Into Unscientific

Chapter 496 Justice Ends Up (Part 1)

As the lifeline city of China, Yanjing has many advantages.

For example, educational resources are abundant.

For example, advanced medical resources.

Another example is the blood-sucking cough cough, which has a strong ability to concentrate resources in the surrounding area.

But in addition to many advantages.

Yanjing also has many shortcomings.

For example, traffic jams, on weekends, go directly from the capital to the first traffic jam.

For example, frequent traffic control. Of course, this matter can not be said.

Another example.

its weather.

The temperature in Yanjing two days ago was quite pleasant, the sun was soft, and it seemed that the vegetation was about to turn green and the spring flowers were in full bloom.

It turned out that the night passed unexpectedly.

The sun seemed to be covered with a 404 character, and it disappeared without a trace.

The sky is full of low and thick gray-yellow turbid clouds, which makes people feel a little depressed.

at the same time.

Inside a cheap hotel on the East Fourth Ring Road of Yanjing.

Meng Liang was standing by the window of the room on the seventh floor in his pajamas, staring blankly at the scene outside:

At this time, it was 7:30 in the morning, and there were bustling pedestrians coming and going on the road, which was very lively.

Someone looked at their mobile phone and walked leisurely.

Someone was nibbling on buns or burritos, and hurried towards the subway entrance.

There is also an old man in a plaid shirt with a shoulder bag, chasing his wig that was blown away by the wind

Meng Liang also saw a young man with an immature appearance. He touched his chin as he walked, as if he was worried that there was still an unshaven beard, and he would look down at the tie on his chest from time to time.

It is clear.

This is a newcomer who has just entered the workplace and has not yet been sharpened. Maybe today is the first day of work.

Seeing this scene that many 'community animals' are so used to that they might want to vomit, a trace of envy flashed in Meng Liang's eyes:

"That's great"

Just when Meng Liang was looking at the scenery outside the window.

drop--

At the door behind him, there was a soft sound of the room card being unlocked.

After a while.

Meng Liang's father, Meng Dongguo, slapped the dust on his body, and walked quickly out of the room, muttering:

"Oh Huo! Fortunately, this Yanjing is an imperial capital, and even a dusty day can make the skin turn over."

Speaking of which, Meng Dongguo put another plastic bag and a cup of soy milk on the small desk in the room, and greeted Meng Liang:

"Son, come to have breakfast, there is no busy (rice) on the side, so I just bought a few steamed buns and buns."

"Here, I'll give you the soy milk. Let's set off as soon as possible after eating. Don't keep those comrades waiting."

Only then did Meng Liang regain his senses.

With a simple oh:

"Oh, here we come."

After a few steps, he walked to the desk, picked up a steamed bun, and set his sights on the lonely soybean milk next to him:

"Father, why did you just buy a cup of soy milk?"

Meng Dongguo had already gnawed on the steamed buns at this time, heard the words and quickly chewed a few times, picked up a bottle of standard mineral water from the corner of the table and took a sip.

After finishing the work, he wiped the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said:

"A cup of soy milk costs 3.5 yuan, which is too expensive to buy."

"Anyway, the hotel provides mineral water, and it's this water. Oh, the shell of the water dew is too soft, and I can't feel it when I pinch it."

Meng Liang glanced at his father.

He didn't correct that the name of the bottle of water was actually Ice Dew, and he didn't say any warm words that if you don't drink soy milk, I won't drink it either.

Instead, he silently picked up the cup of soybean milk and blew on it, then took a sip.

After softening the steamed bun in his mouth, he swallowed it.

Five or six minutes passed.

Meng Liang and his son finished the simple breakfast at the same time.

Meng Dongguo burped, rubbed his stomach a few times, stood up awkwardly, and said to Meng Liang:

"Okay, son, it's almost time, let's go now."

"."

The corner of Meng Liang's mouth twitched a few times when he heard this, but he still didn't speak in the end.

He turned around dully, picked up the coat prepared in advance on the bed, and slowly put it on.

And just when Meng Liang pulled the zipper halfway, Meng Dongguo's soft sigh suddenly sounded behind him:

"Son, are you a little scared?"

Meng Liang's movements froze for a moment.

Then he turned his head in astonishment and looked at his father.

It is clear.

Meng Dongguo hit Meng Liang's heart.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Meng Dongguo took two steps forward, came to Meng Liang's side, patted his son's shoulder vigorously and said:

"The old ancestor said it well, knowing a son is like a father."

"If you talk about the usage of mobile phones and computers, or the difference between the Supreme Court, the Public Procuratorate, and the Law, I will definitely not be able to say anything."

"But you were raised by me, and you haven't even spent a little time away from your mother and me. Haha (a little bit), what do you think I can't see?"

Meng Liang's face twitched.

Then Meng Dongguo threw the mineral water bottle in his hand into the trash can, took out his elderly phone from his pocket, and shook it twice in front of Meng Liang:

"I saw it the day we arrived in Yanjing. There is something wrong with you. You keep saying that you should take a taxi to the Supreme People's Procuratorate today for the sake of auspiciousness."

"It wasn't until I went downstairs that I asked the little girl at the front desk of the hotel to check it out for me, that I discovered something."

"There is no direct subway to the Supreme Inspection near the hotel. If you want to go to the Supreme Inspection, you must transfer to another station. The initial line is only the Batong Line."

"And in the station of the Batong Line, there is the school you went to."

Hearing the second half of Meng Dongguo's sentence.

Meng Liang's chest suddenly rose and fell a few times, his face flushed instantly, and his whole body became hesitant.

In the blind spot of Meng Dongguo's vision, the fingers of Meng Liang's left hand were trembling faintly.

As Meng Dongguo said.

At this time, Meng Liang was indeed a little scared in his heart.

more than a month ago.

When I learned from the female police officer named Wang Li that the Information Security Technology Department wanted him to come forward as the plaintiff to sue the big V who had spread rumors about him.

There are only two thoughts in Meng Liang's mind:

Gratitude and joy.

Grateful because the country finally gave him a chance to be honest.

The joy is because the big V who caused him to be infinitely close to family ruin is finally about to be punished.

Later, under the guidance of Wang Li et al.

Meng Liang also carried out the private prosecution process normally, and brought the big V who had spread rumors about him and the girl who had slandered him to court.

However, as an individual case among many cases, Meng Liang's prosecution is just an introduction to the whole process—or the "mission" of other plaintiffs similar to Meng Liang is the same.

Then with the cooperation of relevant departments.

The Supreme Prosecutor took over these private prosecution files.

And a week ago, in the form of a criminal case, a public prosecution was initiated to the First Criminal Tribunal of the Supreme Court, which is commonly known as the First Criminal Tribunal.

At the same time as the victim of the case.

Meng Liang and others were also invited by Wang Li to Yanjing to attend the trial as witnesses.

no doubt.

This is exciting news.

After all, reaching this step means that the case has reached the final stage of trial.

Those so-called big Vs who slander, spread rumors, and explode others on the Internet are destined to receive the punishment they deserve.

And it won't take long to implement.

However.

After learning that he was going to Yanjing.

An inexplicable fear suddenly appeared in Meng Liang's heart.

because

The 211 university he was admitted to was in Yanjing.

Indeed.

It was the school that made Meng Liang's decision to drop out. Strictly speaking, it had nothing to do with the city of Yanjing.

But what most outsiders, including Meng Dongguo, don't know is.

At that time, the big V obtained the information of his ticket to leave Yanjing through some channels, and posted it directly on the Internet.

Due to the high degree of attention of the incident at that time.

So many people ran outside Yanjing Station on the day Meng Liang left Yanjing, and launched leaflets with Meng Liang's message printed on them.

Even on the bullet train to his hometown, some people found their seats and insulted him.

In the end, Meng Liang could only hide in the dining car in embarrassment, huddled in the corner wearing a mask, and just made it through the journey home with difficulty.

Therefore, Meng Liang has almost no favorable impression of the city of Yanjing.

Of course.

There were also a few passers-by who stood up righteously and refuted those leaflet promoters back then, and there were many girls among them.

So if he just came to Yanjing, a sad place, Meng Liang's mentality would not be too broken.

but the problem is

before leaving home.

Meng Dongguo, who has always been frugal, booked this cheap hotel on the East Fourth Ring Road without discussing with Meng Liang in order to save travel expenses.

At first, Meng Liang didn't pay much attention.

After all, he is not a person who can't bear hardships, and he has suffered a lot in these years.

Besides, no matter how dilapidated the hotel is these days, it is much better than the original dormitory.

So while packing his bags, he also searched for the route to the hotel and the route from the hotel to the Supreme Court.

And at the moment when the result appeared.

He was stunned:

There is no problem with the route from the train station to the hotel, but

There is only one way for the hotel to go to the Supreme Inspection, which is the transfer that Meng Dongguo mentioned.

Among them, one of the stops on the initial line, which is also the transfer point of the line, is impressively——

The 'alma mater' that left Meng Liang with countless nightmares!

be honest.

If it was just the city of Yanjing, Meng Liang would at best have a bad impression of it.

But Meng Liang couldn't let go of this station where the subway stopped.

It was a place name that would trigger nightmares for at least two days when Meng Liangguang heard the name.

Ever since.

Under the blessing of this "alma mater feeling".

The fear in Meng Liang's heart was instantly magnified.

Therefore, from his arrival in Yanjing to the present, he has always carried a very strong sense of disobedience.

This kind of mentality even made his spirit a little trance.

On the one hand, he hopes to see the result of the trial and see those people go to prison.

But on the other hand, he was a little evasive, unwilling to face those memories back then, afraid of returning to that nightmare land.

It is a pain that only those who have experienced it know.

Meng Liang's original idea was not to tell anyone, but to bear the pain silently.

but did not expect

My father, who can't even operate an old man's phone, actually showed a detective's keen judgment in this matter?

Then Meng Dongguo looked at Meng Liang distressedly, and sighed:

"Son, you have such a psychological burden, why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Your father and I don't have much ability, but it's better for two people to fight this kind of thing than one person to hold it in? You."

The result is talking and talking.

Meng Dongguo himself didn't know what to say:

He's just a plumbing repairman who hasn't graduated from high school, so it's really embarrassing to ask him to do psychological counseling.

So the father and son were silent for a while, and finally Meng Dongguo spoke:

"Son, you really don't want to take that subway?"

Meng Liang was silent for a moment, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes.

But in the end.

nodded.

Seeing this, Meng Dongguo's chest rose and fell, took a deep breath, and said decisively:

"Okay, if you don't sit, don't sit, it's nothing, let's take a taxi to the Supreme Court!"

When saying this.

A bitterness flashed in Meng Dongguo's heart—in fact, he hoped to see Meng Liang answer no.

After all, although he has no academic qualifications, he still understands some truths.

He once heard a word from an old Chinese doctor in the small town:

Sadness makes the qi disappear, fright makes the qi disorder, and fear makes the qi go down.

It means that sadness will dissipate people's "Qi", panic will make "Qi" disorder, and fear will make "Qi" sink.

Right now, Meng Liang has all three, which is obviously not a good thing.

The best way to eliminate fear is naturally to face it.

When a person can face up to his trauma calmly, it means that he has let go of that incident.

Therefore, Meng Dongguo hoped that Meng Liang would choose to take the Batong Line, even if he was wearing a mask and hiding behind him, it was better than simply evading.

but

Meng Dongguo was also worried that the twisted melon would not be sweet, and if he persisted, it would cause more serious psychological harm to Meng Liang.

So he could only follow his son's wishes and exchange the subway for a taxi.

ten minutes later.

After tidying up their appearance, the father and son left the hotel.

They took a taxi at the nearest bus stop and drove to Beiheyan Street, where the Supreme Procuratorate was located.

at the same time.

The Supreme Court Headquarters is only 2.1 kilometers away from the Supreme Procuratorate.

Xu Yun, led by a staff member, came to the gate of the highest judicial organ in China.

It's also quite wonderful to say.

Yesterday Yanjing Hospital, today the Supreme Court.

In just two days.

In this way, Xu Yun easily accomplished the 'achievement' that he could not achieve in his previous life.

It's a pity that Halo doesn't have an achievement system like steam, otherwise the level can reward something.

Then Xu Yun dispelled these escaping thoughts, and visited the trial building with great interest.

Students who have been sentenced by the Supreme Court should know it.

There are a total of 31 steps at the main entrance of the trial building. There is a saponin tree growing on the steps—the tree grows under the steps and is located on the north side of the 15th step.

The background of this saponin tree is not ordinary.

It is a national first-class ancient tree numbered 11010100609, which has a history of hundreds of years. It is rumored that it was planted by Ji Xiaolan.

It has witnessed countless gunpowder smoke and beacon fires, heard the gunfire of the invaders and the cry of the Chinese people to save their lives.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Supreme Law.

Due to the shortage of office space, the Supreme Court approved the construction of a new trial building.

And this saponin tree is exactly located within the blue line of the building's construction drawings.

When the decision makers of the project faced this ancient tree, they seemed very difficult:

The age of the saponin tree is very high, if the old tree is moved to another place, improper transplantation may lead to the death of the old tree.

The first-class ancient trees are clearly protected by law, and the court, as a judicial organ, is also the guardian of the spirit of the law.

If the judiciary cannot take the lead in setting an example, how can the judiciary be trusted by the people?

So after discussion.

The final plan is to protect the old trees on site, move the building back 5 meters, and dig holes in the steps.

Ever since.

This ancient tree stands like a sentinel on the 15th step of the Supreme People's Court's trial building.

From then on.

This ancient tree has also become a vivid judicial totem of the Supreme People's Court, and many judges have composed poems for it.

For example, Mr. Ge Xingjun's "Song of the Saponaria Tree" was written about this tree.

Taking photos with the tree has gradually become a reserved item when old judges retire, grassroots judges visit, and guests visit.

Even law school students who went to the Supreme People's Court for internships also used the rallying order of "meeting the saponaria tree and realizing the Supreme Court's dream".

So Xu Yun also took advantage of it and asked the staff to take a picture of him and the saponin tree.

After taking pictures.

The staff led Xu Yun into the building.

Compared with the softness of the soap locust tree outside, the interior of the trial building reveals another two-character style of painting:

solemn.

The building is covered with dark-toned marble tiles, which looks very low-key at first glance.

There are no luxurious decorations of crystals or gemstones on the walls and top, but inside and out it reveals a majestic atmosphere.

If Xiaoxiao's generation came here, I'm afraid the feet would be weak after walking a few steps.

It’s no wonder that the Supreme Court’s trial building is known as the eye of Yanjing’s suppression of evil spirits. It’s really extraordinary in temperament

Then the staff took Xu Yun all the way forward, and soon came to a visitor's room, and said:

"Dr. Xu, Prosecutor Chen is already waiting for you in the room."

Xu Yun thanked her, and knocked on the door after she left.

After a while.

A very steady female voice sounded in the house:

"Please come in."

Xu Yun pushed the door open and entered.

The size of this visitor room is not large, only about ten square meters, with a simple desk and two ergonomic chairs placed inside.

At this time, a 40-year-old lesbian was sitting behind the desk.

The lesbians have short hair and fair skin, looking capable and intellectual.

Seeing Xu Yun enter the room, the other party quickly stood up and greeted him:

"Hello, Dr. Xu, let me introduce myself. I am Prosecutor Chen Ling of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, and I am also the public prosecutor in this trial."

Xu Yun also warmly shook hands with the other party:

"Hello, Inspector Chen."

Wait until the greetings are over.

Chen Ling greeted Xu Yun to take a seat, poured him a cup of tea, and said straight to the point:

"Dr. Xu, we have limited time, so I won't be polite to you. Let me just introduce the situation to you."

Xu Yun hastened to listen attentively.

Then Chen Ling organized some words and said:

"Our trial this time can be said to be the largest trial initiated against cyber violence and rumor-mongering since the founding of the People's Republic of China, so the social aspect has attracted a lot of attention."

"If there is no accident, the peak number of live broadcasts should easily exceed 10 million, and we are also under a lot of pressure."

"At the same time, and more importantly, in the current laws and regulations, there is still controversy about whether the victim should be notified to appear in court."

"So we have had many heated discussions internally about whether we should invite you and other victims."

Xu Yun was taken aback for a moment:

"What else is going on?"

Chen Ling nodded, picked up a book from the table, and explained:

"Currently, there are three main types of criminal trials."

"They are criminal private prosecution cases, public prosecution cases with attached civil lawsuits, and public prosecution cases without criminal attached civil lawsuits."

"The victim of a criminal private prosecution case is generally a private prosecutor, who belongs to the status of the "prosecutor" in the case, and the court will definitely summon him to appear in court, otherwise the trial cannot proceed normally."

"The second is that the victim filed a criminal incidental civil action, and he is the plaintiff in the incidental civil action, so he will also be summoned to appear in court."

"However, according to the third paragraph of Article 187 of the Criminal Law, the people who should be notified by the court did not explain clearly whether the victim or his family members were included."

Xu Yun couldn't help blinking.

In the past period of time, he has learned the difference between private prosecution and public prosecution.

These two concepts are actually very simple and can be understood almost literally.

The so-called private prosecution is to act as the plaintiff to sue others.

As for the public prosecution, it is the prosecution with the procuratorate as the plaintiff.

This smear case involved a large number of people, and it also covered all parts of the country, so the process was going from private prosecution to public prosecution—that's why the victims like Meng Liang were allowed to sue first.

It's just that Xu Yun didn't expect it.

In the rules of public prosecution, are there any disputes about whether to notify the victim or his family?

In fact, what Xu Yun didn't know was.

In criminal cases where no incidental civil action has been initiated, it is actually rare for the victim or family members to be notified to appear in court to participate in the proceedings.

Because this approach is usually of little significance to the judgment result:

Criminal cases are public prosecution cases, and the conviction and sentencing recommendations of the defendant are the independent opinions of the procuratorate based on its authority.

If the victim attends the trial.

Most of the time, they will disagree with the public prosecutor's opinion, and it is quite common that they feel that the crime is light and the sentence is light.

To give a typical example:

Theft of property cases.

If the victim's family members come to participate in the trial, most of them will say that the procuratorate made a mistake in this case.

The undertaker can only explain to him the difference between the two, but in fact, doing this kind of thing has no meaning for the final judgment.

At present, the cases that must be notified are generally only personal injuries, that is, traffic accidents, intentional injuries, etc. - and this is actually the second type of public prosecution cases with civil lawsuits mentioned by Chen Ling.

Although Xu Yun didn't understand the specific situation, he quickly understood Chen Ling's thoughts:

"So Prosecutor Chen, you mean that the Supreme Court is going to use this live broadcast to determine its personality on the controversy over whether the victim should be notified during the prosecution?"

Chen Ling gave him a thumbs up, smiled and nodded:

"Yes, this is also the purpose of our contact with Dr. Xu before the trial."

Only then did Xu Yun understand.

I see

well known.

Domestically or to be precise globally.

On a global scale, almost no country's laws are completely interpreted clearly.

In many cases, different regions have their own interpretations of the same legal terms.

Therefore, at this time, the Supreme Law will come out to determine:

There should be no such-and-such disputes about such-and-such clauses, and its interpretation should be unique.

For example, the Supreme Law of our country.

The Supreme Law selects some files to be made public every year for the purpose of interpretation and characterization.

So it's obvious.

This trial has also become one of the cases of interpretation.

But it's normal to think about it.

After all, the cases interpreted by the Supreme Court are basically typical and well-known cases, and the current trial clearly meets this requirement.

Throughout the past few years in China, there have been almost no court trials that have attracted more attention than the smear case—perhaps only the two cases of Lao Mou and Liu Xin can barely be compared.

Of course.

Now that we have talked about interpretation, here is a rumor for the Supreme Court by the way.

There was a topic on the hot search before, and many people must have the impression.

The content of the topic was that the first-instance verdict of a lesbian case was selected as one of the top 100 documents in the country, so many people criticized the Supreme Court for being black.

But actually.

This matter is somewhat similar to the academician of Baijiu back then:

They belong to the candidates pushed up by the locality - any province has this power, and the specific nominations are decided locally.

At that time, Hunan and Chu Province selected fifteen documents to be shortlisted for this selection, and a certain Lala was one of them.

But after it was shortlisted, it was not officially selected by the Supreme Court.

As for the certain line guided by the Supreme Law, it is another matter, so I won’t go into details here.

In general.

The Supreme Law is still standing upright.

Then Xu Yun pulled his mind back to reality, thought for a while, and asked Chen Ling:

"Prosecutor Chen, I don't know what the interpretation of the victim's presence in this trial is"

Chen Ling raised her eyelids and glanced at him, then pointed to another book on the table:

"According to Article 106 of the Criminal Procedure Law, parties refer to victims, private prosecutors, criminal suspects, defendants, plaintiffs and defendants in incidental civil proceedings."

"So strictly speaking, the parties to the trial notice should not only refer to the defendant, but should also include the victim—even if it is a public prosecution."

"Nowadays, many people have lost property due to fraud, but they have only received the notice of the victim's rights and obligations from the procuratorate, and the rest don't even know the verdict. They don't even know whether the trial will be held."

"There are still many similar situations, so after discussions above, we decided to explain this through this trial."

"But in this way."

"Dr. Xu, you may have to bear a little more pressure."
