Chapter 247: Showmanship

Ling Li's fingers holding the phone suddenly tightened, and her heart was a little stuffy.

That's half good news, half bad news.

Ling Li's palms were slightly hot, and he only felt that his body was surging with a power that he had never had before.

Single-handedly going against the whole world, it seems that in the end it seems to prove that she is going in the right direction.

From Friday to Tuesday night, they were busy non-stop for four days until the effect of flying was still there, and things finally had a breakthrough.

The case, which had been silent for eight years, was finally no longer a pool of stagnant water without any waves, which rekindled Ling Li's new hope.

Their previous trip to Nanxi was, in a sense, to find the truth of the year, however, they did not find enough evidence to show Ling Jiashu's state at that time, and there were no clues that anyone else had committed the crime.

Naturally, it cannot be ruled out that her father killed the whole family, which is the general direction of the police investigation.

But I found something else.

Zhou Qingchun's suicide note was deliberately forged.

Zhou Qingchun's death was first discovered by his neighbors and colleagues.

The doors and windows of the crime scene were locked, and there were no traces of violent entry, and there were no remnants of the presence of others.

It is said that Zhou Qingchun soaked in the bathtub for three days when he was found, not only did there be wine bottles and sleeping pill bottles at the scene, but also a large dose of alcohol was detected in his blood.

In addition, there were traces of cutting veins, and blood stained a large vat of water red.

It does look like a typical scenario of suicide.

At first, the police did not suspect that someone deliberately committed suicide, but later the surrounding surveillance was also normal and no other people appeared, so it was recognized as a suicide.

However, the evildoer finally became a thief and finally got an email, which turned out to be flawed.

The thing that seemed to be a suicide note was not written by Zhou Qingchun himself at all.

After Ling Li realized the strangeness of the word "sue", she reversed her previous fear of exposing Lu Xiaoxiao's secret, and called Li Guo that night.

And Nan Zhiyi also learned some information from the students of Tian Zhengyan's line who worked on the criminal investigation line.

The two online feedback shows that Zhou Qingchun's family and cultivation said that he usually uses a handwritten input method for typing, and basically does not use pinyin.

This is the reason why Ling Li felt that the word "sue" was strange that day.

In Funan, a province where the local vernacular and Mandarin pronunciation and tone are far away, most people are not very good at Mandarin, and the younger generation has been exposed to it since childhood with a solid foundation, and there are more people who use pinyin, and it is not the case if you go back 20 years.

So in her inherent impression, the elders who are about the same age as Zhou Qingchun basically use handwriting input, and few people use pinyin, such as Zhang Shouzhen.

Most older people can listen to Mandarin, but they don't speak it very well, let alone type in pinyin.

Therefore, at that time, they suspected that someone had forged the suicide note.

Since someone forged a suicide note, and the suicide note was indeed sent by Zhou Qingchun's computer, it is possible that someone was at the scene when Zhou Qingchun died.

There is also a certain probability that Zhou Qingchun did not commit suicide, and after someone killed him, he deliberately faked such a scene.

If Officer Zhou did not commit suicide but killed him, does it mean that his investigation at that time affected someone who had to kill Officer Zhou and disguise himself as a suicide?

As for the purpose behind it, it is likely to be related to what Officer Zhou was doing at that time.

For example, at that time, he was bent on re-investigating the tragedy of Ling Li's family.

And Li Guo, who learned the clues from Ling Li that night, immediately summoned relevant personnel to work overtime to study.

It is a matter of whether a policeman who is about to retire commits suicide under pressure and affects the honor of the police, even if there is no special relationship with Li Guo, the police will attach great importance to it.

That night, I heard that the provincial department held a meeting overnight, and the minority represented by Li Guo suggested that the investigation should start from scratch.

Of course, there are also some people who have a negative attitude, because no matter what the outcome of the investigation is, it will add unknown risks to the Zhong Chengheng case, which caused an uproar.

Fortunately, with the support of key leaders, the investigation was able to start from scratch.

However, it is conceivable that things are not so easy to have results.

Three days have passed, and there is still no real evidence to overturn the conclusion of the suicide presented by the police investigation and the autopsy report, but at least at the insistence of the minority represented by Li Guo, the witnesses who Zhou Qingchun had investigated before his death were questioned again.

Judging from the information that Nan Zhiyi just sent, the police finally found out who was the person who sold rat poison to Ling Jiashu back then.

She just wanted to reply to the message and ask again, when suddenly a strong force came from behind her, pushing her to stumble.

Ling Li easily grasped the mobile phone and the sandwich that the boss had just handed her, and when she looked back, it was an unexpected face.

She blinked, looking at Wei Wei's cheeks with a slight redness, and involuntarily felt a little weak.

You must know that she and Nanzhiyi stayed in Nanxi for two days and two nights, even if nothing happened, but in the face of other people's legitimate girlfriends, there are still some losses.

Sure enough, as soon as Wei Wei opened his mouth, he sent a proposition: "Brother Nan said that he went to Nanxi with you on the weekend, why are you not here on Monday and Tuesday?" ”

Ling Li didn't know how to answer, and she was afraid of making her careless, so she simply said to him: "Why are you here?" Running errands? ”

Wei Wei suddenly swallowed, rarely a little twisted, and didn't say a reason for a long time, but when he saw the sandwich in Ling Li's hand, his eyes lit up obviously: "Where did you buy it?" It looks delicious. ”

Ling Li breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and hurriedly handed her the sandwich: "Come, here you are." ”

"Thank you!" She took the sandwich, didn't say anything about giving money, took out the mobile phone that Didi was screaming and looked at it, and hurriedly said: "I have something urgent, go first, thank you for the sandwich, next time I will invite you." ”

After saying that, he ran across the crosswalk, and it was obvious that there was something urgent when he walked with the wind.

was inexplicably interrupted by Wei Wei, and Ling Li's mind forgot to send a text message back to Nan Zhiyi.

Seeing that it was not early, she walked back more than 100 meters to buy a sandwich again, stepped into the law firm to check in, and then began to deal with the chores that had accumulated for several days.

The absent-mindedness lasted until noon.

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't come to work for some reason, and after twelve o'clock, waves of assistants who were about the same age as her went to lunch together, and there was no lawyer in the office who could act together with her, so she had to go downstairs alone.

While waiting for the elevator, I met Zhu Jinchuan, who was in the dust.

"I heard Xiaocheng say, you didn't come to work on Mondays and Tuesdays? How is Tang Aoxue's case progressing so far? He stepped out of the elevator and began to check the post before he could stand firmly.

Ling Li didn't expect to meet him at this time, she was nervous and weak-hearted.

She knew that Zhu Jinchuan had been on a business trip since Sunday, and it seemed that he would only come back on Friday, but she didn't expect him to ask about her case as soon as he went to work.

But since she was arrested, it was the next choice to not admit it, and she had better be honest in front of Zhu Jinchuan.

"It's the same as before, I have some things these days, and my main focus is not on the case." After answering him softly, Ling Li lowered her head, looking like she knew that the wrong boss spared his life.

Zhu Jinchuan moved his lips, and found that there were a lot of people around, and it was not good to say anything.

"Don't go to dinner yet," he said after a dozen seconds, "go to my office first, get down to business and then take a lunch break." ”

A few minutes later, in the office, Zhu Jinchuan pushed a magazine in front of Ling Li: "Take a look, it's trouble again." ”

Ling Li looked at his hand, and there was a conspicuous string of letters on the cover.

Vista?

Ling Li was a little puzzled. This book doesn't seem to have much to do with the law, it is a hot topic in current affairs, finance, and politics, and has a very wide audience.

However, Ling Li is not very interested in this book, basically it belongs to reading it if it is available, and she never takes the initiative to buy it, at most it is the Nth choice to pass the time of boredom.

Seeing that she looked like she didn't know what to do, Zhu Jinchuan shook his head, and stretched out his long hand to open the folded page as a bookmark.

"You haven't read the newspapers in the past few days, have you?" There was a little coldness in his voice, "Do you know, who Zheng Qijie found as a defense lawyer?" ”

"Huh?" Ling Li looked up, her expression confused.

In the past few days, all her energy has been basically involved in the changes in the case at home, and she has unconsciously ranked her work in the second priority.

So when she heard the words "Zheng Qijie" in her ears, she still felt a little strange, and she didn't come back to her senses for a while.

It wasn't until she saw the page of the magazine that the huge headline stood out in the center of the page.

"Fate is like a cloud: another She Xianglin in the process of rule of law?".

Underneath the title, two photos of a man are quite familiar.

One is Zheng Qijie's ID photo before he was imprisoned, he was a little unenergetic, his eyes were swollen and his face was slightly fat.

The other is a photo of Zheng Qijie's hair shaved short, which seems to be in the detention center.

Looking at the signature under the title, the three words "Yu Wenzhong" are very dazzling.

"This!" She was dumbfounded, a little puzzled by how the two of them had come together.

But combined with Zhu Jinchuan's words just now, even if he didn't read the report carefully, Ling Li quickly understood what it meant.

"Fun, right?" There was a hint of a mocking smile on the corner of Zhu Jinchuan's mouth, and he shook his head and lit a cigarette.

"Yu Wenzhong, this old boy, has grown in temper over the years. I just revealed the bad things Qi Wan did when she was young and went to a school in New Zealand, and asked the school to take the initiative to persuade her to quit school, Yu Wenzhong couldn't sit still. ”

Ling Li blinked her eyes at a loss, only feeling that this sentence was very informative, and she didn't understand why it was in her head for a long time.

However, the cause and effect were vaguely strung together by a thread, and she finally understood the hidden meaning behind Zhu Jinchuan's words.

It sounds like Qi Wan was being troubled by Zhu Jinchuan, but I don't know if it has something to do with Qi Wan's previous visit to the office.

Oh, no wonder Qi Wan said that she would protect her like an old hen in Jinchuan, she didn't understand it at the time, but now she suddenly realized.

Zhu Jinchuan saw that she understood a little, and he didn't hide it from her, and continued: "I only found out about this this morning, so I hurriedly came back from work in Haixi Province, just because I was afraid that you would be cranky and confused if you knew about it. ”

After that, Zhu Jinchuan continued to explain to her the ins and outs of this matter.

This case is indeed very appetizing to Yu Wenzhong, but he got Zhong Chengheng out, and the state compensation under the operation greatly exceeded the amount prescribed by law, and the status of the rivers and lakes reached an unprecedented height. Zheng Qijie has few money in the family, and the case is not a big sensation, and the difficulty of the case is not very difficult, and it is not worth his trouble. The reason why he is willing to appear in court is only because he is afraid that the person who will come will not be good. Ling Li, you have to be ready. ”

Ling Li bit her lower lip, her face a little pale.

For the name Yu Wenzhong, even if it is not as frightened as when I first heard it, the nightmare of my youth has never gone away.

At that time, she was still an adult, and she was questioned by Yu Wenzhong again and again on the witness stand in the court, and she was emotional, if there was no intervention from the prosecutor, I was afraid that she would cry on the spot.

It was also from that experience that she learned that when language is used as a weapon, it can be sharper than a knife.

Now, she and Yu Wenzhong represent the defendant and the victim respectively, and although there is still a procuratorate in between, the goals they want to pursue through this lawsuit are completely opposite.

So obviously, they're going to be on the bar at trial.

But it's not eight years ago, she is no longer the little girl who has never experienced malice from the outside world, but has become a lawyer like Yu Wenzhong.

can't say that he is strong in his heart, but he will definitely not be bullied to the point of collapse by him again.

She was still in a daze, and suddenly she was gently tapped on the shoulder.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Zhu Jinchuan's voice was soft, but it contained a firm power that allowed her to feel at ease for the time being.

"I know he was in that case back then, and he was so sorry for you. It's just that now that the situation has changed, he will no longer be qualified to interrogate you. On the contrary, you have the opportunity to take revenge, and you may be ruined in one fell swoop. ”

Ling Li raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes full of blank expressions.

Even if Zhu Jinchuan thinks and expects it to be good, in this case, she can make Zheng Qijie confess at most, but where is the chance to calculate Yu Wenzhong?

Zhu Jinchuan didn't explain, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he continued: "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, I will let him repay the debt he owed back then." ”
