At this moment, Gao Lingquan's eyes were blinking, as if he still didn't quite understand why he was tied here. He was sitting on the sand below the stage, surrounded by National Army soldiers with guns and ammunition. He was sweating profusely and complained that his hands hurt from being tied, begging the soldiers to loosen his grip.
"I'll untie it for you when the sentence is over." A small soldier grinned, with a sinister and malicious look on his face. He was quite polite. There was a prisoner next to him who asked for a drink of water. He happened to meet a Korean soldier from the White Horse Team. He didn't understand and was impatient. He hit him with the butt of a rifle until his mouth was bleeding and he shut up.
The soldiers guarding them probably knew their fate a long time ago and made no excuses. The prisoners who were squatting, standing or even lying down had different expressions. Some were dumbfounded, some were holding their heads in silence, some were baring their teeth and showing dissatisfaction, and some were still looking indifferent and cynical...
The crowd was noisy. After a while, there was a few buzzes from the loudspeaker. Everyone knew that the car was about to start. The sound of the buzzer suddenly quieted down. Zeng Juan felt that it was magical: it was so noisy just now that he had to be close to his ear to hear it. When I heard the words, I could even hear the drop of a pin.
Zeng Juan knew that the scientific name of this public trial was the "Senate People's Tribunal". Like the court trial, it was the "statutory trial method" of Australians, and the verdicts issued after the trial had "legal effect". But there are differences. What is the difference? His civil service examination book did not elaborate on it. Generally speaking, the former is relatively simple and based more on public opinion; it is suitable for cases with relatively simple circumstances and more involvement in the daily lives of ordinary people.
These are all cliches. How are they different? Zeng Juan still wants to take a look.
Liang Xinhu shouted from above, "Bring up prisoner No. 1!" The Nationalist Army dragged up a person next to Gao Lingquan. Zeng Juan did not recognize this person, but Gao Lingquan recognized it. This was the old bustard of the Visiting Spring Courtyard: Sister Han Qiao.
Sister Han Qiao was accused of "human trafficking" in the Ming Nu case and was involved in the Maojia Inn case. Later, it was revealed that he had tortured prostitutes, forced girls into prostitution, and tortured prostitutes to death in a crackdown on the prostitution industry. She was beaten severely during the "on-site struggle" in the brothel. After being transferred to the "special task force", she was tortured and interrogated about her relationship with the Liang family. She was tortured to the point of losing her shape. After a few months, she was originally charming and graceful. The one who can seduce the hearts of many dandies turned out to be a haggard half-old woman. If Gao Lingquan hadn't been so close, he wouldn't have been able to believe it.
However, this prisoner No. 1 turned out to be just an old bustard. Both Zeng Juan and the people present felt that it was "not interesting enough" - they thought that a heavyweight was needed anyway.
Sister Han Qiao was staggeringly brought to the stage. She was covered in sores and the pain was unbearable. She could not stand or sit down. She was still kneeling on the stage and gasping for breath.
Sister Han Qiao ranked first because of Liu Xiang. Although she was not a leading member, she had iconic significance in the "New Life Movement" in Guangzhou. It demonstrates the Senate's attitude and determination to protect the rights and interests of women and children and severely crack down on human trafficking.
The criminal's charges will be announced by the naturalized citizen staff at the judicial office. This kind of trial does not have a prosecution and defense process, nor does it display witness or material evidence. It simply explains the crimes of the prisoner. The procedure is as simple as possible, highlighting the suffering of the victims and mobilizing people's emotions - the propaganda slogan is commonly known as "poke the G-spot" - —To achieve the dual purpose of combating and promoting.
This was the first time Zeng Juan saw the madam who bribed Ming Nu. Seeing her miserable state, she must have suffered a lot, and he couldn't help but secretly feel relieved. He had never come into contact with brothels or prostitutes in the past, so seeing Sister Han Qiao being escorted here felt a little strange. However, it was horrifying to hear the cadres read out the various actions of Sister Han Qiao in persecuting prostitutes, forcing people to death and maiming people - only the prostitutes complained about five people. She also secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, Akira did not fall into her hands! He became increasingly grateful to Li Ziyu and Gao Chongjiu, and also to the Senate who brought new trends. If the Senate had not come to Guangzhou, Mingnu would have been doomed and would have fallen into hell forever!
After the cadres announced the charges, as usual, the victim took the stage to complain. Several prostitutes from the Spring Court came to the stage one after another to tell Sister Han Qiao that she had been forced into prostitution and subjected them to inhuman torture. Although it did not arouse much resonance, it also filled the people listening to the trial with indignation.
After the accusation, came the verdict, and Liang Xinhu directly announced: "Death penalty." There was a burst of applause immediately from the audience. More than a dozen prostitutes from the visiting spring courtyard gathered in the audience, especially conspicuous. Their expressions were both excited and somewhat disbelieving. When they heard that Sister Han Qiao had been sentenced to "death", everyone was so happy that they burst into tears. Several middle-aged and elderly men and women shed tears after hearing the verdict. Regardless of the crowd, they crawled on the ground and kowtowed to the public hearing platform. He also took out paper money and firecrackers and was about to burn them on the spot, but was stopped by the nearby police.
Two policemen came up and pulled Sister Han Qiao down who was lying limply on the ground. The woman who was still depressed suddenly seemed to have woken up. She was rolling around on the stage and struggling, screaming in a high voice: "Spare her life." However, he was unable to break free from the power of the two policemen and was tied up and dragged off the stage. While his body was being dragged, he wailed loudly and shortly: "I-don't-go-ah-I-don't-go-ah-ah-" the sound echoed over the public hearing platform, and it was unspeakable.
The police dragged her to the gallows, and as the noose tightened and the trap door clanked, the crowd let out a surprised sigh.
Without giving them much time to be surprised and discuss, prisoner No. 2 was brought up: it was Gao Lingquan.
Although Sister Han Qiao had many crimes and had killed people, after all, her crimes were only committed in a courtyard, and she did not cause much reaction after being escorted to the stage.
When Gao Ling was brought forward, the audience immediately roared. Naturalized cadres began to report his history and crimes.
Speaking of Gao Lingquan himself, apart from the fact that he had molested women for many years and caused several women to commit suicide in humiliation, he did not commit any other heinous acts. However, the Gao family's crimes in Guangzhou over the years have caused great public outrage and can be said to have offended the entire society from top to bottom. Citizen class. Now that his father Gao Tianshi is dead, and the whereabouts of Gao Lingxiang, who succeeded him as head of the regiment, are unknown, all the hatred accumulated over the years has been vented on his head.
Gao Lingquan stared with a pair of bubble eyes, with a bit of confusion on his face, and his mouth was grinning in surprise - he seemed not to understand why the people in the audience had such a violent reaction. In his opinion, his behavior was "ridiculous" at best. "As for getting a few women, except for the man who was cuckolded and the woman's parents, probably no one will care. Why are the people trying to eat him alive?
Unexpectedly, before the judicial officer had finished speaking, the victim's representative crowded forward and asked to speak and accuse. The first one can still be told from beginning to end. The second one said, suddenly he couldn't hold back his anger, so he rushed over and started beating him. He was quickly stopped by the National Army. Then several people climbed up on ladders from the stage, all trying to accuse the Gao family of their crimes. Liang Xinhu quickly took care to maintain order and spoke one by one.
This was an important lecture, and those who wanted to accuse were lined up. Even though someone kept reminding him, "Speak of what matters!" the accuser still couldn't finish what he wanted to say. He had to limit one person to three minutes, but it still didn't work. Some people didn't care, just talked about themselves, and even took out their bloody clothes and displayed them on the stage. There was chaos on the stage for a while.
There was also a commotion in the audience, and everyone shouted: Beat him, kill him, chop him! Zeng Juan was horrified to see it, and secretly felt happy in his heart. Over the years, his family had been blackmailed by beggars from the Guandi Temple. Sometimes, because of family celebrations or funerals, they may even be extorted from them for ten and a half days of their income.
After everyone complained, Zeng Juan realized that the Gao family's crime was not just begging for money and extorting money from the citizens. A few more laborers came up, waving their fists and complaining loudly. Zeng Juan could barely understand that they were accusing Guandi Temple of trying to get rid of these hard laborers, otherwise they would be thrown into the smelly river ditch with their old fists. Vegetable farmers in the suburbs have also been tortured by the Guandi Temple people for many years. Vegetables transported into Guangzhou have to be paid by "dental servants". If they disobey, they will dump the vegetables into the ditch and beat the vegetable farmers wantonly. Many of them were killed or injured... ...People from all walks of life, including scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants, came forward to denounce the evil committed by the people of Guandi Temple. The scope of the crimes involved was so wide, and the crimes and blood debts were so great that even Zeng Juan was surprised.
Ding Ding was watching in a tent under the stage at this time - he was here to collect information and prepare materials to write the final chapter of the Maojia Inn case. He listened for a while and felt a little unbelievable. He turned around and asked Mu Min, who was sitting in the back: "How much of this was made up by you? It wouldn't look good if it slapped someone in the face."
Mu Min sneered: "If we open it up and let everyone talk, we won't be able to finish it by tomorrow night."
Ding Ding was a little embarrassed and was about to say something when suddenly there was a commotion outside and a victim suddenly rushed up to beat Gao Lingquan. The host on stage and the police stopped and persuaded me. An old woman whose son was killed by Gao Tianshi and sold his wife took out scissors and tried to stab Gao Lingquan, but she only managed to pierce Gao Lingquan's clothes. Others also rushed forward to beat or kill them. The cadres and police on the stage tried their best to stop them, and it was difficult to maintain order on the stage.
Liang Xinhu hurriedly spoke: "Everyone, don't come up anymore. Please let us finish the trial work! The Senate must make the decision for everyone! Can you guys see it?"
The audience kept answering. But as soon as Liang Xinhu finished speaking, people in the audience who were ready for revenge jumped up again. One goes up here and the other climbs there. The Nationalist Army formed an interception line in the audience and tried their best to block it. However, the crowd below was like a sea wave, coming up in waves, and the National Army was almost unable to withstand it.
