Who Made Him a Lawyer?

Chapter 500: Chapter 363: Xu Liang Smiles—Life and Death Unpredictable!

First, think of a way to get to Yang City Eco Park....

But the problem arises.

"It’s a bit difficult...."

Yang Ruoxi murmured from the backseat, and the atmosphere in the car fell silent.

Yang City isn’t far from Hanhai City, it’s merely a few dozen kilometers if you measure a straight line from the city’s edge. Driving on the highway, you could get there in about an hour.

But... it’s these few dozen kilometers that leave Xu Liang somewhat at a loss.

"Over at Captain Chen’s... someone is watching the police’s actions, even a slight move will be caught immediately."

"Directly contact Yang City police? They don’t know us at all..."

Yang Ruoxi only felt her mind a bit jumbled.

The police in Yang City might not be completely unaware of Xu Liang, after all, he’s occasionally mentioned in the news and on TV.

But... the level of trust between them is absolutely not established!

Yang Ruoxi could guarantee that as long as Xu Liang provided a clue to Yang City police, the other side would definitely move straight into arrest and investigation, instead of following Xu Liang’s suggestions.

"Why not try contacting your senior brother?" Yang Ruoxi tentatively asked.

Xu Liang pondered, then shook his head.

"No."

Lin Fuqiang is from the province, and for him to give an order, it would have to be passed down layer by layer, making it known to all.

His intention was to enter Yang City without anyone knowing, which clearly contradicts this plan.

Even if Lin Fuqiang did issue an order... the police would have no reason to listen to Xu Liang, most likely they would make their own plan, then act.

In any case....

"No way, those people have spies watching us too closely."

Su Yu racked her brains for a long time, finally sighed, shook her head, and couldn’t come up with a good plan.

But...

"Spies...."

Xu Liang suddenly furrowed his brows and fell into thought, then his eyes suddenly lit up.

"That’s it, spies!"

Su Yu and Yang Ruoxi instinctively turned to look at him, and then their hearts skipped a beat, impatiently asking:

"What spies!?"

"Let me ask you, is anyone watching us right now?"

Xu Liang suppressed his emotions, hurriedly questioned the two, but his chest heaved violently, clearly having thought of something.

"Yes!"

Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu answered without hesitation.

From the current intel, there was definitely someone watching them.

But....

"Why are they watching us!?" Xu Liang pressed further.

Because....

"Hu Hua case?" Su Yu furrowed her brows, a bit puzzled by his meaning.

Yang Ruoxi added, "Because there’s a problem with this case?"

"Wrong, the reason they are watching us is because of Lv Xiong. Lv Xiong is our client!"

"If Lv Xiong had no contract with the law firm, no one would be watching us."

Xu Liang stated bluntly, revealing the truth.

"In other words, they are watching us because they are afraid the defense lawyer could uncover the truth and turn the case for the defendant, Lv Xiong!"

"The summary is... their motive is centered around the word ’courtroom’!"

Thus, Village Chief Zhang from Sanma Village and Veterinarian Sun’s focus was all on... the courtroom!

"Or rather, everyone’s focus is on the courtroom."

Xu Liang was eager to try, and in the car’s rearview mirror, reflected his excited smile.

Yes.

Everyone’s focus was on the courtroom because that was their goal!

In their eyes, it’s the endpoint of the whole case!

So...

If at this moment, Xu Liang quietly leaves the court while they are all focused on the trial... and then head to Yang City?

From the backseat, Yang Ruoxi saw this scene in the rearview mirror, and her heart skipped a beat.

From what she knew about the other side... every time Xu Liang showed such an expression, it generally meant someone was going to suffer!

And indeed, this was the case.

The next second, regarding the plan, a voice slowly rose.

"Do you think, when the most critical trial is underway... will anyone still be watching us?"

Xu Liang said with a sly smile, turning around to look at the two girls behind, like a laughing old fox.

The two girls were taken aback, then their eyes twitched.

"Are you saying... to use the trial time not to go to court, but secretly go to Yang City!?"

Xu Liang nodded.

The perpetrators were watching them because they were afraid of any findings during recess that might affect the trial.

So... if nothing is found before the trial begins, all the spies around Xu Liang would likely be withdrawn.

After all, recess is for fact-checking, trials are for presenting evidence.

A single case really only has two chances, the first trial and appeal, why take on a case if you don’t defend it during the trial? To just increase your loss rate!?

But here’s the problem.

"I’m not presenting evidence during the evidence period either, so during the trial period, isn’t it reasonable that I don’t attend either!?"

Xu Liang suddenly said righteously.

The two girls in the back seat were stunned, their minds buzzing, wanting to say something to refute but couldn’t utter a single word.

Not presenting during the evidence period.

So not going to court during the trial period is fine too!?

No....

"This... this isn’t right, isn’t handling a case all about the trial? If you don’t attend, can it still be considered you’re handling the case...."

Yang Ruoxi hesitated, her not-so-advanced brain CPU clearly couldn’t keep up with the thought process.

If reality were a light novel, it would probably start steaming.

"I didn’t present during the evidence period, but I still handled the case!?"

Xu Liang retorted.

Yes, though this situation could easily turn from handling a case to handling a lawyer.

Also, it’s easy to turn from a conscientious lawyer into a shyster.

But... ignore those unimportant details.
