In an instant, the scene fell into a deathly silence.

Officer Zhao's face was extremely grim, his gloomy eyes fixed on Xu Liang, emanating an inexplicable pressure.

Xu Liang was unfazed, merely meeting his gaze with calm eyes.

The surrounding air seemed to freeze at this moment, making it hard for others to breathe.

After a long pause, Officer Zhao coldly spat out a few words.

"Are you... questioning the police?"

"That's right."

Xu Liang raised his head, speaking expressionlessly.

Then he paused, pressing the question further.

"Why hasn't the police returned the body of the deceased, Sun Jin!?"

"Not even a month later, and the police haven't performed an autopsy at all!!!"

Two sentences, two questions.

Officer Zhao's face turned progressively livid.

"It's none of your business!" he said harshly, slapping the table.

"This concerns Sun Zhongmin!!!"

Xu Liang stood up abruptly, towering over him, questioning loudly, his eyes growing sharper.

"Right now, I am acting as Sun Zhongmin's agent, and he has entrusted me with all his rights related to this case!"

"And right now, I am asking the most reasonable and basic questions to the police!"

"Why is the body not being autopsied!?"

His voice was loud.

A crowd quickly gathered outside the office's Venetian blinds, peering through the slats and whispering to each other.

Officer Zhao said nothing, his chest heaved violently, eyes filled with rage, his fists clenched tightly.

He was very angry.

Never had a lawyer dared to tear the facade and question him so aggressively!

"Heh."

Xu Liang sneered, giving the other a once-over.

Then he took a deep breath, sat down again, and continued to look at the other calmly.

"I want to see the body."

Officer Zhao almost instinctively refused.

"No way!"

He stared intently at Xu Liang, biting out a few words.

"You have no right to see the body!"

"Not even a glance?" Su Yu frowned from the side.

"No way!"

Officer Zhao immediately turned his gaze to her, tapping his finger on the table.

"We have this right!" Yang Ruoxi also spoke up, the tension instantly escalating.

"I said, the body is involved in a criminal investigation!!!"

Zhao Qian angrily retorted, the words flying out with spittle.

"The police need the body for forensic investigation!"

Xu Liang said, "Then do it now!!!"

"You!"

Zhao Qian glared, his chest heaving violently, breathing heavily.

He said nothing more, his whole body seething, his eyes sweeping back and forth among the three of them.

This scene stirred tumultuous reactions from the onlookers outside the door.

"What's happening? Why is the tension so high?"

"I don't know, I can't understand... Who are those three? I've never seen them before..."

"I feel like it's related to the boy's case from February..."

"Huh? Wasn't that case not involving murder? It's still not resolved?"

"Not yet..."

"What's going on?"

"..."

The crowd discussed heatedly, their noisy whispers quickly seeping through the Venetian blinds into Officer Zhao's ears.

A restlessness rose in Zhao Qian's heart.

But Xu Liang's face remained cold, as he directly stood up, glancing at the police badge on the chest of the other person.

"Officer Zhao... Zhao Qian, is it? I've remembered your badge number."

Having said that.

Zhao Qian paused slightly.

Before he could speak, the person in front of him, expressionless, continued:

"If my client's reasonable request is again unreasonably denied and delayed by you."

"Then..."

Saying so, Xu Liang paused briefly.

Then he turned, looking down at the other. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"The police station better be prepared for a lawsuit, we..."

"See you in court!"

With that said.

The anger in Zhao Qian's chest could no longer be contained, and he stood up directly.

"Are you threatening the police!?"

"No."

Xu Liang remained devoid of any emotion, glancing at the other.

Then, he walked out with Su Yu and Yang Ruoxi.

As they approached the door, he paused slightly, looked back at the person, and dropped the final words.

"I'm merely stating a fact!"

After saying this.

He directly opened the door.

"Squeak~!"

The door opened.

In an instant, a group gathered at the door appeared in front of Xu Liang.

Those who couldn't dodge quickly stepped aside, making way for the three to leave.

Xu Liang surveyed around and then walked away directly.

Once they disappeared, the crowd finally withdrew their gaze from Xu Liang and turned it to Zhao Qian in the office.

The already upset Zhao Qian, seeing these people focusing on him, immediately erupted in anger.

"Don't you all have anything better to do all day!?"

"If not, get to work on those backlogged cases!"

"Look, look, what are you looking at!? Get out of my sight!"

He pointed at their noses, cursing loudly.

In an instant, the onlookers at the door shrank their necks and then scattered like birds and beasts.

Zhao Qian's face was unsightly. He took a deep breath before leaving the office with a stern face.

Closing the door casually.

"Bang!"

The door closed.

...

Meanwhile, Xu Liang and Yang Ruoxi, having left the police station, could no longer hold back.

"Why... why won't they even let us see the body!?"

Su Yu was shocked, unable to contain herself, stopping Xu Liang to ask just outside the police station door.

"He doesn't have any authority to improperly retain the body in this situation, right?"

Xu Liang took a deep breath, nodding.

Zhao Qian's attitude was very suspicious.

Firstly, when he first responded to my inquiry, he did so dismissively.

However, when I pursued the most fundamental questions, he remained tight-lipped, unwilling to offer a word!

Unless...

"Was it an order from above!?"

Yang Ruoxi's heart suddenly tightened, looking at Xu Liang in shock.
