"He promised to see you," Chai Fang on the phone sighed, "No one is willing to answer the sensational rape case, he must be very sad. You must not provoke him, he is very fragile now. "

"of course."

After Xu Yanxin thanked him, he hung up the phone, and Jiang Yu looked up at him, "Shall I take you there?"

"You can work on your case, I can go by myself." Xu Yanxin picked up the canvas bag and was about to rush out, but Jiang Yu grabbed her wrist and stuffed a sandwich.

"Thank you for the loving breakfast."

Jiang Yu rolled his eyelids, "I bought too many materials."

Xu Yanxin just laughed, not trying to expose his little thoughts.

Chai Fang helped him make an appointment at the coffee shop.It was a small coffee shop that was quiet amidst the hustle and bustle, and there were many green plants outside.However, his client was not moved by the lush greenery. He was dressed in a black turtleneck and trousers, wrapping his body tightly.After Xu Yanxin took his seat, his client stopped biting his fingers and looking around, and focused his gaze on Xu Yanxin's wrist.After Xu Yanxin introduced herself, she didn't wait for his response.He was still staring at his wrist.

"Is there anything weird on my hand?"

The person opposite did not look at his face, but was still staring at his wrist.Xu Yanxin didn't want to rush him, but just waited quietly for him to speak.After an unknown amount of time, the person on the other side suddenly raised his lips, "If you were raped by a man, would you die?"

"will not."

"Oh, but what face do you have to live in this world? As a woman, being raped means losing your virginity, as a man, being raped means disgusting, 'what kind of man is raped by a man', that's like me People who are neither male nor female seem to have no choice but to die. If they don’t die, they seem to be a bit cheap, just to live in this world so shamelessly.” He looked at Xu Yanxin quite maliciously, “I heard that you graduated from P University You are a talented student, very capable. But I look at your body shape, if you are raped by a man, you will not be able to resist, right? Or can you educated people be able to dispel the rapist's sexual desire with just a few words?"

Xu Yanxin remembered what Chai Fang said, the child's parents actually wanted to be private.

"Didn't you arouse his sexual desire?" Xu Yanxin looked at him, "Rape is a kind of sexual violence. So no matter whether you are a man or a woman, or how many clothes you wear, you cannot avoid a person's violence."

The person on the opposite side was taken aback, but still said: "It sounds good. When I went to call the police, they saw my ID card and told me, 'There is no such thing as raping a man', and told me to go back and stay. I told They, I have two sets of sex organs, the police officer in charge smiled and said to me, 'There are really intersex people in this world', they are people who can't speak beautiful words, but your lawyers are people who can only speak beautiful words , Say something to help me find justice, in fact, they are all looking for and laughing at me behind my back!"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, his voice became higher and higher, and many people turned their heads to look at them.However, Xu Yanxin still looked at him calmly and gently, just like looking at every ordinary person.

"They are brainless," Xu Yanxin said. "After the rape case is over, we can continue to sue the police for negligence."

The person on the opposite side gritted his teeth, "I'm a bi-sexual person, don't you have anything to say to me?"

Xu Yanxin thought for a while and said, "No, if I have to say it, I will stay with you until we send him to prison together."

The person opposite paused, "Is this possible?"

"Maybe, and must."

Everyone who is moved by Xu Yanxin will find that he has nothing but simple "people" in his eyes.

Whether healthy or sick; whether rich or poor; whether male or female.In his eyes, they are all one person first, and then others.

The dignity that was not preserved was fully recovered at that moment.Perhaps this is why he moved Jiang Yu back then.

His client was surnamed Lin and named Yao.There are two sets of sex organs from birth.However, the ID card says "male", and the DNA test AMEL shows "XY", that is, male.The rape law guarantees only women.When talking about the rape law, Lin Yao asked, "Why isn't it illegal to rape a man?"

While recording the basic situation, Xu Yanxin said, "Because the law is lagging."

After Lin Yao heard this, he giggled, "You really don't look like a lawyer. I have met several lawyers, and they sympathized with my experience, but when they mentioned this, they would repeatedly emphasize the limitations of the current law. Rationality, tell me how messed up it gets when a man is raped. Slave to the law."

"According to the statistics of the US CDC, one out of every 71 American men is raped by a man, accounting for 1.4% of the total population, and in American prisons, it is as high as 22%. This is not a very small group, or what is the legal qualification How about not protecting the interests of minority groups?" After Xu Yanxin finished speaking, she raised her head to look at him, "In our country, because our laws are relatively backward, I need to understand your self-gender perception."

Lin Yao laughed at himself, "With my face, I'm afraid that many people don't believe me when I say I'm a woman?"

He is by no means tall and thick. His eyebrows and eyes resemble women, which are softer, but the outline is sharper than most women.Xu Yanxin said: "Women don't necessarily have soft looks, and men don't necessarily look so strong. You just need to tell me your self-perception, and I will convince the judge about the rest."

Lin Yao pursed his lower lips, "I'm a girl. Until now, I think so too. Since I was a child, I have played with girls, entered the girls' bathroom, and slept in a dormitory with girls. When I was working in the clubhouse—— When I went to work, the boss only told me that we just need to drink with me. I have no culture. I worked as a coffee shop clerk before, but I had very little money. I was short of money. So I would work part-time at night, but That is definitely not prostitution. If I knew that this kind of thing would happen to me, no matter how much I was paid, I would not go there. When I was in the shop, I used the name 'Lin Yao', which I gave myself Named by myself."

"Next, I'll ask you some questions about the incident, and if you feel uncomfortable in any way, we can all take a break."

Lin Yao gave a soft "hmm".

Even though Xu Yanxin had made enough mental preparations, he still couldn't help but be shocked by his memories.

But what is even more frightening is the people's persecution.The policeman who received his report asked, what kind of clothes did you wear at that time, did you show your waist?Where's the skirt?skirt?How short is it?Oh, above the knee.Have you been drinking?Three bottles of beer?Three beers is a lot - is it possible that you're subconsciously agreeing to his sexual advances?Calm down, don't be so hysterical.You are at the police station now, you have to do things calmly, don't act so emotional, don't yell.

The father who learned that the child was raped said, I will tell you, don't go out at night, don't drink too much, don't dress like that, like a whore, you don't listen, now it's okay, you make me like this Go out to meet people?He was already pointed at by the neighbors in the neighborhood, but now he is going to be stabbed in the back?Can you stop crying?My child works at the clubhouse?I lost all face.What's the meaning?It's as if you are selling it for your younger brother. Your younger brother is a boy and has to get married and ask for a wife. You are a working person and you still live at home. Shouldn't I ask you for some money?why are you crying?Is it over?I really can't talk to you anymore.If you were a little stronger, you wouldn't be raped by him.It is because of your mother-in-law that it is like this.

And his friends said, bear with it, if it is known by everyone, should it be spread like this?I know you are in pain.But sending him to jail won't take away your pain.Endurance passed.

No one ever told him it wasn't your fault.

It's not your fault that you work in the clubhouse.

It's not your fault you were raped.

Compared with the 500 million private expenses, it is certainly not your fault to seek justice.

However, this is not the end.

Xu Yanxin said to him: "If you are willing to stand in court, I will definitely fulfill my promise. I will never let go of this case until I see him go to jail. However, you may be asked this question a second time. And we need witnesses , needs the testimony of those who have said such things to you, that you have lived as a woman up to this point."

Lin Yao twitched the corner of his mouth, "It's really unfair."

"sorry."

Lin Yao covered his face, smiling and crying, "It's strange, why did you apologize to me? Where is the person who should say sorry to me now, and what kind of girl is he bullying?"

"Will he apologize to me?"

"A bastard like this, even if he apologizes, he just hopes that the court will give him a lighter sentence," Xu Yanxin said, "but he has spent many years in prison facing the wall and regretting it."

"Why do you want to be a lawyer?"

Xu Yanxin pondered for a long time, and said: "I never thought that I would become a lawyer. It was just that someone casually mentioned that this is the way to escape from the dilemma, so I took this way. However, I occasionally Thinking, maybe I can offer someone a third option as well.”

"Lawyers are really good at talking nice words."

Lin Yao smiled.

Xu Yanxin said with a smile: "I can not only speak beautiful words, but also do beautiful things."

Back home, before Xu Yanxin took off his shoes, Jiang Yu asked, "Is everything going well?"

Jiang Yu was wearing a suit and obviously just returned home, Xu Yanxin suddenly found this scene very interesting.They are old classmates, peers, and competitors, and of course they are also young couples who are not yet in love.

Xu Yanxin jumped on him and smiled.Jiang Yu took a few steps back due to inertia, but still caught him steadily.Because it's spring, Xu Yanxin is no longer the plump Xu Yanxin in winter. He is thin, with a lotus root pink T-shirt on the butterfly bone, and the fragrance of shower gel on his exposed neck, which is refreshing and cool. sweet.The shower gel is picked by Jiangyu.

Jiang Yu didn't dare to put his hands on his waist, but held his back vaguely, "You haven't caught up with anyone yet, you'll be pounced on and pulled, what does it look like?"

"I just suddenly wondered, do you still have the comic books I left with you?"

Jiang Yu frowned, and picked him up, "You threw yourself into your arms just for this? I threw it away a long time ago. If I don't throw it away, why don't I keep the comic book for you?"

"But I keep the wind chime you gave me, and the record player too."

"It would be great if that record player could be given to you sooner." Xu Yanxin put her chin on his chest and looked up at him, "Maybe we could be together long ago."

"No, you probably didn't like me back then."

Jiang Yu didn't speak, but just hugged his shoulder tightly.

Xu Yanxin asked him: "What about now, do you like it now?"

"What do you say?"

"Such indifference, probably not—" Xu Yanxin said again, "Bet me, Jiang Yu. I will definitely become a regular within three months, I have confidence."

Jiang Yu moved his Adam's apple and said nothing, just hugged him.
