Great Single Player of the Heavens

Chapter 40 The Lost Lawyer

For Lu Qi, the sweetheart's stay in Vinewood is just a short episode in his life.

The difference may be that there is an extra Vinewood star in the phone's address book...

After bidding farewell to the "trouble and talk" version of Elle Fanning, Lu Qi returned to his daily life again.

During these days in Los Santos, Lu Qi gradually discovered that this city is like a huge treasure house, with many unexpected things waiting for him to dig.

He also fell in love with the feeling of driving a convertible sports car and traveling around the orange city when the sun was setting.

However, I don't know if it's because he was born with a troublesome physique, or because of bad luck, he always encounters some unexpected situations...

. . .

In the evening, downtown Vinewood,

Lu Qi, who had already made an appointment with Franklin at the gym, happened to meet the rush hour when he was traveling.

In a long line, the black Belfort Sulei, which can reach a speed of 180 miles per hour, can only move forward bit by bit with the flow.

Bored, Lu Qi casually turned on the car radio.

With the sound of "rustling", Lu Qi quickly found a channel to listen to:

"... Dear listeners, for today's "Between the Movies", the show has invited the recently released and well-received movie "Three Months with My Dying Girlfriend" to star. Next, let us give warm applause and cheers, Welcome Lacey Jonas!!!"

When he heard the name "Lacey Jonas", he couldn't help but pause, and put it back on the steering wheel involuntarily.

"Lacey, since your new movie was released, it has been recognized by the public. Some film critics even said that in this movie, you gave yourself the best performance ever. What do you think?"

"Um... so it's like this..."

While listening to the conversation between Lacey and the radio host on the radio, Lu Qi tapped the steering wheel with his fingertips, waiting for the car to improve.

Finally, all the cars in front drove away, and when they came to the section of Weishaupt Square, Lu Qi was stopped by the red light again and continued to speed.

First the red light, the flow of people crossing the zebra crossing, then the red light turns yellow, and finally turns green...

Just when Lu Qi was thinking about whether to go to the cinema to watch this movie starring a certain person, while stepping on the gas pedal, when he was about to drive forward, a sudden change occurred!

At some point, a middle-aged man in a suit and holding a cardboard box stepped onto the zebra crossing like no one else!

And it happened to be in the way of his driving!

Perhaps frightened by the approach of the car, the middle-aged man's face changed drastically, and when he subconsciously let go, the cardboard box in his arms fell from mid-air.

In a blink of an eye, Lu Qi noticed the old man who ran the red light, he reacted quickly, and slammed on the brake with his left foot!

When the cardboard box fell to the ground with a "snap", the black Belfort Sulei paused and stopped in front of the man's legs less than 20 centimeters away.

Through the car window, Lu Qi saw the pale face of the middle-aged man, he couldn't help pulling up the handbrake, flashing the lights twice, and got out of the car.

The middle-aged man with a sad face also realized his situation.

I thought that if I ran a red light, I would be greeted by the other party with a sentence starting with F, but I didn't expect that what I waited for was a question full of concern:

"Sir, are you all right?"

Facing Lu Qi's black eyes, the man who had lingering fear in his heart was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head, and responded in a low voice:

"Uh...I'm not...I'm fine...I'm really sorry just now, I..."

"It's fine, I'll help you."

As soon as the voice fell, Lu Qi squatted down and took the initiative to help the other party pick up the documents and objects scattered on the ground.

Seeing Lu Qi's actions, the man quickly bent down and picked up the things together.

Pick up a document full of words,

Lu Qi took a casual glance and saw the "Hamlin Law Firm" logo on the upper left corner. He couldn't help but pause and said to the man:

"Sir, are you an attorney at Hamlin's?"

Hearing this, the man paused, then smiled wryly, "I used to be."

Looking at the other party's suit and various items in the cardboard box, Lu Qi nodded thoughtfully, "So..."

Collect things one after another and put them back into the cardboard box. The man holding the cardboard box showed a forced smile to Lu Qi:

"Thank you."

After all, the man was about to step away, but was stopped by Lu Qi:

"Sir, where are you going?"

Perhaps it was the goodwill emanating from Lu Qi's actions, like a ray of sunshine, shining into his heart, making his depression temporarily subside. The middle-aged man didn't think too much, and replied directly

"I plan to go to the subway station and take the subway home."

"If that's the case, let me give you a ride! Just as a little compensation for almost bumping into you just now, how about it?"

"This…"

Looking at Lu Qi's expensive sports car, the man showed hesitation, and finally accepted Lu Qi's kindness.

"Then I will trouble you..."

The two got into the car, and after the other party reported their destination, Lu Qi, who was driving, started talking to each other very naturally.

"By the way, by the way, my name is Alex."

"Oh, hello, my name is Daniel, Daniel Walker."

"Daniel, I don't mean to offend, I don't quite understand what you just said "used to be a lawyer at Hamlin Law Firm"..."

Hearing this, Daniel, who was a little relaxed, didn't care about Lu Qi's slightly out-of-bounds problem. He patted the cardboard box in his arms, and said with a helpless smile:

"As you can see, I just got fired."

"Oh, I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, if I hadn't been fired, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to sit in such a luxurious sports car... In a sense, today is also my lucky day..."

Looking at the brother co-pilot who was obviously having fun in the bitterness and laughing at himself, Lu Qi didn't know what to say, so he could only keep silent.

For a while, there was only the slight sound of the engine in the car, and an almost frozen silence.

The car continued to drive forward, and Lu Qi asked again at this time:

"Then what are you going to do next?"

Reaching out and rubbing his swollen temples, Daniel said in a slightly tired tone:

"I don't know, maybe I'll be a public defender for a while, and then I'll see if there are other law firms that want me."

"However, I don't think other firms will want a lawyer who is absent from the trial..."

Hearing Daniel's slightly sad self-mockery, Lu Qi couldn't help but raise his brows, knowing it in his heart.

Perhaps, that's why Daniel was fired by Hamlin...

Lu Qi has heard of the name of Hamlin Law Firm, not only because it is the largest law firm in Los Santos, but also because of its special elimination mechanism.

Where there are people, there will be competition.

Not to mention the largest law firm in Los Santos.

In every competition, the loser has only one end:

Get kicked out of the office!

Because only the better side is eligible to stay.

However, even though the competition is so fierce and the failure is so cruel, Hamlin is still a holy land that countless lawyers yearn for.

Entering Hamlin means that you become a member of the strongest team in the legal field!

While the two were thinking about each other, the car unknowingly arrived at its destination - a single-family house in South Los Santos.

"This is it..."

Daniel, who pushed open the car door and got out of the car, seemed to have thought of something, took out a business card from the cardboard box, passed it to Lu Qi through the car window.

"Hey Alex, thanks for taking me home. Here's my business card, feel free to contact me if you need legal advice or questions. I'll give you a discount..."

"Haha, I remember."

Taking the business card and putting it in the pocket of the sports coat, Lu Qi watched as the other party carried the cardboard box and walked to the front of the house before starting the engine again and driving away at a high speed...
