"Dig... dig a grave!?"

In an instant.

The entire hall was filled with shock, as Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu exchanged glances, witnessing the brewing astonishment in each other's eyes.

These two words were something they never would have expected...

Let alone whether it violates morality.

Just the question of whether anyone could survive after digging it up is a question mark!

For example.

If you were a pair of parents, with a lively and cheerful child, but one day the child dies in a bizarre way.

And you couldn't find any evidence of the cause of death, forcing you to hurriedly bury the body, while still feeling deep sorrow inside.

In such a situation, if someone suddenly digs up your child's grave, then takes the body and cuts it into chaos with a knife...

What would you do in this situation?

"Not to mention this is the countryside, where all relatives and friends live together."

"If we really dig the grave and get discovered, at the very least, the whole village would block us!"

Yang Ruoxi repeatedly tried to persuade.

The folk customs these days are very fierce.

Let alone Xu Liang, even if the police wanted to dig a grave, they couldn't!

Do you think Zhao Qian dares to forcibly dig up a grave?

Even if he has a gun, it's useless!

If he dares to dig, the whole village could instantly surround him, and if Zhao Qian gets slightly agitated... a brawl between both sides would be inevitable!

This is no joke.

Not even now, even in the future, if the police want to arrest someone in a remote village, they have to go at night quietly.

If they swagger in... don't even mention whether they can take the person away.

Even their own safety might be compromised!

This is how tricky it is for the police, let alone a few young lawyers.

"Senior brother, maybe we should just forget it..."

Su Yu whispered, "Let's think of another way..."

"No!"

"We've dragged on for too long!"

Xu Liang immediately rejected the idea. His mind was in a storm of thoughts, with various complex emotions surfacing continuously.

He now had a vague sense of urgency.

An inexplicable urgency, but it was pushing him, making it impossible for him to calm down, as if slowing down would have tremendous consequences...

Especially with Liu Kun's arrival.

The man tempted him with a price of four million not to get involved in this matter...

Four million.

Four million in 2004!

This isn't like Duan Jianhao's emotional involvement, spending money for Duan Feipeng nonstop.

It's purely a matter of interest dispute!

In other words.

Liu Kun offering four million to cover up the case only shows the severity of the case...

Far exceeds four million!!!

"We must dig the grave!"

Xu Liang's eyes focused.

"The autopsy must be done."

Having said that, he no longer hesitated, stood up directly, cast aside the idea of sleeping, picked up his clothes, and headed out.

"Chao, come with me."

With that, Xu Liang hurriedly headed outside.

This involved physical disputes...

He wouldn't bring the two girls along, just like when he sneaked into the funeral home before.

However, as he was about to leave.

Yang Ruoxi was a bit anxious.

She stood up directly and called after him.

"What should the two of us do?"

Hearing this, Xu Liang, who had reached the door, paused his steps, turned around, and looked at the two...

At this stage, what could they do?

Xu Liang fell into deep thought.

Unconsciously, Liu Kun's image appeared in his mind.

Clearly, Liu Kun must be keeping an eye on events in Huangyan Village, otherwise, there's no way he would have completed a background check within a day, even finding out which hotel he was staying at...

He knew quite a lot about us, and he was certain that the waters in Sunzhou City were muddied, and someone like him couldn't stir them alone.

And himself...

He knew nothing about Liu Kun!

"You both first investigate the surface-level details."

"Such as Liu Kun's case and who he's working for."

Xu Liang made up his mind, and his mind immediately had a plan.

Without delay, he spoke to the two girls, arranging:

"Investigate the company behind him."

"Yes, if possible... also check if there are any records of the company being sued by others."

The saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

And how many enemies could Liu Kun's boss have?

Xu Liang didn't know.

But such a long-term, widespread death incident, there wouldn't only be himself investigating him!

Hence.

Friends, naturally, should be more in number!

"Inform me immediately if there's any news!"

After saying this, Xu Liang turned and ran outside with Wang Chao.

Time waits for no one.

It was already half-past eleven, the perfect time on a dark, windy night for murder... grave-digging and autopsy!

The two of them quickly got into the car.

Without hesitation, Xu Liang stepped on the gas, turned the car around, and drove towards Huangyan Village.

At the entrance of the hotel.

The two girls watched the car fade away until no trace was visible before withdrawing their gazes.

"What should we do now?"

Su Yu looked at Yang Ruoxi, asking softly.

She had only defended Wu Yong at this point, and clearly lacked a big chunk of experience in the investigative stage compared to Yang Ruoxi.

Yang Ruoxi pondered for a moment, then focused her gaze; an idea formed in her mind.

"Go to the courthouse!"

Generally, the cases a lawyer and a company have gone through are easy to investigate.

Like the 'Judgment Document Network' officially launched in 2013, where you can find all kinds of detailed court trial materials.

And for the lawsuits a company is in, you can check directly through a small program.

It wasn't so convenient in 2005, but... they could still find out by going to the courthouse!

"To the courthouse?"

Su Yu was startled.

She was sensitive and immediately realized what going to the courthouse might entail.

"The police are suppressing the news; would going to the courthouse alert the snake?" she worried.

"It won't."

Yang Ruoxi shook her head.

Even if they go to the courthouse, it would only draw attention, and could even cover for Xu Liang!
