my wife is a consul

Chapter 145

"Mrs. Jia announced her candidacy for the fourth district councilor? Cao Ying, the original fourth district councilor, is running for the third district?"

Lu Ming just laughed, "It's interesting."

Murong Xue nodded, but felt a little nervous, because Madam Jia stood behind her, but the old Baqueluo of the Baqueluo family was the chief member of the Beiguan Seven-member Committee.

It was obvious at first that Mrs. Jia was planning to run for the seat of the third district councilor, but she was beaten back by the boss with a slap in the face.

After all, Yang Guiren couldn't come to collect the mooncakes and vouchers that were originally distributed, and it would be even more messy.

Now, Mrs. Jia is going to the fourth district, and Mr. Cao is coming to the third district.

The Bucklow family will definitely do their best to help Councilor Cao run for the third district, because it means that Councilor Cao gave up the fourth district to the Bucklow family.

Councilor Cao Ying is a writer and commentator on current affairs. He has always had a good reputation. He often publishes in newspapers and periodicals to speak out for ordinary people.

If it is a political debate, the boss may not be his opponent. After all, Councilor Cao is in this business.

However, when interviewed by the TV station, they have already asked questions about being on TV. The program has already been broadcast, and the boss expressed his willingness to debate with any candidate on TV about each other's community policies and political views.

So, the Bucklow family supported Cao Ying's campaign in the third district, isn't it just that they are planning to defeat the boss in the TV debate?

"Let's go at our pace. I've been a little busy these two days. You all have worked hard!" Lu Ming waved his hand.

Murong Xue had no choice but to run for a member of the council. In terms of the importance of the boss's agenda, she was not the first one. How can there be any reason for this?

But nature and the campaign officials bowed together and sent the boss away.

……

On the desk, in front of Lu Ming, there are two photos.

They are all half-length photos, wearing the white shirts of servants that are common in rich families. A male servant and a maid look to be in their 30s.

On the photo of the male servant, "Zhao Si" is written, and on the photo of the maid, "Sister-in-law Gao".

On the desk, the huge shadow was the reflection of Formosa's body under the light.

"Master, I've sorted it out in the past few days, and I also checked the details of all the servants in the Gao family. I think they are the most suspicious."

"Sister-in-law Gao I think is the most suspicious. She is Gao Yulong's wet nurse. Gao Yulong was brought up by her. She once had a son who was the same age as Gao Yulong, but most of her milk was given to Gao Yulong. Therefore, my son has been very weak since he was a child, and he died suddenly four years ago, at the age of five. At that time, when Gao Yulong was in Gao Depei's hometown, because of Gao Depei, he always wanted his son to endure hardships and stand hard work. , when I was young, I often called Mrs. Gao and took him to the countryside, which is Mrs. Gao's hometown."

Lu Ming nodded and listened.

Formosa pointed to Zhao Si again, "I was originally a bricklayer who repaired houses for the Gao family, but son, I am studying at Marfa University. Young master, you should know that Marfa tuition fees are very high because of the low grades. The school's brand is considered second-rate and top-notch in Donghai, and Zhao Si's son has an apartment outside the university and lives very well, so I feel a little strange."

"It stands to reason that even if Gao Yulong did those things, at the very least, his father should not have known about it before. Otherwise, there would always be some abnormal changes in his education, but none of these, so if his father didn't know, If Zhao Si is really helping him, Gao Yulong is only nine years old, how can he have money to repay him, or reward Zhao Si?"

"Master, I'm going to go to Xihuang for a walk. Mrs. Gao's hometown is in Xihuang."

Xihuang is one of the satellite towns in the East China Sea.

Lu Ming nodded: "That's right." In a few days, after finding out all these things, I'm afraid that Fumosi's special status also has a bonus.

"At Zhao Si's place, I arranged for someone to get close to Zhao Si's son, to see if we can get anything out of it."

Lu Ming nodded.

Formos smiled at this time, "That's right, I need to pay more for the informant, young master, you have to solve it. The Liuying I chose is very beautiful, and the asking price is not low, but I like her very much. She knows how to talk, and if it is really useful, I think she can definitely play the boy of the Zhao family, and she is willing to be a witness."

Lu Ming waved his hand, "You can check the news, but if it involves evidence that may appear in court, then whether the other party is willing to testify in court in the future, our informants are not involved in these, let alone interfere or instigate, those of you at the Federal Bureau of Statistics Some methods are not applicable here and need to be changed. As for the funds, I will tell Minister Liu to give you an additional amount for the investigation department."

"Okay! I understand!" Fu Mo thought for a while, and then said: "Stuart's murder case seems simple, and he might be framed, right? But it's quite difficult to clear him of the suspicion."

Lu Ming nodded. Indeed, it seems very suspicious, but in fact, unless the real culprit is found, otherwise, based on the current evidence, it can only be said that the man was killed by Stuart. If there are no new clues for a long time, he can only be prosecuted Yes, as a prosecutor myself, the same will be true.

What's more, to be honest, I am willing to believe him. The former nobleman, Pamela's father, should not be a murderer.

But who knows what is going on in this world?
"The clues you are looking for may be able to help him, if he is really innocent." Lu Ming smiled: "Okay, you go to work, you have worked hard."

With Formos, I really feel that I am much more relaxed. In the past, I probably had to do these things myself to find out clearly.

Standing up, looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows, the sky was getting dark and the street lights were already on.

On the other side of the gate, there are trucks coming in and out, moving down a lot of tables, chairs and benches, and a lot of people, moving into this building.

It is already in the process of merging with Liu Hanxuan's firm, and in two days, the lawyers from Liu Hanxuan's firm will officially come to work here.

The day after tomorrow, I will also cut the ribbon with Liu Hanxuan to announce the establishment of the new firm.

Of course, there are also two former senior partners of Liu Hanxuan who have decided to terminate the contract because they couldn't agree on the treatment and were given too little equity and were dissatisfied.

There was a light knock on the office door.

Lu Ming responded, the door was pushed open slightly, and it was Tie Xiaojia who was poking around.

His second apprentice, nicknamed Iron Pao, was introduced by Fourth Brother Wen.

"Xiao Jia, come in!" Lu Ming smiled.

These three apprentices are in a free-range state, especially recently, I haven't seen them for a long time, even though they are in the west side of Liberty Building.

"Master, do you have time today? We would like to treat you to dinner." Tie Xiaojia said, sticking out his tongue, probably feeling that his request was too much, master, too busy.

"Forget about eating!" Lu Ming waved his hand, "That's it. From now on, every week, write me your experience in handling the case, and I will give a comment. Every month, I think of a case. The three of you will work on it." In the moot court, I will go to the scene to be the referee."

"Okay!" Tie Xiaojia was overjoyed immediately, "Long live Master!" It seemed that he was really happy.

Lu Ming thought for a while, "Oh, I have a case right now. If any of you three don't have a case, you can come and help me."

"Xiao'e and I have no case!" Tie Xiaojia hardly thought about it.

Lu Ming shook his head: "Just bully Tsinghua, and hand over the case at hand to him, right?"

Tie Xiaojia stuck out her tongue.

"Come here, all three of you. I'll tell Da'an that the case you're dealing with is to be handled by someone else."

"Okay, I'll tell Xiao'e right now!" Before closing the door, Tie Xiaojia whispered, "Long live master! Master is the best!" Then he closed the door and went away like the wind.

Lu Ming smiled and looked at the file on the table. This case should be a good exercise for them.

Of course, they are just participating, giving opinions based on existing evidence, and have no right to investigate anything.

The phone rang, and it was the operator at the service desk of the switchboard, with a sweet voice, "Boss, Councilor Gao Depei's call, I said are you there?"

The secretary's office outside Lu Ming's office was empty, and there had been no suitable candidates. At the beginning, Murong Xue supported Murong Xue for a while, but after the election was on track, she naturally focused her energy on the campaign office.

The secretary position has been left vacant.

Therefore, if someone calls the extension number of Lu Ming's office, the switchboard service will get stuck.

In addition, there is a direct line in the office. If you know the direct number, Lu Ming will naturally answer the call.

After thinking about it, Lu Ming hummed, "Come in."

Soon, Gao Depei's sonorous voice came from the microphone, "Commissioner Lu, do you have time tonight? Shall we get together?"

Lu Ming smiled: "Sorry, Speaker Gao, I have an appointment tonight!"

In fact, it was already getting late outside, and there was no sincerity in making an appointment at this time, and I did have an appointment at night, and I wanted to go home for dinner to celebrate Bisi's eighth birthday.

"No, I'm here, Mr. Bucklow is here, why don't you come?" Gao Depei said drunkenly.

Listen, it's in a nightclub, it's quite noisy, and there are women's delicate voices, probably by now in the afternoon.

Faintly heard a voice, "Tell him, if you don't come, don't come in the future!"

The Zhongzhou language is a little blunt, and it sounds like it is not a native of Zhongzhou.

Gao Depei smiled: "Commissioner Lu, Mr. Bucklow invited you warmly!"

Lu Ming pondered for a while, "Okay, I'll stop by and say hello to Mr. Bakero, but I do have an appointment, so let's just sit for a few minutes." Hearing Bakero's voice, he was very young, not like someone in his 60s or [-]s.

"Haha, okay, I'll wait for you!" The moment Gao Depei hung up the phone, someone said, "Does he dare to be disobedient, haha!" But it was not Baqueluo, it was someone else's voice.

Lu Ming smiled, let go of the fingers holding the microphone, and the microphone landed on the fork, trembling slightly.

Still, it's normal for the person on the other side of the line to feel fine.

It is indeed a great honor for an amateur who has not yet run for the Senate to participate in the bureau where the Chief Councilor of Barkero is present.

Gao Depei, it may not even be a malicious show of power, more, it may be a kind of solicitation, let you participate in the gathering of our circle, explaining that if you promise us some conditions, we may accept you, and it is a great compliment. Raise your status.

Should it be to let myself directly give up the election in the third district and give myself a remote constituency like 49?

Lu Ming pondered for a while, then got up and walked outside.
