Chapter 115 - Judges

After waiting for another three days, Tao Chu Liang did not participate in this court appearance. Only Xiang Chen Xi and the attorney were present.

Half of Tao Jian Xin's hair was already white, and the wrinkles on his face had increased by a lot, compared to before. His meek agreement to the judge seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

Xiang Chen Xi looked at this person who once shook the world, yet committed countless of evil deeds, and a taunting smile appeared on his face. He would never be soft-hearted like Tao Chu Liang, nor would he let anyone who threatened him continue to have the chance to grow stronger.

He looked at Tao Jian Xin, and then read out Tao Chu Liang's decision.

"The plaintiff thinks that although the crime committed by the accused Tao Jian Xin is serious, the evidence is conclusive. In accordance with the relevant provisions of the Criminal Law of our country, the plaintiff requires that all the liquid assets of the defendant be sold and placed in the company of his embezzlement as compensation, and that 90 percent of his real estate be auctioned off, and the rest be used as the property of his children. "

Tao Jian Xin lifted his head, his eyes filled with suspicion. He didn't know why Tao Chu Liang had done this, he wanted to say something, but seeing that Xiang Chen Xi had finished reading the written decision, he directly sat down on the chair. Then, he closed his eyes and didn't take another look at the court.

He then silently shut his mouth. At this moment, he originally had nothing left to say.

Xiang Chen Xi naturally understood that every single person had to be responsible for their own actions, let alone being responsible for the law. Thinking back to how glorious Tao Jian Xin was in the past, and how his reputation was based on those dishonest schemes, so, the day the matter was exposed, he had already lost everything.

Liu Ling was also brought up, they currently did not have the money to hire a lawyer to attend the trial, so very quickly, the trial ended.

On the way back, Xiang Chen Xi walked in front by himself. He did not raise his head, but only calmly looked at the stones on the ground, and occasionally kicked one or two of them to take a look. When he looked up, he saw a man in a suit and leather shoes standing in front of him. Although he didn't know this person, he must have seen him somewhere before.

The man smiled as if he could tell that the man did not know him.

"What's wrong, Mr. Xiang doesn't recognize me?"

The man smiled slightly and suddenly extended his right hand. He knocked on the air in front of Xiang Chen Xi, and his action looked extremely similar to the judge who had been sitting on the stage for the past few days. This time, Xiang Chen Xi realised that the seemingly refined and refined person in front of him was the judge who handled the case for him.

"Your Honor, I recognize you." Xiang Chen Xi extended his right hand out to shake hands with the judge, then asked: "May I know why Your Honor is looking for me?"

The judge revealed a bashful smile, and said: "I had carefully looked at the evidence you had placed on the wall earlier, and I have a person that I really want to see. I don't know if Mr. Xiang has the time to go with me, but I don't know if you are willing to reveal this person's secrets, after all, asking this question is a little abrupt."

Xiang Chen Xi was startled, he wondered who this judge said he was going to meet, and who would specifically ask this judge to meet him. He said, "Your Honor, please say that if you can be of any help, we will do our best to help you.

The judge nodded his head, the slightly embarrassed expression on his face finally dispersed with Xiang Chen Xi's words.

"Then Mr. Xiang, I would like to ask if you have any impression of the witness taking person that you saw before?"

Xiang Chen Xi nodded, he knew that the person the judge was referring to should be the newspaper reporter, because of the persecution of Tao Jian Xin's family, he had lost his family, and was still living in the cheapest and most run-down building in the suburbs. At that time, although Tao Chu Liang and Sheng Jue had been the ones to take the evidence, Xiang Chen Xi had still carefully studied this person. He discovered that this person actually had extremely strong skills and methods of taking evidence, so he had a special interest in him.

"Then come with me." Xiang Chen Xi got on the car, and invited the judge to sit with him on the car. The judge was startled, but he still shook his head with a smile, and then let go of the car key in his hand and sat in Xiang Chen Xi's car. Xiang Chen Xi's car started up very quickly, and the judge drove the car all the way to the newspaper reporter's house.

It was a home, but it didn't seem like it. The moss had long been left on the roof of that run-down house in the cold, and there was a plug in the corridor, connected to a wiring board, that led to the reporter's house through a door that could fit a ping pong ball.

"Is there anyone here?"

Xiang Chen Xi lightly knocked on the door. He knew that the reporter from the tabloid had probably gone out to do something. After all, a man shouldn't sit in his room and wait to starve to death.

Surprisingly, this person was sitting on the table, recording the notes he had just made with his hand.

He heard Xiang Chen Xi's voice and walked out to open the door. Outside the door, he saw two elegant and refined people, he looked at them warily, and realised that the two did not look like people sent by Tao Jian Xin, "Who are you, do you have any business with me?"

Xiang Chen Xi nodded and suddenly walked forward.

"Let me tell you one thing, now that Tao Jian Xin is dead, because all of the evidence you provided was extremely powerful, no matter how hard Tao Jian Xin tried to defend himself, no matter how powerful his lawyers were, he still had no chance of winning against us. Right now, he has been sentenced to death in prison for life, and especially behind him, there is a statement that the punishment is not allowed."

The reporter was suddenly stunned. He had not expected that the man who had driven here that day, the girl who had followed beside him, had really helped him fulfill this seemingly impossible wish.

"I really did it."

He looked at his hands, and for a moment his eyes filled with tears. He didn't know how to express his inner sorrow and joy. But he knew one thing, that was, everything he did were not in vain. That bastard, Tao Jian Xin, no longer had the ability to stir up trouble.

"Hello, I'm the judge presiding over this case." The judge extended his hand out towards the reporter. Only Xiang Chen Xi could see that his hand was trembling non-stop.

"Your Honor." The reporter quickly lowered his head and used the back of his hand to quickly wipe away the tears at the corner of his eyes.

"Do you know? Your decision not only helped me get out of my predicament, out of the shadows in my heart, but also helped those who had also been hurt by Tao Jian Xin to find a new direction.
