Chapter 24: Extraordinary Means
Coming out of the court, Tang Yi said that he wanted to go to the scene to have a look, so he was going to help An Jiujiu call a car to send her back.
An Jiujiu refused: "Lawyer Tang, I want to go with you." ”
Tang Yi frowned when he heard this, and his gaze fell on her ankle: "But your feet ......"
"It's okay," An Jiujiu lied from Shanruliu: "The doctor said that he has almost recovered, and this little distance should be fine." ”
Hearing An Jiujiu say this, Tang Yi didn't insist, but just advised: "If you are tired, sit down and rest, don't force yourself." ”
An Jiujiu nodded obediently.
Tang Yi looked at her well-behaved like a rabbit, and couldn't help but pull his lower lip slightly, but the smile had already dissipated before he could reach his eyes.
"Get in the car. ”
The village where Shen Jian and Wang Peng lived was north of Jiangcheng, and it took about an hour to drive there.
Tang Yi is obviously not a person who talks a lot, except for asking An Jiujiu which CD he wants to listen to when he got in the car, he didn't say anything else.
An Jiujiu is most afraid of being quiet in the car, because she can't help but feel sleepy when she is quiet, but she can't sleep in front of her boss, so she can only forcibly pull the topic: "Lawyer Tang, what did you say about that witness?"
It is understandable that the court wants to protect witnesses, but it is very rare for witnesses not to appear even at the time of the trial.
Tang Yi said lightly: "Under special circumstances, incapacitated persons can not appear in court. ”
Incapacitated persons usually refer to two kinds of people, one is a child under the age of eight, and the other is a mentally ill person who is completely unable to distinguish his own behavior, and the testimony of the second type of person will certainly not be accepted by the court, so ......
"You mean, the witness is likely to be a child?"
Seeing that An Jiujiu had kept up with his thinking so quickly, Tang Yi nodded with a little satisfaction, and then added, "The family next door to Shen Jian has a seven-year-old child. ”
"That's right. ”
An Jiujiu thought thoughtfully, it seemed that most of the witnesses referred to by the court were this child.
"I've checked before, and the residential building where Shen Jian lives is very simple, and there is only one toilet on the first floor. ”
An Jiujiu immediately understood what he meant: "So that kid probably got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, and just happened to bump into Wang Peng leaving from Shen Jian's house?"
"It's possible. ”
Anjiujiu couldn't help but hold his cheeks and fall into deep thought.
If that kid didn't lie, then the direction of this case would really be very unfavorable to Wang Peng.
Eyewitnesses, tools for committing the crime, traces of the scene, everything is complete, so how can they help Wang Peng overturn the case? Or in other words, is Wang Peng lying, or is there really something complicated about this case?
An Jiujiu couldn't help but mutter, "If only I could see that eyewitness." ”
"Yes. ”
An Jiujiu was stunned: "What?"
Tang Yi patiently explained: "You said that the eyewitness, we should be able to meet tomorrow." ”
An Jiujiu opened his mouth: "It's not that the court wants to protect witnesses......"
Tang Yi's expression was faint: "So we have to take some extraordinary measures." ”
An Jiujiu's eyes widened, and his face was full of curiosity: "For example?"
"Looking for Lao Ji. ”
Anjiu Wine: "......"
This is an extraordinary means.
Tang Yi looked at her pouting, and couldn't help but hook his lower lip again: "By the way, you haven't seen Lao Ji yet, right?"
“……”
Is it okay to see the big from a young age?
"Lao Ji doesn't look reliable, but he has a very smart brain and a wide range of ways, so it's perfect for him to do this kind of chores. ”
An Jiujiu was happy when he heard this, it turned out that Ji Nanyin's guy was actually a handyman?
However, Tang Yi's next sentence instantly made her unable to laugh: "But don't offend him, because the founding funds of this law firm are all from him, and I am only a technical shareholder, so in the final analysis, the real big boss of the law firm is still him." ”
Anjiu Wine: "......"
What if you've been offended for 18 years? Is it too late to regret it now?
-
Xingyue Village.
Tang Yi and An Jiujiu bumped around for a long time, and finally arrived at the residential building where Shen Jianzhu lived.
An Jiujiu originally thought that there had been an accident in this building, even if the residents inside did not move to live elsewhere, at least they would become more cautious and would not open the doors and windows easily, but they didn't expect that these people were like they had nothing to do.
Although it is not lively, at least it is full of fireworks.
An Jiujiu couldn't help but feel puzzled: "Don't these people feel taboo?"
Tang Yi glanced at her: "You haven't been in the countryside, have you?"
Anjiujiu shook his head.
"It's normal to die in the countryside or something, everyone gets together for a two-day banquet during the ceremony, even if the dead are memorialized, and when the people are buried, they go back to their respective homes, what should they do, what are the taboos?"
An Jiujiu was dumbfounded, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence.
"But this is a homicide, not a normal death......
"What about the murder? In their opinion, the murderer has been caught, so what is there to worry about?"
Anjiujiu was choked and speechless, and it seems to be the same when you think about it.
"Let's go, go up and have a look," Tang Yi took the lead in taking two steps, suddenly remembered something, and turned his head back to look at her: "Can you go upstairs with your feet?"
"Yes. ”
"If you're struggling, you can ......"
"Lawyer Tang, my feet are really fine. ”
"Okay. ”
Having said that, when he went upstairs, Tang Yi still subconsciously helped Anjiu to drink.
An Jiujiu couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart, although Tang Yi didn't like to talk much and was still a workaholic, but the gentlemanly demeanor and thoughtfulness he should have were not lost to any man.
If it weren't for the fact that the two had only known each other for a long time, she really wanted to ask Tang Yi if he had a girlfriend, and if not, she wouldn't mind introducing her dozen girlfriends to him.
The two went up to the second floor, and there happened to be a woman drying clothes in the corridor.
An Jiujiu stepped forward and asked, "Hello, may I ask if Shen Jian's family lives in the third household here?"
As soon as she heard Shen Jian's name, the woman's face instantly changed slightly, and she looked Tang Yi and An Jiujiu up and down several times before asking, "Are you from the court?"
"No, we are ......"
Without waiting for An Jiujiu to finish speaking, Tang Yi rushed in front of her and interrupted her: "We are from the inspection institute, come here and investigate the scene again." ”
An Jiujiu was slightly surprised in his heart, but he was smart not to talk much.
When the woman heard the three words of the procuratorate, her face softened a lot, and she stretched out her hand to point to a closed security door on the left: "Well, that's Shen Jianjia, but you should know that he usually lives alone, and there is no one at home after he dies, so you can only watch it outside." ”
"Thank you, we brought the keys over. ”
The woman was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and said, "Oh, that's fine. Then he added: "I have to cook, I won't tell you yet, you can see for yourself." After speaking, he turned around and walked into the house next door to Shen Jian.
An Jiujiu looked at her back, reacted in an instant, and turned his head to look at Tang Yi: "Isn't this the child's ......?"
"Well, this woman should be the mother of the child. ”
