In the corridor on the fourth floor, there were two rows of black-clad bodyguards standing straight and orderly, all of them with solemn expressions, and the atmosphere was heavy and stagnant, so oppressive that it was almost impossible for people to breathe.

Huo Ran's expression was indifferent, and a bodyguard stretched out his hand and stopped Huo Ran and Su Yu.

Huo Ran subconsciously took a small step and blocked it in front of Su Yu.

The bodyguard had a straight face and a businesslike tone: "Lawyer Huo, I'm sorry, Mr. Xie said that the lawyer is treacherous and cunning, and before seeing you, you must search your body, and you must also hand in some things." ”

Huo Ran glanced at the tall bodyguard, the bodyguard immediately understood, and another female bodyguard stood in front of Su Yu.

The two searched separately, and the sharper items on Su Yu and Huo Ran's bodies, voice recorders, laptops, mobile phones and other communication tools were all taken away, and then they saw Xie Lao.

Xie Lao still had a straight face, expressionless, and a pair of eyes were gloomy, but if he looked closely, he could find the red bloodshot in his eyes and the deep gloom under his eyelids that could not be ignored.

His bony fingers gripped the head of the cane hard.

With his hands folded, he held on to death, watching Huo Ran and Su Yu approach with cold eyes.

Xie Lao seemed to have aged a lot overnight, and his back was trying his best to straighten his back, but it also showed the arc of defeat.

He rolled his throat, his cheeks trembled, and he endured something, and after a long time, he asked word by word: "Huo Ran, what did you tell him when Ah Shen was in the detention center!" He's so good, why would he commit suicide! Why did he kill himself! Only you can reach him at that time! The more he spoke, the more excited he became, the green tendons on the back of his hands undulated, and he stood up with his crutches, "Ah Shen has always wanted to be acquitted, obviously everything is getting better, why!" Why! In just one morning, he committed suicide! ”

He seemed to want to vent all his anger on Huo Ran's body.

Old Xie's eyes seemed to eat Huo Ran: "What kind of deal did you make with the court, I respected your professional ethics before and agreed to keep it confidential, but now you have to tell me one by one!" ”

Huo Ran stared at Xie Lao, his expression was cold, his thin lips were gently pursed, and he let Xie Lao vent his emotions.

Xie Lao's expression was so hideous that he could see the bulging tendons in his temples, and he suddenly raised his crutches and was about to smash them towards Huo Ran.

Huo Ran grabbed the crutches with one hand, he didn't use a lot of force, but just a small movement, in exchange for the bodyguards' strict waiting, their hands were stretched into the suit, as if they could pull out their pistols at any time.

Xie Lao sneered, with haste and sarcasm: "It's okay now, it's all over now......"

"Old Xie, when did Xie Shen commit suicide?" Su Yu was silent for a long time, and suddenly spoke.

As soon as these words were asked, Xie Lao's eyes were tightly locked on Su Yu's body, with a strong sense of oppression, he clenched his fingers and stared at Su Yu for a long, long time, not knowing what he was thinking, but it made people feel creepy.

I don't know how long it took for Old Xie to break the silence, he took a step back with a little trembling, and sat down, he barely left the crutch, as if he could no longer support it without the crutch.

The bodyguard wearing black sunglasses subconsciously helped him and was thrown away by him mercilessly.

Xie Lao gritted his teeth: "When we got home, it was around 10 o'clock, and after Ah Shen came out of the detention center, he didn't say a word to me, I thought he was in a bad mood, after all, he just came out of that place, so he didn't force him to speak." When I was arranging tonight's dinner, he said that he wanted to be alone, so he went into the room, locked the door, and it was more than an hour before I realized that something was wrong, and when I knocked on the door, there was no response, so I asked people to open the door and go in. ”

Xie Lao's breathing was heavy and rapid, and his cheekbones were biting together: "Ah Shen committed suicide in the room, he committed suicide." ”

Xie Lao's eyes were stained with scarlet, and he squeezed out between his teeth word by word.

"Ah Shen committed suicide, Ah Shen died, Ah Shen actually committed suicide!" Old Xie stared at Huo Ran motionlessly, "What did you tell Ah Shen?" Huo Ran! You have to remember that you are just a lawyer, you can make your money enough, don't think you are a hero who saves the world! What the truth is, it has nothing to do with you! You just need to know that Xie Shen can't kill people, and it's enough for Sheng Wan to commit suicide! ”

Huo Ran's eyes were sparse, but Su Yu was no longer as silent as she had met before, she gently grabbed Huo Ran's wrist and took a step forward: "Old Xie, aren't you strange?" If, as you say, if Sheshen desires innocence, as he showed in court, he is now acquitted, shouldn't he be happy? ”

Before, she and Huo Ran guessed that Xie Shen's appearance was more like he faked the phenomenon of his murder, he knew the law, but deliberately used the law, and showed contempt for the law and no remorse in court.

Sheng Wan's suicide note was hidden by the police because the police wanted to investigate Xie Lao thoroughly.

After Xie Shen was acquitted, he chose to commit suicide, as if he couldn't bear the blame of his conscience and committed suicide in fear of sin, but Sheng Wan's suicide note was not forged, and the possibility of Sheng Wan's suicide was also very high.

……

Su Yu stared at Xie Lao: "Xie Lao, how did Xie Shen commit suicide?" ”

Xie Lao's eyes were red, he was silent, and looked back at Su Yu without saying a word, I don't know what he remembered, and there was a heavy ridicule and contempt in his eyes: "Su Yu, does Su Zhiguo know that you are with a poor boy like Huo Ran?" ”

Su Yu's eyelashes fluttered.

"A poor person is a poor person, Huo Ran's bones just can't get rid of the poor sour gas he has had since he was a child, you see, in order to make money, he tells all kinds of lies, he just relies on his own somewhat good-looking face, and specializes in deceiving you like a daughter who doesn't eat fireworks in the world, your father will definitely not agree, it's a pity that you young people can't listen to adults, the more we obstruct, the more you feel that you are true love......"

He chuckled softly.

Then he closed his eyes.

"Huo Ran, I don't know what deal you made with the prosecutor to acquit Ashen, your professional ethics are indeed admirable." He paused, closed his eyes, and clenched his fingers hard, "Ah Shen committed suicide with a knife, and when I asked people to break open the door and enter, he was already lying on the bed, motionless, the whole bed was covered with blood, his knife was in his hand, he had a knife wound on his neck, a ...... in his chest, and an abdomen"

Xie Lao's voice was uncontrollable trembling and old.

“…… Ah Shen is most afraid of pain, how dare he, how dare ......"

Su Yu pursed his lips.

No matter how strong Old Xie is, now he is just an old man who has lost his grandson, he takes a deep breath: "Ah Shen is taking revenge on me......"

At the end of the corridor there was another figure, her skin was very white, her expression was a little haggard, her limbs were very slender, but her belly was bulging.

This is Xie Shen's wife.

Su Yu's heart tightened, she watched Mrs. Xie Shen walk over step by step, the closer she got, the more she could feel her vulnerability, the miserable white light of the hospital mixed with the sunlight projected from the window, the skin on her face was almost transparent, as if it would disappear into the air in the next second.

Her hand gently rested on her bulging belly.

Hearing the footsteps, Xie Lao opened his eyes, stood up, and furrowed his brows in displeasure, with deep folds.

The bodyguard immediately went over and helped Mrs. Xie Shen.

Old Xie's voice was deep and cold: "What are you doing here?" Ah Shen is gone, and the only thing you have to do now is to take care of the baby in your belly! ”

Mrs. Xie Shen was very quiet, and she nodded: "Grandpa, I know, but I have something I want to tell Lawyer Huo." ”

The creases between Xie Lao's eyebrows became deeper and deeper, and his face tightened: "What's the matter, what do you have to say to him!" ”

Mrs. Xie Shen didn't look at Xie Lao again, her eyelashes kept moving, her lips were tense and tight, she raised her eyelids, glanced at Su Yu, and then looked at Huo Ran.

Her eyes are amber, the color of her pupils is a little light, and the tails of her eyes are slightly bent, which is very gentle, but it can be clearly seen that her eyelids are red and swollen, and it is clear that she has just cried.

Her pale lips moved: "Lawyer Huo, Ah Shen has something to hand over to you." The moment she lowered her eyebrows, tears flashed in the corners of her eyes.

Her chest rose and fell, she took out an envelope from the pocket of her coat and handed it to Huo Ran, but her fingers trembled uncontrollably, the tip of her nose was slightly red, tears rolled down at once, she bit her lower lip tightly, and her whole person was like a tight bow.

Her voice was very soft: "I found it in the room, when my grandfather banged on the door and entered, I received a scheduled email from my mobile phone mailbox, which was sent by Ah Shen, and he asked me to go to the locked drawer in the room to get a letter." The cry in her voice could no longer be hidden, and she choked up, "After Grandpa knocked the door open, he didn't let me in, and I knew that something had happened to Ah Shen, and then I asked people to go in and get the letter...... I haven't read the letter, and Ashen's email indicates that he wants to give it to you. ”

Huo Ran's clear black eyes looked at Mrs. Xie Shen for a while, and slowly opened the letter.

Xie Lao obviously didn't know the existence of this letter, his eyes widened, his eyebrows showed surprise, his face became more and more terrifying, he made a look, and the bodyguard took advantage of Huo Ran's inattention and snatched the letter from his hand.

Huo Ran furrowed his brows slightly, not as if he was not surprised by Xie Lao's actions.

Xie Lao quickly browsed Xie Shen's handwritten letter, the more he looked, the more his fingers clenched, he gritted his teeth fiercely, and when he finished reading, his expression was depressed and desperate, he staggered back and sat down.

"Ashen...... Ashen ......"

His shrewd eyes were clouded little by little, full of red bloodshots, tired, desperate.

Huo Ran took the letter from Xie Lao's hand with an indifferent expression, and Xie Lao did not object.

Huo Ran's letter was placed relatively low, so that Su Yu could also see it, Xie Shen's handwriting was not good-looking, probably because he was in a hurry and sloppy.

"Huo Ran, when you read this letter, you should know that you did something wrong, your defense of innocence was not successful, and you even killed me...... I'm joking, although I still don't like you and Lu Yuzhou, but I have to admit that as a lawyer, you and that kid are very good. Many lawyers are hypocrites, including myself, who want to make money and be worthy of professional ethics, and on the other hand, they want to show their compassion in front of the masses, for fear that others will despise him for not having human morality. ”

"Not having any prejudice against the client is something that many lawyers can't do, but you did it, the law is very interesting, isn't it, and the legal thinking is also very interesting, and I say so many things, as long as there is no reliable evidence, don't you believe it?"

"However, it doesn't matter if you believe it or not, the world is already terrible, and I am already disgusted with this world."

"Wanwan is indeed not killed by me, I have been entangled with Wanwan for three years, I have not been able to give her a name, and even let her have many abortions, I have also beaten her, as long as she says she wants to leave me, I can't control myself, I am a cowardly man, I am aggrieved outside, I always vent on Wanwan's body. Not long before the crime, my wife was pregnant, my grandfather hoped that I could be at home, and he had enough of my relationship with Wanwan, so he locked me up at home, restricted my movements, and when I didn't know, spread the news that Wanwan seduced a married man at school, and made Wanwan's poor family background public, so that Wanwan suffered exclusion and discrimination at school, and he also put pressure on the school to expel Wanwan, not give her a graduation certificate, and let Wanwan fire her from the coffee shop where she was working, and stopped my card for Wanwan, also asked her family who was far away in her hometown to come to City B to ask her for money. Grandpa has been stubborn all his life, he doesn't like disobedience, and he has no sympathy, he wants to force Wanwan away. ”

"Wanwan actually had a slight depression since the first abortion, she wanted to break up with me, I finally got out of the house, and the first time I saw her, she said that she was leaving City B, she couldn't stand it, and she wanted to separate from me. During that time, I kept trying to get her back, but she still wanted to leave me, and I couldn't help it, and I did it to her again. On the night of the crime, she drank some wine, so I took her to open a room, and that night, I was boiled a glass of milk, and there were sleeping pills in the milk. The next day, when I slept groggy, it was the pain of the knife cut on my face that woke me up, she wanted to kill me, she had an argument with me, she said I ruined her, she couldn't have children, she couldn't graduate, she fell into the abyss, she said she put sleeping pills in my milk, just to let me fall into a deep sleep, she killed me. She said she hated me, and when she was about to stab me in the chest, I took her knife. I loved and hated and felt guilty and angry, and my emotions were no longer out of my control, so I stabbed myself in the chest in front of her, so the stab in the chest was my own stab, and the scar on my face was stabbed in the evening. ”

Su Yu's chest was blocked, Xie Shen's true and false words were mixed, and when he was false, he was also false.

"After seeing the blood in my chest, Wanwan was very devastated, she was going to stab herself with a knife, I didn't dare to bet, so I had to leave first, the wound on my chest was actually not deep, heh, ridiculous, I didn't have that courage at all, because there was blood on my body, so I changed a set of clothes, walked out, went to buy medicine, gave myself medicine, and when I passed by the coffee shop, I walked in. That coffee shop was the coffee shop where Sheng Wan worked for the first time, and it was also the place where I first met her, and I still remember her smile, her beauty, and everything about her, and I thought at that time, how nice it would be if time could be repeated. ”

"It's just, I didn't expect it, I just left, and I committed suicide in the room every night, her heart was much more ruthless than mine, she stabbed her stomach several times, she hated herself for having a miscarriage and hurt the child, she stabbed herself in the chest and heart, she hated herself for not falling in love with me, and finally she stabbed her neck. It's too painful to die like this. ”

"When the police arrested me according to the clues provided by the hotel staff, I obviously didn't believe it, but deep down I felt that this was Wanwan's choice, my whole body collapsed, I couldn't help trembling, I regretted it, I hated myself, the police took me to the scene to identify it, I saw the photos of Wanwan's death, I knew her fatal injuries at once, the forensic doctor couldn't accurately confirm the time of her death, so, I admit that I killed Wanwan, I was guilty from beginning to end, from the beginning of knowing her death, I didn't want to live, I'm not a good lawyer, but no matter how bad my legal literacy is, no matter how bad and arrogant I am, if I really want to live and be acquitted, I can't be so arrogant in court, and I can't be so uncooperative with the defense lawyer.

I just want the court to sentence me to death, to judge me publicly, to try the Xie family, to comfort the soul of the late heaven. I'm fed up with ......"

"I can't believe it, I left late and late, maybe people are like this, after I lose it, I will find out how important she is to me, my heart is empty, the whole person is lost, and my heart hurts so much that I can barely breathe. Wanwan was forced to death by me, and was forced to die by the Xie family, and I am indeed the murderer. ”

"I originally wanted to die with her, but the detention center was very strict, so I changed to a way of atonement, confessed to murder, ruined my reputation, let the court sentence a heavy sentence, and let the Xie family and I accept the abuse together."

"Grandpa will come to you to defend me, which is in my imagination, but I have also taken countermeasures, not cooperating with you, angering you, it is better for you to stop defending me. It's a pity that you're out of my control, and you've even managed to defend my innocence. ”

"The more I was released from prison without guilt, the more tormented I became. When I first entered the detention center, I would still dream until late, and later, I felt that even her face was a little blurry, I was scared and calm, and there was nothing in this world for me to be nostalgic for. My wife still has a child in her belly, and the Xie family will not be without a queen, I have been ruined like this, where is the qualification to live. ”

"I have thought of many ways to commit suicide, stabbing with a knife, the most soothing the guilt and resentment in my heart, I will want to see it sooner or later, I think of what I will look like after I die, I can't help but tremble with excitement."

"When I die, everything is over, and I'm fed up with the pain of being controlled by my grandfather, I know too many secrets of the Xie family, and I will never be able to climb up from the quagmire......"

"And one more sentence...... You and Su Yu are okay...... You are different from me and Sheng Wan, everything is different, it's just that Su Zhiguo is not a simple commodity, and you and Su Yu still have a long way to go. ”

The final payment was: Xie Shen in prison.
