Several new apartment buildings of around 20 floors stand on the coast of Beiguan.
At this time, Lu Ming, accompanied by Wen Liangyu, was wandering around the top floor on the 22nd floor of Building 1.
These buildings, named "Left Bank Garden", are the latest luxury apartment buildings in Beiguan. Their floor heights and apartment sales prices have also set new records in Beiguan.
The top floor is a duplex structure, and the interior is extremely luxurious. There are large floor-to-ceiling windows on all sides, with a 360-degree circular view without blind spots. The natural scenery outside cleverly becomes the indoor perspective. When the electric curtains are pressed, it is extremely private.
Moreover, Building 1 has the best view. To the south is a line of blue sea and sky, and to the north is the huge Ferris wheel of the Borna Playground. At night, the Ferris wheel lights flash and the visual effect is excellent.
Outside, there is an extremely safe open balcony, including a small blue swimming pool.
This is the “penthouse” concept of luxury condominiums that is emerging in the East China Sea.
Wen Liangyu laughed at the side and said: "I know you are busy, so I must come. I just want you to take a look. Is it okay here? You see, the feeling here is completely different from the villa on Hepu Road. I feel that you are missing something like this." penthouse.”
Lu Ming smiled: "Are you going to give it to me?"
Wen Liangyu immediately laughed happily, "Of course, otherwise, why would I bring you here?"
Lu Ming immediately waved his hand: "I really like this place, but I'm introducing you to the project here. I guess Fourth Brother, you won't be able to buy this apartment with all your income. Isn't your hard work in vain? I'm afraid you'll have to pay for it... …”
The Left Bank Garden was built by a major customer of Baoyin Bank, who was also one of the investors of Lu Ming's Han Dynasty Private Equity Fund.
Some of the projects here were also given to Wen Liangyu, mainly the later outer building construction and inner decoration.
After all, when I became familiar with the big client, construction had already started here. For example, Building 1 was the first to be built, using a construction company in the urban area, which had better qualifications after all.
Lu Ming was thinking that Wen Liangyu had a big internal discount and wanted to give him one. Moreover, there were only a few penthouses in the Left Bank Garden. Being able to occupy a place was not something you only had to have money to do.
My business partner actually asked me if he could keep one, but he didn't come to see it, so he just said no.
Now that Wen Liangyu was rubbing her around in circles, I really regretted it.
But the money Wen Liangyu earned from this left bank garden may not necessarily be able to buy the penthouse apartment in Building 1, because compared with the penthouse apartments in several other buildings, the penthouse apartment in Building 1 is the largest and most luxurious. The entire top floor is just like this. One apartment, in fact, this should be considered the 23rd floor, which is a different concept from the layout of the apartments on the 22nd floor below.
The project Wen Liangyu took from this real estate had all kinds of expenses, and he himself should not be left behind much.
After all, it was the first time to cooperate with my business partner. The materials used were abundant and the quotation was not high.
"What's money without money!" Wen Liangyu smiled: "Qianxing, the kind of circle you let me enter, if I add it all up, I have spent much more money than this, and I have never even touched the door!"
Smiling again, Wen Liangyu said: "What's more, Qianxing, your current identity is exactly my brother's nemesis!" She smiled as she spoke.
I also smiled bitterly in my heart. I couldn't see the cards behind this little brother, and I didn't need to think about it. It just showed that with his current status, I was considered to be a high-ranking person if I made friends with him.
Fortunately, when I got to know him, which was still a relatively young age, I understood his temperament and valued friendship.
As for the bad things that happened to the old Zhao family, if it were replaced by the second person, the Zhao family would be finished.
After listening to Wen Liangyu's words, Lu Ming smiled, walked to the west floor-to-ceiling window to look at the scenery, and suddenly exclaimed: "Is that Fernald College? It's quite close!"
Wen Liangyu laughed: "Yes, Qianxing, it's convenient for you to go to school. You're in the second grade, right?!"
Lu Ming was helpless, but thinking about it, he originally wanted to go once every half month, but apart from reporting on the beginning of school, he has never been there until now.
too busy.
Simply wait for the final exam at the end of the year and take the exam. Even though you are not good at foreign language, you can still be confident in other subjects.
Of course, you don’t have to answer the questions with all your strength, just mean it.
Once the final exam results are out, at the very least, there should be no danger of cutting back on classes to study in Form One.
A partial subject, but not really a scumbag.
Thinking wildly, Lu Ming said: "Okay, Fourth Brother, I'll be disrespectful, but like this, it's hard for me to come here at ordinary times, especially busy recently. No one lives here and it's not popular. It's not good. You can find someone to help." I come to clean the room every day, which is considered popular. The property fee here should be quite high, and there should be a housekeeper, right?"
Wen Liangyu smiled and said: "No problem, in this case, I will ask Xiaoling to come here every day. I don't worry about finding a maid. She will move around and lie on your bed. How dirty is it?"
"How can I trouble my sister-in-law?" Lu Ming was helpless. Jia Xiaoling had seen Brother Wen's lover, a very comfortable woman who liked to wear cheongsam.
"Just leave it alone!" Wen Liangyu waved her hand and said, "That's it? You're quite busy too."
Lu Ming looked at his watch and nodded: "Yes, it's time for me to go back!"
Fourth Brother Wen is quite considerate.
…
Inside the Husky Hotel, prosecutors and patrol police were very busy coming in and out.
In Lu Ming's room, Lu Ming was discussing with several team leaders the closure of one of the evidence chains.
Starting from Jordan, these prosecutors only listen. Commissioner Lu is too careful with the chain of evidence. He considers almost every loophole that the other party's lawyer may target. He is worthy of being a criminal defense lawyer. I don't admire him. Will not work.
The "red line" phone on the table rang. Lu Ming picked up the phone and listened to the conversation. He frowned slightly and turned to look at a few people: "Just now, Booker showed up and surrendered at the Third Police Station." Police Station Three, in the West District.
Everyone was stunned.
After thinking for a while, Lu Ming waved his hand: "Little Renault, catch him too!"
Several team leaders immediately stood up and took action.
Lu Ming paced, thinking about something.
"Will the court sentence them all harshly?" Han Anni's voice was clear and crisp next to her.
Han Anni has always fulfilled her duties as a secretary and never asked any questions. This is the first time she has asked about the case.
"I think it's okay. The variables are Booker and Leno. I think they should be prosecuted as double-headed offenders." Lu Ming pondered, "Let's see how Booker gives a confession!"
Returning to the table, picking up the case and the countless confessions, Lu Ming looked at it again.
On the other side of the screen, Han Anni looked at Lu Ming, who was working with a frown and immersed in the case, and blinked with big eyes. This bad guy, at this time, was completely different from usual.
"Annie, is the mattress I changed for you comfortable to sleep on? I recently found another good thing. It's for foot massage. It's very relaxing. I'll buy it for you later!"
Lu Ming suddenly stretched and said, as if he had read the transcript at a certain stage and took a rest.
Han Anni was speechless, turned back to look at her notes, and pretended not to hear.
Lu Ming remained silent until more than two hours later.
The phone rang suddenly and urgently, and Lu Ming immediately picked up the phone.
Inside, Zhang Xianhe's excited voice said: "Commissioner, this is great. Booker's confession stated that Little Reno is a pervert and likes to collect the brains of victims. Moreover, there are bottles in Little Reno's bedroom and refrigerator. There are many brains of victims. Little Reno likes to sleep with these brains! This pervert, see if he can still deny it?"
Lu Ming hummed, hung up the phone, and pondered.
The phone rang suddenly again.
Cantona called, "Commissioner, it seems that little Renaud has been prepared. There is a barrister accompanying him, named Richard Hanson. He is from the imperial capital, but his attitude is very good. He said that his client is willing to cooperate." We investigate and will follow us.”
After hanging up the phone, Lu Ming thought for a moment and pulled out the drawer. Inside was a copy of the 949th Yearbook of the Imperial Bar Association, which was last year's yearbook.
After flipping through a few pages, sure enough, I saw Richard Hansen's name, no wonder it felt familiar.
He is a very famous criminal defense lawyer in the imperial capital. He has a remarkable record in the yearbook. Especially at the end of last year, he appealed to the Supreme Court on behalf of a prisoner who was sentenced to death. In front of those justices, he forced the police and induced him to confess. and other methods to criticize him thoroughly.
Ultimately, the Federal Supreme Court ruled that before interrogation, the police must clearly inform the person being questioned that they have the right to remain silent, the right to a lawyer, etc.
It is similar to the Miranda warning in my previous life.
And in this world, Richard is known as the Right to Silence.
Today, many local police departments in the empire are implementing Richard's right to silence.
Of course, areas with a relatively strong autonomous atmosphere, such as the Donghai Metropolitan Area, still have their own set of legal standards. The rulings of the Federal Supreme Court can be used as a reference, but they are not mandatory.
But no matter what, this lawyer Richard can be regarded as the top criminal defense lawyer in the empire.
The yearbook also stated that the Imperial Bar Association, in view of lawyer Richard's outstanding contributions, is preparing to award him the title of senior barrister next year for a one-year review period.
Richard is a sixth-degree barrister, and above that, there is the senior barrister, and then there is the Queen's Counsel.
Not to mention the Queen's Counsel, there are only about ten of them alive. If you don't count the retired ones, I'm afraid they can be counted on five fingers.
As for the senior barrister, there is no such thing as assessment points. It is a title awarded by the Imperial Bar Association to the barristers who have made the most outstanding contributions.
There are only ten places each year. Overall, there are only a few dozen senior barristers in the entire empire.
It can be said that Richard is about to reach the pinnacle of the legal profession.
This Richard was obviously several levels above the barrister he had fought against before.
The Renault family has spent a lot of money. It's not just money. To hire such a lawyer, it also requires connections and family pedigree.
Otherwise, for fear of this Richard, I would be too lazy to take care of him.
