Chapter 28: Epiphany

When a person calmed down, Ling Li began to think about the case again.

Regarding Nan Zhiyi's words, Ling Li was still a little skeptical, and he was also confident in his inner judgment.

However, two groups of uninvited guests appeared in her hospital room in the afternoon, and Ling Li finally realized that she was indeed wrong.

The first person who came was the policeman in charge of questioning, a man and a woman, who made a detailed record of her, and clearly informed her that the fibrous tissue on her fingertips had been tested, and by comparing the clothes of that night, it was verified that Qu Linjiang was not a suspect, and asked her to recall some details of the time of the crime to see if there were any valuable clues that had been missed.

An hour later, the police said goodbye and left, followed by Qian Liting and Qu Linjiang.

As soon as she saw Qu Linjiang, Ling Li's heart sank slightly, and she had some bad premonitions.

Qu Linjiang came out so quickly, it seems that the police quickly ruled out his suspicion, and did not find other reasonable evidence to continue the interrogation.

In this way, this case seems to be some distance away from the truth coming to the surface.

When Qian Liting saw Ling Li, her face was full of sadness and self-blame, she sat beside her bedside and held her hand, and said, "Lawyer Xiao Ling, we have all recovered the agency fee, but you are still investigating, and you almost encountered an accident." ”

When she said this, her voice choked, and then she sobbed and said, "Thank you for your persistence, otherwise, we would not have a clue at all." ”

Hearing Qian Liting crying again, Ling Li didn't know how to persuade her. This aunt is really made of water, and she loves to cry so much......

Qu Linjiang stood beside the bed with a haggard face, looking at them in silence with a slightly gloomy face.

Ling Li was still suspicious of him, her eyes looked up at him, even if she felt that his gaze made her eyes hurt, she did not back down.

However, Qu Linjiang was defeated first.

He turned his face away, and when he turned his head again, he already had a wry smile on his face: "The police came in the middle of the night, and I don't know what's going on." When I knew the cause and effect, I regretted more and more that I couldn't protect Jiajia back then. ”

Seeing that Ling Li continued to be silent, he said again: "I can't hide it, the reason why the police are very sure that I am not a suspect is because I have sufficient alibi evidence, and second, I ......."

He stopped, his face was a little hesitant, and finally spoke after a few seconds: "The reason why Liting and I have not had children for so many years is because I have long lost my fertility. So, it's impossible for me to commit the crime you said. ”

Ling Li opened her mouth wide and couldn't recover in a daze, and then turned her head to look at Qian Liting.

When she saw Qian Liting nodding slightly in acquiescence, her head was in chaos.

Qu Linjiang didn't have an embarrassed look, and talked about his unspeakable past in a calm tone.

It turned out that before Qu Linjiang made a fortune, he had worked many jobs and did a lot of work. When he was working as a small worker on the construction site, he carelessly fell from the scaffolding, and although he was only at the height of the second floor, he was hit by more than a dozen steel pipes that rolled down.

At that time, he had a lame leg and took more than half a year to recover, but the leg injury was not the most serious, and the most regrettable thing was that he lost the possibility of being a father forever.

Hearing this past, Ling Li was directly stupid as if she had been struck by lightning.

At least a minute later, Ling Li lowered her head and said in an inaudible voice, "I'm sorry, I'm ...... I...... I don't know ...... you, so I wronged you. ”

When it comes to his privacy, Ling Li has always been a little speechless.

Qu Linjiang sighed and shook his head slightly: "Lawyer Xiaoling, don't say anything wronged, I had a bad attitude towards you before, and I almost beat you, I'm very sorry." ”

Ling Li lowered her head, and her voice was melancholy: "I really didn't expect Qu Jia to go insane after knowing Xiao Yuzi's life experience. I can only deduce from this incident that she thought that Xiaoyuzi's biological father must have brought her a lot of harm and torture, and her status and authority did not allow her to resist, so she suspected you. ”

Qu Linjiang nodded in understanding, and said slowly: "I thought that lawyers were like businessmen, and they would only choose cases that were beneficial to them, either for fame or profit. Unexpectedly, you showed me another kind of lawyer, who has his own persistence and principles, and does not care about personal gains and losses, which makes me admire. ”

His determined tone and sincere eyes made Ling Li's heart slightly hot.

It turns out that he has always been with others, and he still has a shining point that can be recognized.

It turns out that even if most people are labeled as inflexible, they can do what smart people can't do by their own persistence.

Although she ran in the wrong direction and almost lost her life, her efforts eventually allowed the police to reopen the investigation of the case, instead of giving the anonymous letter to the police, only to have no clue about the lack of evidence.

Before leaving, Qu Linjiang said goodbye to her, and said: "I am convinced that Skynet is restored and does not miss this sentence, no matter how cunning a person is, it will leave clues, lawyer Xiaoling, although it is very troublesome for you, but, as Qu Jia's father, I hope you can think more about this case, whether you can catch that person quickly and not give him a chance to destroy the evidence, it is all up to you." ”

Until Qu Linjiang left for a long time, Ling Li still had the urge to cry. His resolute eyes and the heaviness of his father's love like a mountain, as well as Qu Jia's experiences over the years, have brought her too many touching and regretful emotions.

Before, she had been a little resistant, and she couldn't completely sink down to recall the details of the previous attacks, especially the painful and terrible experience when she was choked by the neck.

At this time, she took a deep breath, closed her eyes as if in a meditative state, and recalled all the details of the crime.

For at least ten minutes, she remained motionless, and except for her slightly undulating breathing, she was almost like a sculpture.

Contrary to her static appearance, Ling Li's brain was running rapidly at this time, but she was thinking about the situation that night over and over again.

Dark shadows, hands around her neck, chaotic footsteps, flashes of knife light, blinding lights......

It seemed as if some important clue had been missed, but the clue flashed so fast that she couldn't even catch it before it disappeared without a trace.

Ling Li thought about it for a long time, but still didn't find anything. She opened her eyes a little irritably, sighed, and turned her head to look out the window.

The moment she turned her face, she seemed to see a glimmer of reflection on the side of her pillow. If you look closely, it turns out to be the pair of glasses that she threw away just now.

I just felt that my thoughts suddenly became clear, and my mind was clear.

She grabbed her glasses and muttered to herself, "Teacher Nan took this as my glasses, and it is very likely that they were found in my room." Well, there is a good chance that this is left by the criminals! ”

is not tall, wears glasses, and has a deep mind, which makes Qu Jia unable to resist......

All the clues point to the same person, and as this person surfaces, the previous confusing case gradually becomes clear.

The fog in front of her was finally lifted, Ling Li took out her mobile phone, and her fingers trembled a little.

She dialed according to the number left by the police before, and after a beep, the phone was connected, and she didn't have time to wait for the other side to speak, so she said in a trembling voice: "I remember, I already know who the suspect is!" ”
