Chapter 16: Zhang Yingying (Part 1/2)

Zhang Yingying snapped her fingers: “Yo It's great that you understand.”

Zhang Yingying’s frivolous and casual manner was far different then the image Luo Nan had in his mind of a true lawyer. Luo Nan felt quite astonished that Xie Junping would dispatch a lawyer like her to help him.

Then Zhang Yingying described the sequence of events, further verifying this point of his:

“You were there when the accident occurred in the R&D district. You should know that the military and police have placed a great importance on the matter. The situation over there is quite chaotic, so they don’t have the energy to deal with you small fish and prawn. Yet, they still have to do screening, so they had to temporarily detain you on the transport ship…… Yep, this is an example of having some luck amidst disaster.”

Luo Nan stared at her mute: What luck?

Zhang Yingying blinked her eyes: “You’re luck is in not getting screwed by both sides! You’re still a minor. We were able to intervene in time thanks to the fact that you’re on this transport ship. Otherwise you absolutely wouldn’t be able to hide it from your family if it were down to the police and their strict procedures. Hehe.”

“......”

Luo Nan was left speechless. He had to admit that this young lawyer had hit the nail on the head with her words: If his aunt were to find out about this matter… He didn’t even dare to imagine the scene!

Zhang Yingying was finally satisfied when she saw Luo Nan change facial expressions. She spoke again: “It’s not just this. Do you know of the mess that just happened on the warship?”

“I was aware.” Luo Nan replied in quite the refreshing manner. The Shadow Mist pervaded the space even within the confinement room. Even an idiot could tell something was up.

“You have a decent amount of guts. I took a look at the monitoring recordings they sent me.All alone, smoke coming in from all sides, yet you were still able to be that calm. You continued to sketch and draw. Someone like you is quite rare kiddo. I like young people like you the most……”

Zhang Yingying reached out her hand and smacked Luo Nan on the shoulder hard, causing Luo Nan’s somewhat stiff muscles to completely relax.

She didn’t care for the subtleties of Luo Nan’s mood. Zhang Yingying continued speaking: “I arrived on this warship two hours ago. The reason why I wasn’t able to meet up with you until now was due to those government and military nutjobs. They’re scared that you guys are hiding problematic characters, so they forbid you contact with the outside world. But when this mess happened, they realized that isolating internal and external affairs is awfully stupid. So they started changing their tactics.”

Locking down the Darksider life form was a more difficult matter.

Luo Nan’s thoughts began to flow and circulate, moving somewhat absentmindedly. Zhang Yingying faked a sort of coughing sound: “So pay attention. Isolating internal and external matters when it comes to taking heavy precautions is really lazy of them. They inherently placed no importance to you small fishes and prawn. Though they are releasing you today, this doesn’t mean they’re giving up. It means they are saving their intentions to screen and search for later. They are much more serious now than they were in the beginning. You must be careful and cautious of the things you will soon say and do. I have the utmost confidence in you. But if you’re misunderstood by some certain people… now that would be very troublesome.”

Luo Nan nodded his head silently.

The door made a sound at this time. The captain who had just left had come back again: Lawyer Zhang, please finish your preparations.”

“Finally it’s my turn to go on stage!”

Zhang Yingying stood up straight. She wore high heels and was taller than the not-completely-matured Luo Nan by half a head. She looked quite grand and imposing, contrary to expectations. Only her excessively tender face was a pity, as well as her energetic smile; they were out of harmony with seriius and professional outfit.

She looked at Luo Nan’s taut face and blinked her eyes:

“You can’t be nervous…… Do you watch movies often?”

Luo Nan had yet to barely catch up with her line of thinking. He responded after a second: “Once in awhile.”

“Those big criminals in the movies. What do they say when they face the police?”

“......Please talk to my lawyer?”

“Bingo!”

Zhang Yingying vigorously smacked Luo Nan on the shoulder again. She took the lead and walked out the room.
