In the name of love

The frustration in Dao Jilan's heart.

Fortunately, the judge did not accept Ye Chang's speech and dismissed it as emotional disorder, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Yulu drove here by himself today, and when he was on the road to the parking lot, his phone rang again. Yulu thought it might be Sam again, and impatiently planned to turn off the phone, only to find out that it was Ji Lan when he picked it up.

"Ji Lan?" Yulu hurriedly pressed the call button. After the court session, Ji Lan contacted him a few times, but they were all business exchanges.

Regarding the matter that Ji Lan suddenly asked him to kiss him that day, although Yuli was full of "??", firstly, the impact of Sam's arrival was too great for him, and secondly, the court failed. In this case, the defense was on the verge of losing the case. In the case of rolling and falling down at any time, Yulu was really too embarrassed to bring up such a private matter in front of Ji Lan.

"Senior." Ji Lan replied immediately, "Sorry for calling you suddenly, are you free now?"

Yulu glanced at his sweatshirt soaked in sweat, "Uh, if you're free, you're free, but in the end it's..."

"I got the original file of the surveillance video from the activity center. I'm in the coffee shop on X Street. I have something to discuss with senior. Can senior come over?"

Of course Yulu has no reason to refuse, and it is also good for him to keep himself busy with something, it can make him temporarily forget everything about that man.

As soon as he walked into the coffee shop, he saw Ji Lan sitting by the window, waving to him as soon as he saw him.Yulu saw that he was wearing an elegant light blue suit, and his hair was neatly combed like a waiter in a French restaurant.When the waitress brought the coffee, she smiled at Ji Lan with her cleavage.

Ji Lan's cold didn't seem to be healed yet, Yulu saw that he was still wearing a mask, and slowly took it off when he saw him.

"Senior, there is some bad news." Yulu heard Ji Lan say before his butt was hot.

Yulu couldn't help smiling wryly, "Tell me, I don't know what news is bad now."

"The court went to check the surveillance video footage of the activity center, but except for the footage after three o'clock, the rest of the records are gone."

"Disappeared?" Yulu was taken aback.

"Yes, according to the activity center, at that time the police only transferred the footage after three o'clock because the little boy went into the toilet after four o'clock. The prosecution felt that two hours earlier was enough. The surveillance video The image file is very large, and it is very troublesome to transfer the file from the closed-recording camera, I think it is because of this that we did not make more recordings at that time."

Ji Lan said seriously.

"Besides, the rain started to fall harder and harder at nearly three o'clock. The prosecution probably felt that it was unlikely that someone hid in the toilet before that, and did not ask for more searches, but I think it is more likely that they did not think so many."

"That's why there are so many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases..."

Yulu couldn't help but sighed with emotion, and asked again: "The disappearance means? Is it the negligence of the activity center?"

"Surveillance video files already have an automatic overlay function. Generally, roadside closed-record cameras cover every half a month, and those with a larger capacity like this one month. Now it is September, and the video files on July [-]th It no longer exists anyway.”

Yulu let out a sigh of regret, but Ji Lan did not look particularly depressed. Yulu saw him take out a laptop from his briefcase. This person was like a convenience store, open 24 hours a day, all year round. Work.

Seeing his still pale face, Yulu couldn't help being concerned, "Is your cold... getting better?"

Ji Lan stared at the computer in front of him intently, and shook his head calmly, "It's nothing serious, let senior worry about it." He said, and turned the laptop to Yulu.

"However, because of this, I also got the complete surveillance video from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-], instead of only the intercepted files. Although there were no after [-]:[-], but because the police rushed into the toilet at [-]:[-] that afternoon, they searched thoroughly. Passing through every place, as Prosecutor Ai said in court, the video footage after the police arrived at the scene is not very meaningful.”

Ji Lan moved the mouse while talking, "I condensed the several hours of pictures into one-fortieth speed, ran the whole thing, and found a few interesting places."

As he spoke, he pressed the playback button, Yulu looked at the white time axis in the upper left corner showing [-]:[-], Ji Lan explained that the surveillance video will automatically change to a file every three hours, that is, from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] One gear, and another gear from six to eight o'clock.This is why the prosecution chose to intercept the six-hour file.

The picture on the screen stays in the toilet on the second floor. Sure enough, as Ye Chang said, very few people come to this toilet. From the surveillance video, you can vaguely see the dust on the side railings, and the light at the door is also dim. Somewhat gray.The camera is set in the corner of the ceiling on the same wall as the toilet, so half of the corridor can be seen, as well as a small piece of toilet tile floor.

Ji Lan quickly pressed the stop button and stopped on this ordinary screen.

"The first doubtful point is here, senior, look."

Yulu folded her arms, no matter how hard she stared at the picture, Yulu still couldn't see anything wrong with the empty toilet door.

"...Where are you looking?"

Yulu had no choice but to be ashamed to ask. I knew that I should have read more Sherlock Holmes and the like when I was a child.

"Did senior not notice the floor at the door of the toilet? There is wet mud on it."

Yulu was stunned, and looked again, and sure enough, he saw a rather inconspicuous black stain on the gray stone corridor outside the toilet, but could still be identified after careful observation.

"Uh, it's mud. But this toilet hasn't been used for a long time, so it's not surprising that there is some mud?"

Yulu said, but Ji Lan quickly shook his head, "Senior, the point is not mud, but wet mud. Senior should know that the weather in July was always clear in the morning and heavy rain in the afternoon, that is, The so-called afternoon thunderstorm, the floor that was wet by the afternoon thunderstorm the day before will dry up in the sun the next day, and will not be wet until the next day."

Ji Lan rummaged in the briefcase for a while, and took out a stack of documents.

"I went to check the exact climate change data for that day. On July 35th, the thunderstorm started at 05:30 in the afternoon, and it turned into light rain at [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and the rain officially stopped at [-]:[-]. Heard Don't seniors think this data is strange?"

Yulu frowned. In the past, Yulu had a bed partner who liked to read mystery novels. He always bought books with strange titles and forced Yulu to read them.Yulu always couldn't help but turn to the end to see who the murderer was halfway through. After reading who the murderer was, he felt a sense of relief: "Ah, I guess the murderer is her!" Then he reasoned the whole book. The novel was thrown aside.

"What's wrong?" Hua Sheng Yulu rubbed his temples and sighed.

"The wet marks on the corridor could not have been left before, it must have been left after it rained. The boy and Mr. Ye Chang entered the toilet after 03:30, but the surveillance video showed that the door was opened at three o'clock. There are already wet marks."

Ji Lan explained patiently, and finally Yulu's rusty head was kind of lit up.

"Ah... so, is that true? Someone hid in the toilet after it started to rain at [-]:[-], before Zhengtai and Mr. Ye entered the toilet?"

Ji Lan's facial features were finally relieved, and he nodded, "I think so, but it doesn't rule out that there are just dirty things being knocked in by the rain. It would be nice if there were obvious footprints. The resolution of the monitor screen is too low. . But I think it's a breaking point in court."

He couldn't hide his regret.Yulu's head was in a mess, and before he had time to sort it out, Ji Lan pressed the play button again.

The picture was still for nearly half an hour. When it was four o'clock, Yulu yawned and drank the hot coffee that the waitress had just brought.When the timeline in the upper left corner jumped to 45:[-], the screen finally changed.

A man walked into the screen. He was wearing a guard's uniform on his upper body, his steps were a little bumpy, his body was wet from the hair down, and he rushed into the toilet as if fleeing.

"It's Ye Chang." Yulu quickly recognized it, and Ji Lan nodded.

Yulu saw that Ye Chang's eyes were in a trance, and he really looked like he was insane.

More than 20 minutes after Ye Chang entered the toilet, a short figure ran into the screen in a panic, holding his head.He was wearing dark blue shorts, his upper body looked like a primary school uniform, his hair was cut into a short watermelon skin, and he was dragging a long thing on his hand.Yulu saw that he was wet from the waist down.

"Is this the murdered boy?" Yulu asked, it was the first time he had seen the victim in this case.The surveillance camera couldn't see his facial features clearly, but he seemed to be a rather handsome kid.

Ji Lan nodded, "According to Ms. Wu, he should have come to hide from the rain. But it's been a while since it started raining. I think he should have been hiding at the end of the corridor, but the rain was so heavy that the edge of the corridor He couldn't cover it, so he changed to this side, it can be seen from the degree of wetness of his clothes."

Yulu saw the half-wet boy looking at the door for a while, then ran in with the skipping rope in his hand.At this time, Ye Chang should be masturbating vigorously in the toilet, and he might not even realize that someone came in.

Then the scene was peaceful again.When it was close to 05:30, Yulu saw Ye Chang rushing out of the toilet. He was disheveled and panicked. He fell down at the door, got up and continued running to the side. He acted like he had done something wrong and ran away in a hurry.

Yulu couldn't help sighing, if he wasn't this person's defense lawyer, just watching this scene continuously, everyone would think that Ye Chang was the murderer,
