Chapter 2: The connection is beyond words

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Based on his experience, the man before him possesses a demeanor characteristic of someone engaged in the judicial profession. Prosecutors and judges typically do not find themselves in such a state of disarray; therefore, it is highly probable that he is the best lawyer that a resident of the slums can afford, or perhaps a legal aid attorney

Is it really that coincidental

After receiving Gu Zheng's identification, Old John scrutinized it for a while and found no flaws whatsoever

I am the lawyer appointed by the court for Niall, and this guy suddenly appears claiming to be Niall's defense attorney. He doesn't look like a formal lawyer given his age, and he refuses to show his credentials when I ask to check them. He clearly looks like someone who is guilty and nervous.

On the second day of arriving in this world, Gu Zheng was once again held at gunpoint

The police officer glanced casually and then lowered his head to begin operating, unsure if he could clearly see the name on the certificate in such a short time

First, even in the case of legal aid, the interests of the client must be prioritized. However, Denton, driven by a momentary conflict of emotions, has wantonly slandered Moore. How can one expect him to wholeheartedly defend the client?

The old printer inside emitted a creaking sound, and the disheveled man named Denton, who was sorting through documents nearby, suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with confusion as he stared at Gu Zheng: "Who are you? I am the court-appointed legal aid lawyer for Moore!"

Is it you

Gu Zheng was not too surprised; after all, it was a case of traversing and having a system. He quickly adapted to his new role. Since he had been granted a new life, there were naturally gains as well as losses

Caught between disappointment and surprise, he suddenly noticed the alma mater above and a look of disdain immediately appeared at the corner of his mouth: "You graduated from Harvard?"

"What happened?" A voice came from behind, vaguely familiar to Gu Zheng. "So it's old Danton. Why have you come to our substation again? Don't tell me another pest is about to be taken advantage of by you!"

Following the navigation, Gu Zheng crossed a street and discovered that the destination was the Los Angeles City Division 69.

Secondly, the documents have been verified by the personnel inside the window. When he requests a re-verification in front of the other party, isn't that undermining the authority of the police officer inside the window

Only... he can still fight for justice when he returns to the country

Swish!

After Gu Zheng turned his head, Terry, who was standing next to Old John, exclaimed excitedly

Gu Zheng felt a surge of complaints in his heart, as his mind and the book bag began to spin rapidly, contemplating how to find a reason to cover up the system

Upon seeing that someone was backing him up, Denton immediately began to chatter incessantly, allowing the newcomers, Old John and Terry, to quickly understand the sequence of events

When the down-and-out man obtained a pass from the window, the police officer inside, seeing Gu Zheng standing at a distance, impatiently shouted: "Next!"

Hoo.

Remind the host to arrive at the target location within 5 minutes, otherwise it will be considered as giving up this task, and the next task will be issued immediately

Gu Zheng coldly looked at Denton in front of him, no wonder he had fallen into such a state; in just a short sentence, he had committed two taboos

Without waiting for him to speak, Denton rudely reached out his hand, attempting to snatch the lawyer's license from Gu Zheng's grasp, while saying, "With your childish demeanor, you must be a student from some law school known to his family, right? How dare you impersonate a lawyer? Are you trying to get on the California Bar Association's blacklist?"

Without turning his head, Zeng Zheng, who once could analyze the other person's expression solely through sound, immediately recognized the original owner of this voice, which was Old John whom he encountered yesterday

The monthly tasks have been issued. Please follow the navigation to the designated location to understand the task details. You have only three opportunities to decline a task each month, and currently, you have 33 remaining. Please strive to fight for justice!

In the last sentence, Gu Zheng emphasized the word "recheck," which undoubtedly highlights the face of the police officer who checked the documents before the incident.

The police officer inside the window said irritably: "If you want to argue, go argue outside. If it turns into a fight, be prepared to be detained. You all go in together. If his identity is verified, you can completely apply to cancel Moore's legal aid."

In the American Empire, or rather in a seemingly parallel world of the American Empire, with two completely distinct legal systems, what justification does he have to fight for justice

A gentle breeze swept by, and no one paid any attention to Denton

A chill flickered in Gu Zheng's eyes as he turned his hand, causing Denton's movement to miss its mark.

As Terry, filled with excitement, brushed past, Gu Zheng and Old John exchanged a glance, catching a glimpse of malice in each other's eyes

As he walked and calculated, Gu Zheng discovered that it was indeed insufficient. It seems he must quickly rent out the remaining four rooms, as tax reporting is set to begin next month, which is a headache to think about.

Gu Zheng, who had been silent all along, suddenly interjected: "My documents have already been checked by the police at the 69th precinct, and he has no authority to inspect my documents. Detective John, do you need to assist your colleague in rechecking?"

Be careful, it never hurts, right, George

The connection is indescribably wonderful

Believe it or not, I can go on strike in a matter of minutes to show you

Gu Zhengcai approached and presented his lawyer's certificate to the portly police officer at the window, feigning calmness as he said: "I am Mo Er's lawyer, and I now request to meet with him"

As he was about to leave, he glanced up at the second floor and inwardly muttered: "There is a mandatory task to complete every month. If I were to be dismissed by the firm, would just one tenant on the second floor be enough to cover my expenses for a month in Los Angeles?"

After a moment of hesitation, Gu Zheng discovered that the system information had changed once again. This time, it instructed him to enter the sub-bureau and find a man named Mo Er to understand the details of the case, and then decide whether to accept this unpaid commission.

Following the destitute man, Gu Zheng ascended to the second floor, not daring to get too close, merely observing from a distance

After lingering for a while in front of the 69th precinct, Gu Zheng found an opportunity to follow a man in a worn-out suit who was walking briskly, and entered the precinct.

This diploma from Harvard Law School certainly did not bestow upon him any knowledge

Denton stood empty-handed, noticing the coldness in Gu Zheng's eyes, yet he still showed no sign of remorse. Instead, he continued to shout loudly: "Oh, quite the temper you have! This is the police station, and I suspect you are an accomplice of Mo Er. Is anyone there? Is anyone there? Hurry up and arrest him!"

Gu Zheng stood up expressionlessly, took his documents and keys, and walked out the door

It is evident that the encounter yesterday afternoon did not leave a good impression on either party

At that moment, the system, which had been silent all night, suddenly emitted a sound

Such individuals, not to mention engaging in intrigues within large law firms, are likely to lose more than they win even in trivial cases, and are fundamentally unworthy of being called competent lawyers

Thinking of the graduation certificate in his room, Gu Zhengting straightened his chest and calmly said: "Yes"

Old John shouted towards the window, and after receiving an affirmative response, he turned back, extended his hand, and said with a smile: "Additionally, please call me Sheriff John!"

Denton's tone suddenly lowered by three points, yet he remained relentless: "I just want to investigate further; perhaps they really are accomplices?"

The connection is beyond words
