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

Chapter 303 The Feast at Hongmen! [Seeking monthly votes!]

wrong.

There is murderous intent!
Xu Liang's eyes flickered, as if he subconsciously sensed something, and then he cautiously probed:
"Go to the Supreme Court?"

"Why did Judge Wang ask me to go to the Supreme Court? I came to Shangcheng to see my teacher; I'm going back to Qingshi City soon."

Back to Qingshi City?

Wang Yao almost laughed out of anger; there was no way the other party could escape involvement in this case!

When Liu Jinshui offered to have Xu Liang act as his lawyer last night, Wang Yao sensed something was wrong.

Upon returning home, Wang Yao whipped Wang Chao like a spinning top. However, the boy was stubborn and insisted that he had only encountered Liu Jinshui on the train, which made Wang Yao even angrier. In the end, he simply stopped asking questions and started whipping him!

Then I thought again, since Yang Ruoxi has come to Shangcheng, there's a 99% chance that Xu Liang has come too.

So Wang Chao was planning to suffer for nothing.

Faced with Xu Liang's statement
"Hehe, you'd better really go back to Qing Shi City later!"

Wang Yao snorted coldly, then took a deep breath, adjusted his attitude, and spoke gently:

"Xiao Xu, it's nothing really, it's just that Mianyang wants to see you at the court."

"But she doesn't know where you live now."

Yang Ruoxi in court?

Xu Liang said calmly, "I'll call Yang Ruoxi later."

Wang Yao:
“Her phone is dead,” Wang Yao said again.

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang fell into deep thought.

"Really?"

"real."

"Judge Wang, you're not lying to me, are you?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yao immediately retorted angrily, "Who in the entire Upper City doesn't know that I, Wang Yao, am the most old-fashioned? How could I possibly lie to you!?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang understood and said, "Okay, I'll go take a look after I finish eating."

"Good good."

Wang Yao felt very gratified, and then he hung up the phone.

'Sigh, this kid is really hard to fool.'

Wang Yao was thinking this to himself, until he turned his head to look around and found that all the judges around him were looking at him with a strange look.

Wang Yao was stunned.

Why are you all looking at me like that!?

His surprised voice echoed throughout the office, reverberating in everyone's ears.

Someone hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke:

"Old Wang, why are you lying to kids now?"

A man nearing sixty, still trying to trick a twenty-something into going to court. This hardly seems like the kind of "old-fashioned" or "refined" person one would associate with!

Even more so.
"What's the situation with your daughter?" someone asked curiously.

"Why did this kid come to court when the little lamb was looking for him?"

Hear the words.

Wang Yao was momentarily speechless. Facing the gossipy expressions of those around him, his face grew increasingly red. Finally, embarrassed and annoyed, he shouted, "Get out! Get out!"

"Can you be serious for once!?"

"The investigation is the most important thing right now; everything else can be put aside!"

Hear this.

The people around them then calmed down, focused their attention, and began to think about the key information in the case.

The entire office fell silent instantly.

"What does that bastard Lao Wang want with you?"

In the courtyard.

Wu Chengjun drank the white porridge in his bowl while looking at Xu Liang with a puzzled expression.

Xu Liang handed the phone to the other person and casually said:

"I don't know, maybe Judge Wang just felt a connection with me and wanted to look at me more."

Finished.

Xu Liang then ate his breakfast in large mouthfuls, until he was about 70% full, and then stood up to leave.

Seeing this, Su Yu became somewhat anxious and suddenly called out to him.

"Brother!"

What did Wang Yao mean by those words?
This wasn't some kind of romantic connection; it was a trap set at Hongmen!

Perhaps after Xu Liang enters the Supreme Court, Wang Yao will give an order and three hundred axemen will appear from both sides and take down the lawyer!

Xu Liang paused briefly, looked back at Su Yu, and then gave her a reassuring look.

Then he stepped out of the courtyard house and slowly headed towards the highest courtyard.

Seeing this, Su Yu's lips moved for a long time, but she didn't know what to say. She could only sigh and show a worried expression on her face.

Wu Chengjun, standing to the side, did not notice anything unusual.

He is still thinking about leading more projects so as not to embarrass his students!

Xu Liang after leaving the courtyard house.

He hailed a taxi by the roadside, gave them his address, and they immediately drove him to the Supreme Court.

The area of ​​Upper Town is not large.

Before long, the taxi came to a smooth stop in front of the Supreme Court.

Xu Liang got out of the car and immediately looked up at the magnificent hall in front of him, built on countless steps, symbolizing the pinnacle of the Eastern Kingdom's judiciary.

He took a deep breath and slowly stepped inside.

As he stepped onto the last step and entered the hall, a voice happened to appear beside him.

"Attorney Xu? Judge Wang sent me here to pick you up. He said Ms. Yang is waiting for you in the deliberation room."

Xu Liang turned his head and saw a female employee accompanying him.

He was looking at me with a polite smile.

He didn't think much about how the other person recognized him, and simply nodded, indicating that the other person should lead the way.

Seeing this, the woman decisively turned around and led Xu Liang into the elevator.

After reaching approximately the sixth floor, the elevator stopped, and the two stepped out of the elevator lobby. The woman turned a few corners.

Finally, he stopped at the door of a meeting room, reached out his hand, and slowly knocked on the door.

“Tuk-tuk-tuk~”

The sound rang out, and then the door was pushed open.

"Squeak~"

The door opened.

Xu Liang stepped inside.

The next second, he saw more than a dozen middle-aged men sitting in the conference room, all of whom turned their gazes toward him.

There was a sense of amusement, scrutiny, doubt, and anger.

It really was a trap!

Xu Liang remained expressionless, preparing to take a step back and leave, but unexpectedly...
"Snapped!"

The people who were waiting on both sides of the door saw Xu Liang come in and promptly closed the door!

He tried to open the door again, but unfortunately...
"Click-clack-click-clack~!"

The group locked the door again, leaving Xu Liang frozen in place.

Seeing this, the judges in the conference room revealed amused smiles, their gazes undisguisedly fixed on Xu Liang.

Xu Liang:
He paused for a moment, then moved closer to Wang Yao.

"Judge Wang, I heard that you and my teacher are old friends of several decades?"

Xu Liang immediately changed his expression, sitting down next to Wang Yao with a smile, the two acting like old friends who hadn't seen each other for years.

Wang Yao hesitated. He had indeed known Wu Chengjun for decades, but before he could speak, Xu Liang continued:
"With a friendship spanning decades, Teacher Wu's students are your students too!"

"Teacher, is there something you need from me?"

After saying that,

Everyone in the conference room, regardless of their mood just now, was stunned.

Goodness, they're trying to build relationships right from the start!

Wang Yao stared blankly at Xu Liang, and after regaining his senses, he quickly said:

"No, what do you mean by 'teacher' or 'not teacher'?!"

Xu Liang said with a smile:

"You and my teacher have known each other for decades, from studying hard to becoming pillars of the judiciary, and you are good friends."

"Not to mention that in the legal profession, those who are successful come first, so it is quite reasonable for me to call you 'teacher'."

Wang Yao was shocked; he had no idea he had such a liar student!

See this.

The judge in the main seat couldn't help but smile and said:

"Hehehe, I think I understand why Attorney Xu has such a high success rate."

He'd never seen anyone so shameless!

The atmosphere in the meeting room relaxed slightly.

The man in the main seat pondered for a moment, then spoke directly:
"Did you read the newspaper this morning?"

Xu Liang said, "I saw it. I just finished reading it a minute before Teacher Wang called me."

Wang Yao, standing to the side, became somewhat anxious and quickly said, "I'm not your teacher!"

But it was obvious that nobody paid any attention to him.

The man simply nodded, then said:
Do you know Liu Jinshui?

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang's eyes narrowed, and he spoke indignantly:
"It's been clearly reported in the newspapers!"

"This person is far too arrogant, insulting another person's corpse and even bringing the body to court to file a case. He is simply trampling on the dignity of the judiciary!"

"It even caused a public outcry!"

Wang Yao: ?
Upon hearing this, everyone present was instantly speechless, as if a fist had been stuffed into their throats.

Even the person in the main seat took a long time to come to their senses, looking at the tough guy in front of them with a slight headache.

The final line:

"Liu Jinshui was acting on someone's orders. Since the other party couldn't file a case in Zhengyang City, someone suggested bringing the body to the city."

Xu Liang exclaimed in shock, "Who is it? This person has some nerve!"

Everyone was speechless for a moment.

“Attorney Xu, the Supreme Court summoned you here because Liu Jinshui suggested to the court that he wanted to find a lawyer to act as his representative,” Wang Yao said helplessly.

For now.

They finally realized that the one who gave Liu Jinshui advice was none other than the shameless scoundrel in front of them!
Unfortunately, they were completely helpless against the other side.
"So you mean Attorney Ren?"

Xu Liang sighed and said, "There's no other way, I'll have to take this case."

Wang Yao and the others, too lazy to watch this kid act like a scoundrel any longer, immediately spoke up:

What are your thoughts on this case?

Do you know anything about it?

They came to find Xu Liang mainly to get some information.

As of now, the information provided by Liu Jinshui is being verified in Shangcheng, but the process is progressing very slowly.

Without him.

Based on the stuff they submitted, they could easily have a whole 'fujoshi' (boy's love) session!

If it is verified, Zhengyang City will suffer, so a slow process is almost inevitable, and there will hardly be any people cooperating.

But the case couldn't wait.

In the short term, they must decide who should have the authority to hear the case!
Is it the local court or the Shangcheng District court?
"A case?"

Xu Liang paused, then fell silent. After a long while, he thought for a moment and then said:
"I don't know much about it."

Before anyone around him could ask, he abruptly changed the subject and continued:

"However, we have a pretty good understanding of Zhengyang City."

"The local people are very tough, and the quality of the police force is uneven. Even I found it very difficult to file a case at the police station, and I failed twice in a row."

That is
The information Liu Jinshui submitted was all true!

In Zhengyang City, Zhu Haoyi practically held absolute power, making it impossible to even file a case.
In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.
