Chapter 18 Laura Crawford

"I say we better have a strategy before we ring the doorbell."

Hilton Hotel, outside room 2703.

Louis and Laika stood side by side, making final preparations before ringing the doorbell.

"Strategy? Isn't it just to knock on the door and open the door, introduce yourself and sign a contract to fuck Norman?" Laika asked curiously.

Lewis smiled contemptuously: "You are still a little naive. Persuading clients to sign a contract is an art. Just talking about the case itself is useless."

"Then what should we do?"

"It's similar to interrogating a prisoner. One of us plays the good policeman and the other plays the bad policeman. We sing and sing together to make the client feel that without us helping him with the lawsuit, even a little guy on the street would be dragged to target practice."

"But...Laura is the plaintiff."

"The principle is the same."

"...I understand. Mrs. Qi accused Chang Wei of beating to death 13 members of the Qi family because she didn't hire the right lawyer. In the end, it was found out that Mrs. Qi poisoned the entire Qi family."

Lewis nodded with satisfaction: "Well... a child can be taught."

Laika snorted in her heart.

Hey...this poor country will be on the street sooner or later.

"...Then...who among us plays the good cop and who plays the bad cop?"

"Generally speaking, the handsome ones play the role of good police officers."

Louis stroked his face shamelessly, "So I should do it, but you might get stage fright if you play the bad policeman for the first time, so I'll play the bad guy."

"...thank you."

"Okay, are you ready?"

"of course."

Louis cleared his throat, put on a fierce look on his face, and pressed the doorbell.

After a while, the door opened slightly.

Before Louis could speak, a pistol suddenly stretched out quickly from the crack in the door and was pointed directly at his head.

"Woo woo woo woo woo woo~~~"

Damn it, what kind of start is this? ? ?

The person holding the gun behind the door was none other than Laura Crawford.

The hot figure, sexy lips, flowing ponytail, and cold eyes kept going back and forth between Louis and Laika.

Faced with this unique way of greeting, Laika was not too surprised. He could roughly guess why Laura would do this.

If there was anything that bothered him, it was that Laura was a little confused and confused with a new friend he had made on the council.

So fucking similar. ?

Louis' legs were shaking and he didn't even dare to speak.

After a while, Laura finally spoke.

"Each of you has 10 seconds to explain who you are, why you know I'm here, what you want from me, and..."

"Why don't I kill you with one shot?"

"My name is Louis Little. I am a lawyer at Pearson Spector. Our law firm has a conflict with Norman Osborne, so I hope to be your attorney."

"My name is Laika, and I'm Louis' assistant. The reason I know you live here is because the receptionist downstairs has an affair with me."

Laika's answer was succinct.

The more you talk, the more holes you get.

Laura thought for a while and felt that this little information was not enough to make a judgment on the authenticity of the two guys in front of her.

"Give each of you another 10 seconds to explain in detail how you and Norman Osborne came to terms with each other."

"Three hours ago, Norman tried to flirt with Laika's sister, but the two of us humiliated him and ran away. After leaving, he immediately slandered my law firm in the circle of friends. The most direct way to expose the rumor is to defeat him in court!"

"Louis was screwed by Norman because he stood up for my sister, so I angrily joined Louis' law firm and worked with Louis to screw with Norman."

Sounds... quite logical.

Laura analyzed in her mind.

Combined with the strategies these two guys just talked about outside the door, as well as Louis's face of unpretentious fear and stupidity.

It should be a real lawyer, not someone who came to kill her.

only...

This little fresh meat named Laika... always feels like there is something hidden.

"Your name is Laika, right? I have a question. You and Louis humiliated Norman together. Why is Louis' law firm being punished but you are fine?"

Laika was slightly taken aback.

Yes, why?

He really never thought about this problem.

"Well... maybe it's because my house is rented, my car is dilapidated, my girlfriend just broke up with me, and I was a skinny lawyer two hours ago. I have no bosses and no employees."

Laika spread his hands and said, "Even if Norman wants to mess with me... there's no way he can do it."

After hearing this, [-]% of the suspicion on Laura’s face disappeared.

There is falsehood among truth, and truth among falsehood. This is the highest level of deception.

"come in."

Laura opened the door and motioned for the two of them to come in.

Louis and Laika looked at each other.

Go in...

?

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

Laura put away her gun, "I will also tell you why I took out my gun to welcome you."

Louis was still frightened, so Laika had no choice but to push him in.

"coffee Tea?"

"How about...just whiskey..." Seeing that Louis couldn't calm down, Laika suggested.

Laura nodded and took the wine bottle and glass to the small coffee table.

"Sit down, let's take a sip first to calm down the shock." Laura said, while pouring wine for Lycra Lewis, "What I'm going to say next is even scarier than what I just said."

Seeing that Louis didn't dare to move his fingers, Laika smiled bitterly and said: "...You'd better say it first."

"Okay, the reason why I was so careful, checked in with a false identity, and carried a gun with me is because I also got into trouble with Norman."

Laura’s tone was very relaxed, “Do you know the council?”

Laika nodded with a pure face: "I know, although it is an underground killer organization, no one knows about it in the past two years."

Lewis also trembled and said: "The Council is gradually moving towards openness and legalization, and many law firms in New York are cooperating with it."

"Hmph, I'm on this organization's bounty list, and the bounty is 1000 million." Laura smiled contemptuously, "Norman really thinks highly of me."

Sure enough, Laura already knew through her own channels.

But it was obvious that she had underestimated the strength of the council, otherwise she would not have thought that she could avoid tracking by checking into the hotel with a false identity.

With a 'scratch', Lewis stood up suddenly.

"Sorry, I left early."

After all, he is just a lawyer. He has never encountered such a thing.

If Norman can offer 1000 million to kill Laura, he can also offer another 500 million to kill Laura's lawyer.

Compared with life, the survival of a law firm... is not that important.

In this regard, there is still a gap between him and the other two big bosses of the law firm, Jessica and Harvey.

Laura's face was calm: "Of course you can leave, but if you think you can avoid danger this way, you are underestimating that lunatic Norman."

"Then...what should we do now?" Lewis, a lawyer, actually asked Laura.

"It's very simple. Since we all share the same hatred, we should help each other. You help me win the lawsuit and I will protect your safety."
