After Turning Around, I Exploded in the Legal Circle

Ten years in Huating have been turbulent, with behind-the-scenes capital always omnipresent. Beneath the calm surface, undercurrents always churn; lights flicker on and off, and human affairs ebb a...

Chapter 278 The Seventh Court 4

Qin Suisui stared into Pang Yi's eyes and said.

"The next day, before the stock market even opened, most domestic financial media outlets began reposting the false reports from this new media outlet in Macau."

"Most importantly, the leading financial media outlets were your guests the night before!"

At this moment, Pang Yi had long lost his composure, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

He couldn't understand where Qin Suisui got the information about such a secret matter after so many days.

Huo Jiakai, sitting in the courtroom, was even more shocked. He still didn't understand what was going on. It turned out that these people had been prepared all along, just to short his shares.

Qin Suihui didn't allow Pang Yi time to think it over, and continued to press him for answers.

"Defendant Pang Yi, please explain in detail your relationship with Fei Yuqing of Far East Shipping, your relationship with Aocheng New Media Information, and your relationship with the heads of Weicheng Morning, Binhe Finance, and Nanyuan Financial."

Just as Pang Yi was about to speak, she added another sentence.

"Defendant Pang Yi, you'd better think carefully before you try to explain yourself. After you finish speaking, can you make it all believable?"

"Your Honor, my questioning is finished!"

Qin Suisui bowed to the front of the courtroom, then turned and walked back to her seat.

"Defendant Pang Yi, please answer the plaintiff's lawyer's questions carefully!"

Sitting in the courtyard, Dean Wang was amazed and whispered to Mu Kefei.

"That's amazing! How did this girl manage to gather such detailed information?"

"She shouldn't be a lawyer at a law firm; she should belong to our prosecutor's office!"

Mukfei glanced at him sideways.

"Director Wang, you're overthinking things!"

"What they earn in a day is equivalent to our monthly salary. How can our procuratorate tolerate such a big shot?"

Upon hearing this, Dean Wang was not annoyed and nodded in agreement with a smile.

"That's true!"

It was only at this moment that Pang Yi finally understood why Qin Suisui, at such a young age, had been able to reach her current position in a foreign law firm.

Strong logic, meticulous thinking, and every sentence contains a trap.

Just like now, Qin Suisui's three consecutive questions made his forehead bead with sweat.

He raised his hand to wipe it and coughed lightly.

"Fei Yuqing and I have been friends for many years. It's not illegal for us to meet occasionally!"

"Furthermore, it's normal for our industry to have good relationships with the media, since we need more media information to make informed decisions!"

"What do you say, Lawyer Qin?"

Pang Yi was, after all, a lawyer, and every word he said was spoken with conviction. Even Judge Lou couldn't help but follow his gaze to look at Qin Suisui.

"Friends? Defendant Pang Yi, you say you and Fei Yuqing are friends?"

"Me~"

Faced with Qin Suisui's question, Pang Yi felt a sense of unease, sensing something was amiss, yet he had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer.

"Yes, we're friends!"

Qin Suisui then asked, "Are you also on friendly terms with those new media outlets?"

"yes!"

Pang Yi couldn't tell whether Qin Suisui's questions were true or false, so he could only answer according to her rhythm.

Qin Suisui looked up at him: "So what is your relationship with Liu Shanzhong of Macau New Media?"

"Liu Shanzhong? Our relationship is so-so!"

Although Pang Yi was puzzled, he still answered carefully.

"So your relationship with Raymond Lam from Macau must be pretty good!"

After rambling on for a while, Qin Suisui finally dropped this bombshell that made Pang Yi feel like he was facing a formidable enemy.

"Wha...what? What relationship with Raymond Lam?"

Pang Yi almost fainted from a heart palpitation when Qin Suisui asked him about Raymond Lam in Macau.

"I don't know Raymond Lam!"

"Don't you recognize me?"

Qin Suisui raised her eyebrows and smiled calmly.

"Defendant Pang Yi, you just said that you are friends with several other new media information companies. What? Are you going to back out now?"

"No, I was referring to several new media outlets, not Lin Feng."

"I know Raymond Lam, but I don't know him personally!"

Pang Yi became wary. He had a vague suspicion in his mind, but dared not ask any further questions.

"You know Lin Feng, but don't know the other person?"

Qin Suisui sneered and looked at Yue Hongxin.

Yue Hongxin quickly picked up the documents on the table and handed them to her.

Qin Suisui received the documents handed to her by Assistant Yue, glanced at them, and then waved the documents in her hand.

“Defendant Pang Yi, the information I have here is surveillance footage of your meetings with Liu Shanzhong, the head of Aocheng New Media Information, a total of twelve times, and Lin Feng was present on three of those occasions!”

She smiled as she watched Pang Yi's increasingly pale face, then turned to face Judge Lou.

"Your Honor, Lin Feng of Aocheng holds 62% of the shares in Aocheng New Media Information, making him the largest shareholder of the new media!"

"Your Honor, this is public surveillance video footage of Pang Yi and Liu Shanzhong, the head of Aocheng New Media Information, meeting over the past eight months. Please review it!"

Judge Lou, with a solemn expression, gestured to the guards on one side of the corridor.

The bailiff walked up to Qin Suisui, took the documents with both hands, and handed them to Judge Lou.

When Qin Suisui saw Judge Lou begin to look through the documents, she turned to look at Pang Yi. The faint smile on her face was particularly irritating to Pang Yi.

Pang Yi finally understood the reason for his vague unease when the other party asked the question earlier; it turned out that they were waiting for him here.
