After lunch, until she returned to the law firm, Fang Miao was chattering all the way, saying that she would have a treat, but in the end, Han Junchi paid for the meal, did not repay the favor, and owed new debts.

"Oh my God, are we already at the point of scheming between the two of us?" Han Junchi stomped into the law firm, looking crazy.

Fang Miao followed him and blushed anxiously: "The key is you, you always like to turn over old accounts, and I always have to make some action, don't you?"

"I'm going through old accounts?" Han Junchi was almost stunned, and turned back to himself and asked.

Seeing that the other party nodded extremely sincerely, Han Junchi's face sank, and he suddenly had nothing to say, and quickly walked into the office with his feet raised.

Other colleagues looked at the two people with different eyes, snickering at each other.

Fang Miao smiled and slipped into his office.

Tomorrow is the day of the trial of the "Poplar Case", and in the afternoon, Fang Miao and Meng Chaoge were urgently preparing materials, editing and printing, and they were busy with their feet not touching the ground.

At the end of the day, Meng Chaoge's task was completed and he left first, at 7 o'clock in the evening, everyone else was almost gone, Fang Miao got up from the desk, tilted his head and moved his stiff neck, and the sound of "clucking" bone dislocation sounded.

After the event, she cleaned up the papers on the table, and unexpectedly the door was knocked twice, and before she could react, the door was pushed open.

"Miao Miao, haven't finished working overtime yet?" Li Xin leaned in halfway and asked.

Fang Miao yawned, "After packing up the papers, I'll go down." ”

"Alright, I'll send you back in a moment. ”

Fang Miao nodded, sped up and packed up, carried the small bag, turned off the light and locked the door to leave.

The car made a few turns, entered the main lane, and merged into the traffic.

"Sister Xin, I didn't notice that you had a new car. Fang Miao looked around in surprise, and visually saw that this was much larger than the previous one.

Li Xin chuckled: "I changed it when I came back this time, I broke down on a business trip last time, the problem was quite big, I didn't want to repair it, I sold a second-hand car, and I added a few dollars to buy a new one." ”

Fang Miao sighed, the difference in her heart was too great, Li Xin and Han Junchi were in the same university, and they were both her seniors, and they were both her seniors and seniors, and they were both good in the society, they had a family background and a career, and they were the envy of many people in the industry.

As for her, although she can be called "fame and fortune", she is actually just an ordinary person without any personal aura, and she has to think twice before buying a car or a house!

"Miao Miao, you are now considered to have a successful career, and you have never thought about getting married?"

"Married?" Fang Miao caught the key word and exclaimed, "It's really not, first, I can't find a suitable one, and second, I think 32 years old is not bad to wait a few more years." ”

Li Xin laughed, he didn't expect this reason, and pondered for a moment: "Marriage has nothing to do with age, and it's not good to say that it's too big, if it's appropriate, don't we have a person in our law firm?"

"Huh?" Fang Miao frowned, turned her head, waved her hand and replied: "Sister Xin, don't be joking, those in the law firm are all juniors younger than me, I like Xiao Xianrou Yes, but I still need to be screened in terms of age." ”

It happened that a red light flashed at the intersection ahead, Li Xin slowed down and stepped on the brakes, and looked sideways at the person next to him: "Is there someone you automatically ignore?"

Fang Miao blinked, looking confused.

"Han Junchi!" Li Xin read out the name excitedly, and the roadside lights penetrated through the car window to blur even more, blurring the little emotion at the corner of her eyes.

When the words fell, Fang Miao's face was full of disbelief, and he frowned a little disgusted?

"Sister Xin, I heard you right, me and him?" Fang Miao waved his hand again and shook his head, "Let's not talk about his character, the key is that I have regarded him as a senior from the beginning, I haven't thought about anything else, it's been more than ten years, it's impossible." ”

Li Xin was stunned, she suddenly wanted to connect these two people today, because she saw someone's mind clearly, and she saw her own mind clearly, but Fang Miao said with such certainty that the two of them had no play, but it made her not know whether to cry or laugh.

"Sister Xin, it's green light, it's time to go. Fang Miao looked at her in a daze, so she reminded.

Li Xin reacted at this time, stepped on the accelerator, and the car continued to drive forward.

Fang Miao next to her looked at her with strange eyes, and Li Xin was still immersed in the incident just now, and didn't notice the gaze of the people next to her at all.

When she arrived at the community, Fang Miao got out of the car first, and said goodbye to the people in the car through the window, Li Xin didn't go first, her eyes passed through the dark night, and seeing Fang Miao walk inside, she started the car and turned the head of the car to drive back, hiding an inexplicable emotion in her heart.

The time for the first trial of the "Poplar case" was set for 10 o'clock in the morning, and at half past eight o'clock, Fang Miao and Meng Chaoge had already arrived at the law firm, brought the materials sorted out in advance, and quickly rushed to the court to make sure that there were no omissions.

There was no serious traffic jam on the road, and there was still more than half an hour to go to court when she arrived at the court, because the opponent was the "devil's tongue", and because of the lesson from the last time, Fang Miao had palpitations, she looked through the information repeatedly, and waited patiently with a long sigh of relief.

Because the case has attracted a lot of attention, the auditorium was full of people at the beginning of the trial, and Fang Miao didn't have time to observe them one by one, but at a glance, he could see the three people sitting in the front row - Bai Huiwen, Li Xin, and Han Junchi.

They were cheering themselves up, and Fang Miao smiled back.

And in the last row of the auditorium, there was another person who kept an eye on her.

The prosecution and the defense stood face to face at a distance, and the solemn atmosphere was full of gunsmoke, and it was not until the presiding judge took his seat that the two took their seats.

In view of the defendant's physical inability to attend the trial, the relevant evidence of the case has been identified in advance.

Immediately afterward, a heated debate officially began.

is not wrong as expected, Song Siming's entry point is mainly that the defendant entered the scene of the crime with a knife, which is enough to prove that there is a clear motive for murder.

Next, it was the turn of the witness Zhou Yan to appear in court, and the prosecution routinely interrogated questions related to the case, which did not differ from the previous testimony.

Fang Miao began to ask questions, she projected a few photos on the screen, "In addition to the bloody murder weapon at the scene of the crime, a completely broken mobile phone was also found under the sofa, which has been proved to belong to the deceased. Miss Zhou, can you tell me how this was caused?"

Chen Yifeng's mobile phone fell out halfway, and in the process of their fight, the mobile phone was kicked and stepped on many times before it was broken. Zhou Yan replied calmly.

"Then what is your attitude towards the dead, hatred or liking?"

"We've broken up, and I just have a do-away-like attitude towards him. ”

Fang Miao hooked her lips and picked up a pack of several mobile phones wrapped in film: "These are the two mobile phones I found in the deceased's personal residence, which contain videos of his interactions with different girls before his death, and it has been confirmed by his friends that the deceased has a special habit of shooting such videos." ”

Such a sensitive and indecent information shocked the audience.

Song Siming: "Objection, the evidence provided by the defense has nothing to do with the case!"

Presiding Judge: "Defender, please get straight to the point. ”

Fang Miao bowed, turned to Zhou Yan, and raised her voice: "Witness, may I ask if you ever had sex with the deceased?"

Zhou Yan's face changed slightly, and the hand on the witness stand rubbed as if it were nothing, in Fang Miao's opinion, he was just trying his best to suppress his anger.

"Against, this is an insult to our witnesses. Song Siming stood up again.

Fang Miao turned her head to look at him without hurrying, "It's not an insult, it's to confirm the credibility of the witness's testimony." ”

The auditorium was shallow.

The presiding judge tapped the gavel, "Witness, you can refuse to answer the defender's question." ”

Zhou Yan looked directly at Fang Miao and said slowly, "No, I didn't have sex with the deceased. ”

When the words fell, she saw Fang Miao's eyes fall silent, and the next moment, she was shocked by what she said!

"Presiding Judge, on the two mobile phones I submitted, there are real videos of the deceased interacting with witnesses, the most recent video was taken a week before the crime, and the authenticity of the video can be verified by the prosecution at any time. Fang Miao calmly finished speaking, faced the witness stand, and pointed to the point: "The photos taken at the scene of the crime show that the things on the coffee table did not fall to the ground, so can the witnesses specifically describe what happened at that time, and how the mobile phone and memory card were completely broken?"

Zhou Yan was stared at by her like this, speechless, she suddenly understood that the questions asked before this were all for the purpose of preparing for the present, and the purpose was to force her to have no way out, and she could no longer even be a witness from the sidelines!

Zhou Yan stood up and said word by word, "It was I who broke the phone and destroyed the memory card." She met Fang Miao's scorching gaze, and in the midst of the discussion on the field, she continued: "Chen Yifeng threatened me with this, so I destroyed the phone after he was stabbed unconscious, but even if it was like this, I wouldn't and couldn't kill him!"

Fang Miao always smiled, looked at Zhou Yan for a few seconds, and walked to the center of the trial, "The witness testimony is suspected of concealment, in order to determine whether he is lying, apply for the temporary cancellation of the witness's identity, and conduct a professional polygraph to ensure the defendant's procedural rights and interests." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a gasp in the silent courtroom, although Fang Miao's defense could not refute the testimony most directly and effectively, but it also made Zhou Yan's witness identity shaken.

In the last row of the auditorium, Yan Zheng's thin lips hooked an arc, got up and left.

Due to the emergence of new evidence, Zhou Yan's testimony has yet to be investigated, and the verdict of the first instance has not been issued, and the second trial is scheduled for the middle of next month, which has temporarily reversed the situation, which is great news for Fang Miao.

Fang Miao and Bai Huiwen explained a few words before leaving the court, and as soon as they went out, they saw Li Xin and the others waiting outside.

Can't hold back her excitement, she quickly jumped down the last few steps, hugged them one by one, and when she finally looked at Han Junchi, she paused, stretched out her fist and gently punched him, and then gave him a hug.

Not far away, Yan Zheng just got into the car, put his right hand on the central control, and subconsciously looked up ahead, and the hug was taken into his eyes by him.

The feeling is very complicated, unprecedented, but it is not very profound, and the pain cannot be clearly felt, it is only regret, regret that the relationship between them has ended in moderation.

He sat in the car, his thin lips lightly furled, and his voice was very soft, as if to say it to himself: "Congratulations." ”

A few seconds after the words fell, the mobile phone vibrated and it was from the consulting office, and the assistant in the Bluetooth headset was reporting work, during which Zhou Yan was mentioned, and he crossed the parking line with the steering wheel and got on the asphalt road.

After hugging Han Junchi for a long time, Fang Miao heard the sound of the car engine starting, and subconsciously followed the sound source, but only saw a vacant parking space, thinking that he had been too nervous recently, and his nerves were so sensitive.

Yan Zheng returned to the consultation office and saw Zhou Yan suddenly in the office.

The second consultation was originally scheduled for next Friday, but she suddenly advanced, Yan Zheng was a little surprised, but she could guess the reason.

"Sorry, waited a long time, right?" Yan Zheng asked with a smile as he sat down on the soft chair.

Zhou Yan shook his head, his face was not good, and he pondered for a long time before asking, "What happened to me...... Did Dr. Yan find out?"

Yan Zheng was stunned, he didn't expect her to mention it, stared at Zhou Yan for a moment, and nodded.

She lowered her head instantly, tried to open her mouth, and couldn't say what she wanted to say.

"You don't have to embarrass yourself, I'm a psychiatrist, and after learning about the incident, I can figure out the patient's thoughts. Yan Zheng turned around and took the paper cup, poured a glass of water in front of the water dispenser and pushed it in front of Zhou Yan, he leaned on the edge of the table, "There is a criminal case, in fact, no one can treat themselves as an outsider, you use selective amnesia to deal with people outside, innocence or victimization are all excuses for your self-brainwashing, you not only tell yourself like this, but also tell others, but you forget one thing, even if your logic is good, but if you say too much, your language organization skills will expose you to the clues." ”

Zhou Yan raised his head to look at him suddenly, with the anger on his face after his heart was exposed, and the struggle that he didn't want to admit it, under the collision of the two emotions, his face became distorted and ugly.

As a psychiatrist, he should have been infinitely tolerant and comfortable with his patients, but at this moment, Yan Zheng didn't feel that there was anything wrong with violating professional norms, he was a doctor, and there was nothing wrong with curing patients, and there was nothing wrong with doing so!

"I went to the trial. His eyes were pale and short, and the words were self-evident.

Zhou Yan avoided his gaze, "I didn't lie, even the fingerprints on the murder weapon were his, I just concealed those dirty things, was I wrong?"

She stood up in an agitated voice, her voice raised high, as if trying to hide what she had just heard.

"I don't have the right to judge anyone right or wrong. In the face of her agitation, Yan Zheng calmed down too much, and there was a hint of cunning in his eyes: "You have been brainwashing yourself in this way, but ask yourself, do you believe it? If you can convince yourself, then you will not come here after the end of the trial." ”
