Chapter 193: Return

The scenery of the Northern Tang Dynasty, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting, frozen half dead......

......

Four months after disappearing and leaving, Cao Yun finally returned to the Eastern Tang Dynasty. Travel, if you travel all your life, then travel is not fun.

In the past four months, Cao Yun has met many people and encountered many things. While increasing my knowledge, I also have plenty of time to think about life and myself.

Takayama Law Firm has officially moved to a 'mansion' in the southern suburbs, at least the backyard is a mansion. The biggest change is Lu Yihang, who has an American lawyer's license, went to Dongtang to get a license, and has been interning for more than half a year, and submitted an application to the bar committee last month. In view of Lu Yihang's performance during his internship and a letter of recommendation from the law firm, the lawyer committee approved Lu Yihang's regularization.

Now there are a total of three formal lawyers in Gaoshan Law Firm, and Lu Yihang is a civil lawyer, which can also be called a solicitor, and it will take at least one year to get a barrister certificate. As for trainee lawyers Wei Jun and Yun Yin, it will take several months to complete their internships.

After moving to the mansion, the staff configuration is: receptionist Haruko. A clerk has a part-time financial clerk and an errand clerk. Part-time accountant. All the lawyers and staff, have been relocated to the mansion. Although it is six kilometers away from the nearest supermarket and more than 40 kilometers away from the city center, it is a little inconvenient in life, but the environment is very good and is deeply loved by everyone.

Cao Yun came back without saying a word, and entered the mansion, the receptionist Qingzi was stunned for a long time, she was an old acquaintance, and hugged each other lightly, Cao Yun asked, "How is the law firm recently?"

Haruko nodded: "Very good." ”

The absence of the earth does not affect its rotation.

It's afternoon work time, and everyone is there, but not all of them are working. Gao Shan Xingyi sat on a beach chair, lying on the edge of the cliff, with juice on the table next to her, as if she was on vacation in a hotel.

Yun Yin is soaking in the artificial hot spring in the backyard, making a soothing sound from time to time.

Wei Jun was studying alone in his office on the first floor, with a lot of legal materials in front of him, and Cao Yun raised his hand with her at the door. Wei Jun was a little surprised when he saw Cao Yun coming back, but when he saw Cao Yun's polite movements, he nodded in response. Wei Jun's relationship with everyone has always remained indifferent.

Lu Yihang was working, he sat in a chair, in front of him was a drawing board, plastered with clues to the case, and on the table were relevant law books. While moving the clues of the case, he checked the law books, very attentive and serious, and didn't even find Cao Yun at the door.

Cao Yun went to the backyard, didn't bother Gao Shan Xing, took off his shoes, and soaked his feet in the artificial hot spring pool...... it, it's hot.

"Bear with me, and you'll be comfortable for a while. Yun Yin sat on the edge of the pool sweating profusely, he and Gao Shan Xing knew that Cao Yun would come back in the next two days, and they were not excited at all when they saw Cao Yun, so they asked an important question first: "Is my car okay?" For men, sometimes the car is the wife, but Yun Yin has too many wives, and the cherished wife is reluctant to drive it herself. Although I don't care about concubines and the like, they are concubines after all, and they have to care about them.

Cao Yun replied: "In addition to high fuel consumption, expensive maintenance, and expensive parts, they are all good. "The maintenance fee for BBA, B is double that of 2B, the maintenance fee for 2B is double that of American cars, and the maintenance fee for American cars is double that of Dongtang cars.

"Cao Yun. Gao Shan Xing finally found Cao Yun twenty meters away, and there was surprise in his words, he came up and hugged Cao Yun, and said, "I thought you were going to change jobs to be a traveler." ”

"That's not enough money to be a traveler, sit. ”

As soon as Gao Shan Xing's slippers were put down, he also sat down, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he complained: "I can't stand the electricity bill and water bill, and the electricity bill was 13,000 last month." ”

"Wow. Cao Yun was taken aback, the electricity bill in Dongtang was more expensive than Gao Yan, once it was more than a piece, and it took 10,000 kilowatt-hours, which seemed to be an exaggeration.

Yun Yin said indifferently: "Do you think that the water energy of the pool depends on solar energy for constant temperature?" Boss, pull calmly." You get 10 million or 20 million in legal fees. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Yun asked, "Isn't the case over yet?"

Gao Shan Xing was reluctant to talk to Cao Yun about the case, and Cao Yun and Wang Zi disagreed. Gao Shan Xing replied simply: "I have divided the cash first, and now I am going through legal channels on the issue of real estate disposal." What Gao Shan Xing didn't say was that when Cui Qian divided the cash and found that Gao Shan Xing was still messing around, she was furious, regardless of etiquette and identity, and brought her driver and bodyguards to settle the account. The three corpse gods who can make an elegant and calm beauty angry also show that she is really angry.

After Gao Shan Xing answered casually, she changed the subject and asked, "What about my gift?"

Cao Yun smiled and reached into his pocket and took out a box, Gao Shan Xing opened it and saw that it was a sapphire, very beautiful, and couldn't help it: "Wow." ”

"I don't know if you prefer to hang necklaces or rings, take care of it yourself. By the way, I encountered something when I was passing by Hengtang......" Cao Yun roughly explained, and asked: "What happened to the EOD team leader in the end?"

Gao Shan Xing's expression was strange, and he said, "You don't know the news that has caused a sensation across the country?"

"I turn off my phone, I don't watch TV, I only check tourist attractions on the Internet. ”

Gao Shan Xing said: "Soon after the fraud and extortion occurred in Hengtang, the same fraud and extortion appeared in Mingtang, and after the Mingtang police released the two prisoners, they asked the gangsters to release the fraud. The gangster asked the police, do you prefer white or blue? The policeman replied: white. The gangster said: I'm sorry, I like blue. And then it exploded. ”

"Damn. Cao Yun was shocked, not surprised by the other party's serial crimes, he speculated that the case was similar to the Yisha guess of the Hengtang search lesson, and there must be a follow-up. He was shocked that the other party was so shameless.

Gao Shan Xing said: "More than a month later, the same case occurred in Datang. This time, the gangster did not ask for the release of the prisoner, but asked to play a game with the elite police detective of Datang Search Lesson, he set up four puzzles in Datang, and if the detective could solve the puzzle, he would release him. ”

is worthy of being an elite police detective, with agile skills, excellent brains, and solving three puzzles in a row. The fourth puzzle went wrong, the gangster told the detective that the detective's wife had been drugged and was currently being held hostage by a man to a certain room in a hotel, and the detective had two options, one option was to go to a certain hotel immediately, which could save his wife. One option is to go to the hijacked vehicle and allow him to open the door to rescue the hostage.

Due to the presence of recording equipment during problem solving, it is not allowed to communicate with the outside world. Coupled with the fact that the hotel is near where the detective completes the third puzzle, the detective chooses the hotel and finds out that he has been deceived. The gangster told the detective, as a police detective, why would you believe such nonsense?

The gangsters explained several of the flaws, the first point is that the hotel is a regular hotel, how the man hijacked the unconscious detective's wife to register the room and deliver it to the room. Second, if the man is an accomplice of the gangsters and the detective chooses a hotel, the gangsters lose an accomplice. Assuming that the man is not an accomplice of the gangsters, how could the gangsters be able to grasp the time so accurately? Third, even if the gangsters did not deceive people, it would take at least eight minutes for the detective to reach the hotel room, would the man still be in a daze for eight minutes?

The gangsters detonated the scam bomb.

Three cases of bomb fraud, three main deceased. One was Mary, a Frenchman who worked in the Eastern Tang Dynasty and was killed when she went to Hengtang to collect materials. The second is an expatriate from a foreign company, a man, 32 years old. The third Datang victim is a male, 47 years old, a foreign language teacher at an education and training institution, a Datang native, and a returnee ABC.

At present, the police do not have many clues, only Datang's detectives have obtained some information, as for what information is, the news has not been disclosed. Because the gangsters used the nickname of the expedition when communicating with the Datang detectives, the police and the news temporarily set the name of the gangster as the expedition.

Cao Yun asked, "It was Mary who was killed in Hengtang...... It's a girl in the same studio as Lin Luo. ”

"Lin Luo?" Yun Yin said: "I met Lin Luo at the airport and said that they were going to Milan to participate in the design of the fashion show...... I also asked why Mary was not there, and Lin Luo said that something happened to Mary, and they would visit her in Europe this time...... No wonder Lin Luo was a little sad when he said it, it turned out that everyone went to worship Mary together. ”

After Cao Yun traveled, he first called Cao Yun more frequently. Slowly, Cao Yun faded out of the popular ranks in the industry. Cao Yun went online to watch industry news, and now the hottest figure in Gao Shan Law Firm is Gao Shan Xing. Gao Shan Xing jumped into the team because of a lawsuit with Cui Qian, but the media is also very poisonous, and they actually know that Gao Shan Xing is behind Wang Zi.

Last question, is there Cao Yun's residence in the mansion?

There are two large suites on the third floor of this mansion, and many rooms on the second floor. According to reason, it should be Cao Yun and Gao Shan Xing in one suite. One boss, one mainstay.

But the suite is full, Lu Yihang will definitely be humble, and Wei Jun will definitely not rob it. The person who robbed was naturally the lawyer Yunyin who paid half of the rent. Although he rarely stayed for a few days a month, he had a problem with face, so he grabbed a suite. He is currently planning the tarmac and considering buying a helicopter. Helicopters are not expensive, only a few million. The biggest problem with helicopters is landing, but there is a helipad without a helicopter, which is completely inconsistent with the need for face.

Cao Yun didn't care where he lived. Haruko and the others each have their own rooms on the second floor. They left the best room with the largest area, more than 60 square meters, to Cao Yun, which also has a large balcony and is a VIP room on the second floor.

The next is the trivialities, Cao Yun originally lived in all the housekeepers and provided weekly health services. Every two days, the housekeeper will take away all of Cao Yun's dirty clothes, and there are so few residents here that it is impossible to ask the housekeeper to serve him personally...... It's not impossible, it's just that Cao Yun hasn't gotten used to it yet. Living here is equivalent to one more annoyance, doing laundry and hygiene.

The mansion also has housekeeping services, and the housekeeping does a full cleaning of the mansion once a week, but it does not involve the rooms, including the office.

Although there are all these trivial troubles, as long as you walk to the backyard, it immediately feels like it is worth it. The casual and comfortable backyard allows Cao Yun to endure some small troubles in life.

......

Time passed day by day, and ten days have passed in the blink of an eye, and Cao Yun has been at home for ten days. Wake up every day to dry your clothes and grab a cup of coffee in the backyard. Lunch is a working meal, the standard is a small restaurant takeaway, occasionally Takayama apricots are treated, you can eat the whole family bucket, pizza and the like. Take a nap after lunch, drink coffee after a nap, surf the Internet or go to the backyard to soak in the hot springs. Dinner is a private meal, and it is currently served by Haruko, and the taste is very average. It was quiet after dinner, but there were a lot of people living in the law firm, and everyone would get together to play cards, chat, soak in the hot springs, or hold a barbecue party. Go to bed at ten o'clock, and the next day is a new day.

This life is not bad, the problem is that Cao Yun has no business, and no business is equal to no income. I came back for ten days, living a basically the same life, and no case came to my door. It is also understandable that, after all, the cancellation of legal consultation business is equivalent to a lot of less case sources. Cao Yun has not yet entered the elite class, and was blocked by Bai Su.

While in a daze on the grass, Cao Yun occasionally thought of the Flame Court, and it seemed that his current highest-end resident client was the Flame Court. The Flame Court opened the third case more than a month ago, and Cao Yun was a little expecting that the Flame Court would contact him in the fourth case.

To talk about the Flame Court, after the three cases, it has actually established some credibility, and fans of the Flame Court have also appeared on the Internet. They come together through social networking sites or software. There are also those who believe that the Flame Court can fill some of the shortcomings of ordinary courts. The official has a hard time speaking, and he can't tell the people that law is order, not justice. The official must recognize the law as justice, so that official justice can be demonstrated.

Objectively speaking, if the law is based on justice, then who defines justice? Everyone has his own justice in his heart.

"Lawyer Cao, watch the news. Haruko greeted.

Cao Yun returned to the living room from the backyard, Lu Yihang sensibly gave up the position facing the center of the wall TV, and Cao Yun thanked him and sat down. The picture shows a group of reporters surrounding the Dongtang police chief. The director was in his fifties, with clear hair, lean and capable, but he looked quite tired.

The screen turned back to the live broadcast room, and the host introduced the current situation. In a word, the recent 'expedition' that made trouble in the Tang Dynasty released a challenge letter through the media, and after the Tang Dynasty, the Heng Tang Dynasty, the Ming Tang Dynasty, etc., finally arrived in the Eastern Tang Dynasty. Yuanzheng said that Dongtang has the best private detectives, the best police detectives, the best lawyers, and the best judicial personnel are concentrated in Dongtang, so he listed Dongtang as the target of the final challenge. He hoped that the Dongtang police would pick one or three judicial officers to play a game of bomb fraud with him. If the police wish, he will call someone 24 hours to ask for a means of contact, and after 48 hours he will start the game. If the Dongtang police are unwilling, then the tragedy of Zhutang will definitely be staged in Dongtang.

Finally, the English recording of the expedition said something inexplicable: "Living people, beware of the breakup in the world." ”

After a few nonsense words from the host, the TV switched back to the TV series.

Lu Yihang said: "Living people, be careful of the breakup in the world. This is a poem by the famous Russian poet Gipius: Be careful. The gist of the poem is to make people cherish love and cherish the people around them, otherwise your lights will be extinguished in sadness. It means that when you die, grief is your last emotion. Is this a notice?"

There are many comics in the country where the Eastern Tang Dynasty is located, and there are similar content in them. A terrible villain challenges the police and gives them a letter, and the puzzle is hidden in the letter. This is also known as a notice letter. However, this kind of villain usually has a lot of fans among the people, and belongs to the illegal and righteous people.

Haruko: "Lawyer Cao?" No one answered Lu Yihang's words, and everyone waited for Cao Yun to speak.

"Ah......" Cao Yun came back to his senses: "Yue Sanchi has been transferred to Dongtang, she should be very interested in playing this game with the expedition." Let's take a look at the excitement, and in order to avoid us becoming hostages, we should not go out alone these days, it is better not to go out. After all, the law firm is still a bit famous. ”

After Cao Yun finished speaking, he got up and returned to the backyard, sat on a chair, put his feet on the guardrail, looked at the sea in the distance and the beautiful horizon, closed his eyes and fell asleep, savoring the faint smell of sea water in the air.

This poem is not the notice letter that Lu Yihang guessed, this is a code code, and the simple explanation is: I am the Soviet army.
