Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 124 Arrival in Shangcheng! Wu Chengjun is relieved! [Bonus Chapter!]

Xu Liang had no idea what the other person was thinking.

Fortunately, Yang Ruoxi is a polite child; at least she is quite polite when there are outsiders around.

Xu Ze only showed himself at the entrance.

Yang Ruoxi then regained her previous obedient demeanor.

This gave Xu Liang a chance to catch his breath. He quickly got dressed, washed up, and then checked the time.

It was already seven o'clock in the morning.

He asked Yang Ruoxi to book a train for him at nine o'clock in the morning.

With only two hours left, I was too lazy to eat, so I bought a piece of bread and hurried over there.

only.

At the train station.

"So, why are you in my house?"

On the platform waiting for the train to arrive.

Xu Liang stared at the other person expressionlessly.

"Aunt Zhao told me to wake you up, but you were sleeping so soundly that you didn't even wake up when I knocked on the door."

Yang Ruoxi said weakly.

wrong.

Something's definitely not right!
Xu Liang looked the other person up and down with a suspicious gaze.

Are you really Yang Ruoxi?

Why is Yang Ruoxi being so polite?

Different from before.

Yang Ruoxi didn't get angry. Instead, she put on a flattering expression and looked at Xu Liang, saying:

"Um, if I do something wrong, will you fire me?"

Expelled?
Xu Liang's gaze sharpened.

"You blew up my law firm?"

"No."

"You can't sell my law firm, can you?"

"nor."

"You incurred debts outside and used my name? You have to give me some of that money."

"neither."

"What else could it be?"

Xu Liang looked puzzled, and seeing Yang Ruoxi's guilty expression, he himself became guilty as well.

Yang Ruoxi gritted her teeth, feeling that whether she faced the danger or not, she would suffer the consequences anyway, so she simply spoke up:

"Just tell me, will you fire me?"

"That won't happen."

Xu Liang shook his head.

He's free labor, pleasing to the eye, and doesn't need to be paid. No law firm would fire him.

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief, finally regaining some of her energy.

He didn't say anything when he saw her.

Xu Liang didn't press further, but simply glanced at the train tracks in front of him.

"I'm going to the city to see my teacher. What are you going there for?"

He recalled Yang Ruoxi telling him that morning that she was going to Shangcheng, and a look of suspicion appeared on his face.

"I'm going to find my dad."

Yang Ruoxi spoke up.

She thought about it for more than a week and finally concluded that Yang Jing had told her father on her behalf.

It's better to go and see for yourself.

"Oh."

Xu Liang nodded, then suddenly remembered something and asked in surprise:
"Didn't you say before that your dad would be home soon?"

He remembered that a few months ago, Yang Ruoxi said that her father didn't have time to play after he came home, which is why she often went to his place.

"Oh."

Yang Ruoxi replied, "Plans can't keep up with changes. Haven't a few cases come up in Hanhai City?"

"He works for the Supreme Court, so how could he possibly take a day off after a case like this? That's why he missed those few days of holiday, and he'll have to wait until Chinese New Year for his next holiday."

Ok.

If no major cases occur during the Lunar New Year, then theoretically, a holiday can be granted.

As for why they didn't move their family to the city center so they wouldn't have to live apart...
It's mainly because of Yang Ruoxi.

The East has a system of avoidance.

Her father works at the Supreme Court, and she wants to be a lawyer, so she cannot appear in the main areas under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.

So he could only return to his hometown, Hanhai City, to become a lawyer.

Fortunately, it's now.

In her previous life, after the establishment of the circuit court, Yang Ruoxi would basically have no way to practice law in China and could only go to a few special places to represent people in court.

The two chatted casually for a while.

a long time.

Accompanied by the roar of steel gears.

The train is coming.

Xu Liang led his men into the train and had breakfast in the sleeper berths.

The trains in 2004 were very, very slow.

These days, trains are often late, so the original plan was to arrive in the city at 8 p.m.

It was forced to be delayed by half an hour.

Ever since.

12 month 4 number.

At 8:30 p.m., the train arrived at the station and the doors opened.
Xu Liang and Yang Ruoxi also stepped into the territory of Shangcheng.

"Whoo~"

"Power is at its very center!"

"As a lawyer, I feel like the air here is sweeter."

Xu Liang took a deep breath, a look of emotion on his face.

"Fool, this place is full of people. You must have gone stupid from inhaling too much carbon dioxide!"

Yang Ruoxi retorted from the side.

After receiving Xu Liang's answer that he wouldn't pursue her 'mistake'.

Yang Ruoxi gradually revealed a hint of arrogance.

Xu Liang:
"Hehe, I still don't know what mistake you made."

Xu Liang stared at the other person expressionlessly, "Don't let me catch you by the tail!"

Yang Ruoxi remained silent, then smiled ingratiatingly.

"I'll carry your luggage!"

"That's not necessary."

Xu Liang refused. This was the other party's father's jurisdiction, and who knew if the other party would pick him up at the train station.

They played around for a while.

The two of them also began to think about serious matters.

I walked out of the bustling platform and into the crowd to the train station entrance.

All of a sudden.

A deafening cacophony suddenly filled my ears.

"Special offer hotel, special offer hotel, only thirty yuan a night!"

"Young man, would you like a ride? It's very cheap, and you can go wherever you want."

"Is anyone going to eat these boxed meals? There are only ten left, once they're gone, they're gone!"

"."

Shouts and calls rang out in my ears. The area in the distance near the train station entrance was packed with people.

There were shouts and calls.

It's cold in Uptown in December.

However, the heat emanating from the crowds somewhat offset the chill.

Xu Liang grabbed Yang Ruoxi's wrist to prevent her from getting lost.

"Follow me."

Yang Ruoxi nodded nervously, letting the other person pull her along.

Xu Liang did not rush to leave the crowd, but went to the owner of the boxed lunches and bought two hot boxed lunches.

After handing one of the portions to Yang Ruoxi, he ate it while saying:

"So, are you going to go straight to your dad or spend the night with me first?"

I was hungry all day.

With boxed lunches available, Yang Ruoxi naturally stuffed her mouth full, her cheeks bulging.

Upon hearing the question, she chewed for a moment, swallowed, and then said:

"No need, I have a house here."

Xu Liang:
Alright, alright, he's just blind to the great man he is!
"How about you spend the night with me?"

Yang Ruoxi asked cautiously, "My house is quite big, and the beds are also very big. There are two beds! And there are electric toys for you to play with."

"Need not."

Xu Liang shook his head.

He had to go to the Consulate General to find Li Yang beforehand, and then go with him to find Wu Chengjun.

Hear the words.

Yang Ruoxi didn't insist.

After the two had eaten and drunk their fill...

Xu Liang drove the other party to their lodgings before heading towards the Consular Section.

The upper town is bustling at night.

The streets are filled with neon lights.

Every street was bustling with people, their heads seemingly more numerous than the ants on the ground.

Half past ten in the evening.

Xu Liang arrived at the Consular Department.

The Consular Department has rooms specifically for foreigners to rest in. Li Yang arranged these rooms for Xu Liang on the train, which saved Xu Liang a lot of time. He was led directly to the hotel by someone else and checked in with his bags.

After entering the room, Xu Liang quickly ate a bite and washed up.

At this moment, the fatigue from a whole day on the train swept over me, and I soon fell asleep.

12 month 5 number.

Half past eight in the morning.

“Tuk-tuk-tuk~”

There was a knock on the door.

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang, who was getting dressed, got up and walked towards the door, casually saying:

"coming!"

Finished.

He extended his arm from his sleeve and then opened the door in front of him.

"Squeak~"

The door opened, and Li Yang appeared, carrying breakfast.

"Junior brother, have you eaten?"

Li Yang raised an eyebrow, lifted the steamed dumplings in his hand, and said:

"Eat something?"

Xu Liang didn't mince words.

The other person is more than ten years older than me, a real elder, and we have a deep relationship, so there's no need to be polite.

The two quickly finished breakfast, washed up, and then left the Consular Section.

A car was parked in front of the Consular Section. Li Yang opened the door and got in.

"You've arrived a bit early, and none of your fellow disciples are here to keep you company. But I happen to have the day off today, so I'll accompany you for a walk."

Xu Liang also got into the passenger seat, watching Li Yang reverse and then step on the gas to head towards Shangcheng University, and said jokingly:

"Senior brother, you're not doing so well."

"Why do I have to drive myself?"

Li Yang was not annoyed upon hearing this.

He smiled and scolded:

"You're such a rascal."

He paused, a look of emotion on his face.

"However, it will be soon. After this trip to Elephant Kingdom, I won't need to drive anymore."

The Consular Department handled the Xiangguo matter well, and even helped the supervisory team find the real culprit.
It can be said that all the credit belongs to him.

With Wu Chengjun and his senior brother backing him, his position should definitely be promoted after this.

At around thirty-five years old, in the prime of life, to have already reached this position is enough to be called an outstanding person!
"Thank you so much, junior brother. Otherwise, it might have dragged on for another year or two."

A smile appeared on Li Yang's face.

Others may not know, but doesn't he know how that method came about?

If it weren't for Xu Liang's phone call, I'd probably still be being pestered by Nata!
"We're all fellow disciples, it's just a small favor."

Xu Liang smiled and said that, but the other person's next sentence immediately made Xu Liang's expression freeze.

"Speaking of which, I was hoping to learn more from the teachers when we went back to school together this time."

Li Yang turned the steering wheel, a look of emotion on his face.

"Teachers are getting more and more eccentric as they get older!"

"You can be taught something like this and even master it. Sigh, I still have a lot to learn."

Xu Liang:
"Haha, then maybe this is what they mean by 'having an elder in the family is like having a treasure.'"

Xu Liang said awkwardly.

Having finished speaking, he didn't intend to continue the conversation on this topic and reached out his hand to remind her:
"We've arrived at Uptown University!"

Li Yang nodded and parked the car in a parking space.

Then, the two got out of the car.

They were both graduates of Uptown University.

Xu Liang was studying here a year ago, so naturally he wouldn't forget the architectural structure.

Following the scenes from their memories, the two moved between the floors.

Not long after.

It stopped at the doorway.

Xu Liang reached out and clenched his fist to strike it.

“Tuk-tuk-tuk~”

Inside the door, a voice that was both strange and familiar drifted in.

"Come in."

Xu Liang pushed the door open.
