38: Just tell me if you can see me!

Zhou Yun had finished speaking and was currently taking a tactical sip of water.

At this moment, the netizens in the live stream, who had been sending various bullet comments, all fell silent.

Everyone wanted to complain, but they didn't know how, mainly because Zhou Yun's solution was a bit… truly difficult to evaluate.

Zhou Xinyao also felt stifled and hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say to her phone.

Finally, a netizen sent a bullet comment: "Um, Lawyer Zhou Yun, isn't this approach a bit inappropriate? To directly sue…"

Lawyer Zhou Yun heard this, put down his water glass. Although his camera was on, it could only capture his hand.

"How is it inappropriate? I think it's quite good. This brother on the call is definitely not a simp. His only goal is to meet his ex-girlfriend again and ask her a few questions in person."

"You don't need to worry about anything else. Just tell me if my method allows you to meet her!"

"Right? We need to be reasonable when we speak. Ah, although that woman will probably hate him immensely, he will still be able to meet her. As long as they can meet, then there's no problem."

The netizens were immediately speechless because it was indeed true.

Your demand is this, and he has achieved your demand through a series of actions, so what else can you say?

Lawyer Zhou Yun continued, "How about it, brother? You don't have any thoughts of jumping into the river now, do you? Alright, if you do, come find me tomorrow. This case isn't difficult."

Wang Shenggang's voice rang out, "Okay, okay, Lawyer Zhou. I'll go find you tomorrow. I'm in Jinghai, and I definitely don't have any thoughts of jumping into the river anymore."

Hearing this, other netizens who had different ideas were even more speechless, because this Lawyer Zhou not only provided a solution but also talked someone out of suicide.

You know, usually, if you encounter someone who wants to commit suicide, Police Officer would need to persuade him for a long time, and many times, they would even launch a surprise attack while talking, directly taking him down.

But this time, this Zhou Lawyer really relied on just his words!

Zhou Xinyao finally sent a bullet comment, exclaiming, "There's only a wrong name, never a wrong nickname!"

The nickname "Ghost Talent Lawyer" really wasn't wrong; he was too amazing.

Lawyer Zhou Yun took another sip of water and said, "Alright then, next one!"

It was pretty much the same every night. Sometimes, the audience would ask him some inexplicable questions, but he could always handle them with his rich experience.

This was actually the simplest application of lawyer's rhetorical skills.

Because it was in front of many people in the live stream, and the other party could also see the bullet comments, he directly started by saying the other party was a simp.

The purpose was to make the other party deny it, and then directly distill that extremely complex psychological state of the other party into a simple demand that could be achieved through legal means.

For Wang Shenggang, it was "meeting the other party again."

Only in this way would all his attention be diverted.

Therefore, when saying the phrase "you are a simp," the tone should carry a feeling of "brother, you're kidding me."

Of course, if he encountered someone who was disheartened and directly admitted to being a simp, then it would be a different set of rhetoric.

Empathize with the other party, respect their feelings, then change the topic: it's useless to be disheartened now, why not sue the other party to meet them?

First, stabilize the other party's emotional state, then use reverse psychology, saying, "Your love can't even withstand a lawsuit?"

If you don't even dare to sue, how can you claim to love her?

Just like handling complex cases, it's about making steady progress.

The live stream ended at night, and Zhou Yun lay down to sleep, while his live stream was directly clipped and shared by many netizens.

After all, saving someone live, and in such an "unconventional" way, and even getting himself a case, such a plot was truly captivating.

The live stream clips attracted even more netizens after they were posted.

"This lawyer… can he really play like this? I'm shocked, seriously!"

"A ghost talent, truly a ghost talent. That line, 'If you don't even dare to sue, how can you claim to love her,' really stunned me. I suggest this person get checked to see if he has mental issues."

"Damn it, even as a girl, I want to follow this lawyer! His mouth is just too good!"

In this atmosphere, some netizens also expressed doubts, questioning whether this was a performance arranged by the streamer himself.

However, other netizens quickly posted police reports and receipts.

"I was watching the live stream at the time. That place was in Jinghai. I called the police, and later the Police Comrade called me back and said they had found the person."

"However, the other party no longer had suicidal thoughts and had not caused any public order problems, so they were only given a verbal warning."

All these things were shown, and then finally no one spoke ill of him anymore.

Moreover, other netizens were also saying, "You'd better question him, because Zhou Yun will definitely come out and slap you in the face later."

This person is sly and likes to watch you question him for a while before coming out to prove you wrong.

Why say that? Because in his last video, Zhou Yun specifically put screenshots of those previous comments that questioned him at the end…

And you know what, this behavior made many netizens agree. When it comes to slapping someone in the face, it should be direct. Whoever questioned him, just directly slap his face.

Amidst everyone's heated discussions, time came to the next day.

At nine in the morning, a young man in his twenties appeared at Tianhe Law Firm.

Xia Nianqin at the front desk was already used to these clients who came to see Lawyer Zhou Yun.

And another founding partner of the law firm had also said that Lawyer Zhou Yun's case sources were already quite numerous, and his reputation had been established, so the firm's performance could not be affected by the problems of certain people.

This "certain people" naturally referred to Jiang Qiming.

This involved the struggle among the law firm's leaders, so Xia Nianqin didn't dare to say anything; she just needed to do her job well.

The young man was Wang Shenggang, who, with trepidation, followed Xia Nianqin to a young man who looked much younger than himself.

"Mr. Wang, this is Lawyer Zhou Yun of our firm."

Lawyer Zhou Yun had already stood up and extended his hand, smiling, "Mr. Wang Shenggang? I am Zhou Yun. Please, have a seat."

"We've pretty much discussed your situation last night. Now, you just need to recall carefully how much money you transferred to the other party and how many things you bought."

"Preferably with records."

Lawyer Zhou Yun could freely choose which case to use for his task. Currently, this case was somewhat interesting, but for the time being, it wasn't ideal.

Because it also involved an issue of enforcement and the ultimate satisfaction of the client.

Anyone who has been involved in a lawsuit knows that many times, after the first and second instances are completed, the long march has only just begun; enforcement is truly too difficult.

Even if you win the lawsuit, if it can't be enforced, what's the point of winning the lawsuit?

A judgment won after spending a lot of money is probably only slightly better than waste paper.

So, Lawyer Zhou Yun temporarily only planned to casually handle this case.

Wang Shenggang began to look through the records, and Lawyer Zhou Yun continued, "Also, to sue the other party, you need their name, contact information, ID number, address, and so on."

Many people get stuck at this step when filing a lawsuit.

Although Supreme Peoples Court specifically responded to this in 2019, which was the "Reply on Whether to Provide Defendant's ID Information for Filing a Case."

This reply explicitly stated that in the absence of an ID number, as long as accurate information such as the defendant's name and residence can be provided, sufficient to distinguish the defendant from others, it can be considered as having a "clear defendant."

But how to put it, as we said before, every Court has its own procedural law.

The situation in this regard varies across the country. In some places, a name and address are enough to file a case, while in others, an ID number is mandatory.

Some places have very high requirements for the address, demanding a detailed address.

This also leads many netizens to discover when filing lawsuits, "Hey, why is this different from what's said online? Online lawyers say you don't need this to file a case, so why won't they file it here?"

This is where the problem lies. Court filing is a very mysterious thing. Sometimes it's due to internal regulations, and sometimes it might just be intentionally holding you up.

For example, at the end of each year, due to internal Court assessments, it is the most difficult time to file a case, and this is the same across the country.

But it's impossible to directly tell you that we won't file your case here.

What to do? They will use various reasons to block you. Want an explanation? They have plenty of reasons; there are so many laws, it's easy to find a reason.

Wang Shenggang was a bit dumbfounded.

"Lawyer Zhou, do… do I need so much? I don't know her ID number. Her address, she's already moved. I went to look, and she doesn't live there anymore. I only know her name and contact information."

Lawyer Zhou Yun smiled upon hearing this and said, "Look at you, you don't even count as a qualified simp. A qualified simp would at least know these things."

"Alright, how did you transfer money to her before? WeChat, right? That's relatively easy to handle. I'll help you look it up."

Wang Shenggang nodded quickly. He had never sued before, and now he realized that suing was truly troublesome.

No wonder there's a profession like lawyers.

He found all the transfer records and purchase records, and then Lawyer Zhou Yun helped secure the evidence.

"You two dated for a year? You transferred over fifty thousand to her? You really are… and you even bought her a gold bracelet and a gold necklace, brother, what do you do?"

Lawyer Zhou Yun couldn't help but admire him; this old brother was truly something else.

Wang Shenggang heard this and said, "I, I write novels online. I've made a little money in the past two years…"

Lawyer Zhou Yun smiled and said, "You just squander money like that after earning it, huh? Alright, leave these things here for now. I'll go prepare the contract. Your case is relatively complex, and there's a lot to investigate."

"The total amount is roughly a little over eighty thousand. I'll still charge six thousand. This price isn't high. You can inquire at other law firms; no one will charge less for a case like yours."

Wang Shenggang immediately nodded, "No problem, Lawyer Zhou, I trust you completely!"

His only thought now was to meet the other party again and ask her why she was so heartless!
