"I just checked, and I know your fees are very high, but don't you also have public service?"

"My father was seriously injured by someone breaking into our home. I personally feel that it meets the basic conditions for your public service. I wonder if you are willing to help us?"

"Public service?"

Luo Bin hesitated for a moment,

but turned his head to look at Li Na.

Sure enough, every step this person took was exactly as the boss had said.

However,

since it was public service, Luo Bin naturally couldn't agree too quickly, or it would blow his cover.

Therefore,

Luo Bin waited for a while,

then said into the phone: "I just checked, and my public service time does indeed have a dozen or so hours left, but I’m not necessarily going to take your case. Let’s understand the specific situation first."

"Alright, alright, then how about this: I’ll drive over to pick you up now, let you see my father’s real situation, and then we can talk."

"No need, just tell me the address, and I’ll drive over myself."

"Alright, alright, thank you, Lawyer Luo."

The middle-aged man gave the address,

and Li Na wrote it directly in her notebook.

After the middle-aged man hung up the phone,

Luo Bin looked at Li Na,

and shook his head with a helpless smile: "It really was all calculated by our boss. Li Na, send a message to the boss."

"Mm."

Li Na acknowledged and opened WeChat...

.......

Receiving Li Na’s WeChat,

Qin Feng didn't rush to the hospital immediately,

but instead found a private kitchen with a good reputation near the police station and ordered two dishes for himself.

After a while,

the waiter brought the food up,

and Qin Feng ordered a bowl of rice, then began to eat unhurriedly.

Meanwhile,

in order to meet with the client as soon as possible,

Li Na hurriedly bought two hamburgers downstairs,

and then sat in Luo Bin’s car.

After finishing the hamburgers,

the two of them arrived at the hospital.

Arriving in front of the ward given by the client,

before Luo Bin could say anything,

Li Tianhua’s eldest son immediately stood up to welcome them: "Lawyer Luo, you’re finally here!"

"Lawyer Luo?"

Hearing his older brother’s words,

Li Tianhua’s second son thought about it carefully and then understood.

Sure enough,

the "Lawyer Luo" who came earlier was a fake.

When they first met,

the second son had felt something was wrong—how could the famous Lawyer Luo Bin be so young?

However,

his brother had chatted with him for a long time, and he didn't know if he had revealed any key information.

At this moment,

the second son became cautious,

immediately using his phone to look up Lawyer Luo Bin online,

and then began to compare him with the photo.

When he confirmed that the person in front of him was indeed Lawyer Luo Bin and that the beautiful woman beside him was also a staff member of Panorama Law Firm,

the second son finally felt relieved.

He then walked to his brother’s side and whispered: "Brother, you didn't say too much to that person earlier, did you?"

"..."

The older brother hesitated, shook his head, and then instructed: "Don't talk nonsense for now. Since the real Lawyer Luo is here, Dad’s matter should basically be fine."

"Alright."

The second son nodded and added in a low voice: "Brother, try to ask for as much as possible. We’re both quite short on money right now. If we ask for more money, we can hire a better caregiver for Dad."

"Got it."

[Qianxun] 5547.07555

The eldest son nodded,

and then introduced his mother and brother to Luo Bin with a bitter smile.

The old lady heard that another Lawyer Luo had come,

turned her head to look at Luo Bin in surprise, and then complained: "What’s going on? Why are there two Lawyer Luos?"

"Mom, this matter is a bit complicated; I’ll tell you later."

The eldest son comforted the old lady,

then pointed at Li Tianhua, who was still keeping his eyes closed, and said helplessly: "Lawyer Luo, look, Dad just came out of the operating room, his mind isn't clear, and we can't get any answers even if we ask."

"However, I installed a security monitor at my parents' house, and I’ve already copied the surveillance video. I can be certain that that crazy woman forcibly broke down my door and broke into the house to beat my father!"

"Is there a video?"

Luo Bin frowned slightly upon hearing this, glanced at Li Na, and then asked: "May I see the video?"

"Yes."

The eldest son rummaged through his bag, hiding Li Tianhua’s phone deeper,

before taking out his own phone,

adjusting the video himself, and pressing play before giving it to Luo Bin.

Luo Bin took the phone, and Li Na also stepped forward to watch carefully.

In the video,

Qu Xiaoxiao’s face was clearly visible,

and at this moment, Qu Xiaoxiao was kicking the door in a rage, cursing: "Old bastard, open the door! Open it! I’m going to chop you up with my own hands today!"

After smashing for a long time,

seeing no one answered,

Qu Xiaoxiao went directly to the fire equipment nearby,

kicked the protective glass of the fire equipment,

took out the fire axe inside,

and then raised the axe, hacking at the door lock again and again.

From beginning to end,

this security video was very clear.

It could be said that,

if this video were provided to the court as evidence,

then the friend the boss mentioned, Qu Xiaoxiao, who was holding the axe and hacking at the door, would not be able to escape a charge of illegal trespassing.

If,

255595300

they also held video evidence of Qu Xiaoxiao beating Li Tianhua after entering the house and rushing into the kitchen to threaten him with a knife,

then Qu Xiaoxiao’s actions would be very serious.

With such ironclad evidence,

it would actually be very difficult for the boss to help Qu Xiaoxiao overturn the case.

After watching the video,

Luo Bin hesitated: "Judging from the current video, the woman in the footage does indeed have the suspicion of illegal trespassing."

"However, I don't know if there is any other more direct video evidence that can prove she actually beat and intimidated your family members."

"If there is, then the nature of her actions will be redefined."

"There is."

The eldest son nodded,

just about to look for the next video,

Qianxun 255595300

but thinking of being scammed by Qin Feng this morning,

the eldest son immediately became cautious,

and then deliberately said: "Sorry, Lawyer Luo, I haven't retrieved that video surveillance yet, but the video does exist."

"So, based on this situation, can my father’s case be filed directly? Can we simultaneously demand compensation from the other party?"

Glancing at the eldest son,

Luo Bin knew that the eldest son was deliberately hiding things from him.

After considering it,

Luo Bin nodded and said: "Mm, generally it is possible, after all, the nature of this matter is different."

"I personally think that in addition to your family’s medical expenses and nursing costs, you can also additionally demand a sum for mental compensation."

After Luo Bin finished speaking, before the eldest son could express his stance,

the second son immediately leaned in and said: "Really? That’s great!"

The eldest son turned his head and glared at his brother,

then said: "If it’s really possible, then we must thank Lawyer Luo. Lawyer Luo, will you take my father’s case?"

"This..."

Luo Bin hesitated upon hearing this.

In fact,

the phone call Qin Feng made to Luo Bin only said to come and play a part in a show,

and did not explicitly state that Luo Bin should take this case.

Therefore, Luo Bin didn't know Qin Feng’s exact intention.

If he were to rashly agree and take this case now,

it would mean that Luo Bin would be representing this family and going to court against the boss’s friend.

And at that time,

Luo Bin’s identity would be Li Tianhua’s lawyer.

Whether from the perspective of legal procedure or professional ethics,

it would be impossible for Luo Bin to cooperate with Qin Feng in any backroom dealings.

Therefore,

Luo Bin hesitated.

Seeing Luo Bin hesitate,

Li Tianhua’s eldest son couldn't help but continue: "Lawyer Luo, you’ve seen it, that crazy woman broke into my house for no reason, not only beat my father but also went to get a knife..."

"My father is just an old man in his sixties; he hasn't done anything, and he’s been bullied like this..."

"Lawyer Luo, you are a well-known good lawyer in our Imperial Capital, many people praise you for being kind and just. Lawyer Luo, please help us, help our family uphold justice!"

Glancing at the eldest son,

before Luo Bin could speak,

Qin Feng’s voice rang out from behind Luo Bin: "There’s no need to trouble the great Lawyer Luo with upholding justice; just come to me!"

"You f*cking dare to come back?!"

Seeing Qin Feng, the eldest son was directly enraged, pulled his brother, and prepared to rush toward Qin Feng.

Li Na, however, happened to step forward at this moment,

seemingly to make way, but in reality, she blocked the path of the eldest and second sons.

Then,

Li Na pointed at Luo Bin and said with a smile: "Don't be stupid, beating someone in front of Lawyer Luo will have very serious consequences!"
