Chapter 37: One Step Away
In order to cope with the upcoming trial, Fang Miao began to work overtime for several days.
"Did you get the surveillance video?" asked Fang Miao as she flipped through her testimony.
Meng Chaoge put the USB flash drive on the table, not very motivated: "It's all here, although this video can't directly prove that Baiyang has a motive to kill, but if it is connected with other evidence that the prosecution has obtained, it will be very troublesome." ”
Fang Miao took the USB flash drive and plugged it into the computer port, "You don't have to worry about this, it's not early, you can go back." ”
It's really so engrossed in work that I stare at the screen when I speak.
Seeing this, Meng Chaoge sighed, gently took the door and walked out of the law firm.
As soon as she arrived at the bus stop, her mobile phone rang.
I thought it was Fang Miao looking for her to go back again, but in fact, it was Meng Chaoge who thought too much.
"Hey, Dr. Yan. ”
"Hasn't the law firm gotten off work yet?" Yan Zheng untied his apron to look at the time.
Meng Chaoge turned around and glanced at the window that lit up not far away, unable to explain: "Usually speaking, it is indeed off work, but there is a case that is very urgent right now, and Miao Miao has to work overtime again." ”
Yan Zheng's movements froze, and he didn't know what to say.
"Don't worry, I supervised her before leaving after dinner. Regarding the purpose of this phone call, Meng Chaoge is still very clear.
Yan Zheng responded in a low voice and didn't ask any more.
"When the bus arrived, I won't talk about it yet. ”
Ending the call, Yan Zheng stared at the screen blankly for a while, a thought struggling back and forth in his heart, and his fingertips hesitated to click on a certain name.
After weighing left and right, it was still impossible to dial in the end.
Da Rongrong finished eating the little yellow croaker in the bowl, and was looking up at him expectantly.
Yan Zheng clasped his hands around his chest and confronted the big cat: "You are a cat, not a pig, you are fat after eating so much." ”
Da Rongrong instantly squinted in displeasure to reveal a hint of warning, and walked to the window with noble steps.
A dinner was the first time that Yan Zheng felt so tasteless.
After washing the dishes and chopsticks, Yan Zheng went out to throw out the garbage as planned, and when he lifted the garbage bag, his eyes inadvertently swept from it, like a flashing hallucination, he noticed the white medicine bottle.
He took the bottle out, and the description of the bottle gave him another headache.
Chlorpromazine hydrochloride tablets, used for the treatment of schizophrenia, mania or other psychotic disorders, can indeed play a role in inhibiting the condition, but the split personality can not be cured with drugs, if it is taken for a long time, the side effects are immeasurable.
"It's really disobedient, how can this medicine be taken casually!" Yan Zheng muttered to himself, and the strength of holding the medicine bottle slowly tightened.
Combined with Fang Miao's mental state during this time, it should be that the drug has worked, even if it is, it is difficult to maintain it for a long time, and even worse, it may arouse the revenge and destruction psychology of the successor personality, and in the long run, the situation is not optimistic.
"It seems necessary to find an opportunity to talk to her. His deep eyes were clouded, and the medicine bottle was put away by him, as if it had never been discovered.
In the quiet night, the light by the window reflected the shadows of the trees, the breeze blew, the leaves swayed, Yan Zheng stood there, thinking about the next treatment method and progress, the copper coin grass swayed with the wind from time to time, and the faint light of the living room added a bit of mystery to him.
He admits that he is not the best psychiatrist, and has never encountered a patient who is difficult to treat since he practiced, and Fang Miao's appearance broke this record.
Perhaps, from the moment he approached her without any resistance or hesitation, the balanced doctor-patient relationship was destined to be unbalanced......
With the arrival of a new day as scheduled, Fang Miao survived the most difficult night, still found nothing, and the worst thing is that reality can always make people feel at a loss again and again.
"Recently, the young owner of Zhongxin Real Estate seems to be taking the initiative to contact Song Siming's side, and I checked that it has nothing to do with this case, but Chen Yifeng's private residence is their family's property, and it should be a year before the development is completed. ”
Fang Miao finished drinking coffee and took Meng Chaoge's personal information about Chen Yin, there was nothing worth studying, mainly because the intertwined relationship made her a little unbearable.
"If you think about it from another angle, this Chen Yin should not have mastered anything that can be called evidence, otherwise it would be impossible for his testimony to be absent from yesterday's notice. Meng Chaoge finished his words slowly, trying to think about the benefits.
Hearing this, Fang Miao twisted her eyebrows and shook her head: "The court is changing rapidly, and there are not a few examples of new witnesses appearing during the verdict, Chen Yin did not provide testimony, there are two possibilities, one, as you said, he and Song Siming may be in private contact and have nothing to do with the case......; ”
"You mean?" Meng Chaoge hung up in one breath, half-up and down in his throat, and jumped excitedly the next second: "By the way, I also inquired about the place where they met tonight." ”
Fang Miao glanced at the business card, it was a five-star hotel, and at the same time secretly sighed that it had changed a lot, in 6 years, Song Siming had not only "grown" in the means of fighting lawsuits, but even his assets were not comparable to ordinary people.
Just as Fang Miao was thinking about it, he heard Meng Chaoge say in a low voice: "I also found out another thing that is indirectly related to this person, and I also have something to do with Doctor Yan." ”
Looking at her expression, Fang Miao's intuition was not a good thing, and after thinking about it again, the case was more important at the moment.
……
Ten minutes later, Fang Miao was finally the only one left in the office, and her eyes were complicated as she stared at the mobile phone on the table.
Some choices are often made in the middle of a thought, and behind this thought, it is not only thoughtful, but also a violent struggle brought about by the pull of the mind.
A few minutes passed, and Fang Miao made a decision with a heart.
As soon as Yan Zheng arrived at the psychological clinic, his mobile phone buzzed and vibrate.
"Hey, it's me. ”
"Well, I know. ”
Fang Miao was uneasy, and grabbed his words: "Do you have time after work today?"
Yan Zheng looked at the list of patient numbers and replied, "Yes." ”
"You have taken such good care of me during this time, and in return, I want to treat you to dinner, I wonder if I can appreciate my face?" Fang Miao sweated for herself.
The reason is sufficient, Yan Zheng did not refuse.
"I'll send you the address in a moment, and I'll see you at 7 p.m. Fang Miao finished speaking with a smile, almost impressed by his ability to make excuses.
I've got a dinner invitation and I'm waiting for tonight.
Song Siming and Chen Yin made an appointment to talk about things in the box, and in order to create an opportunity for a coincidence, Fang Miao was bleeding profusely and set a nearby box.
"I wish me success tonight. Before leaving work, she prayed to the copper coin grass.
According to the agreement, the two arrived at the door of the hotel at about the same time.
They hadn't seen each other for two days, and Yan Zheng inadvertently glanced at Fang Miao a few more times.
Entering the hotel, he was led to the box by the waiter, on the way, Fang Miao talked surprisingly much, Yan Zheng should say a few words from time to time, and secretly considered taking medicine tonight.
Undoubtedly, they have their own agendas.
Coincidentally, this kind of thing can never be controlled by humans, in the plan, Fang Miao originally planned to pretend to say hello to Song Siming, and take the opportunity to take Yan Zheng into their box, but it backfired.
Chen Yin came early, and the box was close, and it was like this, in the corridor, the three of them had an unexpected collision.
Fang Miao hadn't noticed the appearance of this person yet, but Chen Yin's eyes were sharp, and at the moment when he passed by, he suddenly turned back in two steps and walked straight to Yan Zheng to stop.
Fang Miao reacted later, and saw that Chen Yin's face changed from doubt to surprise when he saw Yan Zheng, and he said excitedly: "Yo, Mr. Yan." ”
Yan Zheng frowned slightly, and there was no such person in his search memory: "You are?"
Chen Yin hurriedly took out his business card from his jacket pocket and offered it with both hands: "You definitely don't know me, I have had a work relationship with Miss Yan Rong before, and I have seen your photos from her." ”
Yan Zheng, who is polite and polite to everyone, naturally will not refuse his deliberate behavior at this moment, and a slight bow is considered a response.
"Mr. Yan is also here for dinner?" If you want to say that the businessman is the most clever, a few words, Chen Yin's eyes have already wandered around the two of them.
"Yes, with friends. ”
Chen Yin was looking at Fang Miao at this time, and thought thoughtfully: "Could this be the lawyer Fang who reported not long ago?"
Fang Miao nodded with no expression, his intuition was that this move was wrong, he temporarily changed his plan, and was about to open his mouth to invite a meal, when he was interrupted by an abrupt voice not far away.
"Yo, Mr. Chen, I'm late. Song Siming also arrived at this time, seemingly greeting, but in fact, Yu Guang always paid attention to Fang Miao's behavior.
really responded to that sentence - it is better to come early than to come by chance, Song Siming will really grasp the opportunity, so it is effortless to make the fat in the opponent's mouth fly.
"It's my morning, let's go in and talk about it. Chen Yin smiled flatteringly, and before leaving, he rarely remembered to greet Yan Zheng and them.
In this situation, no matter how excited Fang Miao was, there was no reason to stop Chen Yin, just based on his flattering appearance towards Song Siming, it was not difficult to find that this person had fallen to the devil's tongue.
"Rice, do you still want to eat?" There was no one else in the corridor, Yan Zheng no longer pretended, but he didn't want to find out.
Fang Miao didn't have the courage to face her, and couldn't say a word for a long time.
And Yan Zheng has always been gentle with people, even if he saw through tonight's scene, he tried his best to restrain herself and not scare her.
There seems to be a fuse hidden in the air, which can be ignited at any time, and in the dull atmosphere, all bad emotions are infinitely magnified.
Fang Miao pursed her lips, her gaze moved up inch by inch, and she was about to blurt out the words of apology that had been brewing several times in the man's deep eyes, but was interrupted by the sudden ringing of the bell.
Yan Zheng took out his mobile phone, went around to the side to connect it, listened to him quickly respond a few times, and finally said, "I'll come over right away."
Putting down the phone, he walked back to her and said patiently: "I'll go first, you go back early to rest." ”
Seeing the figure of him leaving disappear at the entrance of the elevator, Fang Miao's heart sank endlessly, standing in place for a long time, and his heart was so depressed that he was about to vomit bitter water.
On the premise that there are only two choices, she is conflicted, she struggles, but since she is a defense lawyer, she is not just a simple individual.
She can't, can't gamble with reputation, whether it's Poplar's, or her own.
——
A depressed patient whom Yan Zheng was in charge of treating suddenly committed suicide and was given a sedative before he was sent home safely.
At 9 o'clock, Yan Zheng drove to Jiang Xingzhou's house for the night.
"Why are you alone? Big Cat isn't together?" After getting along with Da Rongrong for two days, Jiang Xingzhou was not as resistant as he was at first, and even a little worried.
Yan Zheng took off his coat, leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes: "I am simply passing by, and I will come to you for one night." ”
"Heh!" Jiang Xingzhou snorted disdainfully and handed him water, "Look at your moldy appearance, have you been swept away by other girls?"
"You think I'm going to be so embarrassed?" he automatically ignored the other meaning of the sentence.
Jiang Xingzhou took a sip of wine and said vaguely: "Don't play stupid with me, I told you a long time ago that you should treat patients with proportion, haven't you always grasped it well?"
Yan Zheng kept his mouth shut and didn't answer, but his flipped mind was difficult to control.
"To a certain extent, it's not a heinous crime to like your own patients, if it's really Lang's intention to have a concubine, why wouldn't it be a good thing to be together?" Jiang Xingzhou put down his wine glass, took out a cigarette from his pocket, bit one in his mouth, and just lit the fire, he was strangled by someone's cold eyes.
"Seriously, this has to be considered in the long run. ”
"Then how can you tell if the concubine is intentional?" Yan Zheng suddenly asked.
"It's too simple, you test ......" Jiang Xingzhou was just about to pass on his experience, and he had already gotten up and went to the second floor.
"Huh, don't listen?"
After taking a shower, Yan Zheng lay on the bed, first made a video call to Yan Rong, and after explaining some things, he began to think about messing up, and his memory was full of the scene in the corridor tonight.
That kind of experience was like being taken advantage of without knowing it, and what he cared about most was Fang Miao's impassivity, even if she mentioned it a little before she came, they wouldn't be like this.
Perhaps, after knowing each other for so long, there is always a step between them.
