Chapter 260: Chapter 189: Wu Chengjun: Let Me Lend You a Hand! [4,000-Word Major Chapter!]

Deviation?

Xu Liang’s heart tightened.

As a lawyer, what’s typically the trickiest situation?

Is it that the opposing lawyer is too litigious?

Or perhaps, the case is extremely difficult?

No, neither.

It’s when you start settling the commission fee, and suddenly the client begins to haggle with you!

Indeed, in many cases, the lawyer agrees on the price with the client from the start, and follows through based on the contract.

But after the work is completed, the client reneges, maybe offering only fifty instead of the agreed one hundred, even claiming the work was simple, and fifty is already generous...

This is often seen among locksmiths.

"The commission was agreed from the start!"

Xu Liang quickly said, not giving the other party any chance to get their money back.

No money, just a life!

Anyway, the money was already transferred to the account, and as long as he didn’t return it, the client had no recourse.

But it was obvious that Sun Zhongmin’s character wouldn’t be so vile.

"No, I mean... how about an extra three million?"

Seeing the misunderstanding, Sun Zhongmin quickly spoke with excitement.

Three million?

"It’s not some supposed radioactivity that killed my son, it’s Luo Jun!"

"You help me get revenge, and you’re my benefactor..."

Sun Zhongmin said, his voice sincerely earnest.

He listened to what the residents were saying.

If it were a normal commission, there’d be no need to consider.

But since the other party risked life and limb to help, and at a low price, how could he not be a benefactor!

Since there’s a favor involved, he had no reason to take advantage of the other party!

"The court awarded me five million in compensation... I don’t need this money, I offer you three million!" Sun Zhongmin said.

Three million?

That adds up to four million!?

Xu Liang twitched his eye, but shook his head immediately after.

"Go by the contract, it doesn’t specify any additional charges."

"I only want what’s mine."

Initially, he agreed that one million would settle everything.

The steel case that came up later naturally included in that!

He was one to keep his word!

Also of professional integrity!

"But..."

Sun Zhongmin was deeply moved, not realizing any other way to repay the favor.

Just as he was about to say something more.

A sound suddenly rang out.

"Doo doo doo~"

Xu Liang instinctively looked down at his pocket.

The phone in his pants pocket didn’t vibrate.

He turned to look at Wang Chao.

Wang Chao pulled a phone from his pocket and opened it, revealing the caller ID: Master.

"A call from my master."

Wang Chao said, realizing he hadn’t returned to work for over a week!

"Pick it up and see what’s going on." Xu Liang suggested.

Wang Chao pressed the call button, and the next moment, there was a ’doo’ sound.

The voice of Chen Changchun from Hanhai City Hongfu District’s criminal police unit sounded.

"It’s the 17th, are you done playing?"

Chen Changchun sounded disgruntled but wasn’t pushing.

Xu Liang thought for a moment, realizing why the other party spoke like that.

The City Police Department’s Director, Du Tao, must have reported the situation, so the other party knew about the Sunzhou case.

Knowing this, they called Wang Chao to check on him.

"Captain Chen, Chao is right next to me." Xu Liang suddenly said.

There was a pause on Chen Changchun’s side, then he said:

"Alright, with you there I’m relieved."

"Keep an eye on this kid, don’t let him wander off!"

"I can’t believe it, you’re touring Sunzhou for over a week without calling the police department, it must be quite fun..."

Chen Changchun spoke sarcastically to Wang Chao.

But to be honest.

Wang Chao... isn’t the brightest.

He didn’t realize the sarcasm but found it curious!

Thinking of this, Wang Chao excitedly replied to Chen Changchun on the phone:

"Master, Sunzhou is so much fun!"

"You don’t know all the things I’ve been doing here."

Recalling the experiences from the past few days, Wang Chao couldn’t help but get excited, his adrenaline surging.

Tourism?

Seeing sights, playing in water, hiking hills, that’s tourism?

Have you ever pried open mortuary cabinet locks in a funeral home to look at corpses?

Experienced the thrill of grave-digging across the mountains at night?

Gone through stealing corpses that thieves dug up!?

Crashed wakes, kept vigil, attended funerals...

Grave digging, grave digging, and more grave digging, with mounds dug up across the mountains.

With no deaths at home, just go to the funeral home; regardless of family numbers, Wang Chao always visited the funeral home more than others to play!

This is what real tourism should be, like what I’ve done!

These few days.

More thrilling than others’ whole lives!

"It’s so fun, compared to this, amusement parks and theme parks are just for kids!"

Wang Chao cheerfully reported to his master.

"The haunted houses in amusement parks, not even ghosts and still called haunted houses."

"That’s false advertising!"

Sunzhou is different.

Here, digging graves, every corpse he dug up was real!

Chen Changchun fell silent.

As the captain of a police team, his communication skills were quite strong.

But facing this...

He couldn’t find words for a while, thought for a while, and struggled to find something to say.

After some time, Chen Changchun finally spoke to Xu Liang:

"Lawyer Xu, if you’re done, bring this kid back."

"Staying out there... is likely to trouble others."

"Alright."

Xu Liang readily agreed, he wasn’t planning to stay in Sunzhou either.

"I’ll head back this afternoon."

"Okay, then I’ll hang up." Chen Changchun said.

Soon, the call ended.

Seeing this, Sun Zhongmin hesitated again, but this time Xu Liang directly said:

"Mr. Sun, I’ll head back to the firm."

He looked at his client and smiled.
