Becoming a lawyer starts with raising a Xiezhi

Chapter 388
Zheng Haofeng had several stab wounds on his body, and he was sent to the detention center after he recovered.

Niu Zhao stared at his wound with wide eyes, feeling quite shocking.

"Your case is a bit troublesome, because someone is dead. As long as someone is dead, the police station will not dare to release them easily. I guess you may stay in the detention center temporarily and cannot help you get bail, but don't worry, I will I will do my best to defend you and protect your rights."

Meng Lang finished the meeting and finally said to Zheng Haofeng.

Zheng Haofeng did not speak. He was an honest farmer, silent and reticent. Perhaps he had never thought of committing a crime in his life, but at this moment, he was deeply imprisoned.

After leaving the detention center, Niu Zhao said, "Can this be considered as self-defense?"

After hearing this, Meng Lang pondered for a while and said, "It is possible, but you know that our country's determination of legitimate self-defense is extremely strict. Let alone a dead person, even if there is no dead person, even if you get a serious injury, you can be deemed to have overdone self-defense. That is our current judicial reality."

Niu Zhaodao: "This creates a situation where bad people dare to do bad things, but good people dare not resist. If it were abroad, and someone like him broke into someone's house, the owner would have shot the person to death, and You don’t have to take any responsibility yet.”

Meng Lang smiled and said: "The wind and rain can enter people's houses, but the king can't enter. The protection of houses in foreign countries is very strict. Unlike our country, we usually like to visit each other. The protection of houses has never been so good. strict."

"You mean, it has something to do with our country's culture? Everyone likes to hang out, so if someone breaks into your home, you don't think there's anything wrong with it, right?" Niu Zhao asked with a smile.

Meng Lang said: "That's right, Western countries have a strong individual consciousness, while our country has a strong collective consciousness. If the individual consciousness is strong, it requires others to respect everything that he personally owns, and when the collective consciousness is strong, the relationship between people will be stronger." To establish an acquaintance relationship, to help each other, to warm each other, favor is more important than everything, and the rules take a backstage. For example, in Western countries, even if you are familiar with the relationship, if you enter someone’s house without knocking, the host will definitely be unhappy. I even thought you were malicious, but in our country, among acquaintances, if you knock on the door politely, the host will say that you are born, right?"

Niu Zhao smiled and said, "But if bad people break into our house, will we still welcome it?"

Meng Lang said: "Of course we don't welcome it, but we won't show it too much, right? We won't point a gun at a bad guy and say, if you come in again, I'll shoot you. At most, you'll argue with him, so we The level of bickering in the country is high."

"The level of quarreling is very high? The level of swearing is very high, right?" Niu Zhao said.

Meng Lang laughed and said, "What you said is so to the point. When you go abroad, as long as you hear someone speaking loudly, nine out of ten people are from our country. This is the level of swearing that you have learned at home."

Niu Zhao said with a smile: "What's the use of swearing at the street, it still can't protect one's legal rights."

Meng Lang said: "If scolding can't solve it, then we need to fight. After a fight, the problem arises. It's hard to tell whose fault it is. Originally, it was your fault that you broke into my house, but the two of you Later, when the scolding started, both sides were responsible, and it turned into a fight. What about self-defense? You see, this is all caused by the different ways in which people in our country deal with problems."

Niu Zhaodao: "I don't think so. If you don't scold and start beating you, can it be considered as self-defense? I'm afraid it's even worse. The judge will say that they just came to look for you, and they didn't beat you and scold you, so you just beat you." People, the fault is all yours, any legitimate defense must be intentional injury."

Hearing this, Meng Lang laughed and said, "Our country does not encourage the use of force to solve problems. Things that can be solved with words must never be solved with force."

Niu Zhao said with a smile: "We can't bear it anymore. We don't need to bear it anymore. This has a lot to do with our culture, right?"

Meng Lang nodded and said, "That's right, our country has a long history, and the history of using force to solve problems has long passed. During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, did our country fight and kill every day? Right? Now the Yingjiang country likes it every day. Fighting and killing are actually things that our country has played, and sooner or later they will know that if they want to use force to solve problems, they will only cause more problems."

Niu Zhao laughed and said, "Why are you talking about national affairs? We're talking about Zheng Haofeng's self-defense right now."

Meng Lang said with a smile: "It's going too far for a while. If you want to say that it is the other party who wants to use force to solve the problem, not Zheng Haofeng's family. They participated in reporting the village secretary before, which is their legal right. Later, the village secretary's son led someone to beat him. He broke into his house and beat Zheng Haofeng's family, the other party was obviously at fault, now let's see if this kind of fault is enough to make Zheng Haofeng's murder legal and prevent his illegality."

Niu Zhao nodded and said, "Then what should we do now?"

Meng Lang thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Zheng Haofeng's village and take a look to understand the situation."

The two drove to the small village where Zheng Haofeng's case happened to investigate.

The evidence collected by the police mainly wants to prove Zheng Haofeng's guilt, while the evidence collected by the lawyer hopes to prove that Zheng Haofeng is guilty of a minor crime or is innocent. Therefore, if he can collect some evidence that is favorable to Zheng Haofeng and provide it to the court, then what will happen to him? The handling of the case will be beneficial.

Zheng Haofeng's village is a village with relatively good economic conditions. In a village like this, there will be more complicated conflicts of interest among the villagers.

The person who was killed was Xu Qiang, the son of the village secretary Xu Zuodong. Xu Zuodong had been the village party secretary in the village for five years. The family was corrupted, so many villagers began to report Xu Zuodong's behavior to the higher authorities.

And Zheng Haofeng is one of them.Of course, there is no love without reason, and there is no hatred without reason. The reason why Zheng Haofeng participated in the report was mainly because Xu Zuodong offended his family. Xu Zuodong did not allocate the land in the village to Zheng Haofeng's family, but to Zheng Haofeng's neighbor's family. In the opinion of Zheng Haofeng's family, Xu Zuodong was deliberately trying to mess with their family, and their neighbor must have given Xu Zuodong gifts.

However, these things cannot be verified now. Xu Zuodong must have some reasons to prove that he did nothing wrong and the land should be given to Zheng Haofeng's neighbor. The conflicts between the villagers cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. Even without this One thing, the relationship between the two may not be good, and there will be reports.
