"I want to meet my lawyer. Before I see him again, I refuse to answer any questions." Zhou Ruotong shook her head and replied expressionlessly.

The presiding judge smiled faintly, shook his head and said, "Please face up to your current situation and actively cooperate with the police's investigation." After pausing, he continued to ask, "On June 12, did you accept Liu Zhong's banquet and signed the LED screen order and installation contract?" Zhou Ruotong raised her head proudly and said nothing.

A policeman next to him interjected: "Please cooperate with the police's investigation and don't treat it negatively, as this will only be detrimental to you."

"I want to see my lawyer." Zhou Ruotong shrugged and said.

After three interrogations, Zhou Ruotong treated her in this way. The three policemen had almost no patience. They lowered their heads and discussed for a few words, and then the presiding judge continued to speak: "Zhou Ruotong, please don't defend yourself. Your employee Liu Xin has already explained everything. I hope you can face up to your current situation and confess actively."

Hearing Liu Xin's explanation, a complicated look flashed across Zhou Ruotong's face. However, she still said indifferently: "I refuse to answer any questions before seeing my lawyer again."

The presiding judge tapped the table and exchanged glances with another policeman sitting next to him. Then he asked the recorder to take the notebook to Zhou Ruotong and said, "Please check whether the interrogation record is true."

Zhou Ruotong took it and looked at it for a few times. She didn't do an interrogation at all. The recorder just recorded the scene. She nodded and said, "It's true."

The recorder handed the ink and pen to her and said, "If it is true, please sign and print it."

The interrogation ended like this. When standing up from the interrogation chair, Zhou Ruotong asked, "When will I see my lawyer?"

The presiding judge pondered for a moment and said a little coldly: "You wait."

"This is my right." Zhou Ruotong's tone was a little cold.

The presiding judge sneered and said, "You have no right now."

"I am not a criminal yet. You cannot convict me. Why don't I have the right to meet with a lawyer?" Zhou Ruotong stared at the presiding judge.

The presiding judge spread his hands and said, "Then you can explain it earlier so that we can file a public prosecution sooner. Whether there is any crime will be sentenced to the court."

"I have nothing to explain, and I have not committed any crime." Zhou Ruotong said coldly.

"If you want to prove that you have not committed a crime, please cooperate with our investigation and complete the interrogation as soon as possible." The presiding judge also said coldly. After three interrogations, Zhou Ruotong seemed very arrogant and did not cooperate with their work at all.

"Then I'll wait to see my lawyer." Zhou Ruotong shrugged, then left the interrogation room under the custody of two policemen.

The police were not asked anything after the three interrogations, which also caused a headache. Especially now that the pressure on public opinion on the Internet is getting stronger and stronger, the urging calls from the leaders above also forced them to think of various ways to speed up the interrogation.

Especially on the morning of the second day after the interrogation of Zhou Ruotong, several heavyweight foreign media suddenly reported the matter, and seemed to be extremely concerned about the fairness and fairness of domestic laws. This ignited the entire online media industry and attracted great attention and discussion from the media. The pressure on the police was getting greater and greater.

In law, the trial is based on facts with evidence, not the facts that actually happen. The current situation is that in the face of all the evidence facts, it is not good for Zhou Ruotong. The police also used the evidence of these two facts to submit the case directly to the public prosecution and let the court judge the matter so as to confirm the matter and sentence Zhou Ruotong to at least ten or eight years.

However, in this situation, the superiors suddenly issued another order: investigate the whole matter clearly and give the public a fair and fair explanation.

It seems that the police have to take it seriously in the face of strong public opinion.

So, the next morning, Zhou Ruotong met her attorney as she wished.

"Now public opinion is beneficial to us, at least not disturbed by rights." The meeting time was short, and the lawyer did not exchange any excessive greetings and said directly: "But from the evidence, there is no hope of winning in this matter."

Zhou Ruotong frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Why?" "Because the other party has strong evidence, but we don't. Even if there is public opinion support now, the law only determines the facts of the evidence." The lawyer sighed and continued: "If we cannot provide favorable evidence, this time... there is really no chance of winning."

Zhou Ruotong's face was slightly cold. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then asked, "Have you seen Lin Zheng?"

The lawyer shook his head and said, "Lin Zheng has also been arrested, I haven't seen him yet."

Zhou Ruotong bit her lip and pondered for a moment. She continued, "What about Liu Xin?"

"He also went in, but he had met his lawyer yesterday." The attorney responded seriously: "They contacted me last night, but I had not met them before you agreed."

"Go and meet them." Zhou Ruotong nodded and said, "I'll find a way to meet Lin Zheng. He has evidence in his hands, but it's not time to hand it over."

After saying that, Zhou Ruotong glanced at the lawyer, stood up, and said calmly: "Lawyer Hu, I'll ask you this time."

Lawyer Hu also stood up, nodded, and said, "I will do my best."

When Zhou Ruotong met with Lawyer Hu, a high-level meeting was also held within the Chun'an Branch of Linhai City to discuss the current case.

The person who presided over the meeting was Director Dong of Chun'an Branch. He sat upright in the middle, holding a cigarette in his mouth, but could not hide his pressure.

After glanced at the audience, he pressed the cigarette butt out, and then said majesticly: "Okay, let's start the meeting." After that, he took out another cigarette and put it in his mouth, lit it, took a deep breath, and then said: "Old boy, is there any clues from Liu Zhong?"

A strong and sturdy male policeman sitting on his left shook his head and said, "No, Liu Zhong disappeared after installing the LED screen for Blue Fox Company. His family didn't know where he went. The company is still there, but no one in the company can find it."

Director Dong took a sip of cigarette, slapped the table again, and said coldly: "Have you found the IP address for posting information abroad?"

"No, the other party uses a wireless network card, and has changed the IP several times, but has not found it yet. However, it should have been sent by Zhou Ruotong's friend, otherwise there would not be so much detailed information. Moreover, the anti-reconnaissance ability is relatively high and the crisis public relations ability is super strong." The policeman who called Lao Tong continued.

"I'm not convinced by his grandmother. They posted a lot of information online, so they didn't leave any trace?" Director Dong took a puff of cigarettes and slapped the table and said, "I'll block and delete all information immediately. It is prohibited to post any related content in the future. Anyone who has forwarded the posts will use network location to track it." After saying that, he glanced at the audience and said coldly: "The leaders above are very angry about this matter, especially when foreign media reported this matter today. Now we must use all means to eliminate the impact it has caused. In addition, learn from this lesson, and any information on the Internet will be resolved as soon as possible."

"Director Dong, do all the information need to be deleted? Zheng..." said a tall and thin policeman sitting on the left of Director Dong.

However, before he could finish his words, Director Dong turned his head and glared at him, slapped the table and said, "Old Xing, don't you understand what I said just now? All the information will be blocked and deleted. If there is still media to report it, they will be arrested for spreading rumors."

Seeing that Director Dong was indeed angry, no one below dared to show off. Old Xing, who had been scolded just now, lowered his head, nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, I understand."

The reports from foreign media have indeed caused some negative impacts, so that some leaders have spoken directly, not allowing the media and the Internet to spread any information about the case, and must be tried as soon as possible.

The conference room was silent for a while, and the policeman named Tong spoke, "Dr. Dong, that case this time..."

"What's the current situation?" Director Dong directly interrupted his speech.

"The woman didn't tell anything, but the man said something, but they had no evidence to show that they had not committed a crime. But the evidence we found pointed to them." The policeman named Tong nodded and said.

"Then submit the public prosecution quickly, the superiors have already spoken." Director Dong put out half of the cigarette he had just smoked, and then said lightly.

In this way, Director Dong set the direction of the case. The main reason is that the pressure from the above is too great, and the reports from foreign media this morning made many people feel uneasy. If this continues, they will be disgraced. Therefore, they are thinking about using all means to prevent the release of various information on the Internet and judge the case in the shortest time.

Anna's original intention was to use the influence of foreign media to find a fair and fair investigation environment. But she did not expect that in this special country, doing so would backfire and would only make some people feel uneasy, and then use powerful means to clear them.

If there were no foreign media reports, the case might have really developed in the direction that Liu Xin imagined. But now it is completely beyond everyone's imagination.

Within two hours of the meeting of Chun'an Branch, almost all media and Internet websites that reported the incident received a call and blocked the information. At the same time, the technical police of the branch also began to use technical means to lock the IP address of the information.
