What's wrong with this lawyer?!

After clicking upload, Old Tang was very satisfied. Previously, he didn't like engaging in verbal battles, thinking they were pointless, but now, he suddenly found them somewhat intriguing.

Right on time, Miss Xiao Yan called to say that things were progressing quickly at The Capital's courts, and she predicted he might be able to file his lawsuit the day after tomorrow.

Old Tang's post excited netizens even more. In the past, Old Tang never confronted anyone so directly, or rather, he handled things offline, without such direct confrontations online.

Now? People were definitely ready for some juicy drama; internet verbal showdowns were always entertaining to watch.

As for others in the legal sector, they were secretly shocked. Unless Tang Fangjing had really gone mad, this kind of counterattack was utterly unnecessary.

It's just making an enemy of a big shot for no reason at all.

In Magic City, Chen Jiaquan had just managed to suppress his rage when he saw Old Tang's post. Honestly, even though the netizens' comments were harsh, they were still bearable, right?

But it had been a long time since anyone in the legal field dared to confront him so openly!

His phone was almost smashed to pieces, but Chen Jiaquan didn't know how to respond. Dare he deny it?

But if he didn't deny it, what could he say? Under the rule of law, the man was exercising his legal rights. Sure, the number of defendants was a bit excessive, but he was still within his legal rights.

As for the issue of insufficient judicial resources, what can a single lawyer do? It goes without saying who should address this problem.

After careful consideration, he realized the other party had dug a deep pit for him, one he absolutely must not jump into.

Next to him, a student trembled with fear and hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Boss, should we...?"

"Forget about him, I don't believe he'd actually come to Magic City over something so trivial. He's not really crazy!"

Chen Jiaquan chose to back down and didn't post any response online, acting as if he hadn't seen Tang Fangjing's message at all.

This left the spectating netizens somewhat let down. Everyone was ready with popcorn... ahem, you pull this now? That's it?

But just as Chen Jiaquan believed, nobody thought Tang Fangjing would actually do anything. Online debates are just that, nothing more.

Time flew by to the third day. The news about the mass lawsuit was still trending online, but the heat was slowly dying down.

Amidst all this, Old Tang energetically dragged his briefcase to the entrance of Guangming District Court.

A lawyer glanced over and nearly popped his eyes out. That briefcase's quality was so good it looked like it was about to burst!

At the case filing office, the staff looked at the sweating Tang Fangjing and then at his briefcase, their eyes filled with confusion: "Lawyer Tang, let's talk calmly. The stuff online isn't true, right?"

Old Tang wiped his sweat and laughed, "Of course it's not true. How could it be? There's no way it's over a thousand."

The staff immediately let out a sigh of relief.

"It's just 1,085 cases, to be exact. Anything more than that is pure slander!"

Staff: "???"

Looking at the briefcase, the staff swallowed hard and resignedly said, "Lawyer Tang, take them out please..."

Today... no, forget about leaving on time this week. With this mountain of documents to review, it could take ages.

But when he thought about it, it seemed not too bad for him. The judges in the civil court would probably be thrilled.

Old Tang also thought that the civil court judges would be thrilled. For instance, Old Zhou—I've long found his thick hair irritating. How could a qualified judge have such a full head of hair?

That's not right, it needs correcting...

Where did this bizarre compulsion come from? Next time I go for a mental health check-up, I'll sort this issue out as well.

After handing over all the documents, Old Tang left with his empty briefcase, feeling light as a feather as he walked.

Checking the time, that Professor Chen from Magic City hasn't responded yet. I sent no less than ten messages via direct message, only to be blocked.

Meeting in person was initially negotiable, but now with this attitude, after I made comments and you didn't let me speak out in my defense, what choice did I have but to address this in person?

Conveniently, I was about to attend a criminal self-prosecution case in Magic City, so I might as well make the trip.

After greeting Old Wang back at the office, Old Tang booked a flight and took off. By evening, he had already arrived in Magic City.

Zheng Baolin had been released. After all, he was only summoned for questioning, and naturally, they let him go when his time was up.

Sitting at home, he was completely listless. He had never thought highly of Tang Fangjing from the start.

An illegitimate graduate, one who hadn't even completed a master's degree and who had never worked in the legal field, just happened to win an overtime pay case by sheer luck, and then he became excessively hyped.

His case even got selected by the Supreme Court: all sheer luck.

After reluctantly sharing and commenting on the case, deep down, he looked down on it. In his eyes, only lawyers who had undergone years of specialized study, like himself, were real lawyers.

The hierarchy of disdain within the profession... it's all normal.

But who would have thought he'd be facing a criminal complaint raised by the other party now, with a decent chance of being convicted if he didn't settle?

Left with no choice, he dialed the other's number.

"Hello, Lawyer Tang, this is... this is Zheng Baolin."

However, a voice on the phone dashed Old Zheng's last hopes.

"You're that lawyer, Old Zheng, aren't you?"

The other party knew; he actually knew he was that lawyer, Old Zheng!

"No, Lawyer Tang, that's not it, I was just a bit out of my mind earlier..." Old Zheng was trying to rush an apology.

But Lawyer Tang interjected directly, "Too late, Lawyer Zheng. Let me tell you, I definitely won't settle with you!"
