Novel website. "Hello, Teacher Ren, is there a girl named Jing Se in your class? I am Jing Se's grandmother's lawyer. Her grandmother passed away in H country, and there is an estate that she needs to inherit."

Teacher Ren: "..."

Have scams really gotten more sophisticated?

Teacher Ren paused for three seconds and then said, "Say what you just said in H country's language. Don't say anything 'nonsense,' I can understand you."

Lawyer: "..." Is being a lawyer easy? And you still have to smile and stay strong to live on.

He repeated what he had just said in H language, speaking clearly and in standard Mandarin.

Teacher Ren breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"What's up with your call?"

The lawyer said, “It’s like this, Jing Se’s grandmother, who is also my client, Ms. Cen Yinyin, passed away last week. I was entrusted by her to handle her estate. She left all of her estate to her granddaughter, Jing Se. Because Jing Se transferred schools, I went to great lengths to hire a private investigator from your country to find out where her school is. I hope you can give her the phone number so I can talk to her in person. If all goes well, I can come to your country in half a month to complete the subsequent estate transfer procedures with her.”

Teacher Ren: "..."

She couldn't tell if it was true or false, but judging from the other person's attitude, she felt that what Fang said was true. However, scammers these days are very professional; they put on a convincing act, and once they're seen through, they can't fool anyone anymore.

"Teacher Ren, may I speak to the other party?" Linghu Lan asked softly.

Teacher Ren hesitated for a moment before handing the phone to Linghu Lan.

"Hello! I'd like to ask, why didn't you contact Jing Se's sister about this, but instead contacted Jing Se herself?"

"Jing Se's sister? Doesn't she only have one brother, Jing Xing?" The lawyer laughed on the phone. "I understand. You think I'm a fraud. That's alright. You can search for Ms. Cen Yinyin online. She's a very accomplished businesswoman in H country. You can find her information online. The reason we're looking for Jing Se instead of Jing Xing is twofold: first, because the will designates Jing Se as the heir; and second, because Jing Xing rejected Ms. Cen Yinyin's offer a long time ago. In fact, he didn't want to accept my client's gift. So, in the end, Ms. Cen Yinyin left her property to Jing Se. I'm telling you this, and you can verify it with the client."

"Okay! I will verify it. Also, I would like to ask how to legally minimize taxes when inheriting property across borders?"

"Wow! I really admire you. You're such a clever girl. You're still testing me. I can only tell you that we have to abide by the laws of any country we live in. But there's a lot of room for maneuver in this matter. Currently, relations between H country and your country aren't very friendly. If we can find a country that's friendly to both countries to use as a stepping stone to complete the inheritance, then we'll save a lot of money."

"Okay! Thank you!" Linghu Lan handed the phone to Teacher Ren and gave an OK sign.

Teacher Ren withdrew her surprised gaze, took the phone, spoke a few more words to the other party in a serious manner, gave a fax number for receiving materials, and then hung up.

After hanging up the phone, she stared intently at Linghu Lan.

"Were you communicating with the other party entirely in the language of country H?"

"Hmm!" Shouldn't we do it this way? How else will they know how powerful we are!
