Chapter 627: A Trap
Perhaps because half a month had passed since the incident broke out, the internet trolls who used extreme remarks to guide public opinion withdrew from the square, and the atmosphere in the comment section became much more rational.
"I've been eating melons for half a month, but I haven't taken a side yet. I think the fundamental reason is still the legal provisions. Given that Fqy himself suffers from mental illness, anyone would apply for a diagnosis and try it. So it's better to abolish this loophole so that no one can exploit it in the future."
"I support abolishing the law that states that people with mental illness who injure others are not criminally liable. Everyone is equal, and even those with mental illness who injure others must be held accountable!"
"Let me give you a conspiracy theory. I guess Fu Zheng originally wanted to use money to pave the way, but the matter became a big deal. Professional doctors also conducted an analysis. There were too many people supporting him, and he was afraid of a rebellious mentality. Money couldn't pave the way, so he had to compromise."
"I told you to wait for the results. As soon as I saw Fu Zheng apply for a forensic appraisal, and the results weren't out yet, a bunch of people swore it was definitely F and that he wouldn't be held legally responsible. They rushed forward, howling. Now that the results are out, where have those clowns gone?"
"Is this... a failure in trying to get through the backdoor?"
"The person above, is it possible that they didn't intend to use a backdoor at all and were just going through the application process? F herself suffers from a mental illness, and without the evaluation results, no one knows whether she has a mental illness or not."
"You are too naive. You think capitalists are really kind."
"Anyway, he's kinder than you. Fu Zheng just donated hundreds of millions a while ago, and the Fu Group has always donated to charity projects. Unlike you, who only knows how to type on the keyboard online."
"As I said, don't speculate before the results are out. Thumbs up to the Judicial Appraisal Committee."
"I think we still need netizens' supervision. The one person who committed the crime, whose family is rich and powerful, was given a mental illness certificate and is not criminally responsible. There's no heat, and the victim can only swallow his anger."
"We hope that the judicial organs can handle such cases fairly and uphold the seriousness and fairness of the law."
“…”
The series of public revelations triggered by Fu Qingyue's knife-wielding attack came to an end after the appraisal results came out. The case began to proceed and the heat gradually subsided.
In the hotel room, Fu Zheng sat on the sofa. On the clean and transparent glass coffee table in front of him was a document, which was the appraisal result.
He personally went to the appraisal center to pick up this document in the morning.
When the committee director saw him, he invited him to his office.
The assistant then served hot tea.
Fu Zheng looked at the curl of steam rising above the teacup and said calmly, "The identification results are out. I wonder why Director Liu asked me to come here?"
But then the director asked, "Does this appraisal result meet Mr. Fu's expectations?"
"The reason we applied for an appraisal is because we don't know the outcome. I will accept it in full regardless of the outcome," Fu Zheng replied.
The director sighed, "I think the results of this appraisal will calm down a lot of public opinion, but Mr. Fu doesn't know that the issuance of this result was not smooth."
"How do you say that?"
"During the evaluation process, the determination of the suspect's mental illness went smoothly. However, there was a huge disagreement among the evaluation team members on whether the suspect had a mental illness. Some insisted that the suspect was in a state of mental illness, and the argument became heated."
"Then, how was it solved?" Fu Zheng asked.
"The matter was at a stalemate until someone anonymously reported the appraisal member for bribery. A private investigation revealed a large amount of money had been transferred from overseas to a bank account in his father's name, the source of which was unknown."
“…”
"This person has now been secretly detained. The matter has been pressed, and the identification process has gone smoothly." The director changed the subject and looked at Fu Zheng. "I wonder what Mr. Fu thinks?"
"Director Liu suspects that I was the one who bribed this appraisal member?" Fu Zheng looked at Director Liu calmly, his eyes firm, without the slightest evasion.
Director Liu stared at his expression seriously, but did not catch any trace of guilt or anxiety. He was so calm, so calm that Director Liu even suspected that he had wronged Fu Zheng.
"That's not what I meant." Director Liu raised an eyebrow and smiled, "I'm just a little curious. Besides Mr. Fu, who else would want the suspect to go unpunished?"
"No matter who it is, it's not me. The fairness of the judiciary is unquestionable, and Fu will never use the power in his hands to interfere."
Director Liu looked at Fu Zheng's righteous expression and thought to himself that Fu Zheng was worthy of being one of the representatives of young entrepreneurs. His psychological quality was indeed not something that ordinary people could achieve.
"I know that whoever did this will never admit it."
"Director Liu, think about it the other way around. Everyone knows that I, as the suspect's family member, applied for the identification. If there's any evidence of bribery, I'll be the first person to be linked to. Isn't that too obvious?"
"It's hard to say. What if Mr. Fu is really brave and wants to gamble that others won't notice?"
"I wouldn't bet on something too risky. Public opinion is swirling right now. If that member of the appraisal team swayed the results and was later accused of bribery after the results were announced, Director Liu, think about what would happen."
what happens?
First of all, if the appraisal result shows that Fu Qingyue does not need to bear criminal responsibility, it will inevitably cause rebellion among netizens.
At this time, it was revealed that some members of the appraisal team had accepted bribes. Without any evidence, everyone would naturally blame Fu Zheng.
With the overwhelming wave coming, the Fu family will certainly be severely damaged, and Fu Zheng himself will probably have to be suspended and investigated.
By the time he was cleared of all charges, not many people were paying attention to him, and the damage to Fu's image and financial losses were simply irreparable.
Director Liu hissed and suddenly thought of another possibility.
Someone is setting a trap for Fu Zheng.
The purpose of bribing the appraisal members was not to prevent Fu Qingyue from being punished, but to pin the charges of bribery and abuse of public power on Fu Zheng and the Fu family, causing disgust and resistance from netizens and other ordinary people.
Director Liu glanced at Fu Zheng. Did he really misunderstand Fu Zheng?
"Director Liu, have you figured it out?" Fu Zheng raised his eyebrows.
"You really didn't do it?"
Fu Zheng shook his head. "No, not only was it not me, I was the one who sent the report letter, so you can't find the IP address."
Hearing this, Director Liu had to believe it, "So that's how it is, no wonder."
"From the beginning, I thought of this situation and secretly sent people to monitor it. I thought the appraisal would be fair, but I didn't expect to find any problems."
Director Liu suddenly realized what was going on, a trace of gratitude on his face. He said, "Thank goodness you took precautions. If someone had succeeded, we would all be implicated. This person's actions were truly insidious; even I almost fell for them."
Not to mention those netizens who have only a superficial understanding of the matter.
Afterwards, Fu Zheng exchanged a few words with Director Liu, returned to the hotel, and told Wen Liang the results of the appraisal. As for his conversation with Director Liu, he did not mention it.
Fu Zheng had a candidate in mind for the person who would set him up.
