14 Go on a blind date
When Xiao Mubai returned home after handling the work of the police force, he found his adoptive father and mother still at home, and asked in surprise, "What's the situation? Why are you still here?"
"Oh, we've decided to stay here for a while. Xiao's mother was watching TV, and when she heard Xiao Mubai's voice, she glanced back at him, and quickly moved her eyes to the TV.
"Why are you staying here?" asked Xiao Mubai.
"What else can I do, of course, for my daughter-in-law. Gu Mingsheng said with a smile.
"Your daughter-in-law?" Xiao Mubai said in surprise, stood in front of the TV to block it after speaking, and asked solemnly: "Did you give birth to another son behind my back?"
Because Xiao Mubai blocked the TV, Gu Mingsheng and Xiao's mother moved to the right at the same time and continued to watch TV, Gu Mingsheng replied while watching: "How come, isn't your daughter-in-law my daughter-in-law?"
"I don't have a daughter-in-law. Xiao Mubai said seriously.
"It's just that you don't have it, you're thirty years old this year, and you don't work hard. Referring to this question, Xiao's mother looked at Xiao Mubai and said.
"Yes, your mother and I are very satisfied with Lawyer Lin as our daughter-in-law, and we just bought a house near her house today, and your mother and I will move over there in a few days, communicate with Lawyer Lin more, and strive to make you get married this year. Gu Mingsheng said with a smile on his face.
After talking about it for a long time, Xiao Mubai realized that the old couple of them regarded Lin Manshu as a prospective daughter-in-law. This really made Xiao Mubai cry and laugh.
"Didn't I say that? People have boyfriends. Xiao Mubai retried helplessly.
"It's okay, you don't have to have a bad boyfriend, often walk around her, start with friends first, there is still hope. Gu Mingsheng said.
"Are you asking me to be a junior?" Xiao Mubai asked.
"The written language is a lover. Xiao's mother interjected.
"Oops...... It's really speechless, you are people of decades, how can you be so open, oops, it's really sad. ”
Xiao Mubai went back to his room as he spoke, not wanting to continue talking to them. But since they decided to stay, they will inevitably harass Lin Manshu in the future, and today is the matter, should they make a phone call to apologize?
"What should I say?" Xiao Mubai returned to the room and began to think about calling Lin Manshu.
"Hey, hello, I'm Xiao Mubai, I'm sorry for today's events......" Xiao Mubai sat on the bed, and began to organize the language and adjust the tone on the mobile phone, looking very formal.
"No, that's not good, it's too formal, do you want to be casual?"
Saying that, he changed his casual tone again: "It's me, Xiao Mubai." Isn't there an old couple who went to your office today, I'm really sorry, in fact, they are my parents, haha......"
"No, no, I don't know if they said anything embarrassing, so don't say it. Xiao Mubai denied the way just now.
Just when Xiao Mubai was struggling to call to say something to Lin Manshu, the mobile phone rang suddenly, and when he picked it up, he saw that it was Lin Manshu's number.
"Mom yes......" I don't know whether to be excited or surprised the moment I saw the number, Xiao Mubai actually threw the phone on the bed.
"What to do? I haven't figured out what to say, how could she call. Xiao Mubai looked a little at a loss.
"Stinky boy, whoever called, quickly answered, noisy to death. The mobile phone kept ringing, alarming Gu Mingsheng, who was watching TV in the living room, and he shouted.
"It's Lawyer Lin's phone number. Xiao Mubai said.
"Then why are you still stunned, why don't you take it quickly. Gu Mingsheng's voice sounded even more excited than Xiao Mubai.
"But I don't know what to say?" Xiao Mubai said, picking up his phone as he spoke, and it seemed that he was about to pick it up.
"Say you like her. Gu Mingsheng's voice came into Xiao Mubai's room again.
"This old man, really, has a bad idea. After speaking, Xiao Mubai connected the phone with Lin Manshu.
"Are you busy?" Lin Manshu's voice came from the other end of the phone, and she knew that she was a cold person when she heard the voice.
"Not busy, is there something wrong?" Xiao Mubai asked.
"Come to my house tomorrow night. Lin Manshu said.
"Huh?" Xiao Mubai was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Oh, but it's not convenient to go at night." ”
"There's nothing inconvenient, Shen Lingshan also came over, let's discuss the case together. Lin Manshu said, she was sitting on the bed and calling Xiao Mubai.
"Ah, oh, yes, okay, I'll be over after work tomorrow. Xiao Mubai said.
"Good. Lin Manshu hung up the phone after finishing speaking, she really didn't say a single superfluous word.
After Lin Manshu hung up the phone, Xiao Mubai slapped his head and said, "If the night passes, the night will pass, what dirty things were you thinking about just now? It's really embarrassing to say that it's inconvenient." ”
After teaching himself, Xiao Mubai lay down on the bed with remorse, it seemed that he had just misunderstood Lin Manshu's words of "come to my house tomorrow night", and thought of something unspeakable.
The next night, the four met at Lin Manshu's house, a conference room that had been converted and was next to the living room on the first floor. In the middle of the conference room is a rectangular table decorated with flowers, flanked by comfortable chairs, and at the very front of the table is a white magnetic chalkboard with some case information written on it.
Xiao Mubai was the last to arrive, and after he came in, he said, "I'm sorry, I'm late, I went to get this." As he spoke, he gave the file bag in his hand to the other three.
"This is ......," Shen Lingshan asked after closing the portfolio.
"Footprint comparative analysis. I sent the footprints of the suspects Liu Maoguo and Zhang Jiahong to the technical department to compare them with the footprints found at the scene, and this is the result of the analysis. Xiao Mubai replied, at this time he had already sat down in his seat, just sitting opposite Lin Manshu.
While Xiao Mubai was speaking, the other three had already taken out the documents in the file bag to check them, and after reading them, Xiao Hanyu said, "It doesn't match." ”
"It's really ......" Shen Lingshan replied, and said to Lin Manshu: "This level can be regarded as evidence." ”
"Hmm. Lin Manshu nodded and said, "Tomorrow I will apply to the court for a retrial of the case." ”
"But can the court agree to a retrial?" asked Xiao Hanyu with some concern.
"The sensation was so great that they had to be retried. Lim replied that she could tell from her answer that she was confident in pushing forward with the retrial process.
Next, the four of them did it together to sort out the case again, share the information of the investigation in the past few days, and put forward some new investigation directions.
The lights in the conference room were soft, and the lights in the living room were on, but there was no one there, and the sound of discussion could be heard from the meeting room in the living room. The clock kept moving, and now it was pointing to twelve o'clock. From the window, it was pitch black, and it was empty when you left the villa, only the lights in the villa suggested that the people here had not yet slept.
"Wow, this case is too tricky, there is no evidence. It was Shen Lingshan who was speaking now, with a hint of irritability in her tone, and threw the pen on the table, a little tired.
"It's not that there is no evidence, it's that it's been too long, and the valid evidence has disappeared. Lin Manshu said.
When she said this, Xiao Mubai and Shen Lingshan were a little embarrassed, after all, the case was out of their hands, and it was also their responsibility not to investigate the truth of the case.
Early the next morning, Lin Manshu went to the court to apply for a retrial of the case. As a well-known lawyer and a winning general in the legal profession, Lin Manshu's first case in City B will naturally attract attention. In addition, this case is another sensational murder case of the top student in the college entrance examination a year ago, so it is natural that it will be paid attention to by various media.
The news of Lin Manshu's visit to the courthouse quickly spread, and by the time she got out of the courthouse, there were already a bunch of reporters waiting outside, and after seeing her, they surrounded her inside.
"Lawyer Lin, why did you represent this case? Did you collect money to help the suspect clear his name?"
"According to people familiar with the matter, the two suspects were wronged, is this statement true?"
"I heard that I have obtained tangible evidence, can you reveal one or two?"
"Lawyer Lin has never lost a case, how sure are you in this case?"
“……”
As soon as Lin Manshu came out, she heard the reporters asking questions, but Lin Manshu did not answer any of these questions. Just take care of yourself and move forward.
"The murder case of the top student in the college entrance examination, which caused a sensation in the city a year ago, was raised again, and it was suspected that it was an unjust, false and wrongful case. It is reported that Lin Manshu, the lawyer representing the criminal suspect, has applied to the court for a retrial. ”
Lin Manshu has just filed an application for a retrial, and the matter has been reported on the news, and the background is the scene of Lin Manshu coming out of the court.
"Wow, she finally took on this case, it's really ......" Chen Li sighed when he saw the news.
"Lin Manshu, this name is a bit familiar. Ren Tao, the captain of the Criminal Team 3, said, just when his eyes turned to Xiao Mubai's body, he suddenly remembered, pointed at him and said, "Ah~ That's the lawyer, who dumped you." ”
"I didn't get dumped. Xiao Mubai was very unhappy when he heard the word dumped, and immediately retorted.
"Don't people have boyfriends? That's being dumped. Ren Tao said seriously, walked over and patted Xiao Mubai's shoulder, and said: "Falling out of love is not a big deal, just come out early, so let's introduce you to another one, it is a people's teacher, see you this weekend." ”
Xiao Mubai looked at Ren Tao with a wry smile and asked, "Captain, how did your relatives give birth to a daughter?" It's been almost a year since I came here, and you introduce us to one every week, how can we still have resources?"
"Oops, stinky boy. Ren Tao said and picked up the documents on the table, patted Xiao Mubai, and nagged: "It's because none of you are motivated, the boss is not small, and he doesn't even have a girlfriend." If this continues, let's not call it the criminal team 3, but the singles team. ”
Then he said, "Also, this time it's not my relative, it's the daughter of the sister of a friend of your sister-in-law's colleague." ”
"Captain, don't be a policeman, go be a matchmaker. Xiao Mubai immediately ran away after speaking, because he was afraid of being beaten.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Ren Tao immediately became angry and said, "Stinky boy, come back to me......"
"I can't go back, it's time to go to a meeting, I'm two minutes late. Xiao Mubai showed his head from the door frame and said mischievously.
