Who Made Him a Lawyer? Chapter 408 - 295: The Box Can’t Possibly Hold a Human Head,
Now it begins... enter Upper City!
As the words fell, the people present took a deep breath, their eyes gradually firming up.
Zhu Haoyi was deeply entrenched in Zhengyang City, they couldn’t even file a case, completely unable to investigate, continuing in this ghost place was purely a waste of ti.
The only way out... is to head to Upper City!
But...
"Take a train there?"
Yang Ruoxi looked at the train ticket in her hand, a hesitant expression on her face.
She bought the train ticket last night. Ever since she purchased it, she had hesitated, wanting to voice the questions brewing in her mind.
"We won’t get caught, will we..." Su Yu also spoke with concern.
Currently, the security level at the Eastern Country’s train station, although not as high as in the later years, is equipped with things like X-rays, practically eliminating the possibility of Liu Jinshui sneaking into Upper City.
As long as they entered the station... there was a high chance of being discovered!
After all, these instrunts are not cheap, and certainly not for show.
But having said that...
"The equipnt is too expensive, only stations of level three and above are equipped with it. Other stations rely on whether the place is willing."
"When I bought the tickets yesterday, I investigated. The station in Zhengyang City is very small. The flow of people is not large."
"Overall inspection thods still rely on manpower, not even ’every bag must be checked’, instead they adopt a spot-checking approach."
Xu Liang slowly spoke.
This ans the likelihood of exposure greatly decreases!
Yang Ruoxi wanted to say more, but Liu Jinshui spoke first.
"Let’s take the train."
Liu Jinshui spoke heavily, his face expressionless, his eyes dark and oppressive.
Hearing this, Yang Ruoxi and the others ceased to speak.
"Let’s go." Xu Liang nodded, and imdiately led the group to leave directly.
They didn’t bring many people, only Xu Liang, Liu Jinshui, and three others. Before long, they drove to the train station.
There were hardly any people at the train station, and in the early morning, even the staff were lacking in spirit, and so were even dozing off.
Liu Jinshui took a deep breath.
However, Xu Liang calmly went to check the tickets, showing no signs of tension.
And the staff only checked the tickets, confird their identity and let them enter, even yawning, showing no intent of conducting spot checks.
"Next." The staff mber said drowsily.
Liu Jinshui’s heart tightened, stepping forward.
Again, confirming his identity, he stepped through without being asked to check his luggage or anything else.
Liu Jinshui felt a bit disoriented, a feeling of unreality, as he sat in the waiting room for the train.
Even when the train arrived, he still hadn’t co to his senses.
Until Xu Liang patted him on the shoulder.
"What are you thinking about?"
Xu Liang looked at him, quietly said, "Once you get to Upper City... you should know what you need to do."
Liu Jinshui ca back to his senses, nodded imdiately, took a deep breath and entered the train.
Once seated in the sleeper, Liu Jinshui held onto his suitcase, his mind dwelling in detailed contemplation.
Upon arriving at Upper City...
Then Liu Jinshui would have no connection to Xu Liang.
Nothing was caused by Xu Liang, he never disclosed anything to Liu Jinshui, nor did he think about letting anyone go to Upper City to file a case!
Everything done had nothing to do with this lawyer, it was all Zhu Haoyi’s fault!
"Old Zhang..." Liu Jinshui murmured, his heart pounding like a drum, gripping the suitcase a bit tighter.
Xu Liang lay silently resting on the opposite bunk.
Until...
A body leaned down halfway from the upper bunk, suspended in mid-air looking at Xu Liang.
The person stared at Xu Liang for a mont, then suddenly his face lit up with surprise.
"Hey, Brother Liang!?"
The voice sounded sowhat familiar...
Xu Liang paused slightly, his eyebrows twitching, then he opened his eyes.
The mont he opened his eyes, he saw a man hanging upside down like a monkey, with half his body extended.
The person was looking at him with a face full of delight.
This is...
"Wang Chao!?"
Xu Liang was slightly stunned, any trace of sleep vanished, he was genuinely surprised, imdiately sat up, looking at him and asked in confusion:
"Why are you on the train?"
After the case in Qingshi City, Wang Chao was called back to be berated in Hanhai City, so why would he be on the train at this ti?
Wang Chao was just about to open his mouth to explain.
But unexpectedly...
From the bunk above Liu Jinshui’s head ca a middle-aged voice.
"The higher-ups wanted this kid to go to Upper City to receive an award, for sothing like going solo into enemy territory and catching them red-handed...."
Soone else!?
Liu Jinshui’s heart tightened, instinctively holding the suitcase closer, slightly bowing his head.
Xu Liang looked upwards.
He saw a middle-aged man lying on the bed, resting with his eyes closed, right there over Liu Jinshui’s head, and this man was...
"Captain Chen?"
Xu Liang raised an eyebrow, a trace of a smile appeared on his face.
"Are you all heading to Upper City?"
The person was indeed Chen Changchun, the captain of the criminal investigation team in Hanhai City!
Hearing movent, Chen Changchun opened his eyes, glanced at Xu Liang, then smacked his lips, feeling a bit uninterested, but added:
"We have to go, and apart from the police, the court and the prosecutor’s office also have to send people, like..."
Chen Changchun thought for a mont and said:
"You know Judge Zhao, right? He went to Upper City the day before yesterday."
The ’Human Experint Case’ was revealed on June 1st.
Now it was June 16th, half a month had passed, and public opinion hadn’t subsided, but rather intensified.
Of course, mainly due to follow-up compensation plans and penalties.
The case stirred up quite a storm, Zhao Yi had to occasionally go to Upper City for etings.
It’s just...
Chen Changchun was sowhat puzzled...
"What are you going to Upper City for?"
Chen Changchun flipped his eyes open, staring at Xu Liang, raising an eyebrow.
At this ti, even if he’s not a lawyer, he knows that taking advantage of the popularity to develop the law firm is the most important thing.
Why waste ti going to Upper City for no reason?
Xu Liang spoke up, "Visiting relatives."
Visiting relatives!?
Aren’t all this guy’s relatives in Hanhai City? Where are the relatives in Upper City....
"Xiaoyang misses her dad, so I’m taking people over to have a look." Xu Liang added another sentence, which dispelled Chen Changchun’s doubts.
Of course, there’s another unresolved question...
"Is this person your friend?"
Chen Changchun turned sideways, glancing down at Liu Jinshui.
He scrutinized the other’s face for a mont, his sharp eyes imdiately locking on the missing left hand.
With decades of experience, he instantly knew this was not an accident-induced amputation but was cut off by a machete!
Furthermore, the ti of the amputation was definitely recent!
Within no more than two months!
Chen Changchun squinted his eyes, finally focusing his gaze on that box.
"You’ve been holding that package ever since you got on the train... What’s in that package?"
As his words fell.
Liu Jinshui felt his whole body stiffen, as if all his blood had solidified.
His breathing grew heavier.
Until...
"He’s a worker from Zhengyang City." Xu Liang just explained lightly.
As for what’s in the box... Xu Liang didn’t know.
He really didn’t know, as he had never opened the box to look, and Liu Jinshui never told him!
And Chen Changchun...
"Zhengyang City?"
Hearing this slightly unfamiliar na, Chen Changchun paused, then ca to an understanding.
Zhengyang City... In that place, anything people do is reasonable.
It’s normal for ordinary workers there to be a bit wary, given the high cri rate. Careless ones really might get killed!
And what’s in the box couldn’t be a human head, that would be impossible...
Most probably, it’s just money inside.
These days, a bunch of honest migrant workers, the first thing they do when getting on the train is to grip onto whatever holds their money tightly, fearing it will be stolen by others.
But unfortunately, this kind of behavior is akin to a beacon on the sea.
Practically announcing to thieves where your money is!
"You risk getting checked by the railway police like this, and then having a bunch of money would surely get you robbed."
Chen Changchun lost interest, turned back his body, and yawned.
"Just put it next to your pillow."
Liu Jinshui promptly obeyed.
Seeing this, Xu Liang’s face showed a smile. Wang Chao still had a strong desire to chat, but unfortunately, Xu Liang was too lazy to bother with this foolish kid and just continued to lie down, taking a short nap.
...
Around one-thirty in the afternoon.
Countless shadows stood up, lining up in the hallway.
The train slowly pulled into the station, the intense shaking made those who had been ready, standing at the door, stumble slightly.
The box in Liu Jinshui’s arms was like a pair of dice, making a "thud, thud" sound.
Chen Changchun took a glance, though curious, he didn’t ddle in affairs and continued waiting to disembark.
Soon.
"Hiss~!"
The train doors opened, and crowds surged out from inside.
Xu Liang and Chen Changchun exchanged glances, then halted on the platform.
"Alright, since everyone has things to do, let’s not gather, stay in touch if there’s anything." Chen Changchun said, smoking.
Xu Liang agreed.
Their goals were different, so naturally, they couldn’t gather.
Chen Changchun had to go to the police station, Wang Chao was planning to see his biological father, while Xu Liang was planning to wander around.
Just....
"Hey, old brother, are you also going to the court?"
With Wang Chao’s familiar personality, he could pry information from anyone’s mouth.
Liu Jinshui held the box, nodding reluctantly.
Hearing this, Wang Chao was delighted:
"Isn’t that a coincidence? My dad works at the court!"
"Are you going to file a case or what at the court? Old brother, eting is fate, I can get my dad to arrange sothing for you?"
During the conversation.
Wang Chao thought of the other’s severed wrist and Chen Changchun’s evaluation of Zhengyang City.
His super brain began to work with super intelligence!
Clearly.
The other had lost a hand, wanting to sue the perpetrator for intentional injury!
"Hmm... hmm..." Liu Jinshui still remained silent.
But Wang Chao didn’t care about this, just patted his shoulder, smiling:
"Co on, I’m familiar with Upper City."
"You might not know where the court is since you’re new, I’ll lead you there!"
Although his hotown is Hanhai City, he has lived in Upper City for so ti, usually having to go to the court to et Wang Yao.
Even so senior judges recognized him, as for the location of the court... no kidding, Wang Chao could lead Liu Jinshui there with his eyes closed!
Once he finished.
Without caring if the other agreed or not, he waved a hand, stopping a taxi by his side, he pushed Liu Jinshui onto the car, then plopped down in the passenger seat.
Before long, the car was slowly heading towards the court in Upper City.
