2265 Chapter 2267 the Cruel Truth of Society 1
At this moment, Xiao Ning was reporting to Goodnight RU as she voiced out her doubts.
She begged goodnight ru, “Lawyer an, we can make a public welfare case to protect abused animals. If children are abused and abused, shouldn’t we stand up and help them? Provide them with free legal aid and help them get justice? Otherwise, wouldn’t they be worse than dogs?”
An wanru muttered, “A good person is worse than a dog!”
Seeing that an WANRU was also so indignant, Xiao Ning felt extremely gratified.
Sure enough, her boss was also full of justice!
As long as she had an WANRU’s support, she would investigate this little girl’s matter in her next case to help the little girl regain her freedom and punish the murderer.
However..
An Wanru suddenly narrowed her eyes and asked meaningfully, “Xiao Ning, do you know why the company took on this non-profit, Dog Abuse Public Interest Lawsuit?”
Xiao Ning shook her head and pursed her lips. “Isn’t it because they pity those dogs? Isn’t it because they want to uphold justice and show the legal ethics of Lawyers?”
An Wan’s thin lips curled up slightly and she sneered, “Of course not.”
Xiao Ning was stunned.
Wasn’t it… ?
Then what other reasons could there be?
She suddenly had a vague feeling that this society was not as simple as she had imagined.
An Wan’s tone was calm. “The reason why the company accepted this public interest lawsuit is because every year, the Empire’s Law Association will select gold-ranked law firms and gold-ranked lawyers nationwide. The number of spots is very limited. Those who become gold-ranked law firms will receive better resources around the law and resources that the government can use to publicize the case. These resources can all be converted into a large amount of profit, which is also money. “And one of the conditions for becoming a gold-ranked law firm is that there must be a certain percentage of public interest lawsuit cases that must be done for free.”
There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world.
So the reason why the law firm took on the dog abuse case was to meet the requirements of a gold-medal law firm.
This free case was just to earn more “High legal fees”.
Xiao Ning could not hide the disappointment in her eyes.
Society was indeed too complicated..
An WANRU continued, “Now, our company has enough public interest litigation cases this year to select a gold-medal law firm. Therefore, the company will not take on any more public interest litigation cases. If we do, we will lose money. Do you understand?”
Xiao Ning bit her lip. “But…”
An Wanru stopped her. “No buts. If the company doesn’t accept, I won’t accept either. As my assistant, there’s no need for you to waste your time on such a non-profitable case.”
Her tone was very determined, and it was a little heavy. “Also… Xiao Ning, when it comes to human crime, whether it’s child abuse or human trafficking, it’s a very dangerous case. It’s 10,000 times more dangerous than dog abuse. Do you understand?”
Just as Xiao Ning’s disappointed eyes showed, she heard an WANRU say that this case was dangerous. She suddenly understood — even though lawyer an claimed that the purpose of accepting free public interest lawsuits was to make money.., he made it sound so rational and cold. In fact, lawyer an did not let her work on this case because it was too dangerous, right?
To have the ability to abuse and sell young girls… This was definitely not something that an ordinary person could do. There must be an incomparably huge industrial chain behind it.
Could a small university graduate like her be able to withstand the dark forces behind this?
Lawyer an was afraid that she would sink herself into it. The gains didn’t make up for the losses!
