The system of confession and punishment is a law and regulation established by the state to save unnecessary time for judicial investigation and evidence collection, and at the same time to give criminals a chance to be given a lighter punishment. You don't need to pay a fine before you plead guilty. This will be implemented after the trial of the case.
