The waiting room of the laundry temporarily became Lu Ming's office.
When Wang Daan came in, Lu Ming was reading a science and technology book.
"You still like to read these?" Wang Daan looked at the magazine cover in Lu Ming's hand and was stunned.
Lu Ming smiled and pointed to an empty medicine bottle on the table, "I bought this medicine bottle at the drugstore for 5 cents."
"Buy an empty medicine bottle for 5 cents? I don't even want it for free!" Wang Da'an shook his head, "Brother, I can't keep up with your thinking." He added, "Gao Dazhuang said that he wants you to go to his affairs tomorrow. I saw him, he didn’t have time today.”
Lu Ming nodded: "Let's talk about it then."
Wang Da'an sighed, "There's nothing I can do about it, who calls me a second-tier person?"
Gao Dazhuang, named Gao Daotian, is the urban lawyer Liu Laocai hired at a high price, a mid-level defense attorney, also commonly known as the second-level lawyer.
After Lu Ming was sent back by Liu Kexing, he made an appointment with Gao Dazhuang through Wang Daan.
But obviously the opponent's cards are high and it's very staged.
Lu Ming was about to speak when a burst of noise suddenly came from outside. Before anyone could enter the house, the sound waves seemed to be able to lift the roof.
"Lawyer Lu! Lawyer Lu!"
It was Liu Laocai’s fiery high voice.
The door of the laundry was pushed open, and Liu Laocai strode in with an angry look on his face, "Lawyer Lu! Come out!"
Wang Da'an was startled and rushed out to greet him first, saying with a smile: "Director Liu, what's wrong with you? Just calm down."
Liu Laocai stared at Lu Ming, who was strolling out behind Wang Da'an, with eyes like fire: "Lawyer Lu, tell me, is it really what the fourth son said? It was the third son who conspired with that slut to mess with me. ?!”
"What you see with your eyes may not be the truth!" Lu Ming made a gesture, "Director Liu, please come in and talk."
Liu Laocai gritted his teeth and stared at Lu Ming with his small eyes blinking. He finally snorted and followed Lu Ming into the house.
He sat down on the sofa opposite the coffee table, but still said angrily: "You found out, why didn't you tell me immediately?!"
Lu Ming smiled and said, "Okay, now we can officially sign the entrustment agreement!"
Pan Mila came over and placed two copies of the entrustment agreement in front of Lu Ming and Liu Laocai.
"Director Liu, once you sign, I will be your official lawyer." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Okay! That bastard named Gao doesn't know what he's doing. You didn't have to find out something in a day. He's still ignorant. He's just a 250-year-old!" Liu Laocai gritted his teeth and took the hand from Pan Mila. I got the pen and signed it.
Suddenly, he raised his head suspiciously: "Lawyer Lu, why didn't you sign it in the morning?" Then he smiled like an old fox, "Okay, kid, you were unsure at the time, right? Now you think you can win the lawsuit, so you did it." Come on in, you kid, just like me when I was young..." Suddenly, he slammed the table again, "Damn that little bastard, you actually want him to go to jail!"
Seeing him as if he was schizophrenic, Wang Daan couldn't laugh or cry. He sat in the corner and didn't interrupt.
Lu Ming smiled: "Director Liu, I didn't sign a formal agreement with you this morning because, if I want to investigate, if I meet Ms. Deng, I may have a conversation with her. From a certain perspective, some of the contents of the conversation may be The prosecution caught me and accused me of violating the rules, and when I talked to her, if I wasn’t your official lawyer, I wouldn’t have this concern.”
"However, I haven't had the chance to meet Ms. Deng face to face, so it doesn't matter!"
Liu Laocai nodded in understanding, but he seemed to be more and more convinced of the young man in front of him.
Lu Ming added: "Besides, don't be anxious, Mr. Liu. I can only say that this case is not as simple as you think. I still have to figure it out."
Liu Laocai's face immediately filled with anger, "How can he still run away?! I checked and found out that this little bastard wrote two new checks for 1,500 yuan, but I don't know where they went!" After a pause, "Lawyer Lu, you may not You know, as the deputy general manager of New Era, he has to do everything according to the rules. If he writes a check for more than 2,000 yuan, it needs to be signed by me. This bastard broke it into small pieces. Where did the money go? I dare not see it now. I don’t know where I’m hiding!”
Lu Ming nodded, "Maybe, but I want to think about how to fight this lawsuit."
At this time, the phone on the desk behind him suddenly rang rapidly. Pan Mila went to answer the phone, then turned around and said, "Mr. Liu, your phone number."
Liu Laocai was startled and frowned: "Who is it? The ghost that reminds you of death? Why are you here!"
Liu Laocai stood up to answer the phone and said a few words. His face immediately darkened. He slowly walked back and sat down. He frowned and said: "This is a call from the boss of the company, Zhang, saying that the mistress was taken away by the police and suspected of bribing witnesses. The police detectives went to the company to take me to investigate, so I asked them to come here!"
"Have I really misunderstood the mistress?" Liu Laocai was a little annoyed and patted his head hard, "Damn it!"
Lu Ming nodded silently, thinking about something.
More than half an hour later, two police detectives in black uniforms came to the laundry. The leader had a silver star on his shoulder straps. He was a police sergeant. He was thin and in his thirties, with triangular eyes and a belt. With a fierce look.
He showed his ID: "Mr. Liu Gaoyu, I am Sha Dahai, deputy chief of the Criminal Group 2 of the Beiguan Branch of the Donghai Police Station. You are suspected of instigating others to bribe witnesses. Now please come back with us to assist in the investigation!"
Lu Ming stood up and said, "I am the lawyer representing Mr. Liu Gaoyu. If you have an arrest warrant, please bring it out. My client is currently dealing with urgent matters and does not have time to assist you!"
Sha Dahai blinked his little eyes and mouthed to the man next to him, "You go out and wait!"
After the police detective went out, Sha Dahai immediately smiled apologetically at Liu Laocai, "Director Liu, you also understand that I have to come after the order from the top!"
Liu Laocai snorted coldly.
Sha Dahai smiled again and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu. Sir, I insist that it was his spontaneous act, and it was not a bribe. He was just expressing condolences to his employees. With Gao Dazheng accompanying him, I don't think it's a big deal. "
"Well, Mr. Liu, you're busy, I'll take my leave!" Sha Dahai nodded and bowed slightly to Lu Ming, "This grandmaster..."
Lu Ming motioned to Pan Mila, who gave him a business card, "This is Lawyer Lu Qianxinglu."
"Yes, yes, Lawyer Lu, you are busy!" Looking at Pan Mila, who has blond hair and blue eyes and elegant temperament, Sha Dahai even smiled apologetically, "Miss, you are busy too!"
He bowed repeatedly and retreated.
Lu Ming rubbed his nose. Although this police chief looked like his third grandson, it was because Liu Laocai was there.
In the world of Middle-earth people, imps have always been difficult to deal with.
In his previous life, this police chief was similar to the head of the criminal investigation detachment of the district bureau of a municipality. His energy was so great that ordinary citizens could not imagine it.
In this world, his power shouldn't be that great, but local snakes like them are indispensable for many things.
"Alas! I really wronged my mistress!" Liu Laocai sat back on the sofa in annoyance.
Lu Ming shook his head: "If the prosecutor can't do anything about the eldest son, the anger will be directed at you. Moreover, it is entirely possible to mention the eldest son's actions in a subtle way during the trial, leading the jury to think that the eldest son paid bribes. The witness was ordered by you. This will be a very negative factor for you. "
Liu Laocai was startled, then slowly sat up straight and frowned.
"Tall and tall, I know the eldest son very well. He actually went there right away. Just when I made an appointment with him, he said he wasn't in Beiguan and didn't have time." Lu Ming said thoughtfully.
Liu Laocai's expression gradually became serious, and he stared at Lu Ming, "I hope you will be the main arguer in tomorrow's trial."
At first, I wanted to hire this young man just to be a mascot.
Because Li Guan has a weird temper and is very senior, the chief judge of the Beiguan Circuit Court, the Western female judge, is Li Guan’s apprentice and listens to Li Guan in everything. In the Donghai High Court, there are even several justices and Li Guan has a close relationship.
This weird old lady is just a freak, and no one can do anything to her.
Li Guan obviously sympathized with Deng Hongmei. The trial process was very biased towards the other side. When taking turns to cross-examine witnesses, sensitive topics were involved. Nine out of ten objections from his own lawyer would be rejected, while the other party's objections were accurate every time.
In today's courts, it is really easy for a judge to lead a jury to favor one side.
I heard that there was a rookie lawyer who was very popular with Li Guan. Maybe he and Li Guan were old friends, so I was going to pay a high price to hire him to be a mascot.
During the trial, just sit in the deputy defense position and let Li Guan see it.
Unexpectedly, he brought a series of unexpected changes to himself.
Some I understand, some I don’t.
At many points, I have to think carefully about what happened these days, as well as some casual words of this young lawyer, which seem to remind myself that I have to go back and think about what it means.
But although there are many hidden things inside that are not clear yet, my keen sense of smell in the shopping mall tells me that the young man in front of me can bring surprises to me.
Liu Laocai looked at the gentle young lawyer in front of him and said solemnly: "Lu Bian, my reputation and career over the years are now all handed over to you!"
Lu Ming nodded: "I will do my best!"
