Huo Tingrui's pupils shrank. When the box hit him, he instinctively took a few steps back, but bumped into the wall behind him. He didn't avoid it, and was hit by the box on the shoulder instantly.
I don't know what was in the box, it was very heavy, and when it hit the shoulder, the pain instantly spread throughout the whole body, and the whole arm was even numb from the pain in an instant.
Huo Tingrui's face turned pale instantly, and the back of his head hit the wall when he backed up, making him a little dizzy.
Seeing this, the man in the peaked cap approached quickly, bent over to pick up the box on the ground before making a move, but when he saw someone appearing from the other side of the corridor from the corner of his eye, he had no choice but to give up, sprinted back to the security door, and slipped away.
The person who appeared was Huo Tingrui's assistant. He waited in the outside lounge for a while, and when he saw that the boss hadn't come out, he came to look for him.
With a drastic change in his complexion, he rushed over, supported Huo Tingrui, and asked worriedly: "Brother Rui, how are you? Are you all right? Where are you hurt?"
Huo Tingrui's head was still a little dizzy. After he calmed down for a minute, he raised his head, raised his hand and waved, and said softly, "it's okay."
The assistant saw that his face was frighteningly pale, but his worry still hadn't receded. He glanced at the ground, then hurriedly bent over to pick up the glasses that fell on the ground, and handed them to Huo Tingrui to put them on.
"I called my colleagues in the procuratorate here and asked them to send someone to stop that person." The assistant said as he quickly took out his mobile phone to make a call.
Huo Tingrui leaned against the wall and didn't speak. He kept pressing his shoulder with one hand. The back of his hand was a little tight, and the blue blood vessels were clearly visible.
After the assistant made the phone call, seeing him like this, he couldn't help but look at the box on the ground again.
Because the box had just hit the ground, the seal had been broken. The assistant squatted down and carefully turned the box over. When he opened it and saw what was inside, his expression suddenly became very heavy.
There were only a few ordinary bricks inside, but they were soaked in a lot of blood. The bricks were dark red and the strong smell of blood made people sick.
The assistant almost couldn't control the churning in his stomach, retched twice, and quickly put the box back on.
In the profession of lawyer, occasionally you will encounter a loser with extreme personality. If you are unbalanced in your heart, you will put all your hatred on the lawyer, and you will be intimidated and threatened with your life.
It's not that I haven't encountered threats before, but most of them received anonymous letters or threatening couriers. It's the first time I encountered a situation like today's on-site murder, and it was still in the court.
With such an arrogant approach, it can be imagined that the background of the people behind this scene is definitely not low... The assistant suddenly felt a chill down his spine when he thought about today's lawsuit. He looked at Huo Tingrui with obvious worry in his eyes: "Rui, brother Rui, they must be here Warn us."
Huo Tingrui let out a bad breath, glanced at the things on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "I know."
"Then what are we going to do now? This is just the first case of the complaint, if we continue..." The assistant didn't dare to think about the threats and intimidation he would encounter again if he continued the case, or even pay the price of his life.
Huo Tingrui closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the eyes under the lens were full of cold frost, "I chose the profession of lawyers, and some things are unavoidable. They don't take the lives of the people as their lives. Don't we have to?" Follow them in the same ranks?"
The assistant looked at Huo Tingrui, "but it's dangerous for you to be like this today."
Huo Tingrui sneered, "I'm afraid?"
The assistant lowered his head and suppressed a wry smile, but he would be afraid.
