Chapter 661: Chapter 422: The ’Meat Worm’ on the Bed! [Two-in-One, Seeking Monthly Ticket!]

Any kind of scar falls into three categories.

First, self-harm.

Second, accident.

Third... deliberate harm by others!

Of course, there are congenital issues, but congenital problems are usually not scars, but rather underdevelopment or deformities.

But as it stands, it is obvious with Zhao Jie; it is not a congenital scar.

But rather.....

"Artificial."

Looking at Liu Qing beside him, Xu Liang frowned and touched his chin in thought.

Indeed, the injuries on Zhao Jie were neither congenital nor accidental.

100% due to human factors!

Yang Ruoxi, standing beside him, felt a chill upon hearing this, clicking her tongue as she looked at the photos, then felt a pang of compassion.

If it truly was caused by another person... Just imagining the scene of the harm is disturbing enough!

Brutal? Bloody? Probably even more than that!

"Yes."

Liu Qing nodded, then sighed helplessly:

"However, based on the examination, the injuries Zhao Jie sustained mostly occurred before she appeared in the sewer."

"In other words, she was split into two cases."

"The first case is a criminal harm case, which the police are currently investigating, but there are no clues about the perpetrator so far."

"The second case is much simpler, which is what Mr. Xu, you are currently responsible for."

Saying this, Liu Qing pointed to the contract in front of him.

The second case is an administrative lawsuit, involving the injuries from corrosive liquid after the person appeared in the sewer.

"Previously, the Law Association approached several law firms... but unfortunately, no one dared to take it on."

"In the end, Li Tao, Lawyer Li, contacted you, out of desperation."

Liu Qing discreetly complimented the people around him.

Those who didn’t take the case were also being responsible to the client, after all, this kind of case... though it targets administration, making it relatively easy to win, the client’s inability to communicate may lead to unexpected issues!

Upon hearing this.

Li Tao beside him straightened his back, frequently glancing at Xu Liang.

Xu Liang paid no mind to these little actions.

He lowered his head, pondered the case for a while, and ultimately.....

"I’ll give it a try."

Xu Liang looked over for a moment, then took a deep breath, picked up the contract, and decisively signed his name.

The case is tricky.

But if no one else takes it...

We can’t just stand by and watch the victim perish.

"Currently, where is the client residing?"

After signing the contract, Xu Liang suddenly looked up and glanced at the people in front of him.

Upon hearing this, Liu Qing thought for a moment, then provided an address.

"Upper City Police Department."

"After her injuries were stabilized, she temporarily returned to the police department for investigation."

The police are responsible for the criminal investigation of the harm inflicted on Zhao Jie. ℯ

Previously, higher priority was given to treatment over criminal investigation, hence the wait at the hospital, only now starting to seek breakthroughs from the ’body.’

Had it been a regular person, they might have disclosed information during treatment.

But Zhao Jie... she is unable to convey any information!

"Alright, then I’ll trouble Lawyer Liu to make a trip."

"Next, I will go to the police department to gather information from the client on this case."

Xu Liang nodded and stood up.

Seeing that this hot potato had finally been taken by a competent person, Liu Qing smiled.

He stood up promptly to shake Xu Liang’s hand.

"Thank you, Lawyer Xu, if there’s anything you need help with... feel free to tell the Law Association!"

"What help the Law Association can offer, they will do their best to provide."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Liu Qing packed up his briefcase, leaving the clues and information behind, and swiftly departed the scene.

As for the remaining three people...

"Should we go check out the sewer first?"

Yang Ruoxi pondered for a moment, then looked at Xu Liang and asked.

Since it’s an administrative case, the breakthrough should naturally be sought from ’policy + facts.’

The arrangement of the sewer pipelines and the workers’ construction behavior can all influence the case!

Xu Liang didn’t rush to answer; he thought for a moment and glanced at Li Tao beside him, showing a gentle smile.

"Junior Li, are you interested in joining my law firm?"

Li Tao, upon hearing this, immediately straightened up, like a student called upon to recite in class, replied earnestly:

"Yes! Senior, actually, I’ve had a dream since I was little, I dreamed of joining..."

Before he could finish, Xu Liang interrupted.

"Stop dreaming."

"Because your dream has come true!"

Saying this, he smiled warmly and said to Li Tao with affection:

"I announce, from now on, Junior Li is an integral member of my law firm!"

"Of course, you’ll still have to start with an internship."

Legal internships are necessary; naturally, they must involve signing a contract, for now, it’s just a verbal agreement.

Li Tao shuddered and became somewhat at a loss, stuttering:

"Senior... don’t I have to take a written and oral exam first?"

"Exempt!"

Xu Liang reaffirmed.

Under normal circumstances, it’s hard to gauge the abilities of someone exempt from exams, but...

Remember, not every lawyer is acquainted with the President of the Upper City Law Association.

Nor does everyone have a ’billionaire father of mine’!

Even if he is a law student from a marginal school, Xu Liang had no reason not to accept him.

Upon hearing this, a sense of joy brewed, leaving Li Tao overjoyed, and he clenched his fists subconsciously.

’This is my strength!’

’Emerging from so many people, and passing without exams... Indeed, the greater the ability, the faster the rise!’
