Chapter 47: A Lawyer Worse Than a Beast

After Xu Bai finished speaking, Liu Qiang’s expression instantly became a little dazed.
This was not because Xu Bai said that such an awesome person was not allowed to exist in Feng City, but because of Homeland Security.
Although he was not a transcendent, this did not mean that he was not one of Night Rose’s people. He was one of them. Moreover, he was the one who volunteered to stay behind to deal with the police station.
Liu Qiang thought that this time, he would at most come to the police station for a few days like the previous few times. After a while, he would swagger out like before.
But…
When Liu Qiang heard Xu Bai mention Homeland Security, his heart skipped a beat.
Were they targeted by Homeland Security this time?
When Liu Qiang thought of this, he could not help but swallow his saliva.
He took the blame not because he wanted to, but because now that Sun Qinya was dead, the real boss would definitely be angry when he returned. If he took the blame this time, not only would he not be punished when the boss returned, but he might even benefit from the misfortune. He would be valued by the boss and brought into the world of transcendents.
Right now?
Could it be that the boss, Xiao Jingnan, had been caught by Homeland Security?
A thought couldn’t help but flash through Liu Qiang’s mind. Then, he raised his head and looked at Xu Bai, who was sitting calmly opposite him with a disdainful expression.
The more he looked at Xu Bail s expression, the more he felt that something was wrong. He even began to feel that his guess was very likely true.
I can’t.
He only took the blame because of the subsequent benefits. He was not the kind of person who liked to take the blame.
The more Liu Qiang thought about it, the more flustered he became. He did not notice at all that this might be Xu Bail s trap.
However, this was very normal.
After all, one could not expect such a simple and crude lackey to have high intelligence. There were very few lackeys with both martial strength and intelligence.
Liu Qiang thought for a moment. After being fooled by Xu Bai, he instantly lost his previous aura. He looked up at Xu Bai and said, “The group who took the note…”
Before he could finish his sentence.
The door of the interrogation room was violently pushed open.
A gray-haired Lawyer in a suit and tie pushed open the door and said loudly,
“Mr. Liu, from now on, don’t say a word.”
Following behind, Su Meng, who failed to stop him, made an apologetic gesture at Xu Bai.
Liu Qiang was slightly stunned when he saw who it was.
Xu Bai also looked at the Lawyer who walked in. He crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes.
The gray-haired Lawyer placed his briefcase on the interrogation table and looked at Xu Bai. “Agent Xu, this should be the second time we’ve met.”
The corners of Xu Bails mouth curled up. “Lawyer Zhang.”
Yes.
He knew Lawyer Zhang. He had just met him not long ago. Last month, when the human trafficker complained about him abusing violence, it was this Lawyer Zhang who, as the human trafficker’s Lawyer, complained to the internal inspection of the police station about Xu Bai.
Lawyer Zhang glanced at his bloody client, Liu Qiang, and then looked at Xu Bai. He said in a surprised tone, “I didn’t expect that Agent Xu’s temper hasn’t changed at all. He still likes to abuse his power.”
Xu Bai grabbed his coffee cup from his seat and stood up. He looked at Lawyer Zhang. “I didn’t expect this either. I thought that Lawyer Zhang defended human traffickers because of his professional ethics. Now that I see Lawyer Zhang defending him again, I know that Lawyer Zhang didn’t defend him because of his professional ethics. Instead, Lawyer Zhang is a scumbag himself. No, it should be said that he’s a scumbag who’s even worse than a beast.’
Su Meng, who was standing at the door, heard this and her expression changed. She quickly looked at Xu Bai.
She really wanted to say that it was good.
But…
Lawyers were a very annoying profession, especially for law enforcement officers like them.
How many suspects had left the police station because of these unprofessional lawyers? It could be said that without these lawyers, the crime rate in Feng City would have decreased by at least 30%.
Lawyer Zhang’s expression changed when he heard Xu Bail s unconcealed insults. “Agent Xu, are you insulting me?”
Su Meng, who was at the door, tried her best to look at Xu Bai.
Don’t let him set you up.
Xu Bai glanced at Su Meng at the door and smiled.
Su Meng could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
The next second.
Xu Bail s gaze landed on the scumbag Lawyer Zhang’s face. “Aren’t you slandering me too? Your client knocked his face on the table. If you don’t believe me, you can bring your client for a fingerprint test.”
With that, he revealed a bright smile and took off his disposable gloves in front of Lawyer Zhang before walking out the door.
Although this Lawyer’s timing was a little coincidental.
But…
It didn’t matter. He already knew what he needed to know.
After Xu Bai left the interrogation room, he ignored Lawyer Zhang, who was clamoring to complain about him and his client who was in a daze, and brought Su Meng to Chen Shan.
“Shan’er.”
“What do you want?”
Chen Shan glanced at Xu Bai, who was walking over from behind, and his tone was very cold. It was obvious that he was still holding a grudge for being called Xu Bail s 57th female colleague.
Xu Bai ignored him.
“Do me a favor. Check the phone records of Lawyer Zhang who just came in.
Take a look and see who contacted him.”
“Is there a search warrant?”
“That won’t do.”
Chen Shan crossed his arms and leaned against the chair as he said expressionlessly. Then, he looked at Xu Bai. The meaning in his eyes was very clear. Unless he apologized, he would be dreaming about this favor.
Seeing this, Xu Bai did not hesitate. He snapped his fingers at Su Meng, who was standing at the side and turned to leave. “Mengmeng, let’s go to the Information Department to look for…”
Chen Shan raised his eyebrows. “Wait a minute.”
Xu Bai smiled and stopped walking. He turned around and looked at Chen Shan. “Didn’t you say you can’t do it without a search warrant?”
Chen Shan took a deep breath and lowered his request. “Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, you’ll cover my three meals.”
Xu Bai did not hesitate. “Deal.”
Chen Shan frowned slightly. He glanced at Xu Bai, who agreed without any hesitation, and felt that something was wrong. After all, Xu Bai was famous for being stingy.
That’s not right.
Other than never being stingy when it came to paying for his sister’s medical bills, he was exceptionally stingy in other aspects, be it to himself or to others.
Chen Shan suspected that Xu Bai was trying to intimidate him, but he had no evidence. He could only look at Xu Bai skeptically. “If you lie to me, don’t even think about me helping you in the future.”
Xu Bai laughed. “Don’t worry, I promise I won’t.’
If I come to the police station tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
Xu Bai thought to himself.
