drowning

"Then how can you solve my doubts?"

"I must also participate in Zhou Suxi's case."

Wanliu just smiled, and Xu Yanxin knew he would agree.When Wanliu led Xu Yanxin into Jiangyu's office, Jiangyu's face darkened instantly. He got up and walked towards Xu Yanxin, scanned him carefully, and only looked at Wanliu after confirming that he was intact.Wan Liu said with a smile: "Don't worry, it should be a few catties or a few catties, there is nothing missing, but I promised him to let him participate in this case."

Wan Liu looked at Zhou Suxi and asked, "Do you have any objections?"

Zhou Suxi smiled softly and said, "I'll listen to you."

On the way home, it rained heavily, and the road in front of me was only a piece of car window that was empty and foggy. The heavy rain seemed to loot the city, along with the sins and grievances buried in it.Both Xu Yanxin and Jiang Yu fell silent tacitly.

Xu Yanxin recalled the last words Wanliu said to him in the coffee shop—Jiangyu can really bear it, it's been ten years, if he had the momentum to beat me up for you back then, it would have ended long ago.

That's bad enough.

"Xu Yanxin, dare I say it, dare I listen?" Jiang Yu stood on the rooftop ten years ago and said this to him. He only hesitated for a second, and the determination in Jiang Yu's eyes disappeared.When Xu Yanxin thought of that brief moment again, he felt terrified.He discovered the secret that Jiangyu had hidden for ten years.

His hands were sweaty, like a thief with a handy jewel.He is approaching the dream treasure step by step.Xu Yanxin looked at Jiang Yu secretly through the window. He leaned his elbow on the left window of the car, pressed his fist against his face, and steered the direction with his other hand. patient.Xu Yanxin was delighted, they were blocked in a narrow space by the torrential rain and the endless motorcade.

If he questioned Jiang Yu now, he could get the answer he wanted to hear.Jiang Yu couldn't escape like he did back then.However, his mood became indescribably complicated, maybe he wanted to hear something else rather than whether it was true or not.Jiang Yu didn't know his inner entanglement, glanced at him, and said casually: "Did Wanliu say something?"

"No, he just wanted to ask me if I hate him," Xu Yanxin looked out the window, "Even if I hate him, I can't beat him up."

"If you really hate him, I'll beat him up for you. You can be as familiar as you say."

Xu Yanxin was amused by him, showing dimples.Seeing him smile, Jiang Yu felt her heart soften instantly, and couldn't help stretching out her finger to poke the dimple on his cheek.When Xu Yanxin was poked like this, he was like a deflated balloon. His smile disappeared and he replaced it with a questioning expression.But Jiang Yu said: "I'm sorry, it's not that I really don't want you to participate in this case. Wan stays, I'm always worried that he will get sick again. If he really did something to you, I might..."

"I will regret it."

Xu Yanxin's heart tightened suddenly, even if he didn't look at Jiang Yu's expression, Xu Yanxin knew what he looked like at that time, he would say this seemingly unintentionally, and quickly glanced out the window after speaking.

At that moment, he knew what he wanted to hear.He doesn't want victory, what he wants is confession.He wanted Jiang Yu to say "I love you" more than the answer he got from questioning.Only a person like him who doesn't fight or grab will lose in the emotional game.Obviously he is the one who is favored and relied on, but he and those arrogances are all handed over to others.If Jiang Yu could get a glimpse of his state of mind, he would know that this is the greatest luck in his life.

"Jiangyu, I like you."

Jiang Yu's wheat-colored skin turned red visibly with the naked eye, and said, "Why did you say this all of a sudden?"

He is still pretending to be fierce.

"I'm afraid you don't know, so I tell you specifically," Xu Yanxin held Jiang Yu's hand on the steering wheel and said, "But I'm not a glass doll, and I will protect myself. You too."

It rained heavily that day, and the raindrops that slapped on the car window seemed to cover the sound of the whole world, together with the sound of Jiang Yu's heartbeat when he kissed him sideways.

Heart sounds like a drum.

Jiang Yu likes Xu Yanxin, but he never thought that he and Xu Yanxin would be so compatible.He is a complete evidence theorist, he only believes in evidence, and Xu Yanxin, a rather idealistic intuitionist, can always detect clues that he ignores.For example, Xu Yanxin was able to immediately perceive the trickiness of the "orphanage". According to the civil law, the orphanage should be equipped with management positions such as dean, branch secretary, and trade union chairman. In Zhou Suxi's memory, only the dean one.Xu Yanxin sighed: "So there was no 'orphanage' in the first place, it was just a place where Xia Qingzheng illegally abducted and trafficked children. And the local leaders didn't notice anything, it's really stupid."

After hearing this, Jiang Yu said, "It's not that I didn't notice it, but I pushed the boat along the way. Zhou Suxi once said that Xia Qingzheng's contacts are very wide, and he even came to Hong Kong as a 'guest'. This is a crime with the acquiescence of the local leaders." So Xia Qingzheng deliberately chose a remote mountainous area to deceive people. It is not difficult to convict Xia Qingzheng of abducting and trafficking children, and the local government is negligent. However, the real difficulty is to find out this series of interest groups. We need evidence."

Xu Yanxin worried: "Can we still find evidence for what happened 15 years ago?"

"There is no fire in this world that can be wrapped in paper. I will go to Qiushan next week," Jiang Yu glanced at Xu Yanxin's eager expression, and said, "I can take you there, but you have to promise me that after arriving in Qiushan, you You have to listen to me, and don't be impulsive."

Xu Yanxin nodded quickly.

However, when Xu Yanxin and Jiang Yu packed their luggage, two unexpected guests came. Seeing Xu Yanxin packing their luggage, Wan Liu said, "Yo, it just so happens that we are going on a long trip."

After hearing this, Jiang Yu said, "He's on bail now, you can't take him out of City S."

Wanliu narrowed his eyes, and instead of looking at Jiangyu, he said to Xu Yanxin, "I guess, are you going to Qiushan too?"

Xu Yanxin's complexion changed, and he couldn't hide what was on his mind.Wan Liu laughed when he got the answer, as if he knew something important, he put his hand on Jiang Yu's shoulder, and said, "It just happened to be on the way, why don't you pick us up? Lawyer Jiang doesn't have to worry about us running away. Stopped by the police." Jiang Yu glanced at the hand on his shoulder, turned his wrist with a cold face, Wanliu let out a cry of pain, Zhou Suxi, who has always been quiet, grabbed Jiang Yu's arm and pointed at Xu Yanxin plead.Seeing the distorted smile on Wan Liu's face and Zhou Su's frightened eyes, Xu Yanxin felt powerless.

A madman, a sick man.If they were left alone, Zhou Suxi might not be ordered to go to court when they came back from Qiushan.Xu Yanxin glanced at Jiang Yu, and Jiang Yu obviously understood the pros and cons, and said to Wan Liu with a cold face: "You bastard." After hearing this, Wan Liu only laughed harder, while Zhou Suxi supported him. His arm, murmured that he wanted to see his hand, but Wanliu pushed him away annoyed, leaving Zhou Suxi with his hand raised empty.

Jiang Yu rented an off-road vehicle and drove to Qiushan. Xu Yanxin looked out the window. It was only a few hours' drive from the row upon row of high-rise buildings to the empty wasteland.Xu Yanxin recalled the excitement and joy when he went to Qingshui County, but now only complicated emotions are left.Young people always think that the world is transformed by him, and all things are at his mercy, but they don't know that the world is irreversible, and all things cannot be moved.When he arrived at the nearby service station, Wan Liu was going to the bathroom, and Zhou Suxi followed him step by step like a little tail.

Xu Yanxin raised his eyes and said to Jiang Yu: "Even if we can prove Zhou Suxi's innocence in self-defense, what should he do next? In prison, he has a hard time, but not in prison, he is at the mercy of Wanliu."

Jiang Yu pondered for a long time, and said clearly: "You are worried that he will win the lawsuit and lose his life just like Lin Yao. But can you and I make it clear? Maybe one day Lin Yao or Zhou Suxi will all be fine. They can figure it out and survive without being afraid of other people’s gossip. At least if they win the lawsuit, they can get their innocence. If they lose, they get nothing.”

"You're right, I'm too worried."

Jiang Yu smiled and said: "This is your strength, and you are destined to become a better lawyer than me. It is precisely because of this that Zhou Suxi was willing to tell you about the case at first, not me."

Xu Yanxin looked at him in surprise, Jiang Yu rarely praised him so bluntly.

"But in the same way, this is also your weakness," Jiang Yu looked at the wheat field in the distance, "One day you will find that this world does not deserve justice."

Xu Yanxin thought about his words carefully, and Jiang Yu smiled when he saw him, "I'm just pretending to be tough, why do you take it seriously? Let's go. We have to drive for a few more hours." Jiang Yu left Turned off the light source, walked forward, Xu Yanxin followed.The overwhelming night slowly enveloped them.All things gazed at them silently.

When they arrived at Qiushan, even Jiang Yu couldn't help but talk loudly.Obviously, the modernization of the past ten years has not favored this village. It is only eight or nine o'clock, and there are no pedestrians on the road. There are no hotels within a radius of ten miles, and there are only two or three guest houses. One of them is still hung with neon lights. It looked so irregular, if Tao Yuanming saw it, he might have to lift the coffin boards and scold him for three days and three nights.Zhou Suxi, who had always been timid and quiet, pointed at the guest house and said, "I recognize the proprietress of that shop."

Xu Yanxin and Jiang Yu looked at each other and decided on the accommodation.As soon as I entered the guest house, I saw the girl at the front desk was using Douyin with the volume turned up to the fullest. After seeing the group of them, she curled her lips before introducing them to the room.There are only two mountain view rooms left, one hundred and two per night.Jiang Yu took out the money in good faith, and the girl at the front desk took the money, and she felt better, and then she looked at the strangers, and saw that they were very handsome and expensive, so she took the initiative to say: "Come to do the adoption." of?"

Xu Yanxin said calmly: "Don't we look like tourists?"

The girl at the front desk smiled and said, "Even beggars don't want to come to Qiushan to ask for money. What's there to do? It's just to see a poor ghost or a thief. It's a good thing to protect the wallet. Except for those who adopt children, there is no There will be no foreigners coming to our place. But since Dean Xia retired, there are fewer people coming."

"Was it a lot before?"

"Every month, a group of people come to live in our house," the girl at the front desk advertised, "The two houses next door are dirty and run-down, our place is clean and cheap, and our proprietress is a former student of Dean Xia, as long as they are Those introduced by Dean Xia will be given discounts, and they will respond to requests."

Jiang Yu suddenly said: "Are you alone in the shop at night?"

"That's right, the proprietress has lived in the county town, and she seldom comes here." The girl at the front desk smiled, "Don't worry, I can take care of it by myself. Just call if you want any service."

What this "service" is is self-evident.

When going upstairs, Wanliu joked: "Zhou Suxi, could it be that you used to be the 'waiter' here?"

Zhou Suxi pursed his lips tightly and said, "No..."

Wanliu said again: "Look at yourself, do you believe me? I'm suddenly interested, why don't I order a service for you to try? You probably haven't been served before." Xu Yanxin couldn't listen anymore, Grabbing Wanliu's arm, Wanliu laughed maniacally, and said, "I'm a scumbag, what's wrong with talking about scumbags? Xu Yanxin, why did you heal your scar and forget the pain? Grab my wrist on the stairs, aren't you afraid I'll push you again?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yu immediately twisted his wrist and knocked Wanliu to the ground. With his leather boots stepping on his head, he said, "Are you finished? Don't think that lawyers are cowards who sit in offices. What do you mean? Self-defense, I know better than you what emergency avoidance is." Wan Liu listened and just smiled, but the more he laughed, the harder Jiang Yu stepped on his head, the veins were all over Wan Liu's forehead, Xu Yanxin was afraid that something might happen, Immediately grabbed Jiang Yu and let him forget it, but Jiang Yu sneered: "I can't wait to wring his head off."

After Wanliu knew that he was serious, he reluctantly smiled and begged for mercy.When Jiang Yu let go, his eyes were already about to burst, and his eyes were red. Zhou Suxi went to help him, but he pushed him away forcefully.He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, smiled and said to Jiang Yu: "You really wanted to kill me just now. Can someone like you be a lawyer? Interesting, really interesting. The little bastard put on a suit and sat in the office , he’s still a gangster at heart. Xu Yanxin, don’t you want to know how a poor gangster went to study in England?”

"He drafted overlord contracts for wealthy businessmen in the country, helped them evade taxes, transfer assets in the country, and even this case," Wanliu said with a smile, "Do you really believe that he, a barrister, wants to reverse the case for poor men-prostitutes? Why is it for social justice? , For the sake of ideals and reality, it’s all nonsense, he’s never been a good person, so he’ll just lie to you. Justice—it makes people laugh.”
