Who Made Him a Lawyer?

Chapter 681: Chapter 431: Turning the Tables

1983.....

This time period is truly special.

Wang Hai merely recalled the events of the past, and his brows immediately furrowed.

It is now 2005, a full 22 years after ’83.

years... ordinary police officers may just be around this age.

But Wang Hai is different.

In terms of rank, he is even higher than Xu Liang’s senior Lin Fuqiang, nearly sixty years old this year. Even 22 years ago, he was close to forty, in his prime!

So, what is history to others is merely a middle-aged memory to him.

And Xu Liang’s words... just happened to trigger his memories in this aspect!

"Are you sure?" Wang Hai asked in a deep voice.

"I’m not certain, but I’ve just finished investigating the Sunshine Welfare Institute."

Xu Liang sat in the driver’s seat, watching the scene outside the car window, and said quietly:

"The information Zhuge Rong used to register his identity is entirely false... This actually is very strange."

"Given the size of his operation... such details like identity should be handled well."

Let’s put it this way.

If Xu Liang were Zhuge Rong, wanting to change his identity in ’84.

His first step would be to establish the deeds of ’Zhuge Rong’!

For example, by first replacing the director of the welfare institute, during a time when it was not crowded, inserting the fabricated files of ’Zhuge Rong’, which is himself, into the institute.

Then, regarding contemporaneous orphans in the fabricated record, engage in ’Montage Effect’ triggering, inquiry, and reminder to cause a distortion in their memories.

Thus, leading others to truly believe there existed a ’Zhuge Rong’ in their childhood, and even played with him!

"Achieving this is simple, and if the opposition really did this back then..."

"Now, I wouldn’t have a way to deal with him at all."

"The power behind Zhuge Rong is immense; I don’t believe they wouldn’t think of this."

Xu Liang quietly remarked from his chair, while Yang Ruoxi’s palm slightly sweated beside him.

Sound traveled through the phone into Wang Hai’s ears, causing his brows to furrow.

Immediately, he continued,

"Unless... the opposition didn’t have time to be so meticulous, or even dared not go through the trouble to modify memories!"

"And this relates directly to the change of identity by the opposition."

"Namely, the opposition encountered an unstoppable, irresistible special factor, which led to ’Zhuge Rong’s’ identity, and because of urgent circumstances, left many identity loopholes!"

Listening to this.

Wang Hai was silent for a long time, it’s unknown what he was contemplating.

After a while, he took a deep breath and said deeply:

"So, his real identity, in your estimation, should have already been executed?"

Xu Liang nodded decisively.

"Exactly, at least sentenced to a very long fixed term imprisonment."

After these words.

Wang Hai smacked his lips, placed a hand on his forehead, and was silent for a long time, thoughts racing in his mind.

Of course, this doesn’t imply he has no ideas.

Precisely because there is a thought process, he displays this stance!

1983, this point in time was when Eastern Country’s judiciary was most stringent, a nationwide cleanup campaign took place, primarily targeting social malpractices.

Countless societal hooligans, criminal forces were all tackled!

Even petty thugs were implicated.

Implicated how?

Let’s put it simply, by 2026, killing someone for various reasons might not necessarily lead to execution.

However, back then, even minor hooliganism, malicious intent for various reasons might not necessarily escape execution... Yes, in other words, you might be sentenced to death...

Most critically...

Once discovered, no matter who you are, you would be treated without discrimination awaiting arrest!

"The... number might be a bit overwhelming."

Wang Hai replied solemnly.

Even in Upper City, the number of arrests was astronomical.

Finding Zhuge Rong was no different from searching for a needle in a haystack!

But that said.

"Uncle Wang, I think investigating this should not be difficult for you."

Xu Liang suddenly smirked, clearly indifferent to the other’s statement.

"After all, identities like Zhuge Rong... not many get caught."

The number of ordinary criminals caught is indeed high.

But don’t forget.

Behind Zhuge Rong lies immense power!

Directly overlook ordinary people, and just consider those notorious yet arrested, the number is extremely few.

"Even if you conduct a carpet investigation, finding one by one, you can still confirm identity information."

Xu Liang gently reminded.

Indeed.

These cases are few, Wang Hai could even remember each person clearly.

Yet...

"Maybe it’s not as easy as you think."

Wang Hai sighed and stated truthfully.

Xu Liang did not argue, indeed as the other said.

Standing by the side and casually remarking was easy for him, implementing on-ground could be exceptionally complex for the other.

"Owing you a favor truly is demanding!"

Wang Hai suddenly grumbled a string of complaints.

"Kid, hurry and get lost."

With that, he promptly hung up the phone.

Wang Hai sat on the chair with a furrowed brow full of contemplation and tight expression.

"Zhuge... Ugh, which one is it..."

Wang Hai murmured softly.

"This situation is getting murkier..."

...

...

Meanwhile, in the car parked at the welfare institute’s entrance.

Xu Liang planned to continue speaking.

But the next moment, a ’beep’ sound was heard by his ear.

He instantly fell silent, showing a helpless expression.

"Uncle Wang hung up."

Beside him, Yang Ruoxi raised her head for a look, and gently reminded.

"I know."

Xu Liang shook his head, put the phone in his pocket, but didn’t rush to drive away.
