Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

November 10th.

It's 7 a.m.

Thanh Wu Province, Ngoc Sen City.

Jinmao Law Firm, located on Huoju Street Commercial Street.

Xu De walked out of the law firm's main entrance, crossed the road, and headed straight for the breakfast stall opposite the firm.

The breakfast stall is a porridge shop.

Several tables were scattered on the street, with disposable chopsticks and tissues on them. The stall owner was busy serving customers while sweating profusely beside two steaming baskets filled with white steam.

On one of the tables were some breakfasts, and several people sat around them sharing the food.

It was Lin Yue and Wang Chao, who had come from Lijia Village without even sleeping, along with Wang Mei and her son.

"Da da da..."

Xu De strode over in the morning light, plopped down in the empty seat at the table, and with a flick of his wrist, a thick envelope landed with a thud in front of Wang Chao.

"As agreed beforehand, this is your payment."

"Oh?"

Wang Chao, who had been listlessly eating, immediately raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

He put down the sesame seed cake in his hand, picked up the envelope, opened it, and peeked inside.

Ten brand-new 100-yuan bills were prominently displayed!

"Yo ho!"

Wang Chao raised his eyebrows dramatically, stopped eating, and happily counted the food.

Although there were only ten cards, he kept flipping through them, counting them over and over, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Xu De withdrew his gaze and walked towards the stall owner. He hesitated for a moment when he saw the dazzling array of food, but then only took some cheap pickled vegetables and a bowl of cheap white porridge.

Then he sat down at the table and ate quietly.

Seeing this scene.

Lin Yue suddenly paused. She glanced at the bland porridge and vegetables in Xu De's bowl out of the corner of her eye, hesitated for a moment, then picked up two golden and shiny meat patties with her chopsticks, placed them on the bamboo plate prepared by the shopkeeper, and pushed them in front of him.

Xu De paused and looked up.

"Thank you for last night, my treat today."

Lin Yue turned her head away.

"Otherwise... I'm certain this civil litigation case won't go through."

Even if she won the civil custody case without Xu De, she wouldn't be able to keep the child, although it wouldn't leave a stain on her resume...

But she didn't file a lawsuit just to "beautify" her resume!

"Yes, let's help each other."

Xu De casually remarked that he needed to use the other party's identity to make himself more legitimate, so it could be considered a mutual assistance, with neither of them cheating the other.

Lin Yue, however, didn't pay attention to that, and instead asked:

"Last night...did you give money to Li Li?"

Xu De paused for a moment, then, without denying it, casually chuckled and said, "If a road is impassable, money can make it passable."

"How much?" Lin Yue asked again.

Xu Dedao: "Three thousand four."

He didn't have much money on him; including the money the law firm gave him yesterday, he only had five thousand three hundred yuan in total.

Last night I went all out and paid 3,400 yuan out of my own pocket. After deducting the money I gave to Wang Chao, I don't even have 1,000 yuan left. I still have to pay rent and utilities...

In fact, if the law firm hadn't paid salaries yesterday, he wouldn't have been able to settle Wang Chao's payment!

To be honest, we're really strapped for cash, in a pretty bad situation.

But he's gotten used to it. Back when he was a student, he couldn't even bear to eat a moldy steamed bun, but now he can chew steamed buns and pickled vegetables with gusto.

but.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yue remained silent for a moment, then put her legs together and took out a wallet from her bag.

She reached into her bag, then simply took out all her money and handed it to Xu De.

"Ultimately, this case has had the biggest impact on me... There's no reason for you to pay for it."

"I don't have that much cash on me, just 1,700."

Speaking of which...

Lin Yue paused, then turned to look at Wang Chao beside her.

"Yo yo yo..."

Wang Chao was still happily counting the money in his hand.

A thousand dollars! That's a thousand dollars!

Those lousy law firms wouldn't hire him, saying he lacked professional skills... But who is he? He's Wang Chao! He simply earned a thousand yuan by scaling walls and picking locks!

It's much more lucrative and easier than taking on consulting jobs and getting yelled at!

Just as he was happily counting his money...

Suddenly, a hand descended from the sky and snatched away all one thousand dollars.

Wang Chao was stunned, looking at his empty hands with a look of shock on his face.

"Yo!!!"

In broad daylight, someone actually dared to rob people!

Unfortunately, when he looked up, he met Lin Yue's eyes.

Lin Yue said, "The three thousand yuan you borrowed from me last month should be returned now. You have no use for this thousand yuan, so I'll take it first. I still owe you two thousand."

"Yo!"

Wang Chao's face showed shock.

He looked at his hands in disbelief, then looked up at the envelope in Xu De's hand, which he hadn't even had time to warm up.

Wang Chao fell into deep thought.

Who made money? And who lost money?

Finally, a hint of anger flashed across his face, and he reached out and snatched the envelope back.

"you....."

Lin Yue was about to frown, after all, the other party didn't need the money urgently, and did indeed owe her money and hadn't paid it back.

Unexpectedly, the next second...

"Whoosh!"

Wang Chao pulled out ten banknotes and stuffed them back into Xu De's hand, leaving only the empty envelope that exuded the smell of wood. He stubbornly insisted:

"I only owe you money, not an envelope! This envelope is rightfully mine!"

Xu De was speechless, staring at him for a long time. His usually calm and intelligent mind faltered for once, and finally he said:

"Sophisticated!"

He didn't return the money.

After all, I really need money right now. If I don't have money, I'll have to stay at Jinmao Law Firm to earn enough money before I can leave after this case.

"Thank you, God of Wealth," he said.

Lin Yue's lips curled slightly, and she raised her head a little, but then she came back to her senses and quickly said seriously:

"I am not the True Lord!"

"Yes, Lord Wanshou is right." Xu De nodded.

Just as Lin Yue was about to say something more, a quarrel suddenly broke out beside her.

"Huh? Court adjourned? The case wasn't decided in court this time!?"

She paused for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Yue and Xu De subconsciously turned their heads to look at the people at the tables next to them.

All I saw was...

Several passersby who were eating breakfast and reading the morning paper were staring blankly at the newspaper when their faces suddenly showed surprise.

Those nearby also came over to look, their eyes full of curiosity.

"What hasn't been judged?"

Upon hearing this...

The man, having regained his senses, forgot all about his meal and burst into laughter, pointing at the newspaper and saying:

"Regarding the human trafficking case in Lijia Village!"

"Come quick, look! The morning paper says that yesterday's court hearing didn't result in a sentence for the defendant. The prosecutor is reinvestigating all the evidence!"

All the prosecution's evidence was rejected?

How...did you do that?!

"Let me see! Just a couple of days ago I thought this case was hopeless!"

"How did you do that?"

"Did the presiding judge feel that the defendant was innocent, and that their personal opinion was biased towards the defendant?"

"Bullshit! The morning paper clearly states that some defense lawyer suddenly appeared out of nowhere and rendered both the prosecutor's and the plaintiff's lawyers speechless!"

"What the hell? It can leave even the prosecutor speechless? Let me see!"

Upon hearing this, the others also put down their bowls and quickly gathered around the person reading the newspaper.

Seven or eight people, both acquaintances and strangers, were all gathered together, making it seem very crowded.

"Look, it says so in the title."

The man buying the newspaper pointed excitedly to a headline and began to read:

"[Shocking! Case reversed! In the Lijiacun case, in the First Court of the Lusen City Intermediate People's Court, the defense lawyer argued with the assembled experts for three hours! All of the prosecution's evidence was rejected! The defense lawyer personally pleaded not guilty!]"

"[A surprising angle in the investigation! Over forty people were present at the scene, yet not a single one could prove the defendant committed murder!]"

"【Three hours of eloquent debate with a group of scholars! Who is this young defense lawyer? We refuse to know...】"

"【A miraculous turn of events! One man dominates the entire courtroom! Where do lawyers who turn defense into their personal stage come from!?】"

"[......]"

Titles and manuscripts.

The audience's eyes widened, their breathing quickened slightly, and they read on until the very end...

"One person dominating the entire courtroom debate?!"

Someone asked in surprise.

"Wait, is there hope in the Li Family Village case!?"

At this point, everyone finally realized what was going on.

If the prosecutor is forced to defend himself, doesn't that mean the opposing prosecution's case is also riddled with flaws?

Since the indictment is gone, Wang Qiang is definitely innocent!

In other words...

"Damn it!"

A rough-looking man dressed as a migrant worker, his face red and neck thick, said.

"A not-guilty plea, even overpowering the prosecution...this lawyer is amazing!"

He couldn't read, but just listening to it and imagining it in his mind was enough to get his blood pumping.

While others were still hesitant and dared not take on the case, someone dared to do so, and not only did he take it, he even dared to plead not guilty.

What does it mean to turn the tide?

That's what you call turning the tide!

"Xu De? Never heard of him. Which law firm is he from?"

"I don't know... but after today, this lawyer will be famous. With a case like this, it would be hard for him not to become famous."

"Tsk, this is something not just anyone could do..."

"..."

It's not just breakfast stalls.

Government office buildings, farmers' markets, bus stops, intersections...

In short, wherever people gather and read newspapers, at this moment, everyone is speechless with amazement, exclaiming how wonderful it is, and feeling their blood boiling and their chests soaring with joy.

This moment.

Even if the case hasn't been won yet.

The name Xu De has already become well-known in Green Forest City!

At the breakfast stall.

"Tsk."

Lin Yue glanced at the frenzied crowd next to her, then looked away and turned to Xu De, who was quietly eating by the crowd beside her, as if he were none of her business.

Those reading newspapers nearby were unaware that the people they were discussing were right beside them.

They might even be eating at a roadside stall right behind the other person's back.

"So, Attorney Xu, do you have any acceptance speech?" Lin Yue unconsciously smiled.

Xu De smiled, seemingly unperturbed. Seeing that everyone had finished eating, he wiped his mouth and then said:

"Let's go."

"Go to court and give the prosecutors something to do!"

After speaking...

Xu De stood up and walked outside first.

Looking at his back.

Lin Yue chuckled, shook her head, put on her clothes, and followed the others.

And just as the group hailed a taxi and got in...

roadside.

One person suddenly froze.

"Oh! Attorney Xu, what a coincidence, you're late too..."

Li, the cashier, was late for work when she saw Xu De on the roadside. She was about to greet him with a smile, but before she could finish speaking, Xu De got into a taxi and disappeared from sight.

The words that Li, the cashier, hadn't finished saying suddenly stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter them.

She was the accountant and cashier at Jinmao Law Firm. She was in charge of settling accounts when Zhang Hu settled the accounts in the "divorce case," and her relationship with Xu De was not bad.

"Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Cashier Li watched the other person's departing figure, a puzzled look on her face, just then...

"Heroes emerge from among the young! Heroes truly emerge from among the young!"

"I think all those veteran, top-notch lawyers in Green Forest City have wasted their lives; they're not as good as this young lawyer named Xu De!"

Xu...Xu De?

What happened to Xu De?

Cashier Li paused for a moment.

She looked suspiciously at the group of passersby beside her who were exclaiming in surprise while holding the newspaper, a look of curiosity on her face.

Immediately, he raised his head and focused his gaze on the other person's newspaper. He shouldn't have looked, because once he did...

In an instant.

A look of astonishment instantly crossed Li's face, her mind reeling.

"The lawsuit has been dismissed... dismissed!?"

She knew exactly what kind of case Xu De had taken on.

That case... calling it hellishly difficult would be an understatement!

Let alone new lawyers, even top-notch lawyers can only struggle to argue their case in court.

But what about the shadow I just saw... how come the prosecution is suffering a complete defeat?!

What does it mean when the defense is in a very strong position?

Unfortunately, Li, the cashier, only caught a glimpse of a shadow before being blocked from seeing more. By this time, he was already unable to contain his excitement.

"A newspaper rack? Yes, there's a newspaper rack in the institute!"

A flash of inspiration struck Li, the cashier.

The law firm has a public newspaper rack, and we subscribe to both the morning and evening newspapers, so this particular newspaper must be on the rack!

Thinking of this.

She stopped dawdling and wasting time.

Anxiety urged her to run towards the Jinmao Law Firm across the street.

"Bang!"

The law firm's glass door was pushed open impatiently by the cashier, the loud noise attracting the attention of the still somewhat lazy colleagues who had just arrived at their workstations in the lobby.

Everyone turned to look and saw Cashier Li standing in front of the newspaper rack, picking up a newspaper and reading it, his face full of shock.

"Oh, is Treasurer Li buying a lottery ticket? Why are you looking at the newspaper so eagerly? Did you get the winning numbers right?"

Someone was lounging in a chair, making lazy jokes.

"It wasn't me, it was Xu De."

Cashier Li responded as she read.

"What's wrong with Attorney Xu?"

While the crowd in the hall continued their banter, someone pondered for a moment and then said:

"Is there a problem with Attorney Xu's case?"

"To be honest, this case is quite normal. I heard that the prosecution was led by Hu Guang... Last time I was in court, as the plaintiff's representative, I was afraid to even look at him. His aura was completely unlike that of an ordinary prosecutor, let alone facing him directly as the defendant. It's normal to lose the case."

"That's right, even the director who always thought highly of Lawyer Xu didn't expect to win."

"Xu Luren is still young and has an education. It's only a matter of time before he becomes a gold medalist. But he still has a long way to go before that. These are his stepping stones."

"..."

Listen to what these people are saying.

Cashier Li pulled his head out of the newspaper.

Her face was flushed red as she looked at her colleagues who were talking animatedly around her. She seemed to want to say something but couldn't find the right words to describe it.

Xu De still has a long way to go.

It's normal to lose to Hu Guang, who is considered a formidable opponent even by top lawyers.

That's true.

But the problem is...

What did the newspaper say? A lawyer who had just left the beginner village defeated Prosecutor Hu Guang, who was the final boss of the game, with overwhelming force?

Is this really not some kind of fantasy?!

Li, the cashier, looked at the people in the law firm's lobby.

Hearing the commotion around her, her face flushed even more. Finally, she took a deep breath and said in a loud voice:

"This is insane...the court has gone mad!"

"Come quickly and check out the morning paper!!!"
