Chapter 582: Chapter 389: Why Didn’t You Say Your Grandmaster Is Zhao De!
"Bang!"
Xu Liang sat in the chair, ignoring the others from Jinhua, and began to rest with closed eyes.
His mind was constantly pondering the situation.
"This matter probably has nothing to do with Jinhua... Bad luck? If it really was an accident... it might be possible to use it."
"However... this ’accident’ itself is rather peculiar."
Xu Liang’s eyebrows twitched, as if he was confronted with a very difficult problem.
"Stealing postal stamps..."
"Theft is typically for ’wealth,’ stamps are indeed valuable, but the thief went for the worthless ones."
"Even though they took the truck too, they didn’t sell it, only wanted those cheap stamps..."
He couldn’t quite comprehend what those two petty thieves were aiming to do!
After a long time.
Xu Liang finally opened his eyes and turned to look at Wang Chao beside him, speaking softly in his ear:
"Chao, where did those stolen stamps go last time?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Chao was stunned and responded after coming to his senses:
"I don’t know."
"Based on their account, it seems the stamps were... burned."
Burned!?
"Really burned or not?" Xu Liang frowned even more deeply.
Stealing things just to burn them? Even someone insane wouldn’t do that!
"Probably fake, but since the value involved is small, no one pursued it." Wang Chao shook his head.
The missing items were merely a batch of common stamps, no one cared.
"These two people..."
Xu Liang fell into deep thought.
"What exactly do they intend to do?"
On the left side of the hospital room.
Zheng Tong looked cautiously at Xu Liang on the opposite side, then retracted his gaze and focused on the person who came with him and the others.
"Whew~"
"We’ve really run into trouble."
As he spoke, Zheng Tong felt a slight toothache.
Initially, he intended to jointly resist the other party, forcing Xu Liang to compete with other law firms in Hai City, but who would’ve thought the case could develop to this extent.
It nearly resulted in a fatal incident!!!
If it were ordinary people, it would be easy; they could find connections to prove their innocence.
But Xu Liang is different.
The Hunter Case he risked his life to expose in a remote corner of Lanshan Province isn’t over yet!
Dozens of departments from Upper City have been sent down and haven’t returned yet.
Furthermore, this is the most sensitive period!
The officials are worried about resistance from families like the Dong Clan, and the families fear having their assets seized by the authorities.
But at this critical juncture... exposing this case almost got Xu Liang killed.
It’s like dancing on the tightrope strung between these two forces!
Not to mention, he recently exposed the Young Master Sauce Case and the Steel Case...
Just the thought that they might have conspired to murder him is hair-raising!
"Let me ask once more, are you responsible for this!"
Zheng Tong grew increasingly vexed, looking irascibly at the people around him.
The crowd couldn’t manage a smile, looking warily around.
"Alright, the most important thing now is to clear up the connection!"
Zhang Hao suddenly spoke in a solemn tone, expressing his thoughts.
Upon hearing this.
Everyone fell into contemplation.
"It’s not that easy to clear up the connection; clearly, he’s exploiting the situation, refusing to let go on purpose!"
Zheng Tong took a deep breath, speaking in frustration.
"Intentional actions suit our interests better!" Zhang Hao retorted sharply.
If Xu Liang genuinely believed it was Jinhua’s doing... that would be troublesome.
Instead, by intentionally holding on, they could sit down and negotiate the price!
As for the price... truthfully, if Xu Liang demanded excessively, they would refuse.
After all, they truly have no involvement with the case!
However, few law firms would want the authorities checking them thoroughly, especially Jinhua Law Firm.
If the financial cases they handle were targeted, it’s hard for leaks not to appear; potentially leading to trouble for the firm later.
"What if this situation is self-orchestrated by him!?"
Zheng Tong suddenly said in a muffled voice.
"If he personally devised it, we’re being manipulated by him for nothing!?"
After all, it’s obvious he doesn’t play by the rules; maybe he used the truck incident to realize our alliance as a method of breaking the deadlock."
Clearly, being affronted by Xu Liang left him still angered.
But....
"Then we take it!"
Qian Feng’s eyes tightened, speaking impatiently and frankly.
He had seen the surveillance footage.
Su Yu barely missed death by a second!
And if he died, Xu Liang would be dragged under the truck as well, losing at least an arm, possibly dying!
No need to mention this close-call fatal incident, whether anything insane like this truly happens.
Simply, if Xu Liang did indeed orchestrate such a situation....
"If he set up using two lives... then we take it!" Qian Feng repeated once more.
If he truly staged it this way...
Then Qian Feng conceded, acknowledging his misfortune encountering such a ruthless person.
Someone risking it all against you; what else could you do!?
Like he said, concede to misfortune!
"I..."
Zheng Tong faltered, unable to speak further.
"Alright, Lawyer Zheng, right now we should avoid trouble and focus on handling this matter properly."
"Indeed, clear up the responsibility, then we investigate the peculiarities of this case."
"Alas, concede to misfortune..."
Several lawyers gathered around to comfort Zheng Tong, whose expression improved slightly, then considered how much interest to yield to Xu Liang.
"Forget it, we can let him come to Upper City if necessary."
"I think that’s imprudent..."
"Nothing imprudent, once we weather the current storm, we can besiege again later!"
The group sank into discussion.
Until....
....
"Xu Liang!"
At night, amid the silent hospital corridor, an indistinct, composed yet slightly anxious voice emerged.
