Who Made Him a Lawyer?
Chapter 589 - 391: Even Three Heads Wouldn’t Be Enough! (Part 2)Chapter 589: Chapter 391: Even Three Heads Wouldn’t Be Enough! (Part 2)
The slap mark on the face...
The police were a bit suspicious, recalling the memory just now, but couldn’t remember if the mark was on the other person’s face before.
Could it be Feng Xiang who hit him?
The police recalled the lawyer from earlier, thought for a moment, and then shook his head.
The lawyer is an agent, only crazy people would hit clients for no reason...
"It’s getting late, let’s sleep."
The police casually said and then sat on a bench to continue his duty.
Sun Hu and Sun Biao lay on their sides on the bed.
Looking through the window of the hospital room at the ink-like night, their hearts grew heavier.
...
...
October 10th.
Eight in the morning.
Upper City University Hospital, inside the ward.
"Hmm..."
A muffled groan slowly sounded.
In the ward, the originally drowsy Xu Liang seemed to sense something and suddenly opened his eyes.
He saw.
Su Yu, who was lying on the bed, originally had a quiet face that suddenly moved, and his brow furrowed.
The sound wasn’t loud, but everyone around was highly nervous, just a whimper was enough to wake people up!
Yang Ruoxi opened her eyes from beside the bed, a bit dazed, then focused her gaze on Su Yu.
"Hey, Xiaoyu is awake!"
Although physically exhausted, Yang Ruoxi still showed a look of surprise.
Xu Liang didn’t speak, just stared at Su Yu without blinking.
Su Yu’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, and soon, those beautiful eyes slowly opened, revealing a hint of confusion.
At first, his vision was blurry, feeling only a few vague color blobs in front of him.
Moments later, these blurry blobs began to form, Su Yu froze for a moment, instinctively opening his mouth:
"Master..."
As soon as she spoke, she felt a dry throat, her brow instinctively furrowed.
Just about to sit up, she realized her right side was firmly fixed, unable to move an inch.
"Have some warm water to moisten your throat first."
Yang Ruoxi began to fuss around, pouring a cup of warm water from a teapot, babbling as she went.
Xu Liang, sitting beside the bed, stopped the attempt to move.
"Don’t move yet, your body has multiple fractures, according to the doctor, you need at least a month before trying to move."
"For these two days, just rest, Xiaoyang and I will take care of you."
"The teacher also came to see you last night, but couldn’t stay long due to age, and since there wasn’t much space in the ward, I let them go back first."
"..."
Hearing this.
Su Yu didn’t say anything, just gazed at him with a moved expression.
To be honest, at noon yesterday, when she fell into Xu Liang’s arms...
She felt her whole body go limp, thinking she was definitely going to die, the panic and powerlessness filled her wholly, creating an unprecedented fear.
"Senior brother, you..."
In a daze.
Su Yu’s eyes moved, looking at Xu Liang’s forehead, where a bandage was wrapped, clearly indicating a heavy hit.
If she remembered correctly...
Xu Liang, to save her, also hit his head on the ground...it wasn’t just an ordinary fall, but with the force of a truck!
"Just a minor injury, it’s nothing, as long as you’re awake it’s fine."
Xu Liang breathed a sigh of relief.
Her waking up meant just needing rest for these musculoskeletal injuries, nothing unexpected.
Yang Ruoxi came over with a water cup and, hearing the commotion, rolled her eyes and couldn’t help but reprimand:
"Stubborn to a fault!"
"Is a skull fracture a minor issue!?"
Saying this, Yang Ruoxi pointed to the wheelchair beside them.
Yes, Xu Liang told Wu Chengjun it was a minor issue, but apart from the slight concussion, there was also a slight fracture, the doctor recommended bed rest, which Xu Liang replaced with using a wheelchair.
"Senior brother, you..." Su Yu was moved, not knowing what to say.
But before finishing, Xu Liang directly interrupted.
"Junior sister, it’s good that you’re awake, rest on the bed for now, tell me what you want to eat later."
Xu Liang glanced at the time, smiled, and then sat in the wheelchair.
"I’ll go check on the case first."
After speaking.
Yang Ruoxi sighed helplessly and just followed behind him.
"Chasing a case with a skull fracture..."
She muttered for a moment.
Soon, she pushed Xu Liang out.
A concussion + fracture, ordinary people would probably wish to lie in bed 24 hours a day.
He, on the contrary.
Not only did he not rest, but even in a wheelchair, he insisted on delving into the investigation with Sun Hu and Sun Biao!
If Sun Hu knew...he’d probably instantly understand the meaning of Feng Xiang’s saying about being ’relentless’.
As for who Xu Liang was going to see...
Of course, it’s another victim in the case!
Or should I say, the postal worker.
Yang Ruoxi pushed the wheelchair, slowly heading to the other end of the corridor, eventually stopping at a single-person ward.
Through the glass on the door, one could clearly see a police officer inside, watching over.
"Knock knock knock~"
Xu Liang, sitting in the wheelchair, knocked on the door.
A moment later, the door in front opened.
"Creak~"
A police officer opened the door, looking at Xu Liang outside, and stepped aside to make way.
Xu Liang was supposed to meet with the postal worker last night, but unfortunately, the other party was also under anesthesia. Now that Su Yu had awakened... the other party shouldn’t be far behind.
Sure enough.
As soon as Xu Liang entered.
He saw a middle-aged man, about forty years old, wearing hospital clothes, leaning against the bedhead. His eyes were vacant, and one leg was still hung.
Xu Liang looked at the police officer, a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
The police officer whispered, "The right foot lost half of its sole, the right leg is fractured, woke up half an hour ago, and the mental state... a bit depressed."
Xu Liang nodded.
Then, he extended his own hand, pushed the wheelchair forward, and stopped beside Liu Ping.
"Hello, it’s nice to meet you for the first time. I’m Xu Liang, a lawyer, and without any mishaps, I’ll likely be your agent... the commission for this case is completely waived."
Xu Liang first showed a gentle smile and extended his hand.
The drowsy Liu Ping heard the sound and instinctively raised his head, seeing Xu Liang in hospital clothes and pausing in surprise.
"You... hello." Liu Ping extended his hand and shook it.
Before coming, Xu Liang had inquired about the other party’s information.
The case criminals Sun Hu and Sun Biao, this wasn’t their first time stealing stamps, in fact, it was their second.
Except... the first target was also Liu Ping!
A whole truck of stamps was stolen, the courier company demanded Liu Ping to bear all losses, though it was illegal, Liu Ping could only grit his teeth and swallow the loss.
This time again being stolen, naturally, he couldn’t let the goods slip away....
"Mr. Liu, right? I’d like to ask about the issue of the stamps lost both times."
Hearing that, Liu Ping hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"Please, go ahead."
"Alright."
Xu Liang pondered for a moment, then spoke:
"Regarding your responsibility for delivering stamps... I wonder if there are some more special stamps mixed in? I mean the ones with collectible value!"
Liu Ping shook his head, "No, most are the ones worth a few cents for writing letters commonly found on the market."
Saying this, he paused, and added:
"Some of the pricier ones weren’t stolen."
The expensive ones weren’t stolen, just as Wang Chao said.
But what’s different is....
"These are... rather inferior stamps."
Liu Ping suddenly opened his mouth to add a point hesitantly, "Though they are uniformly printed, due to various reasons, the factory often has inferior products."
"From the inferior products, I selected some acceptable ones, ultimately loaded onto my truck."
Inferior products?
The criminals stole not only useless stamps but also inferior ones!?
Xu Liang was a bit surprised, "Mr. Liu, are you the only one transporting this batch of inferior stamps? And what’s the inferiority?"
Liu Ping spoke:
"The quantity isn’t much, just this one truck. As for the inferiority... the waterproofing isn’t done well."
"They easily absorb water, once they absorb water, they’re ruined."
"The images are also printed rather blurry, and there might be misprints..."
That’s indeed quite inferior.
But... being so inferior just made Xu Liang more puzzled.
Why would the other party steal these at all!?
"Are you sure that he only took these stamps?" Xu Liang pressed on.
"I’m sure."
Liu Ping nodded, he compensated for all missing items, he couldn’t be mistaken.
Upon getting this answer, Xu Liang went silent.
He furrowed his brows, pondering in place for a long time, still couldn’t figure it out.
Until....
"Ring ring ring~!"
A sudden phone ringtone sounded.
The police officer snapped back to reality, instinctively pulled out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and answered while placing it by his lips.
"Hello? What’s up?"
"Hmm? Oh, he’s here."
"Are you sure?"
"Okay, I got it, I’ll go ask."
After saying this, the police officer walked to Xu Liang’s side, extended his hand, and patted Xu Liang’s shoulder.
"What’s up?"
Xu Liang turned his head, looking at him in surprise.
The police officer pointed at the phone and spoke:
"The perpetrator requested to contact the victim to apologize or something."
"Do you want to accept it?"
