Chapter 5

It's really hard to be a judge.

Not long ago, Jin Zhou just read a piece of news that a judge in a criminal case in a certain city was hacked to death at home in retaliation.If you count his father's matter, it can be seen that the judge is indeed a high-risk profession.

But judges are not the only high-risk occupations. Doctors will encounter medical troubles, and glass workers will encounter typhoons. No matter what kind of occupation it is, it is accompanied by certain risks.

If Jin Zhou could choose, he would rather take the risk and pursue his dream career.

The later the time, the quieter the old building becomes.

The lights in the aisle were not very sensitive. The two walked towards the stairs, making moderate footsteps, but none of the lights were turned on.

Yang Shiyu walked ahead without looking back, treating Jin Zhou as air as always.Jin Zhou didn't care, put his hands in his trouser pockets, followed Yang Shiyu leisurely, and said without saying anything: "Hey, Yang Shiyu."

The corridor lights finally responded, illuminating the path under Yang Shiyu's feet.

Just as the two reached the stairs, Yang Shiyu's steps down the stairs paused for a moment. His pace, which had been slowed down by the darkness, returned to the previous speed because the corridor suddenly became bright.

Of course, the lights in the corridor didn't turn on by chance at this time, it was nothing more than Jin Zhou's careful thought of taking care of others.Yang Shiyu should have seen this, and tilted his head slightly when his footsteps stopped, which was regarded as a response to Jin Zhou.

"Didn't you say that being a judge is boring?" Jin Zhou went downstairs at the same pace as Yang Shiyu. Yang Shiyu took his right foot, and he also took his right foot. Stepping out with his left foot, if the two had a good relationship before, he would have put his hands on Yang Shiyu's shoulders, but now looking at the alienated back, he had no choice but to restrain the eager hands in his trouser pockets.

"Everyone's career plan will change." Yang Shiyu said.

"Are you sure you have changed?" Jin Zhou is not easy to be fooled. Although he has not participated in Yang Shiyu's life these years, the doorman has long chatted with him and understood that Yang Shiyu was admitted to the court as soon as he graduated from university. Work, become a post judge at the fastest speed, and the future is bright.

This is like a person who suddenly doesn't want to be a judge in the next semester of his junior year?

Just kidding kids.

"Why does the more I think about it, the more I feel that you are tricking me?" When Jin Zhou said this, Yang Shiyu, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped.He didn't pay attention, his chest bumped against Yang Shiyu's back, and he smelled the familiar smell of shampoo.

At the end of the stairs was the exit of the old building. Yang Shiyu stood still at the exit, looked left and right, and continued walking after making sure that there were no other people around.

Jin Zhou also looked left and right, thinking that Yang Shiyu's anti-investigation awareness was quite strong.

But if you think about it, if a dignified judge came to investigate the case secretly regardless of his identity, if the police or prosecutors knew about it, it would be difficult to explain.

In particular, Yang Shiyu and the victim of the car accident, that is, Jin Zhou's parents, although they are not considered to have any interest, are somewhat inextricably linked. If this is exploited by someone with a heart, it may make Yang Shiyu avoid the case trial.

After the two came out of the building, there was a long slope within a few steps.

Jin Zhou came from the downhill direction, but seeing Yang Shiyu walking uphill in the opposite direction, he followed Yang Shiyu's pace, pretending that he was also coming from that direction.

The two walked back and forth for a while, when a child's cry suddenly sounded in the old tube building, which seemed a little creepy in this quiet street.

Jin Zhou subconsciously shrugged his shoulders, and didn't pay much attention at first, but after taking two steps, he somehow felt that something was wrong, so he stopped and looked back.

The sound insulation effect of the old building is not good, which Jin Zhou deeply understands.

The place where he lives occasionally hears the crying of children, but there must be the voices of adults.

No adult would let their child cry like this, either coaxing them well or educating them. In short, there must be adults involved in such a scene.

But the crying in Tongzilou was very strange. The child kept crying alone, and no adult intervened.

It's not easy for Jin Zhou to take care of other people's housework. Although there are very few residents in this building, if something happens to the child's house, other neighbors should come forward to check.

Not long after, Jin Zhou followed Yang Shiyu to a remote street.

An unremarkable black car was parked under a lush tree. Yang Shiyu took out the car key to unlock it, and Jin Zhou suddenly felt strange: "Do you have a car?"

Yang Shiyu didn't answer, opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat, making it clear that he wanted to part with Jin Zhou here.

Jin Zhou followed all the way, and naturally he was not happy to be thrown off by Yang Shiyu, so he got into the passenger seat with lightning speed.

As soon as the car door was closed, the enclosed space instantly became quiet, as if two isolated worlds had been formed from the street outside.

Yang Shiyu paused as he loosened the handbrake, looked at Jin Zhou with a frown and said, "Get out of the car."

"I didn't drive here." Jin Zhou put on the seat belt familiarly, "You take me home."

"No time." Yang Shiyu frowned even deeper.

"By the way, I won't waste your time." Jin Zhou adjusted the back of the seat and lay down comfortably, "How about I drive? I'm good at driving."

Yang Shiyu was still wearing a baseball cap. Although Jin Zhou couldn't see clearly, he estimated that there should be blue veins on Yang Shiyu's forehead at this time.

"It's okay if you want me to get out of the car," Jin Zhou nestled in the seat, looking at Yang Shiyu with his head tilted, "You carry me down."

Of course Jin Zhou knew that Yang Shiyu would not hug him, he just said this to express his attitude: I won't go down, so what do you do with me.

The judge's power can't play any role at this time, Yang Shiyu can only stare at Jin Zhou with a dark face.

Jin Zhou was overjoyed in his heart, who made Yang Shiyu beat him so hard just now?

The two stalemate for a while, and finally Yang Shiyu let out a sigh of relief, started the car and said, "Where did you learn these customs?"

Before Jin Zhou could answer, Yang Shiyu glanced at him again: "Just like a little rascal."

Jin Zhou has never been shy about others treating him as a bastard, anyway, he himself is not a civilized and polite citizen.

But when Yang Shiyu said that about him, he was not happy.

"You are right, Yang Shiyu," Jin Zhou's tone sank, "Isn't it all your fault that I have become like this?"

Jin Zhou's words are a bit serious. The real culprits should be those who killed his parents, but he did not wrong Yang Shiyu. After all, if it weren't for Yang Shiyu's indifference, he would not have given up on himself and almost abandoned the law. path of.

However, pretending to be deep only lasted for a second, and Jin Zhou couldn't help but glance at Yang Shiyu's reaction.

He originally thought that Yang Shiyu would say something like "it has nothing to do with me" to clear the relationship, but Yang Shiyu just pursed his lips and didn't refute anything, so he just accepted Jin Zhou's accusation.

This person is not really blaming himself, is he?

There was a strange solemnity in the car, Jin Zhou didn't think of it at all, he was not a sad little daughter-in-law, and he insisted on Yang Shiyu being responsible for his life.

If he really had such an idea, he should have approached Yang Shiyu when he knew that he was working in the court, so why wait until now?

"Cough." Jin Zhou cleared his throat in embarrassment, breaking the solemn atmosphere in the car, "When did you buy the car?"

"I bought it a long time ago." Yang Shiyu looked at the front of the road and replied in a flat tone, his voice was not as cold as before.

Jin Zhou couldn't help feeling strange: "You live next to the court, what kind of car do you buy?"

Naturally, Jin Zhou also inquired about Yang Shiyu's address from the doorman. He pretended to be casual and asked the court if there was a shuttle bus to pick up the employees to and from get off work, and then chatted and found out everything he wanted to inquire.

——Judge Yang lives in a nearby residential area and walks to work every day, probably saving money for his wife.

Jin Zhou didn't intend to hide that he knew Yang Shiyu's address. After all, he could find Wang Darong's address, so it's not surprising to know about Yang Shiyu.

Sure enough, Yang Shiyu didn't respond, and glanced at Jin Zhou lightly: "I still need to report to you when I buy a car?"

"That's not what it means." Jin Zhou just felt that the logic was wrong.

Yang Shiyu didn't need to drive to and from get off work, so naturally there was no need to buy a car.But seeing how skillful he was at driving, it was obvious that he often drove out.

Is it—

A thought came to Jin Zhou's mind, could it be that Judge Yang went out to run Didi every night?

... What are you kidding.

"Aren't you poor?" Jin Zhou asked, "How can you buy a car?"

Although this car is only a scooter costing tens of thousands of dollars, which is not a high consumption, Yang Shiyu has always been frugal and will not buy unnecessary things.

Now Yang Shiyu stopped answering, but slowly pulled over the car and stopped, and said to Jin Zhou, "Get out of the car."

Jin Zhou looked puzzled, somehow Yang Shiyu wanted to drive him out of the car again.But he glanced outside the car, only to find that the two had come to an intersection, and he only needed to walk for a few minutes to return to his home.

"How do you know I haven't moved?" Jin Zhou sat without moving, looking straight at Yang Shiyu.

There was an inexplicable expectation in his heart, hoping that Yang Shiyu would secretly pay attention to his life as he thought.

However, Yang Shiyu was not questioned by him, he looked at him calmly and said, "You said you were on the way."

Jin Zhou choked for a moment, how could he have forgotten that Yang Shiyu's brain is so good?

He refused to get off the car just now on the grounds that he was on the way. This sounds like nonsense, and Yang Shiyu probably wouldn't take it seriously.

But not long after, he took the initiative to mention that he knew that Yang Shiyu lived next to the court, which inadvertently made the excuse of "dropping in" a little more authentic, because Yang Shiyu had taught him and knew that their family lived Not far from the courthouse.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Jin Zhou hasn't moved, but you just need to stop the car and try it out.

In fact, before Yang Shiyu said anything, Jin Zhou had already revealed that he was indeed still living in his former home.

Interesting.Jin Zhou thought to himself.

Now that Yang Shiyu had sent him here, Jin Zhou had no reason to stay in the car any longer.

He unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door handle, and said to Yang Shiyu, "I will continue to investigate Wang Darong."

Yang Shiyu immediately frowned with a headache: "Jin Zhou."

"I won't hinder you." Jin Zhou came out of the car, bent slightly, looked at Yang Shiyu in the car and said, "But don't worry about me."

After saying this, Jin Zhou slammed the car door shut and made a goodbye gesture to Yang Shiyu.
