This guy really is despicable! How could he do something like that? A total scumbag!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man nodded with an exaggerated, thoughtful expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman wiped her tears. “Exactly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man said, “In my opinion, people like that deserve to die!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, you’re going to call the police now, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman hesitated a few times. “Yes, I definitely have to call the police. After all, someone died.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man sighed. “Ah, I’m suddenly a bit worried about you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman asked, “Worried about me about what?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man said, “Even though your testimony, including the marks on your neck, can prove that he struck first…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman’s heart pounded. “Then… do you count as a third party?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man shook his head. “No, I don’t. I just passed by. When I passed by, he was already dead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman said, “Then the hallway should have surveillance cameras that caught something, right?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man shook his head. “The surveillance system in this building was hit by a virus. It hasn’t been fixed yet!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So that’s why I’m so worried about you!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman had already been worried about whether she’d be convicted of excessive self-defense and spend a few years in prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time she got out, everything would have changed, people and circumstances alike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her lips started to stutter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, recalling something the young man had just said, she seized on a certain point and abruptly lifted her head. “You said, many cases you’ve handled. Are you a cop?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man shook his head. “I’m a lawyer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman clung to it like a lifeline. “Then, based on your experience, what’s the best possible outcome for my situation?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man adopted a contemplative expression. “It’s tough. Without a third party or surveillance footage to prove whether this guy was choking you continuously and you killed him, or if he choked you a few times, stopped, tried to run away, and was killed by you while fleeing…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The former is justifiable self-defense. The latter is excessive defense.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I once handled a case very similar to yours. Also a young woman. Same situation—the guy harassing her was accidentally killed by her. In the end, she had to pay the victim’s family a huge sum of money and served nine years in prison!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman was terrified. This was exactly what she feared most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nine years. If she really spent nine years inside, would Sun Jiankang wait nine years for her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. She didn’t want to go to prison!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She really, really didn’t!!!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But… but there was no way!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman collapsed weakly onto the ground, her whole body drained of strength, no interest in anything. Even if her boyfriend showed up here, she couldn’t muster any joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah… seeing you like this, I feel awful too!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your name is Lei Xiaoman, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man asked with a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman: “Mm-hmm…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She answered weakly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man said, “I have an idea that can help you avoid disaster. I just don’t know if you’re willing to use it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman struggled to lift her chin. “What idea? Is it paying money to avoid punishment?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman thought of her dad. If she really needed money, her dad was her lifeline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man was speechless. “What are you thinking?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My idea isn’t about paying money to avoid punishment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s this—don’t call the police. We’ll quietly dispose of the body ourselves!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, this idea had crossed Lei Xiaoman’s mind deep down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she had always buried it in the deepest part of her heart, never daring to act on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dispose… of the body ourselves? This… won’t other people find out, will it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman’s face was full of terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she was discovered, she’d never be able to explain it clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man walked into the room and closed the security door. “If you trust me, I’ll handle it. I guarantee that body will be cleaned up without a trace!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman looked at him with a glimmer of hope. “Really?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man said, “Absolutely.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman asked, “But… why are you helping me like this? Helping me do something illegal?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman didn’t know this young man at all. He was just a random passerby. Why would he help her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it about money? Name your price. I’ll try to scrape it together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was still a bit strained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man sighed. “It’s not about money. Helping you dispose of the body, covering up a killing… you probably won’t believe this, but…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the justice I’ve always upheld as a lawyer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think it’s incredibly unfair for a young woman with a bright future to go to prison because of a scumbag like him!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you ever heard of terms like the Underground Judge?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not only am I not repulsed by people like that, but I actually admire them!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s why I’m helping you!!!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman cried, tears streaming down her face. She was deeply moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moved that this person, whom she had met for the first time, would help her so much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially because he trusted her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, stop crying. Don’t worry about this anymore.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You did a good thing. So cheer up!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He patted Lei Xiaoman’s shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man opened the security door. “Wait here for me to come back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman nodded and then fell into a long wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long, but in reality, it was only fifteen minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the young man returned, he was carrying a large suitcase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Closing the security door, he loaded the corpse into the suitcase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the middle-aged man wasn’t very tall, only about five foot four, and curled up, he barely fit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m going to dispose of the body now. You take care of the bloodstains in your apartment and the clothes you’re wearing. Don’t let anyone find them!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Xiaoman did as she was told.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, right, I haven’t asked your name yet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh. My name is Zhang Yao. I live here too, but in Room 301, Building 1. Feel free to come find me if you’re free.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Zhang Yao pulled the suitcase and left Lei Xiaoman’s apartment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang. The moment he left, Lei Xiaoman’s security door closed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the sound, an eerie, twisted smile involuntarily curled at the corner of his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he was quite handsome, with sharp features, that smile always gave off a petty, underhanded vibe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yao was the one who had replaced the Old Man in Room 301.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the same person who, after Hong Nan failed to hit on Jiang Ran, took the initiative to hit on Hong Nan, only to fail as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, he had pretended to be a new tenant, knocking on every door on the third floor, handing out gifts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, it was simple why he had appeared in Building 2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to pursue and get Hong Nan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that woman, Hong Nan, was always on guard against Zhang Yao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No way around it. Zhang Yao didn’t succeed and had to leave dejectedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As luck would have it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On his way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He happened upon this incident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since one of the parties involved was a lab rat, and a woman at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An idea struck him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, he staged the entire performance just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, his goal was simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was to get Lei Xiaoman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t touched a woman in a long time, and he didn’t have a taste for prostitutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to use his own cleverness!!!\u003C\u002Fp>",1272,"2026-06-09T04:42:28.845Z",1,"novelbin.me","ca9291304f5be5ee5b693cbd0f0fbbe47520c564ef5b413dad63fe63398cf450","great-it-s-the-pervy-neighbor-we-re-doomed-chapter-144","great-it-s-the-pervy-neighbor-we-re-doomed-chapter-143",670,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgreat-it-s-the-pervy-neighbor-we-re-doomed-cover.jpg"]
