Volume 2 Exotic Prestige Section 23 A Hero and Three Gangs
When Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian arrived at the "Home Detective Agency", Jessica Jones was sitting at her desk drinking alcohol. She saw Liu Zheng through the hole in the door without glass, jumped up happily, pounced on it and gave a bear hug, so enthusiastic that Luo Zhijian on the side was stunned.
"Liu, why did you leave first?"
Jessica, who got out of Liu Zheng's arms, slapped him dissatisfied.
Liu Zheng smiled at her and said, "I'm in a bit of a hurry, I see that you are sleeping soundly, so I will leave first, sorry." β
"Then let's make an appointment next time."
"Okay, anytime."
Luo Zhijian's jaw was about to fall to the ground.
"Worm, let me introduce you, this is Jessica Jones, the owner of this detective agency." Luo Zhijian gave an introduction to the two sides, so that everyone knew each other.
Jessica pointed to the bottle on the table, "Have a drink?" β
Placed on the table was a bottle of Red Star Erguotou. I don't know where she bought it from, this wine is more than 60 degrees, Liu Zheng himself doesn't dare to drink it, girl, you are too fierce...
He quickly diverted the topic and asked, "Jesse, what are you up to?" β
At the mention of this, Jessica's excitement immediately disappeared, and she returned to her dejected appearance: "Ah... And that's not all about John Raymond. β
"So you saw the note I left for you, and her wife came looking for you again?"
"yes, I came once, I was in a hurry, and I said a bunch of things that I had heard, 'He's clean, it's not like him, bla bla bla', but it seems to me to be a cheating case. Plus, her daughter is so unlikable! β
"So you took the case?" In fact, Liu Zheng didn't want Jessica to get involved in his heart, he always felt that this matter was not so simple.
Jessica spread her hands: "I have to pay the rent, I have to buy wine and eat, so I need a job." β
"Okay." Now that she has taken over, Liu Zheng is not ready to make any more irresponsible remarks, he walked up to Jessica and asked, "Is there anything new to discover?" β
Jessica pointed to the search results on the screen and said, "Graduated from MIT, designed two skyscrapers in Dubai and four in Manhattan, and his flower news can't be found on the Internet." Looks like a clean guy, right? But who knows, maybe a good guy is hiding somewhere to have fun when he's tired of changing his tastes, or maybe he's fooling around with an intern, I've seen a lot of this kind of thing. β
"Do you have any clues?"
Jessica's shoulders slumped and she reached out and grabbed her hair: "No, I can't find any clues..."
Seeing that she wanted to reach out for the wine bottle again, Liu Zheng hurriedly held her hand down, hesitated for a moment, and still told the mysterious phone call.
"Why didn't you say it earlier!" Jessica gave him a strange look, picked up the telephone on the table and dialed out, and landlines in the United States could contact the wiring center to check the number.
"Hey, there's a call from my voice message machine that doesn't show the number, I don't know if you can tell me where it's calling~" Jessica deliberately pretended to be embarrassed, and her voice was a lot clearer, obviously she usually did a lot of fooling people, "... Can you think of a way~ I think it may be my grandfather, he has Alzheimer's... He may have wanted to contact me. β
This girl is really first-class in deception! Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian couldn't help laughing beside them.
"Ah, actually, I'm here
There is a missing person report with the number right in front of me, if you want to hear it I can read it to you... Oh really~ That's so much appreciate! Jessica quickly picked up the note and gave an address, thanked her, and hung up.
"Now in this year, there are still people using the pay phones on the street, and I thought they were all dismantled." She muttered as she typed the address she had just jotted down on her computer, "11th Avenue... 49th Street... Damn, it's here! β
A photo popped up on the computer, a dilapidated apartment building.
Jessica has the impression that as the property of Wilson Fisk, the biggest mob boss and well-known entrepreneur in Hell's Kitchen, he once wanted to bulldoze the building to rebuild a new commercial center, but the residents of it refused to move out, and he did a lot of evil things to rob and even kill people. It was only later that his affairs were revealed and he was taken into custody in a New York prison, and the matter was closed, and the apartment building became an unmanaged place, and if anyone wanted to do something unseemly, it was the most suitable place to retreat.
She grabbed the coat on the chair and wanted to run out, but was pulled by Liu Zheng.
"I almost forgot to get down to business, I came to ask you, do you know where Matthew Murdoch lives?"
"Matthew Murdoch, the lawyer?" Jessica was stunned, the building she was about to rush to was still related to Murdoch, "What are you looking for him?" β
Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian said in unison: "A friend." β
"I don't know where he lives, but he has a law firm with an address..." Jessica didn't bother to think about it, turned around and wrote an address, and then ran away in a hurry, and didn't forget to shout to Liu Zheng when she left, "Remember to ask me out!" β
Knowing that the person had been gone for a long time, Luo Zhijian was stunned and said: "No, Lao Liu, when did you know the beautiful women, they all cooked rice and cooked rice, and they didn't tell me." β
"Don't talk nonsense, I can't hold her..."Liu Zheng looked at the big hole in the door in a daze, this girl just ran away? The heart is really big enough. He looked at the tattered walls and the more deformed refrigerator, and if he couldn't lock the door, he wouldn't lock it, there was nothing to steal anyway.
......
41st Street [Nielsen & Murdoch Law Firm]
Matt Murdoch's dark and empty eyes stared straight at the two of them, the muscles of his whole body tensed, and his face was guarded.
"That's... We're not here to get in trouble. Liu Zheng explained, "We came to think..."
"Who are you and what is he?" Murdoch interrupted Liu Zheng's words and pointed at Luo Zhijian.
Luo Zhijian exploded when he heard it: "Can you speak, who is he, and what will it become to me?" You can't see that Lao Tzu is a human being? β
Liu Zheng pulled his clothes, stabilized his emotions and said: "We are Huaxia, my name is Luoyang, this is Luo Zhijian, and we are friends of Danny Rand." Then he asked Luo Zhijian to recount what happened in the morning, and said sincerely: "We know that you are a very good lawyer, so I want you to come forward and help us prove Danny's innocence." β
Murdoch sneered: "Why should I help with this, I don't even know you." Danny Landstadtten's case has not yet been closed, and now he has been arrested for drug trafficking, hehe, the district prosecutor will definitely stare at him like a vulture staring at dead meat, which is a lot of political achievement. β
"Danny has nothing to do with drugs, it's an organization called the Hand Club
What the hell is going on behind it, we even knocked out the drug-making den! Think about it, with a company as big as the RAND Group, isn't it good for Danny Rand to be his rich man safely, and what is he trying to do with thankless drug trafficking? Luo Zhijian said angrily.
Liu Zheng seemed much calmer: "Mr. Murdoch, although your eyes can't see, we all know that you have a special talent for sensing, and I believe you must know that we are not lying." β
Murdoch was silent for a while, but still shook his head and said: "I'm just a second-rate lawyer who undertakes free small lawsuits, gentlemen, your big case, forgive me for not being competent, please choose another high-ranking lawyer." β
Luo Zhijian was not happy when he saw Murdoch's appearance, and he didn't plan to stay here for a second, so he was about to leave with Liu Zheng.
At this moment, Murdoch's phone rang, and he picked it up and listened for a while, with a surprised expression on his face.
"Hey, wait a minute!" He shouted from behind, and the two turned back.
Karen said Danny Rand had told her that the RAND Group would shut down the chemical plant on Staten Island and hoped that the Gazette would publish the information. Is this true? β
Liu Zheng nodded, although he didn't know the specific time of the announcement, but Danny's thoughts were known to them, and it seemed that he was going to talk about it when he asked Karen Peggy to eat that day.
Murdoch was about to say something when the phone rang again, and this time he picked it up, the look of surprise on his face was not so obvious.
He hung up the phone and said, "It was the residents of Staten Island who called and said that Danny Rand had provided them with free medical care and a large amount of compensation, and they had decided to drop the lawsuit." β
"Is the news of Danny Rand's arrest now known, and both calls want me to take over the case and get him out... It seems that I can't do it if I don't help. Murdoch paid attention, bowed slightly to the two of them, and said aloud, "I'm very sorry, I take back what I just said." Now allow me to reacquaint myself with both of you, I'm Matthew Michael Murdoch, your lawyer, and I'm going to take on Danny Rand's case, and it's a pleasure to serve both of them. β
Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian were immediately overjoyed.
"However, because of Danny Rand's special status, as far as I know, the RAND Group has hired a professional legal team, "Hogarth-Zhao-Bannowitz Firm", and all legal services are provided by them, and I must..."
"No, no, no, no! No, no, no! The two of them shouted in unison.
"If there is a ghost in the RAND Group, then we are finished!"
"We only trust you, Mr. Murdoch, and it's better not to get more people involved."
Murdoch interrupted them with a wave of his hand: "That's not going to happen, I know Jerry Hogarth." And like I said, Danny Rand is a special person, and they wish that someone would want to come out so that they can stand alone. After all, if you don't do well and offend the owner, it's not a good thing. As he spoke, he pointed to the sign hanging at the door, "Don't worry, my best friend is in that firm, and he used to be my partner." If we want to know more about it, we have to turn to them. β
Seeing that the two didn't say anything more, he dialed another number and made an appointment with the person on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, you guys wait here, the people from the office will be there in a moment."
Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian glanced at each other helplessly, although they were still a little uneasy in their hearts, but at present, it could only be like this.
