Chapter 43: Avoiding the Edge for a While

The gift was not given in vain, the lawyer, the apprentice and the cousin were very sensible, and after chatting for a while last night, they drove the two out of the door with a pull, locked the security door with a "bang", and said that they would go downstairs to live the world of two. Zhang Lin didn't know how reluctant she was, and Barrister Han couldn't ask for it, so she pushed forward the schedule of public cohabitation by two and a half months.

When I woke up, I heard the sound of tinkling "music" from the kitchen, and the smell of food wafted over.

"Honey, it's breakfast, it's time to get up."

Xiao Bisheng was newly married, tossed for most of the night, exhausted, and didn't know how to fall asleep. I didn't expect her to be in such good spirits, not only did she get up early, but she also put on an apron like a virtuous wife and cooked herself.

It turned out that happiness was so close, and this warm smell of fireworks made Han Jun very infatuated, and he couldn't help but shrink into the quilt, close his eyes and pretend to sleep, pretending not to hear anything.

"Big lazy, get up quickly, the meal will be cold later!"

A cold little hand reached into the quilt and scratched the tender flesh of the belly, so cold that Han Jun begged for mercy again and again: "Lord Judge, spare your life, I'll get up, I'll get up!" ”

"Sit down, don't move."

Zhang Lin's smile was full of proper shyness, a trace of tenderness flashed in her dark eyes, she leaned over and kissed him on the forehead, and then moved her small table used to sit on the bed and work, brought a bowl of porridge, a small plate of fried beans and three fried eggs from outside, and gave him a warm breakfast of love.

She sat on the edge of the bed gently, beckoned him to eat, and said with some shyness: "The biggest cost of a woman engaging in scientific research is youth. Sometimes I feel like I'm really useless, I can't do anything, I can't even fry a serving of beans, my dear, if it's not delicious, don't be upset. ”

"What do you say?"

Han Jun's heart was hot, he ate three mouthfuls of beans in a row, put down his chopsticks and stroked her cheek, and said affectionately: "A woman who is willing to make breakfast for me must have a lot of tenderness of love in her heart. Facing this bowl of hot porridge and beans in front of me, I know that I have held hands with happiness, no matter how many twists and turns there will be in the road, I will work with you to write. Because I know that I have fallen in love with you, the woman who will make me breakfast. ”

A touching smile, a full of affectionate confession, made Zhang Lin, who had been busy all morning, burst into tears, she chewed these words, and all kinds of feelings rose in her heart, and the whole person was instantly surrounded by happiness.

"It tastes good, don't believe you taste it yourself."

She rubbed her eyes and said embarrassedly: "I feel that I should add more salt, but I am afraid that the salt will be too salty and I will have to redo it, this is the third part, and there are no more materials." ”

"What a stupid girl, who stipulates that women must be able to cook, it's a shame that you have stayed in school and stayed abroad for so long."

"It's almost 30, don't shout so meaty, it's embarrassing."

Han Jun stared at her with blazing eyes, smiled and said, "What's the matter with almost 30, even if you are seventy or eighty in my eyes, you are still a stupid girl." ”

Zhang Lin snuggled up to him and asked happily, "Really?" ”

"Really."

"But...... You've been in love so many times before, and you've had so many girlfriends, how do I know if I'll be like them, and I can only leave a good memory in the end. ”

This is really a difficult question to answer, Han Jun pondered for a moment, and said with a sincere face: "My dear, I am very serious about every relationship, and I have never deceived or betrayed any woman. The reason why he left the impression of bohemian and uninhibited on others was entirely because he couldn't give them the marriage they hoped for for the time being, so they fell in love again and again and broke up again and again. ”

He didn't hide the reason why he couldn't get married for the time being, Zhang Lin took a deep breath, hugged his arm tightly and said, "I'm different from them, I can wait, and I have enough time to wait." ”

Han Jun was moved, and said in a choked voice: "I made the mistake, and the responsibility is mine, which is unfair to you." ”

Zhang Lin smiled and said: "Bai Xiaoqian always said that there are not many good men, and you must catch them when you encounter them." A responsible man like you is worth waiting for, and it's not the ends of the world, as long as you can stay together and get married, what's the difference. ”

"Thank you."

"Don't talk about this," Zhang Lin changed his words and asked worriedly: "Han Jun, human life is at stake, you really don't care about what Jiang said last night?" ”

Deputy Director Cui, who had just taken office in the Western Suburbs Branch, wanted to overturn the case, not only thinking that the possibility of Zhong Haijun's intentional homicide could not be ruled out, but even talking to Jiang Yi to overturn even the plot of voluntary surrender that had been confirmed.

Han Jun touched his nose and said expressionlessly: "Bai Xiaoqian's analysis is right, the new official has three fires in office, he wants to use this case to help the Western Suburbs Branch export his evil anger, save some face, and achieve the purpose of gaining a firm foothold and opening up the situation." Anyway, the prosecution period has passed, and he has nothing to fear. ”

"Revenge is revenge, he can't joke with a human life."

"So I looked down on him, but I have to admit that he was cunning and hit me in the soft underbelly at once. can neither manage nor ignore, manage the name is not right, no matter whether Zhong Haijun's charge of intentional homicide may really be established, after all, people did die in his hands, whether it was accidental or deliberate, no one saw it with their own eyes. ”

Zhang Lin asked eagerly: "Could it be that the court will really turn a blind eye to those evidence?" ”

Han Jun secretly sighed, and said with a bitter smile of helplessness: "Human life is at stake, and the judge must be responsible for making a judgment." Unlike in the United States, where there is a jury, the jury has the final say on whether or not the crime of intentional homicide is convicted, and the judge only needs to make a verdict on the basis of guilt and innocence. More importantly, domestic trials are too susceptible to external influences, and once the pressure of public opinion is too great, it will be difficult to make a fair and just judgment. ”

"If Zhong Haijun is really sentenced to death, won't he feel guilty at all?"

"My dear, you and I think that Zhong Haijun is not guilty of death, it doesn't mean that everyone thinks so. In addition, as the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, he must know very well that in such a situation, the court will generally 'suspect the crime lightly', and will neither find Bai Xiaoqian's claim of accidental death, nor will it really sentence the death penalty. In the end, the verdict is either a suspended death sentence or an indefinite term, and there can be an explanation for all aspects of the top. ”

Zhang Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief, stroked his chest and said: "Anyway, if a girl dies at his hands, she would definitely have to kill someone to pay for her life decades ago, as long as she is not sentenced to death." Moreover, in the prison table, the death penalty can be reduced indefinitely, and the indefinite period can be reduced to a certain period. Moreover, there is nothing wrong with 'leniency in suspicion', after all, he is responsible for his actions. ”

"Even you think so, 'there is never a suspicion of guilt' There is a long way to go."

"So what can you do, you're not a judge."

To Zhang Lin's surprise, Barrister Han actually said lightly: "Admit defeat, bow his head to him, resign from the police style and discipline supervisor, and let him burn the first fire after the new official takes office." ”

"It's not like your style."

"Anyone who has lost his freedom knows how precious it is. Compared with Zhong Haijun who has been in prison for more than ten or even decades, what is it for me Han Jun to lose face? What's more, I'm not a high-ranking official, I'm not a public figure, and I'm not afraid of losing face. ”

Zhang Lin was full of emotion, hugged his arm and said, "My dear, you are so great. ”

Han Jun shook his head and smiled: "What's great, it's just that I know the current affairs better." He now has an absolute advantage, the whole body is dressed in a red robe, the judge who holds the life and death book in his left hand and the soul hooking pen in his right hand, I can only avoid his edge for the time being. When he asks me in the future, he will bow his head as well, and I will not give him a chance to fight back. ”

This is Han Jun in her mind, Zhang Lin said with a smile: "My dear, I knew that you wouldn't be really good." Well, he happens to be surnamed Cui, and he will be called Judge Cui in the future! ”

"No matter how powerful the judge is, he is afraid of Hades, let him be proud for the time being, wait for Zhong Haijun's case to settle down, and see how this Hades cleans him up. In the words of that sketch, he actually didn't play according to the routine! If I don't follow the rules of the game, and I don't even care about the minimum moral limit, I must find an opportunity to make up for him and tell him what the spirit of the law is. ”

The time was not early, Zhang Lin got up and said with a smile: "Then you can study how to clean him up at home, I have classes in the morning, and if I don't leave, I will be late." ”

"I'll send you."

"Don't be so troublesome, after more than a month of business trips, take a good rest at home."

"Okay, I'll go up and study the case files brought back by graduate student Jiang, the Western Suburbs Branch had three murder cases that were not solved last year, let's see if I can solve the case to earn some food expenses, and then teach Judge Cui a lesson by the way."

Zhang Lin couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "The teaching task is subcontracted to Bai Xiaoqian, and the Department of Justice will not go, do you work like this, it's just not a good job." ”

Lawyer Han said confidently: "I am a freelancer, and let me go to work from 9 to 5 without suffocating me." Besides, it's not like I don't do anything serious, don't look at me idle all day long, as long as the provincial legal affairs office makes a phone call, I will be on call. ”

"You call it eating empty salary, and you eat several empty salaries at the same time."

Han Jun pointed to the computer bag and said with a smile: "Dear judge, don't say that it's so ugly, I just prefer to work from home and don't like to go to the unit very much." In fact, I have a lot of things to do, and the companies that Vice Governor Kang contacted in the United States this time sent me dozens of emails, consulting this and inquiring about that, and each one of them had to be replied to seriously, and they were about to become a researcher of China Merchants. ”

"That's right, if you get the country's salary, you should make some contributions to the country's economic construction."
