Huo Tingrui's pupils contracted. He instinctively took a few steps back when the box came crashing at him. However, he bumped into the wall behind him and failed to avoid it. The box instantly hit his shoulder.
Huo Tingrui had no idea what was in the box, but it was very heavy. The pain instantly spread throughout his body when it hit his shoulder, and his entire arm went numb.
Huo Tingrui's face instantly turned pale. The back of his head hit the wall when he took a step back, and he felt a little dizzy.
The man in the cap quickly approached and bent down to pick up the box. However, when he saw someone appear from the other end of the corridor, he had no choice but to give up and flee through the emergency exit.
The person who appeared was Huo Tingrui's assistant. He had been waiting in the lounge outside for a while and came over to look for Huo Tingrui when he saw that his boss had yet to come out.
His expression changed drastically as he ran over to support Huo Tingrui. He asked worriedly. "Brother Tingrui, are you alright? Are you okay? Where are you hurt? "
Huo Tingrui was still feeling a little dizzy. He took a minute to recover before he raised his head and waved his hand. "I'm fine."
The assistant was still worried when he saw how pale Huo Tingrui's face was. He glanced at the ground before he bent down to pick up his glasses and handed them to Huo Tingrui.
"I'll call my colleagues at the procuratorate and ask them to stop him," said the assistant as he took out his phone to make a call.
Huo Tingrui leaned against the wall without saying a word. One of his hands was pressing on his shoulder. The back of his hand was tensed up, and his veins were clearly visible.
After the call, the assistant could not help looking at the box on the ground when he saw Huo Tingrui like this.
The box had been smashed on the ground, and the seal was broken. The assistant squatted down and carefully flipped the box over. When he opened it, his face darkened when he saw what was inside.
There were only a few ordinary bricks inside, but they were stained with a large amount of blood. The bricks were dark red, and the strong smell of blood was nauseating.
The assistant almost could not control the churning in his stomach. He retched and quickly closed the box again.
As a lawyer, one would occasionally encounter a loser with an extreme personality. When the loser lost the case, the loser would direct all the hatred towards the lawyer and be threatened with their lives.
It wasn't that he hadn't been threatened before, but most of the time, he received anonymous letters or threatening couriers. It was the first time he had encountered such a situation where he committed a crime on the spot and in the courthouse.
Based on how arrogant they were, the mastermind must have a powerful background... The assistant suddenly felt a chill down his spine as he thought about today's lawsuit. He looked at Huo Tingrui worriedly. "Rui-Brother Rui, they must be warning us."
Huo Tingrui exhaled deeply. He glanced at the things on the ground and said in a deep voice, "I know."
"So what do we do now? This is only the first appeal, if we continue … "The assistant didn't dare to think about what kind of threats and threats he would encounter if he continued with this case, or even pay the price with his life.
Huo Tingrui closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his eyes were filled with coldness. "Some things can't be avoided after choosing to be a lawyer. If they don't care about the lives of the people, are we supposed to follow in their footsteps?"
The assistant looked at Huo Tingrui. "But you're in danger today."
Huo Tingrui sneered. "Why would I be afraid?"
The assistant lowered his head and smiled bitterly. But he was afraid.
