Chapter 788: Chapter 807: Justice and Rights Protection Association
Needing law students could only mean one thing: they were going to sue.
But... why did they need good-looking law students?
To get to the bottom of this rather tantalizing question, Qiuqiu hid her ID number and joined the group.
-
The Justice Defense Federation.
Sure, everyone had ulterior motives—namely, wanting the rival shop to go bankrupt immediately. But so what! They had their motives, and they’d own them. Besides, the name made them sound more convincing.
The president of the Federation was, naturally, the fiery fellow who had organized the whole thing.
[***, why are some people so scared of a little trouble!]
[Seriously, is it that hard to just sign up?]
[Get everyone mobilized! We need everyone mobilized!]
—Everyone who could be mobilized *has been*. The other side has already fulfilled over half their orders. I bet the rest of the customers are about to get their sauce.
And once they get it, the transaction will be considered complete.
At that point, the lawsuit won’t just be about getting deposits back.
[For those of us who have already filed, it doesn’t matter if they ship it or not. It’s fine as long as we personally don’t sign for the delivery.]
[So we need to hurry up and try to get more deposits refunded before the packages arrive! Don’t let the rival shop collect the final payments!]
[...]
[Why is this so difficult?]
The fiery president found it so strange. [It’s obvious that Juju’s crab roe sauce is tastier! It’s cheaper, too. The other shop is just ripping people off.]
[Plus, they plagiarized! Their product is worse than stuff people give away for free, they ran a pre-order with deposits, and now they can’t even ship the goods... So why won’t people ask for a refund?]
He felt that anyone who had bought the rival’s crab roe sauce should be doing everything in their power to get their money back.
—Well, they’re probably just too lazy to bother.
—For some families, 100 Star Coins is nothing. And for those who do care about 100 Star Coins, they might feel a lawsuit is going too far and don’t want to get involved.
The fiery fellow glanced at everyone’s progress report again.
He sighed in resignation. [We’re helping them get their money back, and they don’t even want it. Unbelievable...]
As he scrolled down, he suddenly noticed that the legal professionals had an especially large number of clients!
[This legal assistant, Liao Yu, must be highly skilled, right? Did she really persuade this many people?]
Damn.
A whole page of them.
—She’s highly skilled, but not the most skilled.
[Then she’s an amazing speaker?]
—Nope.
—She’s the famous goddess of our Star System’s legal community.
Think about it. Normally, you’d have to wait in line just to chat with the goddess, and even then, she might not give you the time of day.
Her actual profession is law, but you can’t just run to her with every petty little dispute and ask her to file a lawsuit...
For one, it would be embarrassing.
And for another, she wouldn’t necessarily take the case anyway.
But now, the goddess suddenly made a post on her feed, asking if anyone in her circle wanted to join the lawsuit to get their deposits back—
—I want a refund too! Too bad I never bought it.
[!!!]
[Wait, you can do that?]
—Yep, hehe. Maybe if we pull a bunch of handsome guys and gorgeous girls into the group, plaster their photos all over the rival’s page, a whole lot more people will suddenly find the motivation to get their money back.
[!!]
The fiery fellow thought that was a brilliant idea.
And so, the "Recruiting Handsome Men and Beautiful Women" post was born.
And what’s more, this ridiculous proposal actually worked surprisingly well.
After they casually posted a few photo collages of handsome male paralegals on the rival’s page, hundreds of girls suddenly came asking about the refund process that very afternoon.
People were so predictable.
The influx of inquiries was overwhelming. Worried they didn’t have enough people to handle the rival’s fans, the fiery fellow recruited another wave of helpers from the fan groups. This new wave included Qiuqiu.
She curiously observed everything unfolding in the group chat.
She watched as they talked about her, their words filled with praise.
And when they mentioned the rival’s plagiarism, they were gritting their teeth in anger.
