Who Made Him a Lawyer? Chapter 105 101: Principles of Dissection

"Little Yang, what are you trying to do with that look?"

Xu Liang felt that the other person's gaze was very unsettling; it made him uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it.

Yang Ruoxi's eyes shifted slightly, then she chuckled and reached out to pick a grape from the fruit plate.

Her slender, jade-like fingers were about to put the grape into Xu Liang's mouth.

"Want to eat a grape?" She blinked.

"Nope." Xu Liang felt she was up to no good and was very wary.

"Also, did you wash your hands?"

Yang Ruoxi: ?

"My hands are very clean, okay!"

She huffed as she spoke, then leaned closer again, looking hopefully at Xu Liang.

"What did you see in the basent?"

Since yesterday morning, she wanted to know the answer to this question, pestering Xu Liang for a long ti.

But unfortunately... Xu Liang thought it would affect her ntal health, so he hadn't told her yet.

"You're still young, it's not suitable for you to know."

Xu Liang looked at her with a benevolent expression, making her feel very uncomfortable.

"The depths of this go beyond what you can handle."

Yang Ruoxi puffed up her cheeks, making an angry expression.

She had stayed up several nights for the case and saved Xu Liang's life at a crucial mont... How co she doesn't even have the right to know!?

"How old are you?" Yang Ruoxi opened her mouth to ask.

"23, why?" Xu Liang was a bit suspicious.

"I'm already 24!"

Yang Ruoxi seriously said, "In terms of age, you should call sister!"

"Now your sister wants to know what's down in the basent, are you going to tell or not?"

"No," Xu Liang rejected decisively.

Yang Ruoxi promptly turned to Wang Chao.

"Chao, what's in the basent!?"

Though Xu Liang refused to tell, she still had a brother!

Unfortunately.

"No idea."

Wang Chao shook his head; he had never been in the basent, how could he know anything about the so-called boiler room?

Yang Ruoxi looked at her useless little brother and fell silent.

A mont later, Yang Ruoxi widened her eyes again, silently staring at Xu Liang without saying a word, trying to make him feel guilty.

Ridiculous.

Xu Liang had no conscience!

He directly closed his eyes, simply not seeing her.

Seeing that Xu Liang was unfazed by any tactic, Yang Ruoxi felt quite helpless.

Finally, she squinted her eyes and spoke:

"You've been stuck in the hospital these days."

"Yes, it's nice to have a few days off, and the dical fees are waived." Xu Liang replied with a cheerful smile from the hospital bed.

"So what do you think about Lu Yao's contract?"

Yang Ruoxi exposed a fang, her eyes smiling into crescent shapes.

"Fifteen thousand, oh, considering Uncle Su's attitude, it should at least double to thirty thousand."

"Your clients haven't been able to contact you for days, even if they do, you can't carry out their assignnts, and your law firm has no partners... Those thirty thousand will be gone~"

"Lawyer Xu, you wouldn't want to lose this deal, right~"

Thirty thousand in 2004 is not the thirty thousand of a past life.

Back in those days, the average monthly salary was around a thousand.

If handled well, thirty thousand could allow several generations to take it easy for a few years!

Xu Liang suddenly opened his eyes.

He looked seriously at Yang Ruoxi, then unexpectedly broke into a smile.

"Good sister!"

For money... not a problem!

"Sister's here."

Yang Ruoxi showed a harmless and innocent smile.

"What does sister want to know?" Xu Liang smiled fawningly.

Yang Ruoxi restrained her expression.

She thought for a mont, recalling the bodies she saw covered by white cloth outside the orphanage.

With slight hesitation, she slowly began to speak:

"Those bodies in the basent... What's going on?"

Bodies...

Thinking of the boiler room in the basent, Xu Liang's smile gradually faded.

He looked at Yang Ruoxi, took a deep breath, and solemnly spoke:

"There is a boiler room in the basent!"

"The boiler room has four boilers built of cent, containing alkaline solution..."

Can such a boiler room exist?

Yes, it exists!

Why would anyone make it?

Because it makes money!

The underground industry is always profitable.

Illegal activities are the most profitable among profits!

So people will deny even their mothers for money, hence the boiler room scene.

Don't doubt, when there's money, soone will do anything!

Yang Ruoxi initially had a confused expression.

But as Xu Liang spoke word by word...

Her expression shifted from confusion to shock, and then from shock to horror!

Her red lips had now ford into an 'o' shape!

"This is the boiler room, a device used to stew bodies," Xu Liang said blandly.

Yang Ruoxi remained silent for a long ti, finally taking a deep breath and whispering:

"What a beast!"

Xu Liang nodded in agreent.

Indeed a beast, but...

Yang Ruoxi paused, then suddenly queried:

"Isn't the risk greater than the reward? If they want to do it, it'd generally be better to do it abroad."

Don't doubt the security of Eastern Country.

But also don't doubt the security of decades ago!

According to Yang Ruoxi's view from 2004, although Wang Hai's actions weren't exactly suicidal, the risk certainly outweighed the reward!

Since that's the case... why didn't the other party go abroad?

"Firstly, the reason the risk is smaller abroad is because they collude with the local authorities."

"As a foreigner, when you do these things abroad... you face two dangers."

"One, the local market will besiege you!"

"Two, the local authorities will besiege you!"

Xu Liang explained.

Like the Elephant Country, or the Lizard Country.

These places are the largest suppliers to the underground bone market, where people are not treated as humans!

On the surface, it may seem better to go there to kill and boil bones.

But... after you boil them, what will the local bone sellers sell?!

It's like snatching food from a tiger's mouth!

Then you'll have to face retaliation from the local criminal forces, and these guys aren't the police — it's your luck if they just kill you outright!

"So, places with criminal forces are definitely off-limits."

"And going to places without them often ans good security, so what's the difference from being in our country?"

"The only difference is, almost no one eats the market here, which ans you earn more dostically!"

Xu Liang slowly explained.

Let's use a vivid example.

Drugs!

Everyone in the world knows that in Eastern Country, drug dealers are wiped out wherever found, while over in Chicken Roll Country, it's a paradise for drugs.

So does that an going to Chicken Roll Country to deal drugs is very safe?

After all, the entire country has been overrun by drug dealers, and the authorities can't handle them, so why bother making drugs in Eastern Country?

But the reality is, drug dealers from other forces going there privately to sell....

Die as soon as they go!

Even the police need evidence, but black-on-black cri cares nothing for rules when interests are touched!

So, Wang Hai's choice is quite normal.

And the most crucial point is...

"You feel safe because of the sense of security given to you now."

"Wang Hai has been in this line for at least 20 years!"

"Back then, security... wasn't as stable as you think, so it didn't pose much risk to him."

"And now that security is stable, isn't Wang Hai desperately trying to go legit?"

With those words, Yang Ruoxi suddenly realized.

But at the sa ti, she felt a chill down her spine.

For money... even such things can be done.

Calling these people beasts is flattering them!

Yang Ruoxi fell into deep thought.

Clearly, Xu Liang's words had a significant impact on her worldview.

And in school, the teachers never explained such things...

"But these kinds of cases are very rare."

Xu Liang reassured Yang Ruoxi, allowing her to maintain so hope in life.

Yang Ruoxi nodded.

She hesitated for a while, until...

"Knock knock knock!"

The door was knocked again.

Everyone turned their heads to look at the main door, but this ti, before Yang Ruoxi could open it, it was already opened by soone from outside.

"Creak~"

A small gap appeared in the ward door.

A kid, about ten years old, poked his head through the gap, glancing around before finally fixing his gaze on Xu Liang.

His eyes lit up, and he imdiately said:

"Brother Xian!"

Is this...

Xu Ze?

Xu Liang paused for a mont, and before he could react, the whole door was pushed open.

"Creak~"

Three figures appeared at the doorway.

They were Xu Ze, Xu Fuqiang, and Zhao Ying.

Xu Liang raised an eyebrow.

"Second Uncle?"

"Why are you here?"

...

...

anwhile.

At the Hanhai City Police Station.

Inside the detention room.

Unlike usual, the number of guards in the detention room had increased significantly, with a considerable boost in security forces.

The reason being... there were two special people inside the detention room.

"Boss..."

Inside the detention room, Liu Shengjie, with parched lips, looked at the person next to him. His lips moved slightly, but he couldn't say anything.

After a long ti, he finally said:

"The boiler room was broken into ahead of ti..."

Neither Liu Shengjie nor Wang Hai looked as composed as before, appearing quite downcast in the detention room.

Especially Wang Hai, who was still in his pajamas, looking utterly worn out.

On November 1st, he was still in a deep sleep when the police knocked on his door, and before he even realized it, he was brought to the police station.

Hearing Liu Shengjie's words, Wang Hai felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart.

Honestly speaking.

If Liu Shengjie had let Xu Liang and Wang Chao go without threatening their lives, even if the police were called, it would take them so ti to arrive and they wouldn't barge in recklessly.

anwhile, there would definitely have been enough ti for Liu Shengjie to destroy so important docunts and then escape.

Yet, Liu Shengjie chose to capture the two instead.

And even with over twenty people, they still couldn't capture the two in a short ti!!!

Wang Hai took a deep breath, suppressing his anger.

"Fool!"

"Fool who can sneak into a museum!"

He was now seething with anger; to him, getting caught this ti was completely unexpected!

He had long been preparing to transition, to go legit.

For this, he had gradually given up the black business and shifted his funds towards charity!

According to his blueprint, even without killing, just eating off charity... would still be enormously profitable!

What?

You wonder how charity can be profitable without killing?

Naturally, by scraping the bones clean!

Using critically ill and terminal patients to attract donations, and once the money is in hand, Wang Hai would just clean it up and pocket it all.

Donating clothes to remote villages?

After laundering them, they would be exported abroad at high prices!

If there's a natural disaster in so region? Claim to be the first to provide disaster relief at a minimal cost, and attract large donations!

All these are money!

As for... what happens to those who need the money?

Nothing happens.

They just die!
