Chapter 29: First Hearing [The Objection Is Over Rule]

Both looked at the court jury.

Guan hammered and spoke, "The objection is over rule,"

This caused a thorough disappointment in the lawyers panel.

Initially, they bore some hopes that since they were among senior lawyers, this jury who often has encountered them would show some flexibility toward them, their hopes shattered and they left gritting teeth inside.

Yue continued his arguments in a well learned manner.

At the end of hearing, still the defense lawyer was able to get another date for the next hearing to prepare for the case.

The judges cannot decide this matter in a single hearing especially when it's circumstances were not that ordinary.

Both, prosecution and defense lawyers wanted to win it no matter what and they won't accept it until they were done with their utmost efforts and moreover this was just beginning.

"This court is giving both parties enough time to come with the strong evidences, the next date for the second hearing is one week after first hearing, this court is adjourned till next week," Guan issued the order.

The panel was worried why the court gave such short time but according to the court, the later the date they gave, the easier it will be to arrange false evidences and stray the court.

The people bowed to the court and jury left first.

Yue tidied up his bench and collected the stack of papers, he carefully placed them in his brief case and stood up to leave.

The senior lawyer was convulsing with anger, he never faced such humiliation in any case, to add to insult from a newbie.

He dialed a number and whispered few words and hung up the call.

He looked at the young man and his brief case.

"You called someone? are you going to tell that tycoon that you lost face in the first hearing?" his friend snickered.

Both were friends and he could tell that his friend was suffering traumatic insult.

"No, I called Zen," he gritted his teeth.

His friend heard and forgot to react immediately, his face was agape and he was looking around whether someone heard them or not.

"You called that notorious Zen, what is running in your head?" he put his hand on his mouth and asked.

"Can't you see already, he is showing one after another evidence, I wanted Zen to snatch that briefcase and given him a little beating too, it would be enough stop this unbridled horse," he frowned while looking toward Yue Jing.

Yue Jing was packing his stuff and it seemed he was not worried at all.

He could neglect many things but if he happened to hear that another person compared him with some animal, he would surely rose up his brows once, to think that people started to compare him with animals, what was wrong with their eyesight or was there something terrible about him?

He would definitely go through the trouble to look himself in the mirror taking off his suit.

"If someone caught wind of it?" the second lawyer who gave it another thought asked his friend who was bent on to create problem for this young man.

If court really find out through any means that they did such felonious act, the court has authority to revoke their licenses.

He was perspiring to think about it, how he would define his wrongful decision, and what would his people think about him if the matter disclosed publicly, he was sure to lose his entire experienced years and earn never ending insult at the end of the day.

"Don't fear, I know what I am doing, and that terrible Zen is experienced in such matters, be man and don't you want to give this young man some slapping on his face as he did just now to us?" the senior lawyer patted the shoulders of his friend.

The basic reason, why he hired Zen was to snatch the briefcase, he was sure that this inexperienced young man was carrying with him all the evidences to present in the court.

If he could get hold on them, he would be able to manipulate the next hearing strongly.

Yue Jing left the court and walked out of the building.

He was intending to go straight to his law firm and prepare for next hearing, he also wanted to share some of logical points with the senior lawyers and take their opinions on the matter.

Unfortunately, the place where court and other official buildings were located, no public transportation was allowed to enter in this area.

Yue took a pedestrian road to walk toward the law firm which was on some distance.

He could not understand the last glance of his opponent lawyer and he was thinking about it.

He was also thinking to check the status of his opponent panel, it would be easy to understand then what kind of tips and tricks they could use in the next hearing.

He knew a little about them, they have spent many years in this field.

He was little curious why they choose to remain lawyers after gaining much experience, they could have applied for jury position according to their experience but he did not think the possibility of earning big while remaining lawyers, and bounded being a jury personal.

Jury personals have many, many rules to abide by.

Suddenly a short van stopped at his feet, this van would have run over him if he actively had not jumped back.

Four rough looking man came out and without giving a warning, one of them who was bulky enough gave a blow at his face.

He fortunately passed it but his briefcase fell on the ground.

Someone immediately picked it and threw inside the van, another man kicked Yue Jing in his stomach.

He now understood the last glance of that senior lawyer.

Sānjí Jîngjiān was happened to witness this, he was here to attend a case proceeding as it was about the city sub-bureau and he was called by the jury.

He was ready to go back when he saw Yue but before he could wave his hand, he saw a van stopped in front of Yue Jing.

He ran fast and fired with his gun to threaten the people who were surrounding Yue Jing.
