204: Zhou Yun: You are derelict in your duty.

Tian Xiashan’s mind was truly in a mess at this moment, because… Zhou Yun on the other side had instilled too much information in a short time, so much so that his brain couldn’t keep up.

The previous case was judged, and then what evil force gang was identified?

No, what is all this about? Tian Xiashan vaguely remembered that the previous case that went to Court should have been Lü Xinhao’s robbery and gang rape case.

But no matter how he thought about it, it couldn’t be an evil force gang, could it? Weren’t they all just students?

Thinking of this, Tian Xiashan hurriedly said, “Wait, what do you mean? What evil force gang? How did a few students together become an evil force gang?”

Zhou Yun smiled upon hearing this and said, “So Principal Tian doesn’t quite understand, huh? That’s okay, I’ll explain it to you.”

With that, Zhou Yun really began to explain: “According to Article… of the Anti-Organized Crime Law…”

Anyway, he repeated what he had told Chen Yinghe before, which perfectly matched.

“So you see, it’s really too perfect, so after I brought it up, the Fengxian County Procuratorate, after discussion, supported my view.”

“Then the Jinghai City Procuratorate, as well as the Jinghai City Intermediate Court and the Jiangdong Province High Court, also supported my view, believing that this gang composed of adults and minors could indeed be identified as an evil force.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, an evil force gang emerged in the school, and some leaders are still saying that they have fulfilled their educational supervision responsibilities. Oh, this is really too interesting.”

“Principal Tian, don’t you agree?”

Tian Xiashan finally understood. There was no other way; Zhou Yun’s skill of “speaking to people in their language and to ghosts in theirs” had basically reached perfection.

How to understand this phrase? It means that when facing ordinary people who don’t understand the law, one should try to speak in plain language, just like how Zhou Yun would always explain after speaking legal terms: “In plain language, it’s like this and that.”

Then, when facing legal professionals, one should speak in legal jargon to show professionalism.

Although what he had just told Tian Xiashan was the same as what he had told Chen Yinghe, the way of expression was different.

Tian Xiashan’s face had already changed, and he said, “So you reported me by my real name?”

“Of course! If I missed such a good opportunity, would I still be Zhou Yun?” Mr. Zhou shamelessly said, “When a pervert encounters a naked chicken, how can he hold back?”

Even though Tian Xiashan had seen countless types of people in the small county, he couldn’t help but curse, “Damn!” after hearing this.

That guy on the other side was simply not human.

And he even claimed to be a normal person! What normal person talks like that? What normal person does things like that!

The reason was even that he couldn’t hold back, which truly left Tian Xiashan speechless.

Zhou Yun continued, “Look at you, Old Tian, getting all anxious. Although I reported you, the investigation hasn’t started yet, so what’s the rush? Hurry up and try to find your connections to see if they can save you.”

“Oh, right, your leader doesn’t count, he was also reported by me.”

“Alright, I’ve told you everything. Take your time and think about how to deal with it. Also, remember to pay compensation, oh, after the criminal case is done, I will apply to reopen the case later.”

After speaking, Zhou Yun directly hung up the phone and burst into laughter, looking up at the sky.

Happy, truly too happy. To be honest, those students were certainly detestable, but their parents and the school were equally detestable!

Especially the school, or more accurately, the school leaders and the leaders of the Education Department!

When they encountered problems, they would first dump the matter on the teachers and let the teachers handle it.

What rights do teachers have then? Corporal punishment? Corporal punishment is not allowed now.

Find parents? What can teachers do if parents don’t come?

Educating students? A casual education is simply useless. If they say something a little harsher, students will threaten to commit suicide, and if something happens, the teachers take all the blame, while the school leaders and Education Department leaders perfectly disappear.

To put it bluntly, for students who are incorrigible, unmanageable, and who severely disrupt school order, there is a set of regulations on how to manage them.

The legal basis is the “Rules for Educational Discipline in Primary and Secondary Schools (Trial)” promulgated in December 2020 and implemented on March 1, 2021.

Articles 7, 8, 9, and 10 of these “Rules” stipulate, from minor to severe, the disciplinary measures that schools and relevant departments can take.

Among them, Article 10 stipulates that for students whose violations are serious, or who do not correct themselves after multiple educational disciplines, the school may give disciplinary punishments such as warning, serious warning, demerit, or probation.

For students with serious misconduct, the school may, in accordance with legal procedures, cooperate with parents and relevant departments to transfer them to a special school for educational correction.

Many people may not be familiar with special schools. This used to be called work-study schools, which certainly makes it clear, but it was later renamed educational correction special schools.

That means, if they really can’t be managed, they are directly transferred to such special schools for education. To put it bluntly, it means not to keep them in normal schools to interfere with other students.

The “cooperate with parents” here is actually a polite way of speaking, because parents are guardians, and transferring schools certainly requires parental cooperation, but it should also be known that this is a “disciplinary measure,” which means punishment.

Parents must cooperate no matter what they think.

However, although the regulations have been out for several years, many people probably haven't seen this type of discipline. Why? Because it's very troublesome to implement.

How to do it? Article 43 of the “Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency” stipulates:

For minors with serious misconduct, if the parents or other guardians of the minor, or the school they attend, are unable to manage or manage ineffectively, they may apply to the education administrative department. After evaluation and approval by the special education guidance committee, the education administrative department shall decide to send them to a special school to receive special education.

As for what constitutes serious misconduct, Article 38 of the law lists eight situations and a catch-all provision.

In short, what schools need to do is to discover problems in a timely manner and manage and educate them promptly.

But in reality, whether it’s the school or the Education Department, they all want to do things in the easiest way possible. Primary schools are generally better, and junior high school is only three years, so they just muddle through and send the students away.

One can only say that the idea is good, but some students really cannot be muddled through. For example, Lü Xinhao, was he so bold from the beginning?

Did he dare to rob for money from the beginning? Did he dare to directly call people to gang rape?

That’s definitely impossible. At first, he would also have a fear of the school and the teachers.

But gradually he found that, hey, no matter how much trouble I cause, no one can control me, so I don’t need to be afraid at all. I can do whatever I want. There must have been a gradual transition period for this.

We actually have a complete set of regulations in this regard, not just the “Law on the Protection of Minors,” but due to various reasons, now… there’s nothing that can be done.

As for the responsibility of school leaders, Article 66 of the “Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency” stipulates that if state organs and their staff abuse their power, neglect their duties, or engage in favoritism and malpractice in the prevention of juvenile delinquency, the directly responsible supervisors and other directly responsible personnel shall be given sanctions in accordance with the law.

Article 67: Those who violate the provisions of this Law and constitute a crime shall be investigated for criminal responsibility in accordance with the law.

In Mr. Zhou’s opinion, Tian Xiashan clearly neglected his duties!

It remains to be seen how he will be dealt with then.

In the office, cold sweat began to bead on Tian Xiashan’s forehead. This matter had suddenly become so serious that he simply couldn’t bear it.

Evil force gang, how could such a name be linked to minors? He couldn’t understand it.

What to do now? Find connections? If what Zhou Yun said was true, the connections he knew probably couldn’t help.

Or should he communicate with his leader again? He hoped nothing would happen.
