Chapter 400 I am a lawyer Hu Zhiqiang
Hongfujin Kindergarten is a place full of childlike fun. The sun shines softly in the yard, slides and swings stand quietly in the light and shadow, and colorful wall paintings and cheerful laughter are intertwined around, outlining the innocent little world of children.
Hu Zhiqiang was wearing a neat black suit, his posture was upright, and his leather shoes made crisp sounds as they stepped on the ground.
His appearance was like an alien who broke into a fairy tale world, and was out of tune with the childish atmosphere around him.
In order to fulfill his uncle's request, he walked steadily towards the infirmary, his eyes revealing the firmness and coldness unique to a professional lawyer.
As we entered the infirmary, the smell of disinfectant hit us. A middle-aged man was bending over, concentrating on giving a student an IV, his movements were gentle, and he kept soothing her with his mouth.
Hu Zhiqiang cleared his throat slightly and asked politely, "Excuse me, are you Doctor Xiao Hongliang?"
Doctor Xiao raised his head upon hearing the voice, pushed up his glasses, nodded and said, "It's me, who are you?"
Hu Zhiqiang took out a business card from his suit pocket and handed it over, saying in a steady tone, "I am lawyer Hu Zhiqiang, Mr. Pang's client. I came here to learn about the beating incident yesterday. You were there, right?"
Xiao Hongliang's expression suddenly became somewhat unnatural, his eyes dodged, and he stammered, "Well...I...well, oh, it's not that I don't want to testify, it's just that we didn't see the fight, and Teacher Pang had already fallen to the ground."
Hu Zhiqiang's eyes were sharp, but he didn't force anyone to do anything. He continued to ask, "Do you know what caused the conflict?"
Xiao Hongliang sighed and said bitterly: "At first, it was a few children from the senior class who hurriedly helped Mr. Pang's nephew Pang Hu to come over to treat his arm.
I saw that the child just had a dislocated arm, so I wanted to deal with it immediately. But Pang Hu was very stubborn and refused to let me touch him.
I had no choice but to call Teacher Pang to come and help. But when she arrived, she was extremely emotional and yelled, saying that her arm was broken by a new kid named Jiang Shuo.
As a result, Teacher Pang didn't say a word. When he saw Jiang Shuo, he went up and slapped him, making the child's face red and swollen instantly.
I was shocked at the time. Teacher Lin was afraid of taking responsibility, so he called his father. His father came over and took the child away.
I'm not sure how Mr. Pang fell. Mr. Lin was there at the time. You might as well ask Mr. Lin."
After listening to this, Hu Zhiqiang nodded slightly and turned to walk towards the door. As soon as he reached the door, he stopped, turned sideways, looked at Doctor Xiao behind him with cold eyes and said:
"You'd better think it over before you testify in court, or you may end up in jail."
Xiao Hongliang's face turned pale in an instant, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He was at a loss as to what to do and could only watch Hu Zhiqiang walk towards the teaching building at great strides.
Hu Zhiqiang greeted the children he met along the way and asked about Teacher Lin's office.
An enthusiastic little kid with a lovely smile on his face brought Hu Zhiqiang to the door of Lin Yue's office.
Then he said politely: "Uncle Lin's office is right here, please go in! Bye"
The childish voice made Hu Zhiqiang's stern face show a rare hint of tenderness, which almost melted his heart.
After watching the child leave, Hu Zhiqiang straightened his suit and knocked on the door like a gentleman. A pleasant voice responded from inside: "Come in."
He pushed open the door and walked into the office, only to see a beautiful teacher in a pink dress standing in front of her desk, which was piled with lesson plans and colored paintbrushes. She was making final preparations for teaching the children.
Hu Zhiqiang asked politely, "Excuse me, are you Teacher Lin Yue?"
When Lin Yue saw the person coming, she first showed a professional smile. When she heard that he was looking for her, a trace of shock flashed across her face and she asked, "Who are you?"
Hu Zhiqiang handed over his business card again and said politely, "I am Mr. Pang's client, Hu Zhiqiang, lawyer."
Lin Yue gestured for Hu Zhiqiang to sit down at the desk. She asked directly, "What do you want to know?"
Hu Zhiqiang looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "This is what happened."
Lin Yue raised her hand to smooth the hair around her ears and recalled, "Actually, I don't quite know what happened. When I learned about the incident, Pang Hu was already in the infirmary.
They said Pang Hu was beaten by Jiang Shuo, but when I found Jiang Shuo, he was writing quietly in the classroom.
When I brought Jiang Shuo to the infirmary, Teacher Pang was very uncalm and directly hit Jiang Shuo.
I felt extremely guilty at the time and was unable to explain to the child, so I could only call his brother.
But when his brother came to the infirmary, he was really angry and approached Teacher Pang to confront him.
But I really didn’t see him do it, and Teacher Pang fell out. You can ask Dr. Xiao about this, I really didn’t see him do it.”
Hu Zhiqiang nodded slightly, his eyes as cold as ice as frost, and said: "I will notify you to testify in court soon, you'd better think it over before you speak.
Perjury will also lead to corresponding legal responsibilities, and your career will be bumpy in the future." After saying that, he stood up and strode out of the office.
Lin Yue stood there, feeling uneasy, and looked helplessly at Hu Zhiqiang's back which was getting farther and farther away and finally disappeared in the long corridor.
Hu Zhiqiang walked out of Teacher Lin's office, emitting a chilling aura, like the ghost of death. He walked around the campus with hurried but steady and powerful steps.
With a determined look and a clear goal, he walked straight towards the monitoring room. The sunlight shone on his straight suit, but failed to dispel the cold aura on him.
Soon, they arrived at the door of the monitoring room. Through the half-open door, they could see two security guards chatting leisurely, laughing from time to time.
Out of politeness, he coughed lightly at the door. The sound was not loud, but it was like an abrupt note, instantly breaking the relaxed atmosphere in the room. Then, he walked in steadily.
The security guards frowned when they saw the man in a neat suit with a stern look. One of the older security guards asked warily, "What do you do?"
Hu Zhiqiang had a blank expression on his face. He quickly took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over. His tone was calm but carried an unquestionable dignity:
"I am Hu Zhiqiang, the lawyer who is investigating and collecting evidence for the beating of Teacher Pang yesterday. I am also Teacher Pang's client. I would like to trouble you two to cooperate and retrieve the surveillance footage from the infirmary yesterday."
The two security guards looked at each other, looking embarrassed. The younger one scratched his head and said, "Wait a minute, I'll call the principal."
Just as he finished his words, a burst of hurried footsteps came from a distance. It turned out to be Principal Chen.
When Chen Bingkun learned that Hu Zhiqiang had arrived at the monitoring room, he was extremely anxious and did not dare to delay at all. He trotted straight to the monitoring room.
At this moment, he was breathing heavily, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, but he forced a smile on his face.
Chen Bingkun walked into the monitoring room, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then raised his voice and said, "Do as Lawyer Hu says."
The two security guards nodded quickly and started to work in front of the monitoring equipment. Their fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard and the images on the screen kept flashing and switching.
Time passed by minute by minute, and every second seemed to be infinitely stretched. Hu Zhiqiang stood aside, his eyes fixed on the screen, not missing any details, his eyes revealing concentration and persistence.
Finally, when the scene of yesterday's infirmary appeared on the screen, a barely perceptible relaxation appeared on his tense face.
After getting the first-hand video footage, he put away his serious expression, bowed slightly, and said politely: "Thank you for your cooperation." After that, he turned around and left the monitoring room with steady steps.
His back was stretched very long under the light of the corridor, and this video recording may become the key to solving the mystery of this incident.
The light of dawn was like a veil, gently falling on every corner of the city. In the gym at Mu Xiaoji's home, Mu Xiaoji and Jiang Shuo were immersed in their respective exercises.
Mu Xiaoji was wearing professional fitness clothes. His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, which kept sliding down his cheeks and wetting the cushion under him.
He held the barbell steadily with both hands. Every time he exerted force, the muscles in his arms bulged high, showing a vigorous sense of strength.
His eyes were fixed on the barbell, concentrating on feeling the stretching and contraction of his muscles with every movement, and immersed in his own training rhythm.
Jiang Shuo had his eyes closed, standing firmly on one foot on a lever like a pine tree.
His posture was upright, his breathing was even and steady, and his whole body seemed to emanate a pure and restrained power.
In this quiet space, he seemed to be integrated with everything around him, engaging in a deep self-cultivation.
At this moment, a sudden and urgent doorbell rang, breaking the silence in the gym.
Mu Huiying was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, with soup dripping from the spoon in her hand.
When she heard the doorbell, she was slightly startled, put down the spoon, quickly took off her apron, wiped the water stains on her hands, and hurried to the door.
After opening the door, the dazzling morning light made her squint subconsciously. When she saw two uniformed law enforcement officers standing outside the door, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.
Before she could ask, one of the law enforcement officers said in a serious and businesslike tone: "Hello, is this Mr. Mu Xiaoji's residence?"
Mu Huiying nodded subconsciously, her face full of shock, and asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Yes, what happened?"
Another law enforcement officer took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Mu Huiying, his tone calm but revealing unquestionable majesty:
"This is a forensic summons issued by the court in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Civil Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China.
Please inform Mr. Mu Xiaoji that he must go to the designated court to accept questioning and related investigation procedures within the time specified in the subpoena. This is his legal obligation as a person related to the case. "
Mu Huiying took the subpoena with trembling hands. She glanced at the words on it and felt dizzy.
Her lips trembled slightly, and she wanted to say something, but was speechless for a moment. Countless thoughts suddenly emerged in her mind, and her heart was full of worry and anxiety.
She subconsciously looked back in the direction of the gym, where Mu Xiaoji was still concentrating on exercising, completely unaware of the sudden change.
