Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Pioneers of the Legal Profession

"Hustler," white woman Sarah laughed.

Allen Zhang paused, not sure what to say.

Translated it means: prostitute; someone who tricks and cheats for money.

Allen Zhang immediately rubbed his face, looking at the red lipstick in his palm, doubting life a bit.

Fxxk!!

That love at first sight (or lust at first sight) on the West Coast, hadn't even started before it was already over.

Appearances can be deceiving.

Heartache.

Incomprehensible.

But choosing to respect.

Maybe this is just the United States.

Dave put down his bottle at this moment and couldn't help but laugh, "Don't worry, buddy, she takes good care of herself, no diseases at all."

"So you've experienced it?" Allen Zhang asked with a hint of teasing.

"How could I? Jennifer only likes handsome and wealthy guys, I'm too broke to afford her, only Dominic has had the experience! But that was in his dreams."

Dave laughed, "Last time Dominic drank too much, he ended up sleeping in her tent, and according to Jennifer, it was not a wonderful night. Because Dominic is quick on the draw! He couldn't keep his head up under the influence of alcohol."

"If you want something to happen with Jennifer, remember to take precautions. Otherwise, you'll have to support her for the rest of your life! Geez, you wouldn't want to see a woman with a big belly wandering and struggling outside, just thinking about it is a nightmare!"

Dave, the French gentleman, led by example in word and deed, after all, they have lots of experience with this in their country.

"Alright. I suppose it's quite unlikely that something would happen between her and me."

Allen Zhang shook his head.

"Don't speak too soon, buddy."

Dave smiled slightly, "Unless you're not capable, I don't believe as a man you wouldn't cheat. Did God give you 9 inches just to practice abstinence? You might as well cut it off and give it to Jason."

Jason got angry, "Fxxk you! Dave!"

"Fxxk you too! Jason!"

Dave responded with a middle finger, quite arrogantly.

The French cannon fears nothing, the French cannon scoffs at all.

I'm bigger than you.

"You have a point, buddy, let's have a drink," Allen Zhang raised his bottle, acknowledging his words.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.

"Stop blabbering, boys, drink!! Let's get hyped up!!" Simone raised her bottle high.

Fitz picked up his phone, turned up the volume, and played some West Coast-style rap music.

Jason, feeling the beat, got up and started to dance, shaking his body, and joining Simone for a wild dance, sticking close together.

Any more over the top and it could have been a charged performance in a club.

"Alright, I guess I'm one of the boys tonight too." Blitz also happily raised his bottle to join in.

Sarah smiled at him, "In a way, you definitely count as a 'little boy'."

Blitz's face turned red.

As time slowly passed, the fire under the stars blazed fiercely, and more and more empty bottles accumulated on the ground, along with a fair share of cigarette butts.

The party had moved into its later stages, with pretty much only a couple of people left.

Jason and Fitz danced until they were tired, then they found a spot to sit close together, whispering who knows what, and then they started making out, and before long, they rolled off somewhere.

Blitz and Sarah left together to rest.

It wasn't long before Blitz came back alone, clearly having done nothing; he had just escorted her and they went their separate ways.

"Alright, I'm going to sleep too."

Dave, feeling bored, drained his bottle in one go, gave a wave, and stood up, "Tomorrow I have to do some charity work in a nearby community, which will have a big impact on my credit points. Who knows, maybe I can find a full-time job at a law firm in the future."

"Good luck then, buddy."

Allen Zhang had also heard his story during the earlier conversation.

Honestly, the opposing lawyer's track record is a bit shocking, a rare sight in all the legal talents I know of in the profession! Only Lawyer Allen Zhang could possibly compare!!

Truly incompetent yet loves to get involved.

Rising to the peak as soon as he started.

After graduating, lawyer Dave went to work as a public interest lawyer in a county courthouse in California, just in time to defend a Black man who had served three years of prison time for a sentence reduction.

The client behaved well in prison, and there was a high probability of getting his six-year fixed-term sentence commuted to probation, requiring only going through the process and paying part of the bail, and he could be out of prison the same day. Not difficult at all.

Even the jury judges weren't all present that day. There was only an old white judge with 800-degree presbyopia glasses who had been in the field for forty years.

The Black man and his family even started prematurely celebrating with champagne.

Dave, this kid, was quite earnest in his work attitude. He walked around the streets to learn about his client's life and accidentally dug up a bunch of dirt on him.

Old and trivial matters, minor offenses like brawling and driving under the influence, to major ones like trafficking leaves and extortion, he was even suspected of being involved in a case of a patrolling officer's mysterious death years ago!

Dave went on to depict his client's life story in front of the judge, which stunned the sleepy old white judge.

What kind of grudge is this? Are you sure you're defending for a sentence reduction, not acting as the plaintiff's lawyer?

The Black man's face turned from black to purple as he listened.

After cooperative investigation with the county police department, the allegations indeed turned out to be true, and the court charged the Black man with murder on the spot, imposing additional criminal responsibilities and straight-up sentenced him to 126 years of fixed-term imprisonment!

Even his family was dragged in for crimes of harboring and aiding murder.

The Black man was dumbfounded at that point. His family looked at Dave as if they wanted to kill him on the spot!

He became famous in one battle.

If it wasn't for Dave running away quickly, moving overnight to Texas, he might have been done for the next day.

Rather than being a lawyer, he was probably more suited for criminal investigation.

Embracing humanitarianism, many states here have abolished the death penalty, and sentences continue to stack based on the severity of the crimes committed, with no upper limit.

Charles Scott Robinson, the infamous rapist from Oklahoma, who raped six children in a row, was sentenced to 30,000 years of fixed-term imprisonment by the court! It's like even after dying, his ashes would still be serving time.

After his first fiasco, Dave learned his lesson. With his fame, he successfully applied to work at a law firm in Texas and did a paid defense for his second case.

A white police officer inflicted violence on a Black grandma during law enforcement, sparking endless debates on racial issues. He defended the clash between the two as innocent, siding with the white officer.

The Black grandma complained about the officer's brutality; the white officer vehemently denied it, a Police Chief with twelve years of experience.

The result was a predictably steady performance that sent that white officer straight to prison.

All the way through.

Because during the investigation, Dave restored the malfunctioning storage information from the white officer's law enforcement recorder, and played a video in the court. The footage not only captured the violent law enforcement but also an affair with his superior's wife during work hours.

The story was fascinating, making his boss and colleagues feel like they had green hats on their heads.

Initially part of the defense, they instantly turned their backs on him and accused the white officer of violent law enforcement, illegal profiting, corruption, and bribery, spilling all of his dirty secrets.

The white officer, speechless and coerced by the glares of his superiors and colleagues, promptly admitted his actions, thus getting sentenced to thirty-six years of fixed-term imprisonment, likely not getting out in this lifetime.

It was said that later in prison, he choked to death while drinking water.

He really was too careless.

Since his debut, Dave never completed a single commission smoothly, but it's not that he didn't complete them, it's that he completed them too well! All his clients ended up in jail.

The guilty cannot escape!!

The opposing lawyers were all laughing numbly. Without doing anything, they just won lying down.

Many rival forces who heard his stories started throwing money at him, wanting to hire him as an undercover to defend their opponents. His value skyrocketed for a while.

Feeling insulted, Dave chose to quit in a rage!

He locked himself at home for over two months, questioning his life.

But he soon regretted it.

Because of losing his job and lacking an income source, he would soon be credit bankrupt for being unable to pay his mortgage, swept out of the house, homeless on the streets.

To add insult to injury, his girlfriend took the money and ran away at this time.

Dave, unable to bear it, went to the court to sue his girlfriend for theft and fraud!

He acted as his own notary lawyer and then... got himself prosecuted...

This was the most ridiculous of all.
