Who Made Him a Lawyer?-Chapter 101 - 97: Arrest Them!

Did you go into the boiler room?

Xu Liang fell into silence, showing no signs of responding, his figure seeming so thin.

Liu Shengjie didn't press further, simply watched him coldly.

Standing beside him were eight people, and on closer inspection, Zhang Mang and others were among them!

The reason Liu Shengjie brought people along was initially to clear out the last batch of goods from the boiler room under the cover of darkness, but now it seems...

There might be another use for them.

The eight people silently dispersed, surrounding Xu Liang, leaving no room for escape.

"Would you believe me if I said I didn't go in?"

Xu Liang suddenly spoke, looking at Liu Shengjie with a gentle smile appearing on his face.

"Actually, I didn't go down, I just wanted to pick the lock for fun."

"Haha, Mr. Xu seems quite interested."

"Driving dozens of kilometers at one in the morning, just to sneak into the orphanage and pick locks."

Liu Shengjie sneered coldly, giving the people around him a look.

The crowd slowly pressed in.

Xu Liang retreated slightly, raising his hands in a defensive stance.

"Dean Liu, I just remembered that the charity organization seems to have said they've approved the funds for you."

"Do you think I should go back now and get the money for you?"

As the words fell.

The people in front showed no sign of wavering.

Money?

Offering money is useless.

Anyone who has seen the boiler room must die!!!

Including Zhang Mang, every one of them clearly understood they were walking on a razor's edge.

The more lucrative their earnings, the deeper the crimes they have committed!

To put it bluntly, everyone had at least more than one life on their hands, even dying ten times wouldn't suffice for their wickedness!

Seeing the distance was almost closed, Liu Shengjie suddenly shouted in anger.

"Take him down!!!"

In an instant.

The surrounding people rushed forward altogether.

Xu Liang's heart moved, and seeing someone charging at him from the side, he reached for his waist.

The next second...

"Bang!"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Accompanied by a shrill scream, Liu Shengjie and others were stunned.

The person who had rushed up had an obviously deformed arm, kneeling painfully on the ground, his features twisted in agony.

His forearm was forcibly shattered!

The leading Zhang Mang looked at the wrench in Xu Liang's hand, unable to help but exclaim in shock.

"Where did the wrench come from!?"

Under the moonlight, the steel-forged wrench in Xu Liang's hand glimmered.

"Hey, won't you really consider letting me go get some donation funds for you?"

Xu Liang probed.

"Why waste words with him!?"

Liu Shengjie, furious, kicked a rotten chair nearby, tore off one of the legs, and threw it to Zhang Mang.

"Beat him to death!"

At the command, the remaining people all surged forward.

Xu Liang's expression changed, narrowly avoiding one person's attack, but felt a warning on his forehead, instinctively looking up, saw an iron rod coming down on him from above.

If it were an ordinary person, there would be no escape, getting a fatal blow on the spot.

Yet, at this moment, numerous evasive tactics flooded Xu Liang's mind, his pupils narrowed, expertly dodging to one side, controlling his body with well-practiced movements.

"Swoosh!"

The rod missed, causing the person to stagger a couple of steps.

[Special Skill: Martial Arts Master!]

'Damn, luckily I got a life-preserving skill...'

Cursing inwardly, Xu Liang was about to use the wrench on the opponent's arm.

But unfortunately...

"Snap!"

A rod hit from the side unsuspectingly, Xu Liang's arm getting struck, another rod targeting his pocket, fortunately deflected by his phone, which was smashed in the process.

"Ugh!"

The immense pain caused Xu Liang to grunt, forcing him to abandon the attack, switching to defense.

A trained person might dominate one-on-one.

But facing eight people...

Eight armed people!

In a mob situation, even special forces would struggle!

No matter how skilled, you can't fend off multiple armed attackers alone.

Within minutes, he was already injured!

"Damn it..."

Xu Liang cursed inside.

Until at some point, his gaze suddenly sharpened, seizing an opportunity, landing a wrench on someone's rib, turning the fight into a two-man standoff on the ground.

Giving him a brief moment to catch his breath.

"Hey, hey, hey, let's talk it out!"

Xu Liang retreated a few steps, confronted the remaining seven physically fit men, facing them with a pained expression and clenched teeth.

"I'm telling you, tonight's a full moon, according to Western culture, when the moon is full, werewolves appear!"

"How about we both retreat, fight again tomorrow?"

Werewolves?

Liu Shengjie's face darkened.

"He has a female partner, now unseen, probably outside the orphanage, might be calling the police now!"

"Don't let him stall for time!"

"If the cops come, none of us will get away!!!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Mang and the others instantly had bloodshot eyes.

"No, there really are werewolves!"

Xu Liang spoke anxiously, inwardly cursing his cunning opponent.

"Werewolf your mother!"

Zhang Mang, holding a chair, face sinister, lifted it to hit Xu Liang.

But...

A figure suddenly jumped down from the staircase like a boulder, landing heavily on Zhang Mang.

"Boom!!!"

The unexpected turn of events stunned the remaining few.

Once they came to, they saw Zhang Mang lying on the ground, nearly fainting.

And the massive figure pressing on him was...

This was Wang Chao!

One strike rendered him incapable of resistance.

Then he abruptly grabbed the ankle of a stunned person nearby, tossing him like a chick, crashing heavily onto a pile of chairs!

"Bang!"

Having successfully dealt with two, Wang Chao retreated to Xu Liang's side.

"Brother Liang, are you alright!?"

Xu Liang cursed, spat out a mouthful of blood, and swore angrily.

"Damn it, almost got killed because of you, kid!"

The guy was supposed to keep watch, but people got so close they could touch his face, and he didn't even warn me!

"It's not my fault, I knocked on the door for ages, and you didn't react!"

Wang Chao protested his innocence, saying he'd spotted Liu Shengjie from the second floor and tried to warn Xu Liang, but knocking on the door had gotten no response.

Seeing the others approaching, he could only hide and wait for a surprise attack!

Not hearing the knock was reasonable.

The noise from the four boilers in the basement was way louder than the knocking, hearing it would be a miracle!

Xu Liang didn't press further.

He looked at the five people left standing in front of him, a trace of disdain in his eyes.

Two against five...

The advantage is mine!

"Heh, I already gave you guys a chance earlier!"

Xu Liang chuckled, handed Wang Chao a wrench, and scanned the remaining five with his cold eyes.

He and Wang Chao together...

Five people?

Not even ten people would be a match for them!!!

Xu Liang rubbed his hands, smiling in a way that was more threatening than friendly.

Liu Shengjie sneered.

The next second.

"Da da da..."

The sound of footsteps suddenly echoed.

Xu Liang froze, looked up, and saw a crowd suddenly swarming the front entrance of the abandoned building.

At a glance... definitely more than ten, at least a dozen!

Xu Liang's smile froze.

"Brother Liu, what's going on? The guys outside were waiting to load the goods, heard the commotion and came running!"

The appearance of over ten people instantly made the scene chaotic.

Liu Shengjie didn't explain, just watched Xu Liang coldly, then spoke:

"There are cops!"

Cops...

Police!?

In an instant, everyone's pupils contracted, and a dozen pairs of eyes fixed on Xu Liang.

Xu Liang: ...

Xu Liang calmly moved closer to Wang Chao.

"Would you believe me if I said I'm not a cop?"

Liu Shengjie personally took charge this time, grabbing an iron bar from the ground.

"Kill him!"

In a flash.

More than ten people charged, creating a tumultuous scene.

Xu Liang's face changed, and he turned to run towards the stairs.

He was fast, and since there were fewer people, no one blocked his path, allowing him to quickly put some distance between them.

But... a figure flashed by.

Xu Liang looked up and couldn't help cursing.

"Damn it, Chao, aren't you a martial arts champion!?"

"How come you ran faster than me!?"

Wang Chao didn't respond, just quickly headed to the second floor and disappeared around the corner.

Xu Liang followed closely, also vanishing from the pursuers' sight.

A few seconds later.

The pursuers caught up, but just as the first was about to step onto the stairs...

"Bang!"

A wrench suddenly appeared from the corner.

"Thud thud!"

The person immediately collapsed, blocking those behind.

"Move him aside!"

Liu Shengjie made a prompt decision, leading people to charge up again.

"Brother Liang, hurry!"

Wang Chao, seeing more and more people, started to get anxious.

"Don't rush me!"

Next to him, Xu Liang gritted his teeth, snapped his dislocated arm back into place, and used all his strength to block the stairway with furniture.

In a matter of seconds, the path to the second floor was sealed shut.

"Jump out the window!"

Xu Liang decisively urged Wang Chao to jump out while Liu Shengjie's group was blocked.

However, when they reached the window, they found...

Two men standing guard downstairs.

Seeing Xu Liang in the window, the two became fierce-eyed.

Xu Liang's face turned grim.

Under normal circumstances, they could handle this easily, but in their current state...

They might be able to escape before exhaustion sets in and get captured!

"This is bad..."

Xu Liang's face went pale as he felt the pain in his arm and looked back at the blocked stairs.

Trapped at both ends...

Jumping was death, staying until they cleared the staircase would also be death...

"Chao, run if you can when the time comes!"

Xu Liang took a deep breath,

Wang Chao was still in decent shape and could potentially escape.

As for himself... not so sure...

Staying would certainly mean death; jumping might give him a shot at survival, but...

Just as he took a few steps back, ready to risk jumping...

Wang Chao suddenly grabbed Xu Liang.

"Brother Liang, look!"

Wang Chao suddenly pointed to the distance, where faint light spots, like fireflies, flickered in the woods.

What was that?

Xu Liang frowned.

No time to think, the spots increased and grew larger, rapidly approaching them.

This was....

"Woo~!"

Suddenly, a siren blared in their ears.

Countless police cars flooded into the welfare institution, their blue and red lights visibly approaching!!!

Police cars!

It's police cars!!!

The two guarding Xu Liang downstairs became a bit panicked.

They looked around but couldn't figure out where the sirens were coming from.

Xu Liang glanced at his watch.

The time had reached November 1, 1:30 AM...

Yang Ruoxi had reported to the police, choosing not to enter recklessly nor call him but decisively reporting as planned...

"Haha, Yang Ruoxi, damn, I love you for this!"

Xu Liang was overjoyed, the weight on his chest lifted.

He turned toward the stairs, laughing triumphantly:

"Now none of you can escape!!!"
