Who Made Him a Lawyer?

Chapter 462: Chapter 344: Case Details!

He accepted the commission and slowly walked toward the exit of the law firm.

Wang Feiyu watched his back, occasionally wanting to say something to stop him, but ultimately kept silent.

As Xu Liang’s figure disappeared... Wang Feiyu suddenly felt somewhat self-mocking.

He was still worrying and being indecisive, while others were already preparing to act swiftly...

Indeed, that’s the difference.

"Ah,"

Wang Feiyu sighed again, shook his head, and returned to the office lobby to busy himself with his own case.

...

"Hanhai City and Yang City..."

Meanwhile, Xu Liang had already constructed part of the case map in his mind.

To the upper right of Hanhai City lay Yang City, which was relatively average in development but still a prefecture-level city with a seaport and a gradually rising economy.

If the responsibility for the case hasn’t been determined yet... It’s highly likely that the location of the incident lies at the border of the two cities, causing the mutual shift of responsibility.

"Never mind, I’ll consult Captain Chen for more information first."

Xu Liang thought honestly, and then walked to the entrance of the law firm.

A white car was parked by the entrance, and he reached out to open the driver’s side door directly.

"Bang!"

The door opened.

Two heads popped out from inside the car.

It was Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu, both women sitting in the car, looking disgruntled at Xu Liang.

Seeing this, Xu Liang paused, raised an eyebrow, and said in surprise, "You’ve reconciled again!?"

The two women exchanged a glance and quickly shifted their gaze away, finally landing it on Xu Liang.

"Where are you going?" Yang Ruoxi was the first to speak, staring intently at Xu Liang.

"Just a small case, I’m going to have a look." Xu Liang replied casually.

"What small case?"

Su Yu followed up the conversation.

Before Xu Liang could answer, Yang Ruoxi spoke again, "I think it’s a major case, possibly a gunshot case!"

Su Yu added, "Why not take us with you?"

Yang Ruoxi continued.

"Do you think we’d drag you down!?"

Xu Liang:...

"So, you two are teaming up against me..."

He was somewhat speechless, then said, "Alright, alright, hop in and buckle up, I’ll drive."

He had initially taken the case to avoid getting involved in the cold war between the two girls, but it seemed the cold war had ended... so taking them along was fine.

As for whether they’d drag him down... that was purely nonsense.

The two had never failed at critical moments, Yang Ruoxi had even gotten up at six in the morning to monitor Zhu Haoyi at one point!

A gunshot case... If they want to be involved, let them be involved.

"Buckle up."

Xu Liang sat in the driver’s seat, gave a reminder, and then stepped on the gas.

"Vroom~!"

The engine suddenly started trembling.

The next second, the car shot onto the highway like an arrow released from a bow.

...

...

Hanhai City.

In the Criminal Investigation Unit.

"How is the suspect now?"

"Still the same, in a daze, but it’s preliminarily determined that they confessed to the murder."

"What about the victim of the case?"

"The body is kept at the police station... The family... the family’s emotions remain extremely volatile, and they have started to resent the police due to the failure to file the case in court, leading to the suspect being unable to be sentenced despite being arrested."

"Ah, such trouble... How are the negotiations between Yang City and the city going?"

"They’re still shifting responsibility between each other."

In the office of the Criminal Investigation Unit of Hongfu District.

The long-unseen Chen Changchun was sitting in the office, smoking a cigarette. The wrinkles on his face revealed a thread of worry as he looked at the files in his hand, his gaze filled with complex emotions.

Hanhai City had a murder case.

No, more accurately, Hanhai City had a victim!

While Yang City had the murder case.

The case was exceedingly vile!

The victim was only thirteen years old, came from a well-off family, and was on a summer camp trip during the holidays, when they got separated from the group during a hiking trip in the deep mountains.

Then, after a ’gunshot’ sounded, the summer camp leader woke from sleep.

The leader, accompanied by locals, headed to the site of the gunshot and finally discovered... the victim’s body!

The victim was shot in the back, slightly to the right, by a bullet that hit the heart directly, causing instant death in that precise heinous spot!

After the incident, the summer camp leader immediately called the police.

According to police investigation...

The bullet inside the victim’s body matched the model used for hunting rifles, prompting the police to immediately focus their attention on the village.

Under the village chief’s guidance, it didn’t take long for them to seize a hunting rifle!

The owner of the hunting rifle did not deny killing the child, yet did not admit to committing the murder.

The jurisdictional aspect of the case delayed the completion of the investigation, leaving it uncleared for court proceedings.

"Ah, what kind of situation is this..."

Chen Changchun rubbed his temples, feeling a toothache.

As a criminal investigator, it’s the first time he finds that the investigation wasn’t difficult, nor the apprehension, but rather the follow-up closure is a headache!

Nearby, Liu Jin was also silent.

Until...

"Captain, there’s someone at the station who claims to know you and wants to have a face-to-face talk."

A female voice sounded at the office door.

Chen Changchun turned his head and saw a female officer standing at the doorway.

"An acquaintance?" Chen Changchun showed a slight surprise and, after pondering for a moment, said:

"What are the traits?"

The policewoman thought for a moment and said, "He’s pretty young, looks to be in his twenties, and...."

Before she finished speaking, Chen Changchun’s eyes lit up, immediately recognizing the person and hurriedly said:

"Let him in!!!"

The female officer was slightly surprised.

It was her first time seeing Chen Changchun so agitated.

Knowing that he’s almost ready to be promoted to the municipal level by the end of the year, soon able to take the director’s position, naturally, he’s expected to be more composed.

But here, facing a youngster nearly as young as herself...

The female officer was curious but said nothing, nodding instead.

Then she walked to the lobby, softly speaking to the person sitting in the chair waiting:

"Captain Chen has agreed."

After these words, she curiously examined the man in front of her, Xu Liang.

The first impression was... handsome, very handsome!

Good physique, and the way he wore his suit carried a distinct aura, wearing gold-rimmed glasses that seemed criminally charming...

The female officer’s eyes brightened, but the next second, a girl suddenly appeared before her, blocking her view of Xu Liang, looking at her expressionlessly.

Female officer:...

She blushed slightly and quickly led the group into Chen Changchun’s office.

Near the office door, the policewoman opened it directly and said:

"Captain, the person is here."

Upon hearing this.

Chen Changchun inside showed a hint of joy, looked up, and saw Xu Liang appear at the entrance.

"Ha, I knew it was you, kid!"

Chen Changchun stood up, laughing as he walked, reaching out his hand to pat Xu Liang on the chest.

Since the Qi Tao case, Xu Liang had been forced to deal with the Blue Shield Law Firm in Qingshi City, then took the opportunity to establish himself there.

From then until now, it’s been half a year since he last saw Xu Liang.

"Captain Chen, long time no see."

Xu Liang smiled and then turned to Liu Jin beside him, "And Captain Liu, months have passed, and you still look the same."

With these words.

Liu Jin responded with a bitter smile.

"Still look the same" he thought, considering the recent troubles that plagued the unit.

"Alright, kid, you never come without a good reason, no need for formalities."

Chen Changchun glanced at the female officer at the door, and she knowingly withdrew.

Then, they sat down in the office.

"Your visit to Hanhai City... What’s the reason? Taking a case? Visiting relatives?"

Chen Changchun’s face showed curiosity.

Xu Liang paused and replied, "Came to understand a case."

It really is a case!?

For ordinary divorce or financial cases, Xu Liang surely wouldn’t bother, so it must be...

"A criminal case?"

Chen Changchun squinted his eyes, imagining the case that had troubled the two cities lately.

"Isn’t it a gunshot case..."

Upon hearing this.

Xu Liang laughed, indeed, the case was under Chen Changchun’s responsibility, so he nodded immediately.

"Yes, that’s the case!"

It really is a gunshot case!

The next second, Xu Liang continued inquiring:

"Captain Chen, the details of this case...what are they?"
