Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

Without catching the adulterer in the act, there is no way to obtain evidence.

Catching adulterers to obtain evidence will render the evidence invalid.

For the law to be legally binding, the police would have to catch the adulterers, but the police aren't responsible for catching adulterers.

These three rules are so restrictive they practically kill you.

but..

"Don't worry, we can definitely catch them in the act."

Xu De smiled, his tone full of determination.

"Mr. Wang."

"May I ask the extent of the breakdown in your relationship, and when the court has decided to hold the trial?"

Wang Yu paused, then sighed and said, "We'll be separating soon, it'll probably be in the next day or two..."

"The court hearing is scheduled for January 15th."

Today is January 8th, the 15th. There are seven days left to proceed.

Xu De pondered for a moment, then said:

"Would you mind sacrificing a little of your personal reputation for the sake of this case?"

Wang Yu was a little confused.

Sacrifice one's personal reputation?

But it doesn't matter anymore.

"Okay." Wang Yu nodded.

Reputation? You get cuckolded, your partner cheats, and you get your money cut off—what reputation are you going to have left?!

"Okay, you can go home now."

Xu De nodded, indicating that he had a fairly clear understanding of the case.

He stood up, extended his hand to shake hands with Wang Yu, thus establishing a friendly cooperative exchange.

"If you have any questions later, please feel free to contact me... This is my mobile number, please write it down."

He took out the number of his newly purchased phone, wrote it on a piece of paper, and then handed it to the other party.

Wang Yu held the note in his hand, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

So... how is the other party supposed to fight their own case?!

Xu De, with his high emotional intelligence, could see through his concerns and immediately spoke up:

"Rest assured, the best course of action right now is to take no action. We just need to..."

"Wait for the opponent to make the first mistake!"

"Based on my calculations, your wife and lover... will definitely slip up."

That's all I have to say.

Wang Yu suppressed his doubts, remained silent for a moment, and ultimately chose to believe the other party.

Now that things have come to this, he has no way out. He either has to go to court alone and have his assets and children cut off by the other party, or he has to choose to trust the seemingly professional lawyer in front of him.

"Okay, then I'll be going now."

Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said goodbye before heading outside.

Seeing that the other party was about to walk out of the main entrance.

Xu De suddenly spoke up:

"Would it be convenient to tell me your wife's name?"

Wang Yu casually replied, "Yang Chunping."

After saying that, he opened the door and left in a hurry.

Inside the law firm, three lawyers remained lost in thought.

"Yang Chunping...that's...a good name."

Xu De stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and then inwardly praised.

Wang Chao and Lin Yue, standing to one side, looked on with suspicion and couldn't help but ask:

"The police? How could the police help us collect evidence!?"

"Brother Xu, are you mistaken about something?"

Wang Chao said impatiently.

Police evidence collection is indeed useful, but the premise is that they won't let you collect it. If you can't collect it, how can you fight the case?

"Heh heh, if you ask the police to catch someone cheating, they definitely won't go."

Xu De scoffed.

The duties and responsibilities of the police do not include catching adulterers. If you want them to do something, the only way is through "criminal" cases!

Even in ordinary civil cases, they only handle mediation.

But the words came back again.

"Who says that the reason for calling the police must be stated from the perspective of the truth?"

Xu De replied meaningfully:

"You know, only what the police investigate is considered the truth, and before that, there are no restrictions on the reasons for calling the police." No restrictions on the reasons for calling the police?

The reason for calling the police is the reason for dispatching officers. Even if you fabricate a reason that could justify a dispatch, the police won't investigate further if they find it lacks basis. Or...?

In a daze.

Lin Yue suddenly realized something, her eyes filled with disbelief, as if she were looking at a monster.

"Are you trying to persecute a police officer?"

Persecution of police officers?

Upon hearing this, Wang Chao couldn't help but twitch his eye.

The Li Family Village Case: The other side persecuted the prosecutor, who was their adversary.

The 18th case was indiscriminate, leaving no one unpunished—judges, prosecutors, defendants, and all those involved were offended! They thought that was the limit, since the case only involved these people.

but. ..

What do you mean, you don't even spare the police who work like oxen and horses, toiling away every day to investigate?!

"That's where you're wrong."

Xu De expressed his dissatisfaction. Looking at the exquisite features before him, which seemed to want to say something but hesitated, he casually said:

"Besides, True Lord, your skills are already profound."

"Summon two Yellow Turban Warriors to investigate the case for me. Do I really need the police?"

Lin Yue:?

"You're dead!"

"Are you going to summon a bolt of lightning to strike me dead?"

"ⅠⅠ"

"Alright, alright, it's time to go out for dinner."

Lin Yue was about to explode.

Xu De immediately made a move that sounded like he was silencing the other person, saying:

"Lin Zhenjun, take a break this afternoon and take me to recruit senior lawyers. As for the law firm... Wang Chao will be in charge for the time being."

Take a break this afternoon!?

Lin Yue raised an eyebrow, her aroused emotions dissipating, and crossed her arms, humming softly.

"Heh heh, thank you then."

Although I'll need to hire a lawyer, it's still much better than dealing with work.

Wang Chao looked at Xu De with a bitter expression, feeling that the other party was treating him like a donkey.

Actually it is not.

Donkeys aren't as good as Wang Chao!

"Wang Chao, think about this carefully. Attorney Lin's legal reasoning skills are stronger than yours."

"I'm helping you improve your skills through cases. If you improve your skills now, you'll become the 'top lawyer' people talk about in the future!"

Xu De subconsciously painted a rosy picture for Wang Chao.

Wang Chao thought for a moment, then happily swallowed the pancake in three bites.

"Attorney Xu, you're right. I misunderstood you!"

The words were spoken.

The three reached a consensus.

Then they went out and started eating lunch.

After lunch.

Xu De then handed the key to Wang Chao, instructing him to transform into a nuclear-powered donkey and burn his energy throughout the law firm.

He and Lin Yue embarked on the path of recruiting senior lawyers.

2:30 p.m.

"Taoist temple?"

Xu De and Lin Yue stood in front of a Taoist temple. Xu De looked up at the three characters "Baiyun Temple" on the wall and fell into deep thought.

That's right.

Lin Yue brought herself to this Taoist temple!

"Are you serious? Or are you taking me to the Taoist temple to kowtow to your master, the Three Pure Ones, and ask them to send down Yellow Turban warriors to help me?" Xu De looked at Lin Yue with surprise and a strange expression.

"Shut your little mouth!"

Lin Yue rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.

Then she said:

"My parents and I live in a Taoist temple. Haven't you ever wondered why my father chose to live here?"

"The abbot of this Taoist temple is also a legal scholar; he used to be a lawyer, and he is a generation older than my father."

"Later... well, it was also because of the law that he became depressed, so he went into seclusion here. Now, he's probably sixty-four years old."

"By the way, Wang Chao knows him."

"When Chaozi has nothing to do, he comes to the Taoist temple to wander around and annoy the old man."

Upon hearing this, Xu De's face showed a thoughtful expression.

Another case of someone who's gone mad from studying the law...

The path of law is one where no matter which way you go, you'll eventually get a beating.

If you walk the righteous path and practice justice, you'll find that there's absolutely no way to achieve it, and it's incredibly despairing... That kind of despair, where reality and ideals are completely at odds, is enough to make you depressed! If you walk the evil path, then you'll be condemned, and some might even consider it a quick death to drive you away!

"Thank goodness, I stepped on one side."

Xu De breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lin Yue again.

"So he's the senior lawyer you recommended?"

The man in his sixties was indeed experienced... but perhaps a little too experienced.

Although it is true that legal principles become more powerful with age.

but..

If Xu De were to encounter an opposing lawyer in his sixties during a trial, he would not hesitate to employ the "endure the old man" tactic. He was confident that he could outlast his opponent in a five-hour high-intensity trial.

After the trial, there will be no one in the defendant's seat, right?

As for whether the court hearing is mentally and physically demanding...

Don't forget that Zhang Wei is a cautionary tale; the other person fainted after only three hours of endurance!

"What are you thinking!"

Lin Yue felt a little annoyed; she thought the person next to her was indeed a chatterbox, speaking to her in a sarcastic tone.

"Director Li also has several students."

"While I'm not a professor, an academic luminary, or even a gold medalist... I'm definitely a seasoned lawyer!"

While top-tier lawyers are undoubtedly strong, some are actually quacks, created and hyped up by law firms to be their star performers.

Their professionalism... may not necessarily match that of some senior lawyers!

"I see."

"Then I'll go see Host Li."

Xu De suddenly realized what was happening and was about to lift his leg to go inside, but he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Lin Yue behind him.

"Why aren't you leaving?"

Lin Yue was a little shy, her ears were flushed and glistening, and her fingers were pinching the sides of her clothes.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally stammered out:

"If my parents and Abbot Li see me later, could you please not call me... please don't call me that 'True Lord' thing..." Xu De straightened up and corrected them:

"Is that 'Nine Heavens Flying Dragon Jade Face Thunder Essence Universal Transformation Subduing Demons Longevity True Lord'!?"

Lin Yue: ..,

Yes.

Xu De's lips curled into a smile.

"Beg me."

"Please..."

Lin Yue clasped her hands together and begged, lowering her head without any backbone, her fair neck flushed red.

It's obvious that she now deeply regrets the cool things she said to Xu De.

same.

She doesn't want to die either!

It's better to embarrass yourself in front of one person than in front of many.

"Don't worry, I won't reveal it," Xu De replied with a smile.

Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and the two walked into the temple.

7 p.m.

Nanshan District, Lusen City.

"Sigh, why did this happen..."

Programmer Wang Yu finished get off work, looking exhausted, and drove home.

On the road.

As he looked out the car window at the bustling traffic, his thoughts inevitably wandered.

Wang Yu is an honest man, or rather, a normal man.

He disliked going to dimly lit bars, didn't engage in promiscuity, and didn't frequent prostitutes. Even before marriage, he only had one romantic partner. After marriage, he maintained distance from other women.

He worked tirelessly to provide a better life for his wife and children.

In 2003, at the age of 29, he earned a monthly salary of 2,700!

You should know that even a highly skilled lawyer, one who consistently ranks at the top, only earns 3,700 yuan in three months, not even including his out-of-pocket expenses. And even so...

Yet they remain stuck in their current predicament.

Wang Yu couldn't understand what went wrong; he clearly hadn't done anything wrong!

Yet it has still escalated to the point of being completely broken up, with both sides resorting to legal action...

"Squeak~"

In a daze.

The car braked.

Wang Yu came to his senses and realized that he had unknowingly driven the car back to the residential area, where it was now parked in a parking space.

"Phew~"

A tired smile appeared on Wang Yu's face.

He was relatively free today. He took some time at noon to meet with a lawyer, and since he didn't have to work overtime, he could go home and see the kids.

With that thought in mind, he stopped dwelling on his worries and instead opened the door.

"Snapped!"

The car door opened.

Wang Yu unbuckled his seatbelt and pushed the door open.

Not long after.

He took the elevator and soon found himself standing in front of his own door.

"Xiaoyu, Daddy's home. He brought you some yummy food today..."

He was just about to push the door open and go in, however...

"Clang!"

Wang Yu pressed the doorknob twice, but found that the door did not open at all. He paused slightly and frowned.

This is..

It's locked!

Who went? Yang Chunping? No...

Wang Yu threw the snacks he had bought on the ground, pulled out his key, and opened the door.

"Clang!"

The door opened.

"Light rain, light rain!?"

Wang Yu walked around the house, calling out as he went, but still couldn't find anyone.

Immediately.

Wang Yu got a little anxious. He ran out of the house, intending to search around the neighborhood.

However, once outside the building...

The neighbor lady, who was taking a walk outside, saw him and immediately greeted him with a smile:

"Xiao Wang, you're home from get off work?"

"Um."

Wang Yu was anxious and was just about to give a perfunctory answer and leave.

But in a daze, he suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at the old woman, anxiously saying:

"Aunt Liu, have you seen Yang Chunping?!"

Yang Chunping?

"Your wife?"

Aunt Liu thought for a moment and said, "They left at noon, saying they were going out for some kind of beauty treatment."

Going out for beauty treatments and skincare...

Wang Yu's face turned ashen.

When the other party goes to the beauty salon, they often lock the child at home, no matter how many times he has told them before.

There are no children in the house now.

"Did you see the child with her?" Wang Yu asked again.

"without."

Aunt Liu chuckled, then added:

"However, this afternoon a young man took your house key and took Xiaoyu away. I went up and asked him a couple of questions, and he said it was your wife who asked him to take her away, it seems like... you're moving?"

"He took out his phone and made a call to your wife before I let him go."

"Speaking of which, Xiao Wang, are you moving?"

Moving? I'm living alone!

Wang Yu's face was extremely grim.

Sure enough, things had escalated to the point where I was living alone, but... the other party dared to take the child away without even consulting me! And the person who took the child...

Although Wang Yu didn't know who the other person was, it was highly likely to be a lover!

Moreover.

How can you possibly move with just a child?

Even if we've found a place to stay, we'll definitely be staying in a hotel with the kids tonight!

After Aunt Liu left.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

Wang Yu immediately started cursing and kicked the tree trunk beside him.

He paced back and forth for a long time, his mind racing with thoughts.

Caught in the act of adultery? Go catch them in the act!?

Putting aside the fact that I don't know where the other person is, my lawyer just told me that catching them in the act myself is less than a one-in-ten chance of success...

So, should we have the police arrest the adulterers?

How is that possible?!

The police have no obligation to help residents catch adulterers!

Wang Yu was extremely anxious. He pondered for a long time but couldn't come up with a solution, so he didn't act rashly.

After a long while, he took out his phone and dialed a number.

The caller was none other than Attorney Xu from Houde Law Firm!

"Beep beep beep~"

Wang Yu's heart pounded with the anxious dialing sound, which then suddenly stopped a short while later.

"Feed?"

A somewhat muffled voice came from the other end of the phone; it was none other than Xu De's.

The other party seemed to be outside, and the call wasn't very smooth.

But Wang Yu couldn't care less about that at the moment, and he immediately blurted out everything in a panic.

"Attorney Xu, my child..."

After a while.

"So fast?"

A voice came through the phone speaker, sounding somewhat surprised.

Wang Yu's breathing became anxious. "What should I do? Should I just go and ask for the child back?!"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

After a while, a response came suddenly, and the voice came through the phone next to my ear.

"Mr. Wang, go call the police and let them handle this matter."

Call the police?

Hearing this, Wang Yu became even more anxious and blurted out the words without thinking.

"But the police don't arrest adulterers, and besides, she's the child's mother, so there's no reason for it..."

Unexpectedly.

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the person on the other end of the phone.

"Caught in the act?"

"What do you mean by catching someone in adultery?"

All that could be heard on the phone was Xu De's puzzled voice, as if he knew nothing at all.

"Mr. Wang."

"Your child was alone at home when a strange man you didn't know forced his way in and took him away, even deceiving an elderly person..." "This is clearly child abduction!"

It's already dark.

"If you ask me, those two traffickers are definitely planning to rest at the hotel for one night, and then sell the child to another city tomorrow!"

"Call the police immediately! Once they hear about the child abduction, they will definitely come to the hotel to rescue your child!"

Criminal case.

Police generally don't invest much investigative resources in human trafficking cases, but this is in cases spanning at least three years.

And the case of someone who was recently abducted...

The police would love to send all the officers in the district to you!

The entire district's police force was deployed to the hotel to check on the children...

In a daze.

Wang Yu was stunned. His eyes twitched, and he asked hesitantly.

"So... it wasn't catching someone in the act of adultery?"

"What do you mean by catching someone in adultery?"

Xu De's voice came from the speaker.

"This is clearly human trafficking!"

"You'd better call the police right now, or else..."

"The child traffickers will get some rest soon, then they'll take the child and run away from the hotel!!!"
