Extortion case...three million!?

Li Xiang suddenly raised his head, looking at Wu Kang in astonishment, and then he understood.

With Li Erniu dead, Li Youcai and Liu Cui certainly wouldn't let it go; they'd love to fleece Li Xiang.

Assigning him this task now is also a way to let him lay low.

You might even be able to accomplish a great feat on the side!

but......

"Zhang Hu?"

Li Xiang suddenly felt that his expression was a bit strange, and he touched his chin.

"His wife's name is Bai Jie, the one who recently called the police saying his wife was cheating on him?"

"Wasn't he preparing for a divorce hearing in court?"

"Why did he suddenly call the police again, claiming his lover is extorting three million from him?!"

Li Xiang felt something was off.

After all, the contrast between the two situations is too jarring. It should be noted that infidelity is merely a moral issue, and the police cannot do anything about it.

But extortion is different.

Not to mention the completed extortion crime of three million!

But...the other party is about to get a divorce, and he can still be blackmailed for three million by his wife's lover? Are you kidding me?!

"Who knows?"

Wu Kang shook his head and handed over the case information directly to the other party.

"However, the person who called the police is currently in the police station lobby."

"Go verify the information, and then go arrest the person."

Upon hearing this...

Although Li Xiang was still puzzled, he accepted the mission nonetheless.

"Then I'll go do it."

Wu Kang nodded and waved his hand. "Go."

Seeing this, Li Xiang turned and walked towards the hall. Before long, his figure disappeared from Wu Kang's sight.

He composed himself, turned to look at Wang Qiang's thin figure in the detention room, and then sighed deeply.

"Tsk."

"Humans..."

......

......

Inside the police station lobby.

The victim in the extortion case was Zhang Hu, a client who had been cheated on by his wife after consulting with Xu De!

The other person was sitting on a public chair, cursing and swearing.

"Damn it, Attorney Xu really predicted it..."

Of course, despite saying that, he didn't actually look sad; on the contrary, he was extremely excited.

"Three million..."

"I dared to offer it, and you actually dared to accept it!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Hu smiled; he hadn't smiled so refreshedly in a long time!

After he returned, he tried it out a little according to Xu De's method and found that... that adulterer really dared to take his money, even millions of dollars at a time!

Immediately, Zhang Hu, who had been "enlightened" by Xu De, would not let this opportunity pass. He immediately arranged a one-stop process of transferring money, keeping evidence, and reporting to the police!

Just thinking about what's going to happen...

Zhang Hu couldn't suppress the smile playing on his lips.

He was startled awake by a voice beside him and came back to his senses.

"You're Zhang Hu?"

At this moment, Li Xiang returned to the hall, looked at Zhang Hu, and a strange expression appeared on his face.

According to Wu Kang, the other party is indeed a victim, but... why is the victim laughing so happily?

"It's me, it's me."

Zhang Hu composed himself, knowing that the other party was there to take charge of his case.

So he found all the evidence he had prepared in advance.

"Officer, look, this is the phone call I received last night from that adulterer."

"And the extortionate text messages, he sent them all."

Zhang Hu handed the printed papers to Li Xiang.

Li Xiang took it and looked at it, then his expression became a little strange.

The text message was simple: the other party threatened Zhang Hu with a video call to extort money, so Zhang Hu gave it to them. But the problem was...

"Knowing he was a mistress, and that your own wife had cheated on you, you still gave him money!?" Li Xiang asked in surprise.

Zhang Hu's expression shifted, and Xu De's words echoed in his mind. He immediately spoke:

"Sigh, I was quite scared at the time, and even though my wife cheated on me... I still love her."

"Naturally, I don't want that adulterer to spread the video, so..."

"What he said back then... I was terrified! Terrified! Sad! Horrified!"

"There was no other way but to transfer it to him."

Li Xiang: ?

"And now?"

Zhang Hu said, "Oh, now that I've come to my senses, I realize I've been tricked; he's extorting me."

Is this really something we're only discovering now...?

Li Xiang looked the other person up and down suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said:

"Was this evidence prepared by a lawyer?"

He looked down at the documents in his hand.

The evidence presented by the other party is logically consistent and has a sufficient chain of evidence. From the criminal's initiative to send messages to his transfer of money, everything is very well done. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this was done by a professional.

Thinking of this, Li Xiang suddenly paused.

If Wang Qiang could also have such evidence... he might be sentenced much less severely.

"Officer, do you... need a lawyer?"

Zhang Hu asked tentatively.

He has high emotional intelligence and can naturally see through the other person's true feelings.

"Um?"

Li Xiang came to his senses and immediately shook his head.

"It's nothing, I just have a case that I really hope a reliable lawyer can take on."

Zhang Hu suddenly felt a surge of strength and hurriedly said:

"Would you like me to introduce you to someone? I'll tell you, there just happens to be a very capable lawyer hiding in Green Forest City!"

Li Xiang was speechless and shook his head.

"No need, the client has their own ideas."

"The Bar Association will be visiting Jinmao Law Firm in a couple of days..."

Jinmao Law Firm?

Upon hearing the familiar name, Zhang Hu was taken aback, then his eyes lit up and his eyebrows rose.

"Should we find a young lawyer?"

Li Xiang was taken aback.

Seeing his reaction, Zhang Hu continued:

"Is his surname still Xu? Is his name Xu De?!"

Li Xiang was surprised and looked the man up and down.

How did you know?

Zhang Hu gasped, slightly surprised.

"What a coincidence? It really is Attorney Xu!"

He was just testing the waters, who would have thought it would actually be the other party...

Thinking of this, Zhang Hu put on an air of "experienced person" and smiled:

"Haha, that's alright then, officer, don't worry. If Attorney Xu is willing to take the case... I can't guarantee a victory... but I'll definitely get a satisfactory result!"

As he spoke, he smiled.

Li Xiang found it rather strange. Recalling Xu De in his mind, he asked in bewilderment:

"What does that lawyer do? Why are you so enamored with him...?"

Zhang Hu remained silent, but his smile grew even wider.

What did you do?

Xu De made him cut his own salary! He made his father collect his rent! And he said he "loves his wife"!

Today, he even wants to send that adulterer to jail.

This lawyer... really knows how to give you advice!

To be honest, if he wasn't forbidden from doing so, he would have liked to kowtow to Xu De.

As for criminal cases, whether the other party can offer some tricky tactics... Zhang Hu doesn't know.

But he chose to blindly trust!

"Officer, you don't need to worry about that, anyway..."

Zhang Hu laughed, "Attorney Xu definitely has a plan!"

Li Xiang felt increasingly strange.

He looked the other person up and down, and finally shook his head.

"I hope so."

"Alright... How come you're not worried at all, even though you've been blackmailed for three million and your wife is cheating on you?"

Li Xiang looked at the person in front of him with a mixture of amusement and exasperation, and then put away the evidence.

"Let's arrest the person and investigate the case first."

After saying this, Li Xiang led his group outside.

Before long, a man with effeminate features and a bewildered expression was brought back.

After extorting the money, the lover didn't run away. He couldn't understand why Zhang Hu, who was terrified last night, had so decisively called the police this morning...

Seeing this, Zhang Hu laughed heartily, even...

rampant!

As for Li Xiang...

After arresting the man, he turned his head, looked in the direction of Wang Qiang, and sighed.

"Ugh."

This world...

Good people get guns pointed at them.
