Who Made Him a Lawyer?-Chapter 88 - 84: A Case No One Dares to Take!

Zheng Mei went berserk, even with several people approaching her, she still wanted to kill Xu Liang.

"Damn it, you deserve to die!"

"You said if I signed the forgiveness agreement, you wouldn’t pursue it!"

"I won’t let you go even as a ghost!!!"

Zheng Mei screamed, her face full of rage, veins bulging on her neck.

But no matter how angry she was, it was useless. With the cooperation of several officers, she got farther and farther away from the crowd, and soon, Zheng Mei disappeared from sight.

But...

If you sign the forgiveness agreement, you won’t pursue?

Su Guo squinted at Xu Liang.

"Lawyer Xu? Isn’t there anything you’d like to explain?"

If he remembered correctly, in the Sun Quan Case, Xu Liang once used a forgiveness agreement to reduce Sun Quan’s sentence?

At that time, everyone was shocked, not knowing what method Xu Liang used to make those who had lost their son sign a forgiveness agreement for the murderer.

But now they knew...

Xu Liang fell into deep thought, and after a long while, he stiffened his expression.

"If I say..."

"At the time, I suspected she might be involved in a crime, so I tried to test her; if she signed it, it would prove she had something to hide, and if she didn’t, she had nothing to fear!"

"After she signed, I thought, since she had something to hide, she must have done something, so I decided to investigate."

"I ended up finding nothing, so I thought Zheng Mei was innocent, but since the forgiveness agreement was signed..."

"It would’ve been a waste not to use it."

"But, just after the second trial ended, I found an issue with Zheng Mei, so I fulfilled my obligation as a citizen and reported it."

Xu Liang said, his expression unchanging.

"Does this make sense to you?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

This scene made the bystanders’ eyes twitch.

Even Yang Ruoxi, behind them, inwardly exclaimed, ’Brilliant.’

"So you’re saying you tried to trick her, but didn’t expect she’d actually agree?" inquired Su Guo.

"Yes." Xu Liang nodded.

"You got the forgiveness agreement but happened to find nothing?"

"Yes."

"And after the second trial, you suddenly found a clue?"

"That’s right."

Looking at Xu Liang’s sincere face.

The crowd was instantaneously engrossed in thought.

After a while, Su Guo didn’t know whether to laugh angrily or sigh helplessly.

"Ha, that’s quite a coincidence."

"Good luck, good luck..." Xu Liang chuckled awkwardly.

Of course, he wasn’t afraid of them holding onto this point.

Just as Su Guo wanted to say something more.

Yang Ruoxi suddenly spoke up.

"Uncle Su, we have other clients..."

Su Guo paused, then nodded.

"Hmm, Yang, you go ahead."

Hmm?

Uncle Su? Yang?

Xu Liang paused, suspiciously staring at Yang Ruoxi.

Yang Ruoxi didn’t respond, her delicate and pretty face pursed her lips, appearing very ladylike, totally unlike the Yang Ruoxi Xu Liang had seen before.

She smiled lightly.

"Then we won’t disturb you anymore, Uncle Su~"

"Goodbye."

With those words.

Yang Ruoxi quickly led Xu Liang out.

Watching Xu Liang’s departing figure.

Su Guo rubbed his chin.

Recollections of Upper City University, Law Professor Wu Chengjun, filled his mind.

They were classmates, having taken different paths at graduation: Su Guo went into public office, while Wu became a teacher, and they were close friends.

"Old Wu..."

Su Guo looked at his colleagues around, his eyes filled with surprise.

"Old Wu was such an honest person, how did he end up with a litigator like that before retirement!?"

The people nearby also shook their heads in bewilderment.

Seeing this, Su Guo clicked his tongue and said:

"Tsk."

"Old Wu with those thick eyebrows... who’d have thought he’d be so sneaky, producing a student like that!"

"Might not have maintained his integrity till the end, sigh."

A lawyer praised by a prosecutor doesn’t necessarily have strong skills.

But if they leave the prosecutors fuming, they certainly are skilled!!

With that said.

Su Guo stopped speaking and got busy with the Zheng Mei case.

At the same time.

Within Upper City University.

In the law office, a dignified-faced professor sneezed.

"Achoo!"

"Who’s thinking of me?"

The esteemed professor pondered deeply.

...

...

"Little Yang, do you know that prosecutor?"

Meanwhile.

Having escaped the police station, Xu Liang breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Yang Ruoxi beside him with suspicion.

As they walked along Hongfu Street, they chatted.

"My dad’s with the Supreme Court, he’s with the Supreme Prosecution Office; they inevitably cross paths, so how could I not know him!?"

Yang Ruoxi smacked her lips and explained.

The Supreme Court and Supreme Prosecution Office often need to meet.

Knowing each other from both sides is quite normal.

It’s just...

"Wow, I couldn’t tell you had such connections!?"

Xu Liang raised an eyebrow.

Yang Ruoxi had just proudly lifted her chin, but unexpectedly, Xu Liang’s next words were:

"Yet your law firm still went under?"

Yang Ruoxi: ?

"Damn, are you trying to kill me!?" Yang Ruoxi seethed.

"Just joking, don’t take it seriously."

Xu Liang laughed, trying to smooth out Yang Ruoxi’s ruffled feathers.

Only when he promised her extra fried rice did Yang Ruoxi finally relent.

The two chatted, occasionally kicking at each other, as they slowly walked towards the law firm.

Soon, the firm’s tightly closed door came into view.

However, at the entrance...

There stood a person, face full of anger.

The person crossed their arms, standing at the doorway, although angry, a hint of puzzlement was in their eyes, evidently having only just arrived.

’Who is that?’

Xu Liang was taken aback, he glanced at Yang Ruoxi, who also shook her head, indicating she didn’t know.

After hesitating for a moment.

Xu Liang stepped forward and patted the man’s shoulder.

"Bro, who are you looking for?"

The man snapped out of it, saw Xu Liang, and spoke:

"I’m looking for a lawyer from this firm, the newspaper said this firm is very capable... but why is it closed?"

"Bro, do you live nearby? Do you know where the lawyer went?"

Looking for a lawyer?

There was only one lawyer in the firm, meaning...

This must be a client looking for him!?

Xu Liang’s frown eased, and he quickly pieced together the context.

Why do countless lawyers rush to take on criminal cases, even semi-free or entirely free of charge!?

Because criminal cases easily garner fame!

Once you’re famous, clients will naturally flock to you.

Though Xu Liang had only handled two criminal cases.

The significance of these two cases was sky-high!

His reputation in Hanhai City had become notable, though in the past days he’d been tied up with the Zhou Family’s matter...

"You’re here for a lawsuit?"

Xu Liang smiled.

"Yes."

"Before this, I went to several law firms, and none dared to take the case, then I saw a paper mentioning this firm, so I thought I’d come and see."

The man’s brows knitted tight, his demeanor seemed unsettled.

Visited many law firms?

None dared to take the case!?

Lawyers refusing to take a case!?

It’s not like Xu Liang was defaming, being a lawyer himself, but in the legal profession, so long as you’re paying enough... there’s nothing we won’t take!

The guy didn’t look like an average person, his attire suggested money was no issue, but those law firms...

Why not take it, with the money there?

"Who do you want to sue?"

Xu Liang was puzzled, he suddenly furrowed his brow and made an exploratory inquiry.

The man spoke angrily:

"The police!"

"I want to sue the Hanhai City police!!!"

As soon as those words fell.

Xu Liang’s pupils contracted sharply, like pinpoints, his face showing astonishment.

Sue the police???

"Why are you suing the police!?"
