Who Made Him a Lawyer?

Chapter 466: Chapter 346: Two Dummies

"Lv Xiong is inside, right."

Chen Changchun moved his gaze to the interrogation room, then stepped forward and opened the door.

"I’ll notify him."

With that said, there was a creak as the interrogation room door opened, and Chen Changchun stepped in.

Inside, in the room separated by glass, two officers were initially preparing to take Lv Xiong back to the holding room but froze upon seeing Chen Changchun come in.

"Hold on, I need to speak with the suspect about something."

Chen Changchun said casually.

Upon hearing this, the two officers immediately let go and stood respectfully to the side.

Chen Changchun fixed his gaze on Lv Xiong, paused, then spoke:

"Your case has been filed, Hanhai City Intermediate Court is handling it, the first trial will be on September 10th, be prepared."

Upon hearing the commotion.

Lv Xiong’s face showed confusion, then after understanding, his gaze dimmed.

He didn’t know much about case filing, but he understood the word "court."

What is a court?

It’s a place that represents judgment!!!

In other words... as soon as he gets to the court, he will face judgment, either imprisoned, executed, or sentenced to life.

Of course, he could pray for the judge to be lenient.

But... the four words "shooting and killing someone," combined like this, seem like a heavy hammer, shattering any possibility of leniency!

The gun ban hasn’t been out for many years, now the whole country is busy collecting firearms, and at this time a hunter emerges using a gun to kill a child, it looks like a troublemaker who needs a severe sentence!

"September 10th... mm... okay, I understand."

Lv Xiong lowered his head, looking at his handcuffed hands, his face showing bitterness.

Perhaps he also didn’t understand why just going out to hunt for food led to facing death.

"Be prepared tonight."

Chen Changchun stood up, showing a sigh on his face, then said:

"Tomorrow morning someone will take you to the detention center, don’t stress too much, it’s all part of the procedure."

With that, he sighed, then turned and left.

Detectives can be quite emotional.

For many heinous crimes, like the previous body dumping case involving Duan Feipeng, the entire police station couldn’t stand him and wished they could beat him up on the spot.

But towards Lv Xiong... to be honest, it’s hard to say there’s any dislike.

He was a soldier in his early years, and those who served in that era likely went to the battlefield, so his thoughts were definitely beyond reproach, and using a gun was only for hunting...

However, if you say sympathy... that’s not it either, after all, a child died just like that, leaving Liang Yu as the lonely one, she is more deserving of sympathy.

So....

"Make sure he eats well tonight."

Chen Changchun walked out of the interrogation room, and instructed Liu Jin.

"Alright."

Liu Jin nodded, indicating he understood.

"Tsk, never thought Captain Chen could show a soft side, I always thought he was a stern detective."

Xu Liang teased from the side.

Usually in a detective squad, they’re all eager to feed suspects just cabbage and buns, not even wanting to add salt, to prevent suspects from having the strength to escape.

But here Chen Changchun was specifically instructing to give better food, like a last meal.

"Get out of here, I’m just following procedure!"

Chen Changchun cursed, feeling uncomfortable being called soft-hearted by Xu Liang, as if a man had licked him.

He shivered.

"Alright, communicate more with the prosecutor’s office."

"Maybe Liang Yu’s case will be handed to you, I’m going to get busy."

After speaking, Chen Changchun left as if escaping.

Xu Liang smiled wryly but didn’t stay longer either.

"Let’s go."

He took Su Yu and Yang Ruoxi slowly out of the police station.

As they walked out.

The three of them saw Liang Yu, her thin figure standing by the road, appearing extremely desolate, with no emotions seen on her.

"Lost father in childhood, lost mother in youth, lost husband in midlife, and in her later years, her son is gone...."

Looking at her lonely back, Xu Liang sighed.

Su Yu and Yang Ruoxi, behind him, didn’t know what to say, just stayed quiet, with complex emotions in their eyes, clearly touched.

But if revenge means having the law sentence Lv Xiong to death....

Recalling Lv Xiong’s image, their hearts grew heavier.

Until...

"A couple of fools."

Xu Liang laughed, reaching out to rub Su Yu’s head.

Beside him, Yang Ruoxi’s eyes turned resentful, staring at his gaze like a cold wind, making Xu Liang feel a chill on his behind.

He turned back, seeing Yang Ruoxi’s odd emotions, thought for a moment, then reached out to rub her head.

Yang Ruoxi felt balanced.

"Alright, don’t be so sentimental, being a lawyer, this is most avoided."

"Seven o’clock in the evening, it’s getting late, let’s not return to Qingshi City, stay in Hanhai for the night."

As he spoke, Xu Liang withdrew his hand and yawned, catching a whiff of refreshing shampoo fragrance that tickled his nose.

He couldn’t be bothered to figure out whose scent it was.

He simply got into the car parked by the roadside and drove towards Hongfu District with the two of them.

Xu Liang wasn’t someone who was particularly fond of home.

But with the situation involving Liang Yu... and being currently in Hanhai City, he decided to head home to see what’s going on.

Around 7:20 in the evening.

"Knock knock knock~"

A knocking sound echoed in the hallway of the fourth floor of Hongfu District.

"Coming, coming!"

A clear voice sounded, and then the door slowly opened.

Through the crack appeared a pair of eyes, which lit up when they saw who was outside.

"Brother Xian! Sister Yang!?"

His cousin Xu Ze opened the door with surprise, looking at Xu Liang, Yang Ruoxi, and Su Yu standing outside.

Looking at Xu Ze, Xu Liang showed a slight smile, bent down, and rubbed his cousin’s head.

"Hmm, not bad, you’ve grown taller in a few months."

As he spoke, a white figure wobbled into view.

This was, surprisingly...

A white dog.

"Bean Bun? Bean Bun has grown this big?" Xu Liang raised an eyebrow.

He squatted down, looking at the little dog with a delayed reaction, and his face was full of curiosity.

In the few months he hadn’t seen it, Bean Bun had grown a bit bigger.

But its intelligence hadn’t improved much, as it paused on the spot, staring blankly at Xu Liang.

Hearing the commotion here.

Zhao Ying and Xu Fuqiang also stood up from the sofa, turning their heads to look this way.

When they saw Xu Liang had returned home, their eyes lit up.

Seeing the beautiful Yang Ruoxi behind him, their eyes lit up even more.

However, upon seeing Su Yu... they were stunned.

"Wh... why is there another girl!?"

The old couple exchanged glances, both seeing confusion in each other’s eyes, but they quickly went forward to greet them.

Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu were a bit reserved.

But it didn’t take long for them to feel the old couple were genuine, allowing them to relax a bit.

As for Xu Ze, he was unusually spared from a scolding tonight.

For this regular event, not witnessing it upon returning home left Xu Liang a bit disappointed.

There weren’t many spare rooms in the house. Around 9 p.m., the two women bid farewell to the Xu Fuqiang couple and returned to Yang Ruoxi’s home.

Before leaving.

Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu were quite impressed by the dog named Bean Bun.

After all, dogs that eat with their bottoms are rare. It wasn’t until Xu Liang told them the dog was mentally challenged that they understood.

Even though Xu Ze insisted Bean Bun wasn’t mentally challenged, it was clear the two women didn’t buy it.

...

At night.

Half past ten.

"Hallucination, shooting, red rashes, and skin itching...."

Xu Liang, in his pajamas, sat at his desk in his room.

Even though he hadn’t been back for months, the room was still clean and tidy, obviously because Zhao Ying regularly cleaned.

But at this moment, his mind was clearly elsewhere.

"Unable to confirm if it was self-inflicted, the crime scene involved long-distance shooting, leaving no traces...."

Xu Liang recorded everything he learned in the afternoon in his notebook, continuously pondering over it.

Lv Xiong’s case was too strange, so strange that even with such a transparent case, he instinctively continued to think it over.

"If we dismiss the shooting and only look at hallucinations, red rashes, and skin itching...."

Xu Liang’s thoughts were momentarily blurred, his brow furrowed as if he had thought of something.

"Perhaps..."

"The killer isn’t Lv Xiong!?"

As soon as he said this, Xu Liang was shocked internally.

Why?

Because, if the killer wasn’t Lv Xiong, it means that in the secluded mountains of Sanma Village, there’s still...

A second gun!

"I should give it a try!"

Xu Liang’s eyes flashed with resolve, without a moment of hesitation, he called Yang Ruoxi.

On the other end of the line, he could hear water flowing and the sounds of the two women laughing, sounding as if they were soaking in a bath together.

But Xu Liang couldn’t be bothered with this, he took a deep breath and said solemnly:

"Come to the police station with me tomorrow."

"What are we going to the police station for?" asked the puzzled voice on the other end.

Xu Liang uttered two words.

"Take the case!"
