www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of My Wife is an Archon!
Several new apartment buildings with around 20 floors stand on the coast of Beiguan.
At this time, Lu Ming, accompanied by Wen Liangyu, was wandering around the top floor on the 22nd floor of Building 1.
These buildings, named "Left Bank Garden", are the latest luxury apartment buildings in Beiguan. Their floor heights and apartment prices have also set new records in Beiguan.
The top floor is a duplex structure, and the interior is extremely luxurious. There are large floor-to-ceiling windows on all sides, and a 360-degree circular view without blind spots. The natural scenery outside cleverly becomes the indoor perspective. Press the electric curtains, and Extremely private.
Moreover, Building 1 has the best view. To the south is the blue sea and sky, and to the north is the huge Ferris wheel of the Borna Playground. At night, the Ferris wheel lights flash, creating an excellent visual effect.
Outside, there is an extremely safe open balcony, including a small blue swimming pool.
This is the "penthouse" concept of luxury apartments that is emerging in Donghai.
Wen Liangyu smiled and said: "I know you are busy, so I must come. I just want you to take a look. Is it okay here? You see, the feeling here is completely different from the villa on Hepu Road. I feel that you I need a penthouse like this."
Lu Ming smiled: "Are you giving it to me?"
Wen Liangyu immediately laughed happily, "Of course, otherwise, why would I bring you here?"
Lu Ming immediately waved his hand: "I really like this place, but I'm introducing you to the project here. I guess Fourth Brother, you won't be able to buy an apartment on this floor with all your income. Isn't your hard work in vain? I'm afraid you'll have to pay more. Giving back money..."
Left Bank Garden was created by a major customer of Baoyin Bank, who was also one of the investors of Lu Ming’s Han Dynasty Private Equity Fund.
Wen Liangyu was also given some work here, mainly the later outer floor building construction and inner decoration.
After all, when I became familiar with the big client, construction had already started here. For example, Building 1 was the first to be built, using a construction company from the urban area, which had better qualifications after all.
Lu Ming was thinking that Wen Liangyu had a big internal discount and wanted to give him one. Moreover, there were only a few penthouses in the Left Bank Garden. If you could occupy a big place, you didn't have to be rich.
My business partner actually asked me if I could keep one, but he didn’t come to see it, so he just said no.
Now that Wen Liangyu is rubbing her around in circles, I really regret it.
But the money Wen Liangyu earned from this left bank garden may not necessarily be able to buy the penthouse apartment in Building 1, because compared with the penthouse apartments in several other buildings, the penthouse apartment in Building 1 is the largest and most luxurious. , just this apartment, in fact, this should be regarded as the 23rd floor, and the layout of the apartments on the 22nd floor below belongs to a different concept.
The project that Wen Liangyu took over from this real estate had all kinds of expenses, and he himself should not be left behind much.
After all, it was my first time to cooperate with my business partner. The materials used were abundant and the price was not high.
"What is money without money!" Wen Liangyu smiled: "Qianxing you let me enter this kind of circle, if I add it all up, I have spent much more money than this, and I have never even touched the door!"
Smiling again, Wen Liangyu said: "What's more, Qianxing, your current identity is exactly my nemesis, brother!" She smiled as she spoke.
I also smiled bitterly in my heart. I couldn't see the cards behind this little brother, and I didn't need to think about it. It just showed that with his current status, I was considered to be a high-ranking person if I made friends with him.
Fortunately, when I got to know him, it was still a relatively young age, and I understood his temperament and valued friendship.
As for the old Zhao family’s bad things, if the second person is replaced, the Zhao family will be finished.
After listening to Wen Liangyu's words, Lu Ming smiled, walked to the west floor-to-ceiling window to look at the scenery, and suddenly exclaimed: "That's Fernald College? It's quite close!"
Wen Liangyu laughed: "Yes, Qianxing, it's convenient for you to go to school. You're in the second grade, right?!"
Lu Ming was helpless, but thinking about it, he originally wanted to go once every half month, but apart from reporting for the beginning of school, he has never been there until now.
Too busy.
You might as well wait for the final exam at the end of the year and take the exam. Even though you are not good at foreign language, you can still be confident in other subjects.
Of course, you don’t have to answer the questions with all your strength, just mean it.
After the final exam results are released, at least there should be no danger of reducing the class size and enrolling in Form One.
A partial subject, but not really a scumbag.
Thinking wildly, Lu Ming said: "Okay, fourth brother, I'll be disrespectful, but like this, it's hard for me to come here, especially busy recently. No one lives here and it's not popular. It's not good. You It’s popular to find someone to help me clean the room every day. The property fee here should be quite high, and there should be a housekeeper, right?”
Wen Liangyu smiled and said: "No problem, let's do this. I'll ask Xiaoling to come here every day. I don't worry about finding a maid. I'll mess around with you and lie down on your bed. How dirty is it?"
"How can I trouble my sister-in-law?" Lu Ming was helpless. Jia Xiaoling had seen Fourth Brother Wen's lover, a very comfortable woman who liked to wear cheongsam.
"Just leave it alone!" Wen Liangyu waved her hand and said, "That's it? You're quite busy too."
Lu Ming looked at his watch and nodded: "Yes, it's time for me to go back!"
Brother Wen is quite considerate.
……
In the Husky Hotel, prosecutors and patrol officers were coming in and out, and they were all very busy.
In Lu Ming's room, Lu Ming was discussing with several team leaders the closure of one of the evidence chains.
Starting from Jordan, these prosecutors only listen. Commissioner Lu is too meticulous about the chain of evidence. He considers almost every loophole that the other party's lawyer may target. He is worthy of being a criminal defense lawyer. , it’s okay not to admire him.
The "red line" phone on the table rang. Lu Ming picked up the phone and listened to the conversation. He frowned slightly and turned to look at a few people: "Just now, Booker showed up and surrendered at the Third Police Station. "The Third Police Station, in the West District.
Everyone was stunned.
After thinking for a while, Lu Ming waved his hand: "Little Renault, catch him too!"
Several team leaders immediately stood up and took action.
Lu Ming paced, thinking about something.
"Will the court sentence them all harshly?" Next to them, Han Anni's voice was clear and crisp.
Han Anni has always done her job as a secretary and never asked any questions. This is the first time she has asked about the case.
"I think there's no problem. The variables are Booker and Leno. I think they should be prosecuted as double-headed offenders." Lu Ming pondered, "Let's see how Booker gives a confession!"
Going back to the table, picking up the case and the countless confessions, Lu Ming looked at it again.
On the other side of the screen, Han Anni looked at Lu Ming, who was frowning at work and immersed in the case, and blinked with big eyes. This bad guy, at this time, was completely different from usual.
"Annie, is the mattress I changed for you comfortable to sleep on? I recently found another good thing. It is for foot massage. It is very relaxing. I will buy it for you later!"
Lu Ming suddenly stretched and said, as if he had read the transcript at a certain stage and wanted to take a rest.
Han Anni was speechless and turned back to look at her notes, pretending not to hear.
Lu Ming remained silent until more than two hours later.
The phone rang suddenly and quickly, and Lu Ming immediately picked up the phone.
Inside, Zhang Xianhe's excited voice said: "Commissioner, this is great. Booker's confession stated that Little Reno is a pervert and likes to collect the brains of victims. Moreover, in Little Reno's bedroom, the refrigerator There are a lot of victims’ brains in the bottle. Little Reno likes to sleep with these brains! Can this pervert still deny it?”
Lu Ming hummed, hung up the phone, and pondered.
The phone rang suddenly again.
Called from Cantona, "Commissioner, it seems that little Renaud has been prepared. There is a barrister accompanying him, named Richard Hanson. He is from the Imperial City, but his attitude is very good. He said that his client , are willing to cooperate with our investigation and will follow us."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Ming thought for a moment and pulled out the drawer. Inside was a copy of the 949th Yearbook of the Imperial Bar Association, which was last year's yearbook.
After flipping through a few pages, I saw Richard Hansen’s name, no wonder it felt familiar.
He is a very famous criminal defense lawyer in the imperial capital. He has a remarkable record in the yearbook. Especially at the end of last year, he represented a prisoner who was sentenced to death and appealed to the Supreme Court. In front of the justices, he forced the police to They used various methods to induce confessions and so on, and criticized them thoroughly.
In the end, the Federal Court ruled that before interrogation, the police must clearly tell the person being questioned that they have the right to remain silent, the right to a lawyer, etc.
It is similar to the Miranda warning in my previous life.
In this world, Richard is known as the Right to Silence.
Today, many local police stations in the empire are implementing Richard's right to silence.
Of course, areas with a strong autonomous atmosphere, such as the Donghai Metropolitan Area, still have their own set of legal standards. The rulings of the Federal Supreme Court can be used as a reference, but they are not mandatory.
But no matter what, this lawyer Richard can be regarded as the top criminal defense lawyer in the empire.
The yearbook also stated that the Imperial Bar Association, in view of lawyer Richard's outstanding contributions, is preparing to award him the title of senior barrister next year, which will be a one-year review period.
Richard is a sixth-degree barrister, and above that, there is the senior barrister, and then there is the royal barrister.
Not to mention the Queen's Counsel, there are only about ten of them alive. If you don't count the retired ones, I'm afraid they can be counted on five fingers.
As for the senior barrister, there is no such thing as assessment points. It is the title awarded by the Imperial Bar Association to the barrister who has made the most outstanding contributions.
There are only ten places each year. Overall, there are only a few dozen senior barristers in the entire empire.
It can be said that Richard is about to reach the pinnacle of the legal profession.
This Richard is obviously several levels above the barrister he has fought against before.
The Renault family has spent a lot of money. It’s not just money. To hire such a lawyer, it also requires connections and family pedigree.
Otherwise, I would be afraid of Richard and would be too lazy to take care of him.
