Chapter 417: Face
Zhu Jinchuan was very surprised, and his eyes were a little stunned.
Nan Zhijun had long expected him to have such a reaction, and the next sentence was said slowly: "He said, you two partners, you will definitely be able to save him out." ”
Ling Li was stunned for a moment.
Such words, it seems, have been heard somewhere.
Suddenly, I remembered that cold winter night, a certain hanger, who had never been upright, took her by the collar and said, "My lawyer is her, Ling Li." I'm not going to give anyone permission to anyone else. ”
If only she could go back in time - if she hadn't intervened in the lawsuit at that time, she wouldn't have intersected with Nan Zhiyi, and he wouldn't have gradually entered her life later.
In this way, Tao Xing is with him, which is a natural thing, without her participation, maybe Tao Xing will not have an accident, and he will not have this prison now.
If the encounter with him was a mistake, then now, is it necessary to make a mistake even worse?
Ling Li's train of thought was still a mess because of the past entanglement, and Nan Zhijun had already begun to talk to Zhu Jinchuan about the cause and effect.
Nan Zhijun said that as soon as Nan Zhiyi was detained, he had already contacted Tian Dazhuang in the capital and asked him to fight this lawsuit.
The Tian Da in Nan Zhijun's mouth is not Tian Zhengyan, but Nan Zhijun's college classmate, a famous lawyer with the reputation of being the first person in criminal defense in the Great Heavenly Empire.
He has appeared in court to defend many major and important cases that have attracted worldwide attention, and his influence is much greater than that of an academic lawyer like Yu Wenzhong. I wish Jinchuan the most beautiful scene that year, and no one will compare him with Tian Daxiang - that is really the flame of the candle, how can it compete with the sun and the moon.
Unexpectedly, Tian Dazhuo took the commission in the face of Nanzhijun, and flew from the imperial capital to the capital overnight, but only saw Nanzhiyi for five minutes.
Nan Zhiyi asked Tian Da to pass on the message, he only accepted Ling Li's defense, if he wanted two lawyers, then add Zhu Jinchuan.
Tian Dazhuang is also the first time he has been rejected, in addition to complaining to his old classmates about the rare experience of being disliked, that is, to persuade Nan Zhijun, the case is complicated and confusing, Nan Zhiyi will lose his life or have no future, everything must be cautious.
In short, without further ado, it is necessary to quickly find a lawyer that Nanzhiyi trusts and start preparing for the defense.
Before Nan Zhijun left, he even said something like "Ling Li, even if I beg you".
Combined with Nan Zhijun's words, thinking of Nan Zhiyi's willfulness, Ling Li couldn't help but smile bitterly.
This is indeed in line with his personality, he will point to the lawyer indiscriminately if he disagrees, and he will not accept other people's defenses - even if the Department of Justice can force the appointment of a legal aid lawyer to him, Ling Li also believes that Nan Zhijun has the energy to replace the designated legal aid lawyer with the provincial situation he wants to play, but if Nan Zhiyi does not cooperate with the lawyer's work, what should he do?
She knew him, so why didn't he know her? Did he think that he could force her to take over the lawsuit by coercing and gambling like this?
was unwilling and entangled in her heart, and finally wished Jinchuan and pointed her in the direction.
Zhu Jinchuan, who was also entrusted by Nan Zhiyi, said that he would like to see the investigation of the police first, and then talk about the rest of the matter.
So I applied for grading the next day. With Nan Zhijun's energy and Li Guo's mediation, they were able to go to the police station to check the case file information without a power of attorney, and the proceeds went very smoothly.
The police did not have Nan Zhiyi's confession in their hands, but the on-site inquest records gave enough information.
Half an hour later, after reading the evidence held by the police, Ling Li only felt cold in her hands and feet.
Sure enough, as Lu Xiaoxiao's previous news, almost all the evidence at the scene pointed to Nan Zhiyi who pushed Tao Xing downstairs and deliberately disguised it as the scene of suicide.
Everything is very unfavorable to Nanzhiyi.
Coming out of the police station, it was getting dark and it seemed like it was going to rain.
Zhu Jinchuan was unusually silent, and it wasn't until he sent her downstairs that he asked, "Do you believe he didn't kill anyone?" ”
Ling Li took a deep breath and turned her head to look at him: "I said I believe it, do you believe it?" ”
His eyes darkened, and it took him a long time to look away: "Since that's the case, let's try it." ”
Ling Li bit her lower lip lightly, and finally nodded: "Okay." ”
Zhu Jinchuan had expected this answer.
If there are obvious flaws in this case, and Nan Zhiyi is obviously innocent, then Ling Li may not accept it.
However, if it is really difficult to get rid of the crime, Ling Li will definitely not let it go.
It's been almost four months, even if Ling Li doesn't come to work with red and swollen eyes, Zhu Jinchuan knows that she is very tormented and depressed.
Her lonely crying in the heavy rain was not enough for her to release all the pressure.
She needs an outlet to vent her emotions; And he also needs a chance to get Ling Li out of that love scene completely.
Perhaps, this is an opportunity.
Zhu Jinchuan pursed the corners of his mouth and said: "Then I will apply to meet with the client tomorrow, and there should be results soon, you should rest early today, recuperate your spirits, and strive for the first meeting, and make a progressive breakthrough." ”
————
After taking Nan Zhiyi's case, Ling Li tossed and turned and almost didn't sleep all night.
She thought she would be in a complicated mood, but when she saw Nan Zhiyi in the detention center three days later, she was unexpectedly calm.
In addition to her short hair and her mental outlook looking a little decadent, Nan Zhiyi's face is clean, obviously she has just shaved her beard, and she is not at all as haggard as the felons in her impression, let alone the necessary shackles for felons.
Even, his expression was very relaxed.
Zhu Jinchuan was generally silent throughout the meeting, and made it clear that Ling Li would ask questions this time.
Ling Li's first question was: "Before the crime, when was the last time you saw the deceased?" ”
The police investigation said that Nanzhiyi was away from home for seven days before the killing.
Nan Zhiyi seemed to recall for a few seconds, and then said: "Seven days before she jumped off the building, I said that I would go back to school to work overtime, but she wouldn't let me go, and said that if I left at that time, I would regret it." I didn't expect her to do something stupid. ”
Ling Li closed her eyes, and suddenly remembered the day they broke up, she also said the same thing to him - "If you leave now, you will regret it."
He didn't come back that night, just like he did with Momo-apricot this time.
She took a deep breath, tried to get rid of the haunted memory, and continued to ask, "So, you think the scene is still a suicide?" ”
"I don't know, if she committed suicide, naturally it has nothing to do with me, if it wasn't suicide, it shouldn't be my hand."
"Should?" Ling Li squinted slightly, "Don't use such vague words, you have to give me the exact answer." Were you at the scene when the deceased fell from the building? How do you explain the scars on your hands? ”
Nan Zhiyi pursed his lips when he heard her question, and after a few seconds, he spoke and said slowly: "Ling Li, don't you believe me either?" ”
Ling Li eased her mood: "What you need is not to believe in you, but to use facts and evidence to make the judge believe you." In addition, if you feel that you are not guilty, we will do a not guilty defense, if it is really your hand, I also hope that you will not ignore him, answer my question directly, and then we will determine the defense strategy. ”
After a pause, she looked at Nan Zhiyi fixedly: "Understood?" If you want to be free, you have to trust me with all your heart and tell me what happened that day. ”
Nan Zhiyi's eyes were not on her.
He looked at the ceiling, his arms folded, as if reminiscing.
Ling Li waited for him to remember the details related to the case, but unexpectedly, half a minute later, he spoke: "She was alone in that room and didn't go out for seven days, I really don't know what she was thinking, so I don't know anything about her psychological condition." ”
Ling Li was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Don't go out for seven days?" What about rice grains and gulhi? Don't you need to walk? ”
Nan Zhiyi's eyes darkened, and then looked back at her calmly: "Mi Li and Gu Li are long gone. ”
Ling Li's eyebrows jumped, and she couldn't help but shout: "How come? How do you take care of them! ”
Nan Zhiyi didn't answer her question directly, but said lightly: "A lot of things have changed, she is different from you, and what she doesn't like will be ruined." ”
Ling Li was still thinking about Mi Li and Gu Li in her heart, and then gasped: "Could it be her hand?" ”
Because of the chocolate incident of dog poisoning, Ling Li immediately linked Mi Li Guli and Tao Xing.
Nan Zhiyi still didn't give a positive answer, only lowered his eyes and said, "You have changed so much, you are really different from the little rookie before." Fan girl, you've grown up. ”
An hour later, when she came out of the detention center, Ling Li was in a depressed mood.
Even if she was unwilling, in order to keep Nan Zhiyi from being wronged, she still accepted this commission, but he still didn't cooperate at all.
Zhu Jinchuan was silent for a moment, and said to Ling Li: "He is going around in circles and has been refusing to answer your questions head-on. ”
Ling Li looked at him and nodded.
She had already seen it - based on her understanding of Nan Zhiyi, she could clearly see that he was not talking to her sincerely.
Although he didn't admit that he had killed someone, he always talked about him in the left right, always letting the topic deviate, and he was silent for a few minutes at every turn - which made Ling Li suspect that he didn't want to let himself have a chance to get away with it at all.
He said that she had changed a lot, and he was obviously not the same as before, and her once clear eyes were covered with clouds, and she didn't dare to guess what he was thinking.
It's only been a few months since he broke up, why has he changed so much?
And why did she have to be appointed as a lawyer? Is it to create a topic for the media, or does he think that criminal proceedings are just a game, and he can get away with it no matter how he plays?
But this one is a crime of intentional homicide, and once the defense fails, he will lose his life at worst, and at worst, he will also be imprisoned for decades.
And what Ling Li is most concerned about at the moment, what happened between Nan Zhiyi and Tao Xing?
If she couldn't get something effective from Nanzhiyi, then she had to start with someone else.
Ling Li clenched her palms, thinking of other ways.
A day later, she found Lu Peng in the study room of Funan University.
This big boy has lost a lot of weight, and his eyes are a little vicissitudes.
Ling Li knew that Tao Xing's matter made Lu Peng also hurt, and years of guarding in exchange for cold ridicule, and when Nan Zhiyi chose to protect Tao Xing, Lu Peng was hit by a double blow.
Presumably, in the past few months, Lu Peng has also been very sad.
When he saw Ling Li, Lu Peng's eyes were a little surprised, but he soon understood what she was here for.
When he knew that Ling Li had taken over the defense of Nan Zhiyi's case, Lu Peng bit his lip and seemed to be struggling.
After a while, he finally opened his mouth to talk about the affairs between Nan Zhiyi and Tao Xing in the past few months.
Xing'er came back from the hospital and moved to the teacher not long after, and the teacher said that it was for her own good, and she was worried that she would not be able to think about it. However, teachers often do not return home. Afterward...... Later, Xing'er walked the dog once and let go of Mi Li and Guli, and the teacher didn't go back. ”
Ling Li was stunned: "Mi Li and Gu Li, are they lost?" ”
