But there is also a problem.

What is the purpose of submitting these cases?

At the very least, they are for reference and to improve the legal system!

The law concerning 18-year-olds is unshakable; it cannot even be touched.

Even though it can lead others to think and expose the facades of minors like Duan Feipeng, if it's really taken as a reference case, in future cases involving minors under 18, we'd have to go through the tedious process of mutual identity verification...

This seems unreasonable.

Moreover.

What if someone uses this for reference, creating false evidence and misleading the judge with an identity of 18 or 19, resulting in a death penalty?

"This..."

The dean frowned, showing some hesitation.

Until...

"I think it can be reported, but the reason for submission shouldn't be age disguise!"

Shi Shan suddenly frowned and spoke solemnly.

Upon hearing.

Everyone turned their heads to look at him, and the dean also pondered slightly and asked.

"What insight does Chief Judge Shi have?"

Shi Shan said, "This case should not be examined for submission based on Duan Feipeng."

"It should be based on the deceased and others!"

The deceased and others...

Everyone was momentarily dazed, then immediately turned serious.

That's right.

The amendment of the law should not only make the sentencing more comprehensive.

It should also make society more perfect!!!

"The key issue of this case lies in the social status of Wu Yong and the deceased!"

"It's hard to imagine that in today's urban areas, people would eat Guanyin Earth just to fill their stomachs!"

"Moreover, when faced with an insult to their dignity, their first reaction is not to call the police but to endure it..."

Shi Shan's words were not impassioned but echoed in everyone's ears on the scene.

He frowned and said solemnly:

"The reason lies in the fact that their status is so low."

"So low that even though they have complete human rights, society does not recognize it!"

Upon hearing.

Everyone's hearts sank instantly.

These words were exactly what Xu Liang said during the second trial at the High Court!

The focus of the case should be on the deceased side!

It's not limited to Hanhai City, nor just to Lanshan Province.

Looking at the entirety of Eastern Country, the social status of people like Wu Yong, the homeless, and beggars is absurdly low!

Just as Wu Yong said back then.

When a child bullies another homeless child, the homeless child can only be passively beaten.

If they resist, they will only receive a heavier beating!

They have the right to call the police, but what happens after they call?

When police often arrive at the scene facing a loathed, sly-looking homeless person and an ordinary child...

Even if they meet someone reasonable, they will only mediate and won't get the compensation they deserve.

And if they meet someone unreasonable...

"If the murderer wasn't a young man like Duan Feipeng but an older middle-aged man."

"After killing the deceased and others, dumping the bodies by the riverside, would the case still show this situation today?"

Shi Shan posed another question.

The answer is definitely no without even thinking!

It's even possible that it wouldn't be discovered or filed.

Just like what Xu Liang said in court back then.

Even if they die, they would die as half-wild dogs, not as humans.

Thinking of this.

Everyone's hearts felt incredibly heavy, they were silent, not knowing what to say.

Legally, they are recognized as humans.

Society also acknowledges them as humans.

But their real living environment is like that of half-wild dogs!

Even some female homeless people and beggars have another label.

'Free x slaves!'

Ordinary people, when violated or harassed, would call the police to maintain their rights.

But for female homeless people... their likely fate is to die from difficult childbirth during unknown pregnancies.

"I propose to amend this submission file!"

Shi Shan took a deep breath and looked seriously at the dean.

"We shouldn't just focus on Duan Feipeng, the deceased..."

"We need to speak up for them!"

After these words.

Everyone present nodded, even those who previously doubted the submission now supported it instead.

"Alright, with Chief Judge Shi responsible for the second trial of this case, he will also handle the amendments."

The dean also agreed with these words and promptly consented.

When something does no harm and touches no other factors, and can benefit others, generally no one will obstruct, and there might even be people pushing it forward!

The High Court is no exception!

Had it not been for Shi Shan, if they pressed this case down...

This might lead to future occurrences of Liu Yong, Sun Yong, Zhang Yong, rather than completely removing the plight faced by the deceased!

And this situation was nearly overlooked by them!!!

Thinking of this.

The dean looked at the other judges and couldn't help but say:

"Everyone should learn from Chief Judge Shi in the future!"

"A case should not have only one perspective!"

Hearing this, Shi Shan actually felt a bit embarrassed.

He shook his head and said:

"This is what the plaintiff said, I'm just passing it on."

Plaintiff?

Xu Liang's words!?

A lawyer with such a perspective?

Thinking of this, the dean felt shocked and, seeing Shi Shan's genuine expression, he sighed:

"This kid... would do so well in public office!"

"Who says otherwise."

Shi Shan nodded.

If he went into public office and maintained his original intent, he might accomplish a lot...

But it's also fine for others to handle things!

"Submit the report."

The dean said.

"Send it to the Supreme Court."

"Whether it's admitted... that's for them to decide personally!"

...

...

Xu Liang doesn't want to go into public office.

According to him.

Is public office faster at making money than lawyering!!!

An elite financial lawyer is practically a money printing machine, with every second being money in motion!

"A million, if working as a civil servant, you'd never earn that in a lifetime!"

Five thirty in the afternoon.

Inside Hongfu Street Law Firm.

Xu Liang's face was full of emotions, then he got excited, and he walked out with Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu.

"Wow!"

The law firm's doors were closed.

The three squeezed into the car.

This morning, the law firm received a call.

It was a client call.

The caller claimed to discuss a contract worth over a million!

A million!

Last time Chengen Law Firm had an unlucky guy who nearly lost his career on a contract worth no more than a million!

Now Xu Liang encounters this...

From June 2004 till now, in March, nearly a full year, Xu Liang only earned five hundred thousand.

Now this one case is worth two years...

"Indeed, a lawyer needs fame to earn well."

Sitting in the car, Xu Liang showed a face of sentimentality.

"Before, not to mention a million, I couldn't even see a ten thousand commission..."

Indeed, a lawyer needs criminal cases to gain fame.

Fame brings financial cases for profits!

A year ago, last March, April, where was any million-level commission for Xu Liang?

Even at a few bucks an hour consultation, only the police were willing to pay!

Now, a few bucks an hour consultation?

Leave it to the hard-working intern Su Yu!

Now, this million-dollar client, according to the caller, is not in Hanhai City but close, at the border of Hongfu District.

Driving takes only an hour.

Thinking of this.

Xu Liang felt excited inside, seeing the two girls sitting snugly in the car, he didn't hesitate and stepped on the accelerator.

But then...

"Did you take the wrong road?!"

In a daze, Yang Ruoxi spoke, curiously looking at the scenery around.

She realized it wasn't the direction toward the edge of Hongfu District.

And indeed, she was right.

"Not the wrong way, we need to stop by the police station, I asked Chao to get a few days off from Captain Chen."

"We'll pick him up and go together."

Xu Liang said.

Picking up Wang Chao?

"What for!?" Yang Ruoxi frowned, slightly confused.

"You're silly, that's a million-dollar commission!"

Xu Liang replied discontentedly.

A million-dollar commission... honestly, there's hardly anything clean about them.

If it's civil... a civil commission worth a million, Xu Liang would wear full armor before seeing what's up.

Criminal is self-explanatory.

At least ten have to die to make a million!

The caller didn't clarify the case type, but judging by the tone and emotion...

It's likely a personal commission.

This pretty much rules out financial commission possibilities.

Without Wang Chao, Xu Liang feels uneasy!

Just...

"You dare take it without knowing the nature!?" Su Yu and Yang Ruoxi were shocked.

"You're both naïve!"

Xu Liang was highly dissatisfied, speaking while driving.

"That's..."

"A full million!!!"
