Su Yu felt a tightness in her chest, as if there was a heavy stone pressing on her heart and lungs.

She lowered her eyes, her sockets moist, and swallowed her throat, which was a little dry.

Huo Ran's eyes were clear, and it was Mrs. Xie Shen's wet eyes that met her, and she opened her mouth: "Lawyer Huo, can I take a look?" ”

Su Yu's fingertips tightened subconsciously, Huo Ran glanced at her, and still gave the letter in his hand to Mrs. Xie Shen.

Su Yu's heart seemed to be bound by an invisible rope, and Xie Shen's last suicide note only mentioned his wife a few times, and it was only to state the matter between him and Sheng Wan.

Xie Shen was cruel to his wife, he didn't love her, he didn't even take her to heart, he never thought about her once, he didn't respect his marriage with her, cheated on Sheng Wan, made Sheng Wan pregnant, and even messed with Sheng Wan outside when his wife was pregnant for him.

In the end, he even committed suicide because of the grand evening, but he didn't even say a word to his wife.

Mrs. Xie Shen looked at Xie Shen's letter, pursed her lips tightly, her lips almost had no curvature, she held herself up, not letting herself collapse, but tears overflowed uncontrollably from her eyes.

She bit her lower lip, red blood oozing out.

The thin piece of paper shook in her hand.

No one can stand it, and her husband's suicide note describes his love with another woman, and his deep love and unforgettable love for another woman.

Mrs. Xie Shen choked up, her voice was choked, as if it was broken: "Xie Shen, you are so ruthless, you didn't think of me until you died, you didn't think of me and your child...... You're sorry for her, have you ever thought about it, you're sorry for me, why should I give you a baby, why...... What the hell am I for, why the hell am I putting up with so many ......"

She clenched the piece of paper, clenched it into a fist, and slammed it into her stomach.

Xie Lao's pupils contracted, and he hurriedly shouted: "What are you still doing in a daze!" Are they all dead! Stop the young lady! He yelled at Mrs. Xie Shen again: "You stop me, don't do stupid things, you have the only hope for my Xie family in your belly!" ”

Su Yu's breathing lasted a little, and everything in front of him was like a black humorous farce.

Old Xie's only hope now is the child in Mrs. Xie Shen's belly, Xie Shen is gone, and Mrs. Xie Shen's spiritual pillar has fallen.

And Xie Shen is a complete scumbag no matter which way you look at it.

*

Xie Shen's wife fainted because she was too emotional, and Xie Lao didn't have time to care about Huo Ran and Su Yu, and the footsteps of the doctors and nurses were hurried and chaotic.

Huo Ran put a mask on Su Yu and went downstairs with her.

Su Yu said softly: "The police estimated that for the Xie family's case, they should have been staring at Xie Shen very early, so they were able to catch Xie Shen as soon as they reported the case." ”

"Hmm." Huo Ran said, "The police wanted Xie Shen to confess, perhaps when they identified the crime scene, they intentionally or unintentionally revealed the details of the case, and it happened that Xie Shen wanted to make him confess, so he followed the clues given by the police and took the blame on himself, and it can be seen from the fact that he always changed his confession, and it can be seen that he has been lying all along." ”

Su Yu was a little embarrassed: "When Sheng Wan was here, Xie Shen treated her badly, he would be violent, would let her have a miscarriage, would humiliate her, and was willing to let her be a junior, but Sheng Wan committed suicide, but Xie Shen put on the appearance that he was a love saint, in order to punish himself, to make Xie Lao suffer, and to let the Xie family accept the trial, he led the sin to himself, and finally committed suicide in the same way as Sheng Wan, I don't know if it was stupid or stupid." ”

Huo Ran didn't say anything, he had already reached the first floor, Lu Yan didn't know where to go, Huo Ran wrapped Su Yu's hand in his palm and put it in the pocket of his coat.

Media reporters outside were still waiting, getting the first news, and the crowd was bustling.

Su Yu glanced back, and the cold wind blew, bringing the gloom of winter.

She thought, Xie Shen is indeed not a good person, it can even be said that he is a scumbag that is recognized by ordinary women, and he is not good to Sheng Wan, on the surface, he also has sufficient motives to kill, and even he has evidence of his presence, there are witnesses, and there is physical evidence, but no one thought that Sheng Wan was indeed not stabbed to death by him, and no one would have expected in advance that the story behind it would be like this.

Huo Ran inserted the car key and started the car, he glanced at Su Yu, and said lightly: "The facts you see, the facts I think and the real facts will never be the same. ”

*

In the next few days, Su Yu and Huo Ran were busy with the cases assigned by the court, the lawyers in these cases could not refuse, and each lawyer had a fixed quota allocation, and at the end of the year, there was a backlog of small cases, and Huo Ran and Su Yu had to travel to collect evidence.

Su Yu returned to the apartment, opened the wardrobe, and began to pack his luggage.

This time I went to a small county town, and I was going on a business trip, so Su Yu basically packed up professional clothes that were convenient for movement, mainly in high-end colors of black, white and gray, with flat boots.

She brought two suitcases, one for her luggage and one for dossier materials.

Aunt Lin pushed open the door, saw that she spread out a lot of clothes on the bed, and smiled: "You kid, you make such a mess of the bed, you go and pack the materials, and I will help you pack the luggage of the clothes." ”

Aunt Lin's hands and feet are neat, her movements are fast, and her thinking of organizing things is very clear.

She didn't ask Su Yu to know that Su Yu wanted simpler clothes, she was just like Su Yu's mother, warm and capable.

Su Yu bent his eyes: "Aunt Lin, I love you." ”

Su Yu is not good at packing up her clothes, but she is organized in an orderly manner, those mountains of information have been read by her many times, post-it notes of various colors have been pasted on them, and simple notes have been made, she specially found out the evidence and opinions she wrote last night, and put them on the top, and after she cleaned up, Aunt Lin also finished collecting her clothes, and hung up the dresses on her bed, and the whole room was clean again.

Su Yu hugged Aunt Lin's waist from behind and leaned on Aunt Lin's back coquettishly, warm and soft.

Aunt Lin touched her hand and asked gently, "What's wrong?" Have you been working hard lately? ”

"It's okay, I just think that I used to think things too simply, especially in criminal cases, I am very easy, easy to be instigated, hoping to help the victim find justice. It's just that after experiencing the recent case, I'm a little confused about the word justice, is public opinion justice? Isn't public opinion justice? Obviously a very simple thing, from different angles, it is two completely different sides. For example, Xie Shen treated Sheng Wan's mother badly, discriminated against Sheng Wan's family, and even refused to give compensation. Only now do we know that because Sheng Wan's mother is patriarchal and only regards Sheng Wan as a cash cow, even Sheng Wan's death, the Sheng family has to take the opportunity to make a big profit and eat human blood steamed buns to pave the way for Sheng Wan's younger brother. ”

Aunt Lin held her hand, Aunt Lin's hand was very dry, and the palm was warm and soft.

"Aunt Lin doesn't know the law, and she hasn't read much, so she can't help you, but seeing is not necessarily believing, I have heard this sentence, seeing may not be believing, those people on the Internet have not seen the scene of the murder, not to mention, they haven't even seen real evidence, relying on self-righteous conjecture, how can it be true?"

Aunt Lin held Su Yu's hand and turned around, her eyes were smiling, and the wrinkles at the end of her eyes looked so kind: "No matter what, Aunt Lin supports you." With her other hand, she pinched Su Yu's cheek affectionately, "Aunt Lin still likes your recent state, you work hard, you have been studying, you are positive, and the smile on your face is getting more and more." ”

Su Yu smiled coquettishly.

Aunt Lin comforted her: "Don't care too much about too many people's evaluations, most of the people don't understand the law, and the logic is clear, they just want to vent their dissatisfaction with life; Some people are your peers, and they scold people, but they just want to gain popularity; There are also some people who are simply not clear in their minds. ”

Su Yu was amused: "Aunt Lin, you scolded most of the people in the past." ”

After packing up her clothes, Aunt Lin also filled Su Yu's suitcase with cranberry biscuits she made and stuffed a lot of chocolates.

Su Yu carried her luggage into the trunk, bypassed the front of the car, and she got into the car.

Aunt Lin stood next to the car window and advised: "I have the necessary medicines in the box, I checked the county, the transportation and shopping are not very convenient, if you are hungry, eat some biscuits and milk, and when you get to the place, give me a call." ”

Su Yu said "um" and smiled: "Aunt Lin, I want to eat something delicious when I come back." ”

Aunt Lin happily responded.

*

When I arrived at the law firm and passed by the lounge, Su Yu glanced inside, many people were watching TV, and the financial lady who was familiar with Su Yu beckoned to Su Yu.

Su Yu saw that it was still early, so he walked in.

The financial lady said: "Wasn't there news a few days ago that Xie Shen committed suicide? But the Xie family has been covering up the news and has not responded positively, this morning the news suddenly broke out, Xie Lao was arrested by the police, and Xie Shen really committed suicide! ”

Su Yu was busy packing up his things all morning, and he hadn't read the news yet.

"It's just a little bad, many people attribute Xie Shen's death to his guilt for killing people, and then they began to accuse Lawyer Huo of defending the murderer's innocence, making black money with a clear conscience, saying that the murderer himself has a better conscience than Xie Shen." The young lady sighed, "Why do you say these people love to join in the fun?" ……”

Su Yu wrinkled his brows, didn't bother to talk to the financial lady, turned around and took a big stride, and walked towards Huo Ran's office.

Huo Ran had already packed his suitcase, and he glanced at her: "Packed up?" Let's go, just go on a business trip for three days. ”

"Hmm." Su Yu said, "Have you watched the news? ”

"Looked." Huo Ran put on a long black down jacket with a pure black suit inside, and while picking up the car keys on the table, he said lightly, "The police have arrested Xie Lao, this is a matter of time, and the police don't dare to wait too long." ”

"Hmm." Su Yu suddenly didn't want to say anything, she felt that she still cared too much about evaluation, and Huo Ran's state was much calmer than her.

It's just that neither of them expected that there would be media reporters squatting downstairs in the law firm.

Probably because Xie Shen died, Sheng Wan died, Xie Lao was arrested, and the only person who knew about this case was Huo Ran.

As soon as Huo Ran appeared, reporters rushed up with spears and cannons, and asked one question after another.

Huo Ran pursed the corners of his lips, and subconsciously blocked in front of Su Yu, his expression was a little cold.

The reporter asked, "Lawyer Huo, what do you think about Xie Shen's death?" ”

"Lawyer Huo, many people are very dissatisfied with the result of Xie Shen's acquittal, what do you think about this?"

"Lawyer Huo, Xie Shen was obviously acquitted, but he committed suicide again, did he find out his conscience and think that he should pay the price for Sheng Wan's death?"

"Lawyer Huo, if you defend someone who has committed the most heinous crimes, won't you feel guilty in your heart?"

"Lawyer Huo, do you know that Xie Shen is the real murderer?"

"Lawyer Huo, the public opinion thinks that Xie Shen should be sentenced to death, but you go against the will of the people, how do you feel?"

Huo Ran tightened the lines of the silhouette, his face was expressionless, but the reporters got closer and closer, his expression sank, and he protected Su Yu in his arms, but it was difficult to walk.

His silence seemed to fuel the prestige of the media reporters, whose questions became more and more acute and their voices became more and more harsh.

Huo Ran Meiyu was a little impatient, before he could speak, Su Yu's forehead was suddenly hit by a male reporter's microphone, she frowned in pain, and held back a small "hiss".

Huo Ran's dark eyes suddenly became cold, the ice floe was heavy, he lowered his eyes and looked at Su Yu's forehead, there was already a small piece of redness, the edge of the microphone was a little sharp, and there was a small piece of broken skin on her forehead, and the blood was faint.

Huo Ran's face was a little terrifying, he raised his eyelids and stared at the male reporter without saying a word, his eyes had already condensed a heavy coldness.

obviously didn't do anything, only such a look made the male reporter feel a chill down his spine.

All the reporters stopped asking questions and looked over.

Su Yu pursed her lips, a little embarrassed, and just wanted to say that she was fine.

Huo Ran's eyes were indifferent: "Apologize." ”

The male reporter was a little hesitant, maybe he didn't react yet, but a reporter next to him pulled down his sleeve, and he seemed to remember that the man in front of him was a very good lawyer, and no one could offend the lawyer.

What's more, it was indeed he who was wrong.

The male reporter lowered his head, and his voice was still a little trembling: "...... I'm sorry. ”

Huo Ran didn't have any expression on his face, he stretched his lips, and said coldly: "I still have 10 minutes, you can ask questions." ”

He didn't want to answer, but he was stuck here, so he might as well answer a few questions.

Su Yu raised her head and saw Huo Ran's jaw line, she thought, are these reporters going to be scolded back by Huo Ran?
