Chapter 202: Consultation
Xiao Cheng nodded and let go of Ling Li.
Ling Li's strength is so great, and she has only recently seen it. There is a set of chairs in the house is mortise and tenon structure, there are no nails, but after a long time, the right-angle tenon is easy to have problems, a few days ago another chair with a problem was shaky, she didn't get it for a long time, just said to call someone to repair, but Ling Li came over, and pressed the upturned tenon back with a slap, and her eyes were about to fall off on the spot.
Therefore, with the strength of this King Kong Barbie, there should be no problem with the thin woman in the reception room.
Ling Li took a deep breath and walked into the reception room in a few steps, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Hello, I'm Lawyer Ling from Chengda Law Firm, can I help you?"
When the woman heard her voice, her gaze moved from a distance and fixed on Ling Li.
At this glance, Ling Li's heart trembled. She finally knew what Xiao Cheng was saying that this woman was not normal.
She seemed quiet and beautiful, but her eyes seemed empty. Even if the direction is indeed placed on Ling Li's body, the feeling that he seems to be looking at Ling Li but doesn't seem to be looking at it is very weird.
Ling Li couldn't say that she was afraid, but she also raised her vigilance, and also reminded herself to pay more attention to the choice of words and sentences in the next communication to minimize the stimulation of this woman.
The woman just looked at her like that, and she didn't speak, and even the blinking movements seemed to be slow.
After more than ten seconds, Ling Li took a steady breath and spoke politely again: "Hello? How can I help you? ”
At least half a minute later, the woman finally reacted.
She smiled shyly, then tucked a strand of long hair from her cheek behind her ear and whispered a word.
Her voice was so low that Ling Li couldn't hear it clearly even with her ears pointed, so she had to say a little apologetically, "Can you repeat it again?" I didn't hear it clearly. ”
The woman smiled shyly again, and her voice finally became louder: "I looked for Zhu Jinchuan, and he said that he could help me, but it was unfortunate that he was not there." You don't have to worry about me, I'll wait a little longer, maybe he'll be back. ”
Ling Li breathed a long sigh of relief, and the heart that was hanging just now relaxed.
It seems that this woman is just a little weird, listening to her speak logically is quite strict, and the causes and consequences are also clearly explained, presumably just a little introverted, not as serious as Xiao Cheng said.
So she pointed to the single-seater sofa opposite the woman: "Can I sit down?" ”
"Of course," the woman nodded, her voice still low, "it was your own." ”
After sitting down, Ling Li tried her best to slow down her voice: "I wish the lawyer the court today, I don't know when I will come back." The front desk said that he had also called, but the phone was turned off. If you have anything to tell me first, see if I can help you. If you don't want to, you can also leave your contact information, and I will pass it on to Lawyer Zhu so that he can contact you later. ”
She explained, and the woman still smiled. After she finished talking for a while, the woman slowly shook her head: "Thank you for your kindness, but there are some things, only I wish the lawyer can help me." ”
The attitude was very good, her expression was very beautiful, and her voice was sweet and tactful, but she still politely rejected Ling Li's proposal.
Ling Li was not discouraged. She has always considered herself a qualified listener, and she considers herself to be careful and cautious, at least to summarize the simple things that her client asks for can be done.
Even if this beauty is determined to wait for Zhu Jinchuan, she may do the preliminary work first, so that Zhu Jinchuan can be more relaxed.
So, she simply resorted to a killer move: "Lawyer Zhu is my master, and he has also entrusted me with the preliminary work of many cases." Maybe you can talk about your situation first, and I will record it and sort it out and give it to Lawyer Zhu, so that you don't have to run in vain today. ”
After a pause, she added: "Lawyer Zhu is very busy, and he travels a lot in court, if we can do the work ahead today, we can also let Lawyer Zhu understand your needs in the least amount of time, so as to solve your problem as soon as possible." ”
"That's it......" The woman was finally a little moved, her brows frowning slightly, as if she was entangled.
Ling Li breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that there was a play.
But the woman's next sentence made her stunned: "Didn't he say that he didn't take apprentices?" You can't be trying to rob the agent in his name, right? Let me state first, I don't have any money for you. ”
Ling Li deduced from this passage that this woman seemed to have known Zhu Jinchuan before, and from what she said, it seemed that she was not a person who knew nothing about the law.
Ling Li pondered how to answer the call so that she could not offend her and make her stand out, and said for a while: "If you feel that I am not up to the role of a listener, you can always call it a stop." Moreover, I didn't say anything about the charges from beginning to end. ”
The woman was still looking at her steadily, and her eyes were the same, as if they were looking at her, but they seemed to have already penetrated her eyes into the distance.
Ling Li felt uncomfortable. This woman is normal when she speaks, but when she quiets down, it always feels weird.
Fortunately, in less than a minute, the woman had a new move.
She slowly rolled up her sleeves: "Someone abused me, didn't let me see my daughter, and locked me up." I've been worse than dead all these years, and I really can't stand it anymore so I came to a lawyer. ”
The shocking bruises on her hands, as well as several insect-like scars on her wrists, made Ling Li almost scream.
The marks ranged from black and purple to pale blue, some were old wounds, and some were obviously just injured, even if she used to look at them, she could imagine how painful it was, and she couldn't help but feel numb in her back.
The woman smiled and said to her as if she didn't feel it, "There are still a lot on my back, do you want to see it?" But please find a private room, I'm afraid it scares people. ”
Ling Li only felt that her palms were slippery, and she said after a while, "Did you call the police?" ”
"Nope." The woman lowered her sleeves and said simply: "I don't have a chance to call the police." ”
"Is there a treatment record from the hospital?" Ling Li didn't give up and continued to ask.
The woman continued to shake her head: "Of course it can't be, they say that I am postpartum depression, that I am self-harming, and that I have a tendency to hurt others, so they forcibly separated me from the child, and they thought I was ashamed and locked me up." But I didn't hurt myself, it was all done by their family. I want to live, I want to be free, I want to get a divorce, I want to see my children, can I? ”
After listening to each sentence, Ling Li felt heavy.
It looks like this is a woman who has been a victim of domestic violence. And the root cause of her victimization seems to come from postpartum depression, so it seems that her mental state is not too normal.
Fortunately, she can still have a normal conversation, and fortunately, she still has the opportunity to take up the weapon of the law to protect herself.
Ling Li was silent for a moment, looked at the woman, then got up and went to his desk to take the case registration form and pen, and returned to the reception room.
She first filled in the time and place of the reception, and then raised her head to look at the woman: "Can you tell me what to call you appropriately?" ”
"My surname is Xue." Her voice was thin.
Ling Li thought for a while, filled in the words "Ms. Xue" after the consultant, and then began to fill in the cause of the case.
She filled in as she lowered her head and said, "No one can separate a child from a mother." I know your situation, you can tell me if you want to say more today, if you don't want to say more, I believe that the information I have received is enough. When the lawyer returns, I will pass it on to him and I will return your call as soon as possible. ”
The woman began to smile again: "Thank you then." ”
It seems that before meeting Zhu Jinchuan, she didn't want to say anything more. And, having stood up and prepared to leave.
Ling Li didn't mind either, and kept filling out the form carefully. When she filled in the contact information, she raised her head: "Then please leave a phone number, okay?" ”
The woman turned her head and spread out her hands with a wry smile on her face: "Look at me now, I have nothing, no money and no mobile phone, I don't know where to go next, how to leave a contact number?" ”
Only then did Ling Li notice that she really didn't have anything like a satchel or wallet with her, and she didn't have a mobile phone in her hand.
Then look down at the pair of white mid-heels she called for and the obvious stains on the hem of her skirt.
Such an embarrassed look, it seems that she really escaped as she said.
Ling Li pondered for a moment and asked her, "You have nowhere to go like this, do you have any family members you can contact?" For example, your mother's family? Or a friend? ”
She shook her head: "No, I've been alone for a long time." ”
After speaking, he smiled again: "Don't worry, I still have a place to go." Then he walked to the door.
"No, you can't go like that." Ling Li hurriedly chased her out and grabbed her.
No matter how Ling Li persuaded her, she just refused to provide her family's phone number and insisted on leaving alone.
Ling Li knew that she couldn't influence other people's decisions, but she really didn't feel at ease that such a beautiful woman who seemed to be mentally abnormal was living on the streets.
Ling Li thought for a moment and said, "In this case, I'll contact the domestic violence shelter center of the Women's Federation, which can provide you with basic food and lodging, and you can apply to live there until the preliminary results of the matter are available." ”
The woman suddenly panicked: "No, no, I won't go, he will find me, I won't go." ”
Her eyes were full of horror and she struggled hard.
Ling Li tried to appease her, but it was completely in vain.
While struggling, the woman shouted hysterically: "You can't fight him, he is much better at playing these games than you." Only he can help me, only he ......"
Her words seemed to be the same as her thoughts, and they began to become confused, and after a while, Ling Li couldn't tell who was who.
In a hurry, Ling Li suddenly remembered the new system that had been in operation for more than a year.
She pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's do it, I'll apply for a writ of habeas corpus for you, with this, if he gets close to you, it's illegal." ”
The woman quieted down and regained focus in her eyes: "Really? ”
"Really." Ling Li nodded, "This system has been implemented for more than a year, and as long as women who are victims of domestic violence can apply." If the application is granted, he will not be able to come near you, so you will not have to be afraid. ”
"Thank you, thank you." The woman replied, a genuine smile on her face for the first time.
When she calmed down, she stroked her long hair that was a little disheveled, and asked Ling Li: "I'm sorry just now, I haven't been in contact with people outside for a long time, it's a bit rude." I don't even know what to call you. ”
Ling Li hurriedly took out her business card and handed it to her: "This is my business card, my name is Ling Li." ”
"My name is Xue ......" She took the business card, only glanced at it but was suddenly stunned, and only half of the words in her mouth were spoken.
A few seconds later, she raised her eyes to look at Ling Li: "Ling Li? Are you Ling Li?"
