Audas and all the higher-ups in the company were sent to the police station.
They were all still dumbfounded.
When Audas saw Chen Zhao, he was clearly stunned.
"Mr. Chen, why are you here?" Audas asked, confused.
"I was in a car accident. The perpetrator said something that pissed me off." Chen Zhao smiled at Audas.
"Mr. Chen, could there be some kind of misunderstanding?" Audas's face darkened.
"I don't care if it's a misunderstanding or not. I just need an answer. As long as it's related to this case, I won't let them leave prison alive."
Chen Zhao stood up and patted Audas' shoulder. "Just like my old enemy, I don't care how much I spend. I'm willing to spend one million or ten million dollars, or even more. Oh, good luck."
After Chen Zhao left, David walked over.
"Mr. Audas, you're in big trouble."
"I'm waiting for my lawyer. He's not here. I refuse to answer any questions."
"Of course."
If the prosecution was a commoner or the police, the lawyer could indeed put a lot of pressure on the prosecution.
But now, the prosecution was someone even richer than them.
As for the suspect, he had a lot of bad records.
The police also had a lot of evidence.
In Audas's interrogation room, his lawyer hadn't arrived yet.
Chen Zhao's legal team came in.
Without saying anything, each of them carried a large number of documents and started reading them before Audas.
This caused the atmosphere in the interrogation room to become extremely tense.
"Police? Who are they?"
"Oh, they're lawyers, but not yours."
"I haven't received a summons from the court yet. They can't appear here. I want them to leave immediately. If they're here, I refuse to answer any questions."
"They're reading the victim's charges," David said, unconcerned.
Actually, the lawyers of both parties couldn't meet or interact with the other party's representatives.
However, there were too many loopholes in this kind of thing.
"Mr. Audas, according to our client's request, we're going to sue you. The charges include attempted murder, causing serious injury, intentionally destroying valuable property, huge financial fraud, and inciting others to rob. There's also civil compensation, including our client's financial losses. The total amount is over 200 million dollars."
"What? You're framing me. "
"Whether it's a false accusation or not is up to the court to decide," the leading lawyer said.
"I don't have 200 million USD. I can't even take out 2 million USD."
Audas was not the leader of the scam, but one of the higher-ups.
Even the head of the fraud group couldn't take out 200 million USD.
He didn't even have 20 million USD.
The total amount of money they had swindled was less than twenty million dollars.
"That's your problem, but we can guarantee that the compensation will be decided. All of your assets will be used as compensation. Even after you get out of prison, you'll have nothing."
"You can't do this … Police, they're threatening us." Audas panicked.
"The police will also file a criminal complaint against you. You will be sent to court for second-degree murder, endangering public safety, threatening, and intentional injury," David said indifferently.
At this moment, the appointed lawyer arrived at the scene.
This lawyer was not Audas's personal lawyer, but a lawyer specially assigned to him by the police.
Most of the time, this kind of lawyer was just going through the motions.
After seeing the group of people in the room, he understood the situation.
This lawyer had already given up on Audas in his heart.
For a case like this with concrete evidence, all he could do was follow the procedure.
If Audas needed it, he could ask the judge for leniency.
That was pretty much all he could do.
Of course, considering that it wasn't just the police who filed the lawsuit, it also involved a super tycoon.
Then the pleading step could be skipped.
With all these crimes added up, even if Audas could get out of prison, it would be 30 years of loss.
This lawyer admired Audas. He even scammed a super tycoon.
From all the signs, it was obvious that this super tycoon was purposely messing with him.
Just the cost of a team of bandit lawyers in the interrogation room was very high.
These bandit lawyers were not comparable to a lawyer like him who specialized in public security, procuratorial, and judicial work.
Their efficiency and professionalism, as well as their fees, were all ten times or even tens of times more than a normal lawyer.
Of course, as long as they could control the case, the profits would also be high.
"Since everyone is here, let's start the interrogation," David said expressionlessly.
"I want them to leave," Audas said as he pointed at the bandit lawyers.
The appointed lawyer was in a difficult position. He didn't want to go against these bandit lawyers.
The name of the bandit lawyers was notorious in the industry.
Of course, compared to their notorious reputation, they were much more professional than their peers.
"Mr. Audas, are you sure you want to expel us from here? If you insist, I can guarantee that you will never be able to leave prison, "the leading lawyer said.
"You're threatening … You all saw it, you all saw it," Audas yelled agitatedly.
The appointed lawyer sighed and said, "Mr. Audas, please calm down. The current situation is very disadvantageous to you. I think you should cooperate with them and not fight them. That won't do you any good."
"What do you mean? Are you my lawyer or not? "
"If you're not satisfied with my work, you can ask for a new lawyer, but it doesn't matter who comes. The plaintiff has already submitted a financial loss report and injury report to the court. The financial loss is more than 200 million USD, and that injury report can add at least three years to your sentence."
At this moment, Audas realized that the entire world was standing against him.
Even his lawyer was the same. He had no intention of helping him at all.
"If I cooperate … what can I get?"
"At least you won't die in prison," the leading lawyer said.
"Cough, cough …" David coughed. Chen Zhao's legal team was too explicit with their words.
"From what I know, the plaintiff's assets are more than 10 billion dollars," David said. "I think you should cooperate."
