In the reception room of Room 408, outside the floor-to-ceiling glass window, you can see the green grassy hillside and the sunset forming a wonderful halo.
Opposite Lu Ming sat a tall man with dense earrings and ferocious tattoos on his neck. The expression on his face was very excited.
He was even wearing a grass-green military uniform and black leather boots with large toes. However, he did not have the epaulettes or the rank of private, and it was civilian attire.
Datou has always had the dream of being a professional soldier.
Being forced to retire should be the most painful thing in his heart.
Now, Lu Ming gave him a chance to re-enlist in the army and act as a liaison for Lu Ming, the military lawyer.
Lu Ming also didn't expect Datou to agree so happily. At this moment, Datou looked a little worried because it was already past the agreed time and the senior officer who came to interview him had not yet arrived.
However, it is really speechless to think that this big head’s real name is Yuan Datou.
He has been using a pseudonym. The old ghost didn't know his real name. Now that he is re-enlisting in the army, he naturally has to provide his real name.
Relevant materials have been sent to Mary a long time ago. I originally made an appointment with Mary to meet here at three o'clock this afternoon. She will come to interview Datou, but it is already past five o'clock and Mary has not come yet.
Park Soo Na knocked on the door gently and came in, carrying a tea tray with some snacks in it.
"You haven't found Mary yet?" Lu Ming asked.
Park Souna nodded slightly: "I called her office and home every ten minutes, but no one answered."
At this time, the doorbell rang outside.
Pu Xiuna hurriedly ran out and soon shouted in surprise: "Sir, Major Mary is here!"
Soon Park Soo Na led Mary in.
However, unlike usual times, Mary was a little silent, looking very listless, haggard, and in poor spirits, and lost her mind.
Lu Ming glanced at her, thought for a while, and introduced Datou, "Mary, this is the Datou I'm talking about, you will be my liaison from now on!"
The big head also immediately stood at attention and gave a military salute. Mary was wearing a dark blue officer uniform with the rank of major.
"Oh, okay, tomorrow, I'll ask someone to send over my ID and military uniform." Mary glanced at the boss casually, then turned to Lu Ming, "Lawyer Lu, I need to take a period of leave..." She forced a smile and said, "The lawsuit Forget it, I'm too tired and want to rest."
"What happened?" Lu Ming asked calmly.
Over there, Datou saw Lu Ming's signal, nodded, turned around and walked out, closing the door gently.
"Nothing..." Mary avoided Lu Ming's eyes.
Lu Ming nodded: "Okay, then I don't care!"
Mary was a little absent-minded, slowly sitting on the sofa, and suddenly said: "My black servant is dead..."
Lu Ming also sat down slowly.
Mary picked up the cigarette case from the coffee table, took out a cigarette from it, lit it, took two strong puffs, and coughed loudly.
Lu Ming didn't speak. At this time, speaking might be counterproductive, so just listen to her.
"She was tortured to death. This morning, someone sent me a package. Inside was her severed hand, and a tape recording the sound of her being tortured, as well as the words of those people, more than one Hours, more than an hour..."
"More than an hour...poor little Martha..."
Mary suddenly covered her face and started crying. She lay on the coffee table, her shoulders twitching and sobbing.
Lu Ming silently took the tissue and handed it over.
After a long while, Mary slowly stood up and wiped the tears from her face, "She, she is miserable..." But there was still a little fear in her eyes. Thinking about it, she remembered those terrible voices in the tape and seeing the black servant break. hand scene.
Lu Ming also took out a cigarette and lit it slowly.
"Little Reno did it!" Mary gritted her teeth, "I, when I didn't know what to do, I received a call. It was a very hoarse voice, saying that I shouldn't let the black servants go around freely. Lock her up, that's how lowly black slaves should be treated, and also say that the lawyer's letter, which angered Mr. Reynolds Jr., is just a warning."
"There are three white lines on the tape..."
Lu Ming nodded: "White Rose Movement..."
The "White Rose Movement" is the most notorious racial purification organization in the world. It is much more radical than the ** organizations in its previous life. Therefore, it is also an illegal organization expressly prohibited by imperial law.
It seems that Junior Leno is also a member.
"Lawyer Lu, what should I do?" Mary looked at Lu Ming with tears in her eyes, "I called Sir Wenger, he, he told me to forget about it, but, but...poor Martha... ..., I hurt her... I hurt her..." Mary covered her face again and sobbed softly.
"Where is the tape now?" Lu Ming asked.
"Here, at my house..." Mary said casually.
"Well, now, take Da Tou and hand him the tape and Martha's severed hand."
Mary was stunned and looked up.
Lu Ming showed no expression, "This matter has nothing to do with you anymore. Don't worry, we won't implicate you. I will take back the lawyer's letter sent to the Tower Restaurant."
"But..." Mary wanted to say something.
Lu Ming had already taken out his checkbook, wrote the number 10,000 and handed it over.
"I don't want..." Mary shook her head immediately, her eyes even a little angry, "Do you think I don't want to avenge Martha?! However, there is no voice of Little Reno in that tape! Moreover, the tape cannot be used as evidence! "
Lu Ming nodded: "Just leave it to me!"
Mary stared at Lu Ming for a while, then stood up, "Okay, I'll give you the stuff! I also want to see what happened to them..." She gritted her teeth, turned around and walked out.
…
Before Da Tou left, Lu Ming told him some things. Today's audio tapes are as big as records. They are wrapped with special plastic tape with magnetic powder on a large reel. They must be handled carefully to avoid damage.
Then, after thinking for a while, he picked up the phone and dialed Cheng Lingyu's number.
"Good boy, I haven't heard from you for a long time! I heard that you made Judge Christine so angry that you couldn't stand down in court? Haha, don't be angry either. Why do I feel that she treats you differently? How about looking at each other? Don’t really piss her off!"
"Hmm..." Lu Ming thought for a while, "Brother Cheng, there is a case where the White Rose Party tortured and killed black servants. I would like to file a case and handle it. I will take the lead. Do you think it can work?" After a pause, " Brother Cheng, this is the first time I ask you to help me. I will remember this favor forever."
Cheng Lingyu was obviously dumbfounded. Based on his understanding of this young man, there was no need to say these words about favors, but when they were said, they carried considerable weight.
Then, he smiled and said: "You kid, I haven't given you a case yet, but you have already recommended yourself. Okay, I promise you! Send the relevant materials about the case, and I will assign you a team to communicate with the police!" But if it’s just a murder case of a gangster, it would be too big a fuss if the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office files a case directly. Let’s use the investigation of White Rose and other illegal organizations to file the case! It is within the jurisdiction of the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office to lead the lawsuit to ban and combat terrorist organizations.”
Lu Ming was startled. He didn't expect that Cheng Lingyu would agree so happily, and he would say it so seriously.
Because, although the "White Rose" organization is expressly prohibited by imperial law, in fact, many Westerners do not resist this organization, and there are even many people who secretly support and protect it.
McCann, the director of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, doesn't know what his attitude will be.
I thought that Cheng Lingyu would at most promise to try his best to help him fight for it, but who knew that he would directly agree to it.
"Thank you, Brother Cheng!" Lu Ming suddenly felt warm in his heart, and there was no need to say any words of gratitude.
After hanging up the phone from Cheng Lingyu, Lu Ming thought for a while, picked up the phone and dialed Wei Baozeng's number.
"Ah, will you take the initiative to call me?" Wei Baozeng's tone over there was a bit resentful.
"Baozeng, if you didn't tell me yesterday, do you want me to accompany you tomorrow to meet the employees and contracted artists of Nadu Pictures?"
"Yes, you immediately rejected me. You, you are not willing to give me half a day!" Wei Baozeng said, suddenly startled: "Do you have time?"
"Well, I'll go for a walk with you tomorrow."
"Great, great!" Wei Baozeng was extremely pleasantly surprised, "If you give me some ideas, it would be hard for our film company not to become popular!" The more he came into contact with Lu Ming, the more he felt that this guy was simply not a human being. They all know it, and their knowledge is very advanced. In the film and television industry, this is especially important.
"I still have something to do, hang up!"
"Dudu", Wei Baozeng listened to the busy tone and could only smile bitterly and shake his head.
At this end of the phone line, Lu Ming sat on the sofa, picked up a pen and paper, and started writing.
I couldn't blame myself for little Martha's death, but I felt like it was burning in my heart, so I just wanted to do something to vent my anger.
The hour or so before she finally died was in hell for this little black maid whom she had never seen before, right?
The doorbell rang outside, and it was Wen Liangyu who was listening to the conversation with Park Souna.
When Pu Xiuna said there were no guests, Wen Liangyu was not polite. He smiled and opened the door and walked in. "Qianxing, we have a distinguished guest here today who wants to see you by name!"
Lu Ming raised his head: "Who is it?"
Wen Liangyu chuckled, "The young master of Renault Pictures, that is, the youngest son of Sir Renault, think about it, in a small place like your fourth brother, you don't always get a person like this every year. He's so brilliant." , Haha, I’m here to see you, right? You’re really embarrassing yourself to Fourth Brother!”
Lu Ming smiled and suddenly asked: "Fourth brother, do you think Renault Pictures is now the foundation of the Renault family?"
Wen Liangyu was startled for a moment, then thought for a while and said, "That's right. I heard that Old Renault sold almost all the inherited property to invest in this film industry. However, it was done very well. Sir Renault still has a vision. Right? Haha!”
Lu Ming nodded and stood up, "Let's go, I'll go see him and give him a meeting gift for little Martha."
Wen Liangyu was startled, not knowing what Lu Ming was talking about, but she had a vague feeling that today's meeting was not a good gathering.
He deliberately took a few slow steps, called his confidants, and gave some instructions. In any case, there was no other good choice except to stand with this former little brother, now a young upstart whom he could not understand at all.
These so-called knights on the fringes are actually just wealthy tycoons now, aren't they? Rotten bricks and tiles, never afraid of these porcelain.
When it comes to connections, since I want to meet the right person, I naturally have some considerations in mind.
And soon, there were many gunmen moving quickly outside, but this was not something that the customers in the store could see.
