What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 219: Xiao Wen, you can share your opinions, but is there really a need to go this far?



In his office, Wen Weilin looked at the information on his phone with a face that had already turned extremely pale. He had indeed anticipated that he would be exposed sooner or later, but he hadn't expected it to happen so soon.

Of course, thanks to the state's severe crackdown on doxxing, for the time being, no one had linked his personal name and contact information directly to him.

It might also be due to his status that they chose not to expose him directly.

After all, if a judge's personal information was dug up and then placed on the internet so directly, the situation would be quite different.

What status does a judge have? They are the practitioners and defenders of the law. Now, if even judges encounter such things, then it won't just be Wen Weilin facing the backlash.

This has nothing to do with whether the leadership looks down on him after his identity is exposed; it's solely because he is a judge.

This is the support that comes with the position; with that status, you can't treat him the way you would an ordinary person; otherwise, it will be seen as a challenge to the entire judicial system!

However, even though his personal information wasn't directly revealed, Wen Weilin's veins still throbbed as he read the message on his phone.

"According to reliable sources, the 'Brother Wen Tea Boiled with Alcohol' who previously bet with Lawyer Tang and revealed those thirty-one cases online, is currently believed to be a judge from Lincheng City, Changlu County. As for which court he's in and what his name is, that's still unclear."

"It seems that this brother has probably been dissatisfied with some unjust rulings over the years but was powerless to do anything about it, so he took this opportunity to involve Lawyer Tang."

"This is a true good judge!"

This message was posted online by a prominent blogger, and on the surface, it seemed without issues—firstly, I didn't expose your identity, and secondly, I'm praising you all through the post.

What's wrong? When is it a problem to praise a judge for being righteous?

But to Wen Weilin, these words were utterly condemnable!

A criminal judgment goes through investigation, review and indictment, to first and second instance judgments, passing through numerous procedural steps in the process.

And now you're saying that I've long been dissatisfied with these "unjust rulings" but powerless to do anything... who are you implying that at?

Moreover, although the other party may have avoided stating my identity for various reasons, Changlu County Court only has so many judges on staff, a mere eighteen; it would only take minutes to find out!

However, seeing the IP address's location, Wen Weilin shook his head; the person's real location was overseas, no wonder they dared to leak the information so directly.

Now that the netizens know, it's likely that the leadership is aware as well...

So, what should I do?

As he was thinking, the door to his office was pushed open, and the Criminal Court's presiding judge came in. Looking at Wen Weilin, he still shook his head and said, "Young man..."

After sighing, he added, "Xiao Wen, the leaders want you to go over. You know, even if you have ideas, you must follow the rules. Anyway, I won't say much; just go over now."

Seeing the presiding judge's expression, Wen Weilin felt a sinking feeling in his heart. But with things having reached this point, there was nothing to be done. He would just have to do what needed doing.

He rose from his seat and headed straight to the leaders' office. Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire

Soon after arriving and knocking on the door to enter, the leader was still cordial, looking at Wen Weilin and saying, "Xiao Wen is here. Come, come, take a seat. Ah, you've really done a big thing, huh."

"Xiao Wen, that 'Wen Tea Boiled with Alcohol' online, that's you, right?"

Wen Weilin hurriedly said, "Yes, it's me, I..."

Before he could continue, the leader waved his hand, "No problem, no problem. If I remember correctly, you were granted your position two years ago, making you the youngest judge in our court."

"It's normal for us legal scholars to have opinions on certain judgments, but Xiao Wen, you can raise your concerns. We can have internal reviews within our system; there really was no need to make such a big scene, you know."

"Alright, there's nothing else. You can go back now."

Wen Weilin wanted to explain further, but seeing that the leader had already started to get busy again, he could only stand up and leave.

Even though he was a young judge, he had a certain amount of experience. The leader spoke little and with a friendly demeanor, which did not mean this matter could be let go so easily. On the contrary, if the leader had shown anger, that would have indicated that the matter wasn't serious.

It was, after all, about thirty-one cases. Under normal circumstances, that wouldn't mean much, as the High Court received countless petitions every day.

But this time was different. Tang Fangjing first established one case, and due to that, the High Court even issued special meeting records, solidly locking down the crime committed by the village committee.

Then similar cases were presented, and even if the High Court didn't want to deal with it, they still had to give a reasonable explanation, otherwise, given Tang Fangjing's temperament, he would surely take it to the Supreme Court.

And indeed, if it got to that point, who knows what the other side might do.

So now, the leaders are probably waiting for a response from the High Court. If the High Court really sends those cases back, there will certainly be no good outcome for me.

After all, the online excitement is built on the premise that those thirty-one cases are all miscarriages of justice. If that's not the case, Lincheng will naturally be calm and undisturbed.

So now, what should I do?

With this incident, it's foreseeable that, even if the High Court suppresses it, I will no longer be well-regarded by people within my own court.
