Chapter 12: The New World
The next morning...... Zhou Yan woke up.
He himself was a little surprised that in the past three days, he had adapted to prison life, getting up at 7:25 every morning, packing up the bedding, and someone would bring breakfast.
Because the execution date is approaching, Zhou Yan does not have such activities as outdoor wind, and on the other hand, he does not have to work, he just stays in the cell 24 hours a day, but fortunately, the supporting facilities in this cell are good, the bed is soft enough, and the food is also very good.
There are still two days left before the date of his execution.
In fact, it would be more accurate to say that there are only 30 hours left. Tonight, you'll be taken out, take a shower, make a 20-minute phone call to your friends and family, have a la carte dinner, and say goodbye to the world at 9 o'clock the next day.
Therefore, what will happen to you in the end, you can only look at today.
Soon, breakfast was delivered, milk, bread, fried eggs, a few small persimmons, and a roasted ham sausage, and the breakfast of Western countries before rebirth should not be much better than this.
Zhou Yan picked up the dinner plate and ate slowly with plastic cutlery, but his eyes looked at the clock on the opposite wall through the iron window.
He didn't know if the lawyer, surnamed Zou, would be able to succeed...... He needs to wait.
10:40 a.m......
"Didi", the sound came from the electronic door in the hallway.
Zhou Yan's hands clenched involuntarily.
According to the normal schedule, lunch should be 11 o'clock, and then the prison guards will bring lunch over and take away the dishes that have been eaten in the morning.
But today, it's 10 minutes earlier.
Soon, the familiar prison guard came into Zhou Yan's sight, not holding a lunch plate in his hand.
"Your lawyer wants to see you....." the guard said, with a hint of 'what are you messing around'.
Zhou Yan suppressed his nervousness: "In addition to the lawyer, is there anyone else?" He asked.
The prison guard impatiently opened the cell door: "There are two more detectives." ”
With that, he opened the cell door, walked in, and took out handcuffs to cuff Zhou Yan's hands together.
"Uh...... Please wait a moment. Zhou Yan said.
"What?"
"I'll take the book......"
......
......
Soon, Zhou Yan was taken to the interrogation room again.
This is the third time he's been here.
And this time, there were three people sitting in this room.
One of them is Lawyer Zou, who is sitting on the side of the table at the moment, and the expression on his face is very calm and confident.
The remaining two are a man and a woman, and at this moment the man is looking at a few documents in his hand, his face is calm.
Next to this man, sitting was a girl, dressed maturely, but looking very young, so Zhou Yan couldn't tell her age for a while, but one thing is for sure, this girl is very beautiful, if only the eyes looking at her could be softer.
Seeing Zhou Yan walk in, Chen Hao raised his head, just glanced at it briefly, and then turned to Lawyer Zou: "You called me over because there was a little dust in front of the door?" ”
Lawyer Zou was not stunned at all, and nodded: "My client has such a request, I naturally try my best to handle it, and this is in line with the regulations." ”
Chen Hao sighed and put a few pieces of paper in his hand on the table.
At this moment, Zhou Yan had already sat opposite him.
Chen Hao looked at Zhou Yan......
"Well, now that I'm here, do you have anything to say to me about your suddenly restored memory, and the pinch of 'dust' in your memory?"
Chen Hao's tone was very calm, but he deliberately accentuated the word 'dust'.
It's an understatement of irony......
But what he didn't expect was that the first thing Zhou Yan said was...... "Uh, what do you call it?" ”
"What?" Chen Hao kept his eyebrows calm, and the corners of his eyebrows were a little tense.
It's no wonder, I think a few months ago, Zhou Yan's case was in charge of Chen Hao. For a long time, the two sat facing each other as they do now. At this moment, Zhou Yan actually put on a look of not knowing himself! Is this a provocation?
"Ahh He explained.
Chen Hao looked up and down at the kid sitting across from him, wondering, is this guy having memory recovery or amnesia?
But he didn't care, so he leaned back in his chair, crossed his hands, and put on a very stylish pose.
"I don't care what happens to your memory, anyway, what do you want to do now?"
"I want to see all the records of the case, and I want to go to the scene of the crime, which is the warehouse."
"Why?"
"I'm innocent!" Zhou Yan looked directly into the other party's eyes and said.
"Hehe, interesting, if you're innocent, then why are you raising an objection now?"
"I was sick before, mentally ill, my brain is not bright, and the medical records of other people's hospitals say it, it is genuine, and the child is not bullied!"
"......" Chen Hao was a little speechless for a while.
At this juncture, Mr. Zou smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, no matter when my client raises an objection, we are obliged to cooperate." ”
"It's been so long, and besides, he's going to be executed tomorrow."
"You also said that the execution will be carried out tomorrow, so today ...... I'll trouble Mr. Chen to accompany us. Lawyer Zou continued.
Chen Hao looked at Lawyer Zou, and then glanced at Zhou Yan with his peripheral vision, and was silent for a long time.
"Okay...... But you know, it's a waste of time! ”
Lawyer Zou smiled all over his face, lowered his eyebrows and owed a debt: "We are willing." ”
......
Two police cars, with their sirens on, drove unimpeded to the warehouse in the old town.
In a car sat Zhou Yan and lawyer Zou. In the other car, it was Lin Xi and Chen Hao.
At this time, Zhou Yan also got all the information of the case as he wished.
Photographs of the deceased's life and body, as well as the results of the investigation of the crime scene, are all on it.
During the time when the vehicle was driving, Zhou Yan read hungrily......
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the ticket arrived at its destination.
The car door was opened, and Zhou Yan stepped out of the car...... The noon sun was a little dazzling, and Zhou Yan squinted his eyes and felt the wind of this world.
It was warm.
Look around...... It's not a very spacious street, a bit like the main street of the village before it was reborn, and although it is asphalted, it has fallen into disrepair, is full of cracks, and has been covered with a layer of dust because of the sparse traffic.
In front of Zhou Yan, there are some low-rise shops, as long as you look at it, you can know that it has been some years, and most of them are closed, only a few are still open. At this time, the sun was abundant, but looking into the shops, it was very dim, and behind the counter near the door, several very old clerks probed their brains, as if they were expecting some excitement to have a while.
Obviously, this street is a bit old, a typical example of what was once prosperous, but is gradually forgotten by the changing city.
Looking up, over the low roof, you can see the towering modern buildings in the distance, and even from such a distance, you can still see rows of bright glass, reflecting the light above the air at a height of nearly 100 meters.
This is the first time since Zhou Yan was reborn to really see the world.
