Disciplinary Guidelines

"Listen?" Ji Yao was stunned, pointed at himself, and said, "Me?"

"Yes, you." Jiang Heng smiled and said, "Actually, there is something wrong with Zhou Fang's case, so I want to ask if you would like to testify in court."

The more Ji Yao listened, the more confused he became. According to his previous understanding, the nature of Zhou Fang's case was completely different from Liu Qiang's. She tampered with Li Wen's car and wanted him to die in a car accident, and it was not simply delaying the rescue time. Logically speaking , Looking for witnesses, I couldn't find the doctor's head.

But Jiang Heng is a person who distinguishes between public and private. If it is not necessary, he should not do this kind of useless work, just to bring his family to watch the fun.

Jiang Heng seemed to see Ji Yao's confusion, so he slightly let go of his arm, leaned forward and took a document from the coffee table.

"It's a fact that Zhou Fang bribed a repairman to destroy Li Wen's brakes. It was a deliberate murder." Jiang Heng said: "But I don't know who gave her the idea to ask her to apply for a third-party testing agency. The car was inspected in depth at the time of departure."

It was Jiang Heng who investigated Zhou Fang's case at the beginning, and he knew all the major elements of the case.The case was clear and clear, and the chains of evidence were intertwined. In addition to Liu Qiang and Zhou Fang, the accomplice of the repairman was also successfully arrested and brought to justice. He also obtained the chat record evidence of the confession ordered by Zhou Fang. A fairness can be obtained, but the problem lies in the last test report.

When Li Wen had an accident, he had indeed chosen the car that Zhou Fang had tampered with, but the inspection report showed that Li Wen did not step on the brakes when the accident happened.

In other words, the essential cause of Li Wen's car crash was not the damaged brakes, but purely Li Wen's own poor driving skills, which caused the damage to the vehicle and eventually died of his injuries.

After the test report came out, Zhou Fang immediately changed her uncooperative attitude and simply admitted the matter, but she only said that she wanted to teach Li Wen a "lesson" and hurt him, but she didn't think about it. It was purely an accident to kill him.

As soon as the news came out, Jiang Heng went to the racing track several times, and found that the racing track did have anti-rollover protection devices made of soft tires. Even if the vehicle hits at full speed, there will be no very serious accident consequences.

For example, in Li Wen's car, there was no structural break in the front bumper. It was purely because the steel plate of the console pierced into Li Wen's abdominal cavity that he died.

There is no doubt, even if Jiang Heng is sure that Zhou Fang did not know the protection situation of this private membership racing track before, it is difficult to find strong evidence to prove this.

So this problem suddenly became complicated. Li Linghua fainted when she heard the news, and she couldn't accept the result of "intentional murder" becoming "intentional injury".

"...It's amazing." Ji Yao took a breath and said, "Isn't this going to change from no period to three years? Who gave her an idea, it's so ruthless."

"Who else is there?" Jiang Heng sighed helplessly, and said, "Lawyer."

"Didn't she buy all the money she got from Liu Qiang?" Ji Yao said, "Is there still money to hire such a powerful lawyer?"

"The legal aid came." Jiang Heng said, "It's a very experienced teacher. I have dealt with it before."

"Then what's the use of asking me to testify?" Ji Yao still didn't understand: "Proving that Li Wen was indeed injured by the car...? It doesn't seem to make any sense."

"That surgery notice." Jiang Heng said, "You still remember it."

Of course Ji Yao remembered that the notice almost cost him a lot. If it wasn't for Jiang Heng's ingenious handling of things, he would have already been punished and paid a huge amount of compensation for "failing procedures".

"I remember." Ji Yao said, "You want to say...she signed the form, so her motives are not good?"

"Yes." Jiang Heng said: "We retrieved the chat records between her and Liu Qiang, which clearly proved that she knew about Liu Qiang's AIDS. Just a week before the accident, because of a quarrel with Liu Qiang, she did it on her own. HIV screening."

"So we are going to start from this angle and avoid the matter of not stepping on the brakes." Jiang Heng said: "Li Linghua knows that he has wronged you, so he dare not invite you rashly for the time being, and entrusts me to check your tone first. "

"Of course." Jiang Heng said: "Testimony is not mandatory, you can think about it yourself."

"Think about it yourself?" Ji Yao raised his eyebrows: "If I am so important, can Li Linghua agree to give up this spider silk?"

"As an attorney, I would also like to ask you to lend a helping hand." Jiang Heng said, "But you still have the freedom to choose. If you really don't want to agree, it doesn't matter."

Ji Yao knelt on the sofa with one knee, and looked down at Jiang Heng for a while, as if weighing in his heart.

Jiang Heng blinked, and looked at him innocently and sincerely. The two of them looked at each other for a while, and finally Ji Yao couldn't help breaking his kung fu first, and burst out laughing.

"Just go." Ji Yao said, "But I have to report to our hospital leader first."

"Okay." Jiang Heng seemed to have known that he would agree, bent his eyes, and asked aggressively: "Don't blame her for wronging you before?"

"She was also deceived." Ji Yao said.

When Li Linghua sent him to a desperate situation so aggressively, Ji Yao resented her.He felt chilled at that time, and even looked at Jiang Heng as if he was an enemy who couldn't tell right from wrong, but later he gradually discovered that Li Linghua was also deceived, and that hostility disappeared inexplicably.

And although this idea disrespects the deceased, Ji Yao sometimes thinks that if there is no case, maybe he and Jiang Heng will not get back together again.

If there was no deeper connection between them, if Ji Yao hadn't asked Jiang Heng for an answer because of doubts and reluctance, then Jiang Heng might not have dropped the bait called "courage" on impulse, Ji Yao He will not just take the bait, and try his best to walk towards Jiang Heng little by little, to re-do the mistakes he once made.

In that case, the "dual relationship" between the bar and the hospital might become the last encounter between him and Jiang Heng, and then they would avoid each other, and finally get separated in this vast city. cross the road.

After getting back together, Ji Yao sometimes thinks of this possibility, and feels lingering fear in his heart, and he is really afraid.

"What's more, if I don't agree, what will you do?" Ji Yao asked.

"Me?" Jiang Heng thought for a while, and said, "Let's find other ways and evidence. It's hard not to sue."

"That's it." Ji Yao slid off Jiang Heng's body and said vaguely: "You are always running around, and you don't eat your last meal. It's my interests that are harmed."

Ji Yao raised his eyebrows as he spoke, and hooked Jiang Heng's chin frivolously.

"Did you see it?" Ji Yao said: "How important connections are, how many detours can be avoided."

"Isn't it?" Jiang Heng cooperated with a funny voice: "I have been a relationship with you twice."

"Twice?" Ji Yao was stunned for a moment, then asked suspiciously, "Which one more time?"

And that time in the hospital, Jiang Heng thought.

But he obviously didn't intend to tell Ji Yao so easily, so he stood up and kissed Ji Yao with a smile, and then walked into the bedroom with the documents with a smile without saying a word, leaving only a mysterious back view on Ji Yao.

Ji Yao: "..."

Jiang Heng likes to play tricks on these messy little things, but Ji Yao is very curious but has nothing to do with him, so he can't help but slander a bad guy in his heart.

He should be allowed to work overtime, Ji Yao thought, so that he would not have the time to engage in these little things all day long.

However, the slander belongs to the slander, and early the next morning, Ji Yao still went to Director Hao to explain the situation.

The public opinion on Zhou Fang's matter was very bad. Although Ji Yao didn't pay much attention, he also received local news push intermittently.Especially after the time for the trial was confirmed, the incident became a hot search again, bringing back most of the attention that had dissipated before.

After all, this matter involves the hospital, Ji Yao did not dare to make a rash decision by himself, so he was going to report to the police first.

"Although this matter is indeed a matter of helping others, are you sure you want to get involved again?" Hao Yu raised her head sadly, and said, "It took so long for you to get out of this matter. If you are not careful Get involved, be careful not to lose.”

"I know." Ji Yao said, "But the case of medical malpractice is over, I'm just going to be a witness."

"You are still young and don't understand these things." Hao Yu took off his presbyopic glasses and said earnestly: "Your case is closed, but if someone with a heart digs deeper into your matter, anything may happen in the public opinion When the time comes, your reputation may also be damaged, you have to think about it yourself."

Ji Yao thought about this issue, but he felt that since Jiang Heng asked him to testify, he should be fully prepared and would not push him into the fire pit.

"I've made up my mind." Ji Yao said, "As long as it doesn't affect the reputation of the hospital."

Hao Yu saw that he had made up his mind, so he hesitated for a while, not daring to give him a firm answer, and said, "I'll ask the dean, you wait with me for a while."

Ji Yao knew that this matter was of great importance, and it might cause public opinion to question the hospital's rules and regulations and rescue procedures, so he nodded to express his understanding.

Hao Yu poured him a glass of water, then walked out of the office to discuss the situation with the dean.

After half an hour, Director Hao went back and forth, nodded as soon as he entered the door, and said, "The director agrees."

"Really?" Ji Yao's eyes lit up, he stood up from the sofa, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Dean, for me."

"The dean said that the purpose of a doctor's treatment is to save people, and to testify against a vicious incident is also to avenge people. There is no difference between the two." Hao Yu said worriedly: "You should pay attention to yourself, and don't talk nonsense when the time comes. Save yourself trouble."

"I know." Ji Yao said, "Don't worry."

Ji Yao has been in court once, and he didn't take this matter to heart at first, thinking that it would be over if he told the truth, and there was nothing to be afraid of.However, it wasn't until the court hearing on Wednesday that he realized that Jiang was still old and spicy. Hao Yu's worries were not unreasonable.

The nature of Zhou Fang's incident was different from that of Ji Yao at that time. In principle, she might be convicted of attempted murder, so the first trial was in the intermediate court.

The court session was at nine o'clock in the morning. Ji Yao went to the court with him in Jiang Heng's car, and was stunned by the media's posture at the gate of the court from a long distance away.

"...Why are there so many people?" Ji Yao said in shock: "These people are going to go in and take pictures soon?"

Some media gathered at the gate of the court, and there were more than a dozen cameras. Ji Yao squinted his eyes and took a look, and found that in addition to local stations, there were also several online media with a strong voice.

Prior to this, Ji Yao only knew that the impact of this incident was not good, but he didn't expect it to be so bad, and his heart was inevitably a little bit drummed.

"They don't go in." Jiang Heng said: "Only two official media outlets will go in to film for a while. There will be no media during the court, but the trial process will be broadcast live."

Ji Yao hissed softly, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes couldn't stop drifting out of the window.

"How could there be such a big trouble." Ji Yao said, "It's been several months."

"It's one thing to be bad in nature, and there are also moral and ethical issues. In addition, the background of this case resonates too much with ordinary people, so this fire has been stirred up." Jiang Heng glanced at Ji Yao from the corner of his eye as he spoke. Seeing that he was still nervous, he simply stretched out his arms to grab his hand, and put it on his lap: "Why are you nervous, isn't it me?"

"What's the use of having you." Ji Yao muttered, "If you can manage the judgment, can you also control what the media say?"

"Yes." Jiang Heng said with a smile: "Otherwise, let's make a bet. I guarantee that after this trial, even if there are public opinions about you outside, they will all praise you. Do you believe it?"

Ji Yao looked at him dubiously, but before he could answer, Jiang Heng's car had already entered the gate of the court and parked in the parking lot.

Like the last time, Li Linghua came very early, stepped forward almost as soon as Jiang Heng stopped the car, and knocked on his car window.

With outsiders around, Ji Yao couldn't make jokes with Jiang Heng anymore, so he didn't say anything, opened the passenger door and got out of the car.

There used to be tit-for-tat conflicts, and Li Linghua was a little unnatural when facing Ji Yao. She lowered her eyes to avoid Ji Yao's sight, greeted him vaguely, and then turned to ask about Jiang Heng's case.

Jiang Heng comforted her as usual, and then led Li Linghua and Ji Yao into the court, where they settled down.

Witnesses have an early recusal system and cannot participate in the hearing, so after the court session, Ji Yao stayed alone in the lounge next to him, waiting for news from the court.

This is a boring job. Cases involving human life are tried in a trivial and complicated way. At first, Ji Yao could sit in his seat and wait with peace of mind, but after waiting for a while, he was really bored, so he just took out his phone and started playing. Greedy snake.

The witnesses in this case are not only Gu Yao, but also two young girls and another repair factory worker.Ji Yao didn't know who they were, but after two hours of the court session, they were all called out one by one.

They didn't come back after they went out, Ji Yao stood up a little nervously, couldn't help but glanced out of the door frame.

It's a pity that the door of the court room is tightly closed, and no wind can be heard.

It was not until more than an hour later that Ji Yao was notified to testify in court.He seemed to be Jiang Heng's last "trump card". When he opened the door and entered the court, the atmosphere inside was already tense.

Jiang Heng was wearing a pair of silver half-rim glasses, the neckline was slightly opened, and was tightened by the tie, and it was packed into the suit.

A piece of white paper in front of him was densely filled with notes. Li Linghua was sitting in the gallery, had passed out from crying, and was leaning on a young woman, panting with difficulty.

Zhou Fang stood on the dock, her eyes lowered and she didn't speak, and she didn't even look at Ji Yao.Instead, the defendant's defense lawyer looked up at Ji Yao, made eye contact with him briefly, and then smiled politely.

Ji Yao's eyes hurriedly swept over everyone in the room, his heart was beating wildly.

"Witness No. [-]." The public prosecutor said: "On the day of the car accident, the victim was taken to your hospital by ambulance for treatment. During the treatment, the defendant signed the consent form for the operation, right?"

"Yes." Ji Yao swallowed, and said, "It's her."

"Did she voluntarily reveal her identity at that time, or voluntarily inform the victim of her physical condition?" asked the prosecutor.

"No." Ji Yao replied, "No."

"sure?"

"determine."

Ji Yao was already familiar with the questioning process of the public prosecution case, but this time it was probably because of the greater influence, so the questioning was more repetitive and cumbersome.

There are three cameras in the front and back of the court room, Ji Yao couldn't help raising his eyes, and quickly glanced at the one directly opposite.

Ordinary people who are not used to being exposed to the public view are easily nervous when they first stand in the public domain, and Ji Yao is no exception. He sweated in his palms and couldn't help but glance at Jiang Heng.

Perhaps it was a tacit understanding, Jiang Heng just dropped a stroke, then raised his head, and his eyes met him for a brief moment.

Unlike at home, Jiang Heng didn't look gentle or conniving today, but instead had a kind of indifference that rejected people thousands of miles away.But he was very calm, his eyes were calm and peaceful, Ji Yao licked his lips, unexpectedly calmed down in his eyes for no reason.

Following the prosecutor's questioning, he briefly recalled the scene that day, and described Zhou Fang's performance that day as detailed as possible.

"At that time, Liu Qiang refused to sign, so the situation was critical, so we asked the defendant to sign." Ji Yao said: "At that time she was still hesitant—"

Ji Yao paused when he said this, he didn't know if this "hesitation" counted as Zhou Fang's "repentance" plot, and he didn't know whether such details would have any impact on the current situation, but he weighed it , or truthfully said.

"She hesitated at the time, but finally signed it." Ji Yao said: "We didn't verify her identity at the time, and she didn't take the initiative to say anything."

"When signing, did you explain to her the risks of surgery and the risks of concealing infectious diseases?" the prosecutor asked.

"Yes." Ji Yao said firmly.

"The testimony of witness No. [-] and witness No. [-] has been cross-corroborated and is credible." The public prosecutor concluded.

"So we do not accept the defendant's defense." Jiang Heng said: "The defendant destroyed the vehicle first, and then concealed the key treatment facts. The motive is obviously not as simple as hurting people."

"We object." The defendant's defense lawyer quickly said: "The defendant does not have in-depth medical knowledge, and there may be a good faith misjudgment about the serious consequences of the treatment process. And based on the traces that the vehicle brakes have not been used, it can be obtained It is known that there is no direct causal relationship between the car accident and the defendant."

"There is no causal relationship in a car accident." Jiang Heng said: "But there will always be death without saving."

Jiang Heng raised his hand as he spoke, and signaled: "According to the chat records between witness No. [-] and the defendant, the defendant knew in advance that the victim was going to race that day, and he was at the scene when witness No. [-] talked with the victim. Under the actual possibility of fulfilling the obligation of notification, the defendant did not correct his mistake in time and remind the victim of the risks in the racing car, but let the victim go to the car for fun. This resulted in the victim being placed in a dangerous situation."

On the opposite seat, Ji Yao saw the defense lawyer frowning slightly, lowered his head and quickly flipped through two pages of documents in his hand.

"And after the car accident, the defendant did not explain the victim's pathological risk to the doctor even though the actual injury had been caused, which is another kind of omission." The death was caused by the medication error and the deterioration of the disease caused by the concealment of the disease, so it can be seen that the defendant's inaction is directly related to the cause of death of the victim."

"Based on the above points." Jiang Heng said: "We request that the defendant not be convicted of intentional homicide."
