The Romance Extras Turned Out to Be a Yuri Story - Chapter 67.2
A Disturbing Revelation
Shuhe went back and started reading the outline the other party had sent.
After reading it, her mouth twitched. The modifications were simply outrageous. Aside from reusing the names, the content was vastly different from her novel.
Shuhe gave up for a while, then forced herself to start writing the “dog-licking” literature despite feeling disgusted.
In most stories, the “dog-licker” ends up with nothing, but in this work, the “dog-licker” ends up having everything.
After being back for a few days, Lin Luoluo wanted to see her parents. She hesitated, then typed a line on the computer while Shuhe was resting.
[Can you go to a place?]
Shuhe: “What place?”
Lin Luoluo gave the address.
Shuhe said, “Oh.”
“That area has been demolished. I heard the government compensated several hundred million. What are you going there for?”
Lin Luoluo was stunned.
Demolished? How could that be? Her family’s house had only been bought a few years ago. How could it be demolished?
Seeing that she didn’t reply, Shuhe scratched her head and said, “If you want to go, I’ll go with you.”
Lin Luoluo slowly typed a [Good].
Shuhe took the subway and transferred slowly. When they arrived, the entire area was indeed demolished, and the buildings under construction were all unfamiliar to Lin Luoluo.
She panicked and asked the System: [How could this be? Didn’t you say the time ratio between the novel world and the real world is 1:10? Why is there a change here?]
System: [Did I ever say this was your world?]
[You said ‘go home’!] Lin Luoluo broke down.
System: [I am someone else’s System, so naturally, I’m returning to someone else’s home. You can only go back once you complete the task.]
She had been tricked.
In her world, there was no TV series called The Conglomerate Marriage. It was Sang Jing’s system.
They hadn’t switched back.
Lin Luoluo crouched down, clutching her head.
Shuhe found an internet café and typed on the computer: [Can I go back now?]
She had wandered around here for a long time, unsure what the other party wanted.
After a long time, Lin Luoluo replied listlessly: [Go back.]
No wonder she felt the second female lead was suspicious in every way. Although the face was identical to hers, upon closer inspection, there were still some subtle differences. The other person exuded an air of being pampered, while she had a very faint scar on her temple from a childhood tumble.
So, this was Sang Jing’s world, and she and Sang Jing were people from two different worlds.
Lin Luoluo squatted down in distress, hugging herself. She missed home terribly.
Zhang Qiu’s Interview
At the same time, the unconscious Lin Luoluo in the room was finally discovered.
Lin Xiangdong rushed in, carried her to the bed, and yelled excitedly at the auntie who found her: “Call an ambulance!”
The ambulance drove away from the Lin family home and arrived at the hospital. The doctor said helplessly, “Hypersomnia. We can only wait for the patient to wake up.”
…
Zhang Qiu looked at her phone. Two days had passed, and Lin Luoluo hadn’t contacted her.
A faint sense of unease settled in her heart. The director called out to her.
“It’ll be your turn to interview soon. Just follow the normal interview process, and don’t stare at the camera.”
Zhang Qiu nodded.
The previous interviewee was Hu Tao.
Hu Tao came out looking a bit dejected. There were too many cameras in the interview room. Although she was mentally prepared, facing the many cameras and interviewers, she kept wanting to perform better. Perhaps her mind was too cluttered, causing her to become more constrained.
Zhang Qiu took a deep breath and cleared her mind of distractions.
Now wasn’t the time to think about her own affairs. This was her first time meeting people from the law firm. She just needed to perform normally.
Zhang Qiu told herself not to be nervous, to treat it just like any other interview.
She knocked on the door, and the interviewers told her to enter.
She walked in and politely closed the door. She quickly surveyed the room and saw three interviewers sitting there, all dressed in suits. Two were male, and one was female. The one sitting in the middle was a serious-looking woman. She nodded slightly at Zhang Qiu and said, “Please sit.”
Zhang Qiu stepped forward, handed over her resume, and sat on the only chair available.
The three of them looked down to review the resume. After reading it, they looked up and asked, “You are a senior student majoring in economics at Longhai University. Why did you choose to switch to the legal profession? Do you think your major is advantageous in the legal profession? And, your academic background is not particularly advantageous here.”
The interviewer pointed it out directly, and her words were sharp.
Zhang Qiu slightly lifted her chin, straightened her shoulders, and placed her hands politely on her lap as she answered: “**Hello, interviewers. My name is Zhang Qiu, and I study economics at Longhai University. Why did I choose the legal profession? Because I believe that doctors heal the wounded and save lives, and lawyers clarify the innocent and guilty. Society needs law, and the people need lawyers. A lawyer is the voice of human dignity.”
“As for my major, I believe it will play a significant role in economic cases. Economics is a macroscopic model, and people are microscopic individuals. I want to use my expertise to promote the establishment of financial cases. Many people are still victims of economic fraud, and the path to legal education is long and arduous.”
“So, you chose to be a lawyer to do public good?” The female lawyer sneered, “Then what should you do when you have to defend an economic fraud criminal with a plea of not guilty?”
Zhang Qiu was clearly stumped and paused for a moment.
The male lawyer next to her laughed, “This young lady has great ideals.”
Zhang Qiu said, “I will help him defend.”
“I will abide by the Constitution and the law, adhere to the professional ethics and discipline of lawyers, and will not refuse defense or representation without cause.”
“Everyone has the right to uphold the dignity of the law. The law is not made for an individual, but for every person.”
Zhang Qiu was the first interviewee after entering to say she would defend a guilty person. The previous few all said they would refuse, but everyone is equal before the law. The lawyer’s job is to represent, not to stand in for, and everyone has the right to a not-guilty defense. This is also a legal tenet that respects human rights.
Everyone present nodded in satisfaction, and even the strict female lawyer’s expression softened.
“I have no more questions. You may leave.”
After leaving, Zhang Qiu leaned against the wall and let out a sigh of relief.
Her statement just now was not to grab attention; it was genuinely what she thought.
In the lower strata of society, Zhang Qiu had encountered all sorts of people. Some were forced onto the wrong path just to make a living. Seeing this often, Zhang Qiu gradually developed the idea of representing these people in court. However, she knew nothing about law. Facing the gazes of those who thought she, as a university student, must know everything, Zhang Qiu always felt helpless. She didn’t know anything; she had to look up information on the spot, yet she would receive so much gratitude.
Now, she was finally on this path. One day, she would be able to help these people.
