Chapter 255: Memory Palace

Luo Jun was in high spirits, his face was red with excitement, and his eyes were filled with not only the joy of victory, but also madness and excitement.

As long as he can win, in what way and by what means, it doesn't seem to matter to him.

Seeing that he was so incorrigibly obsessed, Luo Youyou on the witness stand felt powerless and shook his head, letting the tears slide down his cheeks, which were becoming more and more pale from too much depression and pain.

Why didn't her dad understand?

Besides status and prospects, can't he see anything else in his eyes?

Now even she knows that even if she wins this lawsuit, her father will be defeated.

Luo Jun...... Even the entire Locke family can't escape the gossip of the outside world. The good reputation he had worked so hard to build in the past was destroyed by him himself.

Luo Jun didn't understand, he still didn't understand.

He didn't understand why the Lin family brothers and sisters would admit that they had lost the lawsuit, it was all to protect the baby daughter he once regarded as the pearl of his palm!

Father...... Why did he have to put such a gentle man to death......

"Dad, don't make mistakes again and again, are you so afraid of losing?" Luo Youyou shouted.

If there were no obstacles in front of him, I was afraid that Luo Jun would have rushed to his baby daughter by now, and it would be difficult to find a trace of reason from his fanatical eyes.

"Yoyo, tell the presiding judge that you saw their brother and sister stealing from your room, didn't you?"

Luo Jun couldn't wait to see the Lin family brothers and sisters lose so much that they cried and cried for their mother.

But many people are puzzled, and the defendants have already admitted that they have lost the case. Is there any point in him letting Luo Youyou testify again?

Luo Youyou shook her head in disappointment, indicating that she didn't know this man who was consumed by the desire for profit, lost his nature, and whose face was as distorted and ugly as his mentality......

She couldn't let her father continue to be wrong.

Taking a deep breath and swallowing the pain that welled up in his throat, Luo Youyou wiped away his tears, his still pale face was numb.

If only she could really become a puppet, so that she would not feel pain.

The amber eyes glittering with tears were not as clear as before, and they were covered in gloom and chaos, which made people feel distressed.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That's enough, Dad. I'm not going to give you false testimony. Luo Youyou stood on the witness stand. Face the judgment seat and suppress the guilt that keeps pouring out of your heart. Even if she had to endure more pain than this in the future, she would not help her father sin. She suppressed the tremor in her voice and stated firmly. "Honorable Judge. The defendant siblings did not steal anything from the room. The vase was missing five days after the feast, and I know it was taken by my father. As for the painting...... I burned it. ”

Luo Jun was stunned, his daughter actually helped outsiders deal with him!

He's done.

That's the end of the president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce?

He can't just leave it at that!

Luo Jun's eyes widened. As if he hated the Lin family's brothers and sisters, he was also angry at his daughter at this moment.

He shouted to the presiding judge: "Presiding judge, don't believe her words, I know my daughter, I know she is lying!" She was giving false testimony to the defendant! He shouted at Luo Youyou, "Didn't I tell you to stay at home, who let you come out!" ”

"All stand up." Presiding Judge Jiang read out the verdict that had already been prepared: "This court declares that the human and material evidence provided by the plaintiff is not true, and the defendant is not guilty of burglary......

Rao is Luo Jun is hoarse identification of the Lin family brothers and sisters as thieves, and he can't overshadow the majestic voice of Judge Jiang.

At the end of the trial, the defendants Lin brothers and sisters cleared their names, and the plaintiff Luo Jun was held legally responsible for the crime of falsifying evidence.

After leaving the courtroom and successfully avoiding reporters, Coriander and Coriander refused the warm invitation of the three Rong Ji and went straight home.

Although she won the lawsuit, Coriander did not feel the joy of victory, but her mood was indescribably complicated.

There were so many things that needed to be cleared up, and he couldn't control his frantic thoughts, but he knew where the crux of the contradictions that had made him so entangled-

Luo Youyou and coriander.

If Luo Youyou helped Luo Jun in court, he would be able to suppress his love for her more easily. In fact, she helped her siblings defeat her father.

Her beauty has exceeded his knowledge, but it is not only her appearance that fascinates coriander...... Thinking of the scene of Luo Youyou crying in the courtroom, Coriander's heart ached fiercely.

Before the pain in his heart could dissipate, another wave of frustration hit him, and the coriander shook Luo Youyou's delicate and pale face out of his head, and another weak figure broke inβ€”

Coriander's heroic posture in front of the plaintiff in court can be described as unmatched, and I have to admit that such a sister makes him feel very strange.

When did the weak little girl who used to hide behind him step in front of him?

His sister is so capable, why didn't he find out before?

While Coriander was busy dealing with firewood, rice, oil and salt in the kitchen, Coriander quietly went upstairs and got into her room.

Coriander's room really can't be compared with the boudoir of a rich daughter, but it is also clean and chic after she decorates it. The gauze curtain hanging from the bed is dreamy, the walls are covered with patterns made of floral cloth, and the cabinet is filled with cute puppets......

Everything was in order, except for the clutter on the table that was set up along the window, with paper, cloth and tools piled together, and a few heavy books pressed under the scissors.

Coriander removed the scissors, picked up a book and flipped through it, saw that there were many terms and conditions on the book, glanced at the cover of the book under his hand, and realized that both of them were books related to law, whether it was the one in his hand or the one under his hand.

It seems that Coriander has indeed done a lot of homework.

As an elder brother, except for telling a little lie in court, he failed to do even a substantive thing, let alone use these rules and regulations to refute those people's accusations. When Coriander was arguing with Luo Jun and them, all he could do was watch blankly.

When did coriander learn to read and when did she learn to draw. How can there be such an amazing memory......

He didn't know the answers to those questions.

"Brother, it's time to eat." Coriander shouted in the yard.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Here it comes. Coriander put down the book and decided to go down and ask Cilantro face to face.

Coriander brought the steamed porridge and mustard to the table, looking at the shabby meal, she really regretted it a little in her heart, "Eh, in fact, I should have gone to the celebration banquet with them to eat a big meal......

The "they" in the mouth of coriander are the three guys of Rongji.

Coriander is not very particular, but it also yearns for the delicacies of the rich family. But he was born with a poor tongue. I also feel fragrant when I eat coarse tea and light rice.

Now, he has no appetite.

He stirred the steaming thin rice in the bowl with chopsticks, his eyes drooping, and there was no expression on his face.

Cilantro teased him. "After eating for a few days, the second master of the vine asked someone to send you the delicacies of the mountains and seas. These coarse tea and light rice I made are not to your liking? ”

"My mouth is as tricky as yours." Coriander replied. Picked up the bowl and took a perfunctory sip of porridge.

Coriander may not have realized it, but Coriander found out, although his mouth is not as good as hers. Still good at it.

Coriander could see that he had something on his mind, and probably knew what he was worried about.

If he is left alone, he will definitely be alone.

Coriander wanted to guide him, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard Coriander ask:

"Have you finished reading all the books upstairs?"

Coriander suddenly felt very bad in the mouth, is it because the pickles have spoiled because of the heat?

She really couldn't play an ordinary role in front of her brother, and now she could only think about how to fool the past as his sister, and she must not let Coriander know that it was the soul of another era who lived in his sister's body.

Coriander replied casually: "I didn't finish reading it, so I watched some of it." ”

"Do you know all the words in the book?" Coriander remembers that they had discussed this before.

"I can't recognize everything, but I can read it more or less." Cilantro is telling the truth, many of the books are in traditional Chinese, and for her, who is used to using simplified characters, those obscure words have to be learned from scratch.

When their brother and sister were in their hometown, they did not have the conditions to receive cultural education, and both of them were illiterate. But unlike their brothers and sisters, their father Lin Sihai is half an intellectual and knows a lot of words.

When his father was still at home, the township chief personally invited him to teach in the school. At that time, Coriander was very proud to have such a father, but this feeling was gradually diluted by the influence of coriander on him.

When he first came to Shanghai, he remembered that Cilantro had said that she used to read the books that her father had left under the bed at home to teach herself Chinese characters. Unlike literary masterpieces, those books about the law are jerky and difficult to understand, but she can read them clearly, and she still learns and uses them in court?

"Why are you so literate......

"I'm probably the legendary genius." Coriander looked serious.

If others listen to this, they are likely to laugh at her for being shameless.

Coriander won't laugh at his sister, but he has an inferiority complex in his heart, he came out of the same mother's womb, and he is so much worse than Mao in terms of level? He kind of accepted that he couldn't.

What made him even more incredible was the memory of coriander.

"Why do you have such a good memory?" He knew that his sister was sometimes very diligent and sometimes lazy, but he never knew that she still had such a strength, "There were so many people who went to Locke's house for the banquet that night, and there were so many servants, how could you remember their faces?" ”

She remembered so many people's faces, and at first Coriander didn't believe it, but as a result, Coriander actually passed the test of the opposing defense lawyer in court, how could he not be surprised?

Before the trial, Coriander had a premonition that Luo Jun would do anything to win the lawsuit, but she just didn't want to lose so ugly so she made such preparations. If she loses faster, she won't have to open the box she handed over. Who would have thought that Luo Jun and his team of lawyers would be so unhelpful and live up to her expectations?

She didn't expect Coriander to not pursue this matter after the court, so she had already thought of a set of arguments.

"It's not hard to remember so many things at once. I saw a book in the library of the Lanpu Military Academy about training my memory, and I thought it was interestingβ€”"

Coriander's eyes flashed with curiosity, "You tell me about it." ”

"The book says that everyone can build a memory palace."

"Memory Palace?" Coriander was puzzled.

"The 'memory palace' is actually a metaphor, referring to a place that a person is familiar with and can easily remember, where we can store or retrieve information."

Listening to what Coriander said was very vivid, Coriander couldn't help but wonder if this would work, "So you can train it?" ”

Sounds easy......

Coriander spreads his hands, and he can't show his talents, so he can only show himself, "Aren't I a good example." The use of this memory palace can be traced back to a long time ago, when there was no printing press, and many things in books needed the brain to remember, and gradually this memory method was formed, which is also a bit similar to shallow self-hypnosis. ”

Coriander is a little jealous of the talent of coriander.

It seems that no matter what the real thing is, as soon as she touches it, she can immediately catch it.

The coriander god cursed at his head, "I want to remember, I want to remember, I want to remember, I want to remember......"

Coriander couldn't help but complain, "There is such a good thing, why didn't you share it with me earlier?" ”

"When I first saw it, I didn't believe it, and I didn't try it seriously, I thought I should use it in this lawsuit, so I tried it, I didn't think it would really work......" Coriander didn't want to continue to make up nonsense, so she simply changed the topic, "President Luo is finished this time, Luo Youyou didn't help her father commit perjury, and I don't know what happened to her now." ”

Coriander felt a pain in her heart, and an unbearable look flashed in her eyes, "Why did you admit that you lost the lawsuit at that time?" ”

He thought that with coriander's temper, he would fight with Luo Jun endlessly, so that he couldn't turn over.

Coriander held her face and smiled ambiguously, "That's because my brother has a crush on someone else's girl." ”

Coriander blushed, and muttered angrily: "What nonsense! ”

"Seeing Luo Youyou sad, you don't feel good in your heart." Coriander poked him.

Not only will it look uncomfortable, as long as he thinks of Luo Youyou's sad appearance, Coriander can't help but feel heartache.

Even if Luo Youyou doesn't look at him with colored eyes, he knows that his identity is very different, so he is not worthy of such Luo Youyou.

Coriander denied it with a straight face, "Don't talk nonsense, it's not what you think." ”

Coriander knew that if she wanted coriander to completely let go of her prejudices, she would either knock Luo Youyou's white swan down from the sky, or encourage her to fly into the sky.

"Brother, don't lie to me about this kind of thing, it's not a shameful thing."

"People like me ......"

Before Coriander could finish speaking, she was caught in her mouth by a pair of chopsticks.

"Brother, don't always be so arrogant," said Cilantro, "You look down on yourself yourself, how can you make others look down on you?" ”

He's just a cart puller, and it's too hard for others to look up to him.

"Brother, do you want to take some time out every day to go to Luo Youyou's school as a transfer student, so that you have more opportunities to contact her."

Coriander's heart moved, and the originally flickering look dimmed in an instant, and she opened her mouth to say something dejected, but was cut off by coriander again:

"You don't have to be in such a hurry to decide, just think about it first. If we don't want to make progress here, we might as well go back to our hometown and farm, brother, don't you say? ”

Coriander nodded unconsciously.

Truth be told, he didn't want to be just a cart puller. (To be continued.) )
