Too Bad I Take Things Seriously

"Ding! Host has received an invitation letter, triggering a new task!"

Suddenly.

The voice of the system echoed in his mind.

The system, which hadn’t refreshed for a long time, unexpectedly triggered on its own.

"Ding! Please participate in this industry exchange conference and achieve first place in the mock trial session."

"Ding! Due to the special nature of this task, you will receive a fixed reward of: 3000 Wish Value points if you complete the task."

"Please note: The difficulty of this task is quite high, proceed with caution."

Listening to the system’s voice.

Qin Mu was somewhat stunned and couldn’t help but look at the task requirements floating in the void.

This system task...

Is completely different from before.

Previously, the tasks were always a choice of three, offering a lot of freedom.

But this task...

Directly requires him to achieve first place in the mock trial session of the industry exchange conference, and it reminds him of the high difficulty, asking him to proceed carefully.

"Strange."

Qin Mu furrowed his brow.

But his gaze quickly shifted to the last line, the reward for completing the system task.

It’s actually 3000 Wish Value points!

You have to know.

With just 1000 Wish Value points, you can make a wish, satisfying any wish based on reality.

Wish Value points...

Can fulfill three wishes.

Have to say.

This is more tempting to him than a hundred million!

"Ding! Host, please make a decision promptly, confirm if you accept this task!"

Seeing Qin Mu hesitated to make a decision, the system reminded him once more.

"Accept."

Qin Mu took a deep breath and chose to accept.

He already realized.

The more tasks he completes, the rarer future tasks become.

The refresh rate keeps getting lower.

Tasks are hard to come by.

Moreover...

With 3000 Wish Value points right in front of him, he could not miss it.

"However... the system reminds me that this task is very difficult, urging me to proceed with caution."

Afterwards.

Qin Mu stared at the system’s reminder, deep in thought.

The system’s reminder, along with the task reward, made him have to be careful.

Clearly.

This task is not just high in difficulty.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t reward 3000 Wish Value points at once.

According to what netizens say.

This time’s National Lawyer Industry Exchange Conference will gather lawyers from all over the country, all of them top-tier.

Among them, there are some top-notch experts.

If he wants to get first place, he must defeat these top lawyers.

"I’m just a late starter, and although I can grasp the legal codes with my photographic memory, to defeat the nation’s lawyers... it’s still far from enough."

Qin Mu squinted his eyes, his expression growing heavier.

He has self-awareness.

Knowing his own capabilities.

In Jin City.

He may have made significant achievements, but that’s no reason for him to get complacent.

Facing the nation’s lawyers...

He’s really not on the same level.

"There’s still a month until the National Lawyer Industry Conference, I must improve myself quickly during this time and make up for my shortcomings."

Qin Mu took a deep breath, deciding to set a plan for himself.

Strive for...

In a month’s time, to compensate for all his shortcomings in every aspect.

Although he is now familiar with the criminal, civil, contract law, corporate law, economic law, and other legal fields, there are still some extremely niche areas he doesn’t understand well.

To defeat those strong opponents...

He must seize this opportunity to memorize all the existing laws in the country.

"Hope... there’s still enough time."

Thinking of this.

Qin Mu felt endless motivation surging from within and went straight back to the office.

Begun intensely studying each industry’s laws and regulations.

...

At the same time.

Shanghai.

Office of the National Lawyer Industry Association.

"Old Huang, I just looked at the invitation list for this conference, why is there... an intern lawyer on it?"

Rao Zhengde threw a freshly sorted list onto the desk.

His expression was slightly displeased.

As the vice president of the Lawyer Industry Association.

When verifying the list of invitees for the conference a month later, he discovered something extremely absurd.

He even...

Suspected that Huang Qinglin might have taken bribes.

"We’ve organized industry conferences for so many years, when have we ever invited an intern lawyer? What qualifications does he have to participate in a national industry exchange conference?"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, staring straight at Huang Qinglin in front of him.

Huang Qinglin, sitting in the chair, watching the furious Rao Zhengde, remained completely unflustered.

Slightly smiled.

Unhurriedly said, "Old Rao, don’t get excited. I broke the rules to add him to the list for a reason."

"Take a look at Qin Mu’s personal résumé first."

Then.

He clicked on the computer in front of him and opened an electronic file.

These files...

are all records of registered top lawyers nationwide, including the cases they’ve handled and their achievements.

Soon.

He found Qin Mu’s personal résumé in them and signaled Rao Zhengde to come over and look.

Rao Zhengde sneered dismissively: "An intern lawyer, how many cases could he have handled?"

"Take a look first."

Huang Qinglin smiled faintly.

Rao Zhengde frowned, skeptically approaching the computer.

The result...

was that Qin Mu’s résumé was completely different from what he imagined.

Not just one or two cases.

But a dense array of cases.

He almost felt a bout of trypophobia coming on.

"He... he’s an intern lawyer, how did he come across so many cases?"

He swallowed, asking in disbelief.

Other top lawyers’ personal experiences...

were not as complex as Qin Mu’s résumé.

Huang Qinglin smiled and explained, "These cases... were not represented by Qin Mu, but they are indeed related to him."

To be precise.

Most of the cases above were ones Qin Mu fought before he obtained his lawyer’s license.

He was the plaintiff in all of them.

So he was involved in these trials and used the law to put all the defendants behind bars.

Not a single one escaped!

The sentences for the defendants ranged from minimal probation to a maximum of twenty-five years imprisonment.

The most outrageous thing is...

many of these were cases of moral coercion, common incidents in daily life.

Which usually leave many people at a loss.

Yet Qin Mu, with thunderous means, put them all away.

After listening to Huang Qinglin’s account, Rao Zhengde instinctively swallowed again.

He couldn’t help but pick up the mouse.

And started scrolling through Qin Mu’s cases.

"Delivery guys, shady intermediaries, phone scammers, high-altitude litterers, kids playing ball?"

Looking at these related cases, he felt his scalp tingle.

If they were all criminal cases, it wouldn’t be so bad.

But instead...

Qin Mu turned those civil incidents into criminal cases as well.

And has never lost a case.

In addition.

He sued the entire internet twice, first suing 3,000 defendants, then 15,000 defendants.

It shook the entire online community.

"So... the one who filed the online defamation lawsuit was him?"

Rao Zhengde swallowed again, muttering to himself.

A while ago.

The lawsuit against the entire internet was very sensational, and he had heard about it.

This case...

was not difficult to handle, not involving professional legal knowledge.

But...

99.9% of the lawyers nationwide couldn’t do such a thing.

One reason is they aren’t as meticulous as Qin Mu.

Another is they aren’t as wealthy as Qin Mu.

To sue 15,000 defendants would cost at least a billion in litigation fees!

"A few days ago, several criminal cases were tried in Jin City, have you heard?"

While Rao Zhengde was shocked into silence, Huang Qinglin asked softly.

"I’ve heard."

Rao Zhengde returned to his senses, nodding.

This case...

was equally as sensational.

Thinking about it, he suddenly came to his senses: "Wait, you’re not saying... this case was also his doing?"

Huang Qinglin nodded.

Rao Zhengde: "..."

It all has something to do with Qin Mu, goddammit.

As the vice president.

He planned to compile this series of cases into teaching materials, specifically explaining the criminal charges involved.

For law students and newly practicing lawyers to learn from.

After all...

This series of cases featured more than ninety different criminal charges.

Using it as a negative example is absolutely fitting.

"Now, you shouldn’t doubt Qin Mu’s qualifications anymore, right?"

Huang Qinglin looked at Rao Zhengde with a smile, suddenly asking.

Rao Zhengde blushed.

If Qin Mu isn’t qualified...

then there truly aren’t many in the country who are.

They established criteria for the industry conference to primarily select those top-tier lawyers.

And Qin Mu...

clearly meets these criteria entirely.

"Based on this résumé, Qin Mu’s expertise seems to lie in criminal law."

He looked at the data, resting his chin in his hand as he analyzed.
