Chapter 143 Hongmen Banquet

"Mrs. Jia announced her candidacy for the Fourth District Councilor? Cao Ying, the original Fourth District Councilmember, will run for the Third District?"

Lu Ming laughed, "It's interesting."

Murong Xue nodded beside her, but felt a little nervous because Mrs. Jia, standing behind her, was the Bakluo family. Old Bakluo was the chief member of the Beiguan Seven-member Committee.

Originally, it was obvious that Mrs. Jia was planning to run for the Third District Councillor, but in the end, she was knocked back by her boss.

After all, Yang Guiren couldn't go to the door to collect the mooncakes and vouchers originally distributed, which would be a mess.

Now, Mrs. Jia goes to the fourth district, and Congressman Cao comes to the third district.

The Bucklow family will definitely help Congressman Cao run for the third district, because it means that Congressman Cao gave up the fourth district to the Bucklow family.

Councilor Cao Ying is a writer and current affairs commentator with a good reputation. He often speaks for ordinary people in newspapers and periodicals.

If it were a political debate, the boss might not necessarily be his opponent. After all, this is what Congressman Cao does.

Unfortunately, during the interview with the TV station, the question about being on TV had already been asked. The program had already been broadcast, and the boss expressed his willingness to debate each other's community policies, political views, etc. on TV with any candidate.

So, by supporting Cao Yinglai's candidacy in the third district, is the Bucklo family preparing to beat their boss to a complete defeat in the TV debate?

"Let's go at our own pace. I've been a little busy these past two days. Thank you for your hard work!" Lu Ming waved his hand.

Murong Xue was helpless. Running for parliament was not the first priority in her boss's schedule. How could she explain this?

But Zi Zi and the campaign officials bowed together and sent the boss off.



On the desk, in front of Lu Ming, were two photos.

They are all half-length photos, wearing white servants' shirts commonly seen in wealthy families. One is a male servant and the other a maid. They both look to be in their thirties.

The man's photo says "Zhao Si", and the maid's photo says "Gao Si".

The huge shadow on the desk is the body of Fu Mosi reflected in the light.

"Master, I have sorted it out in the past few days and checked the details of all the servants of the Gao family. I feel that these two are the most suspicious."

"I think Sister-in-law Gao is the most suspicious. She is Gao Yulong's wet nurse. Gao Yulong was raised by her. She once had a son who was the same age as Gao Yulong, but most of her milk was given to Gao Yulong.

, Therefore, his son has been very weak since he was a child, and he died suddenly four years ago, when he was five years old. At that time, Gao Yulong was in Gao Yulong's hometown, because Gao Depei always wanted his son to endure hardships and stand hard work, so he

, when he was young, he often called Gao Sao and took him to the countryside, which is Gao Sao’s hometown.”

Lu Ming nodded and listened.

Fumosi pointed at Zhao Si again, "I was originally a bricklayer, repairing the house for the Gao family, but my son is studying at Marfa University. Master, you should know that Marfa tuition is very high because of the low scores.

The school’s brand is considered second-rate and top-notch in Donghai, and Zhao Si’s son has an apartment outside the university and lives a very good life, so I feel a bit strange.”

"It stands to reason that even if Gao Yulong did those things, at least his father should not have known about it before. Otherwise, there would always be some abnormal changes in his education, but there are none of these. So, if his father didn't know about it,

If Zhao Si is really helping him, Gao Yulong is just nine years old, how can he have money to repay, or in other words, reward Zhao Si?"

"Master, I'm going to go to Xihuang for a walk. Sister-in-law Gao's hometown is in Xihuang."

Xihuang is one of the satellite towns in the East China Sea.

Lu Ming nodded: "That's right." After a few days to find out these many things, I'm afraid Fumosi's special identity will also have a bonus.

"Where Zhao Si is, I arranged for someone to get close to Zhao Si's son to see if I can get anything out of him."

Lu Ming nodded.

Fumosi chuckled at this time, "It's just that we need to pay more for the informant. Master, you have to solve it. The Liuying I chose is quite beautiful, and the asking price is not low, but I am optimistic about her, she is good at acting, and

She's good at clichés, and if it's really useful, I think she can definitely play the role of the fourth Zhao boy, and he'll be willing to be a witness."

Lu Ming waved his hand, "You can check the information, but if it involves evidence that may go to court, then whether the other party is willing to testify in court in the future, our informants are not involved in this, let alone interfere or instigate, those of you at the Federal Bureau of Statistics

Some of the methods are not applicable here and need to be changed. As for the funding, I will talk to Minister Liu and give your investigation room an extra quota."

"Okay! I understand!" Fumo thought for a moment and then said, "Stuart's murder case seems simple. Maybe he was framed, right? But it's quite difficult to clear his suspicion."

Lu Ming nodded. Indeed, it seems very suspicious, but in fact, unless the real murderer is found, based on the current evidence, we can only say that Stuart killed the person. If there are no new clues for a long time, we can only prosecute him.

Now, if you become a prosecutor yourself, you will do the same thing.

Besides, to be honest, I wanted to believe him. The former nobleman, Panmila's father, should not be a murderer.

But who can say accurately about things in this world?

"The clues you are looking for may be able to help him, if he is really innocent." Lu Ming smiled: "Okay, go and do your work. Thank you for your hard work."

With Fumosi, I really feel that I am much more relaxed. In the past, I probably had to do it myself to find out clearly.

I stood up and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window. It was getting dark and the street lights were already on.

Over there at the gate, trucks were coming in and out, bringing down many tables, chairs and benches, and many people were moving into the building.

We are already merging with Liu Hanxuan Firm. In two days, the lawyers from Liu Hanxuan Firm will officially come here to work.

The day after tomorrow, I will also cut the ribbon with Liu Hanhuan to announce the establishment of the new office.

Of course, there are also two senior partners who were originally Liu Hanhuan, but they couldn't agree on their treatment and the equity they were given was too small. They were not satisfied and decided to terminate the contract.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There was a gentle knock on the office door.

Lu Ming responded, the door was pushed open a crack, and it was Tie Xiaojia who poked his head out.

His second apprentice, nicknamed Iron Pao, was introduced by Fourth Brother Wen.

"Xiaojia, come in!" Lu Ming smiled.

These three apprentices are in a state of free rein, especially recently. I haven't seen them for a long time, even if they are in the West End of the Liberty Building.

"Master, do you have time today? We would like to treat you to dinner." Tie Xiaojia said, sticking out his tongue. He probably felt that his request was too much. Master, you are too busy.

"Forget it about eating!" Lu Ming waved his hand, "It's just like this. Every week from now on, write me down your experience in handling cases, and I will give you comments. Every month, I will think of a case, and the three of you will do it.

In the mock court, I will go to the scene to be the referee."

"Okay!" Tie Xiaojia immediately said with surprise on his face, "Long live the master!" He seemed really happy.

Lu Ming thought for a while, "Oh, I have a case now. If any of the three of you don't have a case at hand, you can come over and help me."

"Xiao'e and I don't have any cases!" Tie Xiaojia said almost without thinking.

Lu Ming shook his head: "Just bully Tsinghua University and hand over all the cases at hand to him, right?"

Tie Xiaojia stuck out his tongue.

"All three of you, come here. I will tell Da'an that the case at hand should be handled by others."

"Okay, I'll tell Xiao'e right now!" Before closing the door, Tie Xiaojia whispered: "Long live the master! The master is the best!" Then he closed the door and went away like the wind.

Lu Ming smiled and looked at the files on the table. This case should be a good training for them.

Of course, they are just participating, giving opinions based on existing evidence, and have no power to investigate.

The phone rang. It was the operator at the switchboard service desk. His voice was sweet, "Boss, this is Congressman Gao Debei's number. Are you there?"

The secretary's room outside Lu Ming's office was empty, and there had been no suitable candidate. Murong Xue struggled for a while at first, but after the campaign was on track, she naturally focused all her energy on the campaign office.

The secretary position has always been vacant.

Therefore, if anyone dials the extension number of Lu Ming's office, the switchboard service office will check it.

In addition, there is a direct line phone in the office. If you know the direct number, Lu Ming will naturally answer the call.

After thinking for a while, Lu Ming hummed, "Come in."

Soon, Gao Debei's loud voice came from the microphone, "Commissioner Lu, do you have time tonight? Let's get together?"

Lu Ming smiled: "Sorry, Speaker Gao, I have an appointment tonight!"

In fact, it was getting late outside, so there was no sincerity in making the appointment at this time. Besides, I did have an appointment in the evening, and I wanted to go home for dinner to celebrate Bisi's eighth birthday.

"No, I'm here. Mr. Bucklo is here. Are you really not coming?" Gao Debei said drunkenly.

Listen, it's a nightclub. It's quite noisy, and there are women's coquettish voices. They must have been drinking all afternoon.

I could faintly hear a voice saying, "Tell him, if he doesn't come, he won't come here again!"

The Zhongzhou dialect is a little stiff, and it sounds like someone who is not a native of Zhongzhou.

Gao Debei smiled: "Commissioner Lu, Mr. Bucklow warmly invites you!"

Lu Ming pondered for a moment, "Okay, I'll stop by and say hello to Mr. Bacro, but I do have an appointment. Let's just sit here for a few minutes." Listening to Bacro's voice, he sounded very young, not like someone in his fifties or sixties.

.

"Haha, okay, I'll wait for you!" The moment Gao Debei hung up the phone, he heard someone say: "How dare he be disobedient, haha!" But it wasn't Bucklo, it was someone else's voice.

Lu Ming smiled, loosened his fingers holding the microphone, and the microphone fell on the fork, trembling slightly.

However, it is normal for the person on the other side of the phone line to feel good.

For an amateur who has not yet run for the Senate, it is indeed a huge honor to be able to join the bureau where Chief Councilor Bucklow is present.

Gao Debei, it may not even be a malicious intention to show off one's power, but more of a solicitation to let you attend the gatherings of our circle, indicating that if you agree to us some conditions, we may accept you, and it is a great compliment.

It raises your status.

Should I just give up running for District 3 and give myself a remote district like Forty-Nine?

Lu Ming thought for a while, then stood up and walked out.
