Who Made Him a Lawyer?-Chapter 51 - 47: "Raise My Pay!" Professional Ethics!

Chapter 51: Chapter 47: "Raise My Pay!" Professional Ethics!

"Don’t know."

The boss shook his head, reminisced for a moment, and continued:

"He looks unfamiliar, very unfamiliar, never seen him before, seems... around forty?"

"He looked quite thin, seems like a gust of wind could blow him down."

"Hmm... and there’s a pig smell, but it’s coming from the vehicle. Although the person appeared a bit sloppy, he didn’t have the pig smell."

"It’s just that the meat was covered with feed and pig dung, damn, made me wash it several times..."

Very thin, looks fifty, vehicle with pig smell...

Chen Changchun’s eyes focused, automatically filtering the key words.

"Do you remember specifically how he looked?"

Upon hearing this, the boss gave him a strange look, then raised his handcuffed hands, pointing into the distance.

"The market has surveillance, can’t you check the footage?"

Upon hearing this, everyone followed his direction.

They saw, in a highly hidden corner, a surveillance camera pointing at them silently.

"Two months ago, Hongfu Street was cordoned off by the police, and the market manager was afraid something might happen too, so they spent a lot of money to install a new camera," the boss explained.

Newly installed!?

Isn’t this coming in handy!?

Chen Changchun’s face showed joy.

Unexpectedly, Chen Wei’s death on June 1st could actually aid the current case!

The boss chuckled again:

"I heard someone died then, right in front of a law firm that hadn’t opened long..."

"No idea which unlucky fellow was so ill-fated."

Xu Liang: ?

Xu Liang’s face darkened, looking at the oblivious boss, he took a deep breath.

"You’re talking too much!"

"Chao."

Wang Chao nodded, "Got it!"

Immediately, he stuffed the boss’s mouth with a radish again.

Seeing this, Chen Changchun didn’t say much.

He looked around the scene, then solemnly spoke.

"Squadron Leader Liu!"

"I’m here." Liu Jin jogged over from afar.

"Send some people out, use the guise of ’camel meat being diseased meat’ to buy back the deceased’s remains."

"Also take all the evidence away, block the case information to avoid panic, put up police tapes, send some people for visitation, leave a few undercover to stake out, and the rest..."

He looked at the surveillance camera.

"Bring the surveillance footage."

"Head back to the squad!"

"Yes!"

With everything designated, countless people began working under the scorching sun.

Soon, the boss was escorted and put into the police car.

...

Five o’clock in the afternoon.

They returned to the police station without rushing to conduct a second investigation on the meat vendor boss.

Chen Changchun first took his team to the office at the police station.

"Squeak~"

The office door opened, and several people walked in threes and twos.

Chen Changchun looked at Liu Jin ahead, frowned solemnly, "First, let’s check the scene surveillance and draft a wanted notice."

Liu Jin nodded, quickly opened the computer inside, receiving the transferred surveillance footage.

Soon, the video footage showed up on the screen.

The upper right corner timestamp read August 13, yesterday afternoon at half-past four.

The screen displayed the vegetable market scene; although in black and white, the lively crowd still gave off a bustling noise.

The video continued playing.

Soon, a tricycle suddenly appeared at the market entrance.

"Stop!"

Chen Changchun’s eyes sharpened, uttering a word, Liu Jin hastily pressed the pause button.

Instantly, the screen froze on a frame showing the meat vendor, and this frame clearly showed the person’s appearance!

The picture was a bit blurry.

But it vaguely showed a slender, skeleton-like middle-aged man.

Seeing this, Yang Ruoxi frowned slightly, something suspicious in her eyes.

Xu Liang noticed the anomaly and glanced at her.

"What is it? Do you know him?"

Yang Ruoxi looked again, then shook her head, "He looks familiar, but I don’t know why he looks familiar..."

"Think a bit more." Xu Liang suggested.

Meanwhile, Chen Changchun displayed his professionalism.

"Short hair, 1.7 meters tall, weighs no more than 125 pounds, rough features, square face, worn in an old gray outfit..."

Liu Jin noted everything down, preparing to find someone later to draw the suspect’s photo for a reward.

After speaking.

Chen Changchun suddenly paused, turned to Xu Liang.

"Lawyer Xu, do you have anything to add?"

His gaze was full of formal respect.

"No..." Xu Liang was about to shake his head, but he was interrupted.

"Don’t worry, the police will offer substantial rewards, definitely higher than last time!" Chen Changchun coaxed.

Higher than last time?

"How about 100 an hour? Bonus counted separately." Chen Changchun asked tentatively.

is already high, Chen Changchun’s daily salary isn’t even a hundred.

One day, Xu Liang could earn almost a month and a half of salary without benefits!

But Yang Ruoxi came back from her thoughts, suspiciously looking at the two.

What’s higher than last time?

Xu Liang didn’t reply, instead, his gaze focused, body straightened.

Once money was discussed, he seemed like a different person, quickly deciding:

"Investigate nearby small pig farms, the murder scene, and the dismemberment site are likely there!"

Pig farm?

Chen Changchun was stunned, thought for a moment, then his eyes lit up, hurriedly commanding Liu Jin.

"Follow the direction the tricycle left in!"

Liu Jin was a bit confused but it didn’t stop him from following orders.

Wang Chao scratched his head.

Before he could speak, Xu Liang voluntarily explained:

"The tricycle is severely aged, heavily worn, according to witnesses, it emits a pig smell, and inside there’s pig manure and feed."

"I’ve seen parts of the corpse; professional dismemberment tools are needed, ordinary knives won’t suffice."

"And the suspect appears very unfamiliar..."

Severe tricycle aging indicates long-term use, with pig smell, manure, and feed representing a long time dealing with pigs.

This suspicion mostly rests on the pig farm.

Small pig farms typically have slaughter tools, just meeting dismemberment criteria!

Transporting pigs using a tricycle implies limited quantity, small-scale farming, generally privately selling pork to nearby vendors rather than large meat factories.

Given the fresh corpse took a short trip before reaching the market.

Side proof the dismemberment site isn’t far from the market!

And multiple witnesses mentioned unfamiliarity...

"This suggests, the vehicle likely belongs to the pig farm, not the suspect."

"Check if there are police reports of the vehicle theft; if not..."

Saying this, Xu Liang paused.

He pointed to the screen, at the meat blocks displayed before all the residents.

"Then he should be the boss."

At the market, Xu Liang seemed unserious...

Yet, he remembered everything throughout the process!

Not only remembered, he calculated information based on clues!

Perhaps... at the scene, he had already thought of this, because deducing these clues was unrelated to the surveillance!

Realizing this, Chen Changchun couldn’t help but say, "You should’ve worked as a motherf***ing detective!"

"Being a detective can’t earn me 100 bucks an hour."

Xu Liang laughed.

Hearing this, Chen Changchun was at a loss but didn’t care and turned to Liu Jin beside him:

"You personally investigate this matter!"

"Any information..."

"You must notify me immediately!"
