Chapter 275 A Stranger Calls
Chapter 275 A Stranger Calls
At the Ji'an Town Police Station, Liu Chunsheng was handling a case when a colleague pushed open the door and asked him to answer a phone call.
It must have been his uncle-in-law who called to let him know he was safe in Jidu. Liu Chunsheng handed the suspect over to his colleague and left happily.
He picked up the microphone and cheerfully said, "Hello, this is the Ji'an Town Police Station!"
A woman's urgent voice rang out, "Comrade, could you please pass on a message for me, and ask Luo Baiwan from Qing'an Village to answer the phone?"
Qing'an Village? There's someone named Luo Baiwan there? How come he doesn't know him! Liu Chunsheng was completely confused.
"Sorry, no, no..." Suddenly he remembered something, and his eyes lit up.
“I know, I know who you’re looking for. He’s not called Luo Baiwan anymore, he’s called Luo Baiwan!”
After Luo Jing got into trouble with his older cousin by answering the phone last time, he went to his older cousin's house. His uncle said that someone had sent him a letter with only three words: Luo Baiwan!
Then he received the letter and discovered it was sent from abroad.
My uncle explained, “Actually, my original name was Luo Baiwan. The villagers kept calling me that until it became Luo Baiwan. Over time, I almost forgot what my original name was. This letter came from abroad, and I don’t know who it is. I wanted to discuss it with Daya, but I couldn’t get in touch with her!”
After hearing his uncle's words, he suddenly understood. So that's how it is.
"What kind of weird name is this!" the woman on the other end muttered, her dissatisfaction palpable even through the microphone.
Liu Chunsheng was pulled out of his reverie by her words. He scratched his head and smiled, "He's not in the village right now. Call me again next time!"
The woman, afraid she would hang up, hurriedly said, "Where did he go? I need to know right now!"
"I don't know!" Liu Chunsheng hung up the phone immediately. He wasn't stupid; how could he sell his uncle if he didn't know who the other party was?
The atmosphere in the conference room of the division headquarters of the Jidu Military Region instantly became strange.
The three people whose names were called immediately got up and went about their business.
Accompanied by two of Jin Danian's bodyguards, Liu Hongyi approached Luo Ning.
Luo Ning handed over Jing Guoqiang's message with both hands and expressed his deepest gratitude to Liu Hongyi.
"It was nothing, don't mention it. It was our negligence that caused you such great harm. Don't worry, we will definitely give you an explanation." Liu Hongyi took the information record and left quickly.
Luo Ning leaned back, placing his feet directly on the table in front of him and swinging them wildly. "Please forgive me, leaders, but I am currently a victim of a conspiracy. I need to make myself comfortable to stay conscious!"
Her gaze swept over some angry-looking people, and she seemed pleased, as if to say, "Come and fight me if you dare!"
The three groups of people—angry, intolerant, and indifferent—turned a blind eye to Luo Ning's unrestrained behavior.
Even a fool could understand the attitude of Jin Danian, the highest-ranking officer of the Jidu Military Region, so everyone remained still.
The investigation team consisted of fifteen people. Apart from two regimental commanders from Liu Hongyi's division, the rest were all from the Jidu Military Region and the capital. However, none of them were of higher rank than Jin Danian, who was the highest-ranking officer here. His word was law.
Moreover, with both the front and back doors locked, any person with ulterior motives who wants to send a message risks being killed on the spot. The cost is too high for them to bear, so remaining inactive is the best course of action.
So everyone sat in their seats, staring at each other.
The limitations of the times in communication are actually a good thing for Luoning now.
As long as they can't leave here, they can't cause any trouble, so she can rest assured.
Hearing the breathing around him, Luo Ning felt completely unwell.
She was standing up, while Tian Susu was asleep. What the hell was going on?
Luo Ning instantly switched to a shouting match mode, rambling on and on in Tian Susu's ear with a very strong tone and harsh words.
Not only did they swear, but they also used punctuation marks.
Even the most drowsy person would be startled awake, let alone a well-trained spy chief like Tian Susu.
She wanted to stay awake a little longer, but Luo Ning's insults were just too nasty, filled with profanities.
In the world of insults, if Luo Ning claims to be second, no one dares to claim to be first.
She can not only use rural slang in a down-to-earth way, but also use classical allusions in a sophisticated way, switching between them at will and connecting them freely.
She can use slang from any region with ease.
Five thousand years of Chinese history reside within her heart.
The idle members of the investigation team, who were waiting in place, were deeply attracted by her rant and listened with great interest.
They're just killing time anyway, and maybe they can even learn something new by accident. They enjoy these kinds of arguments.
They not only listened, but also discussed it with each other.
Because there are some classics they don't understand, or have never even heard of, discussion is essential for progress.
Moreover, they were able to control the pace of the discussion because Luo Ning spoke so fast that he showed no intention of stopping to wait for them.
This place kept them very busy, constantly discussing and receiving information.
When Liu Hongyi returned after making the phone call, he saw this bizarre scene and felt a little dizzy.
Especially when he saw Tian Susu trying to get on the edge of speaking, he couldn't find an opportunity, and Commander Jin was helpless.
Luo Ning performed consistently, spoke at a very fast pace, and controlled the rhythm of the entire event.
Luo Ning once mentioned in his office that she had never lost a fight, nor had she ever lost an argument.
He only believed the former, but today he believes the latter too.
After reporting the results of his phone call to Jin Danian, Liu Hongyi returned to his seat and forcefully watched Luo Ning's tirade.
Although he didn't know how all this happened, the process was even more exciting than the beginning, and he and the other members of the investigation team directly entered "spectator mode".
Jidu People's Hospital, Jidu Central Hospital, and Jidu Maternal and Child Health Hospital each sent chief physicians to the military region.
At almost the same time, Lu Ren from Jidu Harmony Hospital put down his work and rushed to the military region.
Meanwhile, in the capital city, at the Dadi Law Firm, the phone call on the other end had been hanging up for a long time, but Jing Guoqiang was still in a daze.
The division commander of the Jidu Military Region actually asked such a nobody as him to defend someone? My goodness, could he have been scammed?
Jing Guoqiang hung up the phone and paced back and forth in his office.
His law firm was just established this year; people like him who start out in this field are all...
That's insane!
Hmm...that's what everyone outside says about him!
Why would someone give up a perfectly good job at the court and open their own law firm? They don't even have any business. They must be out of their mind!
How can sparrows know the ambitions of swans? He didn't argue with them.
The individualization and commercialization of lawyers are the future trends; he is simply ahead of his time.
If the person who just called was a scammer, then he must be out of his mind to try and fool someone like me!
What did he just say his name was? Liu, Liu Hongyi! He's a division commander.
They've already given their names, so this shouldn't be a lie!
Can he resist the military's demands?
He couldn't. He was already on the verge of collapse from the spittle of his family and relatives; he couldn't afford to be attacked by the military as well…
I'm not going to say anything more, just get back to work.
Even if this is fake, it doesn't matter. Just treat it as a sightseeing trip.
The capital city is not far from Hebei Province, only a few hours' drive away.
If he's lucky, he can go and come back on the same day.
Even if he couldn't come back, it didn't matter. Business at the firm was even worse than in the dead of winter. That's how Jing Guoqiang convinced himself to go to Jidu.
Little did he know that this trip to the capital would mark a turning point in his life and the peak of his career.
This proves everyone wrong and usheres in a golden age for individual lawyers.
