A scent wafted through the room, and Pullman woke up from his slumber, looking at the cluttered room in front of him.

The smell wafting from the kitchen caused Pullman to stumble over, where a young man was cooking with his waist tied.

"I'm sorry, but let you clean up the house for me."

Heathcot smiled, and quickly put the two plates of omelet rice on the table, and Pullman ate them like dates.

"You're Lyons' son!"

Click

Pullman put down the spoon, and Heath was still chewing slowly, the overall movement was very gentle, and it looked cautious, as if he was tasting the food, giving people a sense of ritual.

"It tastes good, thank you, Heathcote."

A dull pullman lit a cigarette, and Heathcote smiled and quickly began to put away the dishes, and when everything was done, he washed his hands and sat down.

Looking at this young man's every move, Pullman felt a little surprised, he had seen this boy brother when he was in and out of the bar association before, the son of Lyons, the president of the bar association, and now the more he looked at it, the more he was impressed, but he couldn't be sure of the reason why this boy came, the child was only 18 years old in his memory, but he didn't know why, he always felt that it was slightly different from the impression he had seen before.

It's arrogance!

Pullman reacted, he used to see Lyons take the child with him, and wherever Lyons passed, the lawyers would stand aside and bow, and the child was a little arrogant like his father.

"Life at the Academy of God should be pretty good!"

Heathcot laughed.

"In the past, I was beaten 28 times by the fat brother when I was eating, because I spoiled the food, and I was beaten 103 times when I was rude to others.

"That's a disaster!"

Pullman smiled, looking at the smile on the young man's face, and the sincerity in his eyes, which was completely different from before.

Pullman also happened to meet some of the students of the Academy, and although it was not clear what they were like in school, they were all aspirants.

Pullman directly took out a document with crumpled marks, and then pointed to the case on it that made Pullman almost collapse.

"It is impossible for the client, Miss Xu Fen, to commit suicide!"

Pullman looked at Heathcot suspiciously.

"Please think carefully about Attorney Pullman, when was the last time you saw Miss Xu Fen."

Pullman looked at the documents on the table, and his hands began to tremble again, in this case more than 3 years ago, Xu Fen, as the victim, used to work in a body trade in a club called Lido on Qinglong Street, and at about 3 o'clock in the morning on July 21, 2196, on the way home, he was tailed by someone, and then was violated by 6 people in turn.

The six people involved are all children of the Hillman family, but all six of them have said that they have paid and have been allowed by Xu Fen, and as for the violent treatment, it is just spending money to have fun, which is also the type of service provided by some shops on Qinglong Street.

The three-year-long lawsuit, in the end, lost the lawsuit twice because there was no conclusive evidence, and finally under the offensive of media public opinion, Xu Fen committed suicide by jumping off the building.

Pullman was still trying to remember, his hands still shaking, and Heathcot placed a bottle of wine in front of Pullman, unscrewed it and drank it with a gurgling face.

"Why do you think so?"

"Because I think that from the manipulation of public opinion 2 years ago to the 645 days after Miss Xu Fen's suicide, in the past two years of torment, have you ever seen this young lady have thoughts of suicide?"

Pullman shook her head, but Xu Fen would cry to herself from time to time, and in the process of being violated, they were not only verbally insulted, the whole process was like hell, so she wanted to rely on the law to make the other party pay.

"That's right, the scene of the suicide, I once asked a few students in our school, they all felt that the scene was too clean after reading the information, and before a person committed suicide, nothing was left, unless she had nothing, there is nothing worth remembering in this world, after all, people are emotional animals, I once asked my classmates to help investigate, she also has a younger sister, as well as parents, and also investigated the surrounding neighbors, although the family has lived a hard life since childhood, but it is very happy."

"Why do you think so!"

Heathcot said with a smile.

"One night, I heard my father talk to someone on the phone about this, and he said that he would take care of the matter, so I speculate that they are afraid of some conclusive evidence being exposed, and you may have approached the evidence that can conclude the case, I clearly remember hearing it a month before Miss Xu Fen committed suicide."

Pullman stood up, clutching the bottle tightly in his hand, his emotions becoming more and more excited, and all the clues in his mind were constantly changing.

"There is no conclusive evidence, but because of the impact of this incident, the reputation of the Hillman family has suffered, the stock price has been on a downward trend for almost two years, and recently it has started to rise again, and not everyone believes the nonsense of the media."

"That's right, lawyer pullman, some of the guilty inferences you have listed are not false, why Miss Xu Fen committed suicide, or had to commit suicide, and why the media's public opinion has gradually changed from a critical attitude two years ago to a one-sided accusation against your unscrupulous pair, a vicious woman who will do anything for money, and an unscrupulous lawyer who is also unscrupulous for money."

Pullman nodded, looking at the document earnestly.

"Why are you helping me?"

"I'm not helping you, but I just want to maintain a little bit of the dignity of the law, if the law can't achieve the minimum justice, but is manipulated, guided by the public opinion media, and even guided by public opinion, then the law is over, and the three major schools of law, no matter which faction, the ultimate goal is justice."

After Pullman extinguished the cigarette butt, he lit another cigarette.

"Where did you find these, such as Xu Fen's family and relatives, I once asked her, she always just said that she was alone, fatherless and motherless, and grew up in an orphanage."

"Maybe it's because of the kind of industry she does, and what happened after that, she also has something she wants to protect, and if you want, I'll take you there now, Pullman."

Pullman stood up in surprise.

"There is no doubt that my classmates are very powerful investigative experts, although some things are against the law and even inhumane! But since the other side uses extreme measures, then we can't do anything about it. ”

.......

"I don't know what you're talking about, I'm going to find a lawyer, I'm going to report the case, you don't have the right to ......."

C smiled and sat quietly in front of a computer, this kind of ancient computer, she was a little unfamiliar with it, and finally found the file after looking for a long time.

A middle-aged man, tied to a chair next to his wife and children, huddled in a corner shivering.

"Come on, little friend, uncle will take you to the next room, it's okay, we're just here to ask about something, it's okay."

K said that he took the child away from his mother's arms, and the woman wanted to scream but could only cry silently.

"You persuade your husband and lady, we are just a routine investigation."

K said and took the shivering little boy back into the room.

"What's your name, little friend?"

"Pan Hua!"

K entered the room and pulled out a pair of Pan Hua's toys.

"How about we play together, I'm good at playing."

C leaned back in his chair and looked at the reports written on the computer with very eye-catching headlines and inflammatory words, and the source of the report was this CBV media company, the largest media company in the past decade.

"We are just seeking truth from facts, we are reporting, if you insist on saying that we distort the facts, please come up with evidence, if there is no evidence, I will protest directly to the Congress tomorrow, you trespass and ........ against me"

The man knew very well, he had vaguely heard at some banquets, some guys were operating in the shadows, they would kill criminals mercilessly, conduct top-secret investigations and arrests, they belonged to the Congress, and the man also knew that he would never be fine, he didn't believe that these people dared to do anything to him.

R smiled and stood up, waving his hand helplessly.

"What are I going to do? If you can't do what your classmates ask you to do, it's very embarrassing. ”

R was a little worried, he didn't dare to leave here, if C started to be ruthless and really did something, the three of them would go back tomorrow, they would definitely be beaten up by the principal, they didn't get any authorization for this matter, it was a private investigation, and several classmates also asked them to check this matter by the way when they were out on business.

C casually opened the man's drawer, took out a pack of cigarettes, lit it, and took a puff.

"It tastes really good."

The man stared at C with a flamboyant stare at him.

"I'll sue you."

C giggled.

"I heard that there are a lot of invisible people in the city, and a lot of things are made by those invisible people, do you know, Mr. Pan Chen, let's do it."

C said and looked around left and right, began to knock over some things indiscriminately, and put on leather gloves directly.

"What are you going to do?"

R looked at C with a solemn expression.

"Since he won't say anything, go to the other side of the world and say it, and fake it as a robbery and murder scene."

In an instant, the man struggled angrily, R looked at C in a daze, this matter is not a trivial matter, this man is the largest shareholder of CBV, or the person in charge of CBV, if he dies, tomorrow will not be as simple as robbery and murder.

"Just burn it, don't worry, I'll do it clean, do it!"

The man was still silent, and instead of being frightened by C, he continued to laugh.

"Whatever you want, it is true that you can fake it, but if there is any problem with our family tonight, tomorrow morning, my friends will go to Congress to appeal for me, and this matter will definitely be thoroughly investigated, and the media in the whole city will follow and report it for a long time."

At this time, K walked out slowly, the husband and wife looked worriedly, and K played a recording, which was Pan Hua's words.

The recording shows Pan Hua seeing a masked man in black coming to his house, and then bringing a box of money, which is hidden in the basement.

C smiled and looked around, R went straight to the floor of the living room, lifted the carpet, and activated the device, but with a combination lock and fingerprint authentication.

"Some trouble, give me about 1 hour ......."

"Get out of the way."

As C spoke, he suddenly punched him.

bang

With a loud bang, the door to the basement entrance was smashed directly.

"Wait........"

Pan Chen shouted, his face was a little solemn at this time, and C turned his head.

"Economic crime is very serious, sir, please explain clearly where the money comes from."

Soon C opened a safe in the basement, and there were indeed a lot of neatly stacked banknotes in it, and at a casual glance, there were at least 30 million.

"You scumbags, scumbags who use children."

Pan Chen scolded, K smiled, shook his head, and held a deck of cards.

"Your kid is very smart and cute, I'm just playing a game with him, and if I lose, I have to answer each other's questions, it's just a game, right, Xiao Pan."

Pan Hua trembled, looking at his angry father, and his mother ran over and hugged her son.

"Madam, your husband has a record of cheating many times, if you want to know the truth, just ask your son."

"Shut the fuck."

Pan Chen roared, the woman looked at her husband in shock, she was stunned for a while, and when she looked at her son again, he saw the indifference in her son's eyes.

"It's true that someone gave me money to report according to their requirements, but we won't ask who it is, and since you have investigated me, you naturally know what the media industry is all about."

R nodded, over the years, with the development of the entertainment industry, the media industry has naturally risen with the tide, more and more media people, media agencies have appeared, but most of the reports are actually manipulated, Congress is a point, and the business families are the same, using the news media as a tool mouthpiece.

There was no way to effectively contain such a state of affairs, and R walked over and let go of the rope for Pan Chen, at which point he sighed.

"This matter has nothing to do with us, we only take money to do things, as for who the client is, we don't know, and don't want us to stand in court to testify, you can do it yourself."

Pan Chen said and caught a cigarette handed by C.

"Do you know anything extra, Mr. Pan Chen, your actions are already suspected of obstructing the justice of the law."

Pan Chen laughed.

"The law of bullshit, it's just a rich man's toy, I give you a suggestion, if you really want to investigate this matter, wouldn't it be nice if the goal wasn't we to go directly to the Hillman family!"

The smile on C's face was a little gloomy, and after a while, the three of them left the Pan Chen family's mansion.

"You don't really want to go."

K asked, and C shook his head.

"What do you think will happen if you destroy the whole city, or what will happen if you move the Hillman family?"

R opened his eyes.

"It's going to burn, and the whole city will be on fire."

.......

January 8, 2200

Early in the morning, a large number of media reporters gathered in the conference hall of the Hillman pharmaceutical company, and Eddie was dressed proudly and handsome, and the members of the Hillman family were sitting next to him.

"Mr. Eddie, every year you submit new drugs to Congress, as well as some micro-technologies, which are a huge contribution to the whole city, how many technologies will you submit this time?"

Eddie smiled and stood up, his hands pressed on the table.

"There are a total of 16 related technologies in various fields, including 3 new synthetic drugs, which are mainly used to fight cancer, and the effect is outstanding, but there may be a little side effect, and our medical experts are researching, and will definitely provide the most stable and safe drugs for the city."

"What about the price?"

Eddie took out three pills of different colors directly from under the table.

"One 200 ml, three types of drugs are good at fighting cancer, and the tentative price starts at 200 a piece."

Instantly, the audience burst into warm applause, this is the program that will inevitably come in the early morning of January 8 every year, and many news channels in the city will broadcast it live, and the Eddie family's technical submission meeting.

Outside, three members of the National Assembly walked in, reporters began to take pictures, and soon Eddie came down from the stage, shook hands with the three members and bowed, and then the two sides signed a technical submission agreement.

At this time, at the door of the Hillman family, a man with a wound on his face held a sign with two large black letters on it, Demon.

"Doctor Zhou Chen, is what you said true?"

"Yes, they cheated me out of the technology of new drugs, they are a bunch of shameless demons, a bunch of vampires, those anti-cancer drugs, one of them, they didn't invent it at all, it's me, I'm the inventor."

At this time, with eager cheers, a 17-year-old child of the Hillman family walked out of the hall, and a large number of reporters flocked to him, calling the child a genius in the field of medicine, who invented some drugs every year, and was a genius in the mouth of media reporters.

"Bastards, you bastards......."

Zhou Chen rushed over, but was quickly pressed down by the bodyguard, and the young genius of the Hillman family glanced at the doctor who was pressed to the ground with disdain.

Do you believe this gossip? Our family has a state-of-the-art medical research environment, and it's just a small clinic doctor, who can do what he can do. ”

As he spoke, the young man took out a few hundred yuan from his pocket and put it in front of Zhou Chen.

"Doctor Zhou, please stop making trouble, if you really want to prove that the drug was developed by you, please come up with evidence, but please don't slander our family with empty words."

Zhou Chen's angry roar was quickly drowned out by laughter, and he looked at Hillman Pharmaceutical in front of him in a daze.

The outside world has mixed reviews of the Hillman family, especially for their family's frequent geniuses, which have been criticized, and the Hillman family's response is that their family adopts a genius education method, and the people in the family are young people who are willing to work hard for the future of the city.

Eddie took three congressional members to the upper office, and all three looked at Eddie with a smile on their faces.

"It's really hard work for the three of you today, please do everything when you submit the technology, try to make the process can't find any faults, these technologies belong to our Hillman family, do you understand?"

The three of them nodded one after another, Eddie snapped his fingers, and soon several mutants in suits came over with three boxes and handed them over to the three of them, the three of them looked at each other, weighed the weight of the boxes, nodded and turned away with satisfaction.

Eddie then sat at the top of the conference room, and a large number of family members walked in, all talking about some personal matters.

"You shit."

As soon as Eddie spoke, everyone sat down in an instant, and they didn't dare to say anything with their heads down.

"These six gangs have not performed well at the bottom this year, and after getting back the principal, stop transfusing blood to them."

Eddie said, looking at a list of low-level loan sharks, as well as the amount of profits recovered this year, the six gangs have basically only passed the passing line every year in the past three years, and Eddie will not show mercy to this kind of guy who eats and waits for death.

The entire Hillman family is so brilliant because of Eddie's single-handedness, and his position in the family has not been shaken so far, just like a lonely king, no one dares to oppose all of Eddie's orders.

"Give you money to let you enter the real estate market, you can't even do a little thing, what's the use of asking you?"

Eddie said coldly, and the seven middle-aged people present stood up trembling in an instant.

"Young master, we really tried our best, we really tried our best, but you also know that the real estate market is not as good as it was in the past few years, and it ........"

"I don't need to listen to you say these excuses and reasons, waste is waste, you don't need to do this project, who can do it, stand up."

After a while, Eddie finished a family meeting, yawned, and a mutant bodyguard walked in, holding a laptop, and pulled up a copy of the findings.

Eddie smiled slightly, and sighed helplessly, a few people who have not seen each other for several years have become willing to be mediocre, although Freya is still carrying out some activities in the upper 1st district, but it is insignificant for the entire huge medical system, and the so-called people are soft-spoken.

Although the Alboron family has a place in the city and has enough influence, the current Alberon family owner Charles is just a mediocre businessman, and the biggest characteristic of a mediocre businessman is that he is conservative, as long as the business is stable, he will never move a step when he is not completely sure.

It won't be long before Freya marries such a mediocre, sleek and lying man because of her family connections, and she will become like her husband.

What surprised Eddie the most was that Wu Qun actually opened a restaurant.

"Next time I have a chance to go to his place for a meal, haha."

For a guy like Wu Qun, opening a restaurant is probably worse than death, he has taken care of social activities in the past few years, and even got involved in the Chen family's disputes, but not only did not help, but Chen Qiao was grounded.

The other guys were also more unsatisfactory than the other, especially Pullman, Eddie sighed.

"Hey, Pullman, Pullman, once a person takes a wrong step, many times it may be doomed."

Eddie knew very well that Pullman's career as a lawyer might end because of this, he looked at Pullman's current depressed appearance, and sighed, the young people in the family were doing Eddie was very clear, and a few drunk guys were improvised and wanted to find something exciting to play.

The elders in the family have already dealt with the matter properly, and after looking at other people's investigation reports, Eddie breathed a long sigh of relief, Lin Xiao and Wang Ying, who used to be the most face-saving people in the school, one became an electrical salesman, and the other opened a building materials store.

Eddie felt a little that the world is impermanent, he is getting bigger and bigger, even if the city has introduced an anti-monopoly law and a commodity sales law, he still has a way to control everything.

"By the way, tomorrow will be a class reunion, on January 1st."

Eddie looked at the recent situation of the eight people with a slightly disappointed expression, they are now complete failures, bad careers, bad lives, have tended to be mediocre, and they will only have the fate of being slaughtered in the future, no matter how powerful they were when they were students, but now they are nothing.

........

"Alright, Alpha, you can talk to your classmates about something."

Jean watched the students stand seriously under the stage, Alpha walked out of the queue and jumped onto the stage, Alpha is the president of the 5 subjects at the same time, he is also the student president of the seminary, and Locke is the director, he is in the 1 subject.

Alpha stood in front of the platform seriously, glanced at the students in the school, and then firmly pressed his right hand into a fist on his chest.

"In the future, I only hope that you will not forget what we were like on the day we entered the school, and what we are standing here for!"

It was just a very brief statement, and there was warm applause from the audience, Jean smiled, looking at the serious and meticulous Alpha, and felt very gratified, in the past 4 years, she has done a good job, although she is only 13 years old, but the students recognize her.

"I just hope you can keep up the good work! Please prepare quickly, in addition to the 10 subjects, 12 subjects do not need to go to class today, students in other subjects please prepare, because from today we will gradually increase the intensity, please be mentally prepared, 10 subjects of students please under the leadership of the class leader and officer, go to the research room, 12 subjects of students too, please go to the agricultural experiment field, by 6 o'clock in the afternoon, I need to get something definite, whether it is a problem or a discovery! ”
