In the name of love

I was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. As soon as I turned on the news, it was changed to say that I died. It seemed that my wrist was cut, and the whole room was covered with blood.The news also reported that she called her sister before she died, Xiaolan, you..."

Yulu saw that Ji Lan's facial features sank all of a sudden. Ricky was also taken aback when he saw the two of them rushing back suddenly, but seeing Ji Lan's pale face, Ricky probably knew that something serious had happened, so he didn't dare to say anything more.

Yulu pulled a sofa chair from the side, and pulled it behind Ji Lan to let him sit down.The news continued to be broadcast, and the reporter reported in a sensational tone:

'It is rumored that the defendant is involved in many suspected cases of hotel sexual assault, usually by approaching young women on the Internet, and then defrauding the woman's trust with high gifts, and then asking the woman out.When the woman was unprepared, she was stunned from behind, and then pretended to go to a motel to get a room, tied up the victim and tortured her...'

"The defendant's family is well-off, and his father is a well-known big boss in the construction industry. In the past, the suspicion of sexual assault was settled with money. This time, the fire was finally overwhelmed. The victim thought that Xiao Kai was too deceitful and insisted on filing a lawsuit..."

Yulu saw Ji Lan sitting on the chair, her originally fair face was almost completely pale.But his expression was still calm, he held his chin with both hands, and stared at the TV screen, as if he was afraid of missing any details.

The camera turned around on the screen, and sure enough, the victim's sister appeared on it again.It's just that when Yulu saw her in court, she was dressed dignifiedly and looked calm, but now she looked like a concubine, wearing a black dress, and even her face turned pale, as if written on her face " The victim's family" is a few words.

"It's that lawyer!"

The sister said tearfully, "That lawyer is too much and has no conscience! Knowing that my sister is the victim, and knowing how pitiful my sister is, he still defamed her in court! He said she was a prostitute, She also said that she took drugs, we know that the rapist's family is rich, but it's too insulting to have this kind of lawyer come over!"

"Do you think your sister wanted to commit suicide because of what the lawyer said?"

The reporter whose face was not in the camera was holding a microphone and asked.

"That's right! Which good girl can stand being said that in public, and even say that she is a prostitute! And say that she... and say that she is catching men on the Internet, it is so deceiving! I will not forgive them! That lawyer is more than A rapist is even worse! A murderer!"

The reporter seemed to want to ask something, but a few patrols came up to the left, and someone vaguely said, "Sorry, we have to go back and take notes." Protecting my sister, I left, leaving behind a large group of noisy media reporters.

The news quickly moved on to the next, rumors of doping by Olympians.And Jize on the other end of the phone is still calling:

"Xiao Lan, did you tell Ming Nai? Are you not at home? Ming Nai just called Xiao Tao and said that you haven't come home yet. Where did you go in the middle of the night? I'm worried about you..."

"Sorry, Jize."

Yulu saw Ji Lan showing an extremely tired expression.

"I hung up first."

Said Ji Lan and pressed the hang up button.He also took the remote control to turn off the TV, and with a bang, the screen went off, and Yulu's living room was suddenly silent.

Yulu saw Ji Lan interlocking her fingers and resting her forehead on the edge of her palm, and there was no movement for a long time. Ricky retreated to the bedroom without knowing when, Yuli just likes his wit.

He walked over and put his big palm on Ji Lan's shoulder, but Ji Lan didn't move at all.

"It's not your fault." Yulu thought about the words, and said slowly: "People commit suicide every day in this city. There are thousands of reasons for a person to commit suicide. In addition, she is a poisonous insect, and poisonous insects always commit suicide. The high-risk group, that girl might want to die, it has nothing to do with your court performance."

Ji Lan didn't make a sound for a long time.

"When the court opened, she was in the back, in the segregated court for victims of sexual assault."

After listening to him for a long time, Yulu's voice was astringent, "I knew she would listen to everything I said, so I deliberately picked out information that would damage her reputation. I want her to understand that if the court activities continue It would do her no good to go on, so she would accept the settlement and instead testify in favor of my client."

Yulu hesitated a bit, but he still spoke.

"You're just doing a good job as a lawyer." He said: "And I believe that your information about the victim is not groundless, you just say that with definite evidence. In the end, we lawyers can only do this, according to the entrustment People defend our intelligence, and exaggerate the side that is beneficial to the client to the extreme in court, we are not judges, and we have no obligation to judge the truth."

Ji Lan still pressed the edge of her palm against her forehead, and it took Yulu a while to hear him speak.

"Actually, I know." Ji Lan's voice was hoarse.

"Ok?"

"I know... that person is a repeat offender." Ji Lan's voice was still very weak, and it sounded particularly disturbing at this moment, "When the father of the person involved asked me to defend his son, he mentioned to me However, he said that in the past few times he had settled with money, only this time the other party insisted on suing anyway, so he appointed me."

"But being a repeat offender in the past doesn't mean it's his fault this time! You should know best, don't you? There's always that kind of judge who uses the defendant's previous convictions as evidence, thinking that the defendant with a lot of previous convictions must be the one who did it this time. Yes. The job of our lawyers is to dispel this myth, you just do your job well, you don’t need to blame yourself for it, Ji Lan.”

"I'm just trying to win."

But Ji Lan intercepted all Yulu's consolation with one sentence.Yulu watched him lower his head, he had never heard Ji Lan speak in such a tone.

"I just want to win the lawsuit, because if I don't win the lawsuit, there is no point in doing all this. Seniors, I know that everything I do is to win this lawsuit and get my defendant acquitted. Get that rapist acquitted."

The room suddenly became quiet, Yulu's hand rested on Ji Lan's shoulder, but no matter what, he couldn't put any more weight on it.Until Ji Lan raised her head by herself, those black eyes, which were cleaner than anything else, looked straight ahead.

"Sorry." Seeing him pursing his lower lip, Yulu said, "Can you let me stay at Senior's house tonight?"

***

Yulu swiped the office key card and walked into his office.

When the female assistants saw Yulu, they showed a slightly surprised expression, and then nodded politely to say good morning.Yulu can also understand the assistant's reaction very well. As the co-signing lawyer of this firm, Yulu really rarely appears in the firm.

After all, this kind of collective working style is not suitable for him. When Yulu first started co-signing, he worked hard at night and day for a while, but he gave up after feeling the delicate atmosphere, especially the female assistants. After knowing that he didn't marry a wife.He dedicated his office to stacking files, and took all the work home to do.

That way at least he could be looking at Ricky's nice ass instead of the faces of a bunch of horny female assistants while he was working.

Yulu walked into the long-lost office, turned on the lights, and packed up two papers that were due to be held in court next week.Recently, following Ji Lan everywhere to investigate sexual assault cases, even Yulu almost forgot his profession.

In fact, the profession of lawyers is very boring most of the time.There are roughly three types of cooperation between lawyers. Most of the barristers who appear on TV are hosts or partner lawyers, that is, the real owners of a firm with funds and talents.

Younger lawyers become hired lawyers. This type of lawyer is not much different from ordinary office workers. They just do the work assigned by the boss and receive dead pay, and occasionally do chores assigned by the boss.

Using the position on the bed as an analogy, the host is like Tieyi, responsible for fucking people to death from above.And employment is their eternal zero, screaming and moaning and crying in the endless intercourse.

Lawyers like Yulu who have practiced for more than ten years and have no ability to start their own business often choose to become co-signing lawyers.That is, simply renting the office and the title of the firm, other than that, the income is self-sufficient.Just like friends with benefits in an online chat room, both parties take what they want, and when they are satisfied, they cross the river and tear down the bridge, and no one interferes with the other.

For Yulu, this is the most ideal form.In fact, he is quite lonely in his bones, and he doesn't like making friends very much, except making friends with beautiful boys.

While he was sorting out the files, an assistant sister came in and asked, "Why is Lawyer Yu free to enter the firm today? Isn't he very busy recently?"

Yulu responded, showing a smile for the women-only business.

"Oh, because there are materials here, I want to take them home to see how much."

The female assistant put her hands behind her back and secretly looked at Yulu's smile, "Did Lawyer Yu be very tired last night? His eyes are all dark. Work is important, and you should take care of your body."

Yulu glanced at the window pane of the office, and sure enough, he saw the face of a haggard 40-year-old uncle. He quickly looked away, "Well, um, something happened." Yulu shrugged and said.

Last night, Ji Lan really stayed at Yulu's house as promised.

Yulu was flattered but also very frightened. After all, this was the first time Ji Lan showed her vulnerable side in front of his senior. good.

And according to the development model of romance novels, at this time, as the male protagonist, Ji Lan should suddenly hug him unsuspectingly, and Ji Lan will stare at his handsome face, and then at a certain point, his emotions will suddenly break down. Grabbing the hem of his clothes, weeping until the pear blossoms bring the spring rain.

At this time, as the hero, he will generously lend his arm,
