The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress-Chapter 239 - : 090 Outlaw Madman Young Master Jiang_1

Chapter 239: 090 Outlaw Madman Young Master Jiang_1

Chi Yundai scanned the case and instantly knew it was yet another commonplace criminal matter.

He initially thought that since Director Chen was being so secretive, it must be some major incident or a big case.

But this…

It wasn’t even worth mentioning, any lawyer from Young Master Jiang’s team could handle it.

Cases with such clear causes and effects rarely vary much in outcome.

“If even this kind of case requires me, then that group of lawyers might as well pack up…” Chi Yundai placed the case file on the desk with a sneer.

Upon hearing Chi Yundai’s unabashed words, Director Chen’s temple throbbed several times. He coughed, covering his mouth with his left hand, and said in a lowered voice, “Chi Lu, this person is Miss Bai’s friend.”

“Fold me up,” Chi Yundai immediately sat up straight, reaching out to pick up the file again, “Miss Bai, to be frank, what I am best at is criminal litigation.”

His expression was austere and solemn.

If only he weren’t wearing that chef hat.

Bai Lian sat opposite him, slightly leaning against the back of her chair with a lazy posture, her slender, pale fingers tapping intermittently on the back of her phone, listening quietly to the conversation between the two.

“Alright, then I’ll leave it to you,” she paused her fingertip and gave thanks.

Chi Yundai waved his hand and began flipping through Zhang Shize’s file.

Five minutes later, he frowned slightly and asked, “What kind of sentence can you accept?”

Bai Lian didn’t speak, simply tilting her head to look at Yan Lu.

Yan Lu had inquired about lawyers relevant to this on the first day; she had also consulted two lawyers from Red Circle Firm introduced by Xu En.

This case had eyewitness testimony and video surveillance, a heinous and intentional murder. Cases like this normally resulted in imprisonment for no less than ten years under normal circumstances, but the other party’s lawyer was Zhao Jingzhou…

Thus, the best possible verdict for Zhang Shize might still be fifteen years of fixed-term imprisonment.

They all suspected that with the methods of the Liu Family, it was very possible to get a life sentence, or even… the death penalty.

Yan Lu looked at Chi Yundai.

Neither she nor Sister Xin had ever heard of Chi Yundai, especially with him wearing a neatly arranged chef hat.

Before Director Chen spoke up, neither Yan Lu nor Sister Xin took him for a lawyer.

“Fifteen…” Yan Lu was watching Chi Yundai as she began to speak, but when she uttered the first syllable, she distinctly saw Chi Yundai’s eyes narrow, “No, as long as it’s not the death penalty. Not the death penalty, that’s all.”

“Not the death penalty, that’s all?” Chi Yundai repeated expressionlessly.

He looked at Yan Lu, biting back curses, then turned his head somewhat speechlessly towards Director Chen—

[He wants me to get involved in a case where the verdict is anything but the death penalty?]

He might as well just use his toes to type.

Director Chen:

Perhaps realizing Chi Yundai felt a lack of trust,

“Lawyer Chi,” Sister Xin jumped in to explain on behalf of Yan Lu, “the plaintiff in this case has some background, and most importantly, they’ve engaged Zhao Jingzhou as their defense lawyer.”

No need to mention the Liu Family.

Zhao Jingzhou alone was enough to intimidate everyone.

“Red Circle’s Invincible General” wasn’t a nickname netizens had given him arbitrarily.

Sister Xin thought that upon mentioning this name, Lawyer Chi would show signs of backing off, but he didn’t even lift an eyelash.

“Fine,” Chi Yundai closed the file, emotionless, “I think I understand your requirements. If there’s any other information, contact me promptly.”

Having said that, he stood up and took his leave from Bai Lian, “Miss Bai, I’ll go get the cake out first, then head to the police station to follow up on the situation. Oh, and today’s cake is a new product with less sugar, very suitable for the elderly. I’ll have Yang Lin bring a piece to the school later.”

Timing it, the cake should be ready by now.

Chi Yundai left after speaking.

Director Chen wasn’t surprised; after bidding Bai Lian farewell, he followed Chi Yundai to discuss the case details, “We have a problem now, the suspect is uncooperative, won’t meet or talk…”

This was the real difficulty. If the suspect kept quiet, it didn’t matter if Chi Yundai or the Daluo Golden Immortal himself took on the case.

Getting a bit closer.

Bai Lian still had to head to school. She comforted Yan Lu, “Don’t worry, leave this matter to us for now.”

Director Chen and his team had never dropped the ball on important matters.

Bai Lian walked toward the school.

Behind her, Sister Xin said to Yan Lu, “I think Miss Bai’s friend seems quite reliable, I believe they can negotiate a reduced sentence for Little Brother Zhang.”

“Let’s hope so…” Yan Lu took a deep breath, rallying her spirits, “If there are any activities coming up, count me in, just leave out the day of the trial. I’ll take on the rest.”

No matter the outcome, she couldn’t collapse now.

If something really happened to Zhang Shize, his parents from the Zhang Family would still be waiting for her.
