"real?"

Liu Jingzhong was skeptical. He scanned the smooth walls and empty ceiling, and after confirming that there were no cameras or similar devices, he lowered his voice and asked, "Are you sure that no one but you can hear us?"

"Go ahead and tell me!"

He Jun assured him, "I am a professional lawyer, and I know more about professional ethics than anyone else. You can speak freely without worry."

Since He Jun had said so, Liu Jingzhong no longer concealed anything and immediately recounted the details that he had just overlooked.

This included his promise to Long Shuai that if the other party could bring down Niangui Green Pepper Sauce Company and send Wang Qian to prison, he would give him 500,000 yuan.

After receiving Gu Zhijian's lawsuit, he felt a sense of crisis and went to West Street last night to meet with Scarface Pao, the underworld boss there, and offered a high reward for the heads of Gu Zhijian and Wang Qian.

"I was indeed the one who orchestrated this behind the scenes!"

After recounting everything he had done in one breath, Liu Jingzhong asked urgently, "In this situation, how are you going to help me clear my name?"

"I know what to do!"

He Jun smiled mysteriously, "Leave this to me. You just stay here and wait for the trial!"

"Are you sure you can clear my name?" Liu Jingzhong asked, half-believing.

“I’ve handled many cases like this. As long as you’re not lying, I can get you acquitted!” He Jun assured him confidently.

"Everything I just said is true, and there's nothing I'm hiding."

Liu Jingzhong asked, "Besides these, do you need to know anything else?"

"Let's leave it at that for now!"

He Jun put away his notebook and pen, placed them in his briefcase, and got up to leave.

"They're leaving already?" Liu Jingzhong was slightly taken aback.

“I have gathered enough information to help you with your defense in court. I will go back and prepare some materials.”

"How confident are you?" Liu Jingzhong pressed.

"Go to court with confidence."

He Jun gave Liu Jingzhong a reassuring look, then left without lingering. He had the police officer open the door.

Liu Jingzhong sat in the detention cell, his expression shifting constantly.

He increasingly felt that something was off about He Jun.

But upon closer reflection, I really can't quite put my finger on it.

He now regrets revealing everything.

If He Jun isn't as capable as he claims, wouldn't that have harmed him?

What puzzled him most was that, as his defense lawyer, shouldn't he be teaching him what to say and what not to say during the trial?

But He Jun never mentioned these things from beginning to end. He only tried to subtly entice him to tell the truth.

After he actually said it, the other person just left.

This is utterly baffling!

"Could there be something wrong with this He Jun?"

Just as he was becoming increasingly uneasy, He Jun had already left the police station.

And not long after, another lawyer arrived.

"Hello, my name is Zhu Chengan, and I am a lawyer. This is my lawyer's license."

Upon arriving at the police station, the young man took out his identification and said, "I am Liu Jingzhong's defense lawyer. I need to see the defendant."

"Are you also Liu Jingzhong's defense lawyer?"

The officer on duty picked up his badge and looked at it, then gave Zhu Cheng'an a strange look. "Just how many defense lawyers did Liu Jingzhong hire?"

"What's the meaning?"

Zhu Cheng'an countered, "Are there any other lawyers besides me?"

"One just left!"

The officer pointed towards the doorway. "That man just now, who also said he was Liu Jingzhong's defense lawyer, just finished meeting with Liu Jingzhong."

"What?"

Zhu Cheng'an's expression changed drastically. "What did they all say?"

How would I know?

The officer shrugged. "We are not allowed to eavesdrop on conversations between defense lawyers and defendants."

"I want to see the defendant now."

Zhu Cheng'an urged, "Please let me see him."

"Well... okay!"

Although the police officer was impatient, he had no choice but to take Zhu Cheng'an to see Liu Jingzhong because of his duty.

A moment later, in the detention cell.

"Zhu Cheng'an?"

Seeing the young man enter, Liu Jingzhong asked in surprise, "He Juncai left, why are you here again?"

He didn't recognize the defense lawyer named He Jun, as he had only recently joined the Liu family's legal team.

But he had met this Zhu Cheng'an before.

"You've been tricked!"

Zhu Cheng'an's face darkened. "That person just now wasn't one of ours at all."

"What?"

Liu Jingzhong's expression changed. "Didn't he say that he was one of your team members, someone who had just joined the company not long ago?"

"There is no such person on our team!"

Zhu Chengan gritted his teeth and said, "He's definitely using the guise of a defense lawyer to trick you out of all sorts of information."

He stared intently at Liu Jingzhong and asked urgently, "Tell me, what did you just say to him?"

Liu Jingzhong opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

He just wanted to kill himself right now.

Because he said everything that should have been said and everything that shouldn't have been said.

If the other party uses these as evidence to accuse him, he will be truly unable to defend himself.

"If you don't want to sit here and wait to die, you'd better tell me the truth!"

Zhu Cheng'an was extremely anxious. "You'll be going to court for trial in a couple of days. If you cooperate honestly now, there might still be a chance to salvage the situation."

Liu Jingzhong's lips twitched violently, and his face turned so ashen that it looked like it was about to drip green juice.
