Chapter 550
Two days later.

Friday.

Seoul District Court.

The first trial of Yang Rentai's case is about to begin.

That morning, dozens of reporters crowded in front of the court, waiting for the protagonist to arrive.

A black car stopped.

Li Dongxu pushed the door and stepped out of the car.

He is Yang Rentai's representative lawyer, and the reporters have long been familiar with it.

However, their target today is not Li Dongxu, but former congressman Yang Rentai.

Liang Haizheng kept the news of Yang Rentai's injury in the detention center secret, and the outside world didn't know it at all.

Li Dongxu avoided the reporters who wanted to interview and walked quickly into the lobby of the Seoul District Court.

The reporters didn't hesitate and continued to wait.

It's a pity that we waited and waited, but the protagonist never came.
-
at the same time.

Second criminal court.

Yang Rentai's case is proceeding in an orderly manner.

On the trial table, the assistant judge on the right got up again, took the document and began to read.

"Case No. 80003333 is now being heard. Are there any absences from the prosecution and the defendant?"

Hearing the sound, Fan Yuanzong, the prosecutor's representative, stood up and said, "Your Excellency, no one from the prosecutor's office is absent."

On the presiding judge's platform.

Judge Pei Wanhou looked at the empty seat of the defendant and frowned.

Li Dongxu stood up.

"Your Honor, Mr. Yang Rentai had a conflict with his roommate during the detention center and was hospitalized urgently."

"So he couldn't come to the court hearing and entrusted me with full authority to handle it."

With that said, he took out a document.

"This is a power of attorney from Mr. Yang Rentai!"

Upon seeing this, the clerk went to the dock to take over the documents and handed them over to the presiding judge Pei Wanhou.

The content of the power of attorney is very simple, and the final signature part is stamped to prove the authenticity of the document.

In fact, except for the seal, this power of attorney is all fake.

After reading it, Pei Wanhou accepted the power of attorney.

"Okay, I understand."

Then, he picked up the gavel and hit it a few times.

Da da da.
The crisp knocking sound echoed in the courtroom.

Yang Rentai's case involved privacy, and Li Dongxu applied for a closed-door trial.

Pei Wanhou also considered Yang Rentai's status as a former congressman and agreed to the request.

There are only ten people in the courtroom at the moment.

"I announce that the case number 80003333 is officially accepted for trial!"

As soon as this word comes out

Fan Yuanzong got up immediately.

"Your Excellency, the prosecution will formally prosecute Yang Rentai for homicide, illegal bodily harm, tax evasion, bribery, and refusal to pay labor remuneration."

The prosecution presented evidence.

Crackling, Yang Rentai became a heinous existence in Fan Yuanzong's mouth.

At the same time, the atmosphere at the scene was very strange.

Several times Fan Yuanzong was about to directly convict Yang Rentai, but Li Dongxu did not refute it.

Pei Wanhou sensed the abnormality, and quietly observed both the prosecution and the defense.

After a few minutes.

Fan Yuanzong took a breath and said, "Your Excellency, the prosecution has obtained enough evidence, and I'm done."

Pei Wanhou nodded and looked at Li Dongxu.

"Lawyer Li, what do you want to say?"

Li Dongxu stood up calmly and said with a smile: "We cannot contest the evidence provided by the prosecution."

"So on behalf of my client, I pleaded guilty in court and accepted the trial."

"In addition, I implore, Your Excellency, for the sake of Mr. Yang Rentai's sincere repentance, to ask for a lighter sentence!"

The voice fell.

Pei Wanhou thought he heard it wrong, so he subconsciously picked his ears.

Let alone him, the other two assistant judges and the two clerks also looked confused.

This trial can be said to be the fastest in their lives.

Pei Wanhou took a deep breath and confirmed again: "Lawyer Li, do you understand what you are talking about!"

Li Dongxu said solemnly: "Your Excellency, I know very well what I'm going to say."

"My client, Mr. Yang Rentai, regrets the wrong things he did in the past."

"He wants to atone as soon as possible, and he doesn't want to waste taxpayers' money on this matter"

"Your Excellency, Mr. Yang Rentai told me the above himself a few days ago."

Pei Wanhou frowned.

He looked at Fan Yuanzong, then at Li Dongxu.

Then, Pei Wanhou said again: "Prosecutor, do you have anything to say?"

Fan Yuanzong shook his head.

Li Zaihua ordered to end the case as quickly as possible, so he dared not talk too much.

"Your Honor, the prosecution has no objection!"

At this time, Pei Wanhou's eyes flashed a cold light.

He could tell that Fan Yuanzong and Li Dongxu seemed to have reached some kind of agreement.

Yang Rentai was not injured sooner or later, there must be something strange in it.

Guess what you guessed.

Pei Wanhou didn't bother to take care of it. A congressman who was abandoned by the party was not worthy of his attention.

"Well, in half an hour, I will announce the verdict!"

After speaking, Pei Wanhou led the two assistant judges away.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Both the prosecution and the defense sat in chairs, quietly waiting for the judge's announcement.

creak!

The door to the interior of the courtroom is open.

Pei Wanhou and two assistant judges filed out.

Return to the judgment seat.

Pei Wanhou struck the gavel again.

"After my careful consideration, due to the seriousness of the crime committed by the defendant Yang Rentai, I decided to punish several crimes together."

"Now I make the following judgment and sentence the defendant Yang Rentai to life imprisonment!"

Immediately afterwards, he turned his gaze to both the prosecution and the defense.

"Prosecutor Fan, do you have any objections?"

"The prosecution has no objections."

"Lawyer Li, do you want to appeal?"

Li Dongxu shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, my client sincerely repents, no matter what the trial result is, we will accept it!"

Hear this.

Da da da.
The sound of the hammer being struck sounded.

While waving the gavel, Pei Wanhou said, "The trial of case number 80003333 is over, and the prosecution and the defense have no objections, so we will leave the court!"

Before leaving.

Pei Wanhou took a deep look at Fan Yuanzong and Li Dongxu.

After people leave.

Li Dongxu walked towards the prosecutor, extended his hand generously and said, "Prosecutor Fan, congratulations!"

After winning the lawsuit, Fan Yuanzong was in a good mood.

"Thank you. I am very happy that Yang Rentai can repent and rehabilitate. I hope he can make good atonement in prison."

Li Dongxu smiled.

"Thank you, Prosecutor Fan, for your concern for my client. I believe that Mr. Yang Rentai will sincerely correct his mistakes."

Having said that, he whispered again: "Congratulations to Prosecutor Fan!"

The meeting of the chief ministers discussed the matter of the ministers of the eight criminal departments, which had already spread throughout the Supreme Prosecutor's Office.

Lee Dong Wook is also well-informed.

To be honest, he was very jealous of Fan Yuanzong's luck.

If you don't collect money indiscriminately, maybe the position of the head of the Criminal Division [-] of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office is your own.

However, the matter has come to this point, no matter how much Li Dongxu thinks about it, it is useless.

"Prosecutor Fan, do you want to have dinner together tonight?"

Fan Yuanzong thought about it.

He knew very well that Li Dongxu was in the same group as his minister, otherwise Yang Rentai's case would not have ended so easily.

"No problem, I'm the winner today, and I'll treat you!"
