What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 152: The Professional Significance of Being a Lawyer



"Wait, wait, wait, what weather, what pregnant woman, comrade, you've got it all wrong, my wife is just a housewife, she stays at home taking care of the children every day, it's impossible for her to commit a crime."

"Moreover, you can ask around, my wife always has a good temper, she never argues with anyone. Could there be some mistake? It's impossible!" Li Jianbin was already anxious as he shouted.

He simply didn't believe his wife could do anything illegal or criminal, a housewife who stayed home to take care of the children every day couldn't possibly do anything.

His voice was a bit loud, and the relatives inside the house heard him, they all came to the door to ask what was happening.

"What's going on, Jianbin, don't yell, tell us what's happened slowly." A relative said but just as he finished speaking, he saw two policemen standing at the door.

The child from the house also came out, looking at the group of adults by the door, not understanding what was going on.

Li Jianbin said, "These two policemen came to our house, then they just opened their mouths and said Jiayu had committed some crime, that they needed to carry out a criminal summons against her. They won't explain anything, just that they need to take her away."

"Isn't that a joke? Jiayu is a housewife, what crime could she possibly commit!"

The relatives on the side didn't speak, after all, those were policemen.

The lead old policeman looked at Yuan Jiayu and said, "Yuan Jiayu, we are now giving you the first warning, immediately come back with us for an investigation, understand?"

During the summons, explanations can be offered, or not, just as notifying family members, it's simply to tell you that your relative has been summoned, letting you know about it.

But Yuan Jiayu was still silent, Li Jianbin became anxious, "Jiayu, speak up, what on earth is going on? Don't be afraid, I don't believe they can arrest you for no reason!"

The lead old policeman spoke again, "Yuan Jiayu, this is the second warning, please cooperate with our work, otherwise we will have to take compulsory measures!"

Finally, Yuan Jiayu spoke, "I, I just said a few words..."

"Those weren't just a few words, you posted more than twenty comments cursing at the other party, and you even made a special phone call to curse them out. Do you think your behavior is okay?" said another policeman.

What? Li Jianbin, who was anxious on the spot, was stunned. His wife was cursing people online and even made phone calls to curse others?

But he quickly said, "But, wait, is cursing someone online against the law now?"

"The other party has filed a criminal complaint, and the court has already filed the case. The situation with your wife is very serious, so it necessitates the involvement of the public security organs for investigation. The internet is not a lawless place!"

Having said that, seeing that Yuan Jiayu was still not moving, the old policeman was about to go forward when he saw people around him taking out their phones to record, hesitated for a moment, and then went over to the side to pick up the police communicator to call in.

The other policeman said, "You can record, but you cannot post it online out of context. If you do, that would also be illegal and even criminal, understand?"

At this moment, Li Jianbin was discussing with Yuan Jiayu, and the situation was clear to him, but it was precisely because he knew the situation that he felt puzzled.

There are so many people cursing online every day, why is it that just because his wife said a few words, she could go to jail?

This isn't fair, why her!

Just then, the elevator doors opened, and a policewoman walked in. The old policeman pointed at Yuan Jiayu and said, "It's her, take her away."

Immediately, the policewoman stepped forward and grabbed Yuan Jiayu's arm, saying, "Please cooperate with our work, if you resist, I will have to apply restraints."

Facing this situation, Li Jianbin and several relatives were stunned, or rather, they had never experienced anything like this before. They thought the police wouldn't dare to use force since they had not acted until then.

There's no helping it, policemen nowadays have a friendly image, you go to them when you have a problem, after all, the ones they usually interact with are the community patrol officers resolving trivial family disputes.

So, the "violent enforcer" aspect of the police has been downplayed, but that doesn't mean they won't act if you refuse to go; otherwise, how would they make arrests?

Yuan Jiayu instinctively began to resist, shouting, "Jianbin, Jianbin!"

The policewoman quickly constrained her arms behind her back with a control hold, and had already pulled out the handcuffs.

Unless there's no other option, compulsory measures like handcuffs are not typically used for a summons.

But if you simply won't cooperate no matter what is said, then sorry, handcuffs it is.

Seeing this, Li Jianbin also panicked, moving forward to grab the policewoman's arm to say something, but the old policeman immediately charged over and grabbed him!

"Stop it right there, I'm warning you now, if you dare to make a move, you could be suspected of obstructing official duties or assaulting a police officer, and then you would also have to go in, do you hear me clearly!" yelled the old policeman.
Your journey continues on empire

It was the festive season, and he truly didn't want to escalate the situation. There had recently been an incident in Magic City where a policeman was enforcing the law and was slapped by a man.

That slap landed the man a ten-month prison sentence.

Yuan Jiayu, by this point, had been handcuffed, with tears all over her face. So much time had passed that she had forgotten about the incident. She never thought her online outburst from a few months back could lead to jail time.

At that time, she just felt outraged, and firing a pregnant woman spurred her to curse. Who could have imagined that someone would take it so seriously?

One hundred twenty-three people, one hundred twenty-three criminal complaints, including those from large cities like Magic City as well as some from small county towns.
