashing dogs.

This is a situation that hasn't changed even after Zhou Mouren has been serious many times; everyone still rarely lets the bullets fly for a while.

Sometimes, situations where people are being used will appear.

"Walking 500,000" has now become a joke; after all, because of certain reasons, as soon as something happens, someone jumps out to mock it, saying things like "the responsibility lies with the United States" or "it's all the United States' fault."

This might be real mockery, or it might be to confuse the situation; with truth and falsehood mixed, no one can tell. However, the ideological struggle has never ceased; it is just covered by the fog of the internet, making it impossible to discern.

Anyway, Zhang Kai discovered that the heat of this incident was rising absurdly.

A moment ago, he found that this incident only had 30,000 likes, and in a short while, it reached 40,000, 50,000...

The number of comments was increasing at an unbelievable speed.

He hurriedly opened another app to check; it was also on the hot search, and many people with "Big V" titles started to speak out again.

Either they were mocking, or they were saying that this matter must be severely punished without leniency!

Likewise, those comments saying the video was a bit fake were directly blasted.

Thus, when Zhou Yi got up the next morning, the hot search he saw was this.

"Isn't that Deng Jiafeng? Who posted the video online? Do they not want to live anymore?" Zhou Yi said with a shocked expression.

Zhou Xinran, who was to the side, was also very surprised and said: "What are they trying to do? Did their brain snap?"

Anyone with even a little knowledge of the law wouldn't do such a thing.

Deng Jiafeng is already inside; I don't know how deep the relationship is between the person who posted the video and the other party, to insist on going inside to keep them company!

…………

On the other side, Feng Jianhua was woken up by a phone call. After he posted the video yesterday, he felt stifled in his heart, so he went to drink.

Therefore, he had no idea how much of a sensation his video had caused.

His phone rang; he looked and saw it was a strange number, so he rejected the call directly. He was in a bad mood now.

But he couldn't sleep anymore, so he planned to see how the video was doing. As a result, he was stunned the moment he opened the app. How come after not looking for one night, it seemed like the whole internet was talking about his business!

However, Feng Jianhua immediately started to get excited. With such great heat, what else is there to worry about? Such great public opinion could directly crush those two police officers.

As for anything else, Feng Jianhua wasn't worried at all.

Don't think he doesn't understand the law; he specifically looked it up online yesterday, and his behavior should count as defamation—yes, that's right, defamation.

But, you see, the legal articles found online all say it doesn't constitute Defamation, because Defamation can only be directed at a person.

So there definitely won't be any trouble; when the time comes, he'll just have them release his wife so they can live their lives properly.

Thinking this, Feng Jianhua went back to sleep; his brain was indeed malfunctioning, and he hadn't sobered up from the alcohol yet.

As a result, not long after, the door was knocked on!

At the same time, online, the official account representing the Jingzhou City public security system, Peaceful Jingzhou, had already released the latest bulletin!

One update for today; starting tomorrow, it will resume.

Thanks to Red Moonlight in the Sea, Another Newbie, Little Fierce, Feimaowuyu, No Regrets, Wenchidage, and Yu Min; it's mainly because the later plot is stuck, and the plot I prepared is a bit difficult to bring out because it's not that closely related to the protagonist, so I'm currently pondering removing two plot points... and then planning to put the removed plot into the next book.
