Chapter 275: The lawyers!!!
The next day, Chi Lian who had been out past midnight slept in lazily like a pig. No matter how many times her mother knocked on her door, complained and threatened to give her a beating, she would not be moved.
She woke up at eleven, showered, grabbed a snack and off to the police station she went followed by the large army of lawyers which she had stated so many times was unnecessary but her brother, parents and Muyang had insisted upon hiring.
At the police station, even the officer who was simply questioning her was flabbergasted. This was not a criminal trial or questioning so why had she come in with five lawyers from five different law firms in the capital.
These were not just any lawyers; they were top lawyers and legal experts in criminal law, hiring one of them even for an hour cost up to two hundred thousand Yuan. Just how well connected was this Miss Chi? These lawyers were all dressed expensively in black suits with shiny shoes and spotless black briefcases. One would think they were on their way to a shady mafia meeting.
When Chi Lian noticed that the officer was looking more and more nervous with each second that passed, she decided to do him a favor and open her mouth first.
"I was told to come in so that you could speak to me about my car which was involved in an accident." She said with a polite smile on her face.
The officer nervously rummaged through paper work on his desk and it took a tumble.
"Sorry, sorry," he apologized clumsily as he picked it up. His fellow detectives in the station looked at him pitifully and they quickly looked away. None of them wanted to be in his shoes.
In such cases, the person being questioned rarely said a word; it was always the lawyers who talked and they were cagey and hostile. And if you said one wrong thing and offended the wrong person, you would be scolded by your superiors.
