Who Made Him a Lawyer?

Chapter 397: Chapter 284: Two Unexpected People!

"How can’t they be the same?"

Xu Liang spoke, teasing this silly child, then smiled and said nothing more.

"Go find a reception room to sleep in for now."

"Alright, I’m giving you both the afternoon off... Go buy some daily essentials... I’ll reimburse you."

Their luggage wasn’t much; Su Yu only had a few clothes and documents, and Yang Ruoxi was about the same.

But daily necessities, like toiletries, still need to be bought to complete their supplies.

The two nodded and began to leave.

Su Yu had already thought about what to buy. In fact, on June 1st, upon completing the second trial, Xu Liang decided to settle in Qingshi City, so he knew he had to prepare these essentials.

Therefore, it’s straightforward to buy them now.

Yang Ruoxi frowned at the door, thinking hard for a while but couldn’t decide what to buy. Finally, Su Yu couldn’t stand it anymore.

Su Yu turned slightly towards Yang Ruoxi and said:

"Idiot!"

"Did you not think about these things in advance?"

Yang Ruoxi’s ears turned a bit red, and she mumbled, "I... I had actually considered it quite a bit..."

Seeing her like this, Su Yu couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

"Come with me; buy whatever I buy."

"Okay."

Having said that, Yang Ruoxi followed him.

However... She always felt something was off.

’Clearly, I’m older... And I even have experience running a law firm, plus I followed Xu Liang for half a year learning in advance, so why... why does she feel like Su Yu seems more mature than her?’

Yang Ruoxi always felt her presence was weaker than his, so she straightened her back to appear less lacking in confidence.

But she soon gave up.

No other reason, but the two lumps on her chest were simply too heavy, weighing her down uncomfortably...

As he watched their departing figures, Xu Liang also withdrew his gaze.

"Tsk, they’re still kids."

He sighed a bit.

Then, thinking for a moment, he composed himself, locked the office door, and sat back in his chair.

Xu Liang slowly took out a... leather book from the briefcase!

Xu Liang sat in the chair pondering for hours.

Finally, he pulled out a ballpoint pen, opened the leather book, and began writing ’Sasha’ on the rough pages.

...

[Congratulations on composing the case ’Human Resource Case’...]

[Congratulations on acquiring the skill: ’Yangchun Noodles lv1’]

[Skill description: A bowl of noodles that shine; perhaps it can enhance virility, replenish yin and yang, warm up and improve kidney function!]

[(So hot, what did you put in it? Onions, it’s onion...)]

[Congratulations on gaining the special skill: ’Geological Exploration Expert!’]

[Note: As a litigious person, you need to resolve the client’s unreasonable requests, occasionally handling the opposing lawyer, and if necessary, dealing with the opposing client to win!!!]

[But here’s the problem: with so many people dealt with, how do you dispose of the bodies?]

[An expert in geological exploration will show you which geology can easily make a body disappear, and how evidence can vanish!]

"Hmm... A geological exploration expert with no culinary skills is not a good lawyer?"

Xu Liang said thoughtfully, looking at the words appearing on the leather book.

The skill seemed somewhat useless, but if used well... it could earn him a lot of money!

Without saying more, Xu Liang could definitely make a name for himself in tomb raiding!

As for the other skill...

[Yangchun Noodles: Has effects to warm the stomach and nourish the kidneys...]

Xu Liang’s eyes became serious.

Indeed, a chef is the ultimate truth!

Whatever Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, whatever geological exploration, they’re all weak compared to this skill!

This is the real divine skill!

"Well, it’s like unlocking a skill, and unlocking a golden-quality one at that." Xu Liang said contentedly, accepting all the skills.

Then, he took one last look at his status panel.

[Name: Xu Liang]

[Age: 24 years old]

[Special Skills: ’Martial Arts Master’ ’Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart’ ’Master of Traceology’ ’Master of Grappling’ ’One Thousand and One Nights’ ’Geological Exploration Expert’]

Looking at the full list of skills, Xu Liang showed a slight smile on his face.

It felt like the inflation of stats in a game!

In decades, maybe he could ascend physically and achieve real ’physical mediation’!

Composing himself.

Xu Liang turned his head to look out the window.

At this point, the sky was getting dark, the sun had set, and night was falling.

Xu Liang stood up, stretched his muscles a bit, and felt comfortable as his bones made ’cracking’ sounds. He then pushed open the door and walked out of the office.

At this time, there weren’t many people at the law firm, and it wasn’t working hours, so it seemed somewhat quiet.

But...

Not long after, as Xu Liang walked down, a sound gradually reached his ears.

"Wait for me, wait for me!"

Xu Liang stood on the second-floor balcony, watching Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu holding things entering the firm.

Yang Ruoxi held a pile of things, even blocking her view, urgently calling for Su Yu’s help.

Su Yu was somewhat helpless, "I already told you buying these things is useless, and it’s going to be more trouble when moving later, why don’t you listen..."

"They’re all useful!"

Yang Ruoxi rebutted.

Su Yu, unable to argue further, reached out to take some of it to help her.

Upon taking and looking inside, he saw some women’s underwear and clothes, the same size as his own, as well as some clothes of the same size as Xu Liang...

Su Yu paused briefly, then silently packed them up.

Just as Xu Liang was preparing to go downstairs...

Several familiar figures suddenly walked out from the lobby on the first floor, and then took over items, alleviating the pressure on the two girls considerably.

These people are...

Sun Zhongmin, Zhao Shui, and Qi Tao!

Xu Liang paused, then instantly became perplexed.

He quickly turned around and headed towards the first floor, just happening to meet the group carrying items up to the first floor.

"Mr. Sun, why have you come to Qingshi City!?"

Xu Liang showed a slight smile on his face, casually taking over the items in the other’s hands.

Upon hearing this.

Sun Zhongmin and Zhao Shui’s faces flushed slightly, their mouths stuck, feeling quite awkward.

Clearly, they had already prepared their words in their minds before coming, but actually meeting face-to-face made them feel embarrassed.

After a while, Sun Zhongmin deeply inhaled and said honestly:

"Lawyer Xu, I received the compensation..."

Who are these two?

They were the victims from Huangyan Village, especially Sun Zhongmin, who was Xu Liang’s client!

Sun Zhongmin had already given up on pursuing the truth, but was persistently dragged by Xu Liang, solving the case from another perspective, even unearthing the steel case!

Sun Zhongmin and Zhao Shui, who suffered greatly, received corresponding compensation in early June.

Their plans remained unchanged.

With the money, they intended to settle near the law firm, having each other as company would not be lonely.

But...

They just went to Hanhai City planning to meet Xu Liang, only to hear from Xia Yao that the firm was moving!

After repeatedly inquiring, Xia Yao helped them contact Wang Feiyu who was handling a case for Qi Tao, thus Sun Zhongmin and Zhao Shui took a train to Qingshi City.

"Then I brought the three to the firm."

At this time, a sweaty figure stood at the door, supporting his waist and panting.

That person was Wang Feiyu.

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang raised an eyebrow and asked: "The case is resolved?"

Wang Feiyu grinned, showing a smile, straightening his waist.

"Solved!"

He quickly resolved Zhao Hailong’s case, sentenced to death in the first trial, with no chance for an appeal or second trial.

After resolution, Qi Tao received the long-prepared compensation on the spot.

Subsequently, Qi Tao faced two choices.

First, return to Jiang City, the place of sorrow.

Second, leave Jiang City.

Qi Tao chose the second option, but where to go after leaving Jiang City? Just happened to meet Sun Zhongmin, thus the three came to the firm here.

"Lawyer Xu, do you need a security guard?"

Sun Zhongmin spoke up.

He doesn’t have much knowledge, and although his wife came along, she also lacks skills. Fortunately, the compensation is generous enough, ensuring their basic living needs.

But still feels something lacking, if he could be a security guard... life might seem somewhat fulfilling...

"A security guard..."

Xu Liang fell into thought.

The firm is bound to grow, even if it moves to Upper City in the future, it can’t neglect its foundation in Qingshi City.

So...

"I have considered it, if Mr. Sun is willing..." Xu Liang said.

Choosing someone trustworthy is better than randomly hiring an old man.

"I am willing!"

Sun Zhongmin said joyfully, while Qi Tao and Zhao Shui also looked eagerly at Xu Liang.

Xu Liang decided to accept them all, considering it wouldn’t cost much.

As for uniforms and IDs...

"Feiyu, you take care of it, I have some business to fly to Zhengyang City tomorrow."

Xu Liang said to Wang Feiyu in the distance.

Upon hearing this, Wang Feiyu paused, stood up straight, wiped his sweat, and asked puzzledly:

"Senior, did you receive a new commission?"

Xu Liang nodded.

But as soon as he said this...

"Zhengyang City? That place is not worth going to!"

Zhao Shui, Sun Zhongmin, and Qi Tao all spoke up simultaneously, their faces full of amazement.

The words fell, and the three rushed to speak:

"Indeed, that place... not to exaggerate, is really considered a dangerous region!"

"Heavy industrial area, even more chaotic than Sunzhou, at least in Sunzhou whatever is done must be sneaky..."

"I’ve been there for mining before, it’s really a dark place, too dark, I ran after just three months, if not, my life might’ve been left there!"

"..."

A string of words poured from their mouths.

Evidently, grassroots workers moving around have a clearer understanding of whether a region’s environment is harsh compared to Xu Liang.

But...

Dark?

Only stayed for three months and ran, otherwise the life would be endangered...

What’s the situation?

Xu Liang turned his head, looking at Sun Zhongmin, with curiosity on his face.

"Old Sun, you really went?"

Sun Zhongmin nodded, with lingering fear on his face, he said:

"When I was young and strong, I went to mine."

Really been there...

Xu Liang raised an eyebrow.

"Tell me in detail."
